Train Inspection
A Streamlined Assessment of Locomotive and Conductor Safety
Digitized inspection forms help departments of transportation (DOTs) capture critical data on site.
Challenge
It’s imperative that information on performance and condition of train cars and operators is
accurate. Manual processes leave significantly more room for error in recording it.
Solution
The SimpliGov platform helps DOTs:
- Collect and neatly organize data on:
- Parts and equipment (e.g., headlights, wipers, engine, speaker clarity and volume, LEDs)
- Cars (e.g., access panels, doors, seats, walls, windows, heating, lighting, A/C)
- Conductors (e.g., background, punctuality, uniform cleanliness, proper operation, announcement clarity)
- Ride quality (e.g., noise, bumpiness, speed)
- Customize and automate workflows for follow-up action items upon filing of reports (e.g., repairs go to appropriate maintenance specialists, disciplinary action referred to supervisor and HR)
- Tabulate and calculate severity-level scoring and tie it to escalation routing for egregious findings
