Lifting & LOLER
CraneCert
How a specialist lifting inspection business moved its asset registers, thorough examination schedules and LOLER reporting onto CertFlow.
1,800 lifting assets under thorough examination
109 client sites managed in one register
65% less admin time per examination round
The challenge
- Examination due dates tracked manually, with reminders easy to miss across hundreds of assets
- Reports of thorough examination written up by hand after each visit, slowing turnaround
- No single, searchable record of every asset by client, site and safe working load
- Defect and do-not-use records hard to surface quickly for clients
What they did with CertFlow
- Every crane, hoist, sling and accessory held in a single register by client, site and safe working load, with automated reminders so no examination falls due unnoticed
- Reports of thorough examination generated straight from completed jobs, with defects, observations and timescales recorded for HSE scrutiny
- Engineers capture results, defects and photos on site and close out visits without returning to office paperwork
- A client portal showing lifting assets, certificates and examination status, including any equipment marked unsafe to use
CertFlow has put every lifting asset and every examination date in one place. Our engineers complete reports on site, defects are flagged straight to the client, and nothing slips past its due date. It is the first system that actually fits how a lifting inspection business works.
