Checklist-driven fieldwork with photos, QR codes, and meter readings

ArkanPM equips technicians with interactive checklists, photo-backed evidence, QR and barcode scanning on assets, and meter-reading capture — all through a mobile-responsive web interface that works on any device.

Fieldwork quality suffers when the tools are paper, phones, and hope

1Technicians fill paper checklists that get lost, damaged, or never make it back to the office.
2Photos of work progress live in individual phone cameras, disconnected from the work order record.
3Asset identification relies on reading faded labels or calling the office to confirm which unit is which.
4Meter readings are transcribed by hand and mistyped into spreadsheets, producing bad billing data.
5Inspections missing required photos get closed anyway because the system has no way to enforce completion.

The Solution

Arkan Field Operations Capabilities

Interactive checklists with five response types

Work orders attach multi-item checklists with checkbox, text, number, photo, and select response types. Required items must be completed before the work order can be closed.

Photo-backed evidence on every task

Photo response items capture evidence directly into the work order or inspection record. Move-in and move-out checklists use per-item photos tied to condition ratings for dispute-free comparisons.

QR and barcode scanning on assets

Every asset carries a unique code, barcode, and QR code URL. Technicians scan to pull up asset profiles, maintenance history, manuals, and warranty information in context — no guessing which unit they're looking at.

Meter reading capture with photo evidence

Record readings for electric, water, gas, steam, and chilled water meters. Capture meter numbers, reading values, previous values, consumption calculations, and photo evidence — scoped to units or entire buildings.

Mobile-responsive web — no app install required

ArkanPM is a mobile-responsive web application. Technicians open it in any browser on any device, with full access to work orders, checklists, photo upload, and scanning — no app-store download, no device management.

Push notifications deliver to registered mobile devices via web push-token registration — no native mobile application.

How It Works

Simple 6-Step Process

Technicians open ArkanPM in a mobile browser and see their assigned work orders with SLA countdowns.

They scan an asset's QR or barcode to pull up its profile, maintenance history, and linked warranty records.

The attached checklist guides them through each required step with checkbox, text, number, photo, and select responses.

Photos are captured directly into the work order; meter readings record with value, previous value, and photo evidence.

Parts used are logged against the work order with quantity tracking that updates inventory in real time.

Completion is blocked until all required checklist items are satisfied — quality is enforced by the workflow.

Key Benefits

Measurable Impact

Checklist response types

5 types

Checkbox, text, number, photo, and select — adaptable to any field task.

Asset identification

QR + barcode

Every asset scannable with code lookup into full history and documentation.

Platform delivery

Mobile-responsive web

No app install, no app-store approval cycle — runs in any modern mobile browser.

“Our technicians used to come back at the end of the day with paper checklists and phone photos that nobody could match to work orders. Now they scan the asset, complete the checklist with photos, and the record is closed before they leave the site.”
