READING NOTES
Assemble the inspection reference
Use the accepted specification, current drawings, sample record and packing requirements as one inspection pack. Confirm the item list and agreed sampling approach before the visit or remote review. A selection of attractive product photographs cannot establish that the ordered specification has been supplied.
Check the product itself
Verify the relevant material identification, overall dimensions, mesh openings and wire details. Examine the edges, flatness and finish against the acceptance criteria. Record where measurements were taken, and identify the inspected piece or package so the evidence can be traced later.

| Application | Define the actual application | Environment, function and installation |
| Specification | Confirm product and dimensions | Material, specification, quantity and tolerance |
| Delivery | Align packing and destination | Timing, packing, drawings or photos |
Reconcile quantities and accessories
Compare counted items with the order and packing list. For a fence system, include posts, caps, brackets and gate components rather than inspecting only the panels. Identify approved spares and partial shipments separately so discrepancies are visible before loading.
Review shipment readiness
Check labels, separators, edge protection and package condition. Record any nonconforming items and the agreed resolution before the shipment is released. Retain the inspection report with photographs showing item identities, giving the receiving team a practical reference when the goods arrive.
