Case Study: Kimmins achieves paperless inspections and DOT compliance with Whip Around

Whip Around Solves Kimmins’ Paper Nightmare and Ensures DOT Compliance

Kimmins, a long-established industrial and commercial construction and demolition contractor, was buried in paper DVIRs and three-year DOT archiving requirements while managing a fleet of 48 vehicles and 300 pieces of heavy equipment. Operations Manager Frank Inturrisi needed a way to reach his goal of near-100% DOT compliance and eliminate the “paperwork nightmare,” so Kimmins turned to Whip Around’s digital vehicle and equipment inspection solution.

Whip Around deployed its mobile inspection app and custom form builder so drivers could complete DVIRs with photos, automated time/date/GPS stamps, and instant fault forwarding to mechanics. The change streamlined inspections (now performed each morning), cut administrative effort, sped repairs, reduced downtime, and improved compliance and visibility — results Kimmins staff and its mechanic praised, with Inturrisi noting, “I love the simplicity.”
