Superintendence The Contractor shall maintain on site, at all times during the construction activities, a dedicated competent Superintendent. This person shall be acceptable to the County and shall have a cell phone at which he or she can be reached at all times. In addition to a General Superintendent and other administrative and supervisory personnel required for the performance of the Work, the Contractor shall provide specific coordinating personnel as reasonably required for interfacing of all the Work required for the total project, all satisfactory to County Project Manager. The superintendent shall not be changed except with consent of County Project Manager, unless the superintendent proves to be unsatisfactory to the Contractor and ceases to be in his employ, in which case he shall be replaced within twenty-four (24) hours by a superintendent acceptable to County Project Manager. The superintendent shall represent the Contractor in his absence and all directions given to him shall be binding as if given to the Contractor. Whenever, in the sole discretion of the County, the Contractor is not providing a sufficient level of supervision, the County may direct the Contractor to increase the level of supervision for any or all projects, including but not limited to the right to direct the Contractor to assign a full time, dedicated Superintendent for any project; submit daily management, inspection, activity, and planning reports; substitute Subcontractors; submit daily photographs of the work in place and the work areas prepared for the next day’s work; and develop a site specific quality control program, all at no cost to the County. In the event the County’s personnel are required to provide direction or supervision of the work in the field because the Contractor has not provided sufficient supervision, the Contractor shall reimburse the County $150 per hour for such effort.
