Crane check books go digital

The UK's Construction Plant Association (CPA) has introduced a digital version of its crane inspection check books, developed in partnership with digital solutions provider Capja.

The new books replace traditional printed daily and weekly check books for mobile and crawler cranes with QR coded electronic forms that can be completed via smartphone or tablet. The digital platform allows instant sharing of inspection records and defect reports between crane owners, maintenance teams, users and site managers.

The CPA is offering a trial period for current users of its paper based system, with Capja providing implementation support throughout the process.
