• Confirm full functionality of utilities and building systems prior to delivery.

3. Compliance & Documentation

• Ensure all legal, regulatory, and municipal approvals are in place prior to handover.

• Verify property readiness, ownership documentation, and payment clearance.

• Coordinate handover documentation, including keys, certificates, warranties, and manuals.

4. Delivery Approval (Go / No-Go Authority)

• Issue final delivery clearance only when all physical, legal, and contractual conditions are met.

• Maintain authority to delay or suspend handover where requirements are not satisfied.

• Prepare structured delivery readiness reports for each unit and project phase.

5. Client Handover & Experience

• Conduct formal handover walkthroughs with clients.

• Present property features, systems, and documentation professionally.

• Record and manage post-handover client snags in coordination with technical teams.

6. Post-Handover Quality Control

• Review and approve all defect rectification works post-handover.

• Track outstanding issues through to final resolution.

• Identify recurring defects and provide feedback for continuous improvement.

7. Reporting & Process Improvement

• Maintain real-time tracking of unit readiness, inspections, and quality status across projects.

• Provide weekly reporting on quality performance, risks, and delivery timelines.

• Continuously improve inspection procedures, checklists, and delivery processes.

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or related field.

• 7+ years of experience in construction quality control, project delivery, or developer-side QA/QC roles.

• Strong understanding of construction methodologies, materials, and finishing standards.

• Knowledge of real estate delivery processes and handover procedures.

• Ability to interpret technical drawings, specifications, and contractual documents.

• Strong reporting, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
