Project Selection Questions
Project selection questions in uAuditor allow inspectors to select a project from the organization’s predefined projects list during an inspection. This helps link inspections to operational initiatives, workstreams, campaigns, or temporary assignments beyond fixed locations.
Project selection improves tracking of inspection activities across structured operational programs.
What Are Project Selection Questions?
A project selection question enables inspectors to choose a project from a dynamic list configured inside the account.
Projects function similarly to locations but are typically used to represent:
- temporary initiatives
- operational programs
- construction phases
- rollout campaigns
- audit cycles
- special assignments
The selected project becomes part of the inspection record and supports project-level reporting.
Why Use Project Selection Questions
Project selection questions help organizations:
- track inspections by initiative instead of location
- monitor project execution quality
- support temporary operational workflows
- organize inspections across campaigns
- improve visibility for cross-location activities
- analyze performance by program or rollout phase
They enable structured inspection tracking beyond branch-level reporting.
When to Use Project Selection Questions
Project selection questions are especially useful when inspections involve:
- rollout programs across multiple branches
- construction or maintenance phases
- compliance audit campaigns
- seasonal operational initiatives
- temporary improvement programs
- pilot implementations
They help group inspections under shared operational objectives.
How to Add a Project Selection Question
To add a project selection question to a template:
- Open the Templates module
- Select the required template
- Open the target Page
- Select the appropriate Section
- Click Add Question
- Enter the question title
- Select Project as the response type
- Save the question
Inspectors will then be able to select a project during inspections.
Example Use Cases for Project Selection Questions
Organizations commonly use project selection questions for:
- Operational Rollouts
- Example: “Select the rollout program related to this inspection.”
- Construction Monitoring
- Example: “Choose the construction phase covered by this inspection.”
- Compliance Campaigns
- Example: “Select the audit campaign associated with this inspection.”
- Improvement Initiatives
- Example: “Select the performance improvement project being evaluated.”
These selections help structure inspections across operational initiatives.
How Project Selection Affects Reporting
When a project is selected during inspection:
- inspections are linked to the selected project
- dashboards reflect project activity
- performance can be analyzed by initiative
- filters support project-based tracking
- corrective actions can be monitored per project
This improves visibility across multi-location programs.
Best Practices for Using Project Selection Questions
To configure project selection questions effectively:
- use them for temporary or initiative-based inspections
- maintain clear project naming conventions
- avoid duplicating location selection unless necessary
- place the question near the beginning of inspections
- review project-level reports regularly
Project selection questions help organizations organize inspections around operational initiatives and improve visibility across programs that span multiple locations or teams.
