QR code inspection software

QR code inspection software that starts every inspection at the work

RTI is QR code inspection software for construction: each room, unit, floor, zone or piece of equipment gets a QR label, and scanning it opens that point's checklist, where it is, and every inspection it has had. Labels print from the browser on US Letter sheets.

  • One tag, one place, one checklist
  • Labels in three sizes
  • Full history on every tag
1 of 2 photos attached: the submit stays locked and says what is missing.
The challenge

Why inspection logs lose track of the place

  • Typed locations

    “Level 2, east side” means something different to everyone who writes it, and nobody can roll it up.

  • The closest-looking form

    The crew opens a form from a list and picks whichever one looks nearest to the work in front of them.

  • History in a binder

    The last inspection of the same room is in an email, a binder or someone's camera roll.

With RTI

  1. The label names the place
  2. The scan opens its checklist
  3. Its history is on the tag

Each label encodes a link to its own tag, so the record starts from the thing in front of the crew instead of from a menu.

From label to record

Create, print, scan, inspect, look back

  1. Create the tags

    Add tags one at a time, as a numbered run of up to 500, or by pasting a list of names. Each tag has a project and a checklist, and can sit in a site, building, floor and zone tree.

  2. Print the labels

    Print a sheet in one of three sizes, from 2 by 2 inches to 4 by 3 inches. Each label carries the QR code, the tag number and the project name, and a tag with no live checklist stays off the sheet until it has one.

  3. Scan to start

    Scan with the phone's camera or RTI's own scanner, which has a torch where the phone supports one, zoom and tap to focus, or type the tag number printed on the label. The tag's screen shows where it is, its status and its checklist.

  4. Inspect through the gate

    The Photo Gate

    Start inspection opens the checklist. Photos taken in the browser are stamped with the tag number and the time, and the submit stays locked until every required photo is attached.

  5. Look back at any place

    The tag's page keeps every inspection of it, with the reviewer's notes and every photo. The Tags page rolls each place up into approved, in review, rework and not inspected.

What it doesn’t do

  • A tag opens only for signed-in members of your workspace. Anyone else who scans it is asked to sign in, and a tag from another workspace shows as not found.
  • A tag carries one checklist. There are no recurring or scheduled inspections and no maintenance plans.
  • RTI does not sell labels or print to label printers. Sheets print from the browser on US Letter, on the stock you choose.
  • There are no NFC tags, and photo location is off by default. When an administrator turns it on, coordinates are recorded, not checked against the site.
Before you buy anything

What to test before you tag a job

Count the screens from scan to first question

Scan a label on the demo and count the screens before the first checklist item. A scan that drops the crew on a menu has not saved them anything.

Ask what the label is tied to

A QR code that opens a blank form only saves typing. One tied to a specific room, unit or piece of equipment carries the location and the right checklist with it.

Ask who can open a tag

Decide whether a scanned label should open for anyone with a phone or only for your own people. Inspection records usually belong behind a sign-in.

Scan a tag that has history

Scan a place that has been inspected before. You should see its past inspections, with their photos and the reviewer's decision, without searching for them.

Use cases

Three moments it answers

  • Use case 1

    A new crew member

    When someone new scans a tag on their first day, the screen shows where it is and which checklist to run, so nobody has to explain which form goes with which room.

  • Use case 2

    A retired checklist

    When a tag's checklist has been archived, its label stays off the print sheet, so no sticker goes up that would open to nothing.

  • Use case 3

    No signal in the core

    When the crew scans a tag in a stair core with no signal, RTI's scanner opens it from the phone, and the finished inspection waits in the queue until signal returns.

Questions about QR code inspections

7 answers

What is QR code inspection software?
QR code inspection software puts a QR label on each thing that gets inspected, so scanning the label opens the right checklist for that place and files the result against it. In RTI a tag can be a room, a unit, a floor, a zone or a piece of equipment.
What is printed on each label?
The QR code, the tag number and the project name. Sheets print from the browser on US Letter in three sizes: 2 by 2 inches (20 a sheet), 3 by 2 inches (10 a sheet) and 4 by 3 inches (6 a sheet). The print page suggests weatherproof vinyl; RTI does not supply labels.
Can someone outside our company scan a tag?
A scan opens a tag only for a signed-in member of the workspace it belongs to. Anyone else is asked to sign in, and to members of other workspaces the tag shows as not found. On the Company plan, owners see approved work through the client portal instead.
Does a scan work with no signal?
Yes, with RTI's own scanner, for tags the phone has already loaded. While online, RTI keeps up to 5,000 tags and the active checklists on the phone, and a finished inspection waits in a queue until signal returns.
How many tags can we create?
Neither plan limits tags. Crew covers one active project and Company up to ten, with unlimited people on both. Tags can be added one at a time, as a numbered run of up to 500, or by pasting a list.
Is each scan written to the audit trail?
No. The tamper-evident activity log records the inspections a scan leads to, submitted, approved or sent back, with the tag number on each entry. Opening a tag is not an entry.
Does it use GPS to prove the crew was there?
No. Photo location is off by default. When an administrator turns it on, each photo records the phone's coordinates, but RTI does not check them against the site. The tag ties the record to the place; the photos show the work.

Tag your next floor and scan it

RTI gives every inspection point a QR label printed from the browser, and the scan opens that point's checklist, its status and every inspection it has had.
