Completion Walks

What is it?

Management of completion inspection walks. Allows planning, executing, and documenting area inspections with real-time GPS capture, photos, and checkpoints.

When to use it

To carry out quality inspections on site: verify the degree of completion of an area, document defects found during the walk, or validate that previous issues have been corrected.

Creating a walk

When you plan a walk the essential information is a descriptive title (such as "Floor 3 Inspection"), a description of what the inspection aims to check, and the location — the project area or zone you'll inspect. Optionally you can set the walk type (final, intermediate, control…), a scheduled date, the trade to inspect, and the attendees who will take part.

The walk lifecycle

A walk moves through a few states from planning to completion:

• It starts as a Draft, planned but not yet started and still editable.
• When the on-site inspection begins it becomes In Progress, with GPS capture active and checkpoints being added.
• Once finished it is marked Completed, the closing GPS is recorded, and it becomes read-only.
• If the inspection doesn't take place, the walk can be set to Cancelled.

Checkpoints

During a walk you record checkpoints — the individual inspection points captured along the route. Each checkpoint carries a note describing what was observed at that spot, a photo taken with the camera or chosen from the device gallery, and the GPS coordinates captured automatically at the moment it is recorded. A checkpoint can be Active, Resolved, or Cancelled.

What you can do

You can create a walk to plan a new inspection, start it with an automatic GPS capture at the beginning, and add checkpoints with a note, photo, and real-time GPS as you go. When you finish, completing the walk records a closing GPS point. You can also review the full history of checkpoints recorded during a walk and filter walks by status, location, trade, or a text search.
