Common use of Contractor to Establish Timing and Protocol with Inspector Clause in Contracts

Contractor to Establish Timing and Protocol with Inspector. Contractor shall establish a protocol for requesting inspection with Inspector so as to not delay the Work and provide adequate time for the Inspector to perform inspection. If such a protocol is not established ahead of time, Inspector may utilize the time criteria set by Title 24 of 48 hours in advance of submitting form DSA 156 for each new area. The DSA requirements under PR 13-01 specifically give the Special Inspector fourteen (14) days to post to the DSA website. Contractor is responsible for delays and for failure to plan. For some Projects, there may be a need to incrementally install certain assemblies. It is up to Contractor to identify areas and assemblies that may be constructed incrementally. Contractor must identify and establish incremental areas of construction and establish protocols with Inspector for DSA 152 approvals so they may be presented to DSA. See PR-13 item 1.17 for further discussion.
