What should a hold point include?

Last reviewed July 5, 2026

A hold point should include the specific work stage that needs inspection, the criteria for passing, and who's responsible for the sign-off. It should also detail any required documentation and the timeline for the inspection process.

Key points

  • Define the work stage clearly.
  • Set pass/fail criteria.
  • Identify responsible parties.
  • Include required documentation.

Hold points are critical checks before moving on to the next phase of work. They help catch issues early and maintain quality. Make sure everyone knows what's expected before you get to that stage. Clear communication is key.
