Crane / Derrick Audit App

Crane / Derrick Audit App turns crane / derrick audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each crane / derrick against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare crane / derrick audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.

What is Crane / Derrick Audit App?

Crane / Derrick Audit App runs a scored derrick audit covering main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, and ladders, platforms, and fall arrest, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, derrick findings live on paper and in chat. A derrick fault such as corrosion or cracked members slips through. An audit then means rebuilding derrick evidence from folders.

Crane / Derrick Audit App keeps one record per derrick and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each derrick finding is tracked to verified closure. Rig and structural inspection teams see derrick completion and overdue actions across the transport, logistics & warehousing portfolio. Every derrick record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

What to Include in a Crane / Derrick Audit App?

A comprehensive derrick audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit crane and derrick operations with structured scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking. Your audit should include sections for main members, welds, and corrosion; bolt torque and pin condition; and crown block and sheaves, 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 Crane / Derrick Audit App

A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a crane / derrick audit:

  1. Open the crane / derrick audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
  2. Score each crane / derrick against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
  3. Let the app calculate the section and overall crane / derrick score so the site is comparable to others.
  4. Raise a corrective action for each failed crane / derrick criterion with an owner and due date.
  5. Sign off the crane / derrick audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.

What Does a Derrick Audit Cover?

A derrick audit scores condition against API derrick and mast standards and work at height regulations, checking main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, ladders, platforms, and fall arrest, and dropped-object surveys. Each derrick finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the derrick audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

What Gets Checked

  • Main members, welds, and corrosion
  • Bolt torque and pin condition
  • Crown block and sheaves
  • Racking board and fingerboards
  • Ladders, platforms, and fall arrest
  • Dropped-object surveys

Common Defects It Surfaces

  • Corrosion or cracked members
  • Loose or missing bolts
  • Worn crown sheaves
  • Fall-arrest or platform defects

What Crane / Derrick Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere

Crane / Derrick work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Crane / Derrick Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.

Crane / Derrick Audit App: Lift OEM and service partner signs off the crane / derrick fix, and nobody checks it

Lift OEM and service partner signs off the crane / derrick fix, and nobody checks it

A defect on the crane / derrick is handed to lift OEM and service partner. A week later the crane / derrick defect is marked closed. Whether the crane / derrick work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.

Problem

  • Lift OEM and service partner marks work closed with no verification
  • Poor crane / derrick fixes are only found at the next inspection
  • No record of which crane / derrick partners actually perform

Solution

  • Closure photo required before any crane / derrick action is signed off
  • Lift OEM and service partner performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
  • Re-opened crane / derrick actions linked back to the original finding
Crane / Derrick Audit App: The crane / derrick report is still being assembled by hand

The crane / derrick report is still being assembled by hand

Someone spends Friday afternoon collecting crane / derrick photos, notes, and audit records into a report. By the time leadership reads it, the crane / derrick data is days old and the next problem is already live.

Problem

  • Crane / Derrick reports compiled by hand from photos and notes
  • Leadership reads crane / derrick data that is already days old
  • Every crane / derrick report looks slightly different

Solution

  • Branded crane / derrick reports generate automatically per site and period
  • Scheduled crane / derrick reports reach managers before the morning meeting
  • One consistent crane / derrick report format across the estate
Crane / Derrick Audit App: Every auditor scores the crane / derrick audit differently, so sites cannot be compared

Every auditor scores the crane / derrick audit differently, so sites cannot be compared

One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The crane / derrick audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.

Problem

  • Crane / Derrick scoring depends on which auditor showed up
  • Crane / derrick sections get skipped with no record
  • Crane / Derrick scores are not comparable across sites

Solution

  • Weighted crane / derrick criteria baked into the audit template
  • Mandatory crane / derrick sections, so nothing is skipped
  • Comparable crane / derrick scores that roll up across the estate

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Crane / Derrick Audit App check on a derrick audit?

Crane / Derrick Audit App runs a scored derrick audit against API derrick and mast standards and work at height regulations, checking main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, and ladders, platforms, and fall arrest. 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 rig and structural inspection teams 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 derrick defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?

The audit targets the derrick failures that matter most: corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, and fall-arrest or platform defects. Left unchecked, a fault such as corrosion or cracked members 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 rig and structural inspection teams 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 Crane / Derrick Audit App support for derrick work?

Crane / Derrick Audit App keeps derrick checks aligned to API derrick and mast standards and work at height regulations. 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, rig and structural inspection teams 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 derrick checks offline and across multiple sites?

Yes. Crane / Derrick Audit App is offline-first: teams complete derrick 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 rig and structural inspection teams 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 derrick audit was completed?

Every completed derrick audit carries member and weld photo, bolt torque log, and crown block photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, rig and structural inspection teams 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.
