Inspections that end in a fix, not a report
Most inspection tools are very good at producing documents. The expensive gap is what happens to a failed line after the walk ends.
The problem. A walk gets completed, a PDF gets emailed, and the six items that failed become somebody's intention. Nobody owns them, nothing has a due date, and the next walk rediscovers the same conditions as new findings. The inspection ran perfectly and changed nothing.
How DutySeal handles it. Templates are authored once and run at every location, with photo or confirmation required on the steps where evidence matters and optional GPS on the completion. A failed item opens a corrective action with an assignee and a due date, or escalates straight to a work order against the asset and its preferred vendor. Nothing closes without proof.
What changes. Recurrence becomes visible, because the third occurrence of a finding is linked to the first two rather than filed as new. Overdue corrective actions surface by site. And when someone asks for twelve months of history on one building, the answer is an export instead of a week of email.
What makes it stick
Proof on the steps that matter
Mark specific lines photo-required rather than all of them, so the walk stays fast and the evidence stays credible.
A failure gets an owner
Failed items open corrective actions with assignees and due dates, or become work orders routed to a vendor.
One template, every site
Compliance packs and custom templates are defined centrally and synced, so a new location inherits the standard.
History you can hand over
Completion, findings, photos, and closures export per location and period for auditors, insurers, and owners.

Questions we get
Can we bring our own inspection templates?
Yes. Compliance packs give you a starting point for common site types, and you can build templates from scratch or edit a pack until it matches how you actually walk a building. Templates are versioned centrally so improving one improves every site running it.
Do inspectors need a signal to complete a walk?
The phone flow tolerates poor connectivity and syncs when it returns, which matters in mechanical rooms, basements, and early-stage sites. Photos and completions keep the time they were captured rather than the time they uploaded.
What is the difference between a corrective action and a work order?
A corrective action is the follow-up on a failed check — someone owns it, it has a due date, and closing it requires verification. A work order is a job of work, usually with a scope and often assigned to a vendor. A failed item can become either, and heavier findings usually become both.
Can contractors run inspections too?
Vendors get scoped access to jobs assigned to them and complete the checklist against that job with proof. They see their own work and nothing else.
