You do not inspect your own work. You inspect for somebody else.

And that changes what you need. Your report is not an internal record: it is the product you deliver, and the only thing your client sees all month. With PAIR the minutes are raised in the field, come out under the letterhead of the right client, and carry the server’s time.

What happens to an inspection firm every month

The minutes are raised in the field and delivered two days later, because they have to be written up under the letterhead of whichever client it is.
Every client wants their own format, and keeping five Word templates alive is a job nobody has been assigned.
When somebody disputes last year’s observation, the defence rests on an undated photo and the memory of whoever went.

Five things that change in the first month

01

The minutes come out the same day, under the right letterhead

Who does it today
The inspector, before leaving the site.

What is left
The PDF branded for the right client, without going through the office.
02

The observation with owner, deadline and after photo

Who does it today
Whoever raises it, and whoever closes it.

What is left
The observation with its full cycle, which is what you deliver and what you bill.
03

That your signature holds up when disputed

Who does it today
The professional who signs the minutes.

What is left
The approval with the server’s time, and the photographs inside the PDF itself.
04

The specialist reviews without flying north

Who does it today
The reviewer, from the office.

What is left
The complete record with its photos and its location, reviewable without travelling.
05

One project per contract, and the client outside your account

Who does it today
The firm’s administrator.

What is left
Every contract with its scope, its forms and its people. The data is yours, not the client’s.

What you will be asked for, and where it comes from

An inspection firm answers for what it writes for years. The regulation that frames that is the same one that frames the works.

What the regulation requires	What evidence PAIR produces
Law 20.703 arts. 1 and 6 National register of technical works inspectors Creates the National Register of technical works inspectors and of structural design reviewers, kept by the housing ministry and public, and bars an inspector from reviewing works in which they have a conflict of interest.	One project per contract, with its own scope and its own forms, and the client outside your account.
LGUC art. 143, replaced by Law 20.703 What the works inspector must do Supervise that the works are executed in accordance with the permit and the approved designs, and record that supervision in the Works Book. An inspector who fails in that duty is subsidiarily liable with the builder for the resulting damage. A registered works inspector is only mandatory for buildings of public use and in the other cases the building code sets out. PAIR produces the evidence of supervision; the Works Book and the registration belong to the inspector.	Each visit’s supervision as a record with its author, its time and its photographs, exportable as the PDF that accompanies the Works Book entry.
LGUC art. 18 First-seller liability Ten years for the load-bearing structure, five for construction elements and installations, and three for finishes, from final acceptance.	The report with its server time and its photographs embedded in the PDF. It is what you show when somebody complains in year seven.
OGUC art. 1.2.7 Site logbook A folioed logbook in triplicate, identifying the project, the architect, the structural engineer, the builder and the inspector; every entry dated and signed. The site logbook is an official document. PAIR produces the evidence you write from, not the entry itself.	PAIR does not replace it. It backs every entry with photo, location and time, and generates the report the inspector issues anyway.
Law 21.719 · Law 19.628 arts. 3 and 14 quinquies Personal data protection Process personal data on a lawful basis, minimise it and answer for its security.	The personal data you capture on somebody else’s site is data you answer for. Names and national IDs masked by role, on export too.

The bodies named are the regulators. PAIR neither represents them nor carries their endorsement.

What you start with

If every client asks for their own format, that is exactly the problem this solves: all five get digitised and each set of minutes comes out under the right letterhead.
