Digitizing Quality Assurance

VAA and HeadLight have partnered to develop HeadLight’s Smartforms Technology to digitize certain Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) test log (TL) forms related to density testing and tack coat application rates. These paper TL forms have been converted into Smartforms in a web-based application. Paving superintendents will use the Headlight platform to document project information; density technicians will use the newly created Smartforms to collect, report and store data required by VDOT in the specifications quality assurance program.

Smartforms Benefits:

  • Reduce errors with dynamic calculation
  • Clean .pdf that can be sent from the field
  • Each form is saved as a pdf with a generated form# and a changeable file name
  • Easy searchability
  • Learn from the data
  • Display results graphically
  • Can be combined with HeadLight Fieldbook
  • Accountability with an audit trail
  • Density profile across a network
  • Forms included in the bundle are:
    • TL-56; TL-57; TL-58; TL-59A, B, C; TL-60; TL-60A; TL-143

Smartforms Requirements:

  • HeadLight Fieldbook and Smartforms are iOS apps that run on Apple devices, with the iPad as the preferred device. HeadLight leases iPads, so let us know if you are interested in that leasing program.
  • Each user needs a license and associated login credentials to sign in to the app.
  • Only one user can be logged into a device at any given time. Users can share a device, but not at the same time so you could use one device for both the day and night shifts.
  • Internet access or cellular connectivity is required for Smartforms, but is not required for Fieldbook functionality, as data captured in Fieldbook is stored locally and can sync when back in a connected environment.
