* Review material documentation, Certificates of Compliance, Safety Data Sheets, inspection tags, and supporting technical records.
* Identify defective or nonconforming work and maintain appropriate inspection documentation.
* Participate in determining practical resolutions for identified nonconformance where required.
* Recognize potential construction conflicts and advise supervisors on possible corrective solutions.
* Maintain daily site diaries describing completed work, observations, resources, and relevant construction events.
* Prepare daily inspection reports and other documentation required under the project contract.
* Maintain organized project files and supporting inspection records.
* Perform quantity calculations and maintain records of installed and completed works.
* Verify installed quantities used to support contractor payment applications.
* Review quantities associated with variations, change orders, and additional works within the assigned inspection scope.
* Assist with review of progress payment estimates and extra work documentation.
* Maintain accurate as-built plans and verify that construction changes are properly recorded.
* Coordinate surveying and materials testing activities performed by specialist subconsultants.
* Support development and implementation of project quality control procedures.
* Contribute inspection information to quality reports and construction records.
* Assist with development of job safety practices and site safety reporting.
* Recognize hazardous working conditions and initiate appropriate escalation or corrective action.
* Maintain awareness of public safety while inspecting active construction areas.
* Conduct labor compliance interviews where required by the project.
* Provide technical guidance to junior inspectors when assigned.
* Respond to project site call-backs in emergency situations when required.
* Coordinate effectively with engineers, contractors, testing teams, surveyors, and other construction personnel.
