INDEPENDENT DOCUMENTATION AUTHORITY
The IDA Condition Record
The IDA Condition Record is a structured, time-stamped account of a property's condition, captured with precision and preserved as a permanent reference.
Overview
The IDA Condition Record is a detailed documentation system designed to establish a clear, unbiased record of a property at a specific point in time.
It is not a summary or a checklist. It is a complete, structured record, built to reflect the property as it exists, without interpretation or assumption.

What it Includes
Each IDA Condition Record is produced through a consistent, methodical capture process. The record may include:
Every element is captured to create a complete, usable record, not just isolated images.
How It Is Built
Each record follows a defined process to ensure consistency and reliability.
Capture
The property is documented using structured visual and spatial capture methods, ensuring full coverage and continuity.
Organization
All captured data is sorted and labeled to reflect the property's layout and condition.
Compilation
Information is assembled into a standardized format, allowing for easy navigation and reference.
Delivery
A complete IDA Condition Record is issued as a clear, professional document.
Archive
The record is securely stored, preserving the documentation for future access and reference.
When It's Used
The IDA Condition Record can be applied at key points throughout a property's lifecycle.
What it Provides
The value of the IDA Condition Record isn't just in what is captured. It's in what it creates.
Clarity
Clarity gives you a complete, organized view of the property's condition.
Consistency
Consistency means a repeatable system applied across every project and timeline.
Alignment
Alignment creates a shared reference point for everyone involved.
Defensibility
Defensibility means a neutral, time-stamped record that stands on its own.
Continuity
Continuity provides a documented history you can reference long after the capture itself.
The Standard
The IDA Condition Record is designed to bring structure to something that is typically informal and inconsistent.
By applying a consistent methodology and maintaining independence, each record becomes more than documentation. It becomes a reliable point of reference, one that can be used, trusted, and returned to when it matters most.
