The project in view

Start with
floor plans and board specifications.
Proposed result
a room-based timber flooring schedule.
A decision to resolve
board direction and excluded fixed joinery.

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

Data quality checks for this project

  • Check floor plans and board specifications for completeness, conflicting versions and consistent references.
  • Add a separate validation rule for board direction and excluded fixed joinery.
  • Keep unresolved records separate from a room-based timber flooring schedule; record the reason rather than silently filling a gap.

Questions to answer together

  • Which fields, references or measurements must be present?
  • How are duplicates, contradictions and missing values reported?
  • Which corrections require confirmation from the source owner?

What to have at the end

A validation checklist with examples of valid, rejected and unresolved records.

Record the decision on board direction and excluded fixed joinery alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
