Forklift Inspection Checklist

Capture Forklift Inspection Checklists with Digital Monitoring & Reporting

Tracking Safety is Essential

Fleet managers and operations managers already know that by conducting a forklift daily inspection checklist it can increase safety and reduce injuries in the warehouse, distribution center and manufacturing facility. No doubt there is a high level of importance placed on lift truck safety and operator safety.

But you want more… you expect more from your forklift inspection.

Too Much Paper?

To meet OSHA forklift inspection requirements, checklists are often filled out with a piece of paper attached to a clipboard, the critical information captured is oftentimes placed into a bin which (hopefully) ends up in a binder. However, the binder can’t automatically conduct analysis to tell you when a part needs to be replaced or when a driver is ready for additional certification, safety or forklift operator training.

That’s why SIERA Scout’s digital forklift inspection checklist does what you need.

Forklift Daily Inspection Checklist

Scout is a software tool that captures what you need to track, monitor and report.

Let’s say your fleet of trucks is a mix of electric, gas and diesel forklifts. Each lift truck has a different set of checks. Now you can ask the right questions, monitor the life of the truck and report on its passes or failures in one central location – the SIERA Dashboard.

The Operator Experience

The operator wants to get started with a daily equipment inspection checklist. They know forklift inspection is vital to their performance, so if it can be done fast and easy, they’ll do it.

The operator starts in 1 of 2 easy ways:

Use your phone or tablet to scan the truck’s QR code then enter the operator PIN or scan a badge.

Next the operator answers questions with an easy to answer format. Type in additional comments and/or add pictures to clearly identify the issue visually.

If a lift truck fails the inspection, an email is automatically sent to 1, 2, or as many people as you need notifying of the failure.

That’s it!

The Fleet or Operations Manager Experience

Knowing the health of your fleet is critical to the effectiveness of your operation. It allows you to maximize your fleet ensuring additional expenses such as temporary workers or rental equipment are kept to a minimum…if needed at all.

Monitor Results with a Single Dashboard

The SIERA.AI Dashboard provides real-time metrics that allow the warehouse, plant or distribution center manager to track results by fleet or drill down to the individual truck. Now you can analyze and make critical decisions on a lift truck by hour, day, week, month year or any defined period of time.

Scout has given us the control we need to ensure our lift trucks are OSHA compliant and running efficiently. The simple scan – answer format makes it fast and easy for the workers to use and report issues with pictures to pinpoint problem areas.
