add Radon Equipment tracking feature
complete

One big problem we struggle with, as a multi-inspector firm, is knowing where all our radon boxes are physically located. We have 10 boxes right now and 3 inspectors. With the 48 hour test required, we have to keep track of how many boxes each inspector has and how many boxes are at customer locations at any given time. When a new customer calls and wants to add a radon test, our office staff has to know if we have an available box to set at a house, who has it, and who can set it. We are constantly juggling boxes around, and we just a big white board to track where each box is at any given time. But the white-board method is a pain.
I know you guys are talking about adding the ability to add the radon order to an inspection order, but have you thought about any tracking feature to keep track of the inventory?
I'm researching equipment/asset tracking software tools now, but would prefer this to be a feature within ISN. We would be willing to pay for this added feature...

We put our radons under our radon tab in the order. It would be nice if we could pull a report for current "radon orders to be able to see where our radons are for sets/pickups

Need radon machine tracking and a letter that is tied to it that is sent out when 48 hours are near or up to coordinate pick up with the list or buying agent.

Add a mapping and data tracking system for radon monitor drop offs and pick ups, and calibration info

Somethings that shows/tracks radon monitors have been started/picked up/and what inspector has a monitor. Monitors also need to have various calibrations yearly ,6 months and after every 10 test it would be great to track monitors right in the isn... we currently have a mess keeping track of all this and it's a huge hassle.

Interactive pin drop on Route my Inspections
J
Johnr
Hello,
I wrote a few weeks back about adding a pin to the "route my inspection" page to track where our radon monitors are being dropped of. Is there anyway to receive feedback on whether this feature addition is in progress or will not be added? If not, we need to seek an alternate program to track our daily routes and radon pick-ups / drop-offs.

Radon machine tracking

Hello ISN Masters,
I have a suggestion for ISN mobile that would be a real life-saver. It would track radon machines.
We currently have 6 radon machines and 5 inspectors who set radons. Keeping track of where the machines are is labor-intensive and cumbersome and sometimes very confusing. Here is what I propose:
- add a page to the current ISN mobile app
- addresses that are associated with radon show up similar to the weekly calendar view- maybe 3 days previous history, day of, and 3 days looking forward (could be a tab on th "my inspections" page under "last two months")
- addresses are listed by day and have color coded block with Inspector color, PLUS a radon color- for example green for not yet set, yellow for set and not picked up, and red for set and ready for pickup, black for set, picked up; for those already set, date/time the 48 hrs expires
- to alter, inspector could press address to open next page, which would have client/realtor info, call people, and also three SELECTABLE fields: field for radon being set or radon being picked up; clock field for time of set/pickup as appropriate; and machine number (we number ours 1-6, for example, not serial #s)
- this data would feed into an ISN page that our office manager (or any of us) could see on the computer which had a map of the radons that are scheduled, set, or ready for pickup
- an internal timer/clock feature would turn the radons red once ready for pickup and would send a text message to office manager and inspector at the expiration of the 48 hours
- perhaps could also have a tie-in w/ISN calendar that populates the calendar with the radon pickups that "time out" at the 48-hr point
This may be difficult- I don't know. However, we lost track of two radon machines this week, and one of those mistakes cost me $500. The other one may cost me future business with that realtor. We will try to come up with a better internal tracking system, but as we grow this will only get more difficult.
Appreciate any help, and we need it. Please let me know if you have any questions about this suggestion.
Thanks!
BTW- the map feature you set us up with has been EXTREMELY helpful for us in reducing drive times between inspections and making our schedules more efficient. It has kept us on-time and able to handle more inspections, which is money in the bank. Thanks!
