The Architect will promptly reply to the Contractor in writing stating whether or not the Owner or the Architect, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any such proposed person or entity. Failure of the Owner or Architect to reply promptly shall constitute notice of no reasonable objection. The Owner shall have the right to reject any proposed Subcontractor when the Owner reasonably believes the Subcontractor is not qualified or responsible to perform the Work or if the Subcontractor is different from one listed on or with the Bid. 5.2.2 The Contractor shall not contract with a proposed person or entity to whom the Owner or Architect has made reasonable objection. The Contractor shall not be required to contract with anyone to whom the Contractor has made reasonable objection. 5.2.3 If the Owner or Architect has reasonable objection to a person or entity proposed by the Contractor, the Contractor shall propose another to whom the Owner or Architect has no reasonable objection. The Contract Sum shall be increased or decreased by the difference in cost occasioned by such change which is fully documented to the Owner's and Architect's reasonable satisfaction and an appropriate Change Order shall be issued. However, no increase in the Contract Sum shall be allowed for such change unless the Contractor has acted promptly and responsively in submitting names as required. The Owner shall not be responsible for any increased cost for any change involving a person or entity who or which was not in all respects qualified, competent and sufficiently experienced to perform proposed Work. 5.2.4 The Contractor shall not change a Subcontractor, person or entity previously selected if the Owner or Architect makes reasonable objection to such change. The Owner may require the Contractor to change any Subcontractor previously approved for reasonable cause. Actions by the Owner or Architect pursuant to this subparagraph shall not be deemed to make either responsible for the performance or future performance of a Subcontractor. mcg-ARC 2120.000 February 28, 2023
