Find out who signs before the last day

From the field
Ask at the start of the job who can accept the work. The site contact who makes the tea is often not the person whose signature counts.
If three sites are live and one charger bay isn't finished, raise a partial sign-off for the three. Waiting for one form for the whole job holds up everything.
If the customer won't sign, ask them to list what they don't accept on the form. A written list can be snagged and closed; a shrug can't.
An open snag with a photo and a date is an agreed item. The same snag with no photo becomes a dispute about what it looked like on the day.
Yes. Use the fields on this page however you like: print them, put them in a document or spreadsheet, or set them up in Integrio, where the customer signs on the engineer's phone and the form is stored with the project.
Generally, yes. The Law Commission concluded in 2019 that an electronic signature can be used to execute a document where the signer intends to authenticate it and any formalities for that document are met, and UK eIDAS says an electronic signature cannot be refused legal effect just because it is electronic. This is not legal advice.

Not necessarily. Under JCT main contracts, practical completion is certified by the contract administrator (SBC) or stated by the employer (DB). Your customer sign-off records their acceptance of your work, and sits alongside whatever your contract says about completion.

Usually, if everyone agrees what's outstanding. In Mears v Costplan the Court of Appeal held that trifling patent defects do not prevent practical completion, while defects that are more than trifling do. List each open snag on the form with an owner and date, and have the customer confirm they are minor.
