hi
I'm translating a CV of Housekeeper. There is a line about the nature and duty of work which goes like this:
Coordinated with Projects for the snagging of the presidential suite
How to translate snagging in this context ?
Thanks

English term (edited):
snagging
mise en place de réserves
Now that we have better context, confirming my original hunch, I think the key word you need here is 'réserves'. After that, you will need to find a formulation in FR that fits appropriately with the format of your CV, depending on whether you are using active verbs or nouns throughout, etc. For example, 'émission de réserves' etc., possibly with something like 'inspection pour...' etc.
As I said, there are several entreis already in the KudoZ archives for this, I have posted just 2 of them below which seem the most relevant.

I am assuming that the quite separate term 'presidential suite' isn't really giving you any problems here.

Thanks, W/A! Yup, as so often... and also, as so often, we didn't have all the context; luckily, I had a hunch...

Discussion
look at this sentence:
• Conducting detailed snag reports, room checklists for fabric and upholstery approval.
From the slim context given, it's a little difficult to quite know if that could apply here or not, since we don't know if perhaps some building or renovation work has been done on the P.S., creating a need for it to be isnepcted, including by a senior member of housekeeping staff, who might catch something other trades might have overlooked.
