First step
An electrical contractor runs the business side of offering electrical work. A single decision can involve four records: the agreed scope, the estimate assumptions, the evidence prepared for inspection, and the authority to release a private report. Begin by labeling who can confirm each item and which document actually supports it. Common misconception: a complete estimate or a named Master of record means the entire package is ready. Correct practice: review each record independently, retain unanswered questions, and ask the responsible party for dated evidence. If a recipient is confirmed later, update that release entry while preserving the separate inspection, scope, and price questions.
