THIS TEMPLATE IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT

This commercial template can be used "as is", but its big advantage is that it is designed to allow you to quickly and easily create of templates  for commercial and light industrial inspections.

From office buildings, warehouses, loading docks, restaurants, and retail, to numbered units like hotels, motels, and apartment buildings, having this powerful tool will vastly reduce the amount of time it takes to develop your own robust commercial templates.

HOW IS IT USED?

First, duplicate the original template. Next, working in the duplicate, use the “Edit Template” feature to delete whatever systems and components don't apply to whatever type of inspection he's creating. 

Some system sections are duplicated, but in one duplicate, for an inspection with numbered units (hotel, motel, apartments, etc.), narratives are written with a space for room numbers. Non-numbered sections can be deleted, reducing the template size. A defect that appears in multiple units can be documented in a single narrative.

System titles in which narratives have spaces for room numbers are identified with #  (example: Interior Elements #).

For an office building with a warehouse and loading docks, numbered sections can be deleted. To create a specialized template typically takes less than 20 minutes.

DOES IT FOLLOW A STANDARDS OF PRACTICE?

CCPIA Standards of Practice   COMSOP

This template content exceeds the requirements of the CCPIA SOPs. Inspection templates and inspection Standards serve different purposes. This template is organized in manner optimized for the inspection process, so it covers the standards but doesn't follow them.

*Note: The following states use regulatory language that affects the performance of a commercial inspection: Oklahoma, Nevada, Texas, North and South Carolina, and Vermont.

NARRATIVE LANGUAGE: COMMERCIAL VS RESIDENTIAL

Commercial clients are more sophisticated than residential clients and don't need to have the obvious explained to them. For example, they don't need to be told to hire a "qualified" contractor, and in some cases may have salaried staff qualified to handle problems.
