Field
Every work package carries its inspection stages, its zone-by-stage matrix and its checklists. The controls that matter — hold points, sign-offs, open failures — sit on the record, not in a separate tracker.
Zone × stage matrix · Drylining
1 hold point awaiting releaseWatch it run
A single inspection followed the whole way: the specification clause becomes a checklist, the checklist meets the drawing and the zone matrix, the subcontractor works it at the slab edge, the main contractor rejects it, and it closes on the second pass with the signature history intact.
Who works here
Needs to know which stages are closed, which are stuck at a hold point and which failures are still open — across every package.
The matrix answers it per zone, without chasing spreadsheets.
Runs the subcontractor day to day and needs pre-start requirements, ITP and RAMS review in one place.
Package readiness and review sit on the package itself.
Signs off work at the workface and needs the checklist, acceptance criteria and evidence requirements in hand.
The checklist item says what good looks like and what to photograph.
Packages start with a trade-specific stage sequence and linked checklists, then adapt to the project specification. An unrecognised package name still lands with a generic sequence — a package is never created empty.
The two documents a main contractor reviews before a subcontractor starts get a document-control workflow rather than an inbox — including supersede and expire, so a newer revision replaces its predecessor and a time-limited RAMS lapses rather than sitting approved forever.
Hold points and trade handovers gate stage completion until the required sign-off is present. Open inspections and unresolved QA failures can block a stage from closing.
Site logs, tasks and photo evidence keep the day-to-day record beside the packages it relates to.
01
A zone assignment creates the inspection record against the right stage and checklist.
02
The subcontractor works the checklist, attaches evidence and signs the result as available for inspection.
03
The main contractor reviews, marks failed items and signs off — or rejects with the failures assigned for rework.
04
Rework is re-attested and the record closes with the full signature history preserved.
Hold points and sign-off gate completion of the relevant stage; they do not lock successor stages from starting.
