Data Outputs - Word, PDF, Excel, CSV

Without surveys we typically output your survey data as a Word document, in easy-to-read format, with hyper linked photographs, and a selection of the data that you need present to stakeholders.

You would normally save this as a PDF and distribute to your clients or organisation members.

With out pivot table wizard technology you can produce comprehensive Excel pivot tables & pivot charts in seconds. You can then distribute these to your clients, where they can perform drill down, their own analysis, and print various scenarios.

We also provide extensive Excel & CSV data via our export wizards, that can be easily customised to map your data onto any, and I repeat any, building asset management system.

Our Survey Methodology - Overview

You can capture unlimited attributes for unlimited building elements with all the standard input types that you would ever need.

Input types can be simple menus such as yes no, a list of items, tick lists, numeric items with bounds and validation, free text entry, look up reference data, and various scales with underlying codes.

We were typically present building elements in a very structured manner by grouping them into sections containing items with flexible descriptions. Furthermore, these would typically be held and a schedule of rates held in a spreadsheet format for easy change and configuration.
