Project Inspections & Building Safety: A Digital Solution for the Golden Thread

Digitising Construction Compliance: KMS & Resco Partnership

 

Bridging the Gap Between Project Data and On-Site Inspections with KMS Project-CRM and Resco Inspections+

The construction industry is evolving rapidly, with increasing compliance demands, safety regulations, and the need for accurate, auditable records. The Building Safety Act has placed a legal responsibility on all stakeholders to ensure that buildings are designed, constructed, and maintained safely. Yet, many contractors, subcontractors, and manufacturers still rely on outdated, paper-based methods to record critical site data—methods that are inefficient, error-prone, and fail to provide a Golden Thread of Information.

At KMS, we believe in digitising construction processes to improve accountability and efficiency. That’s why we’ve partnered with Resco, a leading provider of mobile inspection technology with best in class offline capabilities, to offer Resco Inspections+ as part of our Project-CRM solution. This combination provides construction businesses with a seamless, end-to-end system for managing projects and site inspections in a way that is fully digital, structured, and compliant.

Why Construction Needs Digital Inspection & Compliance Tools

The industry can no longer afford to rely on paper forms, spreadsheets, or disconnected systems to track installations, defects, and compliance checks. These traditional methods increase risk, slow down projects, and make audits difficult.

Key challenges construction businesses face today:

📌 Lack of a centralised, auditable record – Project data is scattered, making compliance checks difficult.

📌 Manual processes create inefficiencies – Paper-based inspections lead to lost or incorrect data.

📌 No real-time visibility – Critical issues can go unnoticed without instant digital reporting.

📌 Struggles with compliance – The Building Safety Act requires a structured Golden Thread of Information, but without the right tools, many businesses fall short.

By integrating Resco Inspection+ with Project-CRM, contractors, subcontractors, and site managers can eliminate these inefficiencies and ensure full compliance with modern construction standards

KMS Software delivers a project-driven sales software that enhances every aspect of your project life-cycle, leveraging its unique understanding of this sector’s needs and future requirements. Our system seamlessly integrates with your existing software, ensuring that your projects are managed with the utmost precision.
