Contractor Supplied Samples Sample Clauses
The "Contractor Supplied Samples" clause requires the contractor to provide samples of materials, products, or workmanship for review and approval before full-scale production or installation begins. Typically, the contractor submits these samples to the client or project manager, who evaluates them to ensure they meet specified standards and project requirements. This process helps prevent misunderstandings or disputes over quality by establishing clear expectations and benchmarks before the main work proceeds.
Contractor Supplied Samples. The Commissioner reserves the right to request from the Contractor a representative sample(s) of the Product offered at any time prior to or after award of a Contract. Unless otherwise instructed, samples shall be furnished within the time specified in the request. Untimely submission of a sample may constitute grounds for rejection of the Bid or cancellation of the Contract. Samples must be submitted free of charge and be accompanied by the Contractor’s name and address, any descriptive literature relating to the Product and a statement indicating how and where the sample is to be returned. Where applicable, samples must be properly labeled with the appropriate Solicitation or Contract reference. A sample may be held by the Commissioner during the entire term of the Contract and for a reasonable period thereafter for comparison with deliveries. At the conclusion of the holding period, the sample, where feasible, will be returned as instructed by the Contractor, at the Contractor’s expense and risk. Where the Contractor has failed to fully instruct the Commissioner as to the return of the sample (i.e., mode and place of return, etc.) or refuses to bear the cost of its return, the sample shall become the sole property of the receiving entity at the conclusion of the holding period.
