–Review post-repair CCTV inspection footage and reports to confirm that repairs have achieved the required standard.

–Maintain a complete QA/QC records register — including ITP sign-offs, material delivery records, inspection reports, NCRs and post-repair CCTV verification records.

–Provide QA/QC input to monthly progress reports — summarising inspection activities, pass/fail rates, outstanding NCRs and recurring quality issues.

–Liaise with the Quantity Surveyor to ensure no uninspected works are accepted for payment.

–Support the technical team in identifying recurring repair failures or quality patterns that may require methodology revision.

–Ensure all quality records are properly filed in the project document management system.
