Who this is for
- Site engineers and reliability teams with management-of-change items that cannot close until the as-builts are certified.
- Contractors and fabricators at handover, where the client will not release final payment without signed record drawings.
- Builders whose certifier needs record drawings for mechanical work alongside the design and inspection certificates.
- Asset owners inheriting plant with drawings that no longer match what is on the ground.
What you get
- As-built drawingsIn your title block, numbering and revision conventions, delivered in native CAD and PDF for your document control system.
- A deviation registerEvery difference from the issued-for-construction set, each assessed against the governing standard (AS 4100, AS 3990, AS 1657, AS 4041, AS 1210 or the site standard, as applicable).
- RPEQ certificationOf the record drawings, with a letter stating what was reviewed and any conditions.
- A 3D modelWhere it earns its keep, with the 2D sheets generated from it so they stay consistent.
Why it needs an engineer, not just a drafter
The redlines from a job almost always contain engineering decisions that were never formally reviewed: a moved support, a substituted section, a field-drilled hole. Each has to be checked before an engineer can sign, which is why an as-built signed only by the fabricator or a drafter is not accepted by certifiers or mine sites. How the sign-off works, and what to send.
How fast
Turnaround is set by the completeness of the pack, not by drafting speed. From a complete pack, drawings come back signed in days. From an incomplete one, you get a list of what is missing the same day, so nothing sits in a queue waiting for a question to be asked. Either way, you get a completion date on day one and it is held.
Backlogs
Sites accumulate closeout backlogs: a dozen changes from the last shutdown, each waiting on drawings. We take backlogs as a batch with a fixed schedule and a single point of contact, working through them in priority order so the highest-risk items close first. Ask for a batch quote rather than pricing each one.
What to send
- The issued-for-construction drawings at their final revision, native CAD if available.
- Every redline: fabricator, installer and supervisor mark-ups, even where they overlap.
- Photographs with a tape or scale in frame, especially of connections and supports.
- Survey or laser-scan data if the job had it.
- Material certificates, weld maps, NDT and inspection reports.
- The site's drawing requirements: title block, numbering and file formats.

Change happening on site right now? A phone call and a photo while the work is open is far cheaper than a retrospective assessment at handover. Call before the concrete is poured.
