eBIS

eBIS is a paid Android and iOS mobile app for managing building inspections on construction projects. It covers condition surveys, water tests, work progress monitoring, and quality and safety inspections. Teams can capture site conditions, observations, photos, and reports; schedule water tests, record results in real time, manage retests, and retain test history; and track progress with configurable checklists, site photos, and updates. Issue tools register feedback, follow resolution, and use automated escalations. Quality inspections can identify non-conformances, assign corrective actions, and track closure and compliance. Checklists, forms, and workflows can be customized, while reports can be generated and shared with stakeholders. Mobile features include offline capture, photo and video evidence, digital signatures, GPS and timestamps, QR scanning, push notifications, and multiple languages. NewGene Technologies provides implementation assistance. Pricing is available on request, with a 14-day trial.

eBIS brings inspection, testing, progress, and issue workflows into a mobile construction app. Its offline tools and configurable forms support teams working across active sites.

eBIS is for construction teams coordinating inspections and project work across sites. It fits organizations needing mobile, offline capture and configurable inspection workflows.

eBIS is a construction inspection app for teams that need disciplined site records and follow-up on phones. It is best suited to contractors, developers, and project teams running repeated inspections across active sites. The choice is strongest when offline evidence and corrective-action tracking matter more than a broad desktop workspace.

Overview

eBIS brings condition surveys, water tests, work-progress checks, and quality and safety inspections into one project workflow. Condition surveys capture site conditions and observations, attach photos, and produce reports. That combination gives a project a consistent visual record for stakeholder review instead of leaving evidence in separate camera rolls and messages.

Water-test tools cover scheduling, real-time result entry, retests, and test history. Projects that repeat tests or need to show a sequence of outcomes benefit from that traceability. Progress monitoring uses configurable checklists, site photos, updates, and real-time tracking, so it is better suited to recurring site reviews than occasional note-taking.

Issue management supports feedback registration, corrective-action assignment, resolution tracking, and automated escalations. Quality and safety inspections can identify non-conformances and follow them through closure and compliance. Reports can be generated and shared with stakeholders, extending the workflow beyond the inspectors in the field.

Key features

Configurable inspections

Checklists, forms, and workflows can be tailored to project requirements. This is valuable for teams with different inspection regimes across projects, although configuration work will be part of implementation rather than an off-the-shelf setup.

Evidence and accountability

Offline data capture keeps field work moving when connectivity is unreliable. Photo and video evidence, digital signatures, GPS coordinates, and timestamps add context and accountability to each record. QR scanning, push notifications, and multi-language support help teams coordinate site activity and communicate findings across varied crews.

Issue closure

Automated escalations and corrective-action tracking address the point where many inspection systems fall short: making sure a finding is resolved, not merely recorded. Teams needing a clear path from non-conformance to closure will get more from eBIS than teams seeking only a digital checklist.

Pricing

eBIS uses custom pricing. The eBIS plan has no published price; prospective customers are asked to request a quote or demo. A 14-day trial is offered, giving an organisation a limited period to assess its workflows before committing.

Because pricing is arranged directly, eBIS is a better fit for construction organisations willing to discuss project scope and implementation with the vendor than for a small team seeking a transparent, self-serve subscription. The paid model also means there is no free tier for keeping a small inspection operation running indefinitely.

Platforms

eBIS has mobile apps for Android and iOS. Offline mode is a practical advantage on construction sites, while GPS and timestamps, signatures, media capture, QR scanning, notifications, and multiple languages reinforce its field-first design. A web or desktop platform is not part of the stated platform offering, so office users who need a browser-based control centre should evaluate alternatives carefully.

Who it's for

eBIS is aimed at construction teams managing inspections and projects across sites: contractors, developers, and project teams that need condition surveys, water-test records, progress evidence, and quality or safety follow-up in one system. It makes the most sense where inspections generate corrective work and where connectivity cannot be assumed. It is less compelling for organisations whose main requirement is desktop reporting or a simple, low-cost form builder.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Offline capture supports inspections in poorly connected areas; configurable forms and workflows accommodate project-specific requirements; corrective actions, escalations, and closure tracking give issues an accountable route to resolution; water-test retests and history preserve a useful audit trail; signatures, GPS, timestamps, photos, and video strengthen evidence.
• Cons: Pricing is custom, with no published plan cost or free tier; the stated platform support is limited to Android and iOS, which may leave office-based teams wanting a web workspace; implementation and configuration support may be important for projects with complex workflows.

Alternatives

SafetyCulture (now Mitti) is the better starting point for teams wanting Android, iOS, and web access plus a free plan for up to 10 seats, five active inspection templates, and 300 AI credits per seat each month.

Choose Safesite when a freemium model matters: its free plan allows unlimited members and guests, though reporting is limited to the last 30 days, while Premium costs $16 per member per month.

HammerTech suits organisations looking for a broader construction platform with free subcontractor access and a tailored paid plan.

CityReporter is an option for municipalities needing configurable inspection modules and a quote-based model.

Inspect2GO is worth considering when a public agency needs a site licence covering all users and modules configured to its requirements.

PACKTRACK is a freemium mobile and web choice centred on handler subscriptions and map tracking.

Fluix offers paid Crews, Operations, and Enterprise tiers for teams that want a broader workflow platform with web access.

FORM provides paid, configurable form-automation plans, including options with minimum user counts.

Verdict

Choose eBIS if your construction organisation needs offline inspection evidence, configurable site workflows, and a firm process for corrective actions and closure. Its mobile focus and custom pricing suit operational teams prepared to work with a vendor on implementation. Look elsewhere if a published low-cost plan, a permanent free tier, or a web and desktop workspace is essential.
