The ENCOMPASS® DVIR application offers a standalone solution for managing vehicle maintenance and upkeep, including options to customize vehicle inspection criteria according to a fleet’s specific vehicle types. The app also offers an intuitive model for setting up and reviewing pre- and post-trip inspection records, as well as a time-tracking functionality for non-regulated drivers and personnel to record on and off duty time. Drivers can easily submit inspection and time records to the back office, increasing management awareness of completed inspections and any necessary unit maintenance. The app requires no additional hardware and is ideal for mixed fleets, fleets that use specialized equipment and non-regulated drivers. HOW DOES IT WORK: DOT-required (§396.11) and company-specific pre- and post-trip inspection data is captured through the ENCOMPASS® DVIR app without the need for additional hardware, and uses a driver-friendly interface to efficiently record inspection data. Inspection records captured through the smart device are then transmitted via cellular connection to the J. J. Keller® Encompass back office, making it easier to prioritize defects requiring certification of correction and identify units placed out of service. As a result, fleets can minimize downtime and improve vehicle and unit utilization. Additionally, the time-tracking functionality allows drivers to input hours through a basic clock in/out feature, which is then transmitted to the back office for reporting purposes. APP FEATURES: Unit Selection & DVIR Listing – Save time by selecting vehicles/units from a listing of all company equipment. Upon selection, the listing of unit related DVIRs (for the last 14 days) will be displayed, clearly identifying any DVIRs in need of review. Customized Pre- & Post-Trip Inspections – Create customized pre- and post-trip inspection records for powered, towed, and industrial equipment units, specifying inspection checklist criteria based on asset type. Results are then displayed in an easy-to-review format, simplifying the process to ensure all defects have been addressed. Inspection criteria can be generated for the following vehicle categories: • Heavy equipment (cranes, forklifts, material handling) • Specialized trailers (refrigerated, flatbeds, car haulers, etc.) • Dump, asphalt, bulk, and pneumatic trucks • Tank trucks • Box trucks, cargo vans, and pickups • Passenger, limos, and school busses • And more Timesheet Functionality – Improve reporting capabilities with the time-tracking functionality, which allows drivers to clock in and out during the day, and review and edit time for previous days as needed.
