When the Public Body wants the Contractor to finish before the Intended Completion Date, the Engineer will obtain priced proposals for achieving the necessary acceleration from the Contractor. If the Public Body accepts these proposals, the Intended Completion Date will be adjusted accordingly and confirmed by both the Public Body and the Contractor.
If the Contractor’s priced proposals for acceleration are accepted by the Public Body, they are incorporated in the Contract Price and treated as a modification.
Either the Engineer or the Contractor may require the other to attend a formal management meeting, to discuss the Public Body's levels of satisfaction in respect of the Works carried out under the Contract, to review the plans for remaining work, and to agree any necessary action to address areas of dissatisfaction. The Contractor will not obstruct or withhold its agreement to any such necessary action. Such meetings shall be attended by duly authorized and sufficiently senior employees of both the Public Body and the Contractor together with any other relevant attendees. The Parties shall agree a standing agenda for such Reviews.
The Engineer shall record the business of management meetings and provide copies of the record to those attending the meeting and to the Public Body. The responsibility of the parties for actions to be taken shall be decided by the Engineer either at the management meeting or after the management meeting and stated in writing to all who attended the meeting.
