Boundary

What stays in Excel and what moves to a system

When deciding between Excel and a web system, consider the volume of inspections, improvements, records, depth of approval, and retention needs.

Excel is enough

Small-scale inspection operations

If you have a small team and limited inspection volume, Excel is still a great tool to manage the workflow.

  • Very few staff involved
  • Low inspection volume
  • Limited locations
Partial systemization

Move status and sharing online first

If you move your lists online first, tracking improvements and sharing becomes much lighter.

  • You want a clean inspection checklist
  • You want to track improvements separately
  • You want to share easily
Full systemization

Design as a system from the start

If you require multiple sites, permission boundaries, or long-term history retention, it is safer to design as a system from the start.

  • Multiple locations
  • Role-based permissions
  • Audit history retention
