Case Study: Tesco achieves real-time electrical compliance and lifecycle cost savings with TPN Retail's TraQit and QR code solution

Tesco - Customer Case Study

Tesco required a comprehensive fixed wiring inspection and testing service for its vast estate of thousands of stores and petrol stations. The challenge was to deliver a complete managed compliance service that exceeded standard practices, utilizing the latest technology to provide real-time reporting, ensure regulatory adherence, and create practical working efficiencies for Tesco's maintenance teams without utilizing their staff time. The vendor, TPN Retail, worked to address this with its TraQit service.

TPN Retail developed a solution using its unique TraQit interactive website and a new companion mobile app. The innovative system used QR codes affixed to electrical panels, which engineers could scan with their smartphones to instantly access and update all records and certificates on site. This provided Tesco with real-time, accurate, and consolidated data, satisfying the stringent requirements of the Electricity at Work Regulations. By implementing this system, TPN Retail demonstrated that considerable future cost savings on inspection cycles could be achieved while ensuring full legal compliance for the customer.
