The architect issues punch-list items assigned to three trades. What is the best control for the GC?
Correct Answer
D) Track each punch item through assignment, completion, and verification
Punch-list control requires assignment, completion, and verification.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Punch-list control requires assignment, completion, and verification.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: Send the entire list to the owner and stop tracking because the architect created it
Send the entire list to the owner and stop tracking because the architect created it belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the punch-list verification event.
Option B: Close every item when the first trade says its work is finished
Close every item when the first trade says its work is finished belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the punch-list verification event.
Option C: Move the list to warranty records without field verification
Move the list to warranty records without field verification belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the punch-list verification event.
