Grader Audit App turns grader audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each grader against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare grader audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Grader Audit App runs a scored grader audit covering tyres, pressure, and rim condition, moldboard, circle, and cutting edge, hydraulic hoses and rams, articulation and steering, and brakes, ROPS, and seat belt, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, grader findings live on paper and in chat. A grader fault such as worn cutting edge and circle slips through. An audit then means rebuilding grader evidence from folders.
Grader Audit App keeps one record per grader and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each grader finding is tracked to verified closure. Earthworks and haul-road crews see grader completion and overdue actions across the mining portfolio. Every grader record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Grader Audit App?
A comprehensive grader audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit grader operations with weighted scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking. Your audit should include sections for tyres, pressure, and rim condition; moldboard, circle, and cutting edge; and hydraulic hoses and rams, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Grader Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a grader audit:
Open the grader audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each grader against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall grader score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed grader criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the grader audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does a Grader Audit Cover?
A grader audit scores condition against PUWER and manufacturer pre-start schedule, checking tyres, pressure, and rim condition, moldboard, circle, and cutting edge, hydraulic hoses and rams, articulation and steering, brakes, ROPS, and seat belt, and lights, horn, and reversing alarm. Each grader finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the grader audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

How Grader Audit App Scores a Grader Audit
Step 1
Score Consistently
Weighted criteria are built into the grader audit template.
Step 2
Evidence Every Finding
Auditors attach photo proof for each grader non-conformance.
Step 3
Compare and Act
Scorecards rank sites and failed grader criteria become corrective actions.

What Grader Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Grader work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Grader Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Grader data is scattered across spreadsheets, photos, and chat
Some grader records sit in Excel, some in a WhatsApp group, some in a folder of photos. There is no single source of truth for the grader, so every grader question takes an hour and three people to answer.
Problem
Grader records split across Excel, chat, and photo folders
No single trusted version of the grader record
Answering a simple grader question takes hours
Solution
One system of record for every grader check and finding
Every grader photo and action tied to its record
Search any site or grader and get an answer instantly
Every auditor scores the grader audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The grader audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Grader scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Grader sections get skipped with no record
Grader scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted grader criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory grader sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable grader scores that roll up across the estate
Grader issues get logged, then quietly forgotten
A failed item is noted during a routine audit. Nobody owns it, no date is set, and the next audit finds the same problem on the same grader. The grader issue is logged, not closed.
Problem
Failed grader items noted but never assigned to anyone
No due date on a grader fix, so nothing is ever overdue
The grader fix is marked done with no proof it happened
Solution
Every failed grader item becomes an owned corrective action
Closure needs a grader verification photo before sign-off
Overdue actions escalate automatically
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Grader Audit App check on a grader audit?
Grader Audit App runs a scored grader audit against PUWER and manufacturer pre-start schedule, checking tyres, pressure, and rim condition, moldboard, circle, and cutting edge, hydraulic hoses and rams, articulation and steering, and brakes, ROPS, and seat belt. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for earthworks and haul-road crews rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which grader defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the grader failures that matter most: worn cutting edge and circle, hydraulic leaks, articulation or steering play, and brake performance loss. Left unchecked, a fault such as worn cutting edge and circle 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 earthworks and haul-road crews 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 Grader Audit App support for grader work?
Grader Audit App keeps grader checks aligned to PUWER and manufacturer pre-start schedule. The photos and readings 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, earthworks and haul-road crews 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 grader checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Grader Audit App is offline-first: teams complete grader 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 earthworks and haul-road crews 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 a grader audit was completed?
Every completed grader audit carries moldboard and edge photo, hydraulic leak photo, and tyre photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, earthworks and haul-road crews 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.
