A time-saving app to help with fleet safety compliance
Daily fleet inspections are an essential activity for commercial fleets and considered best practice for vehicle safety.
They are also essential for compliance with industry regulations such as DVIR checks for commercial fleets, in accordance with the FMCSA.
In addition, regular fleet inspections help you spot defects that could be dangerous and expensive, before an accident occurs. Ultimately, carrying out regular fleet checks saves you time and money, by enabling a fast response to any issues that arise.
Digital capture of vehicle safety inspections
Our app, Quartix Check, makes it easy for drivers to do vehicle checks. They can use either a default or custom vehicle checklist.
With a Quartix Check subscription, your drivers can download the app for free from the Apple and Google Play stores. It includes default templates, such as a daily van, car, or truck inspections. There is also a vehicle defect recording option, with photo upload capabilities. Your driver can record all the information needed with just a few clicks and swipes on their device.
