� DCP has been reviewed.
� Work has been inspected by the Design-Build Firm for compliance with the
Design Criteria.
� Work has been completed in accordance with the Design Criteria
� Equipment and systems have been tested in the presence of the Project
Manager and/or other City representatives and are operational.
� Work is completed and ready for Substantial Completion inspection.
The Project Manager shall schedule the date and time for any inspection and notify the
Design-Build Firm and any other parties deemed necessary. During this inspection, the
Project Substantial Completion Inspection Form will be completed as necessary. Any
remaining Construction Work shall be identified on this form and shall be known as
Punch List Work. The inadvertent omission of any item from the Punch List shall not
relieve the Design-Build Firm from its obligations as detailed in the DCP and the
Contract. The Punch List shall be signed by the Project Manager, and the Design-Build
Firm confirming that the Punch List contains the item(s) necessary to complete the
Work. The failure or refusal of the Design-Build Firm to sign the Project Substantial
Completion Inspection Form or Punch List shall not relieve the Design-Build Firm from
complying with the findings of the Project Substantial Completion Inspection and
completing the Project to the satisfaction of the City
Where the Punch List is limited to minor omissions and defects, the Project Manager
shall indicate that the Work is substantially complete subject to completion of the Punch
List. Where the Project Manager determines, on the appropriate form that the Work is
not substantially complete, the Project Manager shall provide a list of all open items
necessary to achieve Substantial Completion. Upon completion of such Work, the
Design-Build Firm shall request another Substantial Completion inspection.
The Project Manager and the Design-Build Firm shall agree on the time reasonably
required to complete all remaining Work included in the Punch List.
The City will prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion in the form which shall
establish the Date of Substantial Completion. Once substantial completion is achieved
the City shall be responsible for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the
Project site, and insurance; and shall list all Work yet to be completed to satisfy the
requirements of the Contract Documents for Final Completion. The failure to include any
items of corrective Work on such list does not alter the responsibility of Design-Build
Firm to complete all of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Warranties
required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of Final Acceptance
completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the
Contract Documents.
61. Acceptance and Final Payment
Upon receipt of written notice from Design-Build Firm that the Work is ready for final
inspection and acceptance, Project Manager and/or Consultant shall, within ten (10)
calendar days, make an inspection thereof. If Project Manager and/or Consultant find
the Work acceptable, the requisite documents have been submitted and the
requirements of the Contract Documents fully satisfied, and all conditions of the permits
and regulatory agencies have been met, a Final Certificate for Payment shall be issued
by Project Manager, stating that the requirements of the Contract Documents have been
performed and the Work is ready for acceptance under the terms and conditions thereof.
