PRESENT AT SITE: Kennith Cameron (CPB) Christian Sheffield & Don Bryson (CLA). The following. LIBRARY OF REPORT TEMPLATES We have hundreds of report templates and can customize reports to meet your needs. Each role of a construction team such as Design Professional or Contractor will have access to create reports that apply to their role. All completed reports are available in real-time on the iReport360 project dashboard for the entire construction team to view, print, or save as a PDF file. The following Libraries of Report Templates are available for each team role in iReport360. Architects visit job sites regularly, in order to take note of the status and progress of a construction project. Afterwards they send out their observations. There are often many people and companies involved in a construction project, so there is a constant risk of misunderstandings, mistakes and delays. Field reports (also called construction site reports, observation reports, progress reports, or construction activity reports) aim to reduce these, by documenting and distributing observations made during regular visits. While an email with observations could suffice, the industry standard is a Field Report. And by preference a well structured field report following a pattern. Why is it important to send professional and well structured field reports to the project team? Well, if you send out poorly structured reports or a bunch of emails, missing crucial information, with unclear pictures or without any clear overview, then there is plenty of scope for misunderstandings, or even worse – no one will read your field reports. If people (like contractors or construction companies) don’t read your reports or only half read them, they will for sure not act upon the remarks you point out in the report. At the very least, inadequately written reports generate extra questions, loads of emailing back and forth and frustration throughout the whole team. This is not what you want! Most of the time, projects fail because of bad communication. Structured, well organized and clear field reports are key to good communication and collaboration. Good communication and collaboration reduce risk and time spent on a project, increasing the project’s profitability. Although while building ArchiSnapper and working with lots of architects worldwide on how they manage field reports we have seen very different templates and approaches for making field reports, professional field reports are always made up of more or less the same components. This is of course not rocket science, but it is none the less useful for architects looking to improve the content and structure of their field reports, or just wondering what a typical architect would put in their field report. That’s why we want to share with you below the most common building blocks we have seen in field reports: Report number In order to be able to identify a report (now and later), a unique ID is required. Typically this report ID is a combination of the Project ID and sequence number for the report for that project, e.g. Project XYZ-5.
