Decision & Verification Infrastructure (D&VI)

Clear decisions. Verifiable records. Fewer disputes.

Decision & Verification Infrastructure is a structured approach to documenting and verifying renovation decisions so they remain clear, traceable, and defensible over time. It reduces misunderstandings and disputes without interfering with execution.

Many renovation disputes are not caused by poor workmanship.
They happen because decisions were unclear, undocumented, or remembered differently over time.

During a renovation, dozens of decisions are made — layouts, materials, scope changes, exclusions, assumptions. Months later, when people change or questions arise, those decisions are often difficult to trace.

Decision & Verification Infrastructure exists to prevent this problem by ensuring key decisions remain clear, recorded, and verifiable throughout the project lifecycle.

WHAT D&VI IS?

Decision & Verification Infrastructure (D&VI) is a neutral documentation and verification layer used during renovation projects.

It focuses on recording and verifying decisions, approvals, and scope boundaries — so they do not rely on memory later.

D&VI is not enforcement, supervision, or dispute resolution.
It does not control execution or judge responsibility.

WHAT D&VI INCLUDES

Key project decision records (what was decided, when, and by whom)
Scope inclusions, exclusions, and assumptions
Material and finish approval records
Change documentation (when decisions evolve)
A consolidated execution reference pack
Structured handover documentation for future reference

WHAT D&VI DOES NOT DO

Does not supervise site works
Does not instruct contractors
Does not enforce compliance
Does not determine fault or responsibility
Does not act as a dispute resolver or arbitrator

Who is D&VI suitable for?

D&VI is suitable for projects where:

Multiple decisions are made over time
Scope clarity is important
Future reference matters
Misunderstandings would be costly

Typical use cases

Commercial office renovations
Clinics and healthcare fit-outs
Retail and multi-outlet projects
Industrial and light-industrial fit-outs
High-value, professionally managed renovations

What if only one party uses D&VI?

D&VI can operate even if only one party engages the service.

In such cases, documentation is limited to decisions and information provided within the agreed scope.
Participation by one party does not require participation by others.

Non-participation does not imply fault, risk, or non-compliance.

HOW D&VI FITS WITH OUR RENOVATION SERVICES

D&VI is used as part of our project delivery approach.

While renovation execution focuses on building the space, D&VI focuses on ensuring decisions made along the way remain clear and traceable.

This reduces misunderstandings during construction and provides useful documentation long after handover.

BENEFITS

Clear record of what was approved
Reduced misunderstandings during construction
Easier handover and future changes
Less reliance on memory
Fewer scope-related disputes

How to engage Decision & Verification Infrastructure

D&VI is typically activated after a renovation contract is firmed.

It is scoped based on project scale, complexity, and documentation needs.
