Logmaster doesn't schedule servicing or manage workshop jobs. What it does handle is the daily side of keeping vehicles roadworthy: pre-start checks, defect reports and registration expiry alerts.
It sits alongside your maintenance system, with an NHVR approved electronic work diary at its core.
A driver spots a problem on a pre-start, notes it on a paper sheet, and the sheet sits in a tray. By the time the workshop hears about it, the vehicle has done another week of work.
Getting defects from the cab to the right person quickly is the part Logmaster handles.
Logmaster: The Daily Checks Side of Vehicle Upkeep
Drivers complete pre-start vehicle inspections in the app, and record keepers receive them in real time. Pre-start inspections can be exported as PDFs.
Customisable checklists include vehicle checks and defects, and can trigger responsibilities from what the driver enters, so a reported defect goes to the person who should act on it.
Vehicle registration expiry alerts give the office notice of renewals. For servicing schedules and workshop records, keep using your maintenance system.
Drivers complete the vehicle pre-start check in the app before heading out, based on what's required for their shift.
Defect Checklists
A customisable defects checklist lets drivers report problems in a consistent format from mobile or web.
Follow‑Up Assigned Automatically
Checklists can trigger responsibilities from form inputs, so a defect report reaches the right person.
Checks Recorded Without Signal
Pre-start checks completed out of range are kept and synced once the device reconnects.
Registration Expiry Alerts
The office is alerted ahead of vehicle registration renewals.
PDF Records for the File
Pre-start inspections and fitness declarations can be exported as PDFs for your records.
How Each Role Uses It
Heavy Vehicle Drivers
Drivers do their pre-start and report defects in the same app as their work diary, without paper sheets to hand in.
Fleet Managers and Record Keepers
Record keepers see pre-starts and defect reports as they're submitted, and can pass them on to the workshop or maintenance system.
Transport Business Owners
Owners get a record that vehicles are checked before use and defects are followed up, which supports the business's safety duties.
Part of a Wider Compliance Platform
Logmaster's checks and checklists sit within a platform used by more than 1,200 businesses, built around an NHVR approved EWD.
It's ISO 27001 certified, works across the HVNL states and territories and supports WA fatigue plans.

Drivers complete checks in the app, and the office passes defects to your workshop.
Not in the sense of scheduling servicing or managing workshop jobs. Logmaster handles daily vehicle checks, defect reporting and registration expiry alerts as part of its compliance platform. Use a dedicated maintenance system for service schedules and repair records.
Drivers can complete pre-start vehicle inspections and fitness declarations. Customisable checklists also include vehicle checks, defects, incidents, hazards and infringements.
Checklists can trigger responsibilities from what the driver enters. Set the defects checklist up so the relevant person is responsible when a problem is reported, and record keepers also see submissions in real time.
Yes. Pre-start inspections reach the record keeper in real time and can be exported as PDFs, so you can keep them with your vehicle records.
No. Logmaster sends registration expiry alerts but doesn't track servicing intervals. Keep servicing schedules in your maintenance system and use Logmaster for the daily checks.
