  • Report Types: Template customization for ComSOP Commercial Property Inspections, Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) Reports, and specialized add-ons such as cost-to-remedy or accessibility reports.
  • Field Workflow:
    • Equipment schedules that can be inventoried on-site and a narrative library with multiple views.
    • Sharing forms with subcontractors or consultants and collecting field data in real time without granting full system access to the platform.
  • CRM Features: Client web portal for viewing reports, commenting, and completing questionnaires that automatically populate into the inspection file.

Open-Floor Discussion

The roundtable concluded with updates and community discussion on transitioning into commercial property inspections, maintaining data security, and refining client communication. Inspectors shared how commercial property inspections demand a different mindset than residential work, requiring different reporting practices, tailored pricing strategies, and a network of professionals to support specialty systems and complex properties.

Consider: How are you adjusting your inspection process and client communication to meet commercial expectations?
