Driver-checks mobile app
Arden Wood Shavings, the animal beddings specialist, has renewed its fleet compliance and security systems contract with TruTac and sees improved vehicle safety ahead as TruChecks, the mobile driver inspection app, is added to the suite.
Arden has over 30 years’ experience of supplying wood shavings and sawdust bedding for a wide range of applications, including the poultry and equestrian sectors, dairy farming and for miscellaneous industrial businesses.
Transport manager Lee Parker said: “With such an extensive product range and customers throughout the country our vehicle fleet is relied upon to deliver on-time while remaining efficient, safe and 100% compliant. To this end, TruTac’s unique software systems work in unison to enable close management and control of our transport assets and personnel.”
TruChecks – a tried and tested mobile system – allows drivers to complete daily vehicle inspections quickly, accurately and without the need for manual form-filling. Available on Android, Apple and Windows operating systems, the app features a configurable check list which is easily used by the driver and automatically emailed to the office for data storage or remedial action if required.
“Thereafter, the checklists can be easily referenced for workshop maintenance and inspections at a later date. Really, it couldn’t be simpler," Lee added.
TruChecks also features enhanced graphics with easy-to-manage functions and the device captures all of the information required by VOSA inspectors.
Arden also use TruTac’s TruControl and TruTime systems. These provide automated digital tachograph analysis and fail-safe clocking of all drivers and employees.
