A contractor attending site does not prove the work is complete, tested or safe to accept.
This workflow connects approved building notes and contractor calls to a formal maintenance-acceptance gate.
The six acceptance checks
| Check | Evidence |
|---|---|
| Scope | Approved work and exclusions completed |
| Safety | Isolations, guards, access and temporary controls restored |
| Function | Test or commissioning result |
| Compliance | Certificate, permit, fire or asbestos record where required |
| Information | Asset history, drawings, manuals and warranty updated |
| Defects | Outstanding items, owner and target date recorded |
The BUILD inspection note
- B — Building: site, floor, room and access point.
- U — Unit: asset number, system or fabric element.
- I — Issue: factual condition and photograph reference.
- L — Limit: temporary control, restricted access or operational effect.
- D — Delivery: work order, owner, priority and review time.
Before authorising intrusive work
Check asbestos information, isolations, permits, competence, fire effects, occupants and other contractors. A voice note saying “probably clear” is not a survey or permit.
The inspection-to-work-order workflow
- Control immediate risk.
- Record from a safe private position.
- Identify asset and evidence precisely.
- Correct locations, dates and contractor names.
- Check asbestos, fire, permit and isolation information.
- Create the formal work order with scope and acceptance evidence.
- Coordinate competent contractors.
- Apply the six acceptance checks.
- Update CAFM, registers and asset history.
- Delete temporary audio under policy.
Contractor commitments
Record attendance window, scope, exclusions, parts, cost assumption and evidence due. Confirm material terms and instructions in writing.
“Engineer attended” is not a completion status. “Test result passed, isolation removed, asset history updated and no open defects” is a controlled acceptance record.
Security-sensitive information
Do not dictate access codes, alarm details or vulnerabilities unnecessarily. Use asset references, managed accounts and restricted systems.
