An Inspection Test Plan (ITP) is a document that outlines the steps and procedures for the inspection and testing of a particular product or project. It is a comprehensive plan that includes all the necessary details about the testing and inspection process, such as the type of tests to be conducted, the equipment to be used, the criteria for acceptance or rejection of the product, and the frequency of testing.
An ITP is typically developed by a quality control team or a project manager to ensure that the product or project meets the required standards and specifications. The plan helps to identify any potential issues or defects in the product or project, and it provides a framework for corrective actions to be taken if any problems are identified.
ITPs are commonly used in a variety of industries, including construction, manufacturing, and engineering. They are essential for ensuring that products and projects meet the required quality standards and specifications and that they are safe for use.
As a Project Manager in the Construction Industry: Efficiently create and manage inspection test plans for different projects.
As a Quality Control Professional: Accurately record inspection data on-site and store it securely for easy access and analysis.
As a Site Supervisor: Facilitate seamless communication and collaboration with team members and stakeholders during inspections.
As a Construction Manager: Receive real-time updates on inspection progress and results for informed decision-making.
As a Safety Officer: Automate comprehensive inspection reports, saving time and ensuring accuracy.
Getting Started:
Below are key steps to help you get started with the ITP module and forms.
The ITP module is co-dependant on several templates including:
Template Name

This is the main document used to build your ITP template across all projects. It includes pre-defined fields that auto-fill details from the project, such as Project Code, Area/Lot, Site Address, Client Name, and Phone Number.
ITP Activities detail information such as Item Number, Activity, Document Reference, Acceptance Criteria, Action Point, Responsible Party, Record/Evidence, and Equipment Description. These fields are required for application defaults to function, but additional fields can be added.
Fields to be Retained:

The ITP application aids as a source of defaults for Tasks and Activities that commonly are required for ITP process documentation.
Tasks:
Tasks are used to Group related activities

Activities:
Define the details of the activity and evidence required to demonstrate completion. These set the defaults on the ITP form when created on a project.

After the configuration of your templates and ITP module is completed, you can proceed to create ITP’s from a project.
1. Creating a new ITP from a Project
Create the form.
Populate required form fields.
Select ITP Tasks.
ITP Activities will auto-select from your pre-defined ITP module configuration. Add or remove activities as needed.
Click “Commit Listed Activities.”
ITP Tasks and Activity Selection
Selected ITP activities will auto-populate the ITP Activity subforms into the ITP form.

2. Creating ITC’s from the ITP
If ITC’s are being used, you can navigate to the activity subform that you just created from the ITP. There is a button “Manage ITC’s” that will help you select the ITC template and the Quantity if ITC to generate.

Activity- Click to select
Click “Manage ITC’s”
Click “Manage ITC’s”
Select the ITC Template, Quantity and click “create” to generate the ITC’s on the project
Once created, you will see the ITC’s as a draft linked to the project View the draft ITCs linked to the project, with % completion visible in the pop-up window and on the form.
