Leveraging augmented reality
for inspections

Manifest helps your workforce perform inspections, audits, and quality checks more accurately and efficiently. Modernize your inspection workflows and digitize the process of recording, resolving, and reporting faults and inspection results.

Inspections done well with augmented reality

A combination of real-time, always available step-by-step inspection guidance, automatic reporting and archiving of key results per facility, location and piece of equipment, and integrated remote assistance capabilities make inspections more efficient and accurate.

Uniform fault reporting and resolution

Manifest’s built-in fault reporting system provides workers with a consistent, integrated way to flag, describe, and resolve faults found during the inspection process.  Reports are automatically generated while inspections are being performed.

Accurate, consistent and efficient execution

Inspection processes are completed in a standard, step-by-step order where workers follow structured AR work instructions and must successfully complete one step before advancing and evidence of completion can be required while inspecting equipment. Following these augmented reality work instructions for inspections and quality control will enable less experienced workers to safely perform the process at an expert level.

Conditional and dynamic guidance

For more complex inspection processes, Manifest supports conditional paths where dynamic guidance and workflow will change depending on environmental conditions, worker input, and other criteria. Real-time, IoT sensor data can be incorporated to aid workers in selecting the best path during equipment inspections.

Capture and record evidence

Inspectors can be required to submit a photo, a video, or meter reading at the end of each step or procedure to provide evidence of successful completion, better describe faults and expedite their resolution, or add more context to inspection records and history.

Efficient remote inspections

Manifest’s integrated AR for inspections and quality control includes remote assistance capabilities. It provides all the collaborative tools to enable remote inspections so experts can be leveraged efficiently to perform inspection procedures while minimizing travel. 

Traceability

All work done with Manifest is recorded and reported as part of the inspection data. A complete job history is archived for any inspection or task started or completed. Integrated reporting and APIs provide the means to use this data and integrate it into existing business systems.

With augmented reality and a differentiated feature set, Manifest enables better equipment and maintenance inspections.

Manifest’s open APIs enable real-time and archived data to be shared with IT systems. Learn more

A real great benefit is to produce a closeout package as you’re going through the process. That just saves you an extra step at the end of the project where typically we’re spending another day to capture the closeout information, where this could be doing it all along.
