Workflow steps
- Step 01
Quality inspection, milestone completion check, or defect liability dispute triggers the need to verify the condition of subcontractor work at a specific point in time.
Inferred - Step 02
QS, site manager, or quality engineer identifies the relevant work area, camera(s), and time period.
Evidenced - Step 03
the evidence system recordings accessed and the relevant time window reviewed to observe work quality and completion state.
Evidenced - Step 04
Where interior or close-up inspection is required, 360° captures from the relevant period reviewed.
Evidenced - Step 05
Defects or non-conformances identified during remote review are documented with timestamps and screenshots.
Evidenced - Step 06
Formal defect notice or NCR issued to the responsible subcontractor with preserved footage evidence attached.
Evidenced - Step 07
Subcontractor carries out remediation. Site manager monitors progress via live view or follow-up 360° capture.
Evidenced - Step 08
Remediated work re-inspected and signed off. Defect record closed.
Inferred - Step 09
Footage archive retained as documentary evidence for defect liability period.

Evidence records
Subcontractor work quality verified via recordings — footage used to back-check whether trade work was completed in the correct sequence and to specification before the next trade package commenced.
Even though all the pipework is under concrete or behind a wall, I was able to answer all his questions this morning about pipe connections, joint types, where pipes were run, etc.
Footage retrieved to verify rebar and formwork installation conditions prior to a concrete pour, establishing the as-installed sequence for quality assurance and future structural investigation purposes.
