Inspection Scheduling & Coordination

Q: Can the automation handle rescheduling requests from inspectors or customers?

Yes. When a reschedule is requested, automation re-evaluates availability and equipment readiness without repeating manual checks, then sends updated options to the customer.

Q: Does the automation work with our existing Google Calendar and HubSpot setup?

Yes. The automation reads from your current calendars and CRM, ranks inspectors based on real availability and skill data, and writes confirmed bookings back to both systems.

Q: What if an inspector or piece of equipment becomes unavailable last minute?

Automation monitors calendar changes and equipment status in real time. If a conflict arises, it can trigger a rescheduling workflow or alert your scheduler to reassign the inspection.

Q: How does the automation decide which inspector to assign to each inspection?

Automation ranks inspectors by availability, relevant certifications, and travel distance to the job site, then proposes the best fit. Your team can override the recommendation if needed.

Keep every solar site inspection on track without the back-and-forth phone calls and missed paperwork.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Inspection Request Receivedtrigger

Customer submits request via website form or email. Webhook captures request data including customer contact, preferred dates, and site address.

2. Fetch Team Availability

Automation queries API for all inspectors and pulls open slots across the customer's preferred date range in real time.

3. Check Equipment Status

Automation reads equipment inventory and confirms required tools and test equipment are available for each candidate date.

4. Match Inspector to Inspection

The automation evaluates inspector skill match, travel distance to site, and availability, then ranks and selects the best-fit inspector for the job.

5. Request Customer Confirmation

Automation sends customer a calendar invite and confirmation link with 2-3 available time slots. Customer clicks to confirm directly.

6. Customer Confirmed?

Automation waits for customer response. If confirmed within 24 hours, proceed. If no response after 24 hours, send reminder.

7. Create Calendar Events and Notify Team

Automation creates events for inspector and logistics team, sends notifications with site details and equipment requirements, and logs booking.

8. Send Final Confirmation to Customer

Automation sends customer final confirmation email with inspector name, inspection date, time, and pre-inspection instructions.
