APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT
INSTRUCTIONS
A. GENERAL INFORMATION
The sample form of Schedule of Values is intended as a guide only. Many projects require a more extensive form with space for numerous items, descriptions of Change Orders, identification of variable quantity adjustments, summary of materials and equipment stored at the site and other information. It is expected that a separate form will be developed by Engineer and Contractor at the time Contractor's Schedule of Values is finalized. Note also that the format for retainage must be changed if the Contract permits (or the law provides), and Contractor elects to deposit securities in lieu of retainage. Refer to Article 14 of the General Conditions for provisions concerning payments to Contractor.
B. COMPLETING THE FORM
The Schedule of Values, submitted and approved as provided in paragraphs 2.05.B.3 and 2.07 of the General Conditions, should be reproduced as appropriate in the space indicated on the Application for Payment form. Note that the cost of materials and equipment is often listed separately from the cost of installation. Also, note that each Unit Price is deemed to include Contractor's overhead and profit.
All Change Orders affecting the Contract Price should be identified and included in the Schedule of Values as required for progress payments.
The form is suitable for use in the Final Application for Payment as well as for Progress Payments;
however, the required accompanying documentation is usually more extensive for final payment. All accompanying documentation should be identified in the space provided on the form.
C. LEGAL REVIEW
All accompanying documentation of a legal nature, such as Lien waivers, should be reviewed by an attorney, and Engineer should so advise Owner.
