Daily equipment checks that build their own log
The forklift's daily check lives on a clipboard hanging off the forklift. Whether it happened, what it found, and when the brake issue first appeared — unknowable at audit time.
The short way: Operators completing the daily check on a phone against each asset, defects photographed with maintenance told within minutes, and a per-asset history that answers the auditor in one export.

How it works — three steps
- 1
Describe the check items; the AI builds the OK/defect form with an asset field.
- 2
QR on each machine opens the form; the once-per-day cadence stops duplicate logs.
- 3
Copy maintenance on the link's response alerts; the asset history is a filtered export.
What’s doing the work
Once-per-day cadence
One check per machine per day from the same device — the log can't double-count.
Defect photo evidence
Maintenance sees the leak before walking to the machine.
Response alerts
Maintenance hears within minutes that checks are in, so a brake defect is found by routine, not by luck.
Questions people ask
How does the QR-per-machine setup work?
One survey; the asset number question is the key. Print a QR per machine linking with its asset pre-noted in the poster, or let operators type the number.
Is this evidence enough for equipment audits?
Each check is a dated record with photos of any defect, and the whole history exports to Excel. What an equipment audit requires depends on your standard, so check what your auditor expects.
Minutes, not weeks. That’s the deal.
