The problem this software solves
Rubber build-up reducing friction
Reported by voice or chat, rubber build-up reducing friction is caught late and logged with no evidence tied to the asset.
Foreign object debris
Foreign object debris goes unrecorded between rounds, so there is no proof it was found, owned, or fixed.
Faded threshold markings
On a manual round faded threshold markings is easy to miss, and hard to defend to an auditor after the fact.
Unserviceable approach lighting
Unserviceable approach lighting lands in a photo thread with no owner, deadline, or audit trail behind it.
How the software solves it
InspectWrk runs the runway audit as a scored assessment that produces a defensible pack: plan, score against the rubric, evidence every finding, and drive corrective action to closure.

Workflow
How Does a Runway Audit Run from a Field Finding to a Scoped, Traceable Evidence Pack?
The audit workflow, end to end: Plan → Assess & score → Capture evidence → Record findings → Corrective action → Verify closure → Report. Every step happens on one system, so nothing falls between the field and the office.
- 1
Configure the Runway Audit Template
Across multi-site runway audit rounds, your runway controls become a mobile template with required photos and readings on pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, approach and runway edge lighting, surface friction and standing water, and foreign object debris, aligned to ICAO Annex 14 and FAA Part 139, so every site inspects to the same standard from day one.
- 2
Capture the Runway Check in the Field
Where runway audit evidence has to hold up, inspectors complete the runway audit on iOS or Android, offline where signal is poor, recording friction test record, FOD find log, and lighting and marking photo against each point before a named sign-off can close the round.
- 3
Route Runway Findings to Verified Closure
On every runway audit cycle, A failed item such as rubber build-up reducing friction becomes an owned task with a severity and a deadline, and stays open until photo proof of the fix is reviewed, so runway defects do not resurface unnoticed.
- 4
Report Runway Performance
Every runway audit feeds live dashboards and branded exports, so airside operations teams see completion, overdue actions, and risk per site without assembling a report by hand.
Capabilities
What the software handles for runway audit
The capabilities that matter for this workflow, and what your team can do with each one.
Timestamped Finding Capture
Each finding carries an automatic timestamp and named auditor. Why it matters: a finding with a questionable date is a finding an auditor can challenge, so accurate timing is the foundation of a defensible audit.
Photo Evidence Per Finding
Every finding holds its own photo against the runway section. Why it matters: a photo detached from its finding proves nothing, while a linked photo is the evidence an auditor accepts.
Corrective Action Tracking
Each finding gets an owner, action, and deadline followed to closure. Why it matters: an open finding with no owner is exactly what an audit re-flags at the next visit.
Verified Closure
Findings close on evidence, not on a claim that the work was done. Why it matters: a finding closed without proof reopens under scrutiny and damages audit confidence.
Per-section Audit History
Audit findings attach to each runway section over time. Why it matters: a repeat finding on the same section signals a systemic issue rather than a one-off.
Scoped Evidence Pack Export
A branded evidence pack exports per runway and audit window. Why it matters: an auditor request becomes a minutes-long export instead of a multi-day binder assembly.

Comparison
Paper and spreadsheets vs InspectWrk
Where paper and spreadsheets fall short against InspectWrk on the runway audit job.
| Capability | Paper / spreadsheets | With InspectWrk |
|---|---|---|
| Periodic scoring | Runway audits, covering points like pavement cracking and rubber deposits, are scored on paper, so results are hard to compare across periods or sites. | Each audit is scored against a fixed rubric, so trend and site comparison are genuinely comparable. |
| Evidence per finding | A finding such as rubber build-up reducing friction is noted without a photo tied to the asset and time. | Every finding carries a photo, inspector identity, timestamp, and location. |
| Non-conformance to CAPA | Corrective actions live in email with no owner, deadline, or proof the fix happened. | Each non-conformance becomes a tracked action with severity, owner, and verified closure. |
| Audit trail | Historic audit records are scattered and slow to retrieve when a reviewer asks. | Twelve months of scored audits retrieve in one click with the full evidence trail. |
| Audit pack | The pack is assembled by hand the week of the review. | A branded, scored pack aligned to ICAO Annex 14 exports the moment the audit closes. |
Rollout
How Should an Airport Pilot Digital Runway Audits Before Rolling Them Out to Every Pavement?
Pilot on One Runway
Start with a single runway so the audit scope, finding categories, and evidence-pack format are validated against a real certification audit before rollout to taxiways, aprons, and a second runway.
Access and Roles
Auditors get finding capture and sign-off, action owners get their assigned corrective actions, and the certification team gets read access to the full evidence trail per runway through role-based access.
Before You Switch
What Auditors and QHSE Teams Ask
Can it produce a scored, defensible runway audit pack?
Yes. Each audit scores against the rubric, every finding carries photo evidence and a timestamp, and a branded pack exports in one click with the full trail a reviewer expects.
How are non-conformances tracked to closure?
Each becomes a corrective action with a severity, an owner, and a deadline, and stays open until a named approver verifies the fix with proof.
Can we compare audit results over time and across sites?
Because each audit scores against the same rubric with enforced definitions, trend and cross-site comparison are genuinely comparable rather than subjective.

Frequently Asked Questions About Runway Audit Software
What does Runway Audit Software check on a runway audit?
Runway Audit Software runs a scored runway audit against ICAO Annex 14 and FAA Part 139, checking pavement cracking and rubber deposits, runway and threshold markings, approach and runway edge lighting, surface friction and standing water, and foreign object debris. 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 airside operations 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.
How often should a runway audit be done?
How often runway checks run depends on duty, risk, and the standard you follow. Some are daily or pre-use; others run weekly, monthly, or at a statutory interval. Runway Audit Software sets the cadence per site, reminds airside operations teams before a round is due, and flags anything overdue automatically. Each completed round is timestamped and signed, so the schedule is provably kept rather than assumed, and you can show exactly when the last check happened for any asset. Runway Audit Software lets aviation teams run runway audits the same way on every visit, with photos and a sign-off on each runway.
Which runway defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit 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 Audit Software support for runway work?
Runway Audit Software 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 export a branded evidence pack built from friction test record, FOD find log, and lighting and marking photo, ready to hand over on the spot. 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 Audit Software is offline-first: teams complete runway checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing friction test record, FOD find log, and lighting and marking photo 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 plant room or basement never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a runway audit was completed?
Every completed runway audit 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.
