Construction Plant Inspection Checklist

Multi-site construction operations need consistent plant inspections wherever equipment is deployed. FleetFabric© standardises the checklist while giving each site real-time visibility of equipment condition.

Overview

Consistent Checks Across Every Site and Subcontractor


Construction plant moves between sites constantly, often operated by different crews or subcontractors. A digital checklist ensures the same standard of pre-use inspection happens regardless of who's on the machine or which site it's currently deployed to.

Flagged defects generate a work order immediately, and a site supervisor can see at a glance which plant on their site is cleared for use and which is on hold.

What's Included

  • Standardised checklists across sites and subcontractors
  • Configurable per plant type — excavator, dumper, roller, mixer
  • Site-transfer tracking for mobile plant
  • Automatic work order and plant hold on critical faults
  • Subcontractor equipment inspection records
  • Site-level compliance dashboard
