Crews and sign-in

Do crews need to install an app?

No. Crews scan the QR label with their phone camera and the check opens in the browser. Crew members sign in with a PIN their manager sets up.

How do crew members sign in?

A manager creates each crew account with a username and temporary password. The first time, the crew member sets a new password and a four-digit PIN. After that, their phone asks only for the PIN.

Do crew members need an email address?

No. Crew accounts use a username, so crew members don't need email.

What if a phone is left unlocked?

Crew sign-in locks after 15 minutes without use and asks for the PIN again.

Does it work for Spanish-speaking crews?

Yes. Every crew screen is available in English and Spanish, and each person can switch languages.

Checks and safety

Are the checklists DOT compliant?

The pre-trip and post-trip checklists are aligned with DOT inspection items, and you can see who checked what and when. Compliance depends on how your company runs its program, so review the checklists with whoever manages your DOT requirements.

What's on each checklist?

IronCheck picks the checklist from the equipment type. Truck checks cover the DOT pre-trip items, from brakes and steering to lights and emergency equipment. Equipment checks cover guards, emergency stops, controls, hydraulics and fluids. Trailer checks cover the hitch, safety chains, brakes, lights and load.

When do crews complete the job hazard analysis?

At each job site, before work starts. Each job visit gets its own JHA, which the crew lead completes, briefs and signs.

Can a crew finish a check later?

Yes. Checks save as drafts, so a crew member can leave and come back to finish.

What does voice do?

Crews can describe a check out loud. IronCheck turns that into a draft the crew reviews and submits. Voice never submits a check or releases equipment on its own.

Repairs and holds

What happens when a crew member fails an item?

IronCheck creates a repair task and puts that equipment on hold. A mechanic accepts the repair and records the work. When every defect on the equipment is resolved, the hold releases.

Who gets the repair?

If the branch has one mechanic, the repair goes straight to them to accept. If it has none or several, a manager assigns it.

Can a mechanic turn down a repair?

Yes, with a reason. The repair goes back to the unassigned list and the equipment stays on hold.

Can someone use a truck that's on hold?

No. Held equipment can't be picked for a job until every defect on it is fixed.

Records and data

Can I get my data out?

Yes. You can export inspections, JHAs, service history, fleet inventory, jobs and activity as CSV at any time.

Can a signed check be changed?

No. Signed checks, JHAs and service records are kept as signed and can't be edited or deleted.

Who can see our photos and records?

Only people in your company, and only for the branches they belong to.

Does voice keep recordings?

No. IronCheck uses the audio to fill in the draft and doesn't keep the recording.

Plans and integrations

What counts as a branch?

A branch is a yard or location with its own crews and equipment. Most companies have one branch per yard. Every branch is billed separately.

Do I pay for each truck or crew member?

No. The price is per branch, not per truck, trailer or crew member.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every plan starts with a free 14-day trial, and no card is needed to start.

Does it connect to Housecall Pro?

We're adding Housecall Pro schedule sync so crews see their scheduled jobs in IronCheck. Until then, managers add jobs in IronCheck. Ask about early access when you book a demo.
