Proposed result
a separately stated preparation allowance.
A decision to resolve
unverified substrate condition.

This is a planning example. It does not describe a completed client engagement.

Acceptance checklist for this project

  • Trace each quantity to a drawing, room and finish code. Reconcile measured area with order quantities and stated waste.
  • Write the expected content and format of a separately stated preparation allowance against one agreed sample.
  • Include a failing example involving unverified substrate condition, and agree the correct response.

Questions to answer together

  • What is the expected result for one agreed example?
  • Which edge cases must pass before signoff?
  • Who accepts the result, and where is that decision recorded?

What to have at the end

A repeatable acceptance pack with examples, expected outcomes and signoff criteria.

Record the decision on unverified substrate condition alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
