Queensland is digitising the work of its transport inspectors with a mobile application to replace paper notebooks.

Queensland's heavy vehicle inspections go digital

The application, developed for the Department of Transport and Main Roads by Motorola Solutions, is designed to streamline how operational information is processed, stored and analysed.

The Queensland Compliance Information System (QCIS) gives transport inspectors the ability to conduct a vehicle intercept (a random heavy vehicle inspection) in 15 minutes.

In a statement, Motorola said inspectors using QCIS can record up to 3000 vehicle intercepts a month, including issuing as many as 1000 compliance forms (which include infringement notices).

The application also supports sharing Queensland heavy vehicle information with the national regulator.

The solution runs on iPads, with a web management portal giving transport inspectors access to real-time vehicle registration and licensing information.

QCIS is also integrated with compliance databases for a range of vehicles, and with Queensland’s digital driver’s licence app.

The digital driver’s licence entered service in November 2023 following trials announced in April 2023.

“By equipping Queensland’s road inspectors with the latest digital technology, they can better uphold the state’s road regulations and compliance requirements which ultimately benefits all road users in our state,” minister for transport and main roads, and minister for digital services Bart Mellish said.
