- The team reviewed submittals and site observations against approved selections, dimensions, and accessibility clearances; my scope was data preparation, quality checks, and follow-up documentation under senior review. The team documented deviations and verified corrections before closeout; documented my assigned work separately from the team result and confirmed it with a senior colleague.
- Within the assigned scope, reconciled consultant comments across plans, sections and schedules, checked the drawing revision against the approved scope, and recorded the outstanding site question before issue.
