The GMP shall be delivered to the Owner within three (3) weeks of the Design Development review meeting or a date established by the Owner.

During the Construction Documents stage, Contractor and A/E shall jointly deliver a monthly written status report to Owner describing the progress on the incorporation of all qualifications, assumptions, clarifications, exclusions, value engineering issues and all other matters relevant to the establishment of the GMP into the Construction Documents. 7.12 Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment of the GMP if it is required to pay or bear the burden of any new federal, state, or local tax, or any rate increase of an existing tax, except taxes on income, adopted through statute, court decision, written ruling, or regulation taking effect after acceptance of the GMP Proposal. This equitable adjustment does not apply to tax increases borne solely by Subcontractors. 7.13 The parties may agree to convert the GMP to a lump sum contract amount at any time after Contractor has received bids or proposals from trade Contractors or Subcontractors for the performance of all major elements of the Project.
