Uptick software for fire protection sector now available in UK

Uptick exists to assist companies in eliminating paperwork, improving technicians’ efficiency and building stronger relationships with owners and facility managers through an engaging customer portal and both photo and video-rich defect quotes.

Over one-in-four commercial buildings and more than two million assets in Australia and New Zealand are maintained thanks to Uptick’s easy-to-use software. Now, fire protection businesses throughout the UK can take advantage of the same technology.

Aidan Lister, company founder and CEO at Uptick, informed Fire Safety Matters: “Uptick has seen tremendous growth throughout Australia and New Zealand because we’re offering a solution that’s tailored to complex asset maintenance requirements. This is something that’s currently underserved by other field servicing products. We’re now entering the UK with boots on the ground and British Standards built-in as well as exciting partnerships with associations and leading equipment vendors like Honeywell. We’ve already signed up some leading service providers in the UK and we’re keen to share their success story in the coming months.”

With Best-in-Class features and “unrivalled benefits”, Uptick affords end users of its solution the opportunity to:

*increase billable hours and reduce downtime with smart scheduling: the system geographically allocates tasks for maximum efficiency while taking into account access hours, accreditation or qualification requirements

*reduce time on site by 40% with a floorplan feature that allows technicians to navigate quickly through a building while locating hard-to-find equipment.

*take the guesswork out of operations with built-in British Standards such as BS 5839 and BS 7273

*provide customers with rich insights, the ability to track maintenance across entire portfolios and approve quotes with the push of a button in a Customer Portal that they’ll actually use

*turn defects into photo and video-rich professional defect quotes in an instant and even create product quotes from the field for authorised employees

*empower technicians to solve problems in a fraction of the time with an easy-to-use mobile app that works without an Internet connection or the need for manual syncing
