"All other systems we have evaluated lacked the required flexibility for real world industrial applications.


ProjectCompanion provides a solution where we now can customize the quality control process of each individual project, handle thousands of inspection items, and manage and close several hundred deficiencies in each building we inspect. With the mobile solutions, we can perform inspections, as well as report time and expenses effectively on site, which reduces administrative costs.


Further, the quality control collaboration web makes it possible to delegate all quality deficiencies to the responsible sub-contractor, and follow up on progress. With ProjectCompanion, we can make sure that all quality problems are eliminated before the house owner accepts the buildings."
