Scheduling can be a real headache, especially in the fast-paced world of Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC). Our research shows that a whopping 36% of TIC companies are still relying on manual scheduling processes, leading to wasted time, increased costs, and frustrated teams. Think about it: multiple project managers juggling spreadsheets, inspectors coordinating their own schedules, and complex considerations like travel time, skill sets, and even mandatory rest periods. It's a recipe for disaster!

18% of TIC companies struggle with manual data input… Why is this still an issue? Integration should make operations smoother, but some TIC companies still rely on manual data input to bridge gaps between disconnected systems. This slows down processes, increases errors, and adds unnecessary admin work. Take #scheduling, for example. Some companies have a recurring scheduling feature, yet they manually input job dates instead of automating them. Others have had full-time employees dedicated to copy-pasting vendor data from PDFs into internal systems, a process that should have been eliminated years ago.

One reason we maintain less than 0.1% complaints? It’s all about how we support inspection teams. At Checkfirst, we’re not an inspection company but we’re the #tools behind the inspections. And how we approach this has been key to the results our customers see in the field.  In the TIC space, we’ve often seen the same traditional setup: inspectors on the ground and managers in a central office, disconnected from day-to-day operations. This gap frequently leads to delays, errors, and missed opportunities for improvement. Our approach flips the script. With our fully remote #team spread across five countries, we’ve built a suite of AI-powered tools to bridge this gap and keep inspectors and supervisors aligned, no matter where they are. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰: ✔️ 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 helps optimize schedules, adapt to last-minute changes, and proactively address risks. ✔️ 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 streamlines defect detection and reporting, freeing inspectors to focus on the critical aspects of their work. ✔️ 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 ensures documentation and assessments are accurate, compliant, and always audit-ready. But even the best tools need the right mindset to succeed. That’s why we empower inspection teams to be multi-skilled, blending technical expertise with data-driven insights from our platform. This combination ensures they can handle challenges confidently and effectively. One challenge? Getting companies to shift from traditional workflows to this tech-first approach. But the results speak for themselves: fewer errors, faster processes, and more confident teams on the ground.  If you’re ready to elevate your inspections and create a smarter workflow, let’s talk. Checkfirst is here to help shape the future of inspections. #tic #inspection #trustbutcheckfirst #checkfirst

Collaboration can make or break inspection workflows, and our research shows that 36% of TIC companies are struggling with accessing and utilizing job history effectively.     Imagine working on a massive site with detailed floor plans, or even CAD files, where findings need to be seamlessly integrated back into existing blueprints. It sounds simple but often becomes a logistical challenge. Historical site data can sometimes help, but if it's outdated or inaccurate, relying on it could risk #compliance issues or repeat past mistakes.    Take jobs like corrosion under insulation (CUI) in the North Sea, for instance. Inspection data from contractors often piles up but isn’t utilized effectively. If findings were better tracked and translated directly into repair schedules, it would save significant time and prevent reactive fixes. Add to this the need for specialist equipment and containers, and you’re looking at a logistical maze.    Even predictive maintenance is underutilized. Knowing a particular asset might need repairs based on past issues could save time, but connecting all these dots often gets lost in scattered documents and siloed systems.    𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 Checkfirst 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐟𝐮𝐥: - 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 ensures historical data is clean, accurate, and easily accessible.  - 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 simplifies turning inspection findings into actionable work orders, including planning for specialist equipment.  - 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 integrates findings into CAD files and detailed reports effortlessly.    With Checkfirst, collaboration becomes smoother, and job history transforms into a powerful #tool for smarter decisions.    Let’s make it work for you! #TIC #jobhistory #collaboration #inspection #trustbutcheckfirst #checkfirst

Keeping engineers accredited is a constant challenge in the TIC industry, and it’s something 18% of companies struggle with, according to our research.    It’s not just a regulatory requirement but an ongoing commitment that demands extensive site audits, detailed documentation, and proof of competence, year after year.   For many companies, this means conducting up to 150 site audits annually just to maintain inspectors' authorization. Then there’s the added responsibility of demonstrating specific expertise for accreditations, which requires inspectors to be authorized for specialized tasks such as pipework, vessels, or high-pressure steam systems. It’s a huge administrative load that can take focus away from more important work.   At Checkfirst, we understand how overwhelming this process can be. That’s why we’ve built tools to make it simpler:   - 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 centralizes accreditation records and tracks compliance with ease.  - 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 ensures that audits are planned efficiently, saving time and resources.  - 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 simplifies data collection and reporting, making it faster to demonstrate competence and complete audits.    By reducing administrative headaches, our #tools help companies focus on building expertise and driving #innovation instead of being buried in paperwork.    Accreditation doesn’t have to be a burden. With Checkfirst, it becomes a process that works for you, not against you.   Let’s connect to discuss how we can help lighten the load and keep your team moving forward. #tic #engineeraccreditations #trustbutcheckfirst #checkfirst

A staggering 27% of TIC companies report challenges with disconnected, siloed software systems.    These inefficiencies may not seem like a big deal at first, but they create ripple effects that slow everything down.    Inspection platforms are great for what they’re designed to do—managing inspections. But they rarely integrate with #CRM tools or invoicing systems. This leaves companies piecing together workflows manually, transferring data from one system to another, and wasting hours on processes that should be seamless.    One business leader shared how their systems “track everything but connect nothing,” creating barriers between quoting, inspections, and invoicing. For smaller companies, this challenge is even more pronounced! They often lack the budget to scale with integrated tools or build something in-house.    This disconnect isn’t just inconvenient; it’s holding companies back from scaling efficiently.   At Checkfirst, we tackle this head-on by creating tools that make integration effortless:   ✔️ 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 ensures workflows are synced, from planning to execution.  ✔️ 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 makes inspection results actionable by seamlessly feeding them into your processes.  ✔️ 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 keeps compliance data centralized and easy to access.    When your #tools communicate, your team communicates better too. Imagine a streamlined workflow where every step from #quote to #invoice is connected and efficient. That’s what integrated solutions make possible.    Let’s rethink what’s possible together. Checkfirst isn’t just about inspections; it’s about giving businesses the clarity and control they need to grow.    Ready to simplify and thrive?
