What must pass before the next step: mandated step order in regulated processes
Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/prerequisite-sequencing-regulated-processes/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/prerequisite-sequencing-regulated-processes/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.
- Last verified: 2026-08-11

- Records: 37
The mandated order of steps in multi-step regulated processes, from the authority that enforces the order: which inspection or filing must be approved before the next one may happen, what may not proceed until it passes, and the deadline attached to it. One record is one step in one authority's published sequence. Covers municipal building inspection sequences (the rough-in must pass before the wall closes; no concrete before the footing inspection) and the US import Importer Security Filing chain (ISF no later than 24 hours before lading; flexible filings finalised no later than 24 hours before arrival; cargo release withheld without an ISF). Answers 'did I need an inspection before drywall', 'what order do building inspections happen in', 'when does the ISF have to be filed', and 'what happens if the ISF is late'. The sequence is usually published only as prose on the enforcing authority's own page, one jurisdiction at a time; no comparison table exists anywhere.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
Licence position
Facts extracted from the freely published pages of the authorities that enforce each sequence — municipal building departments and US Customs and Border Protection — with a short attributed quote and a link back. Inspection order and filing deadlines are public regulatory facts. No source page used carries a restrictive notice; US federal documents are public domain.
Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
