What is an ITP in construction?

An Inspection and Test Plan (ITP) is a quality assurance document used in construction to define inspection activities, hold points, and witness points at key stages of work. It specifies what needs to be checked, by whom, and records the results for audit and compliance purposes.

How much does HoldPoint QA cost?

HoldPoint QA charges $45 AUD per active project per month. There are no per-seat fees or per-document charges. Projects start as draft (free) until the first document is added.

Can external clients sign ITPs without an account?

Yes. HoldPoint QA sends a secure sign-off link via email. External signatories (clients, principal's representatives, or engineers), can review the full ITP checklist and sign digitally without needing an account or app.

Does HoldPoint generate ITP PDFs automatically?

Yes. When an ITP is approved, HoldPoint automatically generates a branded PDF containing all checklist results, inspection notes, photos, and signatures. PDFs are regenerated if any information changes.

Do I need an ITP for gas installation work in Australia?

If your contract, principal contractor, or client QA manual calls for an Inspection and Test Plan, you need one, whether or not your scope is "construction" in the everyday sense. On commercial and government projects, gas installation work is typically assessed against AS/NZS 5601 (Gas installations and AS 3814) Industrial gas appliances, and the ITP is how you show each requirement was actually verified.

What hold points should a Gas Installation ITP include?

At minimum: pressure test before gas introduction, regulator verification and final commissioning leak check. Hold points belong wherever a defect would be concealed by following work or expensive to put right, so work stops until the nominated party signs. Your specification or the principal's QA plan may add more.

Which standards apply to gas installation inspections?

The references most gas installation ITPs cite are AS/NZS 5601 (Gas installations and AS 3814) Industrial gas appliances. Always check the project specification as well, it frequently calls up extra requirements, or a specific edition, on top of the standard.

Can I use an AI-generated gas installation ITP on a real project?

Yes, as a starting point. Generate the gas installation ITP for your scope, then review it against your contract and specification, especially the hold points, like pressure test before gas introduction. Run it through HoldPoint for digital sign-offs, photos, and branded PDFs, and have your QA manager or superintendent approve the final version before it goes to site.

Background

What is a Gas Installation ITP?

A gas installation ITP documents the inspection and testing steps for mechanical and building-services work, from rough-in and installation through commissioning, pressure tests, and handover sign-off.

On a gas installation job the plan turns on a handful of mandatory stops: pressure test before gas introduction, regulator verification and final commissioning leak check. Each of those is a hold point: work doesn't move past it until the nominated party has inspected and signed. Witness points like pipe support and penetrations, appliance and flue checks, and ventilation adequacy tell the superintendent or client when to attend, without holding up the crew if they can't make it.

An Australian gas installation ITP is normally written against AS/NZS 5601 (Gas installations and AS 3814) Industrial gas appliances. Naming the standard you're inspecting to, rather than a generic "inspect and approve" line, is what makes the record hold up in an audit, a defect claim, or a payment dispute.

Gas Installation ITP Hold Points & Witness Points

The AI generator automatically includes these checkpoints based on your scope description. Hold points require mandatory sign-off before work proceeds; witness points notify the relevant party but don't stop work.

Audit-grade evidence

GPS & weather captured at every gas installation sign-off.

Generating a gas installation ITP gets you a checklist. Defending it years later in a defect claim is a different problem. HoldPoint records the inspector's GPS coordinates and the live weather (temperature, humidity, wind, and sky condition), at the moment they sign each hold point. The data prints on the final PDF under the signature.

Temperature on record

Pour temp, ambient, and curing window, automatically logged.

Humidity & wind

Critical for paint, coating, and curing claims under AS standards.

Lat / lng + map link

Proof the inspector was actually on site, not signing from the office.

Available on every paid HoldPoint plan. The free generator gives you the ITP: HoldPoint gives you the defensible record.
