Toilet Survey Project For Bharat Sevashram Sangha, Delhi:

Toilet Survey:

  • Organize a comprehensive survey of all toilets built in 2014 to assess their current condition.
  • Equip surveyors with a mobile application designed for data collection, equipped with features for photograph capture and condition assessment.
  • Ensure that surveyors thoroughly inspect each toilet, noting down any damages, defects, or maintenance issues observed.
  • Capture photographs of each toilet from different angles to provide visual documentation of their condition.
  • Use the mobile application to record relevant information such as location, construction materials, usage frequency, and any additional observations deemed necessary.

Data Upload To Client Server:

  • Establish a secure connection between the mobile application and the client server to facilitate seamless data transfer.
  • Develop protocols for data encryption and authentication to safeguard sensitive information during transmission.
  • Enable surveyors to upload survey data, including photographs and condition assessments, directly to the REC server in real-time or batch mode.
  • Implement data validation checks to ensure the accuracy and completeness of uploaded information before it is stored on the server.

Budget Calculation For Repairs Or Rebuilds:

  • Compile the survey data collected from the mobile application into a centralized database for analysis.
  • Utilize a standardized methodology or algorithm to assess the severity of damages and estimate repair or rebuild costs for each toilet.
  • Factors to consider in budget calculation may include the extent of structural damage, required materials, labor costs, and prevailing market rates for construction services.
  • Develop a budget template or tool that allows for dynamic input of survey data and automatically generates cost estimates based on predefined criteria.
  • Incorporate provisions for contingencies and unforeseen expenses to ensure realistic budget projections.

Reporting And Decision-Making:

  • Generate comprehensive reports summarizing the findings of the toilet survey, including detailed assessments of each toilet’s condition and recommended actions for repairs or rebuilds.
  • Present budget calculations in a clear and transparent manner, highlighting key cost drivers and assumptions used in the estimation process.
  • Share survey reports and budget proposals with relevant stakeholders, including REC officials, local authorities, and community representatives, for review and decision-making.
  • Encourage stakeholder engagement and participation in prioritizing repair or rebuild projects based on
    budget constraints and community needs.
