Switch and Turnout Compliance App gives switch and turnout compliance a defensible audit trail. Every check is timestamped, photo-backed, and aligned to track and signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards, so an auditor sees proof in seconds instead of days. Managers see live switch and turnout compliance status and upcoming statutory due dates across every site.
Switch and Turnout Compliance App evidences switch and turnout compliance check covering switch blades and stock rail fit, stretcher bars and detection, point machine and drive, facing point lock and locking, and crossing nose and check rails, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, switch and turnout findings live on paper and in chat. A switch and turnout fault such as blades not fitting the stock rail slips through. An audit then means rebuilding switch and turnout evidence from folders.
Switch and Turnout Compliance App keeps one record per switch and turnout and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each switch and turnout finding is tracked to verified closure. Signalling and track maintenance teams see switch and turnout completion and overdue actions across the transport, logistics & warehousing portfolio. Every switch and turnout record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Switch and Turnout Compliance App?
A comprehensive switch and turnout inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Track switch and turnout compliance with statutory geometry and condition checks, evidence capture, and audit-ready records. Your inspection should include sections for switch blades and stock rail fit, stretcher bars and detection, and point machine and drive, 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 Switch and Turnout Compliance App
Compliance evidence is only useful if it is complete and retrievable. Follow these steps for each compliance check:
Open the switch and turnout compliance template, mapped to track and signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards.
Check each requirement against the asset and capture photo evidence as proof.
Record the date, location, and inspector identity on every submission.
Raise a corrective action for any gap and track it to verified closure.
Sign off. The record is stored and exportable as an audit-ready PDF.
What Does a Switch and Turnout Compliance Check Cover?
Switch and turnout compliance evidences the required checks on switch blades and stock rail fit, stretcher bars and detection, point machine and drive, facing point lock and locking, crossing nose and check rails, and greasing, fastenings, and gauge. The photos and readings each switch and turnout rule expects are mandatory fields. Switch and turnout renewals are flagged before they lapse. So switch and turnout compliance stays a documented fact, not an assurance.

What Switch and Turnout Teams Fix When Compliance Evidence Lives in One Place
Switch and Turnout work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Switch and Turnout Compliance App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
You find out about a switch and turnout problem from a complaint
There is no live view of switch and turnout status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the asset is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of switch and turnout status across sites
Switch and Turnout problems surface as complaints, not as data
Switch and Turnout risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of switch and turnout completion and open issues
Switch and Turnout risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter switch and turnout results by site and date
When an auditor asks for switch and turnout records, the team scrambles
An auditor visits and asks for proof of the last six switch and turnout checks. The records are spread across phones, drives, and a filing cabinet. Compliance is a feeling, not a fact.
Problem
Switch and Turnout evidence scattered across phones and drives
No quick way to prove a switch and turnout check was done
Switch and Turnout statutory due dates discovered after they pass
Solution
One structured record per check, mapped to track and signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards
Audit-ready switch and turnout PDF export in seconds, not days
Switch and turnout due dates and overdue checks flagged in advance
Switch and Turnout issues get logged, then quietly forgotten
A failed item is noted during a routine compliance check. Nobody owns it, no date is set, and the next compliance check finds the same problem on the same asset. The switch and turnout issue is logged, not closed.
Problem
Failed switch and turnout items noted but never assigned to anyone
No due date on an asset fix, so nothing is ever overdue
The asset fix is marked done with no proof it happened
Solution
Every failed switch and turnout item becomes an owned corrective action
Closure needs an asset verification photo before sign-off
Overdue actions escalate automatically
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Switch and Turnout Compliance App cover in a switch and turnout compliance check?
Switch and Turnout Compliance App keeps switch and turnout compliance current by evidencing switch blades and stock rail fit, stretcher bars and detection, point machine and drive, facing point lock and locking, and crossing nose and check rails. The photos and readings each rule expects are mandatory fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. Renewals and statutory due dates are flagged before they lapse. If a check fails, the template opens its follow-up questions and requires photo evidence, so every gap is documented on the spot rather than reconstructed later from memory.
Which switch and turnout defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The compliance check targets the switch and turnout failures that matter most: blades not fitting the stock rail, detection or stretcher-bar faults, point machine drive faults, and worn crossing nose. Left unchecked, a fault such as blades not fitting the stock rail 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 signalling and track maintenance 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 Switch and Turnout Compliance App support for switch and turnout work?
Switch and Turnout Compliance App keeps switch and turnout checks aligned to track and signalling standards and RSSB rail industry standards. 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, signalling and track maintenance 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 switch and turnout checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Switch and Turnout Compliance App is offline-first: teams complete switch and turnout 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 signalling and track maintenance 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 switch and turnout compliance check was completed?
Every completed switch and turnout compliance check carries switch blade fit photo, point machine photo, and crossing nose photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, signalling and track maintenance 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.
