Quest was the first external company to be licensed by RICS to electronically reproduce the HBRs so RICS Chartered Surveyors could complete reports via their PC. Quest’s case management system enables surveyors to receive HBR instructions directly to their inbox, send progress updates and return completed reports to their clients.

To simplify the report completion process, the system also enables surveyors to use their own bespoke phrases in addition to industry-standard phrase templates, including the RICS-prescribed or Stephen Mika’s (Survey Text) HBR Phrases, to speed up the report generation process.

Once typed, the completed reports are viewable as PDF files which can include the survey firms company branding. The PDF of the draft HBR can then be emailed to clients with a draft watermark. Once the client is happy with the content the HBR can be electronically signed by a RICS Chartered Surveyor holding a HBR licence and a final non-watermarked version will be available to email to your client.
