COMPLIANCE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Bring backflow test deadlines into a clear daily review.

Review the device register, calculate timing from the recorded test history, and bring incomplete or time-sensitive cases to the right people. Keep regulatory decisions and external notices in the hands of authorized staff.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

The current backflow device register and recorded test dates

“Review each device’s last test, expected cycle, hazard details, and responsible contact. Surface incomplete records and organize the rest as potentially overdue, due soon, or current for a person to verify.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

6 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Organizes testing history and device details, highlights possible overdue or upcoming tests, routes incomplete records for attention, and records review outcomes.

  1. Review the device register

    Gather each device’s identifier, owner contact, last test date, hazard details, and other information required by your team.

  2. Calculate testing dates

    Organize days since the recorded test, possible overdue time, and the next expected date using the cycle your team has defined.

  3. Surface incomplete records

    Bring missing device or owner details to a data-quality reviewer rather than treating an incomplete record as compliant.

  4. Sort records for compliance review

    Group complete records by suggested overdue, due-soon, or current status for qualified staff to check.

  5. Prepare notices for authorized review

    Gather relevant dates and device details for a proposed reminder, report, or warning without sending or filing it automatically.

  6. Record the human decision

    Keep the verified status, reviewer, decision, and any approved follow-up together in the audit history.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A daily review summary with date calculations, proposed status, missing information, and an audit record. Any official report, shutoff warning, or external notice requires an authorized person to verify and approve it first.

The handoff

A daily review summary with date calculations, proposed status, missing information, and an audit record. Any official report, shutoff warning, or external notice requires an authorized person to verify and approve it first.

Keep in mind

A status suggestion is not a compliance determination. Confirm device records, applicable local rules, and required actions; keep official filings and shutoff decisions under authorized human review.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Confirm the applicable testing rules

Have compliance staff define the test cycles, hazard guidance, and jurisdiction-specific requirements used in review.

Prepare reliable device records

Check that device identifiers, owners, contacts, test dates, and other required details are maintained and corrected when needed.

Define notice and filing approvals

Name the authorized reviewers for reminders, state reporting, shutoff warnings, and other external actions; require approval before sending or filing.

Choose internal review and audit routes

Set where data issues and urgent cases go and how reviewers record the final decision and follow-up.
