Ultra Toolkit

One app to gather insights from your drivers on their working lives.

Pull data like walkaround checks, fit-to-drive certification and defect reporting. Push communications like announcements, training, “who to call in case of…” guides and documents. All linked to your driver and their vehicle by QR code.

Why it matters

Daily vehicle checks are a legal requirement

Toolkit is fully configurable to individual needs, providing every user with a personalised experience tailored to their role and responsibilities. From paperless vehicle checks and fit-to-work certification to defect reporting, training, and document management, everything is accessible in one place and linked to the user and vehicle via QR code.

Toolkit is that system

With regulations requiring a daily vehicle check and a trackable record to demonstrate compliance, Toolkit helps ensure every check is completed, recorded, and readily available when needed.

1

A daily check is mandatory

The DVSA requires commercial vehicle drivers to complete a daily walkaround check. Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) Regulations 1986 · Road Traffic Act 1988.

2

Drivers are personally liable

Commercial drivers are personally responsible for the condition of the vehicle they drive, and any defect must be reported to their employer.

3

Employers must manage the risk

The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 requires employers to manage the risks faced by employees driving for work.

4

Operator licensing demands a system

Commercial operators must be able to demonstrate that a system is in place to keep vehicles roadworthy.

5

Non-compliance is enforced on both sides

The DVSA targets both the driver and the operator. A clear, trackable written or digital record must exist to report and rectify vehicle defects.
