FAQs

What is the best equipment tracking system with compliance reporting?

The best systems combine equipment tracking software with built-in compliance management tools. Scannable is designed specifically for safety equipment, allowing teams to track gear inventories, allocate equipment to jobs, and record inspections with instant audit trails — all in one platform.

How do I track inspections to comply with regulations?

To comply with LOLER (UK), OSHA (US), or WHS (AU), inspection records must be documented, retained, and easily retrievable. A compliance tracking platform like Scannable stores inspection results digitally, links them directly to gear, and makes records searchable in seconds for regulators and audits.

How long do I need to store inspection records for compliance audits?

See our blog “How do I Manage Compliance and Inspection Reports in One Place” for a breakdown on record keeping requirements across geographies and regulations.

What’s the alternative to spreadsheets for compliance inspections?

Spreadsheets are manual, error-prone, and hard to scale. A cloud-based compliance management platform automates compliance workflows, sends reminders for inspections, and creates audit-ready records without manual data entry.

Can I scan any brand of safety equipment into a compliance system?

Yes. Scannable is the only compliance tracking software that works with Smart PPE™ from 50+ global safety equipment brands — plus provides durable retro-tagging options. That means you can scan and track any brand of safety gear with just your mobile phone, no expensive RFID gun required.

How does compliance software create audit trails?

Every inspection, allocation, or status update is logged automatically. A digital audit trail provides proof of compliance for regulators and auditors, ensuring full accountability and transparency.

Which features should I look for in compliance or safety equipment management software?

Key features include:
Compliance checklists and workflows
Secure audit trails
Mobile scanning for equipment tracking
Automatic inspection reminders
Cloud-based data storage for easy access
Compatibility with LOLER, OSHA, and WHS requirements
