OPR software for running pre-reception inspections
Load your OPR checklist, capture each reserve on site, and generate the signed OPR report from your data. The OPR becomes a structured process, not a visit reconstructed that evening.
OPR software is the tool architects use to run the opérations préalables à la réception: inspecting the site trade by trade, logging each reserve, and producing the OPR report. Builddar is the construction quality operating system for architects managing OPR, execution, and reception. The OPR runs as a workflow: your checklist on mobile, each reserve captured on site with location, trade, deadline, and photo, then the OPR report generated from that data and carried into the reception PV.
The paper OPR, retyped that evening
The paper or spreadsheet OPR is where disputes start: notes taken on site, retyped that evening, photos that do not match the line items, reserves with no clear owner. Between the visit and the report, information is lost or distorted.
The OPR is the last quality gate before the reception PV is signed and the 10 years of decennial liability begin. A poorly kept OPR means a PV that discovers problems instead of confirming them, and an evidence chain full of holes the day a claim is filed.
The OPR should follow your methodology, trade by trade, and produce its report with no retyping at all.
How Builddar runs the OPR
- 01
Load your OPR checklist before you arrive
Load your firm’s OPR checklist: phases, zone types, trades, inspection points. The template is set up once, in about 20 minutes, then applies to every operation. No zone or trade is skipped.
- 02
Walk the site trade by trade, in a fixed order
Inspect each zone in the same order: facades, common areas, technical rooms, then each unit. A fixed order means nothing is missed and the report reads consistently.
- 03
Capture each reserve on the spot
The moment you see a defect, log it on the mobile app with location, trade, photo, and deadline. Capture takes about 30 seconds, works offline, and removes the retyping step.
- 04
Generate and sign the OPR report on site
At the end of the visit, generate the OPR report from the captured data. It lists each reserve by trade and location, with deadlines, in your firm’s template. Architect and developer sign it as the official record.
- 05
Track close-out through to the PV
After the OPR, each reserve runs to its deadline, with automatic reminders and escalation. Once closed, reserves feed the reception PV: reception confirms work already verified.
What you get
An OPR that follows your methodology
Your checklist, your phases, your trades, on mobile. The inspection follows your process and no zone is skipped.
The OPR report generated, not retyped
The OPR report is compiled from the reserves captured on the spot, in your template, without retyping a single line that evening.
Each reserve with its four facts
Location, trade, defect with photo, deadline: without these four facts a reserve is disputable. With them, it holds for 10 years.
Close-out tracked automatically
Email and SMS reminders to close-out, with escalation. You no longer manage delays by hand between the OPR and reception.
An OPR that prepares reception
The OPR reserves feed the PV: reception becomes a confirmation, not a last-minute discovery.
