Used by park rangers to record the condition of playground equipment as part of a routine inspection, and to report items requiring maintenance, along with incidents of vandalism. The App generates a workflow incorporating photographs etc. and produces a reporting dashboard for management detailing the various inspections undertaken that highlight areas of concern etc.(b)Maintenance inspections of rainwater outlet. Used by the OPW’s architectural team to record blockages etc. affecting rainwater outlets.(c)Property maintenance inspections. Used by construction professionals to inspect the building fabric at properties managed by the OPW.
