Notices to comply
These records are documented proof that the contractors were informed that they were in violation of project rules, contract documents, or any documents that instruct them to perform the work in a specific manner. This proof may be admissible in court.

A door was installed incorrectly, so it swings in the wrong direction. You create a notice to comply that asks the contractor to remove the door and reinstall it correctly.

- Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*) but aren't enforced for draft records.
