Work Orders

From flagged issue to completed repair, tracked end to end

Failed inspection items flow directly into work orders. Assign, track, and close from web or mobile.

What ReSpark changes about work orders

The old way creates work. ReSpark replaces it.

Without ReSpark
Maintenance requests are verbal, lost in email, or tracked on whiteboards.
Parts used and labor hours are not tracked against individual repairs.
Completed work is not linked to equipment records for service history.
With ReSpark
Structured workflow from request through completion for every repair.
Full cost tracking with parts, labor, and outside services per work order.
Every completed repair builds the equipment service history automatically.

Every repair tracked from start to finish.

Frequently asked questions.

How do work orders get created?

Automatically from failed inspection items and from PMs coming due, or manually when someone spots a problem. Every route lands in the same centralized queue.

What gets tracked on a work order?

Assignee, parts consumed, labor hours, and cost — with a timestamped timeline of the whole job: created, assigned, parts logged, labor logged, closed.

Can mechanics close work orders from the shop floor?

Yes. Work orders are assigned, updated, and closed from the mobile app, so the record is created where the work happens instead of on a clipboard that reaches the office days later.

Is there an audit trail?

Every repair carries a full audit trail, and the asset's service history is complete and permanent. When you're deciding whether to rebuild or replace, the history is already there.

Where does work order cost end up?

Rolled into the asset's maintenance cost, total cost of ownership, and your maintenance spend analytics — automatically, with no separate cost-entry step.
