Excavator Inspection App runs structured excavator inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each excavator, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see excavator compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Excavator Inspection App runs a structured excavator inspection covering tracks, rollers, and undercarriage, hydraulic hoses, rams, and leaks, bucket, pins, and quick-hitch security, cab, ROPS, and mirrors or cameras, and brakes, controls, and lock lever, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, excavator findings live on paper and in chat. An excavator fault such as hydraulic hose or ram leaks slips through. An audit then means rebuilding excavator evidence from folders.
Excavator Inspection App keeps one record per excavator and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each excavator finding is tracked to verified closure. Plant operators and site maintenance see excavator completion and overdue actions across the mining portfolio. Every excavator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in an Excavator Inspection App?
A comprehensive excavator inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Inspect excavators with pre-start checks, hydraulic and undercarriage verifications, and defect tracking workflows. Your inspection should include sections for tracks, rollers, and undercarriage; hydraulic hoses, rams, and leaks; and bucket, pins, and quick-hitch security, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use Excavator Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps excavator inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned excavator template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, excavator, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the excavator.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, damaged ROPS or guards.
For every failed excavator item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the excavator form. The excavator report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does an Excavator Inspection Cover?
An excavator inspection covers tracks, rollers, and undercarriage, hydraulic hoses, rams, and leaks, bucket, pins, and quick-hitch security, cab, ROPS, and mirrors or cameras, brakes, controls, and lock lever, and lights, horn, and reversing alarm. Plant operators and site maintenance capture photo evidence on each excavator point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the excavator round off. So every excavator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How Excavator Inspection App Runs an Excavator Inspection
Step 1
Define and Deploy
Build the excavator template with objective pass-fail criteria and schedule it to mobile teams.
Step 2
Capture and Verify
Inspectors run the inspection with photo evidence on each finding, such as hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, damaged ROPS or guards, and failed items raise corrective actions.
Step 3
Report and Improve
Dashboards built on verified excavator data reveal recurring patterns on the excavator across every site.

What Excavator Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Excavator work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Excavator Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
You find out about an excavator problem from a complaint
There is no live view of excavator status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the excavator is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of excavator status across sites
Excavator problems surface as complaints, not as data
Excavator risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of excavator completion and open issues
Excavator risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter excavator results by site and date
Excavator checks signed off on paper with no proof the excavator was actually checked
An excavator inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the excavator was actually checked, and whether hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, damaged ROPS or guards were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the excavator passed.
Problem
Excavator checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, damaged ROPS or guards were actually inspected
Excavator findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital excavator form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every excavator check
Excavator findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
The same excavator defect comes back every cycle
Hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, damaged ROPS or guards on the excavator are fixed, then reappear weeks later. Each excavator defect is treated as fresh because nobody sees it is the third time this quarter. The excavator root cause is never addressed.
Problem
Repeat excavator defects treated as new every time
What does Excavator Inspection App check on an excavator inspection?
Excavator Inspection App runs a structured excavator inspection covering tracks, rollers, and undercarriage, hydraulic hoses, rams, and leaks, bucket, pins, and quick-hitch security, cab, ROPS, and mirrors or cameras, and brakes, controls, and lock lever. Each point is captured on mobile with photo evidence against it, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so plant operators and site maintenance work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which excavator defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the excavator failures that matter most: hydraulic hose or ram leaks, worn undercarriage and track tension, unsecured quick-hitch, and damaged ROPS or guards. Left unchecked, a fault such as hydraulic hose or ram leaks can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so plant operators and site maintenance fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Excavator Inspection App support for excavator work?
Excavator Inspection App keeps excavator checks aligned to PUWER and LOLER for lifting operations. The photos each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, plant operators and site maintenance pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run excavator checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Excavator Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete excavator checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So plant operators and site maintenance get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves an excavator inspection was completed?
Every completed excavator inspection carries quick-hitch security photo, hydraulic leak photo, and undercarriage photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, plant operators and site maintenance can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
