The new Construction Viz Questionnaire component provides even more choice
In construction, questionnaires are essential for gathering qualitative and quantitative information on a project. As a project manager, you want your field team to use questionnaires to report on various construction activities including, but not limited to, job site safety, project progress, quality control, identification of issues and defects, and adherence to specification and contractual requirements.
For those using Construction Viz, you may already be familiar with our standard Area of Work (AOW) component which allows you to create ad hoc questions in the Daily Report or Inspection forms. Field personnel respond to the AOW questions through set yes, no, and N/A response fields. While the functionality of the AOW component has worked great for documenting and reporting on field activities and project progress, we wanted to give our clients even more flexibility when creating unique questionnaires.
Introducing the new customized “Questionnaire” component, for any Construction Viz form!
The new “Questionnaire” component expands on our standard AOW component in multiple ways:
- Custom Deployment. Your customized “Questionnaire” component is deployed per your requirements. Name your component and choose from various response field types that will be available in questionnaires within your component, including:
- Text fields. Capture open-ended responses.
- Standardize responses and minimize data input.
- Date fields. Capture key dates, such as start and/or completion dates, delivery dates.
- Number fields. Restrict responses to numerical values to track various measurable data such as quantities, hours, cost, etc.
- Dynamic Component Configuration. You can create multiple questionnaires within your custom component, and have full control over configuration:
- Component Configuration. As the project progresses, you can create new, or hide old, questionnaires, and re-order the questionnaires within the component so the questions are responded to in a logical sequence of project activities, etc.
- Questionnaire Configuration. For each questionnaire, restrict how field personnel respond to your questions by selecting from the available response field types, and configure the order of the active columns and individual questions in which they appear within the questionnaire.
