Keep preventive maintenance on schedule across every site. Technicians complete planned checks on a phone or tablet, record readings and photos, and log defects found during the visit, so you can prove each task was done and every issue was followed up.
Planned checksOverdue alertsReadings and photosVerified closure
The Preventive Maintenance App turns your maintenance plan into scheduled checks for each asset, from air handling units and pumps to fire doors and lifts. Technicians see what is due, complete the checklist on site with readings and photos, and sign it off, so the visit is recorded when it happens rather than written up later.
Defects found during a planned visit do not get lost: each one becomes a corrective action with an owner and due date, and deferred work stays visible until it is closed with evidence. Managers see completion rates, overdue tasks, and repeat defects by site, and where you use a CMMS for work orders and parts, findings can be passed across through an integration.
What the App Should Cover
A preventive maintenance record should show the asset and its location, the task and its due date, the checks completed with readings, photos of anything found, the technician's sign-off, any defects raised as corrective actions, and deferred work still to be closed, so a manager can see at a glance whether the plan is on track.
How to Use Preventive Maintenance App
Preventive maintenance works when service visits actually happen on time. Follow these steps for each service visit:
Set up recurring checks for each asset with the right checklist and frequency.
Scan the asset's QR tag on site to open the due checklist and its history.
Complete the checks and record readings and photos.
Log any defect as a corrective action with an owner and due date.
Sign off the visit and review overdue tasks and open defects on the dashboard.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a preventive maintenance app?
It is a mobile app that keeps planned maintenance on schedule and records each visit as it happens. With InspectWrk, every asset has recurring checks with due dates. Technicians scan the asset's QR tag, complete the checklist with readings and photos, and sign it off. Anything they find becomes a corrective action with an owner. Managers see what is due, done, and overdue, so the maintenance plan is followed rather than just written down, and the evidence is there when someone asks for it.
How are schedules and overdue tasks handled?
You set checks for each asset by frequency, such as weekly, monthly, or yearly, using the checklist that fits the asset. The app shows technicians what is due at each site, and tasks that pass their due date are flagged as overdue and can escalate to a manager. Dashboards show completion rates and overdue work by site, so gaps in the plan are visible early instead of being discovered at an audit or after a breakdown has already happened. Frequencies can be changed as experience shows what each asset needs.
What happens when a technician finds a defect?
The defect is logged against the asset with a photo and a note, and becomes a corrective action with an owner and a due date. The owner gets reminders, and overdue actions escalate. The action closes only when the fix is recorded with evidence, such as a photo or a new reading. Deferred work stays visible until it is done, so a problem found on one visit is not simply rediscovered on the next one, and managers can see how long each defect stayed open.
Does it replace our CMMS?
No. InspectWrk covers the inspection side of preventive maintenance: scheduled checks, readings, evidence, and follow-up on defects. It does not manage spare parts, purchasing, labour costs, or maintenance contracts. Where you already run a CMMS for work orders and parts, findings can be passed to it through an integration, so nothing is retyped. Many teams use InspectWrk as the on-site record of what was checked and keep a CMMS for planning and stores. That way the maintenance plan and the evidence of each visit stay connected.
Can we run preventive maintenance across several sites?
Yes. The same checklists and schedules can be used at every site, so completion and defect rates compare directly. Technicians and contractors see only the sites and assets assigned to them, while managers see every site on one dashboard. Reports show completion, overdue tasks, and repeat defects by site or asset type, which helps decide where to add resources or change a maintenance frequency based on what the records actually show. New sites can start from the same templates, so the standard is consistent from day one.
