Scaffold

A scaffold tag that survives being modified three times before lunch.

Scaffolds get altered mid-shift by whoever needs an extra plank, which is exactly when the original inspection stops applying. A QR tag ties every re-check to that specific structure.

How it works

Three steps from sticker to audit trail

No rollout project and no training day. The tag on the scaffold is the entire interface.

1

Tag every scaffold

Durable QR labels arrive pre-registered to your account. Nothing onthe sticker identifies you — the link between tag and company lives on the server.

2

First scan sets it up

Scanning an unclaimed code walks you through naming the scaffold, choosing a checklist and setting how often it needs checking.

3

Every scan after is the record

Anyone with a phone sees when it was last inspected and files the next one. Overdue scaffolds surface before an inspector finds them.

On the checklist

What a scaffold check actually covers

Start from a checklist that already knows the job, then change anything you want. Before each shift, and again after any alteration to height, bracing, or decking..

  • Base plates on sound mud sills or footing
  • Guardrails and toeboards fully installed
  • Planking fully decked, no gaps or overhang beyond limit
  • Cross braces and locking pins secured
  • Tag identifies competent person and shift date

Why it has to be provable

OSHA 1926.451

Requires scaffolds to be inspected by a competent person before each work shift and after any occurrence that could affect structural integrity.

Cited as a guide to what auditors look for. Confirm the edition and any local amendments that apply to your site — adoption varies by jurisdiction.

Guys move planks and add levels all day. The tag from this morning is meaningless by afternoon.

That's the point of tying the record to a scan instead of a sheet stapled to the frame days ago. Re-inspect after any alteration and scan again; the timestamp shows exactly when the structure was last verified, not when someone first put it up.

Why teams switch

Built for site superintendents and competent persons; the crew building or altering the scaffold signs off.

The spreadsheet was never the problem. Proving the check actually happened is.

Evidence, not assertions

Every inspection carries its timestamp, the person who filed it and the photos they took. A record that cannot be back-dated is worth more than one that can.

Overdue surfaces itself

Assets past their interval are flagged on the dashboard and emailed to whoever owns them, so a missed check is noticed by you and not by an inspector.
