A list compiled by the architect or contract administrator at the inspection for practical completion of a building project. Items which need attention, but which are not sufficiently significant to delay practical completion, are put on a snagging list. The developer expects the building contractor to remedy the items on a snagging list promptly. However, most standard form building contracts do not refer to snagging lists.

An ongoing list, compiled by the architect or contract administrator or by the building contractor, which monitors the completion of snagging items as a building project approaches practical completion.
