Rule 27-4021 - CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMANCE

4021.1

A certificate of conformance may be used instead of source inspection, whether the contract calls for acceptance at the source or at destination, at the discretion of the contracting officer, if the following conditions apply:

(a) Acceptance on the basis of a contractor's certificate of conformance is in the best interests of the District; and

(b) Either small losses would be incurred in the event of a defect; or, based on the contractor's reputation or past performance, it is likely that the goods or services furnished will be acceptable and any defective work would be replaced, corrected, or repaid without contest.

4021.2

Even if a certificate of conformance is used pursuant to § 4021.1, the District's right to inspect goods, services, and construction under the inspection provisions of the contract shall not be prejudiced.
