A Forklift Digital Checklist Cheat Sheet

A digital checklist cheat sheet is the direct route to understanding how to get something done…now. It gives you the ‘how to’ in a subject matter that is critical to your needs. So we decided that we’ll do a bit of a digital checklist cheat sheet for you. This process is the same regardless if it is for a forklift, a pallet jack, sweeper, golf cart or any mobile equipment in your facility. Then if you are really ambitious, you can put together a digital checklist for your fire safety equipment, flooring, HVAC whatever else you want to track with a digital checklist. So, let’s get going on your new digital checklist cheat sheet.

What is a Digital Checklist Cheat Sheet?

A digital checklist cheat sheet is process or order in which to get tasks accomplished. For our purposes, we want to show you how to put together a digital checklist within the SIERA.AI telemetry Dashboard. Why? Because when the process is spelled out and it becomes recognized how easy it is to do, the likelihood of it occurring will be greater.

Identify Your Checklists

You probably have a paper-based checklist already put together. It’s sitting on a clipboard or in a binder. The first thing to do is to go get it. Next, click on ‘Add Checklist’. You can add as many checklists as you want within the telemetry Dashboard from a template or enter the questions and answers in yourself.

Once you are done, the list will show up below in ‘Your Checklists’. If you need to make edits, just click on the ‘edit’ button, and make any edits at any time. Once your edits are saved, it’s ready to be used and tracked.

Randomize vs Static

In the current paper-based process, the list never changes, unless you make edits to the file, print out new sheets and attach it to the folder or clipboard. That’s a lot of work especially if you have multiple worksites. What if you can randomize the questions and randomize the answers to the questions with a simple click?

Many cut corners. Some already know what question is coming next, so they may not inspect the forklift, golf cart or fire extinguishers as thoroughly as the operator should. What if the operator didn’t know what question was coming first, second, third? What if the answers were jumbled up as well. This is a great way to keep the workers and operators paying attention to what they are reading. The answers come out more honestly.

That’s it. Now its time to track the data.

Telemetry Dashboard Data

The final step in the digital checklist cheat sheet is where to find the data. You’ve created your list(s), decided if it will be randomized, and pushed all changes live. Where do I get the data?

The telemetry Dashboard is the best part of the end result. You have real data that provides insights into the operations. By knowing the results of the data, you can better manage your forklifts, pallet jacks, golf carts, sweepers or anything that needs to be monitored and tracked.

You know have a collection of data that tells you what failed. What was the most frequent part of the operation that failed? What can you do about it so doesn’t happen again. Analyze the data within the same facility, or measure their effectiveness by worksites. These insights can tell you if you need to make a change, if so, where and why.
