Digital Crane Inspection Report Software
Cranes and other lifting equipment carry some of the highest safety stakes on any site. FleetFabric© digitises pre-use, periodic, and post-maintenance crane inspections into one auditable workflow.
Lifting Equipment Deserves a Rigorous Digital Record
A crane inspection report documents structural, mechanical, and control-system condition before a lift takes place. Because the consequences of an undetected fault are severe, the inspection record needs to be complete, signed, and instantly retrievable — not a carbon-copy form in a site office drawer.
FleetFabric© links every crane inspection to the asset's full maintenance history, so a recurring fault pattern is visible to your maintenance planner, not just buried in a single day's report.
What's Included
- Configurable checklist per crane type (mobile, tower, overhead)
- Load chart and rigging accessory checks
- Photo evidence attached to any defect
- Automatic work order and asset hold on critical defects
- Digital sign-off by operator and appointed inspector
- Full report archive, exportable as PDF
Why Digitise Crane & Lifting Equipment Inspections
High-Consequence Safety
Structural and rigging faults on lifting equipment carry severe consequences — a documented, rigorous check before every lift matters.
LMI-Aligned Records
Reports can be structured to align with the documentation typically expected under Lifting Machinery Inspector requirements.
Faster Fault Resolution
A flagged structural or hydraulic concern reaches the maintenance team immediately, not after the shift ends.
Full Asset History
Every inspection, defect, and repair is tied to the crane's permanent record — visible at a glance to auditors and maintenance planners.

Crane Inspection Report — FAQ
Can this replace our LMI's formal inspection certificate?
No — a statutory LMI inspection remains a separate, certified process. FleetFabric©'s digital report captures operational pre-use and periodic checks and stores your LMI certificates alongside them for easy reference.
Can rigging accessories be tracked separately from the crane itself?
Yes, slings, shackles, and other rigging accessories can be registered as their own assets with their own inspection schedules.
Does a critical defect stop the crane being used?
Yes, critical structural or mechanical defect categories can be configured to place an automatic hold on the crane.
