Builder and truss supplier coordination: A practical checklist — RiverTruss educational resource

Why this matters

The builder and supplier need a shared, current source of truth for dimensions, bearing, openings, revisions, delivery, and field questions. A checklist is useful when it records decisions and evidence, not when it becomes a box-ticking exercise.

Parallel revisions create a package that looks complete but cannot be confidently installed.

A practical framework

  1. name the current drawing set
  2. define revision and approval workflow
  3. coordinate schedule and delivery constraints
  4. route field questions to the appropriate professional

Questions to answer

  • What must be true before this decision is safe to advance?
  • Which fact should be verified by a document, site observation, or qualified professional?
  • Who owns the next action, and when will the record be updated?

Common failure modes

  • Starting with a preferred answer and collecting only confirming facts.
  • Leaving the owner of a task or the date of the next review unstated.
  • Treating a preliminary screen as a final approval.
