FATs drag on because open points aren’t owned

Too much time spent writing the same work twice

When notes live in notebooks and files, teams retype them later, so errors slip in and engineers lose time that should go into fixing issues.

Open points disappear until someone escalates

When failed checks sit in long lists without owners, nobody gets nudged to close them, so punch items stall and projects keep bleeding time.

Every factory reinvents the FAT each time

When each site uses its own template, results don’t compare, so teams rebuild formats per customer and spend time aligning instead of commissioning.

How Lumiform works for factory acceptance tests

Build FAT protocols once so every factory runs the same steps, while Lumiform turns failures into tracked actions and generates consistent reports automatically.

1. Build or import your FAT protocol

Import a template or build one in Lumiform, then attach specs to each step so inspectors follow the right reference and submissions stay complete.
  • Import from Excel
  • Mandatory field enforcement
  • No-code form builder
1. Build or import your FAT protocol

2. Run the FAT at the factory or vendor site

Inspectors follow the protocol on mobile, link results to the right machine, and capture photos and comments per step so evidence stays tied to findings.
  • Barcode scan
  • Works fully offline
  • iOS and Android
2. Run the FAT at the factory or vendor site

3. Assign failed checks so they get closed

When a step fails, Lumiform creates an action with an owner and deadline, so project managers see what’s open and what’s overdue.
  • Corrective actions
  • Deadline tracking
  • Fail triggers action
3. Assign failed checks so they get closed

4. Find results fast and prevent repeat failures

Search by serial number or site in order to compare outcomes, spot recurring issues, and generate customer-ready reports from the same captured evidence.
  • Cross-protocol trend
  • Auto-generated PDF reports
  • Centralised results

Faster FAT closure, fewer open points

Teams speed up FAT closure because actions are owned and tracked, while evidence and reports are generated from the same execution data.

more issues resolved pre-delivery

Industries that run factory acceptance tests on Lumiform

Any team commissioning complex equipment needs repeatable FATs because evidence, ownership, and reporting determine whether issues close before shipment and handover.

Industrial machinery & equipment

Industrial machinery & equipment

Commissioning teams run FATs by machine, attach specs per step, and assign failed checks immediately so fixes happen before shipment and sign-off stays clean.

Energy & utilities

Energy & utilities

Quality teams capture evidence at each test point, then generate consistent sign-off reports so stakeholders trust results across turbines, switchgear, and control systems.

Rail & transportation

Rail & transportation

Inspectors track outcomes by unit number and compare runs over time so recurring faults surface early and customer reporting stays consistent without extra rework.

Oil, gas & process engineering

Oil, gas & process engineering

Vendor FATs produce timestamped, structured evidence so client reps can review faster and open points stay tracked until closed before equipment leaves the factory.

Medical device manufacturing

Medical device manufacturing

FATs align to IQ/OQ needs because results, deviations, and approvals are captured in a traceable trail, which supports FDA and CE documentation expectations.

Automation & systems integration

Automation & systems integration

Integrators assign punch items to subcontractors with deadlines so resolution stays visible across projects and customer deliverables come from one controlled data set.

Common questions

Can we upload our existing Excel template instead of rebuilding everything from scratch?

Yes. Lumiform lets you upload an existing Excel file or PDF to generate a new template directly, so you are not starting from a blank form. For large checklists with up to 1,000 test items, this saves significant setup time compared to manual recreation. Once uploaded, you can edit the structure, add logic, and configure fields within the form builder before rolling it out to your teams.

Can we enforce that every field and signature is completed before a report is submitted?

Yes. You can configure forms so that mandatory fields and signature capture are required before submission is allowed. Inspectors cannot submit an incomplete report. This directly addresses the quality problem where inspectors forget to fill in fields or skip uploading a customer signature. Every submitted report contains the complete, structured data you need, with no follow-up chasing required.

When a defect is found, can the inspector attach a photo directly at that checklist item?

Yes. Inspectors capture photos directly at the specific checklist item where a defect is found. The photo is linked to that item in the report, so you can trace exactly which checkpoint it belongs to. This replaces the current approach of managing hundreds of photos in Excel rows and makes it clear during review which photo corresponds to which test point or correction.

Will this handle a checklist with up to 1,000 test items without breaking down?

Lumiform handles large, complex checklists including those with hundreds of test items. You can structure them with sections, conditional logic, and mandatory fields throughout. The mobile app works offline, so inspectors complete the full checklist on the factory floor without depending on a stable connection. This is a direct replacement for large Excel files that become unmanageable at scale with multiple open points and photo attachments.

Can one tech-savvy colleague build and test a protocol before we roll it out?

Yes. One person with admin access can build a protocol in the form builder without IT involvement, then assign it to a small test group before wider rollout. No coding is required. This matches the approach of picking one interested colleague per team, letting them build and test the acceptance protocol with a few others, and using that feedback to confirm the tool works before committing to a full rollout.

Will the output match our required report format exactly, not just export raw data?

Lumiform auto-generates PDF reports from completed inspections, and you can configure the report layout including company name, sections, and information structure. However, if your required format is a fixed mandatory template such as a ZIG/C23 report that must match exactly field-for-field, you should confirm with Lumiform’s team whether the report customization covers your specific format requirements before committing to the tool.

Can inspectors scan a serial number barcode to pull up the right protocol automatically?

Lumiform supports QR code scanning to identify entities such as assets, locations, or units, which can trigger the correct associated form. For alphanumeric serial numbers scanned via an external barcode scanner connected to a Windows PC, you should confirm with Lumiform’s team whether that specific hardware setup is supported. The platform is designed to link inspections to specific entities, but your exact scanner and workstation configuration needs to be verified before deployment.

Can one inspection generate separate reports with different header data per client?

This is a specific requirement that goes beyond Lumiform’s standard report configuration. The platform generates reports per completed inspection, and you can customize report layouts and fields. However, generating four separate client-specific reports from a single inspection, where shared content is identical but header data and product verification sections differ per client, is a workflow you should raise directly with Lumiform’s team to confirm whether it can be configured within current capabilities.

Can we search across all completed protocols by serial number in one central place?

Completed inspections are stored centrally and can be filtered and searched through the analytics and forms sections on the desktop. You can filter by entity, location, date, and other criteria. Whether you can search specifically by serial number across all protocols and pull all 24 fields into a consolidated table view depends on how your entities and forms are configured. Raise this specific database-style query requirement with Lumiform’s team to confirm the right setup.
