Inspection, Commissioning and Closeout Coordination

A completed installation still needs the agreed inspection, test and acceptance records. True North coordinates outstanding requirements and the final handoff so owners can see what is accepted and what remains open.

For owners, project teams and delivery partners nationwide. The written scope identifies True North’s work, the responsible professionals and any separately contracted construction.

What the scope can include

Select the work and handoff your project needs. The agreement identifies the included deliverables and responsibilities.

  • Inspection coordination

    Organize inspection requests, approved documents, access and correction lists. Track results against the correct permit and work area; the authorized inspector or authority makes the acceptance decision.

  • Testing and commissioning

    Coordinate materials tests, system testing, balancing, commissioning and specialist verification where included. Match reports to locations and equipment, and route failures to the responsible party for resolution.

  • Approvals and owner handover

    Collect final approvals, occupancy-related records, as-builts, manuals, warranties and outstanding actions. Separate operational readiness, permit closure and contractual completion instead of assuming one proves all three.

Prepare for the assignment

You can start with incomplete records. Tell us what is available and what still needs to be established.

  • Information to bring

    Permit and inspection records, issued drawings and changes, test reports, contractor completion information, operating manuals and the owner’s handoff requirements.

  • The agreed handoff

    A closeout register and indexed handoff package identifying accepted items, unresolved corrections, remaining permits and warranty responsibilities.

Decisions, fees and timing

Scope and dependencies determine the proposal. No universal price or approval date is assumed.

  1. Confirm the basis and responsibility

    Review the available records, intended endpoint and authority to use the information. Assign missing inputs, technical decisions and the parties who can authorize changes.

  2. Coordinate and review the work

    Prepare the included documents from agreed inputs, resolve interfaces with responsible specialists and track revisions. Record external decisions and conditions separately from work prepared for review.

  3. Account for project-specific dependencies

    Missing records, reinspection, correction work, testing access and the availability of agency, owner and specialist acceptance.

  4. Deliver the defined milestone

    Provide the controlling documents and remaining-action record. Identify what is accepted, what still requires a decision and what belongs to a separately contracted next stage.

Before you begin

Common questions

Does passing one inspection close the project?

No. Verify every applicable permit, discipline and contractual handoff requirement. The closeout register distinguishes each accepting party and remaining action.

Can missing as-builts be created from the original design?

Design drawings are background. Record drawings need supported installation information and must identify what remains unverified.
