 The Deficiency Checklist (also known as a Punchlist)

liste des problèmes constatés
Explanation:
"The typical construction contract agreement calls for the contractor, when he believes it to be so, to declare the construction project to have reached "substantial completion" and request a "pre-final" inspection. The architect then observes the project as a whole in a "walk around" inspection and creates a punch list of uncompleted or unsatisfactory work items owed to the project as defined by the contract agreement (which also incorporates the design documents). Final contractor payment is made when the punch list of items are completed to meet the project design required by the contract, or some other mutually agreed resolution for each item is reached. Examples of punch list items include damaged building components (e.g. repair broken window, replace stained wallboard, repair cracked paving, etc.), or problems with the final installation of building materials or equipment (e.g. reinstall peeling carpet, replace missing roof shingles, fire and pressure test boiler, obtain elevator use permit, activate security system, etc.)."

neutral  Germaine: le béton qui arrive en retard, un électricien saoul, sont des "problèmes"; des nids d'abeilles dans une dalle de béton, l'absence de mises à la terre sont des déficiences ou, comme le mentionne le texte ci-dessus, un "ouvrage insatisfaisant ou incomplet"
