About this file

This document is a Price and Payment Procedures section from a State of New Hampshire contract specification for the Center Strafford Site MEP Upgrades project. The procedures establish the framework for contractor requisitions, payment applications, and contract modifications throughout the project execution. Contractors must submit payment applications using AIA Form G702/G703 or department-approved equivalents, accompanied by an updated construction schedule and a transmittal letter to the project Architect/Engineer. A Schedule of Values must be submitted within 15 days of the Notice to Proceed, with failure to do so constituting contract default. The schedule must identify each line item by specification section number and title, include separate line items for closeout documentation and allowances/alternates, and be revised with each requisition to reflect approved Change Orders.

Payment is calculated based on actual measurements and quantities of work completed, as determined by the Architect/Engineer, using measurement methods specified in individual specification sections including weight, volume, area, and linear dimensions. Contractors may request changes through the department, which will issue either Supplemental Instructions for minor changes or Proposal Requests for changes requiring cost and time adjustments. Change Orders incorporate indirect costs including worker's compensation, unemployment, and social security taxes, plus markups of twenty percent for general contractor work and ten percent for subcontractor work; net credit changes receive no overhead allowance. Defective work must be corrected or replaced per department direction, with payment adjustments made at the department's discretion. Allowances provide stipulated funding for owner-directed modifications or unforeseen conditions, drawn only by Change Order, with unused funds credited back to the department at project completion. All testing and inspection costs are the contractor's responsibility and must be performed by independent certified agencies not affiliated with the contractor.
