Tower close-out compliance
Scope captures the complete close-out package on the tower — offline, where there is no signal — puts it in front of the general contractor's project manager for review, and shows the asset owner's construction manager who is on site while they are still on it.
The problem
An asset owner has thousands of towers and a construction manager has dozens at once. By the time a close-out package is audited, the crew has been gone for a season and the record is whatever survived in somebody's camera roll.
Nobody can be at every site. Work that was never authorized gets discovered in an audit long after the fact, when the only remedy left is paperwork.
Close-out packages come back incomplete. One absent post-construction shot sends a crew back up a tower they already signed off, on the contractor's own cost.
The lease, the notice to proceed, the building permit, the drawings — approved somewhere in a thread. The person standing at the gate cannot prove any of it.
How it works
Scope follows the sequence the industry already runs on, and refuses to let it happen out of order.
Lease, NTP, building permit and construction drawings are uploaded once and submitted to the asset owner's construction manager. A certificate of insurance is tracked at company level and asked for once, not per site. No approval, no pre-construction walk.
The contractor requests it, the construction manager confirms a date or waives it, and the decision is written down. The 16 pre-construction photographs are captured on site against the owner's own checklist.
When a crew reaches the site, the asset owner sees who arrived, which contractor they work for, and whether they are cleared to be there — cleared, documents pending, awaiting the pre-construction walk, or not authorized at all.
All 27 post-construction photographs go to the contractor's project manager first. Anything flagged returns to the field unsubmitted and must be re-shot and re-verified. Only a complete package reaches the owner.
Capabilities
Towers have no signal. Photographs are taken and queued on the device with the real capture time preserved, then upload when the crew regains service. The record says when the work happened, not when the phone found a bar.
A quarter-mile geofence logs who arrived and when. A crew that leaves a site with photos still outstanding raises an alert to its own project manager — in time to turn the truck around.
Every arrival resolves to a status, not a name on a list. An unrecognized person on a tower is an alert the asset owner receives the same day, not a line in next quarter's audit.
Certificates of insurance are held against the company with expiry monitoring, so coverage lapses surface before a crew is already standing at a gate.
Field, office and the asset owner's construction manager in the same conversation, with the document or photograph being discussed attached to it.
Every approval, flag, submission and arrival is written once. Nobody can alter or delete an entry afterwards — not a contractor, not the asset owner, not Scope.
Who uses it
Works the checklist on the tower.
Runs the contractor's side.
Holds the approvals. Not a read-only seat.
Scope is independent. Scope Cop LLC is not a general contractor and does not perform tower work.
A contractor's compliance record is visible to that contractor and to the owner of the asset it was working on. It is never visible to another contractor. Presence at a shared site is scoped the same way: an asset owner sees every crew on their tower, and each contractor sees only its own.
