How do I verify contractor walkthroughs in a large facility?

To verify contractor walkthroughs in a large facility, require the walkthrough to follow a defined route with required checkpoints, timestamps, and evidence. The contractor should not simply submit a general summary after the visit.

Large facilities create verification challenges because contractors may cover many rooms, floors, roofs, mechanical areas, or electrical spaces. Without route-level detail, managers cannot tell whether the contractor physically visited each required area.

A practical approach is to require proof at key locations. For example, if a contractor is inspecting HVAC access areas, each zone should have a timestamped status, photo if abnormal, and note for any inaccessible equipment. If a location is skipped, the reason should be documented immediately.

FacilityOps AI can help by turning contractor walkthroughs into structured inspection records. Facility managers can review coverage, exceptions, and follow-up without relying on emails or verbal updates.
