Real-Time Control for Playground Operations

Running playground equipment inspection & repair means handling inventory of structures, routine safety audits, CSA/EN/ASTM compliance checks, wear/damage detection, hardware/swing chain replacements, surfacing depth/top-up, trip hazard fixes, vandalism repairs, and after-incident rechecks — across schools, parks, HOAs, and commercial sites with strict access windows. Teams need live visibility of who’s on-site, which assets/zones are in scope, what parts and surfacing materials are issued, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Playground Inspection & Repair — clear statuses, precise assignments, and clean handoffs between office, inspectors, repair crews, and clients.
