Runway Inspection App runs structured runway inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each runway, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see runway compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Runway Inspection App runs a structured runway inspection covering pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, approach and runway edge lighting, surface friction and standing water, and foreign object debris, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, runway findings live on paper and in chat. A runway fault such as rubber build-up reducing friction slips through. An audit then means rebuilding runway evidence from folders.
Runway Inspection App keeps one record per runway and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each runway finding is tracked to verified closure. Airside operations teams see runway completion and overdue actions across the transport, logistics & warehousing portfolio. Every runway record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Runway Inspection App?
A comprehensive runway inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Inspect runways with structured pavement, lighting, and FOD checks plus defect logging and photo evidence. Your inspection should include sections for pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, and approach and runway edge lighting, 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 Runway Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps runway inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned runway template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, runway, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the runway.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially rubber build-up reducing friction, foreign object debris, faded threshold markings, unserviceable approach lighting.
For every failed runway item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the runway form. The runway report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does a Runway Inspection Cover?
A runway inspection covers pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, approach and runway edge lighting, surface friction and standing water, and foreign object debris. Airside operations teams capture a photo and a reading on each runway point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the runway round off. So every runway record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How Runway Inspection App Runs a Runway Inspection
Step 1
Define and Deploy
Build the runway 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 rubber build-up reducing friction, foreign object debris, faded threshold markings, unserviceable approach lighting, and failed items raise corrective actions.
Step 3
Report and Improve
Dashboards built on verified runway data reveal recurring patterns on the runway across every site.

What Runway Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Runway work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Runway Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
You find out about a runway problem from a complaint
There is no live view of runway status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the runway is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of runway status across sites
Runway problems surface as complaints, not as data
Runway risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of runway completion and open issues
Runway risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter runway results by site and date
Runway checks signed off on paper with no proof the runway was actually checked
A runway inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the runway was actually checked, and whether rubber build-up reducing friction, foreign object debris, faded threshold markings, unserviceable approach lighting were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the runway passed.
Problem
Runway checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm rubber build-up reducing friction, foreign object debris, faded threshold markings, unserviceable approach lighting were actually inspected
Runway findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital runway form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every runway check
Runway findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
Assigned contractor signs off the runway fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the runway is handed to assigned contractor. A week later the runway defect is marked closed. Whether the runway work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Assigned contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor runway fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which runway partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any runway action is signed off
Assigned contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened runway actions linked back to the original finding
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Runway Inspection App check on a runway inspection?
Runway Inspection App runs a structured runway inspection covering pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, approach and runway edge lighting, surface friction and standing water, and foreign object debris. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so airside operations teams 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 runway defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the runway failures that matter most: rubber build-up reducing friction, foreign object debris, faded threshold markings, and unserviceable approach lighting. Left unchecked, a fault such as rubber build-up reducing friction 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 airside operations 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 Runway Inspection App support for runway work?
Runway Inspection App keeps runway checks aligned to ICAO Annex 14 and FAA Part 139. 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, airside operations 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 runway checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Runway Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete runway 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 airside operations 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 runway inspection was completed?
Every completed runway inspection carries friction test record, FOD find log, and lighting and marking photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, airside operations 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.
