monitorQA has significantly dropped the time spent having to prepare reports. Everything is now completed on site with zero time spent afterwards trying to create the report and PowerPoint presentation. As soon as I submit the inspection, everything is already done. It’s scored. I have pictures. I have notes—all before I leave the location. It’s great!

About AC Pro

AC Pro is a family-owned heating, air conditioning, ventilation, and refrigeration (HVACR) distributor headquartered in Fontana, CA — serving Arizona, Southern California, and Southern Nevada markets with their highly trained associates and commitment to excellence. They carry thousands of quality products from the industry’s leading brands and needed a software solution that would save them the time of having to prepare reports and would increase their overall compliance rate among store managers.

The Problem

AC Pro has been a leader in their industry for years, but they were still performing health and safety audits using Excel and PowerPoint. This meant too much time was being wasted post-inspection preparing reports for location managers.Auditing teams had to manually upload pictures and add detailed notes for each picture, which added more time to this slow process. Finally, preparing a same-day PowerPoint presentation after every inspection added an extra two hours to the inspection process, but was required to ensure the information was still fresh.The follow-up process was challenging for AC Pro as well. Follow-ups sometimes came 30 days later, which led to missed corrective actions and inefficiency. What should’ve been a simple re-inspection became a problem if the previous notes weren’t clear or used pictures that failed to provide clarity. In many cases, there were limited pictures available since each one had to be uploaded manually.All of this made it challenging for the company and its managers to ensure compliance across all operations. The lack of collaboration between locations made it difficult to document issues, measure progress, and create a culture of safety.AC Pro needed a solution — one that would make the auditing process more efficient and effective as the company worked towards company-wide compliance.
