opgeleverd

Opleverd, or opgeleverd in the past participle form, is a Dutch term used to indicate that something has been delivered, handed over, or completed and made available to the recipient. The word is widely used in construction, real estate, and project management, but can apply to products, services, or reports that have reached a formal completion and transfer moment.

The verb opleveren is built from the prefix op- and leveren (to deliver, to supply). The sense of opgeleverd is that a result has been brought to a defined endpoint and is now in the possession or control of the client, owner, or end user. In practice, oplevering often involves a formal inspection, acceptance criteria, and documentation to confirm that requirements are met.

Common contexts include the construction and housing sector, where a building or infrastructure project is handed over to the opdrachtgever (client). The moment of handover is called de oplevering, and it is typically accompanied by een opleveringsrapport or opleveringschecklist, listing any defects or remaining works to be completed. After oplevering, there may be a defect liability period during which the contractor must remedy issues identified during the handover.

In broader use, opgeleverd can describe any completed deliverable, such as a project, product, report, or service that has been finalized and transferred. The term often contrasts with terms for delivery or production that stop at completion without formal handover.
