Exalon QMS Module is two-fold, with a mobile inspection application and compiling of the information into the system to generate comprehensive management reports.
Exalon Mobile GPS Inspection application includes the following features:
- Scans for the lot number nearest to the on-site inspector
- The beneficiary’s details appear when the inspector enters the lot number
- If the inspector is unsure about the lot number, he can instead use the beneficiary’s identity number to access the associated lot number
- Any previous inspections completed on a particular lot will show all comments (or any warnings) from the previous inspection
- Inspector “signs-in” to validate inspections – his name will appear on all of the reports to ensure accountability
- XY coordinates are recorded at the time of inspection to ensure that the inspector is on-site
- Navigation facility will help the inspector to locate a lot
- Option to mark a site with “Site with Query” to warn of a problem that may warrant interruption of further building
- If required, the volume of foundation required can be calculated on a tablet by entering the measurements if fields are provided
- Captures photos saved with corresponding lot numbers
- Fields available for comments (or reasons for failed inspections)
- Digital signatures on the device, if required
QMS Features Specific to the Contractor Module:
- The builder can allocate specific lots and structures to his sub-contractors
- With a few simple clicks, the builder can generate and print the contracts with his sub-contractors with all the necessary pre-populated information (lot number, subby’s details, price, structure)
- The inspections are done according to a digital check-list on an Android tablet while recording the GPS coordinates to ensure inspections are done on the correct site
- Inspection lists and checks can be edited for any specific project
- The passed contractor’s inspections become an inspection request to the engineer and remain as an inspection request until the engineer has passed the inspection
- If a site has not had an engineer’s inspection in 2 weeks, the site appears in the “Dormant Site Report” so that no site becomes stagnant
- Invoices can be generated on behalf of sub-contractors for work completed and material used
- Multiple reports are available to management to keep track of the project: daily inspections (according to projects, inspector, date, or structures), daily contracts generated, progress map, etc.
- If required, claims can be easily generated by pulling all the engineer’s passed inspections not yet claimed, allocating them a claim number, and printing the D6 and P4 documents
