How Smart Workflows Automate Compliance
Set Up Compliance Tracking in Infodeck
Follow these steps to automate your school's compliance program. Each inspection from the checklist above becomes a scheduled, tracked, and documented task.
Create Recurring Work Orders
Set up automated work orders for every compliance task. Infodeck generates them on schedule - daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually.
Build Digital Inspection Forms
Create forms with checkboxes, photo uploads, and signature fields. Technicians scan QR codes at each location to complete inspections on mobile.
Configure Smart Workflows (Optional IoT)
If you have IoT sensors, create condition-based triggers that auto-generate work orders when thresholds are exceeded.
Set Up SLAs & Notifications
Define response times by priority. Get email and mobile alerts before deadlines are missed.
| Priority | Response | Resolution | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical | 15 min | 2 hrs | Fire alarm issue |
| High | 1 hr | 8 hrs | HVAC failure |
| Low | 8 hrs | 48 hrs | Routine inspection |
Generate Audit-Ready Reports
When the fire marshal arrives, export complete compliance history with one click. All photos, signatures, and timestamps included.
