CodePal Inspection Software. Created by Sybatech, inc. and designed specifically to meet the needs and requirements of multiple inspection industries.

In September, 2003 Sybatech, Inc. became engaged in researching a solution for performing fire safety inspections in the field. The solution would need to provide clients a method for collecting data in the field, consistency in use for all inspectors, and automated processes for data maintenance and reporting.

By January 2004, Sybatech, Inc. had a pilot system developed and we named it CodePal. This system was written using MS Access, and utilized personal digital assistants (PDA's) to collect data and synchronize to a PC application. CodePal was installed in 3 different locations with good results. However, although the software was functional, CodePal was not the enterprise level product Sybatech, Inc. wanted to provide.

In October 2004, Sybatech, Inc. rolled out a version of CodePal that was developed using what were then the most current development tools. We believe the results have given us the best inspection software in the marketplace today.

By April 2007 CodePal was being used in many fire departments throughout the continental United States. With the feedback from these customers Sybatech, Inc. was able to introduce CodePal version 5 that implemented the wants and needs of departments across the country.

During 2007 Sybatech, Inc. began introducing CodePal to other organizations that perform inspections and through feedback and hands-on setup and implementation began developing CodePal version 6 (released January 2008) into a product that fit the needs of any inspection industry.

CodePal is now being used by Building Departments, Sprinkler & Alarm Companies, Plan Review Departments, Airports, Property Maintenance, Security Agencies, the United States Air Force, and other governmental agencies.

CodePal has scheduled the release of version 8.5.0 in the first quarter of 2013.
