  1. Inspection reports

Inspection workflow

How an inspection report is initiated A to Z

  1. Sellers list their machine: The inspection process begins when a seller lists a machine on our platform. Once the listing is created, our certified inspection team schedules a visit to evaluate the equipment on-site.

  2. Inspection and reporting: Our team conducts a comprehensive inspection, using three types of inspection methods: visual, manual, and automated. These inspections cover all major components. The findings from each inspection are compiled into a detailed report.

  3. Rating system: After the inspection, each component of the machine is graded on a 1 to 5-star scale based on its condition:

    1. Needs attention: Major wear or damage; requires immediate repair.

    2. Fair: Functional but worn; maintenance needed soon.

    3. Good: Operating as expected with minor wear.

    4. Very Good: Minimal cosmetic wear; functioning properly.

    5. Excellent: In like-new condition.

  4. Report upload: The completed inspection report is uploaded to makana.com and made available for prospective buyers to review alongside the equipment listing.
