The situation

What has happened

Merriwa Homes has complained that the island drawer front on the Lot 22 Clyde North kitchen (JO-26-1060) is misaligned and a second drawer sticks. The kitchen was installed on 8 September by Crew 2 and a call-back is already booked for 15 September. The builder's site supervisor is frustrated because the handover is scheduled with the home buyer on 25 September. Bianca Sorrentino wants the complaint logged and investigated as a quality record, with the cause established as manufacturing, installation or site movement, and a corrective action assigned. The handover photographs and the installation checklist are in the job order.

Your brief. Log the complaint correctly, gather the evidence from the job order and the crew, arrange the call-back with the builder, identify the most likely root cause and record a corrective action with an owner and due date so the same defect does not recur.

What to look for

Evidence guide

Look for a complaint record made on the day with accurate details, evidence gathered from records and people rather than guessed, a root cause conclusion that follows from the evidence, and a corrective action that addresses the cause rather than just the symptom. The reply to the builder must be courteous, factual and consistent with the warranty commitments.

The student's evidence summary lists every record they created or changed in the systems named above, their notes and the tasks they ticked. Verify it against the deliverables and your own assessment tool.
