Simplify QA/QC inspections

Start an OpenSpace 360° capture on-site as soon as you begin running through your quality control checklists. Without any extra effort on your part, you’ve produced backup documentation—a complete visual record of everything you saw on the walk. For easy reference, add a link to the capture on your checklist. If you need to answer a question later or verify an item, pull up your capture and navigate the 360° view and easily find what you need. For example, after walls have been closed up, you can use OpenSpace to verify if insulation or backing was installed in the proper location.

Easily create and manage issues or failed items on a checklist with OpenSpace. When you need to flag a correction as you’re going through your checklist, tap the Field Notes button in the OpenSpace app, snap a photo, mark it up, and add details like comments and status. Then assign the note to the person who needs to address the issue. OpenSpace automatically timestamps and pins these notes to your floor plan—all you need to do is move on to the next item. If you set up Zones on your project, OpenSpace tags each Field Note you create with the Zone name they’re in for easy filtering. After your walk, generate a Field Note PDF report, including comments and images, to share with responsible team members.

If you need to conduct a QA/QC walk for a project, but you’re on the go or at another site, OpenSpace has you covered. Pull up your 360° capture from your desk and virtually walk the site as if you were at the job. Just like during an on-site inspection, it’s simple to use Field Notes to call out items that need to be addressed. You can track all communication in your Field Notes making it easy to check on the status of issues, all the way through resolution.

If you’re using BIM models on your project, use BIM Compare on-site or in the office for quick visual checks to verify all items are installed and in the right location. With OpenSpace BIM+, you can even overlay a model element (like a sewer line) on the 360° image side of the viewer (rather than trying to visualize the overlay in your head) to inspect further.

Use OpenSpace Air to bring aerial imagery into your QA/QC workflows—a fast, visual way to confirm work is progressing as planned. With overlays, you can superimpose design plans onto drone maps to spot misalignments or missing elements. Split screen comparisons let you compare up to four different time points or overlay drawings to verify installations.
