DocuSign Envelope ID: 04E136D1 -507C- 4219- BF16- 446F8D2192F8 27.1. The CMAR will be responsible for developing and implementing a RFI form for use on the Project. The CMAR will be responsible for logging and reviewing all RFI's prior to submission to the Owner and the Project Designer. The CMAR is to insure that the RFI's submitted are appropriate and not frivolous. The CMAR shall be responsible for tracking and monitoring all RFFs throughout construction in a timely manner until they are processed by the Project Designer and the Owner. The CMAR shall include RFI's as an agenda topic at all Owner meetings and advise the Owner immediately of any delays in their process. All responses to the RFI's that have an added cost impact must also be discussed with the Owner immediately upon such determination. The CMAR shall develop an RFI aging report that is to be submitted to the Owner at each progress meeting. 28. SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION 28.1. The date of substantial completion of the Work or designated portion thereof is the date certified by the Project Designer when the Work or a designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete, in accordance with the Construction Documents, so the Owner can fully occupy and utilize the Work or designated portion thereof for the use for which it is intended, with all of the Project's parts and systems operable as required by the Contract Documents. Only incidental corrective Work and any final cleaning beyond that needed for the Owner's full use may remain for final completion. The issuance of a temporary or final certificate of occupancy shall not, in itself, constitute substantial completion. 28.2. When the CMAR considers that the Work, or a designated portion thereof which is acceptable to the Owner, is substantially complete as defined above, the CMAR shall prepare for and submit to the Project Designer and Owner a list of all items which in the CMAR'S opinion are to be completed or corrected and shall attach it to a request in writing that the Project Designer perform a substantial completion inspection. The Owner's occupancy of incomplete Work shall not alter the CMAR's responsibilities. The Project Designer shall review the CMAR'S list and shall compile a punch list of items to be corrected and completed. The failure to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of the CMAR to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. 28.3. When the Owner, Project Designer and CMAR, on the basis of an inspection, jointly determine that the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Project Designer will then prepare a certificate of substantial completion which shall establish the date of substantial completion, shall state the responsibilities of the Owner and the CMAR for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work, and insurance, and shall signify the beginning of the time within which the CMAR shall complete the items listed therein. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of substantial completion of the Work or designated portion thereof, unless otherwise provided in the certificate of substantial completion. 28.4. The certificate of substantial completion shall be submitted to the Owner and the CMAR for their written acceptance of the responsibilities assigned to them in such certificate. Upon substantial completion of the Work or designated portion thereof and upon application by the CMAR and certification by the Project Designer, the Owner shall make payment, except retainage held pursuant to the Contract Documents, for such Work or portion thereof as provided in the Contract Documents. 28.5. The acceptance of substantial completion payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the CMAR and its Subcontractors, except those previously made in writing and identified by the CMAR as unsettled at the time the CMAR submits the application for payment for substantial completion, and except for the retained sums due at final acceptance. 28.6. In addition to any and all other indemnification required by this Contract the CMAR shall indemnify and hold the Owner harmless against any claims by its Subcontractors that are waived Page 30 of 53 Revised 10/17
