Demo for Bennetts Cranes

Check sheets and timesheets, on the phone

The R6 daily inspection sheet, the R2 drivers time sheet and the supervisor’s equipment check, filled in one step at a time. Every sheet is timestamped and filed as a PDF in Google Drive, and faults are reported with photos the moment they’re found.

This is a demo with example data. Try anything you like: nothing is sent to Bennetts, the site or anyone else. It doesn’t have to look like this. The layout and colours can all change; this shows how it works.

1

Crane driver

Every day, from the cab
  • Pre-use check: the 32 items from the R6 sheet, a few per page, with ✓ / ✗ / N/A and an “All OK on this page” button.
  • Mark an item ✗ and add a photo: that’s a defect report. The office gets an email with the photo straight away.
  • Closedown at the end of the shift, lubrication and consumables, declaration and signature.
  • Timesheet: start and finish times each day, crane and zoning hours, then submit for approval.
  • No signal? Tap the yellow Demo mode pill to switch signal off. Checks save on the phone and send when signal returns.

Site manager / site agent

Once a week, from an email
  • When the driver submits the timesheet, the site agent gets an email with a link. No login or app needed.
  • They see the week’s hours and that week’s checks, type their name and approve or reject with a reason.
  • Once approved, the signed timesheet and the weekly inspection sheet go to the Bennetts office as PDFs, ready for the 4pm Monday deadline.
  • Each link works once and runs out after 14 days.

Crane supervisor

Every two weeks
Example form: this uses the Delta Tower Cranes lifting accessories register from a previous site, to show how the supervisor’s bi-weekly equipment check would work. Bennetts’ own supervisor sheet would replace it.
  • Every accessory on the site register, one at a time: chains, slings, forks, nets, skips. Serial number, SWL and thorough examination dates are already filled in.
  • Condition is Good, Fair (monitor) or Poor (quarantine), with comments and photos.
  • Examinations that are due soon or overdue are flagged. One demo item is overdue, so you can see what happens.
  • Declaration and signature, then a PDF report is filed and any quarantined item sends an alert.

Bennetts office / Appointed Person

Whenever you need it
  • A register of every sheet by week and site: checks, timesheets, supervisor reports and scans, with defects highlighted.
  • The weekly inspection sheet as one PDF, laid out like the paper R6.
  • Add sites and drivers, and give a driver a check-in code for a site. A relief driver can get a temporary code for the day.
  • Upload the paper copies collected at the monthly visit so everything is in one place.
  • Choose who gets defect alerts and where approved timesheets go.

Health & safety inspector or client

On the spot, no login

Every sheet lands in a Google Drive folder for the site, sorted by year and month. Share the folder and the latest copies are always there, the moment they’re sent.

How a week runs

  1. Every morningDriver does the pre-use check before the first lift. The PDF is filed in Drive and the time is stamped by the server, not the phone.
  2. Fault foundDriver marks it ✗ with a photo. The Bennetts office and the site get an email within a minute, with the photo and the PDF attached.
  3. End of shiftClosedown: hook block up, free slew, cab secure, defects reported.
  4. Every 2 weeksCrane supervisor checks the lifting accessories. Anything quarantined is flagged straight away.
  5. Friday / MondayDriver submits the timesheet. The site agent approves it from the email by 4pm Monday and the office gets the signed PDF.
  6. MonthlyOffice uploads any paper copies from the site visit, so the file is complete.

Already working

  • The driver check sheets and timesheet are live on the Ratan Tata Building crane (Kingerlee, Somerville College) as a trial.
  • Nothing to install. It opens in the phone’s browser and can be added to the home screen like an app.
  • Works with poor signal: it saves on the phone and sends later.
  • Everything is stored in Google Drive, so the records are easy to find and share.

Easy to change

  • Bennetts’ own colours, layout and wording.
  • Bennetts’ own supervisor sheet in place of the example.
  • Other forms, such as a weathervane register, a LOLER register or site audits.
  • Personal logins with passwords, and more sites and cranes.
