How PublicanOps works

From paper checklist to a live workflow.

Schedule it, assign it, complete it on mobile, and report on what happened. Records can carry into shift reports, manager handovers and asset history where relevant.

  1. 1Step 1

    Schedule

    Scheduled by time and shift

    PublicanOps schedules gaming room checks by time, shift or service period — on the cadence the venue and regulator require.

  2. 2Step 2

    Assign

    Mobile floor walks

    Staff complete the walk on a phone or tablet, recording machine faults, cleaning issues and RG observations as they go.

  3. 3Step 3

    Complete

    Faults linked to machines

    Machine issues flow straight into the Gaming Machine Fault Log linked to that specific EGM.

  4. 4Step 4

    Report

    Incidents and follow-ups

    Incidents, RG observations and follow-up notes are captured against the check and surfaced to the Duty Manager.

Completed records flow straight into venue reports, manager handovers and — for maintenance and asset checks — your asset history, so nothing has to be re-keyed.
