Non-Conformance Procedure
From time to time during the contract, you may be issued with a Non-Conformance (or you may issue a Non-
Conformance to others). A non conformance is defined as any event that does not comply with:-
a specified construction procedure,
with the Building Code or Resource Management Act.
Health and Safety Issues

Non-conformances may be identified:-

by Insurers representatives during milestone audits
by Clients, Consultants or Project Manager during observation or inspection of project work
by Subcontractors or suppliers
by any visitor to the site

The purpose of the procedures to report non conformances is to ensure that work which is found not to conform
to quality requirements is not incorporated into a finished product or service without being rectified, to identify
the corrective action needed to fix the defect, and MOST PARTICULARLY to define any preventative action
necessary to avoid similar incidents in the future.

Corrective Action
Substantial non conformances shall be recorded on a Corrective
Action Form. Each part of the Corrective Action Form shall be signed
off by the relevant person and shall be filed as part of the quality
records of the project. An example of a Corrective Action Form is
included overleaf.

Defects
Defects will be generated from a range of activities. All defects will be
recorded on defect lists which will be created for the project.

Producer Statements
Some trades will be required to issue a Producer Statement to confirm all works have been carried out in line
with the Contract Documents and Specifications. A producer statement (if required) must be issued on
completion of the works for the project.

For all trades, the submission of a signed QA check sheet for your works, confirms the works have been carried
out to comply with the relevant standards, the Building Code and the project drawings and specifications.
