Uniform Commercial Premises

Improve efficiency in the field by capturing data electronically.

Make it easier for your environmental health officers to manage their commercial premises inspections, calculate inspection ratings, and transfer inspection information to the office from the field, by integrating mobile capability with your Idox Environmental Health solution.

How Uniform Commercial Premises can help

Uniform Commercial Premises integrates seamlessly with the Commercial Premises module of your Uniform Environmental Health solution to provide:

  • Remote download and upload of information, using a Pocket PC and an Internet connection.
  • Structured data capture and automated inspection ratings.
  • The opportunity to implement flexible working policies that can benefit your team and help you improve your service.

Structured workflow, automated processes

With Uniform Commercial Premises your officers enter all inspection data directly into the application during a premises visit, using a structured data capture framework that promotes consistency and minimises the risk of omission or errors.

The inspection rating process is automated by assigning values to answers given in response to a set of questions, from which Commercial Premises calculates the score, category and next inspection due date.

Once the inspection data is uploaded to your Uniform Environmental Health system, it is used to automatically generate:

  • A template schedule letter for sending to the premises owner.
  • An activity report for the case file, that can also be emailed or printed.

Flexibility and satisfaction all round

Extending the reach of your back-office system to the point of customer interaction helps you improve public perception and deliver a more business-friendly regulatory and compliance regime. It also lets you implement flexible working policies that:

  • Enable your officers to control their work-life balance and be more productive.
  • Make it possible to extend service availability with out-of-hours inspections.
  • Help you make cost-savings on office accommodation and consumables.
