Fleet asset management dashboard showing vehicles, status and inspection history

FMCSA requires it. But paper makes it painful.

Every commercial driver needs to complete a written report at the end of each day. That rule isn't going away. But "written" doesn't have to mean paper anymore.

The paper problem

  • ✗ DVIRs sitting in gloveboxes for weeks
  • ✗ Illegible handwriting, missing signatures
  • ✗ No proof when (or if) inspection happened
  • ✗ Scrambling to find records before audits
  • ✗ Defects that don't get reported to maintenance

With ChecksAndTicks

  • ✓ DVIRs submitted instantly from any phone
  • ✓ Digital forms - consistent every time
  • ✓ Timestamp, GPS, and photo evidence
  • ✓ All records searchable, always ready
  • ✓ Defects trigger work orders automatically
