Year: 2023

In the summer of 2022, San Bernardino County Land Use Services Department launched its own building inspection application called EZ Inspect. This application took nearly a year of careful planning and testing before it was released to the public in June of 2022. In 2021, the County issued an informal RFP for virtual inspection services, realizing that virtual building inspections were eventually going to be the norm in the industry. The County partnered with CityGovApp, and quickly realized that they could develop something that was more than just a virtual inspection application. Not only would contractors be able to schedule an inspection using the app, but they could also do a self-inspection/certification using the app (for certain inspection types using checklists built into the app. They could also utilize virtual inspections and receive the inspection report in real time. EZ Inspect is very robust and quickly transformed into the inspection platform for all inspections, such as site, virtual and self-inspections.
