Forms and checklists, automated and transformed
Photograph or upload the forms you already use — or simply describe them — and they become digital versions your crew fills in on the phone, on site, and prints when needed.
Photograph it, and it’s on their phones
Take up to six photos of a paper form, page by page, or upload it as a PDF of up to about fifteen pages. ReadyServicePro reads the pages and rebuilds the form as sections and fields that make sense on a phone — a faithful recreation, not a pixel clone, so a cramped grid of checkboxes becomes something a thumb can actually fill.
Nothing saves behind your back. The rebuilt form opens side by side with the original for you to review and edit, and it joins your library only when you save it. Walk away and nothing is left behind.
Or describe it in a sentence
The other way in is plainer still: type what you want. “A checklist for cleanup after a panel installation” comes back drafted and ready to edit — sections, fields and all. And you can always build a form from a blank page, field by field, when you’d rather start from nothing.
Checklists are the other half
Forms are the paperwork other people make you carry. Checklists are the paperwork that is yours — the closeout routine, the safety walk, the punch list you want run the same way on every job. Attach one to a job and the crew knows what’s expected before they knock on the door, and the submitted copy lands on the job’s record for the office to see.
Filled on site, like everything else
The crew fills a form on the phone, section by section, in whatever order the work actually happens. Photo fields open the camera. Signature fields take a finger-drawn signature on the screen. Required fields are checked once, at submit — never mid-fill — so the form says exactly what’s missing when they turn it in instead of nagging while they work.
One honest limit, stated plainly: filling and submitting a form needs a connection. The app says so on the spot rather than failing quietly.
Signed means signed
A submitted form is a frozen snapshot of what was filled and signed, kept against the version of the form it was filled on. Editing the template later changes future fills only — it never rewrites a document somebody already signed. Corrections don’t happen by quiet edit either: a correction is an amendment, a new copy pre-filled from the original, and both versions stay visible, labelled as amended and amendment.
It prints
Every completed form prints as a clean document — for the inspector, the customer’s file, or the packet the general contractor wants. And every form in your library prints blank, for the clipboard on the day a battery dies.
Seven electrical forms ship in the library, built alongside working contractors: panel installation verification, EV charger installation checkout, GFCI and AFCI protection testing, generator commissioning, a job completion checklist, customer acknowledgment and sign-off, and a punch list. Adding another trade’s standard set is something we do with a real contractor in that trade, the way the electrical set was built — and everything else on this page works for every trade today. Forms ride the same phone as the rest of the day’s work, alongside check-ins, hours, parts and photos.
Can ReadyServicePro recreate my inspection form?
Yes. Photograph it — up to six photos, page by page — or upload it as a PDF of about fifteen pages. ReadyServicePro rebuilds it as a phone-friendly form: the same sections, fields and checkboxes, arranged to be filled with a thumb rather than cloned pixel for pixel. You review the result side by side with the original, edit anything, and nothing saves until you say so.
What if the manufacturer or the county requires their own form?
That is exactly what this is for. Most job paperwork is designed by somebody else — the inspector, the manufacturer, the utility, the general contractor — and you don’t get to change it. Photograph their form once and the crew fills it on site from then on. The completed submission prints as a clean document to hand over or file with whoever required it.
Can I make my own checklists?
Yes, three ways: describe one in a sentence and edit the draft that comes back, build one field by field from a blank page, or photograph a paper checklist you already use. Attach a checklist to a job and the crew sees it in the field app with the rest of the job, fills it on site, and the submitted copy lands on the job’s record.
Does editing a form change what’s already been signed?
Never. A submission is a frozen snapshot, kept against the version of the form it was filled on, so editing the template changes future fills only. There are no quiet edits to a signed document either: a correction is an amendment — a new copy pre-filled from the original — and both versions stay visible, labelled as amended and amendment.
Do forms work offline?
No — filling and submitting a form needs a connection, and the app says so plainly rather than failing quietly. The rest of the field day is different: check-ins, time and materials, parts requests and notes all queue on the phone when there’s no signal and send themselves when coverage returns. Forms and photos are the two things that wait.
