What this means in practice

  • A fixed site camera or a crew phone takes pictures of each scaffold from the same angles on a set schedule, such as at the start of each shift and after high winds or changes.
  • The model is trained on the contractor own scaffold images. It marks missing or loose guardrails, mid rails and toe boards, gaps, broken or overloaded planks, missing base plates, sole boards or wheel locks, missing ties and bracing, debris or materials piled on the deck, and missing, wrong color or out of date inspection tags.
  • Each mark is saved with the photo, the scaffold ID or location and the date, so the team can see which scaffolds need work most often and plan fixes by priority, with missing edge protection sent straight to the site lead.
  • A competent person reviews every mark and decides what gets fixed and whether the scaffold can be used. Cameras point at the scaffold, not at workers, and any people caught in view are blurred.
  • Start with a few scaffolds on one site, compare the marks with what the competent person finds on their own rounds for a few weeks, and keep the required inspections, tagging, standards, work orders and records in place. Camera checks add to those inspections and never replace them.

How Lid Vizion approaches it

We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
