Equipment Verification

Keep your equipment records accurate with field-based verification that turns every service visit into a data quality opportunity. Many hands make light work.

Why Equipment Verification Matters

Accurate Billing

Ensure you're billing for what's actually installed at each location. Eliminate revenue leakage from outdated records.

Operational Efficiency

Leverage every service visit for verification. No dedicated audit trips needed when technicians update records on-site.

Data Accuracy

Complete audit trail shows who changed what and when. Photo documentation provides visual verification.

Team Collaboration

Every technician contributes to data quality. Distributed verification keeps records current without overwhelming any single person.

When To Use Equipment Verification

Dedicated Equipment Surveys

Create specific service tickets for technicians to conduct complete equipment audits at customer locations. Perfect for new customer onboarding or contract renewals where you need comprehensive documentation.

Opportunistic Updates

Add verification tasks to regular service tickets. While technicians are on-site for routine maintenance, they can quickly verify and update equipment records without requiring a separate trip.

Discrepancy Resolution

When you suspect equipment records don't match reality, dispatch a technician with a verification task. They can quickly identify what's actually installed and correct the records immediately.

Periodic Audits

Set up regular verification cycles to ensure all customer equipment gets reviewed at least annually. The filtering tools make it easy to identify which locations haven't been verified recently.

Integrated With Field Service

Equipment Verification isn't a standalone module - it's fully integrated with the MDS Insight field service system.

Verification tasks can be added to any service ticket, either as the primary purpose of the visit or as an additional task during routine service. All equipment changes sync immediately with your service records, ensuring technicians always have accurate information about what's installed at each location.

The optional daily email report keeps service managers informed of verification activity without requiring them to log in and run reports manually.
