4LEAF Plan Review QA /QC Process for all Reviews
Task 1— Project Tracking Set -up
The first step of our process will be to set up the project in our system to enable 4LEAF and the City of Gilroy to
track the progress of the review. Our plan tracking procedures are designed to track each submittal throughout
the review process and maintain accurate and comprehensive records for each submittal.
Task 2 - Complete Submittal Review
Upon receiving the plans from the City, 4LEAF will triage (preliminary plan review performed by 4LEAF plan review
project lead) the submittal to verify that the submittal received is complete (i.e., all pertinent plans, calculations,
reports, and other related documents) in order that we can begin our review. If the submitted package is
incomplete, we will communicate with the City to discuss the deficient documents needed to proceed with our
review.
Task 3 - Plan Review Assignment
After the triage process is performed and a complete package is verified, the project will be assigned to the most
qualified Plans Examiner and a turnaround time will be established. We will log each application into our database
the same day the plans are received to assure that they are routed in a timely manner and to allow for daily project
tracking.
Task 4 - Plan Review
4LEAF will provide the project contact (Developer, Contractor, Architect, or Engineer) desired by City of Gilroy
with a list of any items needing correction and clarification to comply with applicable building codes, ordinances,
and regulations. A correction list will be created based on the missing codes and ordinances.
Task 5 - Quality Control
Prior to submitting the plan review correction list to the City, the designated plan review project lead will review
the correction list for adherence to applicable codes and ordinances as well as for accuracy and completeness.
After completion of our quality control review a correction list will be e- mailed to a designated staff member at
the City of Gilroy or as directed by the City of Gilroy. The correction list and a 4LEAF transmittal form will include
the following information: a description of the work, type of construction, occupancy group, square footage,
number of floors, and sprinkler requirements.
Task 6 - Plan Review Reche
Plans received for rechecks will be reviewed for conformance. Our goal is to actively work with the designers to
resolve all unresolved issues after our second review. If it appears that there are complicated issues that might
cause a project to go beyond our second review, we will communicate directly with the designer to resolve these
concerns.
Task 7 - Project Approval
Once the final plan reviews are completed and ready for approval, 4LEAF will organize the plans and supporting
documents per the City of Gilroy processing requirements and return them to the City, along with our letter of
completion.

upon a phone call to the 4LEAF office or a simply e -mail for "pick -up" to pickup @41eafinc.com. Pick -ups are at no
additional cost.
Document Control and Electronic Plan Review
When plans and documents are received for review, 4LEAF's Plan Review
Manager and Document Control Technician analyzes the project, creates a job
number, and completes a Job Setup Sheet. This form highlights both jurisdiction
and project specific design criteria and notes applicable contact information. Jobs
are transmitted through 4LEAF's easily accessed EZPIan Review portal which
tracks initial and subsequent reviews and is open for view by the customer. The
City and their customers can view 4LEAF's plan control log through EZPIan Review
Portal.
Plans then get distributed for review to a 4LEAF team consisting of a Plan Review Engineer or Architect (a licensed
state professional) and /or an [CC Certified Plans Examiner, as applicable. Our staff then performs his or her
function of analyzing the plans and documentation for effective conformance to the California Codes, referenced
