Inspections — Overview

Template-driven quality inspections with multi-party review workflows, automatic issue creation, and configurable policies.

Inspections is where you run quality checks on your construction work. Build checklists from templates, execute them in the field with Pass/Fail/NA verdicts, and route results through a multi-party review workflow — Performer → Checker → Approver — before anything gets signed off.

Inspections register grouped by status, with the scope, a progress bar and the assignee on each row — Inspections hub — every inspection's status and progress in one list

What's Inside

Area	What It Handles	When You'll Use It
Inspections Hub	List of all inspections with status, progress, and assignees	Creating new inspections, tracking progress, managing assignments
Execution	Recording verdicts, attaching evidence, submitting for review	Field work — going through checklist items on-site
Templates	Reusable checklists and multi-checklist collections	Setting up what gets inspected before field work begins
Issues	Defects and deficiencies across every category — quality, safety, punch list, and more	Tracking defect resolution and linking back to inspection items

How the Pieces Connect

Templates define what to check. Inspections use those templates in the field. Failed items create quality issues. Issues must be resolved before reinspection can pass.

Multi-Party Workflow

Every inspection follows a sequential review process:

Party	Role	What They Do
Performer	Field inspector	Goes through each item, records Pass/Fail/NA, attaches evidence
Checker	First reviewer	Reviews performer's work, agrees or disagrees with each item
Approver	Final authority	Reviews all prior work, approves or rejects the inspection

Sequential Review

Only the current party can record verdicts. The inspection must advance through each party in order — no skipping. Each party's verdicts are stored separately and form part of the audit trail.

Accessing Inspections

Quick Tips

Templates first — set up your checklists and collections before creating inspections
Auto-create issues — toggle on auto-create issue for failures to avoid double-entry
Photo evidence — capture photos at the point of inspection for GPS-tagged records
Reinspection policies — configure what gets cleared on reinspection in Admin → Inspection Policies
Mobile-friendly — the checklist switches to a card layout on phones for field use
