Project ID
Include project name, address, contract number, drawing/revision references, and client name so the certificate links to the exact scope and contract documents.
A structured ATC creates a single, auditable record of testing and acceptance that reduces disputes, clarifies responsibility for defects, and supports warranty enforcement. It standardizes what tests were run, tolerances used, and corrective actions required.
The Glass Panel ATC is completed by parties directly involved in glazing installation, testing, and project acceptance; signers vary by project delivery model.
Stakeholder clarity on who signs each section reduces processing delays and improves accountability throughout commissioning and closeout.
Include project name, address, contract number, drawing/revision references, and client name so the certificate links to the exact scope and contract documents.
Record panel type, mark/tag numbers, glazing configuration, dimensions, frame type, and location so each tested unit can be uniquely traced on-site and in shop records.
List the specific tests performed (air infiltration, water penetration, structural load, glass thickness, visual inspection), test standards, equipment, and acceptance criteria used.
Provide pass/fail per test, measured values versus tolerances, ambient conditions, and any deviations requiring corrective action or retest before final acceptance.
Document required remediation steps, responsible party, completion dates, and verification steps to close nonconformances prior to final sign-off.
Signature blocks for installer, inspector, and owner representative, with printed name, title, organization, date, and optional notarization or witness fields if required.

Choose a platform that supports fillable PDFs, clear audit trails, role-based routing, and secure storage to preserve evidentiary value.
Ensure the selected solution meets record retention and authentication requirements for your jurisdiction and industry before relying on electronic signatures.
Complete tests within the scheduled commissioning period prior to final inspection.
Allow a defined cure period for failed tests—often 7–30 days depending on scope.
Obtain signatures before release of final retainage or closeout payment.
Store signed ATCs in the project record within 7 days of completion.
Schedule retests promptly after corrective actions; delay may affect warranty coverage.
