Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0009] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings showing its embodiments.

[0010] (Embodiment 1) Embodiment 1 relates to a form of registering patrol record data for equipment construction. In this embodiment, although an example of equipment construction is described, it is not limited thereto, and it can be similarly applied to construction work, civil engineering work, electrical work, piping work, information and communication work, etc. Patrol record data is data collected for the purpose of quality control at the construction site. Note that the patrol record data will be described later.

[0011] FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing the outline of the quality patrol system in equipment construction. The system of this embodiment includes an information processing device 1 and an information processing terminal 2. The information processing device 1 and the information processing terminal 2 transmit and receive information via a network N such as the Internet.

[0012] The information processing device 1 is an information processing device that performs processing, storage, transmission, and reception of various information. The information processing device 1 is, for example, a server device, a personal computer, or a general-purpose tablet PC (personal computer), etc. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the information processing device 1 is a server device, and hereinafter it will be read as server 1 for simplicity.

[0013] The information processing terminal 2 is a terminal device for a person in charge that performs input reception and transmission of patrol record data for equipment construction. The information processing terminal 2 is, for example, an information processing device such as a personal computer terminal, a tablet, a smartphone, a mobile phone, or a wearable device such as a smartwatch. Hereinafter, for simplicity, the information processing terminal 2 will be read as the person-in-charge terminal 2.

[0014] Traditionally, quality patrols in equipment construction projects have required the person in charge (e.g., site representative or site manager) to submit a paper or electronic report. The submitted report is circulated among relevant parties, including the construction team leader, the head of the social infrastructure construction department, the construction department, and quality construction management, and the contents of the report are reviewed or guidance is provided.

[0015] However, because it takes time for reports to be circulated among relevant parties, information transmission may be delayed. To solve this problem, this embodiment provides a quality management system that can centrally manage patrol record data for equipment installation work. Through this quality management system, the rights of all workers can be protected and a safe and secure working environment can be promoted.

[0016] In this embodiment, Server 1 outputs (transmits) a first screen displaying multiple menus related to quality control in equipment construction to the employee terminal 2. When Server 1 receives a selection from the first menu on the first screen, it outputs a second screen to the employee terminal 2 displaying multiple fields for each item, including the implementation timing classification, confirmation items, confirmation status, and input object related to quality control in equipment construction.

[0017] When Server 1 receives input for an input object on the second screen, it outputs a third screen to the user terminal 2 that accepts the selection of a confirmation status for the corresponding confirmation item. When Server 1 receives the selection of a confirmation status on the third screen, it outputs the wording and display style of the confirmation status in the corresponding field of the second screen to the user terminal 2, modified according to the received selection.

[0018] Figure 2 is a block diagram showing an example configuration of Server 1. Server 1 includes a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, a communication unit 13, a reading unit 14, and a large-capacity storage unit 15. Each component is connected by bus B.

The storage unit 12 also temporarily stores data necessary for the control unit 11 to execute arithmetic processing. The communication unit 13 is a communication module for performing communication-related processing, and sends and receives information with the user's terminal 2, etc., via the network N.

[0023] The reading unit 14 reads a portable storage medium 1a, including a CD (Compact Disc)-ROM or DVD (Digital Versatile Disc)-ROM. The control unit 11 may read the control program 1P from the portable storage medium 1a via the reading unit 14 and store it in the large-capacity storage unit 15. Alternatively, the control unit 11 may download the control program 1P from another computer via a network N or the like and store it in the large-capacity storage unit 15. Furthermore, the control unit 11 may also read the control program 1P from the semiconductor memory 1b.

[0024] The large-capacity storage unit 15 includes a recording medium such as an HDD (Hard disk drive) or an SSD (Solid State Drive).

Verification Item Database DB153 stores the content of the verification items and evaluation criteria, etc.

[0026] In this embodiment, the storage unit 12 and the large-capacity storage unit 15 may be configured as a single storage device. Furthermore, the large-capacity storage unit 15 may be composed of multiple storage devices. Moreover, the large-capacity storage unit 15 may be an external storage device connected to the server 1.

[0027] Server 1 may perform various information processing and control processes as a single computer, or it may be performed in a distributed manner across multiple computers. Furthermore, Server 1 may be implemented using multiple virtual machines located within a single server, or it may be implemented using a cloud server.

[0028] Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the record layout for Basic Information DB151 and Confirmation Items DB152.

"Good" indicates that the item to be confirmed meets the prescribed evaluation criteria. "Defective" indicates that there is a serious problem or defect in the item to be confirmed. "Partially Defective" indicates that there is a problem with only a part of the item to be confirmed.

[0038] The Supplementary Information column stores additional or supplementary information regarding the items to be checked. The Planned Improvement Date column stores the date on which improvements or actions are planned for equipment installations with a check status of "Defective" or "Partially Defective." The Photo column stores photographic data related to the items to be checked. The Photo Comment column stores comments or explanations for the photographic data.

[0039] Figure 4 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the record layout of the Confirmation Items DB153. The Confirmation Items DB153 includes columns for Item ID, Type, Item, and Evaluation Criteria. The Item ID column stores the Item ID of each confirmation item, which is uniquely identified to identify the item (content) of each confirmation item.

[0040] The "Type" column stores the types of items classified by common confirmation items for equipment installation work, confirmation items for each implementation period related to quality control, or confirmation items for each type of work. For example, the types of items in common confirmation items include "Common-1" and "Common-2," etc. For example, "Common-1" could be "Are there copies of the contract with the client and subcontractors?", and "Common-2" could be "Are meeting minutes and instruction sheets organized and stored?".

[0041] The types of items in the quality control implementation period classifications include start of work, intermediate, completion, or one-day site visits. The types of items in the quality control implementation period classifications include, for example, "start of work-1," "start of work-2," "intermediate-1," "intermediate-2," "completion-1," or "completion-2."

[0043] The "Item" column stores the content of each item to be checked. The "Evaluation Criteria" column stores the evaluation criteria corresponding to each item to be checked. For example, for an item to be checked, such as "Are meeting minutes and instructions organized and stored?", the evaluation criteria could be "Good: Organized; Poor: Not organized."

[0044] The storage configurations described above for each database are merely examples; other storage configurations are also acceptable as long as the relationships between the data are maintained.

[0045] Figure 5 is a block diagram showing an example configuration of the staff terminal 2. The staff terminal 2 includes a control unit 21, a storage unit 22, a communication unit 23, an input unit 24, and a display unit 25.

[0046] The control unit 21 includes a processing unit such as a CPU or MPU, and performs various information processing and control processing related to the user terminal 2 by reading and executing the control program 2P (program product) stored in the storage unit 22.

[0047] In Figure 5, the control unit 21 is described as a single processor, but it may be a multi-processor system. Furthermore, the control unit 21 may perform various information processing or control processing using the same processor within the user terminal 2, or it may perform these processes using different processors within the user terminal 2.

[0048] The storage unit 22 includes memory elements such as RAM or ROM, and stores the control program 2P or data necessary for the control unit 21 to execute processing. The storage unit 22 also temporarily stores data necessary for the control unit 21 to execute arithmetic processing.

[0049] The communication unit 23 is a communication module for performing communication-related processing and sends and receives information with the server 1, etc., via the network N. The input unit 24 may be a keyboard, mouse, or a touch panel integrated with the display unit 25. The display unit 25 is a liquid crystal display or an organic EL (electroluminescence) display, etc., and displays various information according to the instructions of the control unit 21.

[0050] Figure 6 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the operation of the quality patrol system in equipment installation work. First, the registration process for basic equipment installation details will be explained. Terminal 2 accepts input of basic equipment installation details from the person in charge through the basic details registration screen (Figure 8), which will be described later.

[0051] Basic information includes, but is not limited to, the case ID, patrol date, patrol category (e.g., "New" or "Improvement Confirmation"), branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification (e.g., "Information and Communication Construction"), name of the person who carried out the inspection, email address of the person who carried out the inspection, name of the site representative, and, if the patrol category is "Improvement Confirmation," the case ID of the equipment construction project subject to improvement.

[0052] Terminal 2 sends the received basic information to Server 1. Server 1 registers (stores) the basic information sent from Terminal 2 in the Basic Information DB 151. Specifically, Server 1 assigns a case ID to the received basic information. Server 1 stores the following information as a single record in the Basic Information DB 151, associated with the assigned case ID: patrol implementation date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the implementer, email address of the implementer, name of the site representative, creation date and time, and, if the patrol category is "improvement confirmation," the case ID of the equipment construction project subject to improvement.

[0053] Next, we will explain the registration process for confirmation items corresponding to the registered basic information of the equipment installation work. Terminal 2 of the person in charge accepts input of confirmation items corresponding to the registered basic information from the person in charge through the confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) described later.

[0054] The items to be confirmed include, but are not limited to, the item ID of each item, the confirmation status for that item (e.g., "Not Applicable," "Good," "Incomplete," and "Partially Incomplete"), supplementary information, the planned date for improvement if the confirmation status is "Incomplete" or "Partially Incomplete," photographic data related to the equipment installation work, and comments on the photographic data. Note that photographic data and comments on such photographic data are not mandatory and can be omitted.

[0055] The employee terminal 2 sends the received confirmation items to server 1, associating them with the case ID. Server 1 registers (stores) the confirmation items in the confirmation item DB 152, associating them with the case ID sent from employee terminal 2. Specifically, server 1 stores the item ID, confirmation status, supplementary information, planned improvement date, photo data, and comments on the photo data in the confirmation item DB 152, associating them with the case ID.

[0056] When the employee terminal 2 receives a request to output a report, it sends the received report output request to the server 1. In response to the report output request sent from the employee terminal 2, the server 1 generates a report for each type of equipment construction project, including the project ID (identification information) for the equipment construction, multiple confirmation items, and the confirmation status for each confirmation item, via the report output screen (Figure 12) described later. The server 1 then sends the generated report to the email address of the person conducting the patrol. The report generation and transmission process will be described later.

[0057] After the report is printed, if the employee terminal 2 receives a request to send a photo log for the equipment installation work, it sends the received photo log transmission request to server 1. Server 1 sends multiple equipment installation work items to the employee terminal 2 in response to the photo log transmission request sent from employee terminal 2. The employee terminal 2 receives the multiple equipment installation work items sent from server 1 and displays them on the screen.

[0058] Terminal 2 accepts the selection of a target equipment installation project from multiple projects by the person in charge. When Terminal 2 receives the selection of multiple photo data corresponding to the selected equipment installation project, it generates a photo log containing the selected photo data, the implementation period classification for quality control related to the target equipment installation project, and comments on the photo data. Server 1 sends the generated photo log to the email address of the person conducting the patrol. The process of generating and sending the photo log will be described later.

The Confirmation Items menu 11b is a menu (first menu) for entering common confirmation items and confirmation items for each implementation period classification related to quality control of equipment construction, and transitions to the Confirmation Items registration screen (Figure 9). The Departmental Confirmation Items menu 11c is a menu (second menu) for entering confirmation items for each construction classification of equipment construction, and transitions to the Confirmation Items registration screen for each construction classification (Figure 11).

[0061] The creation status selection field 11d is for selecting the creation status of the equipment installation patrol record data. The creation status selection field 11d includes items such as "Temporarily saved" and "Creation complete". The data registration button 11e is a button for saving the equipment installation patrol record data according to the selected creation status.

[0062] Server 1 generates a menu screen (first screen) that includes a basic items menu 11a, a confirmation items menu 11b, and departmental confirmation items menus 11c. Server 1 sends the generated menu screen to the user's terminal 2. The user's terminal 2 receives the menu screen sent from Server 1 and displays it on its screen.

[0063] When the 담당자 (person in charge) terminal 2 receives a touch (click) operation on the basic information menu 11a, it transitions to the basic information registration screen (Figure 8), which will be described later. When the 담당자 (person in charge) terminal 2 receives a touch (click) operation on the confirmation items menu 11b, it transitions to the confirmation items registration screen (Figure 9), which will be described later. When the 담당자 (person in charge) terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the departmental confirmation items menu 11c, it transitions to the confirmation items registration screen (Figure 11), which will be described later for each construction classification.

[0064] When the operator terminal 2 receives a selection operation in the creation status selection field 11d, it retrieves the selected creation status. When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the data registration button 11e, it sends the selected creation status and the equipment installation patrol record data to the server 1.

[0065] Patrol record data includes basic information (patrol date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the person who carried out the patrol, the email address of the person who carried out the patrol, and the name of the site representative, etc.) and confirmation items (confirmation item ID, confirmation status, supplementary information, planned improvement date, photographs and comments on those photographs, etc.). Basic information is accepted on the basic information registration screen (Figure 8). Confirmation items are accepted on the confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) or the confirmation item registration screen for each construction classification (Figure 11).

[0066] Server 1 receives creation status and patrol record data transmitted from the employee terminal 2, and stores the received patrol record data in Basic Information DB 151 and Confirmation Items DB 152. Specifically, Server 1 stores the basic information and creation status ("temporarily saved" or "created") as a single record in Basic Information DB 151, associated with the case ID. Server 1 also stores the confirmation items as a single record in Confirmation Items DB 152, associated with the case ID.

When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the basic information input complete button 12n, it temporarily saves all the entered (selected) basic information in the storage unit 22 and returns to the menu screen (Figure 7).

[0080] Figure 9 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a screen for registering confirmation items. This screen includes an implementation period display field 13a, an item display field 13b, a confirmation status display field 13c, a status input button (input object) 13d, a confirmation item clear button 13e, and a confirmation item input complete button 13f.

[0081] The Implementation Period Display Field 13a is a display field that shows the implementation period of the equipment construction work. The Item Display Field 13b is a display field that shows the implementation period classification and items of confirmation related to quality control of the equipment construction work. The Confirmation Status Display Field 13c is a display field that shows the confirmation status for the confirmation items. The Status Input Button 13d is a button that transitions to the Confirmation Status Selection Screen (third screen), which accepts the selection of the confirmation status for the corresponding confirmation item.

[0082] The confirmation items clear button 13e is used to clear all entered (selected) confirmation items. The confirmation items input complete button 13f temporarily saves all entered (selected) confirmation items in the memory unit 22 and returns to the menu screen (Figure 7).

[0083] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch (selection) operation for confirmation item menu 11b on the menu screen (Figure 7), it sends a transition request to the confirmation item registration screen to the server 1. The transition request includes the project ID and implementation period of the equipment construction registered on the basic information registration screen (Figure 8).

[0084] Server 1 generates a confirmation item registration screen (second screen) in response to a transition request sent from the user's terminal 2. On the confirmation item registration screen, the implementation period display field 13a is displayed. In addition, on the confirmation item registration screen, multiple item display fields 13b, confirmation status display fields 13c, and status input buttons (input objects) 13d are displayed for each confirmation item.

[0085] Furthermore, for each item to be confirmed, the item display field 13b, the confirmation status display field 13c, and the status input button 13d may be provided in a single field. In this embodiment, an example has been described in which the status input button 13d is a button, but it is not limited to this, and may be an icon, for example.

[0086] Server 1 retrieves the implementation date of the equipment construction (e.g., "start of construction") from Basic Information DB151 based on the project ID. Based on the retrieved implementation date, Server 1 retrieves common confirmation items and confirmation items corresponding to the implementation date from Confirmation Item DB153. For example, Server 1 retrieves common confirmation items corresponding to "Common-1" and "Common-2," and confirmation items corresponding to the implementation date of "Start of Construction-1" and "Start of Construction-2" from Confirmation Item DB153.

[0087] Server 1 displays the acquired confirmation items in the corresponding item display field 13b. For example, Server 1 displays common confirmation items vertically from the top of the screen, and displays confirmation items corresponding to the implementation period below the common confirmation items, similarly arranged vertically. Note that the above display format is just an example, and any display format may be used according to actual needs.

[0088] Server 1 sends the registration screen for the generated confirmation items to the employee terminal 2. The employee terminal 2 receives and displays the registration screen for the confirmation items sent from Server 1.

[0089] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the status input button 13d, it sends a request to the server 1 for input of the confirmation status for the relevant confirmation item. The input request includes the implementation period and item ID corresponding to the relevant confirmation item.

[0090] Server 1 generates a confirmation status selection screen (Figure 10) that accepts the selection of a confirmation status for the corresponding confirmation item in response to the confirmation status input request sent from the employee terminal 2. Server 1 sends the generated confirmation status selection screen to the employee terminal 2. The employee terminal 2 receives and displays the confirmation status selection screen sent from Server 1.

[0091] Figure 10 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a confirmation status selection screen. Content that overlaps with Figure 9 is denoted by the same reference numerals and its explanation is omitted. This screen includes a confirmation status selection field 14a, an evaluation criteria button 14b, an evaluation criteria display field 14c, a supplementary information input field 14d, an improvement plan date input field 14e, a photo comment input field 14f, a photo delete button 14g, a photo selection field 14h, and a content save button 14i.

[0092] The confirmation status selection field 14a is a field for selecting the confirmation status for the confirmation item. The evaluation criteria button 14b is a button for displaying the evaluation criteria for the confirmation item. The evaluation criteria display field 14c is a display field for displaying the evaluation criteria for the confirmation item. The supplementary information input field 14d is a field for entering supplementary information for the confirmation item.

[0093] The Improvement Plan Date Input Field 14e is for entering the planned date for implementing corrective measures for any deficiencies found during the verification process. The Photo Comment Input Field 14f is for entering comments on photo data related to the equipment installation work. The Photo Delete Button 14g is for deleting (erasing) the selected photo data.

[0094] The photo selection field 14h is for selecting and displaying photo data related to the equipment installation work. The content save button 14i is for temporarily saving the selected confirmation status, entered supplementary information and planned improvement date, as well as the selected photo data and comments on the photo data, to the storage unit 22 for the relevant confirmation item.

[0095] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a selection operation in the confirmation status selection field 14a, it obtains the selected confirmation status ("Not applicable", "Good", "Incomplete", or "Partially Incomplete", etc.).

[0096] When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the evaluation criteria button 14b, it switches the evaluation criteria display field 14c from hidden to visible and retrieves the corresponding evaluation criteria from the confirmation item item DB 153 of server 1 based on the item ID of the confirmation item. The operator terminal 2 displays the retrieved evaluation criteria in the evaluation criteria display field 14c. Furthermore, when the operator terminal 2 receives another touch operation on the evaluation criteria button 14b, it switches the evaluation criteria display field 14c from visible to hidden.

[0097] When the staff terminal 2 receives an input operation in the supplementary information input field 14d, it retrieves the supplementary information for the entered confirmation item. When the staff terminal 2 receives an input operation in the improvement plan date input field 14e, it retrieves the entered improvement plan date.

[0098] When the operator terminal 2 receives a selection operation in the photo selection field 14h, it displays the selected photo data from the storage unit 22 or an external memory device (e.g., USB (Universal Serial Bus)) in the photo selection field 14h. When the operator terminal 2 receives an input operation in the photo comment input field 14f, it retrieves a comment for the entered photo data. When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the photo delete button 14g, it deletes the photo data displayed in the photo selection field 14h.

[0099] When the user terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the content save button 14i, it temporarily saves the selected confirmation status, entered supplementary information and planned improvement date, as well as the selected photo data and comments on the photo data, to the storage unit 22 and sends a request to the server 1 to return to the confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9). The request includes the item ID corresponding to the confirmation item and the selected confirmation status, etc.

[0100] Server 1 changes the text and display format of the confirmation status display field 13c on the confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) in response to a request sent from the person in charge terminal 2. For example, if the selected confirmation status is "Not Applicable", Server 1 sets the text in the confirmation status display field 13c to "Not Applicable" and changes the background to gray. Alternatively, if the selected confirmation status is "Good", Server 1 sets the text in the confirmation status display field 13c to "Good" and changes the background to green.

[0101] Alternatively, if the selected confirmation status is "Incomplete," Server 1 sets the text in the confirmation status display field 13c to "Incomplete" and changes the background to red. Furthermore, if the selected confirmation status is "Partially Incomplete," Server 1 sets the text in the confirmation status display field 13c to "Partially Incomplete" and changes the background to yellow.

[0102] The above-mentioned wording and display methods are not the only options. For example, a confirmation status of "Partially Incomplete" could be labeled "Warning <Partially Incomplete>". Display methods are not limited to color changes; for example, changes to the background pattern (e.g., diagonal hatching sloping upwards to the right), font style (bold or italic, etc.), addition of icons (checkmark or warning mark, etc.), or changes to the thickness or color of the border may also be used.

[0103] Server 1 sends a confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) with modified wording and display format in the confirmation status display field 13c to the user terminal 2. The user terminal 2 receives and displays the modified confirmation item registration screen sent from Server 1.

[0104] Next, returning to Figure 9, if the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the confirmation item clear button 13e, it clears all the entered (selected) confirmation items. If the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the confirmation item input complete button 13f, it temporarily saves all the entered (selected) confirmation items in the storage unit 22 and returns to the menu screen (Figure 7).

[0105] Figure 11 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a registration screen for confirmation items for each construction category of equipment installation work. Note that content that overlaps with Figure 9 is denoted by the same reference numerals and its explanation is omitted.

[0106] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch (selection) operation for each departmental confirmation item 11c on the menu screen (Figure 7), it sends a transition request to the server 1 to transition to the registration screen for the confirmation items of the corresponding construction category. The transition request includes the project ID and construction category of the equipment construction registered on the basic information registration screen (Figure 8).

[0107] Server 1 generates a registration screen (fourth screen) for the confirmation items of the relevant construction category in response to a transition request sent from the person in charge terminal 2. On the registration screen for the confirmation items of the construction category, multiple item display fields 13b, confirmation status display fields 13c, and status input buttons (input objects) 13d are displayed for each confirmation item. The item display field 13b is a display field that displays the construction category and confirmation items for the equipment construction.

[0108] Server 1 retrieves the construction classification (information and communication construction or construction work, etc.) of the equipment construction work from Basic Information DB151 based on the project ID. Based on the retrieved construction classification, Server 1 retrieves the items of confirmation corresponding to that construction classification from Confirmation Items DB153. For example, Server 1 retrieves the items of confirmation corresponding to the construction classifications "Construction-1", "Construction-2", and "Construction-3" from Confirmation Items DB153.

[0109] Server 1 displays the acquired confirmation items in the corresponding item display field 13b. For example, Server 1 displays the confirmation items corresponding to the construction classification arranged vertically from the top of the screen. Note that the above display format is just an example, and any display format may be used according to actual needs. Note that in Figure 11, the implementation period display field 13a is displayed as blank.

[0110] Figure 12 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a report output screen. This screen includes a report display area 15a and a message display area 15d. The report display area 15a is a display area for displaying reports for equipment installation work. The report display area 15a includes a basic information display area 15b and a confirmation information display area 15c. The basic information display area 15b is a display area for displaying basic information for equipment installation work. The confirmation information display area 15c is a display area for displaying confirmation information for equipment installation work. The message display area 15d is a display area for displaying messages regarding the transmission status of the report, etc.

[0111] When the operator terminal 2 receives a selection operation in the creation status selection field 11d on the menu screen (Figure 7), it retrieves the selected creation status. When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the data registration button 11e, it sends the selected creation status and the equipment installation patrol record data to the server 1.

[0112] Server 1 receives the creation status and patrol record data transmitted from the person in charge terminal 2, and stores the received patrol record data in the basic information DB 151 and the confirmation items DB 152. If the creation status selected in the creation status selection field 11d is "Creation Completed", Server 1 obtains the confirmation status for each confirmation item included in the patrol record data.

[0113] Server 1 determines whether there are any defects in the equipment installation based on the confirmation status for each acquired confirmation item. For example, if the confirmation status for any of the confirmation items is "partially defective" or "defective," Server 1 determines that there are defects in the report. Alternatively, if the confirmation status for all confirmation items is not "partially defective" or "defective," Server 1 determines that there are no defects in the report.

[0114] Server 1, if there are no deficiencies in the document, names the document file according to a predetermined naming rule. The naming rule can be set arbitrarily, and for example, it is in the format "ID_Case ID_File Creation Date[Project Name].pdf". As an example, the document file name may also be "ID_8116 20240925[△△ vicinity 〇〇 Renovation Project].pdf".

[0115] Furthermore, if there are any deficiencies in the report, Server 1 inserts a predetermined character (for example, "X") at a predetermined position in the file name of the report, which has been named according to a predetermined naming rule. For example, Server 1 inserts a predetermined character (for example, "X") after the "Case ID" to name the report file "ID_8116_X_20240925[△△ vicinity 〇〇 renovation work].pdf".

[0116] The process is not limited to the above-mentioned operations. For example, if the confirmation status for all confirmation items is "partially incomplete," Server 1 will determine that the report is "partially incomplete." Alternatively, if the confirmation status for all confirmation items is "incomplete," Server 1 will determine that the report is "incomplete." Then, depending on whether it is "partially incomplete" or "incomplete," the report file name can be assigned according to a predetermined naming rule.

[0117] For example, in the case of "partially incomplete," Server 1 inserts a predetermined first character (e.g., "X") at a predetermined position in the file name of the report, which has been named according to a predetermined naming rule. Similarly, in the case of "completely incomplete," Server 1 inserts a predetermined second character (e.g., "Y") at a predetermined position.

[0118] Server 1 uses the assigned file name to generate a report for each type of equipment installation work, including basic information and confirmation items. In this way, the file name of the report can be changed depending on whether or not there are any deficiencies in the equipment installation work.

[0119] Note that the report file is not limited to PDF format; it may also be in other formats such as Word®, Excel®, or image files.

[0120] Server 1 sends the generated report to the patrol officer's terminal 2. The patrol officer's terminal 2 displays the report sent from Server 1 in the report display area 15a. Specifically, the terminal 2 displays the basic information included in the report in the basic information display area 15b, and the confirmation items included in the report in the confirmation item display area 15c.

[0121] As shown in the diagram, the basic information includes the date of the patrol, patrol category, case ID, branch name, type of equipment installation work ("general construction," "electrical work," "piping work," "air conditioning work," "fire prevention work," "communication work," "civil engineering work," or "equipment renovation work," etc.), construction classification, implementation period, patrol operator, site representative, construction number, and project name. The confirmation items include multiple confirmation items, as well as the evaluation (confirmation status) of each confirmation item, supplementary information, and planned improvement date.

[0122] Terminal 2 of the person in charge displays a message on its screen indicating that the form will be sent to the person conducting the patrol. For example, the message may read: "★Preparing to send the document★" Please wait here. This message will disappear when the message is being sent. It could also say, "A button will appear once the submission is complete."

[0123] Server 1 sends the generated report to the email address of the patrol operator, which is included in the basic information of the patrol record data. The process of sending the report by email is explained in Figure 13. Server 1 stores the transmission status of reports marked as "sent" and the generated report in the basic information DB 151, associating them with the project ID of the equipment installation work.

[0124] Figure 13 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a screen for receiving and displaying documents via email address. This screen includes a file attachment field 16a, a field for displaying the name of the person who performed the patrol 16b, and a field for displaying the email body 16c. The file attachment field 16a is a display field for displaying documents sent from Server 1 as attachments. The field for displaying the name of the person who performed the patrol 16b is a display field for displaying the name of the person who performed the patrol 16c. The email body display field 16c is a display field for displaying the body of the email sent to the person who performed the patrol 16c.

[0125] Server 1 retrieves the name and email address of the patrol officer from the patrol record data. Server 1 sends an email containing the generated report, the retrieved name of the patrol officer, and the email body to the patrol officer's email address. The patrol officer's terminal 2 receives the email sent from Server 1 and displays it on the screen.

[0126] Specifically, terminal 2 displays the received form in the file attachment field 16a and the name of the patrol officer in the officer name display field 16b. Terminal 2 also displays the email body in the email body display field 16c. As shown in the diagram, the form file is "ID_8116_X_20240925[△△ vicinity 〇〇 renovation work].pdf". The name of the patrol officer is "Mr. / Ms. ×× ××". The email body includes a statement that the form has been sent, contact information (e.g., "Social Infrastructure Management Headquarters"), and a link to the procedure (manual).

[0127] Next, returning to Figure 12, after the form has been sent to the patrol officer's email address, the officer's terminal 2 displays a message in the message display area 15d indicating that the form has been sent. For example, the message could be "★Form transmission complete★". In this case, the officer's terminal 2 generates a photo selection button 15e and a home button 15f, and displays the generated photo selection button 15e and home button 15f on the message display area 15d.

[0128] The photo selection button 15e is a button that accepts a request to send a photo log for equipment installation work and transitions to the photo log screen (Figure 14), which will be described later. The home button 15f is a button that returns to the menu screen (Figure 7). When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the photo selection button 15e, it transitions to the photo log screen. When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the home button 15f, it returns to the menu screen.

[0129] Figure 14 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the photo log screen. Figure 14A is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the equipment work selection screen. Figure 14A includes the data loading information field 17a, the data loading button 17b, and the equipment work selection list 17c. The data loading information field 17a is a display field that shows information indicating the loading status of multiple equipment work. The data loading (to be pressed when the application stops) button 17b is a button for reloading multiple equipment work in the event of a malfunction such as the application stopping.

[0130] The equipment installation selection list 17c is an area for displaying a list of multiple loaded equipment installations. The equipment installation selection list 17c includes an item field 17d for displaying the basic information of each equipment installation, and a selection button 17e for accepting the selection of an equipment installation corresponding to the item field 17d.

[0131] When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the photo selection button 15e on the report output screen (Figure 12), it sends a request to the server 1 to send the photo log for the equipment installation work. Until it receives responses for multiple equipment installation work in response to the photo log transmission request, the operator terminal 2 displays information indicating the loading status of multiple equipment installation work in the data loading information field 17a.

[0132] Information indicating the loading status includes, for example, screen transition information and the remaining seconds until the transition. "please wait a moment The screen will switch automatically. It can also be written as "Remaining: × seconds".

[0133] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the data read button 17b, it sends a request to server 1 again to send the photo log for the equipment installation work.

[0134] Server 1, in response to a photo log transmission request sent from the person in charge terminal 2, retrieves basic information for multiple equipment installation projects from the basic information DB 151. The basic information includes the project ID, patrol date, project number, and project name. Server 1 transmits the retrieved basic information for multiple equipment installation projects to the person in charge terminal 2.

[0135] Terminal 2 displays the basic information of multiple equipment installation projects transmitted from Server 1 in the equipment installation selection list 17c. Specifically, Terminal 2 displays the basic information of each equipment installation project (project ID, patrol date, project number, and project name, etc.) in the respective item fields 17d.

[0136] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the selection button 17e corresponding to the equipment construction work, it passes the project ID of the selected equipment construction work to the photo selection screen (Figure 14B) and transitions to the photo selection screen.

[0137] Figure 14B is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a photo selection screen. This screen includes a selection completion button 17h and a photo list 17f. The selection completion button 17h is a button that, after accepting the selection of one or more photos to be output to the photo log, transitions to the photo log submission screen (Figure 14C).

[0138] The photo list 17f is an area that displays a list of multiple photo data corresponding to the selected equipment work. The photo list 17f includes a photo field 17g for displaying each photo. The person in charge terminal 2 retrieves photo data corresponding to each confirmation item of the equipment work from the confirmation item DB 152 based on the project ID of the equipment work received from the equipment work selection screen (Figure 14A).

[0139] Terminal 2 displays the photo data corresponding to each acquired confirmation item in the corresponding photo field 17g. As shown in the diagram, the photo field 17g displays the selected photo data, the classification of the implementation period related to quality control of the equipment construction (e.g., "commencement of work"), and a comment on the photo data (e.g., "meeting minutes").

[0140] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a selection operation for the photo field 17g corresponding to the photo to be selected, it changes the display mode of the photo field 17g to indicate that the photo has been selected (for example, the background pattern). The display mode may include, for example, changing the text color, background pattern or background color of the photo field 17g, displaying a check mark, or adding a border (for example, a thick line).

[0141] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch operation of the selection completion button 17h, it transfers the selected single or multiple photos to the photo album transmission screen (Figure 14C) and transitions to the photo album transmission screen.

[0142] Figure 14C is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a photo log transmission screen. This screen includes a log transmission button 17i, a home button 15f, and a page switching button 17j. The log transmission button 17i is used to send the photo log to the email address of the patrol officer. The home button 15f is used to return to the menu screen (Figure 7). The page switching button 17j is used to switch between pages of the photo log.

[0143] Terminal 2 displays the photos (single or multiple) received from the photo selection screen (Figure 14B) in the respective photo fields 17g of the photo list 17f. When Terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the home button 15f, it returns to the menu screen. When Terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the page switching button 17j, it switches between the previous and next pages of the photo log.

[0144] When the operator's terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the ledger transmission button 17i, it sends a photo ledger transmission request to the server 1. The photo ledger transmission request includes the photo data displayed in each photo field 17g, the classification of the implementation period related to quality control of the equipment construction work, and comments on the said photo data.

[0145] Server 1, in response to a photo log transmission request sent from the person in charge's terminal 2, assigns a photo log ID to the photo log to be transmitted. Server 1 then sends the photo log page by page to the patrol operator's email address, associating it with the assigned photo log ID. The photo log contains selected photo data, a classification of the implementation period related to quality control of the equipment installation work, and comments on the photo data.

[0146] Furthermore, Server 1 uses the assigned photo log ID to name the photo log file according to a predetermined naming rule. The naming rule can be set arbitrarily and is in the format, for example, "ID_number_file_creation_date_photo_page_number.pdf". "ID_number" is the photo log ID, for example, "ID_573". As an example, the photo log file name could be "ID_573_20241011_photo1.pdf".

[0147] Please note that the photo log file is not limited to PDF format; it can also be in other formats such as Word, Excel, or image files.

[0148] For example, Server 1 associates the photo log ID with the photo log ID for the two-page photo log and sends the first-page and second-page photo log to the implementer's email address in two separate emails. However, the sending process is not limited to the above. For example, Server 1 may send both the first-page and second-page photo log to the implementer's email address in a single email.

[0149] Server 1 stores the printing status of photo logs marked as "completed," the photo log ID, and the photo log file in the basic information DB151, associating them with the photo log ID.

[0150] Figure 15 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of receiving and displaying a photo log via email address. Content that overlaps with Figure 13 is denoted by the same reference numerals and its explanation is omitted.

[0151] Server 1 retrieves the names and email addresses of the patrol personnel from the patrol record data. Server 1 sends the generated photo log one page at a time to the email address of the patrol personnel. The patrol personnel's terminal 2 receives the email sent from Server 1 and displays it on the screen.

[0152] Specifically, terminal 2 displays the photo log in the file attachment field 16a and the name of the patrol officer in the officer name display field 16b. Terminal 2 also displays the email body in the email body display field 16c.

[0153] As shown in the diagram, the photo log attached to the first email is "ID_573_20241011_Photo_1.pdf", and the photo log attached to the second email is "ID_573_20241011_Photo_2.pdf". The name of the person who conducted the patrol is "Mr. / Ms. XX XX". The body of the email includes a statement that the photo log has been sent. For example, the body of the email could be, "The photo log of the quality patrol you conducted is now complete and is being sent to you. Please circulate it to the relevant departments."

[0154] Figure 16 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure when registering patrol record data for equipment installation work. The control unit 11 of server 1 generates a menu screen (Figure 7) that includes a basic items menu 11a, a confirmation items menu 11b, and departmental confirmation items menus 11c (step S101). The control unit 11 transmits the generated menu screen to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S102).

[0155] The control unit 21 of the operator terminal 2 receives the menu screen transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S201). The control unit 21 displays the received menu screen using the display unit 25 (step S202).

[0156] The control unit 21 receives a request for registration of basic information from the person in charge via the input unit 24 (step S203). For example, the control unit 21 receives a request for registration of basic information via the input unit 24 through a touch operation of the basic information menu 11a. The control unit 21 transmits the received basic information registration request to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S204).

[0157] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives a registration request for basic information sent from the user terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S103). In response to the received registration request for basic information, the control unit 11 executes a subroutine for registering the basic information (step S104). The subroutine for registering basic information will be described later.

[0158] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives the employee's request to register confirmation items via the input unit 24 (step S205). For example, the control unit 21 receives the request to register confirmation items via the input unit 24 through a touch operation of the confirmation items menu 11b. The control unit 21 transmits the received confirmation item registration request to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S206).

[0159] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives a registration request for confirmation items sent from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S105). In response to the received registration request for confirmation items, the control unit 11 executes a subroutine for registering the confirmation items (step S106). The subroutine for registering confirmation items will be described later.

[0160] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives the employee's request to register confirmation items for each construction category via the input unit 24 (step S207). For example, the control unit 21 receives the request to register confirmation items for each construction category via the input unit 24 through touch operation of each department confirmation item menu 11c. The control unit 21 transmits the received request to register confirmation items for each construction category to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S208).

[0161] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives a registration request for confirmation items for each construction category sent from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S107). In response to the received registration request for confirmation items, the control unit 11 executes a subroutine for registering confirmation items for each construction category (step S108). The subroutine for registering confirmation items for each construction category will be described later. The control unit 11 then terminates the process.

[0162] Figure 17 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of a subroutine for registering basic information. The control unit 11 of Server 1 generates a registration screen for basic information (Figure 8) which includes a patrol date input field 12a, a patrol category selection field 12b, a branch name selection field 12c, a type selection field 12d, an implementation period selection field 12e, a construction number input field 12f, a construction project name input field 12g, a construction classification selection field 12h, a construction number search button 12i, an implementer input field 12j, an email address input field 12k, and a site representative input field 12l (Step S01).

[0163] The control unit 11 transmits the generated basic information registration screen to the user terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S02). The control unit 21 of the user terminal 2 receives the basic information registration screen transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S03). The control unit 21 displays the received basic information registration screen via the display unit 25 (step S04).

[0164] The control unit 21 accepts input (selection) of basic information by the person in charge via the basic information registration screen using the input unit 24 (step S05). Basic information includes, but is not limited to, the case ID, patrol implementation date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the implementer, email address of the implementer, name of the site representative, and the case ID of the equipment construction project subject to improvement when the patrol category is "improvement confirmation".

[0165] The control unit 21 transmits the received basic information to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S06). The control unit 11 of the server 1 receives the basic information transmitted from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S07). The control unit 11 stores (registers) the received basic information in the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 (step S08).

[0166] Specifically, the control unit 11 assigns a case ID to the received basic information. The control unit 11 stores the following information as a single record in the basic information DB 151, associated with the assigned case ID: patrol implementation date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the implementer, email address of the implementer, name of the site representative, creation date and time, and, if the patrol category is "improvement confirmation," the case ID of the equipment construction project to be improved. The control unit 11 then finishes the subroutine for registering basic information and returns.

[0167] Figure 18 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the subroutine for registering confirmation items. The control unit 11 of Server 1 generates a confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) which includes an implementation time display field 13a, an item display field 13b for each confirmation item, a confirmation status display field 13c, and a status input button 13d (Step S11).

[0168] The control unit 11 transmits the generated basic information registration screen, associated with the project ID of the target equipment construction project, to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S12). The control unit 21 of the person in charge terminal 2 receives the project ID and confirmation item registration screen transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S13). The control unit 21 displays the received confirmation item registration screen via the display unit 25 (step S14).

[0169] When the control unit 21 receives a request from the person in charge to input a confirmation status for the relevant confirmation item via the input unit 24 (step S15), it transmits the received confirmation status input request to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S16). Specifically, when the control unit 21 receives a touch operation of the status input button 13d on the confirmation item registration screen via the input unit 24, it transmits a confirmation status input request corresponding to the relevant confirmation item to the server 1 via the communication unit 23. The confirmation status input request includes the implementation date and item ID, etc.

[0170] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives a confirmation status input request sent from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S17). In response to the received confirmation status input request, the control unit 11 generates a confirmation status selection screen (Figure 10) that accepts the selection of a confirmation status for the corresponding confirmation item (step S18).

[0171] The status confirmation screen includes a confirmation status selection field 14a, a supplementary information input field 14d, an improvement plan date input field 14e, a photo comment input field 14f, and a photo selection field 14h, etc. The control unit 11 transmits the generated confirmation status selection screen to the user terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S19). The control unit 21 of the user terminal 2 receives the confirmation status selection screen transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 13 (step S20). The control unit 21 displays the received confirmation status selection screen using the display unit 25 (step S21).

[0172] The control unit 21 receives the selection of a confirmation status ("Not Applicable", "Good", "Incomplete", or "Partially Incomplete", etc.) for the item being confirmed by the person in charge via the input unit 24 (step S22). Specifically, the control unit 21 receives the selection operation in the confirmation status selection field 14a via the input unit 24 and obtains the received confirmation status. The control unit 21 also receives supplementary information, photo data, and comments on the photo data for the item being confirmed via the confirmation status selection screen.

[0173] The control unit 21 transmits the received confirmation status, supplementary information, photo data, and comments on the photo data to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S23). The control unit 11 of the server 1 receives the confirmation status, supplementary information, photo data, and comments on the photo data transmitted from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S24).

[0174] Based on the received confirmation status, the control unit 11 changes the wording (e.g., "Not Applicable") and display style (e.g., change the background to gray) of the confirmation status display field 13c on the confirmation item registration screen (Figure 9) (step S25). The control unit 11 transmits the modified confirmation item registration screen to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S26).

[0175] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives the registration screen of the changed confirmation items sent from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S27). The control unit 21 displays the received registration screen of the changed confirmation items via the display unit 25 (step S28). The control unit 21 transmits the confirmation items entered (selected) by the employee to the server 1 via the communication unit 23, corresponding to the project ID of the equipment installation work (step S29).

[0176] The items to be confirmed include, but are not limited to, the confirmation status, supplementary information, the planned date for improvement if the confirmation status is "Incomplete" or "Partially Incomplete," photographic data related to the equipment installation work, and comments on the photographic data, all associated with the item ID of each item. Note that photographs and comments on them are not mandatory and may be omitted.

[0177] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives the case ID and confirmation items transmitted from the employee terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S30). The control unit 11 associates the received case ID with the confirmation items and stores (registers) them in the confirmation items DB 152 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 (step S31). Specifically, the control unit 11 associates the case ID with each confirmation item and stores the item ID, confirmation status, supplementary information, planned improvement date, photo data, and comments on the photo data in the confirmation items DB 152. The control unit 11 finishes the subroutine for registering the confirmation items and returns.

[0178] The subroutine for registering confirmation items for each construction category is the same as the subroutine for registering confirmation items described above, so its explanation will be omitted.

[0179] Figure 19 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure when sending a form. The control unit 21 of the operator terminal 2 receives the creation status of patrol record data, including basic information and confirmation items, via the input unit 24 through the selection operation of the creation status selection field 11d on the menu screen (Figure 7) (step S211). The control unit 21 acquires the patrol record data of the equipment work received via the registration screen for basic information (Figure 8) and the registration screen for confirmation items (Figure 9) from the storage unit 22 (step S212).

[0180] The control unit 21 transmits the received creation status and acquired patrol record data to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S213). The control unit 11 of the server 1 receives the creation status and patrol record data transmitted from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S111).

[0181] The control unit 11 determines whether the creation status is "completed" (step S112). If the creation status is not "completed" (NO in step S112), the control unit 11 terminates the process. If the creation status is "completed" (YES in step S112), the control unit 11 obtains the confirmation status for each confirmation item included in the patrol record data (step S113).

[0182] The control unit 11 determines whether or not there are any defects in the equipment installation work based on the confirmation status for each confirmation item obtained (step S114). For example, if the confirmation status for any of the confirmation items is "partially defective" or "defective," the control unit 11 determines that there are defects in the form. Alternatively, if the confirmation status for all confirmation items is not "partially defective" or "defective," the control unit 11 determines that there are no defects in the form.

[0183] If there are no deficiencies in the form (NO in step S114), the control unit 11 determines the first form file name according to a predetermined naming rule (step S115). The naming rule can be set arbitrarily and is in the format, for example, "ID_Case ID_File Creation Date_Project Name.pdf". The control unit 11 then proceeds to the process in step S117, which will be described later.

[0184] If there are deficiencies in the form (YES in step S114), the control unit 11 determines the second form file name by inserting a predetermined character (for example, "X") at a predetermined position (for example, after "Case ID") in the first form file name, which has been named according to a predetermined naming rule (step S116).

[0185] The control unit 11 generates a report for each type of equipment installation work, including basic information and confirmation items, using the file name of the assigned report (step S117). The control unit 11 transmits the generated report to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S118). The control unit 21 of the person in charge terminal 2 receives the report transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S214). The control unit 21 displays the received report using the display unit 25 (step S215).

[0186] The control unit 11 of server 1 sends the generated report via the communication unit 13 to the email address of the patrol operator included in the basic information (step S119). The control unit 11 stores the transmission status of the reports marked "transmission complete" and the generated reports in the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15, associating them with the project ID of the equipment construction (step S120). The control unit 11 then terminates the process.

[0187] Figure 20 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure when sending a photo log. The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives a photo log transmission request from the employee via the input unit 24 (step S221). Specifically, the control unit 21 receives a photo selection button 15e on the report output screen (Figure 12) as a photo log transmission request. The control unit 21 sends the received photo log transmission request to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S222).

[0188] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives a photo log transmission request from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S121). In response to the received photo log transmission request, the control unit 11 retrieves basic information for multiple equipment construction projects from the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 (step S122). The basic information includes the project ID, patrol implementation date, construction number, and construction project name. The control unit 11 transmits the retrieved basic information for multiple equipment construction projects to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S123).

[0189] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives basic information on multiple equipment construction projects transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 13 (step S223). The control unit 21 displays the received basic information on multiple equipment construction projects via the display unit 25 (step S224). The control unit 21 accepts the selection of the target equipment construction project from the multiple equipment construction projects by the employee via the input unit 24 (step S225). The control unit 21 transmits the case ID of the selected target equipment construction project to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S226).

[0190] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives the case ID of the equipment construction project transmitted from the employee terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S124). Based on the received case ID, the control unit 11 retrieves multiple photographic data corresponding to each confirmation item of the equipment construction project from the confirmation item DB 152 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 (step S125). The control unit 11 transmits the retrieved multiple photographic data to the employee terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S126).

[0191] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives multiple photo data transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S227). The control unit 21 displays the received multiple photo data via the display unit 25 (step S228). The control unit 21 accepts the selection of photo data to be sent to the photo ledger (target photo data) from the multiple photo data via the input unit 24 (step S229). The control unit 21 transmits the selected target photo data to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S230).

[0192] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives the target photo data transmitted from the employee terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S127). Based on a preset number of photos that can be displayed on one page (for example, 5), the control unit 11 generates a photo log one page at a time using the received target photo data (step S128). Each page of the photo log includes the selected photo data, a classification of the implementation period related to quality control of the equipment construction work, and comments on the photo data.

[0193] The control unit 11 sends the generated photo log to the patrol operator's email address via the communication unit 13 (step S129). Specifically, the control unit 11 assigns a photo log ID to the photo log to be sent. Using the assigned photo log ID, the control unit 11 names the photo log file according to a predetermined naming rule. The naming rule can be set arbitrarily, for example, in the format "ID_number_file_creation_date_photo_page_number.pdf". The control unit 11 sends the photo log page by page to the patrol operator's email address via the communication unit 13, corresponding to the assigned photo log ID.

[0194] The control unit 11 stores the generated photo log in the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 (step S130). Specifically, the control unit 11 stores the printing status of the photo log that is "completed", the photo log ID, and the photo log file in the basic information DB 151, associated with the photo log ID. The control unit 11 then terminates the process.

[0195] According to this embodiment, it becomes possible to accept registration of patrol record data (basic information and confirmation items) for equipment installation work.

[0196] According to this embodiment, it is possible to output a first menu for inputting common confirmation items and confirmation items for each implementation period classification related to quality control of equipment construction work, and a second menu for inputting confirmation items for each construction classification of the equipment construction work, to the menu screen (Figure 7).

[0197] According to this embodiment, it is possible to output reports for each type of equipment installation work.

[0198] According to this embodiment, it is possible to output a photo log containing the target photo data, a classification of implementation periods related to quality control of equipment construction work, and comments on the photo data, associated with the photo log identification information (photo log ID).

[0199] (Embodiment 2) Embodiment 2 relates to a method for copying patrol record data of registered equipment installation work. Note that explanations of content that overlaps with Embodiment 1 will be omitted. When a deficiency in a registered equipment installation work is corrected, the confirmation status for the corrected item is changed to "good," and this is stored (registered) as new patrol record data in the basic items DB151 and the confirmation items DB152. By registering the corrected item as new patrol record data in this way, the change history becomes clear, making it easier to compare or trace past data.

[0200] In this embodiment, when Server 1 receives a request to copy registered patrol record data for equipment installation work, it reads the patrol record data from Basic Information DB151 and Confirmation Items DB152. Based on the read patrol record data, Server 1 generates new patrol record data for the equipment installation work.

[0201] Figure 21 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a patrol record data copy screen. Figure 21A is an explanatory diagram showing an example of an equipment work list screen. This screen includes an equipment work list 18a, a data update button 18d, and a sort button 18e. The equipment work list 18a is a display field that shows multiple equipment work entries.

[0202] The equipment installation list 18a includes an equipment installation information display field 18b and a project selection button 18c. The equipment installation information display field 18b is a display field that shows patrol record data of the equipment installation, including basic items and confirmation items, and status information indicating the status of defects ("no defects" or "defects found," etc.). The project selection button 18c accepts the selection of patrol record data of the equipment installation to be copied and is a button that transitions to the equipment installation details screen (Figure 21B).

[0203] The data update button 18d is a button that reloads the patrol record data for registered equipment installation work. The sort button 18e is a button that accepts the setting of the display order of the equipment installation work list. The display order includes descending or ascending order based on the project ID, etc.

[0204] Server 1 retrieves basic information for multiple equipment installation projects from the Basic Information DB 151 based on the project ID of each installation project. Basic information includes, for example, the date of patrol, project number, project name, implementation period, report transmission status, and photo log printing status. Note that basic information is not limited to the above information; it may also include, for example, patrol classification, branch name, or type of equipment installation (e.g., "general construction").

[0205] Server 1 retrieves the confirmation status for multiple confirmation items corresponding to the basic requirements of each equipment installation project from the Confirmation Items DB152, based on the project ID of the equipment installation project. The confirmation status includes not applicable, good, incomplete, and partially incomplete. Based on the retrieved confirmation status, Server 1 obtains status information indicating the degree of incompleteness in each equipment installation project (for example, "incomplete" or "no incompleteness").

[0206] Server 1 generates a list of equipment installations that includes basic information on multiple equipment installations and status information for each installation. Server 1 sends the generated list of equipment installations to the person in charge terminal 2. The person in charge terminal 2 receives the list of equipment installations sent from Server 1 and displays the received list of equipment installations in the equipment installation list 18a.

[0207] Specifically, the employee terminal 2 displays the project ID, patrol date, project number, project name, implementation period, report transmission status, photo log printing status, and status information indicating any deficiencies for each equipment installation project in the equipment installation information display field 18b of the corresponding equipment installation list 18a.

[0208] When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the data update button 18d, it reads the patrol record data for the registered equipment work again and updates the equipment work list 18a with the read patrol record data. When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the sort button 18e, it sorts the multiple equipment work displayed in the equipment work list 18a in descending or ascending order based on the case ID.

[0209] For example, if the text on the sort button 18e of the operator terminal 2 is "ID: Descending" and the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the sort button 18e, the operator terminal 2 sorts the multiple equipment installations displayed in the equipment installation list 18a in descending order based on the project ID. After that, the operator terminal 2 changes the text on the sort button 18e to "ID: Ascending".

[0210] Furthermore, if the text on the sort button 18e on the operator terminal 2 is "ID: Ascending" and the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the sort button 18e, the operator terminal 2 sorts the multiple equipment installations displayed in the equipment installation list 18a in ascending order based on the project ID. After that, the operator terminal 2 changes the text on the sort button 18e to "ID: Descending".

[0211] When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the project selection button 18c corresponding to the target equipment work from the equipment work list, it passes the basic information of the selected equipment work to the equipment work details screen (Figure 21B) and transitions to the equipment work details screen (Figure 21B).

[0212] Figure 21B is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the details screen for equipment installation work. This screen includes the project details display field 18f, the request acceptance field 18g, and the execution button 18h.

[0213] The project details display field 18f is a display field that shows detailed information about the selected equipment installation work. The request acceptance field 18g is a field that accepts the selection of the creation status (request), including "copy," "resend," or "for management." The execution button 18h is a button that performs the corresponding action on the patrol record data according to the creation status selected in the request acceptance field 18g.

[0214] Terminal 2 displays the basic information of the equipment work received from the equipment work list screen (Figure 21A) in the project details display field 18f. As shown in the figure, the project ID, patrol date, work number, and project name of the equipment work are displayed in the project details display field 18f.

[0215] When the user terminal 2 receives a selection operation in the request reception field 18g, it retrieves the selected creation status. The creation status includes "Copy," "Resend," and "For Management." "Copy" refers to a request to copy (duplicate) the patrol record data of the selected equipment work as new patrol record data. "Resend" refers to a request to resend the patrol record data of the selected equipment work to the user terminal 2 of the corresponding user. "For Management" refers to a request to send the patrol record data of the selected equipment work to the administrator's user terminal 2.

[0216] When the operator terminal 2 receives a touch operation on the execution button 18h, it sends the creation status (request) selected in the request reception field 18g, associated with the equipment construction project ID, to the server 1. The server 1 receives the project ID and creation status sent from the operator terminal 2. The server 1 then performs the appropriate processing according to the received creation status.

[0217] For example, if the creation status is "copy," Server 1 performs the process of copying (duplicating) the patrol record data of the selected equipment construction as new patrol record data. Specifically, Server 1 reads the basic information of the equipment construction from Basic Information DB151 based on the case ID. The basic information includes, but is not limited to, the case ID, patrol date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the implementer, email address of the implementer, and name of the site representative.

[0218] Server 1 assigns a new case ID to the acquired basic information. Server 1 copies the acquired basic information in association with the assigned case ID and stores it in the basic information DB151 as new patrol record data. Server 1 sends the case ID of the copied patrol record data (hereinafter referred to as copied patrol record data) to the person in charge terminal 2.

[0219] The operator's terminal 2 accepts the selection of an improved confirmation status (for example, "Good") on the confirmation status selection screen (Figure 10) via the confirmation status selection field 14a, based on the case ID of the copy patrol record data transmitted from server 1. In the case of improvement confirmation, confirmation is not required for items that do not have defects, so the confirmation status of these items can be set to "Not Applicable". In other words, when improvement confirmation is performed, the confirmation status of items that do not require confirmation will also be set to "Not Applicable".

[0220] Terminal 2 of the person in charge sends the received improved confirmation status to Server 1, associating it with the case ID of the copy patrol record data. Server 1 receives the case ID of the copy patrol record data and the confirmation status for the improved confirmation item sent from Terminal 2 of the person in charge. Server 1 stores the confirmation status for the improved confirmation item in the confirmation item DB 152, associating it with the case ID of the received copy patrol record data.

[0221] Furthermore, if the operator's terminal 2 receives supplementary information, photo data, and comments regarding the photo data on the confirmation status selection screen, it will send the confirmation status, supplementary information, photo data, and comments regarding the photo data to server 1.

[0222] Alternatively, if the creation status is "Retransmission," Server 1 resends the patrol record data for the selected equipment installation to the person in charge terminal 2. Furthermore, if the creation status is "For management," Server 1 also sends the patrol record data for the selected equipment installation to the administrator's terminal device (for example, administrator terminal 3 in Embodiment 3 described later).

[0223] Figure 22 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure when copying patrol record data. The control unit 11 of server 1 generates a list of equipment work including multiple equipment work (step S141). Specifically, based on the project ID of the equipment work, the control unit 11 retrieves basic information of multiple equipment work (patrol implementation date, work number, project name, implementation period, status of report transmission or photo log printing status, etc.) from the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15.

[0224] Based on the project ID of the equipment construction work, the control unit 11 retrieves the confirmation status for multiple confirmation items corresponding to the basic items of each equipment construction work from the confirmation item DB 152 of the large-capacity storage unit 15. Based on the acquired confirmation status, the control unit 11 acquires status information indicating the deficiency status of each equipment construction work (for example, "deficiency present" or "no deficiency"). The control unit 11 generates an equipment construction list that includes the acquired basic items of the multiple equipment construction works and the status information of each equipment construction work.

[0225] The control unit 11 transmits the generated equipment work list to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S142). The control unit 21 of the person in charge terminal 2 receives the equipment work list transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S241). The control unit 21 displays the received equipment work list via the display unit 25 (step S242). The control unit 21 accepts the selection of the target equipment work from among multiple equipment work via the input unit 24 (step S243).

[0226] The control unit 21 receives a copy request for patrol record data corresponding to the case ID of the selected equipment installation work via the input unit 24 (step S244). The control unit 21 transmits the selected equipment installation work and the received copy request to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S245). The control unit 11 of the server 1 receives the equipment installation work and copy request transmitted from the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S143).

[0227] In response to a received copy request, the control unit 11 reads the basic information of the equipment construction project from the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 as patrol record data based on the project ID of the equipment construction project (step S144). The basic information includes, but is not limited to, the project ID, patrol date, patrol category, branch name, type, implementation period, construction number, construction project name, construction classification, name of the implementer, email address of the implementer, and name of the site representative.

[0228] The control unit 11 assigns a new case ID to the acquired basic information (step S145). The control unit 11 copies the acquired basic information in association with the assigned case ID and stores it in the basic information DB 151 as new patrol record data (copy patrol record data) (step S146). The control unit 11 transmits a confirmation status selection screen (Figure 10) based on the copy patrol record data to the person in charge terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S147).

[0229] The control unit 21 of the employee terminal 2 receives the confirmation status selection screen sent from the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S246). The control unit 21 displays the received confirmation status selection screen via the display unit 25 (step S247). The control unit 21 accepts the selection of an improved confirmation status (for example, "good") via the input unit 24 through the confirmation status selection field 14a (step S248). The control unit 21 associates the received improved confirmation status with the case ID of the copy patrol record data and transmits it to the server 1 via the communication unit 23 (step S249).

[0230] The control unit 11 of server 1 receives the case ID and the confirmation status for the improved confirmation items of the copy patrol record data transmitted from the employee terminal 2 via the communication unit 13 (step S148). The control unit 11 stores the confirmation status for the improved confirmation items in the confirmation item DB 152 of the large capacity storage unit 15, corresponding to the case ID of the received copy patrol record data (step S149). The control unit 11 then terminates the process.

[0231] According to this embodiment, when a request to copy patrol record data corresponding to the project ID of an equipment installation is received, it becomes possible to copy the registered patrol record data of the equipment installation.

[0232] (Embodiment 3) Embodiment 3 relates to a configuration for outputting statistical information on equipment installation work. Note that explanations of content that overlaps with Embodiments 1 and 2 will be omitted.

[0233] Figure 23 is an explanatory diagram showing an overview of the quality patrol system in equipment construction according to Embodiment 3. Note that the same reference numerals are used for parts that overlap with Figure 1, and their explanations are omitted. The system of this embodiment further includes an information processing terminal 3. Server 1, personnel terminal 2, and information processing terminal 3 transmit and receive information via a network N such as the Internet.

[0234] Information processing terminal 3 is a terminal device for administrators that receives and displays statistical information on equipment installation work. Information processing terminal 3 can be, for example, a personal computer terminal, tablet, smartphone, mobile phone, or wearable device such as a smartwatch. For simplicity, in the following text, information processing terminal 3 will be read as administrator terminal 3.

[0235] Figure 24 is a block diagram showing an example configuration of the administrator terminal 3. The administrator terminal 3 includes a control unit 31, a storage unit 32, a communication unit 33, an input unit 34, and a display unit 35. Note that the configuration of the administrator terminal 3 is the same as that of the staff terminal 2, so a detailed explanation is omitted.

[0236] Figure 25 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a screen displaying a list of equipment installation work for administrators. Server 1 retrieves basic information for each equipment installation work from the Basic Information DB 151 based on the project ID (identification information) of each equipment installation work. Basic information includes, for example, the date of patrol, the work number, the project name, the implementation period, the status of creation of patrol record data, the status of transmission of reports, and the printing status of the photo log. Note that the basic information is not limited to the information described above and may also include, for example, the patrol category, branch name, type of equipment installation work, implementation period, or project name.

[0237] Server 1 retrieves multiple confirmation items corresponding to the basic details of each equipment installation project, as well as the confirmation status for each confirmation item, from the Confirmation Item DB152, based on the project ID of each equipment installation project. Note that the confirmation items may include not only the confirmation status, but also supplementary information, the planned date for improvement if the status is "deficient" or "partially deficient," photographic data related to the equipment installation project, or comments on the photographic data.

[0238] Server 1 aggregates the number of items for which the confirmation status is "partially incomplete" or "incomplete" for each equipment installation project. Server 1 then generates an equipment installation list for administrators, which displays a list of the number of "partially incomplete" or "incomplete" items for each equipment installation project, the creation status of patrol record data, the transmission status of reports, the printing status of photo logs, the project number, the patrol operator, multiple confirmation items, and the confirmation status for each confirmation item, all associated with the acquired project ID.

[0239] Server 1 sends the generated list of equipment installations for administrators to administrator terminal 3. Administrator terminal 3 receives the list of equipment installations for administrators sent from server 1 and displays it on its screen.

[0240] As shown in the diagram, the project ID for each equipment installation, the number of "partially incomplete" or "incomplete" cases, the creation status of patrol record data ("completed" or "temporarily saved," etc.), the status of document transmission ("transmitted" or "not sent," etc.), photo printing status ("completed," "before work," or "not created / no photos," etc.), the project number, the person who conducted the patrol, multiple confirmation items, and the confirmation status for each confirmation item are displayed in the equipment installation list for administrators.

[0241] Furthermore, the list of equipment installation work for administrators may include not only the information described above, but also other information included in the basic and confirmation items (for example, branch name, implementation period, or work classification).

[0242] Figure 26 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a statistical information display screen. This screen includes a statistical information display area 19a and a detailed information display area 19b.

[0243] The statistical information display field 19a displays statistical information for each type of equipment installation work, including the total number of equipment installation works for each predetermined unit period, the number of equipment installation works without defects, and the number of equipment installation works that have been improved. The detailed information display field 19b displays detailed information for each equipment installation work, associated with the project ID of the equipment installation work, including the type of work, status information indicating the degree of defects, improvement status, and implementation date.

[0244] First, Server 1 obtains detailed information for each equipment installation project from Basic Information DB151 and Confirmation Information DB152, associating it with the project ID of each equipment installation project.

[0245] Specifically, Server 1 obtains the following information from Basic Information DB151, associated with the project ID of each equipment construction project: patrol category, patrol date, branch name, construction classification, implementation period, type, construction number, project name, patrol operator, and, if the patrol category is "improvement confirmation," the project ID of the equipment construction project subject to improvement.

[0246] Server 1 retrieves multiple confirmation items for each equipment construction project, as well as the confirmation status, supplementary information, and planned improvement date for each confirmation item, from the Confirmation Items DB152, associating them with the project ID of each equipment construction project.

[0247] Server 1 determines whether there are any defects in the equipment installation based on the confirmation status for each acquired confirmation item. For example, if the confirmation status for any of the confirmation items is "partially defective" or "defective," Server 1 determines that there are defects in the equipment installation. Alternatively, if the confirmation status for all confirmation items is not "partially defective" or "defective," Server 1 determines that there are no defects in the equipment installation.

[0248] Server 1 obtains the project IDs of equipment construction projects that are subject to improvement, based on the project IDs of equipment construction projects whose patrol classification is "Improvement Confirmation". Based on the obtained project IDs of equipment construction projects subject to improvement, Server 1 identifies the confirmation items from the confirmation item DB152 whose confirmation status is "Defective" or "Partially Defective". For the identified confirmation items, Server 1 determines whether the confirmation status of the confirmation item corresponding to the project ID of the equipment construction project whose patrol classification is "Improvement Confirmation" is "Good". If the confirmation status is "Good", Server 1 determines the improvement status to be "Improvement Completed".

[0249] Next, Server 1 compiles statistical information based on the acquired detailed information, categorized by the type of equipment installation work. Specifically, Server 1 compiles statistical information for each type of equipment installation work, including the total number of equipment installations for a predetermined unit period (T), the number of equipment installations without defects (X), the number of equipment installations that received feedback or guidance (A), the number of equipment installations that were improved (B), and the number of equipment installations that were carried over (C).

[0250] The classification of facility construction work includes, for example, "overhead power distribution line construction," "underground power distribution line construction," "power generation and transformation construction," "overhead power transmission line construction," "underground power transmission line construction," "civil engineering work," "renewable energy construction," "nuclear power construction," and "information and communication construction."

[0251] A "specified period" is a period set up for the purpose of aggregating statistical information, and is a regularly divided time unit such as a week, month, or quarter. The total number of equipment installation projects (T=X+A+B) is the sum of the number of equipment installation projects without defects (X), the number of equipment installation projects that received feedback or guidance (A), and the number of equipment installation projects that were improved (B).

[0252] The number of equipment installations without defects (X=TAB) is calculated by subtracting the number of equipment installations that received criticism or guidance (A) and the number of equipment installations that were improved (B) from the total number of equipment installations (T).

[0253] The number of equipment installations that received criticism or guidance (A) is calculated by totaling the number of cases with equipment installation defects for each specified period (e.g., "month"). The number of equipment installations that were improved (B) is calculated by totaling the number of cases where the equipment installation patrol category was "improvement confirmed" for each specified period (e.g., "month").

[0254] The number of carried-over equipment construction projects (C) is the number of equipment construction projects that were carried over from the previous reporting period without being completed. In the initial reporting period (for example, April), the number of carried-over equipment construction projects (C=AB) is calculated by subtracting the number of improved equipment construction projects (B) from the number of equipment construction projects that received criticism / guidance (A). Furthermore, in subsequent reporting periods (for example, from May to March of the following year), the number of carried-over equipment construction projects (C=AB - number of projects carried over from the previous period) is calculated by subtracting the number of improved equipment construction projects (B) and the number of projects carried over from the previous period (for example, the number of projects carried over from April) from the number of equipment construction projects that received criticism / guidance (A).

[0255] Server 1 aggregates statistical information based on the acquired detailed information using the statistical information aggregation method described above. Server 1 sends the aggregated statistical information and the acquired detailed information to administrator terminal 3. Administrator terminal 3 receives the statistical information and detailed information sent from server 1. Administrator terminal 3 displays the received statistical information in the statistical information display field 19a and the received detailed information in the detailed information display field 19b.

[0256] As shown in the figure, the statistical information display section 19a displays the total number of equipment construction projects ("Total"), the number of equipment construction projects without defects ("Normal"), the number of equipment construction projects that received criticism or guidance ("Critical Engineering Works"), the number of equipment construction projects that were improved ("Improvement Confirmed"), and the number of equipment construction projects that were carried over ("Carried Over") for each predetermined unit period (for example, from April to March of the following year), categorized by construction project type, including "Overhead Power Distribution Line Construction," "Underground Power Distribution Line Construction," "Power Generation and Transformation Works," "Overhead Power Transmission Line Construction," "Underground Power Transmission Line Construction," "Civil Engineering Works," "Renewable Energy Works," "Nuclear Power Construction," and "Information and Communication Works."

[0257] In addition, the detailed information display section 19b displays the project ID for each equipment installation, patrol classification, information indicating whether or not there are defects in the equipment installation (e.g., defects: "○", no defects: blank), information indicating whether or not the improvement status is "improvement completed" (e.g., improvement completed: "○", not improved: blank), the project ID of the equipment installation subject to improvement if the patrol classification is "improvement confirmation", the date of the patrol, the branch name, the work classification, the implementation period, the type, the work number, the project name, the patrol operator, as well as multiple confirmation items, the confirmation status for each confirmation item, supplementary information, and the planned improvement date.

[0258] Furthermore, regarding the display of information indicating whether or not there are defects in the equipment installation work, for example, if there are defects, the background of the item marked "Defective" may be set to red, and if there are no defects, the background of the column may be set to white. Regarding the display of information indicating whether or not the improvement status is "Improvement Completed," for example, if the improvement status is completed, the background of the column marked "Improvement Completed" may be set to blue, and if the improvement status is not yet improved, the background of the column may be set to white.

[0259] Regarding the display of the confirmation status for the items to be confirmed, for example, if the confirmation status is "Incomplete," the background of the confirmation status field may be set to red, and if the confirmation status is "Partially Incomplete," the background of the field may be set to yellow.

[0260] However, the display methods are not limited to those described above. For example, you may change the text color or background pattern of the field to be modified, display a check mark, or add a border (for example, a thick border).

[0261] Figure 27 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure when sending an equipment installation list to administrators. The control unit 11 of server 1 retrieves basic information for each equipment installation (patrol implementation date, installation number, installation name, implementation period, patrol record data creation status, report transmission status, and photo ledger printing status, etc.) from the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15 based on the project ID of each equipment installation (step S131).

[0262] The control unit 11 retrieves multiple confirmation items corresponding to the basic matters of each equipment construction project, as well as the confirmation status for each confirmation item, from the confirmation item DB 152 of the large-capacity storage unit 15, based on the project ID of each equipment construction project (step S132). The control unit 11 then aggregates the number of confirmation items for which the confirmation status is "partially incomplete" or "incomplete" for each equipment construction project (step S133).

[0263] The control unit 11 generates an equipment construction list for administrators, which is associated with the acquired project ID for each equipment construction project and outputs a list display that shows the number of "partially incomplete" or "incomplete" equipment construction projects, the status of patrol record data creation, the status of report transmission, the status of photo log printing, the project number, the patrol operator, multiple confirmation items, and the confirmation status for each confirmation item. (Step S134)

[0264] The control unit 11 transmits the generated list of equipment installations for administrators to the administrator terminal 3 via the communication unit 13 (step S135). The control unit 31 of the administrator terminal 3 receives the list of equipment installations for administrators transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 33 (step S331). The control unit 31 displays the received list of equipment installations for administrators via the display unit 35 (step S332). The control unit 31 terminates processing.

[0265] Figure 28 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure for outputting statistical information on equipment installation work. The control unit 11 of server 1 obtains basic information for each equipment installation work (patrol category, patrol date, branch name, work classification, implementation period, type, work number, project name, patrol operator, and, if the patrol category is "improvement confirmation", the project ID of the equipment installation work subject to improvement, etc.) from the basic information DB 151 of the large-capacity storage unit 15, associating it with the project ID of each equipment installation work (step S151).

[0266] The control unit 11 obtains multiple confirmation items for each equipment construction project, as well as the confirmation status, supplementary information, and planned improvement date for each confirmation item, from the confirmation item DB 152 of the large-capacity storage unit 15, associated with the project ID of each equipment construction project (step S152). Based on the confirmation status for each confirmation item obtained, the control unit 11 determines whether or not there are any deficiencies in the equipment construction project (step S153).

[0267] The control unit 11 determines the improvement status of equipment work for which the patrol classification is "improvement confirmation" (step S154). Specifically, the control unit 11 obtains the case ID of the equipment work to be improved from the basic information DB 151 based on the case ID of the equipment work for which the patrol classification is "improvement confirmation". Based on the obtained case ID of the equipment work to be improved, the control unit 11 identifies the confirmation items for which the confirmation status is "deficient" or "partially deficient" from the confirmation item DB 152.

[0268] The control unit 11 determines whether the confirmation status of the item corresponding to the project ID of the equipment construction project whose patrol category is "improvement confirmation" is "good" for the identified item to be checked. If the confirmation status is "good", the control unit 11 determines the improvement status to be "improvement completed".

[0269] Based on the acquired detailed information, the control unit 11 aggregates statistical information for each construction classification of the facility construction using the above-described statistical information aggregation method (step S155). The control unit 11 transmits the aggregated statistical information and the acquired detailed information to the administrator terminal 3 via the communication unit 13 (step S156). The control unit 31 of the administrator terminal 3 receives the statistical information and the detailed information transmitted from the server 1 via the communication unit 33 (step S351). The control unit 31 displays the received statistical information on the display unit 35 (step S352). The control unit 31 ends the process.

[0270] According to this embodiment, it is possible to output (transmit) to the administrator terminal 3 a list display in which the confirmation status for each confirmation item of each facility construction, the output status of forms, and information regarding photo data are arranged in association with the case ID of each facility construction stored in the large-capacity storage unit 15.

[0271] According to this embodiment, it is possible to output (transmit) the detailed information for each facility construction and the statistical information aggregated for each construction classification of the facility construction to the administrator terminal 3.
