The new inspection app, Spotter, reduces inspection times by 87%

July 1, 2015

Envoc, an award-winning full service digital agency, has announced the release of their latest product, Spotter. Spotter is a customizable mobile tablet inspection app designed to streamline a business’s inspection processes providing significant improvements in preventative maintenance and process controls. The first release includes compatibility with both iPad and Android tablets, with support for other operating systems coming in future updates.

For many companies, inspectors spend between 5-8 hours per inspection. By removing the need to carry and use clipboards, pens, paper, cameras, and recording devices, and then re-enter that information into a system of record, Spotter can cut that time down to less than an hour. Spotter uses built-in tablet functionality, such as the camera and microphone, to save time, money, and headaches.

With Spotter, inspection, controls, survey, and safety professionals are able to capture and use their valuable inspection and audit information easier than ever before. Envoc has also partnered with Xciel to provide companies with intrinsically-safe Class 1 Div 2 Android tablets and iPad cases for high-risk worksites that require it.

Spotter’s Key Features include:

  • Client managed inspection templates & questionnaires
  • Audio, video, and photo integration
  • Offline capability for remote locations
  • Real-time Inspection Information analysis via the Dashboard
  • Can import and export information to and from other systems
  • Standard and custom reporting to meet current reporting standards
  • Ideal for safety, compliance, process, audit, and controls management

Spotter has already been well-received by the media and clients alike. It has been featured Biz New Orleans’ Oil & Gas issue and Inspectioneering Journal. Although Spotter was just released, clients already include CTS, an Industrial Service Solutions company providing on-site inspections to the oil and gas industry, Quanex, a global manufacturer of energy-efficient window and door products, systems and solutions, and a Louisiana based inland marine company for work boat inspections. And, the feedback has been exceptional. “Spotter is REALLY impressive,” says Douglas  Hauck of Quanex Building Products. “It's obvious you guys have had a lot of feedback and implemented it, because there are features in here I didn't even know I needed until I saw them. It’s set to become a key part of our quality assurance program.”

Doug’s  comments echo that of all of the users, but to see for yourself why Spotter is receiving so much praise in such a short period of time, schedule a demo by visiting us at spotterinspectionapp.com, email us at spotter@envoc.com or call us at (225)590-5003.

Envoc looks forward to showing you how Spotter can streamline your inspection, survey and audit processes and create a better reality for your business.
