How to Read a Snagging Report: Critical, Major, Minor

A report is only useful if it drives action. Prioritization turns a long list of issues into a clear escalation sequence.

Critical findings

• Items with immediate safety, leakage, or major operational risk.
• Raise first and request urgent fix timeline.

Major findings

• Items affecting functionality, performance, or finish integrity.
• Track with firm closure dates and evidence after fixes.

Minor findings

• Lower-impact issues that still require completion.
• Bundle for efficient closeout once critical and major items are progressing.
