DECISION OF SUPERINTENDENT Clause Samples
The 'Decision of Superintendent' clause designates the superintendent as the authority responsible for making determinations or resolving disputes regarding the interpretation or application of the contract. In practice, this means that if disagreements arise between the parties—such as over the quality of work, compliance with specifications, or progress claims—the superintendent reviews the relevant facts and issues a binding decision. This clause ensures that there is a clear, contractually appointed decision-maker to provide timely resolutions, thereby minimizing delays and maintaining project momentum.
