the Owner for review, consideration and approval. The CMAR shall, prior to the issuance of a change order, determine the effect on the Master Schedule of time extensions requested by the Contractor. The Designer shall prepare the necessary change order documents for signing by the CMAR, Designer and Owner. The CMAR shall then prepare the necessary documents to effect a change to the contract with the Contractor. In its sole discretion the Owner may approve a change in the Guaranteed Maximum Price that corresponds with any approved construction contract change order. 3.10.10 Quality Review and Warranty The CMAR unconditionally warrants and guarantees all materials and workmanship against patent defects arising from faulty materials, faulty workmanship or negligence for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of substantial completion of the Work and shall replace such defective materials or workmanship without cost to the Owner. 3.10.10.1 In addition to the foregoing general warranty, the Contract Documents may require extended warranties for specified building components, including without limitation mechanical and electrical equipment, elevators and escalators, security equipment, roof, curtain wall, doors and waterproofing. Extended warranties shall be specified in the Contract Documents. All such extended warranties shall either be provided by the CMAR or by a Contractor or manufacturer as provided in the Contract Documents. Such warranties shall provide, at a minimum, for the repair or replacement of defective or non-conforming components within the warranty period. 3.10.10.2 The CMAR shall establish and implement a program to monitor the quality of construction. The purpose of the program shall be to guard the Owner against defects and deficiency in the work of the Contractors. The CMAR shall transmit to the Designer and the Contractor a notice of nonconforming work and may require that the Contractors correct Work at no expense to the Owner when it is the opinion of the CMAR that the Work does not conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents. Except for minor variations as stated herein, the CMAR is not authorized as part of this service to change, evoke, enlarge, relax, alter, or to release any requirement of the Contract Documents or to approve or accept any portion of the Work not performed in accordance with the Contract Documents. 3.10.11 Testing by the CMAR The CMAR shall recommend to the Owner additional tests and inspections that the CMAR believes should be conducted to monitor the quality of construction and compliance with the Contract Documents. Notice of all such tests and inspections shall be provided to the Owner and the Designer, and copies of the results and reports of all such tests and inspections shall be provided to the Owner and the Designer. 3.10.12 Operation and Maintenance Materials The CMAR shall obtain from the Contractors, review and assemble operation and maintenance manuals, warranties and guarantees for materials and equipment installed in the Project, in accordance with the Contract Documents and the Master Schedule. It is expected that all operation and maintenance manuals will be compiled and delivered to the Owner before the Project is substantially complete, and generally when the Work is eighty percent complete. 3.10.13 Substantial Completion Substantial completion is the point in time when the Work, as determined by the Designer, is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents that it can be utilized by the Owner for its intended use, and all necessary permits and permissions for beneficial occupancy and utilization having been obtained by the CMAR. All operations and maintenance manuals, Owner training, and as-built drawings must be submitted prior to Final Completion being achieved. The CMAR shall, prior to requesting a Certificate of Substantial Completion, prepare and submit to the Contractors lists identifying Work that does not conform to the Contract Documents. The CMAR shall not request a Certificate of Substantial Completion from the Designer until the CMAR believes that the Project is substantially complete and certifies to the Designer that all of the Work is substantially complete. The Designer shall then determine whether the Project is substantially complete. Upon Substantial Completion, the Designer shall prepare and submit to the CMAR a deficiency list identifying all portions of the Work which are known by the Designer at that time to be incomplete or defective. Within forty-five (45) days of receipt of this deficiency list, the CMAR shall complete and correct all items on that list along with all other Work required to achieve Final Completion of the Work. At any time prior to completion of the period of warranty, the Designer may submit to the CMAR a supplemental deficiency list, in which case the CMAR shall complete or correct any and all new items identified on the Supplemental deficiency list. 13
