"Who is on the 20-tonner right now — and is he actually certified for it?" On most sites that question takes phone calls and hope; after an incident it takes a week and a lawyer. HVI answers it in one tap: every operator's licences, certifications, medicals, and authorised machines in one register, checked automatically at every assignment — sign up free and load your crew this week.

Operator & Driver Management

Track Which Operator Is Certified for Which Equipment

Licences, certifications, medicals, machine authorisations, and daily hour logs — one register per operator, one check at every assignment, zero uncertified pairings leaving the yard.

The Same Question, Answered Three Ways

The Paper Site

The answer lives in a register at the time office, a file at HR, and the supervisor's memory — three sources, none current, and the honest reply is "probably Ramesh, and probably fine." After an incident, "probably" becomes the whole case.

The WhatsApp Site

Faster but no truer — someone photographs a licence, someone else confirms by voice note, and the group chat becomes a compliance record nobody can search, export, or defend six months later.

The System Site

The dashboard shows the pairing live: operator, machine, authorisation status, and every supporting document two taps deep — the same answer for the supervisor at 7 AM and the auditor in July.

What Lives on Every Operator's Card

Identity & Contact Photo, employer (own or contractor), site, and reporting line — who this person is, settled once
Licences & Classes Driving licence with class endorsements and badges, scanned, dated, and on expiry ladders
Certifications & Medicals Training certificates, statutory VT where applicable, and medical fitness — each on its own renewal clock
Authorised Machines The machine-category tags that drive the assignment check — an excavator tag is not a dumper tag
Daily Hours & Pre-Starts Which machine, which shift, which hours — logged from the operator's own mobile as work happens
History & Incidents Inspections completed, defects raised, incidents involved — the professional record that follows the person, not the paperwork drawer

Load the Crew Once — Then Every Assignment Checks Itself

Operators load in minutes each: photo, documents, machine tags. From then on the register runs the discipline — expiry alerts ahead of every date, assignment checks at every dispatch, hour logs building daily, and exports answering any audit. Bring your crew list, contractors included, to a 30-minute session and our India team sets it up with you.

The Crew Board a Supervisor Actually Uses

Operator Authorised For Status Next Date to Watch
Devraj S. Excavator 20T, Rock Breaker Clear Medical — 74 days
Sushil K. (contractor) Dumper, Water Tanker Clear Licence renewal — 41 days
Anil P. Wheel Loader Watch Refresher training — 12 days
Prakash M. Grader, Dozer Blocked Medical lapsed — redeployed until cleared

One screen, sortable by site and machine class: who is clear, who needs a renewal booked, and who cannot be assigned today — with the reason attached. The morning allocation meeting reads this board instead of reconstructing it.

The Dispatch Moment, Both Ways

The Pairing Is Clear

Supervisor assigns Devraj to the 20-tonner; the system verifies his tags, licence, medical, and training in the background and the assignment simply happens — the check costs nobody a second when everything is in order, which is the point.

The Pairing Is Not

The same tap on a lapsed medical or a missing tag blocks with the reason shown — and if a genuine emergency demands it, a manager-level override proceeds with name, reason, and timestamp logged. The system suggests and protects; it never hides what happened.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can one operator be authorised for several machine types?

Yes — tags are per machine category with their own supporting documents, so a versatile operator carries an excavator tag, a loader tag, and a breaker endorsement side by side, and the assignment check reads whichever pairing today's allocation needs.

What about relief and temporary operators?

They join the register before they join the seat — a ten-minute onboarding with documents scanned beats a shift of unverified operation every time, and the record persists so the same relief operator returns pre-verified next season.

Does this cover DGMS requirements at mine sites?

The register holds the mine-side stack — statutory VT, medicals, and the manager's written authorisation per category — on ladders with evidence attached, and non-mine sites simply run the same discipline with their applicable documents. One system, scoped per site's regime.

Can the hour logs feed payroll and billing?

Operator-wise and machine-wise hour reports export cleanly for payroll inputs, contractor billing, and utilisation analysis — the same daily log serving compliance, wages, and hire disputes at once; sign up free and see the exports on your own data.

Will operators actually use the app?

The operator's screen is deliberately small: today's machine, the pre-start checklist, photo capture, and hours — in Hindi or English, offline-capable, learnable in one toolbox talk. See the operator flow end-to-end in a 30-minute demo with our India team.
