## How to use it

1. Walk one area at a time with the people who will sign it off (owner, architect or your own QC). Split the list by floor or area so each page stays short.
2. Write the location so someone who wasn’t on the walk can find it: level, room or grid line, and which wall or ceiling.
3. Give each item one trade. If two trades share it, make two items; shared items are the ones that sit open.
4. Set a due date on every item and a priority only where it changes the order of work.
5. When the trade says it’s done, mark it Ready for review, not Closed. Close it only after someone has looked.
6. Re-walk with the list sorted by trade, then by location, and send each trade only their open items.
