O’Donovan Waste Disposal is equipping its drivers with the CheckedSafe app for carrying out daily walkaround checks across its fleet of 90 HGVs.
Inspections are done at the click of a button, with all information logged and accessible in real-time, giving the transport team insights into the information gathered.
The app records the GPS co-ordinates and duration of the check taking place, ensuring that adequate time is taken by the driver to complete it.
Drivers can add detailed notes and take pictures regarding any defects noted and the actions they took to correct them.
