Tablet view of a daily rig check on E21 — sectioned checklist (Cab / Pump / Hose / Equipment / Controlled Substances) with checkmarks accumulating as the firefighter taps through. One item failed, highlighted in red.

What it does

30-second rig check on a tablet at the side of the bay.

Every shift, every apparatus, every day. The rig check happens. It used to happen on a clipboard with a pen and the clipboard would live in a drawer.

Watchroom's rig check is a tablet at the side of the bay. The firefighter taps through. Items the dept defines, organized by apparatus. A failed item opens a work order automatically, takes the rig OOS, and surfaces on the next dispatch.

How it works

Three things that change.

Per-apparatus checklist with sections and items

Per-apparatus checklists

Each apparatus has its own checklist — E21 has different items than M3. Items grouped by section. Photos required where needed.

Failure → work order flow showing auto-population

Auto-open work order on fail

Failing item opens a work order with the failure details pre-populated. The apparatus officer doesn't have to take a separate action.
