Container Repair Claim Defence & Disputed-Charge Evidence Software
Stop writing off contested repair line items because the matching evidence is on a phone that has since changed hands. Replace WhatsApp threads, shared folders, and after-the-fact photo hunts with a structured repair record that survives an off-hire dispute, a lessor audit, or a shipping-line claim review months — or years — after the repair was completed.
What every written-off repair charge has in common
A repair charge is only as defensible as the matched evidence set behind it. When pre-repair condition lives in a phone gallery, the work order lives in the maintenance system, and the post-repair photos live in a WhatsApp thread, the record cannot be reassembled quickly enough to defend the charge — and a leasing company, shipping line, or insurer disputes the line item by default. The cost lands not on the workshop, but on the operator's repair revenue line and on the leadership team that has to explain the write-off.
In many M&R operations, repair photos are still

A Structured Repair Documentation Workflow — From Pre-Repair to Defensible Record
ConPDS Checker replaces ad-hoc repair photos with a structured workflow built specifically for the repair lifecycle — from pre-repair baseline through work-in-progress to post-repair condition, all linked to the work order at the point of capture.
Capture the Damage Baseline Before Any Work Begins
Workshop staff photograph the damage area, the surrounding panel context, and any related pre-existing condition before lifting a tool. The pre-repair baseline is the evidence the work order is built on — without it, every subsequent photo loses defensive value when the charge is contested.
Automatic Container Number Validation and Work-Order Linkage
The app reads and validates the container number using AI-powered OCR with ISO 6346 standards (owner code, serial number, check digit), and ties every captured photo to the active work order — container-indexed and work-order-indexed from the first frame, with no manual renaming or filing step.
Document Work-in-Progress and Final Condition
Photos are added to the same container record as the repair progresses — parts removed, parts replaced, weld seams, primer, paint, finished surface. The complete chronological repair sequence lives under one container reference, retrievable as a single defensible package.
Push to Repair Systems and Counterparties Automatically
Repair packages route automatically to the operational repair system and to the responsible counterparty (lessor, shipping line, insurer) — by rule, on demand, or via secure guest portal. Every distribution event is logged in the audit trail, preserving the chain of custody from field capture to claim settlement.
What Defensible Repair Documentation Actually Requires
A photo of finished work proves nothing without the pre-repair baseline, the container link, the work-order pointer, the timestamp, and the distribution log. ConPDS Checker bakes all six into the record at capture — not after the fact.
Informal repair photos vs the structured evidence layer
When a repair charge is contested, the operator with the matched evidence layer settles fast and is paid in full. The operator without one writes the line item off, every time. The difference is built into the workflow at the moment of capture — not negotiated months later, when the matching evidence is already gone.

Stop writing off repair charges you should be defending
See how ConPDS Checker puts the evidence layer underneath your repair operation — pre-repair baseline before any tool touches the damage, work-in-progress and finished-condition photos linked to the work order, every counterparty distribution logged. The contested-charge conversation moves from opinion to evidence; the repair revenue line stops leaking.
