DVIR & defects

DVIR software that turns a failed inspection into a work order

Drivers run electronic pre-trip and post-trip DVIRs and flag defects with a Safe or Unsafe result. Every defect is tracked to resolution and becomes a work order in one click — and engine fault codes flow in from your telematics, so nothing slips through.

DVIR software FAQ

What is DVIR software?

DVIR (Driver Vehicle Inspection Report) software lets drivers complete electronic pre-trip and post-trip inspections, flag defects, and track them through repair. Fleetpal turns any flagged defect into a work order.

Does Fleetpal support electronic DVIRs?

Yes — electronic pre-trip and post-trip inspections with a Safe or Unsafe result, completed on mobile.

How does a defect become a work order?

A flagged defect can be turned into a work order in one click, linked to the unit and the right VMRS component.

Can I track which defects are still open?

Yes — defects are tracked as unresolved, in progress, and resolved across the whole fleet.

Does Fleetpal monitor engine fault codes?

Yes — fault codes come through your telematics integration, so mechanical issues surface automatically alongside driver-reported defects.

How do DVIRs help with recordkeeping?

Electronic DVIRs create a documented inspection trail — Safe/Unsafe results, dates, defects, and resolution — that supports your inspection records.
