<br />prior to installation of the manufactured articles, material and Equipment.
<br />8.7. DEFECTIVE WORK
<br />8.7.1. Correction of Defective Work
<br />When, and as often as the Owner’s Representative determines through his or her inspection procedures,
<br />material, Equipment or workmanship incorporated in the Project do not meet the requirements of the
<br />Contract, the Owner’s Representative will give written notice of the noncompliance to the Contractor.
<br />Within fourteen (14) days from the receipt of such notice, the Contractor shall undertake the Work
<br />necessary to correct the deficiencies, and to comply with the Contract. If the Contractor disagrees with
<br />the Owner’s Representative's determination and believes that the corrective Work should be covered by a
<br />Change Order, he or she shall immediately notify the Owner, in writing, setting forth its position. Within
<br />five (5) days after receipt of the Contractor's notification, the Owner will review the matter and notify the
<br />Contractor, in writing, of his or her determination.
<br />If the Owner determines that the corrective Work is required to comply with the Contract, the Contractor
<br />shall proceed with such Work. As a condition precedent to the Contractor's request for adjustment of
<br />Contract Sum, Contract Time, or both, resulting from the performance of such corrective Work, the
<br />Contractor shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Owner's determination, provide the Owner
<br />with Notice of a Contract Claim for an adjustment of Contract Sum, Contract Time, or both. Contract
<br />Claims not timely and completely submitted are deemed waived. The Contractor shall document the cost
<br />information associated with the corrective work with daily records in accordance with Force Account
<br />procedures and shall provide such information to the Owner’s Representative daily. Receipt of the cost
<br />data by the Owner’s Representative will not be construed to be an acceptance of the corrective Work, or
<br />an authorization for a Change Order to cover the corrective Work. Contractor waives any such Contract
<br />Claim by failing to maintain accurate and complete Force Account records.
