Reporting and taking part

Do people need an app or an account to submit a report?

No. A QR code or link opens the form directly in the browser. Residents, staff and tenants can submit a report without installing an app or creating an account.

More details
Can someone submit a report without a QR code?

Yes. The form can also be opened through a link. An address and map pin identify the location; a QR code on the asset can prefill its saved location and the link to the asset.

More details
Can a QR code show information before someone reports an issue?

Yes. A QR code can open the public asset page. Visitors see its name, description, responsible departments and approved images. You can share playground guidance or construction project information, for example. An action on that page opens a report linked to the same asset.

More details
Do we need to replace the QR code when information changes?

No. As long as the asset and QR code remain active, the existing code continues to lead to the same asset. Your team can maintain its description and images in the platform. Updated information appears the next time the page is opened, without reprinting the sign.

More details
Can we choose what appears after a scan?

Yes. A QR code can open the asset page, go straight to a report or offer a choice between the two. A construction-site sign can start with information, while a label on equipment can lead directly to reporting.

More details
Are photos and contact details required?

No. Both are optional. A photo often helps the team understand the problem; contact details allow follow-up questions or notifications when needed.

More details
How do people find out what happens to their report?

After submission, they receive a confirmation with a private link. They can use it to follow progress or withdraw their report. Email notifications can also be used when the relevant contact details have been provided.

More details
Which languages does Power Local support?

The platform supports German, French, Italian and English. This website is available in German, French and English. Your team’s own text and asset descriptions appear in the language in which they are written.

Working together

Is Power Local suitable for a small team?

Yes. Start with the scope your team needs for everyday work. Modules such as tasks, inventory and files can be enabled for each installation. There are no per-user fees.

Does Power Local also suit forestry operations, schools or property management?

Yes, wherever a team looks after objects in fixed places and receives reports about them. Besides municipalities and public works, that includes schools and sports grounds, properties and caretaking, playgrounds and construction sites, and also forestry operations or cemeteries. A QR code on the object opens its page or the report directly, and the report reaches the team in charge. Reporting needs an internet connection; for places without mobile coverage we clarify this beforehand.

Can we create our own tasks without a public report?

Yes. The team can create internal tasks directly, assign them to a person and set a due date. They are organised in the same workspace as incoming reports.

What about issues that still come in by phone or email?

Staff can enter these issues in the platform themselves. Responsibility, status, comments and subsequent work then follow the same workflow. This does not imply an automatic import from an email inbox.

Can equipment and facilities be linked to reports?

Yes. Inventory assets can have their own QR labels. A report started from a label retains its link to the asset; linked reports and tasks remain accessible from that asset's entry. The inventory also supports recording check-outs and returns.

Can we inspect playgrounds, vehicles or facilities with a checklist?

Yes. Per category you set a checklist and its rhythm, for example every three months; a single asset can have its own list. A due checklist appears as a report on the board. Authorised staff scan the QR code on the asset and fill it in on site; a defect becomes a report on the asset straight away. A completed checklist is never changed again and stays in the history of the asset as proof. The public does not see it.

Where do we keep plans, manuals and other documents?

The file module provides folders, file versions and a recycle bin. Relevant documents can be linked to reports or tasks. Roles control which folders each person can see.

Getting started and running the platform

Where is our data stored?

Your data is hosted by the agreed provider. Before setup, we clarify the hosting location, backups and responsibilities for ongoing operation.

Can different teams have different access?

Yes. Roles and individual permissions can be managed, while departments reflect who is responsible for the work. You can decide who may handle reports, manage inventory or view particular folders.

How is our data protected in Power Local?

Access to reports and files is restricted to authorised people. Encrypted connections protect data in transit. Access rights and retention periods are defined for your organisation; we discuss privacy and security requirements with you in advance.

Can we use our own logo and workflows?

Yes. The logo, colours, map area and legal texts are installation settings. Categories, departments and responsibilities are also adapted to your organisation.

How does the rollout work?

First, we clarify your workflows, the teams involved and the scope you need. Standard setup covers installation, your logo, colours and basic configuration. Data migration, team introductions or training, and custom adaptations are scoped and charged separately according to the work involved.

How are the costs calculated?

The annual licence per installation costs CHF 1,188 for Compact and CHF 2,388 for Together. This is equivalent to CHF 99 or CHF 199 per month when billed annually. One-time standard setup starts at CHF 490 or CHF 990, respectively. Larger scopes receive a custom quote. Prices exclude VAT, billed annually in advance, hosting separate. All current modules, including checklists, and unlimited users and reports are included. For municipalities with 5,001 to 8,000 residents: CHF 1,188 plus CHF 0.40 per additional resident per year.

Analytics and future development

Are analytics and key metrics already available?

Yes. The KPI dashboard is part of the platform. It shows new and resolved reports, response and resolution times, and breakdowns by category or department. What the figures can tell you depends on the data recorded; missing timestamps are identified.

Is single sign-on or integration with other systems available?

Microsoft Entra ID single sign-on and a read-only API for reports and inventory are on the roadmap. They are not presented here as standard features that are already available. Requirements involving existing specialist systems should be discussed during project planning.

Can the team work without an internet connection?

The current platform requires an internet connection. Offline capture with later synchronisation is a possible extension that would need to be planned separately. It is not currently included as standard.

Privacy

The controller for data processing on this website is uxactly GmbH, named in the legal notice. Send privacy questions to info@uxact.ly.

Hosting: this website is operated on servers of Raidboxes GmbH, Hafenstrasse 32, 48153 Münster, Germany. When you visit, the hosting server stores technically necessary access data (IP address, time, page requested, browser type) in log files to secure operations and detect faults. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; the logs are deleted after a short period.

This website loads fonts, images and icons locally. It contains no analytics or advertising trackers and sets no cookies.

The interactive platform uses fictional sample data. Changes stay in this browser tab’s memory and reset when you reload.

You can download the project brief or send it to us. Downloaded, it is created in your browser and not sent anywhere. Sent, your details reach us as an email: organisation, email address, field and language and, where present, name, size (depending on the field: residents, homes, school buildings and facilities, or locations), the chosen plan, the plan the size suggests and needs, plus the time of sending and three technical labels: which button opened the form (source), which version of the page you saw (variant) and whether the form passed the timing check against automated requests. The website hands the email to WordPress’s mail function on its hosting server (Raidboxes GmbH), which delivers it to our mailbox at Microsoft 365, with Microsoft as our processor. We use your details to answer your enquiry (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR), and the source and variant also to learn which part and which version of our pages lead to enquiries (legitimate interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). We store none of it on this website and pass none of it on to third parties; nothing is stored in your browser for this either, as the version changes weekly by the calendar. To prevent misuse, the server counts enquiries per sender under a hash of the IP address made with a secret key of the website (HMAC), and separately counts all enquiries anonymously in total; both counts are kept per UTC hour and per UTC day respectively and expire at the latest one hour or one day after the last enquiry, and the address itself is never stored. After sending, the confirmation, and the notice when sending fails, also offer “Pick a time”: the link leads to Microsoft Bookings. With the click you leave this website, Microsoft’s terms and cookies apply, and we pass no details from this page along with it. If you book a time there, the details you enter there (such as your name and email address) and the time you chose reach our own Microsoft 365 calendar, with Microsoft as our processor; we use them to hold the demo (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
