What you're being asked to action

✋

Hold Point approval

The contractor can't proceed past this point without your release. You review the linked records, then approve or reject — the workflow log keeps the full trail.

Witness Point notification

You're being notified of an activity you may elect to witness. Acknowledge in-app; attendance is at your discretion.

⚠

NCR sign-off

A non-conformance has been raised and remediated. You review the closure evidence and sign off the NCR against the Lot.

📄

Review and approve from anywhere

Approvals land in your queue with the evidence attached. Review on any device, approve or respond, and the contractor is notified instantly — with every action logged against the Lot.

Quick answers

Will I be charged?
No. Client and approver roles are free Associate seats. The contractor's account covers the platform.
Can I delegate approvals to my Inspector?
Yes — Inspector roles can be set up to verify checklists and manage approvals on your behalf. Ask the contractor's project admin to configure the delegation, or contact us for guidance.
Where do I find an approval I actioned last month?
The Approvals register keeps the full history — filter by date, Lot or status. Every action you've taken is logged and searchable.
How does this relate to my obligations under the contract?
CivilPro records the approval workflow — who requested, who released, and when. How that maps to your contractual obligations is defined by your contract, not by the software. If in doubt, review with your contract administrator.
Who do I contact if I'm stuck?
The contractor's project admin controls your access and can fix most issues. For app problems, raise a ticket via the Help Centre.
