the Work is being performed and report whenever it appears that material
furnished or Work performed by the Contractor fails to fulfill the requirements of
the specifications, this Contract or the Job Order. The Inspector may direct the
attention of the Contractor to any failure or infringement but this inspection will not
Page 8 of 68
2018-136-COS
relieve the Contractor from any obligation to furnish acceptable materials or to
provide completed construction that complies with the Contract or the Job Order
in every way. The Inspector is for the purpose of assisting the City’s
Representative and should not be confused with an Inspector with a City regulatory
agency or with an inspector from a laboratory under Article 1.8.

material furnished or the manner of performing the Work, the Inspector will have
the authority to reject materials or suspend the Work until the question and issue

revoke, alter, enlarge, relax, or release any requirements of the specifications.
Inspectors will in no case act as foremen or perform other duties for the Contractor
or interfere with the management of the Work by the Contractor.
C.
Inspection or supervision by the City’s Representative or Designee will not be
considered as direct control of the individual workman and his work. The direct
control will be solely the responsibility of the Contractor.
D.
The furnishing of these services for the City will not make the City responsible for
or give the City control over construction means, methods, techniques, sequenced
procedures or for safety precautions or programs or responsibility for the
Contractor’s failure to perform the Work in compliance with the Contract
Documents.

Order, all retesting will be performed by the same testing agency. The cost
associated with the noncompliance will be paid by the Contractor.

alterations, or failure to maintain the Work by persons other than the Contractor or
anyone for whose acts the Contractor may be liable.

manufacturers’ warranties upon Substantial Completion of each Job Order.
1.12. CORRECTION OF DEFECTIVE WORK

Page 14 of 68
2018-136-COS
above, within a period of 1 year from the date of Substantial Completion of the
Work or any portion of the Work, or within any longer period to the extent required
by the Contract Documents. All removal/replacement work, as directed by the City
to the Contractor, in compliance with this Contract, MAG standards and City codes
will have cost determinations by the City and be issued as a deduct or change
order to the Project. A Progress Payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of
the Project by the City will not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance
with the Contract Documents.
During the Work, the Contractor will take meaningful steps to begin correction of
any nonconforming Work as notified by the City. This includes the correction,
removal or replacement of the nonconforming Work and any damage caused to
other parts of the Work affected by the nonconforming Work. If the Contractor fails

Contractor’s other obligations under the Contract Documents.
1.13. SUBCONTRACTOR AND MAJOR SUPPLIER SELECTIONS
A. Selection by qualifications only - The City may approve the selection of a
Subcontractor(s) or Supplier(s) based only on their qualifications when the
Contractor can demonstrate it is in the best interest of the Project.
1.
The Contractor will apply the Subcontractor selection plan approved by the
City in the evaluation of the qualifications of a Subcontractor(s) or
Supplier(s) and provide the City with its review and recommendation. The
selection plan will be the Contractor’s own selection plan approved by the
City or the City’s selection plan as provided in this Article 1.13(B).
2.
The Contractor will negotiate costs for services/supplies from the
Subcontractor(s)/Supplier(s) under the approved qualifications only
Page 15 of 68
2018-136-COS
method.
City Selection Plan:
3. The Contractor shall comply with the following City procedures in its
selection of Subcontractor(s) or Suppliers(s) based on qualifications only:
a.
The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) will contain the best
description of the services or material desired; and
b.
A statement that only unpriced statements of qualifications will be
considered; and
c.
State the requirements for the project, such as drawings and
descriptive literature; and
d.
State the criteria for evaluating the qualifications; and
e.
A closing date and time for receipt of a statement of qualifications
and the location where the statements should be delivered or
mailed; and
f.
A statement that discussions may be held; and
g.
A statement that only statements of qualifications determined to be
acceptable will be considered for award.
7.
The RFQ may be amended after the submission of the statements of
qualifications. Any amendment will be distributed only to bidders who
submitted statements of qualifications. Those bidders will be permitted to
submit new unpriced statements of qualifications or to amend statements
already submitted.
Statements of Qualifications will not be opened publicly, but will be opened
in the presence of the Contractor. The contents of unpriced statements of
qualifications will not be disclosed to unauthorized persons.
Statements of Qualifications will be evaluated solely in accordance with the
criteria stated in the RFQ and will be determined to be either acceptable
for further consideration or unacceptable. A determination that the
statement is unacceptable will be in writing, state the basis of the
determination and be retained by the Contractor. The Contractor will notify
the bidder of the determination and the bidder will not be given an
opportunity to amend its statement of qualifications further.
The Contractor may conduct discussions with any bidder who submits an
acceptable or potentially acceptable statement of qualifications. During
discussions, the Contractor will not disclose any information derived from
any other bidder’s statement of qualifications.
The Contractor will negotiate costs for services/supplies from the
Page 16 of 68
2018-136-COS
Subcontractor(s)/Supplier(s) selected under this method.
B.
Selection by qualifications and competitive bid - The Contractor will apply the
City’s Subcontractor selection plan stated above in the Contractor’s evaluation of
the qualifications of Subcontractor(s)/Supplier(s) and will provide the City with the
selected process to prequalify prospective Subcontractors/Suppliers. Selection
may not be based on price alone. All Work by major Subcontractors and major
Suppliers will then be competitively bid to the prequalified Subcontractors unless
a Subcontractor or Supplier was selected in accordance with Article 1.13(B) above.
The Contractor may elect to comply with the following procedures in step 2 of its
competitive bid process.
1.
The Contractor will develop Subcontractor and Supplier interest, submit the
names of a minimum of 3 qualified Subcontractors or Suppliers for each
trade in the Project and solicit bids for the various Work categories. If there
are not 3 qualified Subcontractors/Suppliers available for a specific trade
or there are extenuating circumstances, the Contractor may request
approval by the City to submit less than 3 names. Without first giving
written notice to the City, no change in the recommended
Subcontractors/Suppliers will be allowed.
2.
If the City objects to any nominated Subcontractor/Supplier or to any self-
performed Work for good reason, the Contractor will nominate a substitute
Subcontractor/Supplier that is acceptable to the City.
3.
The Contractor will distribute Drawings and Specifications, and when
appropriate, conduct a prebid conference with prospective Subcontractors
and Suppliers. The Contractor will then review the price bids submitted by
Subcontractors and Suppliers and make its selection based on the
responsive and responsible bidder with the lowest price.
4.
If the Contractor desires to self-perform certain portions of the Work, it must
request to be one of the approved Subcontractor bidders for those specific
bid packages. The Contractor’s bid will be evaluated in accordance with
the process identified in the Invitation for Bids. If events warrant and the
City concurs that in order to insure compliance with the Project Schedule
or cost, the Contractor may self-perform Work without bidding or re-bidding
the Work. (For horizontal construction, as defined in A.R.S. § 34-101(15),
the Contractor must self perform not less than 45% (or such greater
percentage as may be specified in the RFQ) of the Work as required by
A.R.S. § 34-603(0(3).)
C.
If after receipt of sub-bids or after award of Subcontractors and Suppliers, the City
objects to any nominated Subcontractor/Supplier or to any self-performed Work
for good reason, the Contractor will nominate a substitute Subcontractor or
Supplier, preferably if this option is still available, from those who submitted
Subcontractor bids for the Work affected. Once the substitute Subcontractors and
Suppliers are consented to by the City, the Contractor’s proposed price for the
Work or portion of the Work will be correspondingly adjusted to reflect any higher
or lower costs from any substitution. Under no circumstances will the City’s
objection or comment on any Subcontractor or Supplier relieve the Contractor of
Page 17 of 68
2018-136-COS
its sole responsibility for control over the methods, means and processes by which
the Work is accomplished. The City must approve in writing the selected
Subcontractor Selection Plan before work commences on any Job Order.

ARTICLE 5 - CHANGES TO THE CONTRACT PRICE AND TIME

A.
Delays may be compensable, concurrent, excusable or non-excusable as defined
in Article 12.
B.
If the Contractor is delayed in the performance of the Work due to acts, omissions.
Page 25 of 68
2018-136-COS
conditions, events, or circumstances beyond its control and due to no fault of its
own or those for whom the Contractor is responsible, the Contract Times for
performance may be reasonably extended by Job Order Adjustment.
C.
The Contractor will request an increase in the Job Order Time by written notice
including an estimate of the probable effect of delay on progress of the Work. In
the case of a continuing delay only one request is necessary.
D.
Written notice will be received within 5 days of the commencement of the cause of
the delay.
1. If written notice is received more than 5 days after commencement of the
cause of the delay, the period of delay will be considered to commence 14
days before the giving of any notice.
E.
By way of example and subject to the Force Majeure provisions of Article 11.8,
events that may entitle the JOC to an extension of the Contract Time include acts
or omissions of the City or anyone under the City’s control (including separate
contractors). Acts of God or public enemy changes in the Work, Differing Site
Conditions, Hazardous Conditions, unusual delay in transportation, and excessive
inclement weather conditions not reasonably anticipated, war or other national
emergency making performance temporarily impossible or illegal, or strikes or
labor disputes not brought about by any act or omission of the JOC.
F.
If adverse weather conditions are the basis for a request for additional Job Order
Time, the requests will be documented by data substantiating that weather
conditions were abnormal for the period of time and could not have been
reasonably anticipated, and that weather conditions had an adverse effect on the
scheduled construction.
G.
It is understood, however, that permitting the Contractor to proceed to complete
any Work, or any part of the Work, after the date to which the time of completion
may have been extended, will in no way act as a waiver on the part of the City of
any of its legal rights.
H.
In the event that the Contractor sustains damages as a result of expenses incurred
by a delay for which the City is responsible, the Contractor and the City will
negotiate to determine the amount of any damages. This provision is made in
accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes Section 34-607 (E) and is effective only
if the delay caused by the City is unreasonable under the circumstances and was
not within the contemplation of the parties. This provision will not be construed to
void any provision of this Contract pertaining to notice of delays, arbitration or other
settlement provisions applicable to disputes, or provisions relating to liquidated
damages.
I.
In addition to the Contractor’s right to a time extension for those events stated in
this Article 5.1, the Contractor may also be entitled to an appropriate adjustment
of the Contract Price provided, however, that the Contract Price will not be adjusted
for those events stated in this Article that are beyond the control of both the
Contractor and the City, including the events of war, acts of terrorism, floods, labor
disputes (but not including the Contractor’s own work force and those of its
Page 26 of 68
2018-136-COS
subcontractors), earthquakes, epidemics, excessive inclement weather conditions
not reasonably anticipated.
5.2
DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS
5.2.1. If the Contractor encounters a Differing Site Condition(s), the Contractor may be
entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Time(s) to the extent
the Contractor’s cost or time of performance are the direct result of a Differing
Site Condition(s).
5.2.2. Upon encountering a Differing Site Condition, the Contractor will provide prompt
written notice to the City of the condition, which notice will not be later than 7
days after the condition has been encountered. Final costs must be submitted
within thirty (30) days after notice is received by the City, unless extended by
written agreement of the parties. The Contractor must give the City’s Contract
Administrator written notice of and an opportunity to observe, such condition
before disturbing or altering the Differing Site conditions. The failure of the
Contractor to give written notice and make the Claim as required by this Article
and Article 7.1.5 shall constitute a waiver by the Contractor of any rights arising
out of or relating to such Differing Site Conditions. (Final costs must be submitted
within thirty (30) days after notice is received by the City, unless extended by
written agreement of the parties.)
5.2.3. In order for the JOC to obtain any additional compensation or time extensions
for Differing Site Conditions, the JOC must demonstrate that it encountered a
material difference at the Site, as defined in Article 13, that required it to expend
additional cost or time. The JOC will also establish that it actually and reasonably
relied upon the representations found in the Contract Documents concerning the
Site conditions.
5.3
APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

omissions, without receiving any clarifications, it does so at its own risk. Adjustments
involving these circumstances made by the Contractor before clarification by the
Design Professional will be at the Contractor’s risk.
5.5
CITY REQUESTED CHANGE IN WORK
A.
The City reserves the right to make, at any time during the progress of the Work,
any alterations as may be found necessary or desirable.
B.
These alterations and changes will not invalidate this Contract nor release the

had been a part of the original Contract Documents. The Contractor will notify the
surety of the changes and will assure that the alternations and changes are
adequately covered by the surety bond.
C.
The City will request a proposal for a change in Work from the Contractor, and an
adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Times will be made based on a mutual
agreed upon cost and time.

B.
All changes in Work authorized by Job Order Adjustments will be performed under
the conditions of the Contract Documents. The decision to make an Adjustment
in the Contract rests solely with the City and any decision to make a Contract
Adjustment must be promptly complied with by the Contractor, subject to the
provisions of Article 5.8.
C.
The execution of a Job Order Adjustment by the Contractor shall constitute
conclusive evidence of the Contractor’s agreement to the ordered changes in work,
this Contract as thus amended, the Contract Price, and the time for performance
by the Contractor. The Contractor, by executing the Job Order Adjustment, waives
and forever releases any claim against the City for any additional time or
compensation for matters relating to, arising out of, or resulting from the work
included within or affected by the executed Job Order Adjustment of which the
Contractor knew or should have known.
5.8 UNILATERAL DETERMINATION OF CHANGE ORDER VALUE
If no mutual agreement occurs between the City and the Contractor, the change in
Contract Price, if any, shall be derived by determining the reasonable actual costs incurred
or savings achieved, resulting from revisions to the Work. Such reasonable actual costs
or savings shall include a component for direct job site overhead and profit, but shall not
include home-office overhead or other indirect costs and components. The calculation of
actual costs shall conform to the markup schedule in Article 5.12 below. Any such costs
or savings shall be documented in the format and with such content and detail as the City
requires. The Contractor shall promptly submit such documentation and other backup as
the City may require in evaluating the actual costs incurred.
5.9 ADDITIONAL CHANGE ORDER COST REQUIREMENTS
Contractor’s or Subcontractor’s submittals shall include the cost of materials, sales tax,
and the cost of all transport. The cost of items listed shall be directly related to the Job
Order Adjustment. Indirect costs not specifically related to the Job Order Adjustment shall
not be considered. Contractor’s or Subcontractor’s Direct Labor Costs shall be limited to
the hourly rate of directly involved workmen, employer contributions toward Contractor

Page 30 of 68
2018-136-COS

Unit prices stated in the Contract or as subsequently agreed to between
the parties;
2.
A mutually agreed upon accepted, lump sum, properly itemized and

Costs, fees and any other markups.
B.
If an increase or decrease cannot be agreed to as stated in Article 5.8(A) (1)
through Article 5.8(A) (3) the cost of the change of the Work will be determined by
the reasonable expense and savings in the performance of the Work resulting from
the change, including a reasonable overhead and profit, as may be stated in the
Contract. The Contractor will maintain a documented, itemized accounting
evidencing the expenses and savings associated with these changes.
C.
If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or are later agreed to by the
parties, but application of the unit prices will cause substantial inequity to the City
or the Contractor because of differences in the character or quantity of the unit
items as originally contemplated, the unit prices will be equitably adjusted.
D.
If the City and the Contractor disagree upon whether the Contractor is entitled to
be paid for any services required by the City, the amount to be paid, other
disagreements over the Scope of Work, proposed changes to the Work, the time
required to complete the Work, the City and the Contractor will resolve the
disagreements in accordance with Article 7.
1.
As part of the negotiation process, the Contractor will furnish the City with
a good faith estimate of the costs to perform the disputed services, or the
additional time required in accordance with the City's interpretations.
2.
If the parties are unable to agree and the City expects the Contractor to
perform the services in accordance with the City's interpretations, the
Contractor will proceed to perform the disputed services, conditioned upon
the City issuing a written order to the Contractor:
(a)
directing the Contractor to proceed; and
(b)
specifying the City's interpretation of the services that are to be
performed.
E.
Emergencies. In any emergency affecting the safety of persons or property, the
Contractor will act, at its discretion, to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss.
Any change in the Job Order Price or Job Order Time(s) resulting from emergency
work under this Article 5.8(F) will be determined as provided in this Article 5.
