How can US elevator companies stay audit-ready for AHJ inspections year-round?

US elevator companies stay audit-ready year-round by maintaining real-time compliance dashboards that track inspection due dates, maintenance completion records, and technician certifications for every unit in the portfolio. ElevatorPlus flags units approaching inspection deadlines 60 and 30 days in advance, triggers PM completion checks, and generates inspection readiness reports that can be shared with AHJs on demand. Companies using proactive inspection management report near-zero failed inspections compared to those tracking compliance manually in spreadsheets.

What are the most common reasons US elevators fail AHJ inspections?

The most common reasons US elevators fail AHJ inspections are overdue preventive maintenance visits, missing or incomplete maintenance log entries, expired technician certifications, and unresolved deficiency notices from the previous inspection cycle. AHJ inspectors check documentation first - an elevator in perfect mechanical condition can still fail inspection if the maintenance records are incomplete or unavailable. Digital compliance management ensures records are always current, complete, and accessible regardless of which technician performed the last service.

What documentation do US elevator companies need ready for AHJ inspections?

US elevator companies need the following documentation ready for AHJ inspections: maintenance logs for the current period per the ASME A17.1 MCP, proof of technician licensure for all personnel who performed maintenance, previous inspection reports with resolved deficiencies, and current certificate of operation. In many US states, digital versions of these documents are now accepted, and some AHJs are moving toward direct database access from contractor management platforms. ElevatorPlus generates a pre-inspection documentation package in one click covering all required records.
