The mobile app allows inspectors to capture inspection data and generate reports directly from their mobile devices. 

Xaap is designed to help make the lives of inspectors, technicians, service managers, back-office teams, facility managers, and building owners easier. By streamlining the inspection process through a variety of smart application features, Xaap helps deliver accurate and efficient inspection reporting.

Features of Xaap

Key features include ready-to-use and customizable report templates, digital signature capture, barcoding, inventory management, a historical report repository, a deficiency dashboard, and an analytics dashboard. With a shared source of data, building teams can collaborate seamlessly, stay better coordinated and operate in sync.

Xaap empowers building and facility managers, inspectors, and technicians with powerful control and insights

In addition to providing more accurate and efficient inspection reporting, Xaap also empowers building and facility managers, inspectors, and technicians with powerful control and insights. This includes digital access to inspection reports and other facility documents 24/7, a centralized view of systems and compliance data, the ability to establish permissions, and the data that can be leveraged to increase efficiency, lower costs and improve safety and security.

Future offerings

Xaap plans to further evolve the platform offerings for the future, including features that allow users to schedule, dispatch and track inspections and repairs to help ensure inspections aren’t overlooked and deficiencies are addressed promptly.

As more data is gathered through the Xaap platform, insights from the dashboard will continue to improve and more accurately pinpoint emerging trends and KPIs.
