The methodology
is the product.
Most consultancies sell hours and a spreadsheet. Group 4 runs every engagement on its own defect management system, a live cost-coded register with dashboards and reporting built from twenty years of close-outs. You don't have to take it on faith. You can see it.
One register, cost-coded
Every defect logged once: located, photographed, severity-rated, assigned, priced and cost-coded. Commercial exposure is a number on a dashboard, not a surprise at settlement.
Standardised inspections
Checklists and protocols standardised across stages and trades, so nothing depends on memory or goodwill, and nothing closes without reinspection.
Signature reporting
Close-out velocity, exposure by trade and cost code, readiness for PC: reporting clients can't get elsewhere, in a format a board can read in two minutes.
What the system changes on your project.
- No more competing lists. Client, contractor and trades all work from one register, so argument becomes evidence.
- Exposure quantified early. Cost-coding means you know what close-out will cost months before it can hurt you.
- Readiness is measurable. "Are we going to make PC?" gets a number, a trend line and a straight answer.
- The record survives. Every inspection, photo, price and sign-off is kept, a defensible file if anything is ever contested.
