Krank launches new operational control layer for inspections and field operations

The Inspeq Platform has been designed for the frontline

The Inspeq Platform is a modular operational layer developed to sit alongside existing enterprise systems, providing organisations with a control tower oversight of inspections, work order execution, and fleet operations without disrupting established workflows

Frontline teams across mining, construction, energy, utilities, and heavy industry are facing growing pressures to keep assets running safely while making faster decisions amid tightening margins. While most large organisations already operate CMMS, EAM, and ERP systems, inspections and field workflows remain fragmented, paper-based, or disconnected, with issues captured late or slow to reach decision-makers.

To close this gap, Krank has created the Inspeq Platform. Instead of replacing existing CMMS, EAM, or ERP systems, Inspeq acts as an operational control layer that connects frontline activity directly to management and decision-makers. The platform helps to unite inspections, work order execution, sites, accountable teams, and asset-level intelligence into a single, real-time environment, providing management control tower visibility across fleets, sites, and operations while integrating with the systems organisations already rely on.

Designed for the frontline 

The Inspeq platform has been designed around frontline reality: limited connectivity, busy sites, and harsh environments. It can connect inspection workflows, remote oversight, and real-time task coordination into one unified operational environment with continuous visibility across assets, sites, and teams.

Khurram Mumtaz, CTO at Krank, said, “We have developed the Inspeq Platform around what frontline teams need most on the job. It helps them catch issues faster, assign work instantly, and deliver the right insights to the right people at the right time.”

Inspeq removes a barrier to digital transformation by integrating with existing systems instead of replacing them. Teams can modernise inspections and operations without disrupting workflows or retraining their workforce.

Remote Work Orders

One capability is Remote Work Orders, a remote inspection and work order execution solution designed for busy, often disconnected environments, enabling senior inspectors or highly qualified technicians to remotely conduct and oversee inspections, guiding junior inspectors, operators, sales teams, or mechanics around a machine in real time.

Using a live video call, senior personnel can direct what needs to be inspected, where to focus, and what evidence to capture while completing the inspection or work report remotely via the desktop platform. High-definition images and video are captured live on site, while all findings are recorded centrally as the inspection unfolds.

This enables scarce senior expertise to be deployed across more inspections, extending oversight across a wider geographical footprint without requiring senior technicians to be physically at each site. This helps reduce travel, produce faster inspection turnaround times, and ensure more consistent inspection quality across distributed operations.

Mumtaz said, “Remote Work Orders were developed to address a practical operational constraint: experienced inspectors cannot be everywhere at once. By enabling senior technicians to conduct and oversee inspections remotely, we allow teams to complete more inspections with the same level of rigour, while reducing travel time, cost, and disruption. It changes how inspection capacity can be scaled across large, distributed operations.”

Inspections connected to work order execution

Inspeq’s inspection capabilities can help to enhance how inspections are performed, captured, and acted upon. High-quality visual evidence, structured checklists, and immediate reporting ensure inspection outcomes are immediately available and actionable.

Inspeq also prevents inspections from ending as static reports with inspection findings being entered into live work order execution, enabling faster defect resolution, clearer accountability, and improved coordination between field teams and management.

A unified operational ecosystem

Pre-start checks, maintenance schedules, discrepancy reporting, asset histories, and work order execution are available in the Inspeq Platform, enabling managers to maintain live visibility as work unfolds. By acting as an operational layer above existing enterprise systems, Inspeq can enhance data quality, accelerate response times, and decrease administrative overhead without forcing organisations to replace the tools they already trust.

Krank has developed the Inspeq Platform with frontline feedback in mind to create a connected operational hub that combines inspection workflows, remote oversight, mobile-first design, and offline capability. The result is a scalable platform that eliminates fragmented processes, accelerates decision-making, and gives organisations confidence that frontline activity, asset data, and operational insight are always aligned.
