Zonar, a smart fleet technology provider, has unveiled Inspection Builder, the latest customization feature within its electronic verified inspection reporting product, EVIR Mobile. The new configuration tool is flexible enough for all fleet types, including freight, pupil, transit, and construction–tailoring inspection requirements to their specific needs while maintaining Department of Transportation and Occupational Safety and Health Administration compliance for standard pre- and post-trip inspections on popular vehicle types.
“This pioneering feature empowers fleet managers to customize asset inspections for maximum operational efficiency,” said Mike Gould, chief operating officer at Zonar. “As the nation grapples with critical driver shortages, fleets can streamline new driver onboarding with customized inspections that cater to company-specific language and safety policies.”

- Utilize the Map View feature to ease driver workflows and onboarding.
- Modify protocols for tag placements, terminology, and vehicle zone numbers and components.
- Name inspections and provide a short description for operators.
- Display the fields to complete, such as odometer, route number, shipping documents, and more.
- Determine if assets or certain zone tags need to be scanned.
- Create standalone deep-dive inspections on specific components such as tires and brakes.
On its own, EVIR Mobile ensures that drivers and operators perform proper inspections by physically scanning equipment tags for accurate results that are uploaded and easily accessed in Zonar’s fleet management platform, Ground Traffic Control.
Now, Inspection Builder’s configuration capabilities make it even easier for fleets to integrate new components into inspections, such as timecards for payroll, fuel level monitoring, sanitization requirements, and other protocols to simplify inspections.
“The inspection builder has made it possible to streamline our inspection process and save a ton of time,” said Kevin Adkins, TriRiver Transit.
