A fairly standard technique is to use a temp-name while
writing the file then rename the file when done (and the
client looking for the file is looking for the final name).
For example:
client-1: client-2:
pgm-to-make-file > tempname while [ ! -f finalname ] sleep 5
mv tempname finalname pgm-to-use-file < finalname
