Why are Checklists Important?
Even before technology stepped in, checklists were a way to ensure everything that needs to be done is done. It not only helps the one doing the tasks but also the one checking and monitoring these tasks. Paper checklists were a practical way to create to-do lists and calendar reminders so productivity can be monitored and important tasks and projects can be recorded.
Today’s always connected, always online world, however, has made the paper mindset obsolete—due in no small part to the challenges organizations have to contend with in storing paper records and keeping them intact. Bulky file cabinets take up space that you could have used for other office equipment. Paper records are also prone to wear and tear, and if you’re not meticulous, they can even get lost. Once paper records and files are lost or destroyed, there is no way to retrieve them and you are left with no record of what took place.
Storage and file retrieval is not the only problem you have to face when dealing with paper records. You also have to deal with inefficiencies, spotty records, and lack of real-time data, which is essential in many industries like construction, food safety, and the like. Thanks to online checklists and free checklist makers, these problems have been all but eliminated. Regular inspections and audits can now be done using a mobile device with software like iAuditor. Data can then be shared immediately after with auto-generated reports made available online. Information is saved and can be updated in the cloud so the appropriate personnel have access to the latest information anytime, anywhere.
Used right, a checklist maker can mean the difference between a haphazard organization and one with a well planned safety culture. Follow the simple tips below to maximize use of digital checklists.
- Ask the right questions.
Ensure that you have a clear and specific objective in mind before creating a digital checklist. The questions or items on a checklist will differ depending on use case, but what’s important is that the purpose of the checklist is clear so you can determine the appropriate questions.
- Set priorities.
Not all items on your checklist will have the same weight, and this should be reflected by how the questions and items are structured. Highlight the most vital questions and put them higher on the checklist if possible. All items on the checklist will be important, but questions that concern hazards, safety, and quality should always be a priority.
- Make interactive checklists.
Intuitive checklists with interactive elements help promote the use of digital checklists and ensure that no inspections are missed. It also makes the inspection process easier so auditors and safety inspectors can focus on what’s important, instead of fiddling with files and paper checklists. Adding photos and annotations also make inspections clearer and more accurate—and all this information is made available online immediately after every inspection.
