French construction document visa: definition and tracking
The French visa of execution documents is the design team’s review of whether contractor-produced studies follow the project design. The visa does not replace the contractor’s responsibility for its studies and construction methods.
The visa workflow in practice
The contractor submits a drawing, calculation, or technical sheet with an identifiable revision. The design team reviews it, adds comments, and assigns a status under the agreed contractual process.
A correction request should produce a new revision without deleting the prior submission. History connects the date, author, comments, and decision to each edition.
Statuses must be understood by all participants. They distinguish a received document, one under review, one accepted within the applicable process, and one requiring revision.
Approval tracking in Builddar
Builddar document management retains revisions and document approval stages. Drawings and records remain organized by project and zone.
Document comments can be recovered alongside the field context, observations, and deliverables that refer to the same works.
