Life Safety Inspection App runs structured life safety inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each work area, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see life safety compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Life Safety Inspection App runs a structured life safety inspection covering exit access, travel distance, and egress width, emergency and standby lighting duration test, fire alarm and voice evacuation function, sprinkler and standpipe gauges and control valves, and smoke control and stairwell pressurisation, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, life safety findings live on paper and in chat. A life safety fault such as egress width reduced by storage or fit-out slips through. An audit then means rebuilding life safety evidence from folders.
Life Safety Inspection App keeps one record per life safety and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each life safety finding is tracked to verified closure. Life safety and code compliance officers see life safety completion and overdue actions across the health & safety portfolio. Every life safety record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Life Safety Inspection App?
A comprehensive life safety inspection covers the key areas that affect safety and compliance. Inspect life safety systems - egress, alarms, signage, and emergency readiness - with evidence and audit trails. Your inspection should include sections for exit access, travel distance, and egress width; emergency and standby lighting duration test; and fire alarm and voice evacuation function, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use Life Safety Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps life safety inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned life safety template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, work area, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the work area.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially egress width reduced by storage or fit-out, standby lighting below the required duration, control valves left closed or unsupervised, smoke control fans failing on test.
For every failed life safety item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the work area form. The work area report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does a Life Safety Inspection Cover?
A life safety inspection covers exit access, travel distance, and egress width, emergency and standby lighting duration test, fire alarm and voice evacuation function, sprinkler and standpipe gauges and control valves, smoke control and stairwell pressurisation, and occupant load and exit sign visibility. Life safety and code compliance officers capture a photo and a reading on each life safety point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the life safety round off. So every life safety record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

What Life Safety Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Life Safety work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Life Safety Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
You find out about a life safety problem from a complaint
There is no live view of life safety status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the work area is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of life safety status across sites
Life Safety problems surface as complaints, not as data
Life Safety risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of life safety completion and open issues
Life Safety risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter life safety results by site and date
Life Safety checks signed off on paper with no proof the work area was actually checked
A life safety inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the work area was actually checked, and whether egress width reduced by storage or fit-out, standby lighting below the required duration, control valves left closed or unsupervised, smoke control fans failing on test were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the work area passed.
Problem
Life Safety checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm egress width reduced by storage or fit-out, standby lighting below the required duration, control valves left closed or unsupervised, smoke control fans failing on test were actually inspected
Life Safety findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital life safety form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every work area check
Life Safety findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
The same life safety defect comes back every cycle
Egress width reduced by storage or fit-out, standby lighting below the required duration, control valves left closed or unsupervised, smoke control fans failing on test on the work area are fixed, then reappear weeks later. Each life safety defect is treated as fresh because nobody sees it is the third time this quarter. The work area root cause is never addressed.
Problem
Repeat life safety defects treated as new every time
No history tying findings to the same work area
Budget spent re-fixing the same work area problem
Solution
Full defect history per work area
Recurring issue detection flags repeat life safety problems
Root-cause life safety work prioritised by evidence
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Life Safety Inspection App check on a life safety inspection?
Life Safety Inspection App runs a structured life safety inspection covering exit access, travel distance, and egress width, emergency and standby lighting duration test, fire alarm and voice evacuation function, sprinkler and standpipe gauges and control valves, and smoke control and stairwell pressurisation. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so life safety and code compliance officers work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which life safety defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the life safety failures that matter most: egress width reduced by storage or fit-out, standby lighting below the required duration, control valves left closed or unsupervised, and smoke control fans failing on test. Left unchecked, a fault such as egress width reduced by storage or fit-out can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so life safety and code compliance officers fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Life Safety Inspection App support for life safety work?
Life Safety Inspection App keeps life safety checks aligned to NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, IBC means of egress, and local fire authority requirements. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, life safety and code compliance officers pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run life safety checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Life Safety Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete life safety checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So life safety and code compliance officers get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a life safety inspection was completed?
Every completed life safety inspection carries egress measurement photo, valve position photo, and alarm test record, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, life safety and code compliance officers can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
