iPAS Digital Documentation

The best repair and restoration design documents are founded on accurate and detailed data, collected at the earliest stages of a project. Critical to long-term success, is the delivery of this data in a format that can be easily used by the entire project team including design professionals, building owners, facility managers, and contractors.

Building on a thirty-five year legacy of trusted investigation expertise, Vertical Access introduces iPAS, the next-generation of our Tablet PC Annotation System (TPAS). Transitioning from a Windows/AutoCAD environment to an iOS platform, iPAS transforms how existing condition data is captured, managed, and shared.

From Field Investigation to Live Client Control

iPAS bridges detailed diagnostic investigations with modern cloud agility. iPAS delivers an intuitive, interactive project web page where all collected data, including cataloged and annotated conditions, quantitative severity and priority information, spreadsheets, and high-resolution media, are dynamically linked.
