What you should know
When it is best to inspect
- Before the works begin — conformity assessment of the cost estimate before the contract is concluded;
- During the works — comparison of the cost estimate with the actual situation;
- After completion — a documented assessment that provides an objective basis for discussion between the parties.
Scope of services
- The inspection result is based on the scope of assessment, the methods applied and the evidence collected.
- The company does not perform the works it independently inspects, nor does it take part in the design of the facility.
- Mandatory requirements are neither altered nor reduced by agreeing the scope of services.
- An inspection does not imply a predetermined favourable conclusion and provides no guarantee of an administrative decision.
