This is the largest driver of escalating project costs and delays . Early inspection is critical to systematic risk management and productivity . For any construction inspector , it ’ s vital to keep a log of all contractor activities , manage installations to specifications , monitor and document all materials delivered and used onsite , prepare snag lists and maintain a presence at all project meetings . Technology can help in these processes , ensuring completeness of information across the whole project value chain .
