Systems & file handoffs · Australian flooring takeoffsPorcelain tile takeoffs: systems & file handoffs
Plan how information enters and leaves the work. Start with plans and porcelain tile specifications and plan a finish-coded quantity breakdown.
For Australian projects, delivered remotely. Quantities depend on the issued documents and agreed measurement scope.
The project in view
- Start with
- plans and porcelain tile specifications.
- Proposed result
- a finish-coded quantity breakdown.
- A decision to resolve
- large-format cuts and nominated layouts.
This is a planning example. It does not describe a completed client engagement.
Systems & file handoffs for this project
- Confirm the source format for plans and porcelain tile specifications and the required delivery format for a finish-coded quantity breakdown.
- Carry a stable reference through each handoff so a reviewer can trace large-format cuts and nominated layouts.
- Begin with a reviewed file exchange if a live integration is unnecessary. Confirm system access before promising an integration.
Questions to answer together
- Which file formats or systems must exchange information?
- Who owns access, exports and destination records?
- How will a failed handoff or superseded file be identified?
What to have at the end
A handoff specification covering formats, permissions, ownership and failure handling.
Record the decision on large-format cuts and nominated layouts alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
