Evidence, not paperwork

Every asset
on record.
Every job checked.

LOC gives every asset a label that never fades or falls off. It then checks 100% of the submitted evidence against your standard, so you see which assets are missing and which jobs have failed before you sign off.

Send 50 photos, get results within 24 hours. Or watch the film, 2:29.

The records say it is there. The photos say it is done. Has anyone checked the evidence?

An asset register tells you what should exist and a sign-off sheet tells you the job is complete, but neither is evidence, and nor is a folder of photos that nobody has checked. LOC checks all of it, for every asset.

  • Disputed workTwo parties, two versions, no evidence. The argument costs more than the asset.
  • Repeat visitsA record nobody trusts sends someone back to look. Every look is another visit.
  • Failed auditsAn auditor asks for evidence and gets a spreadsheet and a memory.
  • Assets you did not know you hadFound in the field, missing from the records, uninsured, unmaintained, unbilled.

How the evidence gets in

Three ways in. One record.

Start from the asset in front of you, from your plan, or from the records you inherited. Nothing is keyed in by hand. IDs, positions and details are read off the asset in seconds, so there are no typing errors to find later. Every route ends with a sealed NFC tag on the asset itself and one record behind it.

LiveExisting assets, never documented

Start from the field

Point a phone at the asset. LOC names it from your own category list, reads the printed label, checks whether a record already exists at that spot and proposes the record. Confirm, tag it, done.

  1. Photo
  2. Identify
  3. Match or create
  4. Tag it
LiveNew installs

Start from your plan

Import the design from your GIS or a spreadsheet. LOC creates a record and a label for every planned asset before anyone leaves the depot. One tap at install turns it green on the map.

  1. Import plan
  2. Labels made
  3. Tap at install
LiveExisting assets, records you do not trust

Start from your records

Import the register you inherited, walk the site, and LOC reconciles the two. Three lists come back, each line with a confidence score: found and recorded, found but never recorded, recorded but never found. Each list is ready to hand to your client or your auditor.

  1. Import register
  2. Walk the site
  3. Three lists

Whichever way in, the same record.

  • One record per asset, with a sealed tag on the asset itself
  • Every job checked against your standard
  • One map for the office: proven, pending or failed
  • Evidence attached to every record, ready to export

In the field

Everyone hates paperwork.
So LOC does it for you.

The engineer takes one photo on site. No forms, no typing, no training. From that photo:

  1. It names the asset from your own category list and reads the label.
  2. It checks where you are, so nothing is recorded twice.
  3. It writes the record, details and condition included.
  4. It checks the work against your standard while the engineer is still there.

Every job checked against your standard. Not a sample.

Most programmes check a sample and hope the rest is compliant. The defects they miss surface months later, as a failed audit, a repeat visit or a dispute. LOC's trained QA agents check every photo of every job against your written acceptance criteria and return a pass, a fail or a flag, with the reason in writing. Your reviewers can override any verdict.

BYOB

Your standard is not ours. Brief a bot the way you would brief a new starter, and it checks every photo for exactly that. No code, and no waiting on us.

Ask LOC

Stop building reports. Ask LOC.

Type the question in your own words. LOC works the answer out from your own records and draws the chart, with nothing to export to a separate reporting tool.

  • Rankings. Which contractor, site or asset type is behind.
  • Trends. Whether the pace is picking up and failures are falling.
  • Causes. Which checks fail most, and where.
Ask LOC

Which contractor failed the most checks this month?

Contractor C: 31 of 212 checks failed

Two contractors with fewer than 5 jobs are listed, not ranked.

Evidence that stands up when someone checks it.

A record is only worth something if your client, your auditor or your insurer will accept it. Six things make LOC evidence hold.

Photos that prove themselves

User, time and coordinates are written into the image at capture, and the original is kept with the record.

Nothing gets overwritten

Every tap is a new entry with user, time and position. Corrections are added, never written over, and the trail exports.

Reused photos caught

Every photo is fingerprinted. An exact copy submitted for a second job is flagged 100% of the time, and near copies are ranked for a reviewer.

Screenshots rejected

A screenshot, or a photo of another screen, is not evidence. LOC's trained QA agents spot it and fail it, with the reason in writing.

Contractors see their scope

Private projects and role-based access. Subcontractors see their own scope and nothing else; the owner sees it all.

Works with no signal

Download the project, lose signal and keep capturing. It syncs the moment the phone is back in range.

Send us 50 photos from a live job.

We run them through LOC and send back which ones fail your standard, and why. No commitment, and you keep the results.

Hundreds of indoor air quality sensors, each one a tagged, photo-verified asset.

Installed through LOC and every install photo checked against the spec before each building's air quality command centre went live. The same record, a very different asset.

Boldyn Networks · London · 20-year Transport for London concession

Thousands of assets across 70 km² of central London and the Underground.

Engineers picked it up fast. Chambers are found by map, not guesswork, and asset data is updated before the crew has left site, says Samuel Byfield of build partner Telent.

Every chamber carries a photo, so the crew opens the right lid first time.

Routes recorded stop by stop, field-verified positions exported back to their ArcGIS records, and audit accuracy up by a quarter.

Read the Novegen case study

Efficiency figures are customer-reported estimates from the published case studies. Job check figures are from a pilot audited against the original photographs.

Built for every physical asset you are accountable for.

If it is installed, inspected or maintained, LOC can hold its record. Your asset types, your fields, your acceptance checklist. Pick one to see its estate view.

Buildings and sensors

Sensors, gateways and meters. LOC reads each device ID off the label, ties it to its room on site and double-checks it. Nobody pre-assigns devices to rooms.

Starting a programme, or in the middle of one? Let us assess its evidence.

Tell us about a programme that is planned or under way. We look at how its work is evidenced and checked today, run a sample of your own records and photos through LOC, and send back an assessment: what you can prove, what you cannot, and what would close the gap.

Prefer to look first? Watch the film or read the case studies.

What would you like?

What happens next: we reply to agree what to send. For a photo check that is 50 photos from a live job, with results back within 24 hours. We use these details only for that.
