Facility maintenance walkthroughs

Turn the monthly walkthrough into tickets your team can act on.

One person walks the building with a phone. PunchScope turns the photos into categorized tickets with a priority, a due date and a fix, then sends the report to the maintenance team. Next month, open tickets are checked again.

  • No floor plans required

The problem

A monthly walk is only worth it if the findings get fixed.

Walking a building is the easy part. Turning a hundred photos into work orders, and remembering to look again, is where it falls apart.

The walk happens, or it doesn't
A scheduled walk with an owner, an email before it is due and an overdue flag on the dashboard.
Photos stay in a camera roll
Every photo becomes a ticket with a category, a priority, a due date and a plain-language fix.
Reports are typed up days later
The report is built for you and goes to the maintenance team in one click.
Nobody knows what got fixed
Open tickets are re-checked each walk, so you see new, still open and fixed, with before and after photos.

How a walk works

Walk, ticket, report, re-check.

  1. 1

    Schedule the walk

    Monthly, weekly or quarterly. The person assigned gets the link by email before it is due.

  2. 2

    Walk it with a phone

    A guided, room-by-room checklist. Photograph what you see and add a voice or text note.

  3. 3

    Photos become tickets

    AI sorts each one by category, sets a priority and a due date, and writes the fix.

  4. 4

    One click to the team

    The report goes to the maintenance team with every ticket, photo and location.

  5. 5

    Next month, re-check

    Open tickets are checked again, so the report shows new, still open and fixed.

Set up in minutes

No plans? Start with a room list.

Set a facility up from your floor plans if you have them, or from a plain list of room numbers and names. You can add rooms while you walk. Each room type decides what gets checked, so the walker is guided without reading a drawing.

  • Exam rooms
  • Patient rooms
  • Restrooms
  • Corridors
  • Waiting areas
  • Mechanical
  • Electrical
  • Stairs
  • Roof
  • Exterior
  • Parking
  • Break rooms
  • Storage
  • Labs
  • Nurse stations
  • Offices

Checks include ceiling stains, lights out, door closers, trip hazards, HVAC grilles, plumbing leaks, exit signs, fire extinguishers, clear egress paths, eyewash stations and electrical panel clearance. Copy a template and edit the steps and categories for your own sites.

Tickets, not a photo dump

Each photo becomes a ticket the right person can pick up.

Photos and notes become tickets sorted by category, with a priority and a due date set from it. Open tickets stay open until someone fixes them and the next walk confirms it.

Categories

  • HVAC
  • Plumbing
  • Electrical
  • Life safety
  • Housekeeping
  • Grounds

Also general maintenance, IT and low voltage, and vendor work, so every ticket has an owner.

Scheduling

The walk happens every month, on schedule.

Reports and exports

A report people read, and data your CMMS can take.

Every walk report and ticket list exports four ways. Each report shows new, still open and fixed since the last walk, by category and priority, with photos, notes and due dates.

  • Rich HTML

    A designed, self-contained file with embedded photos. Works offline and prints well. Also a live share link.

  • PDF

    The same layout, ready to attach to an email for the maintenance team.

  • JSON

    A documented, versioned schema with every field and time-limited photo links.

  • CSV

    One row per ticket in a CMMS-friendly shape: title, location, category, priority, status, due date and photo link.

Built for healthcare facilities

Photos with patient information are rejected before anything else happens.

Every photo from a medical site passes a patient-information gate first. Any photo that shows a patient, or patient information such as screens, charts, whiteboards or wristbands, is rejected. It is designed so patient information is never sent anywhere.

  1. 1

    Photo is taken

    The walker photographs a room on a medical site.

  2. 2

    Checked on our own servers

    Before anything else happens, the photo is screened on PunchScope's own servers.

  3. 3

    Patients or patient info? Rejected

    The photo is deleted and the walker is asked to retake it.

  4. 4

    Clear? It moves on

    Only cleared photos are ever processed, reported or shared.

The capture app also reminds walkers before they enter patient areas. If a photo cannot be verified, it is treated as rejected.

Pricing

Straight answers

How do recurring walks work?

Set a facility up once and give it a schedule: weekly, monthly or quarterly. Each walk is created on schedule, the person assigned gets an email with the link a few days before it is due and again on the day, and overdue walks show on your dashboard.

Do we need floor plans?

No. Plans make the checklist more precise if you have them, but you can set a facility up from a plain room list instead. Paste or upload room numbers and names, or add rooms while you walk. The room types (exam room, restroom, corridor, mechanical room, roof, parking and so on) decide what gets checked.

What about patient photos and privacy?

Every photo from a medical facility is checked on PunchScope's own servers before anything else happens. A photo showing a patient or patient information (screens, charts, whiteboards, wristbands) is rejected and deleted, and the walker is asked to retake it. Only cleared photos are ever processed, reported or shared. It is designed so patient information is never sent anywhere. We do not claim HIPAA certification.

Can we get the data into our CMMS?

Yes. Every walk report and ticket list exports as rich HTML, PDF, JSON and CSV. The CSV has one row per ticket with the columns a work-order system expects: title, description, location, category, priority, status, due date and photo link. The JSON is versioned and documented.

Who does the walking?

Anyone you assign. A team member, a facilities tech or a floor lead with a phone can do it, with no plan-reading skills. The checklist tells them what to look at in each room, and they can add a voice or text note to any photo. Photos queue and upload on their own if the signal drops.

What happens to tickets from last month?

Open tickets are re-checked automatically. Each new walk adds a re-check step for every open ticket in the room being walked, so every report shows what is new, what is still open and what is fixed, with before and after photos.

How is it priced?

Per facility per month by building size: $149 up to 10,000 sq ft with 2 walkthroughs and reports included each month, $299 up to 25,000 sq ft with 4, and $499 above 25,000 sq ft with 6. Standard processing is included. An extra walkthrough in a month is $20, $35 or $50 by the same sizes, added to your next invoice after you confirm it in the app. Express is +$19.99 per walk and is ready within 20 minutes.
