Home / About eTRAX™

eTRAX™ Inspection Tracking is a revolutionary, automated fire extinguisher inspection system. Unlike other automated applications, eTRAX provides a custom solution and generates reports that are emailed directly to the user. The system is a simple three-step method:

1. A barcode on the extinguisher is scanned and the data is transmitted automatically to eTRAX
2. The information is processed and audited to certify completeness and validity
3. A customized report is emailed to the end-user

The system totally eliminates the burden of processing information and frees inspectors to focus on the inspections. And since there is no software to install or maintain, there is no reliance on IT departments or technical support. 

eTRAX™ Inspection Tracking combines wireless data transmission technology with the best in class Business Intelligence (BI) software of Cognos, an IBM company. The eTRAX system and reporting is designed and served by John Daniel Associates.

John Daniel has implemented the eTRAX fire extinguisher inspection tracking system at one of the largest steel manufacturing plants in the United States, where the system has been in use for over a year to inspect and report on the approximately 7,200 fire extinguishers.
