When it comes to inspection reporting, facilities managers and building chiefs cannot afford mistakes. That’s why the most trusted fire and life safety vendors turn to one company for accuracy and compliance: BuildingReports (BR). The Georgia based business has established itself as the premier inspection reporting company by conducting over 6 million inspections (and counting), and servicing more than 900,000 buildings, effectively representing 300+ million devices nationwide.
Manual inspections are frustrating, time-consuming, and more prone to errors. The benefits of using BR are ample: improve the safety of your facilities, ensure compliance, increase accuracy, improve accessibility, and more. With the right fire and life safety service vendor, getting started with BuildingReports is easy. And, when you use BR, you can expect highly detailed, yet easy-to-understand documentation regarding all safety and compliance issues: identification of deficiencies, full code explanations, The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) editions for code referencing, floor plans, and a live archive of your entire NFPA reports suite that’s mobile accessible.
BuildingReports provides online and mobile inspection software to help commercial facilities ensure safety and code compliance. While some project managers or facilities directors may assume that such software is excessive or unnecessary, the truth is that BR is an essential tool that every company should utilize if they are concerned about maintaining compliance and safety.
As the person in charge of checking fire and life safety systems and ensuring your facilities are up to code, you must recognize that manual inspecting is antiquated and simply not as reliable as what BuildingReports has to offer. By working with 900 of the most experienced and respected service companies, BR has your best interests in mind.
One of the core benefits of BuildingReports is that it simplifies inspection management for end-users and Authority Having Jurisdictions (AHJ) alike. As a result, it is the largest and most comprehensive online NFPA reporting platform in the world. It allows you to view reports anytime from any device with an internet connection. You can quickly review discrepancies, approve repairs or replacements and easily forward reports to AHJs or other important stakeholders.
Additionally, BR offers numerous advantages over other reporting services/methods:
With hundreds of different devices and systems on the market that are mandated by local fire code and building officials, the inspection process can be complex and time-consuming. In addition, standards organizations, such as DNV and TJC, require additional test and inspection frequencies. BuildingReports offers inspection solutions for every inspection category and simplifies the process, while satisfying the complexities of inspection compliance.
Taking advantage of BuildingReports’ powerful software starts by hiring one of the 900 service companies in their network. Next, all you need is an internet connected device. Reports can be accessed by any mobile device or desktop workstation/laptop with an internet connection. Once you receive your login credentials from your fire and life safety vendor, or BR, you can login via a standard web browser or by phone application to access your reports.
Using the ScanSeries® online inspection reporting app, you will have access to a variety of reporting solutions depending on your specific industry and needs:
BR’s software suite is easy to install and use. And no matter what type of device you own, you are covered — BR is supported on iOS®, Android™, Windows Mobile® and PalmOS®.
The most powerful inspection software in the world is useless if it does not provide detailed and accurate data. Fortunately, BuildingReports’ inspection suite has the ability to generate comprehensive information for all of your fire and life safety systems.
When you use BuildingReports’ software, you can expect:
If you are already using BuildingReports at your facilities, be sure to login after a recent deficiency service is complete to review report tag statuses and corrective notes.
