GSA Form 2480: List of Defects and Omissions

GSA Form 2480, List of Defects and Omissions, is a General Services Administration form. Its footer reads GSA 2480 (REV. 3/2015), and GSA hosts it in its forms library. GSA's page lists PBS P 3480.2A as its authority or regulation.

The one-page list identifies the building location by city and state, the project title, the contract number or task order number, the inspection date, the type of inspection (Progress, Partial Final or Final), the discipline or trade, the name of the contractor and the name of the inspector. A table below has rows for each defect or omission: an item number, a description that includes the specification or drawing reference, the date corrected, who verified the correction, and GSA's acceptance by name or initials. A Page of box at the top numbers the sheets. The form prints no instructions, no OMB number and no privacy statement.
