    DAILY SITE REPORTS – ADVICE AND GUIDANCE

    This document provides advice and guidance for creating your own daily site reports and
    should be referred to alongside the ‘Daily Site Reports’ template in the Templates section of
    your Member’s Area.

    When a claim situation arises, it is essential that we have records to first investigate the matter,
    i.e. what happened and when it happened and second, to be able to provide evidence in
    support of the claim. Daily Site Reports will often provide a very useful source of information
    and substantiation, provided that:

    They are completed contemporaneously;

    They contain sufficient information;

    They are accurate;

    The information contained is understandable.

    We have seen many situations where responsibility for completing daily site reports has been
    given to someone with little understanding of the report’s purpose and function. This type of
    situation is not good practice. For example, a timekeeper may be able to complete a list of
    resources on site and even material deliveries but is unlikely be able to record activities that
    are in progress or on hold, or instructions that have been received or are required.

    It is therefore recommended that responsibility for compiling these reports lies with someone
    who has a complete overview of the project. We would also recommend that the project
    manager reviews each report before it is finalised and issued.

    The Daily Site Reports should be issued to the party who is administering the project on behalf
    of the Employer so that they become contemporaneous records which may be relied upon
    should it become necessary to substantiate a claim.
    The Daily Site Report template is included here for you. Obviously, the content, details and
    size of the report will be dependent on the size and complexity of the project, but this contains
    sufficient basic information to form the basis of good reporting. The template also includes an
    example of a completed report for reference.
