Check Sheet App

Digital pre-start and H&S check sheets — no paper required.

The Argus Check Sheet App digitises vehicle pre-start and health & safety inspections — replacing paper forms with a fast, mobile-first process that automatically logs results against the vehicle record in the Argus system. Drivers complete check sheets on their phone before starting a shift; any issues identified trigger an instant notification to the fleet manager. Unlimited custom Check Sheets on the OMNI and VISION AI plans mean you can tailor inspections to every vehicle and asset type in your fleet — and always have a searchable, digital audit trail ready.
