Who this template is for
Preventive Maintenance Check is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.
- Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in facilities & property management.
- Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 16 questions across 2 screens.
- Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 6 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
- It pins the request to a specific date.
- It scores satisfaction on a consistent scale.
- Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Fire safety” is Fail, the form dynamically exposes “Issues found”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Fire safety” is Fail, “Issues found” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Overall condition” is less than 3, the form dynamically exposes “Escalate to manager?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Overall condition” is less than 3, “Escalate to manager?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
Can I add more systems to the checklist?
Yes — duplicate one of the pass or fail questions and keep the three answer options identical so reporting still aggregates.
How often should inspections run?
Follow the asset manufacturer's interval and any statutory requirement; quarterly is common for building systems.
Does it replace statutory certification?
No. It records routine condition checks; statutory inspections still need the certificate their scheme requires.
What happens to failures?
Convert them into a Work Order Form so the repair carries an approver, a budget code and a completion sign-off.
