Problems shops hit every week
How to prove compliance months after install
Months later someone will ask what you built. That answer should be a lookup: issued revision, labels, crate history, install scan — not a file-server archaeology project. Spectr keeps that digital footprint on each product.
Key facts
- “We built Panel A-237 to Revision C dated March 15” should take minutes.
- GD jobs make documentation the whole game.
- Photos help; they do not replace the issued record.
- Generic ERPs that stop at shipping leave you naked in a dispute.
How shops handle this
- Lock the issued revision on the product
No quiet shop-floor redraws. - Label to the mark
The wall and the record must agree. - Keep crate and ship history
Chain of custody. - Scan install
Done means hung to that record.
Common questions
Is this only for GD?
Field-measure jobs need it too. GD just makes the paper the contract.
How long do we keep it?
At least through the warranty conversation you know is coming.
