Racklog (Racking Defect Log)

Racklog is a user-friendly defect data logging app to enable you to collect racking defect data during your inspection. Entering the data into a device as you go along saves time and eliminates those errors that can easily occur when having to type up any handwritten notes after an inspection. As you progress through the inspection, there’s a screen tally of the defects in green, amber and red categories. After entering the location of the racking defect, the component type, position and severity buttons can be quickly logged. Any input errors can be easily rectified by editing the data at the time, even if you’ve already saved the entry. 

If you switch off your device mid inspection, or the battery runs flat, the survey will still be recorded and available as soon as you recharge, reboot and then reselect the app. The Racklog outputs to an excel spreadsheet that can be easily added to and then analysed, using charts, graphs or pivot tables; you can easily add any additional “action” columns that you need. The spreadsheet can then be added to larger documents, reports and presentations at any time or can be used to build up a picture of your racking damage over a number of years.

 This information can be used to focus on near-misses, protection and can highlight areas where additional focus needs to be applied.
