Common use of Schedule Limitation Clause in Contracts

Schedule Limitation. Contractor acknowledges and accepts that it will be obligated to provide and timely complete all Work, and achieve the date of Substantial Completion and date of Final Completion for the Project. If no date of Final Completion is set forth in the Construction Schedule or any update to it, or if no such date is established by the Architect/Engineer in the Certificate of Substantial Completion, the date of Final Completion shall be deemed to be thirty (30) days after the scheduled date of Substantial Completion. Contractor shall use its best efforts to re-sequence the Work when necessary or appropriate to overcome and/or mitigate, to the greatest practicable extent, the effect of any delays. In accordance with Article 13.07, any additional costs incurred by Contractor due to delays, including additional costs of Contractor to overcome any delays, shall not be grounds for an increase in the Contract Sum, regardless of whether such delays were caused or contributed to, in whole or in part, by the Owner. Contractor shall diligently prosecute the Work in accordance with the Construction Schedule and Project Schedule. Time is of the essence with respect to the intermediate milestone dates, the Substantial Completion date and the Final Completion date established in the Construction Schedule for the Work. In the performance of all of its duties hereunder, Contractor shall perform its Work in a manner consistent with such time limitations.
