No ReKeying — Every Service Agreement Renewed, Every Visit Logged Automatically

Maintenance agreements are your most profitable recurring revenue — and the ones most likely to slip through the cracks. Renewal dates buried in a spreadsheet, missed visits never billed, customers who forgot they had a contract. No ReKeying means every agreement visit is dispatched, logged, and billed without manual follow-through.

Growth Rate

Fire sprinkler inspectors complete NFPA 25 ITM reports that can run 20–40 pages for a commercial occupancy — covering main drain tests, alarm valve checks, dry pipe valve inspections, and head condition assessments. Paper ITM reports that are incomplete, illegible, or not submitted to the AHJ on time expose both the contractor and the building owner to fire code violations and insurance policy voidance.

How Maintenance Agreement Tracking Actually Looks in Fire Sprinkler Systems

The Scenario

A fire sprinkler company has inspection agreements on 65 buildings covering quarterly wet system inspections, annual dry valve trips, and 5-year obstruction investigations. The 5-year investigation schedule was maintained in a spreadsheet that wasn't updated when building ownership changed. Three buildings are now overdue.

The Real Impact

Overdue 5-year obstruction investigations on fire sprinkler systems create insurance coverage gaps — and in some jurisdictions, direct AHJ violations that require system shutdown until the investigation is completed.

Does This Sound Like Your Fire Sprinkler Systems Operation?

  • !Maintenance agreement visits get skipped and nobody notices until the customer calls
  • !Renewal dates are tracked in a spreadsheet that someone forgets to check
  • !Agreement customers get treated like one-off jobs — no priority scheduling

The Cost of Doing Nothing

A missed maintenance agreement visit is lost revenue and a broken promise. If 10% of your agreement visits are missed, a $50K/month agreement base leaks $5K/month — $60K/year — in unbilled work.
