Driver-first checks
Large, clear mobile actions keep the check practical for real working conditions instead of squeezing an office form onto a phone.
Daily walkaround checks
A walkaround check should start with the driver and stay connected to what happens next.
Rivetway gives drivers a focused mobile flow for daily vehicle checks and defect reporting, then keeps the evidence connected as the office and workshop review, act and record the outcome.
What the workflow gives you
Keep the useful evidence connected.
Rivetway is designed around accountable operational records rather than unexplained status badges or claims that software can replace professional judgement.
Defect evidence stays attached
Notes, photos and the original driver report can stay with the vehicle record so the issue is easier to follow.
Office and workshop handoff
A reported issue can move into review and workshop action without recreating the same information in separate systems.
Traceable outcome
The record can retain what was reported, what action followed and how the issue was resolved rather than only showing a final status.
Connected workflow
From the first record to the action that follows it.
01Driver completes the daily vehicle check
02Any defect and supporting evidence reach the operation
03Office or workshop reviews the issue
04Action and resolution remain linked to the original report
Scope and responsibility
No invented compliance claims.
Rivetway supports record keeping and workflow. It does not replace the operator's legal responsibilities, a competent person's judgement, required inspections or any statutory tachograph or maintenance process.
Common questions
Clear answers before you rely on the software.
Is Rivetway a DVSA-approved app?
Rivetway does not claim DVSA approval or endorsement. It is software designed to help operators record and manage their own walkaround-check and defect workflow.
Can a driver report a defect from a phone?
Yes. Rivetway's driver experience is designed around focused mobile actions for checks, defects and supporting evidence.
Can photos stay with the defect record?
Rivetway is designed to keep supporting evidence such as photos and notes with the relevant report so office and workshop users can see the context.
Does the software make a roadworthiness decision?
No. Rivetway records and routes information; the operator and authorised people remain responsible for inspection, maintenance and roadworthiness decisions.
