Common use of Rejection of Deliverables Clause in Contracts

Rejection of Deliverables. The Department reserves the right to reject deliverables, as outlined in the Scope of Work, as incomplete, inadequate, or unacceptable due, in whole or in part, to the Contractor’s lack of satisfactory performance under the terms of this Contract. Failure to fulfill the applicable technical requirements or complete all tasks or activities in accordance with the Scope of Work will result in rejection of the deliverable and the associated invoice. Payment for the rejected deliverable will not be issued unless the rejected deliverable is made acceptable to the Department in accordance with the Contract requirements. The Department, at its option, may allow additional time within which the Contractor may remedy the objections noted by the Department. The Contractor shall work diligently to correct all deficiencies in the deliverable that remain outstanding, within a reasonable timeframe. The Contractor’s efforts to correct the rejected deliverables will be at the Contractor’s sole expense. The Contractor’s failure to make adequate or acceptable deliverables after a reasonable opportunity to do so shall constitute an event of default.
