Multi-award-winning CheckedSafe is unique in the fact that its software was developed to provide simple and inexpensive compliance solutions that can be tailored to any industry. Combining a dedicated team of developers and client account managers, CheckedSafe provides comprehensive compliance services across several platforms, including commercial and plant hire vehicles, complete fleets, and vehicles in the utilities sector.
CheckedSafe is a trusted partner of several well-known brands, including Enterprise, HITACHI, QBE, and Northgate. The company was founded by Gary Hawthorne and Darran Harris, both of whom bring extensive expertise to the industry. Darran specialises in litigation, compliance, and road traffic incidents, while Gary holds multiple prestigious credentials, including Fellow status with the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, the Society of Engineers, and the Institute of Road Traffic Engineers. He is also a Commercial Mediator and a DVSA Accredited Earned Recognition Auditor.
Its primary offering is a paperless compliance system that facilitates efficient defect reporting and fleet maintenance. This innovative software is also compliant with the DVSA Earned Recognition scheme, enabling you to prove with ease that your vehicles, drivers, and operations meet all necessary standards, thus reducing the likelihood of your vehicles being stopped for roadside inspections.
From the office, managers can monitor user activity, view comprehensive maintenance reports in real time, identify outstanding tasks and vehicle defects, and schedule services to remain fully compliant. Comprehensive reports include all details relating to checks and their outcomes, including historical checks, and the system is completely secure as all data is sealed from editing, providing an end-to-end detailed audit trail. What’s more, with the innovative scheduling system, you have full visibility over the status of your vehicles, enabling servicing and maintenance to be scheduled accordingly, allowing you to digitalise your wall planners.
This software is suitable for checks on HGV walkarounds, daily van checks, vehicle pre use, FORS, plant & equipment, and forklifts, and can be tailored to create a template for ANY piece of equipment you might have.
For the drivers, a brand-new app – GB Domestic Hours, is a completely digitised upgrade to the paper log books, allowing drivers to record and manage their drivers’ hours directly from their smartphone.
CheckedSafe is the only UK company to develop and launch the GB Domestic Hours app, bringing market-first technology to UK vehicle fleets. CheckedSafe’s portfolio of compliance tools – that includes the much-celebrated Driver Licencing Checks, priced at an unbelievable £1.60 per check and Fleet Management Software – enables fleet managers to efficiently oversee fleets of any size fully digitally – eliminating the need for cumbersome paperwork.
In addition to vehicle compliance, CheckedSafe provides a Lone Worker App designed to enhance the safety of employees working alone. This app allows lone workers to log their location and complete risk assessments, ensuring employers can monitor their safety effectively.
Ideal for those who work outside of normal working hours, are remote from a central office, or even for those who are not in frequent contact with their employer, the CheckedSafe Lone Worker App and monitoring suite is the number one App for employers to ensure the safety of their employees.
Offering a completely customisable experience, the system boasts an extensive library of DVSA, HSE, Puwer, Loler, and UK Border Force check templates, all of which can be tailored to suit the specific requirements of your business. What’s more, if a driver has no signal, defects can be conducted from anywhere at any time. This is because all failed vehicle compliance checks will automatically generate a report which is stored in CheckedSafe’s secure CMS, ready for further analysis.
Gary Hawthorne, Director & Co-Founder mentioned, “Fleet managers can now oversee any size fleet with mobile phones, rather than copious amounts of paperwork (a laptop is useful to interrogate the data). There is no need to store huge boxes of reports, plus it’s all in real-time so any defects/issues can be resolved quickly, reducing overall long-term costs and reducing downtime as better repair planning can be achieved.”
All of this can be achieved for just £1 per vehicle per week. Just think, how much more efficient your business could be if your employees could carry out customised vehicle checklists via a downloadable app – even when drivers are off-grid!
