−	The occupation and defects liability period (equivalent to RIBA stage L1: rectification period) follows practical completion. It is the stage after the client has taken possession of the development for occupation when any defects are rectified and the final certificate is issued signifying that the construction works have been fully completed. As the development is now occupied, and the construction manager no longer has possession of the site, close co-operation is required between the construction manager and the client so as so not to disturb occupants, whose activities will take priority over trade contractors rectifying defects. This may involve out of office hours working.

−	~~The tasks described below are based on the route taken by a project following a~~ construction management ~~procurement route where a construction manager~~ is ~~appointed early in~~ the ~~project as a consultant, and then takes on a management role for~~ the ~~construction~~ of the ~~project. The procurement route~~ is ~~unusual in~~ that the works ~~are carried out by trade contractors~~, ~~contracted to~~ the ~~client but managed by~~ the construction manager.	+	[[File:Project plan construction management.jpg]]The occupation and defects liability period is the stage after the client has taken possession of the development for occupation when any defects are rectified and the final certificate is issued signifying that the construction works have been fully completed.
