How do I track building compliance using SiteSurvey?

Use SiteSurvey to record compliance inspections, flag non-conformances, assign remedial actions, and maintain an audit trail across your property portfolio.

SiteSurvey tracks building compliance by providing a structured process for recording inspection outcomes, flagging non-conformances, and linking each finding to a remedial action. Compliance audit forms are built with pass, fail, or not applicable outcomes for each check, and conditional logic ensures that a failing answer automatically prompts the operative to record the nature of the issue and attach supporting photographs.

All completed compliance inspections are stored in SiteSurvey with a full audit trail, including the operative who completed the form, the date and time of submission, and the GPS location of the device. This creates the documented evidence base needed for regulatory inspections, client reporting, and internal governance purposes.

Managers can view compliance status across individual buildings or the full portfolio through the web portal. Outstanding non-conformances are visible at a glance and can be converted into follow-up tasks with an assigned owner and due date. Automatic notifications alert the responsible person when a new action is raised or a deadline is approaching.

Repeating the same compliance audit form over time builds a compliance history for each building. This allows FM managers and property owners to identify recurring problem areas, demonstrate improvement over time, and produce evidence of due diligence for insurance purposes, lease renewals, or statutory submissions.

  1. 1

    Build the audit form

    Create compliance audit forms with pass, fail or not applicable outcomes for each check. Conditional logic ensures a failing answer prompts the operative to record the issue and attach supporting photographs.

  2. 2

    Record inspections on site

    Completed inspections are stored with a full audit trail including the operative, submission date and time, and GPS location. This creates the documented evidence base for regulatory inspections and internal governance.

  3. 3

    Convert findings into actions

    Outstanding non-conformances are visible at a glance in the web portal and can be converted into follow-up tasks with an owner and due date. Automatic notifications alert the responsible person when actions are raised or deadlines approach.

  4. 4

    Build a compliance history

    Repeat the same audit form over time to build a compliance history for each building. Use it to identify recurring problem areas, demonstrate improvement and evidence due diligence for insurance, lease renewals or statutory submissions.
