New York City Buildings Commissioner Robert LiMandri has announced a new program that will use global-positioning system technology to track the locations of the Department of Buildings 379 inspectors throughout New York City. The new tracking system will be installed in the inspector’s DOB-issued cell phones in order to better increase the integrity, efficiency and safety of all inspections.
“This new GPS-tracking system is a simple, innovative way to ensure inspectors reach their assigned locations and are held accountable for their important work,” said Commissioner LiMandri in a statement.
