Daily site diaries from crew notes
Turn each crew’s end-of-day voice notes, photos and checklists into a consistent daily site diary, so the site manager reviews and signs one record instead of chasing notes from every team.
Where it starts
The trigger.
Crews finish work on site for the day.
How it runs today
- Site diaries are written late from memory or skipped on busy days.
- Each crew records the day differently, so details are hard to find later.
- Delays, visitors and weather are not captured when they matter.
The workflow
Four bounded steps.
Each step has an owner and a stop rule.
- 01 / Capture
Crews send a short voice note, photos and a checklist tagged to the site and date.
- 02 / Draft
Draft the diary in the agreed template: work done, labour, deliveries, visitors, weather and issues.
- 03 / Flag
Flag safety observations, delays and anything that may affect the programme for the site manager.
- 04 / Sign
The site manager edits and signs the diary, and the final version is stored with the original notes and photos.
Where people stay in control
Approval points.
- The site manager reviews and signs every diary before it is filed.
- Safety observations go straight to the responsible person, not just into the diary.
How we would measure it
Against a baseline.
Measured before and after, on the same work.
Share of site days with a signed diary.
Time from end of shift to signed diary.
Issues flagged on the day versus found later.
