Octav helps inspection companies, municipalities and operators schedule public playground inspections, track every item of equipment and every impact-attenuating surface, and produce clear reports. One platform for the field, the reports and the client relationship.
A playground is inspected at three different rhythms: routine visual inspection, operational inspection and annual main inspection. Octav centralizes sites, play units, impact-attenuating surfaces, observations, photos and reports in a single tool, built for the field as much as for the back office.
Dozens of playgrounds, each with its own interval, is exactly what a spreadsheet lets slip. Octav computes the next due date of every playground and shows it on the home screen; if you turn it on, an email summary reminds you of it.
An observation, its photo and its recommendation stay attached to the equipment concerned and flow into the report.
Each inspection produces a PDF report filed in the playground's history, and all its reports can be downloaded together. No more reconstructing it by hand before an audit or a review meeting.
Octav helps you prepare inspection rounds, track every play unit and its safety surface, record non-conformities and produce reports your municipality can actually read.
Every play unit, every impact-attenuating surface and every piece of equipment has its own record, photos, manual and inspection history.
The inspection level (routine, operational or annual main, per EN 1176-7) is recorded on each playground's record and printed in the report; each playground has its own inspection interval.
Photograph wear, a missing part or a degraded surface: the observation, its photo and its recommendation flow into the report.
Each inspection produces a PDF report kept in the playground's history, ready to be shown or downloaded at any time.
The playground report is filled in on site, at a school, a campsite or a park, from the web software or the Android app.
Technical departments, social landlords and operators view and download their reports in their client portal.
Octav adapts to your teams’ field reality and to the way you prepare, carry out and deliver your inspections.
Playground inspection software should manage the inventory of equipment and impact-attenuating surfaces, the three levels of inspection, photo observations, corrective actions and the maintenance log. Octav brings together the playgrounds and their equipment, photo observations and reports in a single platform, on the web and in the Android app.
French regulations — decrees no. 94-699 of 10 August 1994 and no. 96-1136 of 18 December 1996 — require the operator to maintain a maintenance and upkeep plan. Practice, aligned with the NF EN 1176 and NF EN 1177 standards, distinguishes the routine visual inspection, the operational inspection (typically every 1 to 3 months) and the annual main inspection. In Octav, each playground carries its own inspection interval, and the inspection level is recorded on its record.
Not as a single log: each inspection produces a PDF report, observations included, kept in the playground's history. The municipality, the landlord or the operator finds it in their client portal.
Yes. Impact-attenuating surfaces (sand, wood chips, tiles, wet-pour) are tracked as equipment in their own right: type of surface, associated free height of fall, measured depth and observations all stay attached to the inspected zone.
Both use cases are covered. An inspection company manages its rounds, its clients and its reports across multiple municipalities; a municipality or an operator tracks its own playgrounds, its internal inspections and its contractors, with a client portal to share documents.
Through the playground's QR code, or an NFC tag you program with its link: it opens the playground record online, with the inspection history, reports and documents. QR codes are generated per playground, not per play unit. The person on site gets the information without digging through a binder.
