Construction doesn’t end at Practical Completion

Touchpoint gives New Wave Synergy’s post-completion team one place to run the work that usually gets split across inboxes, site notes and spreadsheets: inspections, defects, purchaser updates, key handover and readiness.

It is practical support first, technology second, built for the people carrying a project from construction into settlement, occupation and operations.

Designed for live handover work: site inspections, defect close-out, purchaser communication and asset information that teams can actually use.

01Who we help

One platform Five stakeholders

Touchpoint is built for every party involved in the post-completion journey, from Practical Completion through to occupation, operations and long-term asset performance.

01

Developers

Protect settlements, improve purchaser confidence and reduce post-completion risk with a structured handover and customer-care operating layer.

02

Builders

Coordinate defects, inspections, key handover and close-out obligations without losing accountability across emails and spreadsheets.

03

Asset owners

Receive complete documentation, clear governance and operationally ready assets instead of a late-stage information dump.

04

Facilities managers

Access manuals, warranties, compliance records and asset information through a searchable, field-ready source of truth.

05

Purchasers and end users

Move into a new home, workplace or asset with clearer communication, fewer surprises and a more supported handover experience.

02The problem

Practical Completion is not the end of the project

The most sensitive phase often begins after construction is technically complete: purchaser communications, inspections, defects, key handover, document transfer and operational readiness. When those pieces are managed in different places, the work becomes reactive, expensive and hard to govern.

Purchasers are left chasing answers

After Practical Completion, updates, inspection outcomes, defect status and handover information often sit across email chains, spreadsheets and individual inboxes. The customer experience depends on who remembers what.

Defects become a governance problem

Unresolved items, unclear ownership and fragmented reporting create unnecessary friction between developers, builders, purchasers and facilities teams exactly when confidence should be increasing.

Handover information arrives too late

Manuals, warranties, certificates, as-builts and asset registers are often delivered as a document dump, not as usable information that operations teams can trust from day one.

03The solution

Touchpoint keeps the handover phase under control

It combines New Wave Synergy’s hands-on post-completion delivery support with a shared system for inspections, defects, handover tasks, documents and operational readiness.

The work still happens with people on site and in the project team. Touchpoint makes that work visible, easier to coordinate and easier to hand across when the building moves into occupation.

“The project changes hands
The intelligence should not”

Touchpoint, in one line

People-led close-out support

New Wave Synergy supports the practical work after completion: site walks, purchaser inspections, defect follow-up, handover planning and readiness checks.

Clear communication between parties

Developers, builders, purchasers, asset owners and facilities teams can work from the same view instead of chasing status across meetings, inboxes and spreadsheets.

Governance built into the process

Every inspection, update, handover item and asset record can be tracked with ownership, timing, evidence and reporting context.

04How it works

From completion to occupancy, without losing the thread

Touchpoint follows the handover work as it actually happens: planning, site activity, purchaser updates, key handover, asset records and the move into operations.

Practical CompletionOccupancyOperations
01

Prepare

Agree the handover plan, communication rhythm, inspection approach and readiness checks before the pressure builds.

02

Coordinate

Keep purchaser questions, inspection bookings, defects and stakeholder actions moving through one working record.

03

Transition

Manage key handover, outstanding items, documents and final readiness steps as the building moves into occupancy.

04

Operate

Give asset owners and facilities teams the records, warranties and asset information they need from day one.

05

Improve

Use the close-out record to see where delays, defects and information gaps are recurring across projects.

06Workflows

What happens on site, captured properly

Touchpoint supports the practical work that happens after Practical Completion: inspections, defects, purchaser updates, key handover and operational readiness. The work stays human; the record becomes clearer.

On site

Physical inspection

Site walks, purchaser inspections and valuation inspections are captured as proper project records, not scattered notes and follow-up emails.

  1. 1Walk the asset or lot on site
  2. 2Capture findings, photos and status
  3. 3Assign ownership and next action
  4. 4Report progress without rebuilding the record

Used by · NWS, developers, builders, purchasers

Close-out

Defect close-out

Outstanding defects are easier to govern when each item has evidence, responsibility, timing and a clear path to closure.

  1. 1Log item with location and evidence
  2. 2Assign to the right party
  3. 3Track updates and completion status
  4. 4Retain a clear audit trail

Used by · Builders, developers, project teams

Purchasers

Purchaser communication

Purchasers and end users receive clearer information during the period when uncertainty can quickly become frustration.

  1. 1Prepare communication plan
  2. 2Coordinate updates and responses
  3. 3Track inspection and handover status
  4. 4Reduce repeated questions and confusion

Used by · Developers, customer care teams, purchasers

Handover

Key handover

Keys, documents, access requirements and final readiness steps are coordinated as a managed transition, not a last-minute scramble.

  1. 1Confirm handover readiness
  2. 2Coordinate keys and documents
  3. 3Record handover completion
  4. 4Escalate anything still outstanding

Used by · Developers, owners, purchasers, FM teams

Readiness

Operational readiness

Facilities teams inherit a clearer picture of the asset before operations begin, with documentation and readiness evidence in one place.

  1. 1Review readiness requirements
  2. 2Confirm asset information is available
  3. 3Prepare transition and FM packs
  4. 4Report readiness gaps early

Used by · Asset owners, FM teams, operators

  • Lower handover risk
  • Stronger operational readiness
  • Better stakeholder communication
  • Clearer post-completion governance
08Impact

Less friction after completion More confidence at handover

The outcome is not another dashboard. It is a cleaner transition from construction into occupation, with fewer gaps for people to chase manually.

01

Fewer handover delays

Project teams can see which inspections, defects, documents and handover actions still need attention before they become settlement or occupation issues.

02

Calmer purchaser communication

Purchasers receive clearer updates and next steps during the stage where silence, uncertainty and repeated follow-ups usually create frustration.

03

Defects that stay visible

Outstanding items keep an owner, evidence trail and status, so they are not buried in site notes, inboxes or spreadsheet versions.

04

A cleaner move into occupation

Keys, inspections, documents, access requirements and readiness checks are coordinated as a managed transition rather than a last-minute rush.

05

Asset information people can use

QR and NFC access help connect physical assets to the right manuals, warranties, certificates and records when people are actually in the field.

06

Evidence for decisions and reporting

Structured records give developers, owners and facilities teams a clearer basis for reporting, escalation and post-completion governance.
