COORDINATION

Coordinate construction operations included in various Sections of these Specifications to assure efficient and orderly installation of each part of the Work. Coordinate construction operations included under different Sections that depend on each other for proper installation, connection, and operation.

Schedule construction operations in the sequence required to obtain the best results where installation of one part of the Work depends on installation of other components, before or after its own installation.

Coordinate installation of different components to assure maximum accessibility for required maintenance, service, and repair.

Make provisions to accommodate items scheduled for later installation.

Inspection of Conditions: Require the Installer of each major component to inspect both the substrate and conditions under which Work is to be performed. Do not proceed until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in an acceptable manner.

Coordinate temporary enclosures with required inspections and tests to minimize the necessity of uncovering completed construction for that purpose.

Where necessary, prepare memoranda for distribution to each party involved, outlining special procedures required for coordination. Include such items as required notices, reports, and attendance at meetings.

Prepare similar memoranda for the Government and separate contractors where coordination of their work is required.

Administrative Procedures: Coordinate scheduling and timing of required administrative procedures with other construction activities to avoid…
