Common mistakes

Writing vague notes such as 'all good' without location, drawing reference, trade, or evidence.
Leaving signature, date, revision, or responsible-person fields blank.
Filing the form in only one person's phone instead of the project record.
Using the form to approve a technical change without an RFI, designer/engineer instruction, minor variation, amendment, or contract approval where required.

Storage and document control

Store in the project document system under the matching folder: safety, quality, contract, council/CCC, handover, or site administration. Keep photos with the same date and location reference.

Source / Where to check

Check the current consented drawings and specifications, project contract, Auckland Council records and inspection requirements, MBIE Building Performance guidance, WorkSafe NZ guidance, relevant NZ Standard, consultant instructions, producer statements, product technical information, warranties, and manufacturer installation instructions.

Insufficient data to verify — confirm against the current consented drawings, specifications, Auckland Council requirements, Auckland Unitary Plan, NZ Building Code, relevant NZ Standard, consultant advice, manufacturer instructions, insurance broker, insurer, lender, lawyer, accountant or project contract.
