Construction Observation. If requested by Client, Consultant shall visit the project during construction to become familiar with the progress and quality of the contractors’ work and to determine if the work is proceeding, in general, in accordance with plans, specifications or other contract documents prepared by Consultant for the Client. The Client has not retained the Consultant to make detailed inspections or to provide exhaustive or continuous project review and observation services. Consultant neither guarantees the performance of any Contractor retained by Client nor assumes responsibility for any Contractor’s failure to furnish and perform the work in accordance with the construction documents. Client acknowledges Consultant will not direct, supervise or control the work of contractors or their subcontractors, nor shall Consultant have authority over or responsibility for the contractors’ means, methods, or procedures of construction. Consultant’s services do not include review or evaluation of the Client’s, contractor’s or subcontractor’s safety measures, or job site safety. Job Site Safety shall be the sole responsibility of the contractor who is performing the work. For Client-observed projects, the Consultant shall be entitled to rely upon and accept representations of the Client’s observer. If the Client desires more extensive project observation or full-time project representation, the Client shall request such services be provided by the Consultant as an Additional Service. Consultant and Client shall then enter into a Supplemental Agreement detailing the terms and conditions of the requested project observation.
