Acceptance of the Work and Final Payment Sample Clauses

The 'Acceptance of the Work and Final Payment' clause defines the process by which the completed work is formally reviewed and approved by the client, triggering the contractor’s right to receive the final payment. Typically, this clause outlines the steps for inspection, the timeframe for the client to raise objections or identify defects, and the conditions under which the work is deemed accepted—such as the absence of timely objections. Its core function is to ensure both parties have a clear, agreed-upon process for concluding the project and settling final financial obligations, thereby reducing disputes over project completion and payment.

Related to Acceptance of the Work and Final Payment

  • ACCEPTANCE AND FINAL PAYMENT Upon written notice to the Owner

  • Acceptance of the Work 19.1 No act of, or failure to act by, the Owner or the OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE during the course of the Work, nor any extension of time for the completion of the Work, shall be regarded as an acceptance of such Work or any part thereof, or of materials used therein, either wholly or in part. Acceptance shall be evidenced only by the Final Payment by the Owner to Contractor. Before any final certificate shall issue, Contractor shall execute an affidavit on the certificate that it accepts the same in full payment and settlement of all claims on account of Work done and materials furnished under this Contract, and that all claims for materials provided or labor performed have been paid or set aside in full. No waiver of any breach of this Contract by the Owner or anyone acting on Owner's behalf shall be held as a waiver of any other subsequent breach thereof. 19.2 Contractor agrees to guarantee all work under this Contract for a period of one year from the date of Final Payment by the Owner or within such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required under terms of Owner’s conditional acceptance of elements of the Work the Owner deems marginally substandard. If any unsatisfactory condition or damage develops within the time of this guarantee period due to materials or workmanship that are defective, inferior, or not in accordance with the Contract, as reasonably determined by the Owner or the OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE, then the Contractor shall, when notified by the Owner or OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE, immediately place such guaranteed Work in a condition satisfactory to the Owner or OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE. Such guarantee shall be in addition to any implied warranty under law or other manufacturer’s or product supplier’s warranty. The provisions of this Article apply to Work done by Subcontractors as well as to Work done by direct employees of the Contractor, and are in addition to any other remedies or warranties provided by law.

  • FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT 9.9.1 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final Application for Payment, the Architect will promptly make such 9.9.2 Neither the final payment nor the remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the Architect (1) an affidavit that all payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the State or its property might in any way be responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied; (2) consent of surety, if any, to final payment; (3) Other data establishing payment or satisfaction of all such obligations, including, but not limited to, receipts, releases, or other supporting documentation. and (4) final waivers of liens arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the State. If any Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the State, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the State to indemnify him against any such lien. If any such lien remains unsatisfied after all payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the State all moneys that the latter may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. 9.9.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the Contractor or by the issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, and the Architect so confirms, the State shall, upon application by the Contractor and certification by the Architect, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Contract Documents, and if bonds have been furnished as required by the Contract Documents, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Architect prior to certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims. 9.9.4 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the State except those arising from: (a) unsettled liens, (b) faulty or defective Work appearing after Substantial Completion, (c) failure of the Work to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents, or (d) terms of any special warranties required by the Contract Documents. 9.9.5 The acceptance of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the Contractor except those previously made in writing and identified by the Contractor as unsettled at the time of the final Application for Payment.

  • ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK If the Owner prefers to accept Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Owner may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum will be reduced as appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.
