AET Energy Efficiency BV: Inspection tool for an efficient future
At AET Energy Efficiency BV (AET), the optimization of work processes is central. As a specialist in inspections, the company is constantly looking for ways to save time and increase quality. The switch from manual reports in Word to the digital inspection tool Incontrol has played a key role in this.
From Word to Incontrol: more efficient and easier.
Previously, AET spent a lot of time preparing reports in Word. This process required many administrative tasks and was prone to errors. The introduction of Incontrol has drastically changed this:
-
Time savings: Inspectors now fill in digital forms that are directly converted into reports
-
Less administration: Reports, action points, and updates are centrally managed, minimizing fragmented communication.
Unique collaboration as the foundation for success.
What truly sets Incontrol apart is the way it was created. Incontrol developed the tool in collaboration with an expert team from inspection companies, including AET. This collaboration between subject matter specialists and technical developers resulted in a solution that is perfectly suited to real-world needs.
'Incontrol facilitated the process, we brought the knowledge. The result is an inspection tool that feels as if it was made specifically for us.' — Frits Appel
Incontrol.FIX: repair processes radically improved – and new opportunities for inspectors.
"AET also uses the recently introduced Incontrol.FIX. Previously, the process of assessing repaired defects was done via separate emails and WeTransfers – a messy and time-consuming process. Inspectors had to manually match photos with deviations in reports, often with incomplete information. Thanks to Incontrol.FIX, this has been significantly improved. Repair evidence is now provided in a structured and complete manner before assessment. All information is readily available, organized, and linked to the correct defects, making the process considerably more efficient.
Ereal-world example demonstrates how Incontrol.FIX not only optimizes processes but also creates new business opportunities: Frits successfully introduced FIX at a large healthcare institution with more than 15 locations. For this organization, it means better control over maintenance and inspections, faster processing, and less administrative hassle. At the same time, it provides Frits with an additional business model: in addition to his inspection services, he now also offers a smart digital solution that directly helps his clients move forward.
" My client immediately saw the added value: less administration, more control, and better quality. FIX really helps them – and me – move forward," Frits continues. "A win-win situation that perfectly illustrates how Incontrol.FIX adds value for both the client and the inspection company"
Smart integration: Incontrol Sync & Megger MFT-X1
An important innovation is the integration with the Megger MFT-X1 measuring equipment. Previously, measurement values had to be entered manually – a time-consuming and error-prone process. Now, data is automatically synced with Incontrol via Bluetooth.
Benefits of this integration:
-
No more manual data entry
-
No typing errors
-
Direct and error-free registration of measurement data
-
More reliable inspection reports
'We save time and improve the accuracy of our inspections. It's a real game-changer for our workflow.'"
Working with templates & standards
"Within Incontrol, AET uses various managed inspection templates, including:
-
Scope 8, 10, and 12 (electrical installations and fire safety)
-
NEN3140 (operation of electrical installations)
-
NEN1010 (safety of low-voltage installations)
These managed templates ensure standardization and flexibility, depending on the projects, and ensure that AET is always compliant."
Conclusion: an indispensable tool
In summary, it could be said that AET is fully convinced of the power of Incontrol. This delivers:
-
Time savings in reporting and administration
-
Reliable and error-free data processing
-
More efficient handling of corrective actions
-
Active role in further development through the expert team
Frits concludes with the words: " There is no other tool on the market that offers this level of integration and ease of use. Incontrol has become indispensable in our daily operations."
