2.5.3 Follow Up Phase


NotificationThere are no notification requirements associated with the followup phase.
ExecutionThe followup phase consists of daily checks performed to assure continuing compliance
with applicable quality standards and contract requirements. Towards the end of a DFW, final
followup checks shall be conducted and all deficiencies corrected prior to the start of additional
DFWs which may be affected by the deficient work.
Followup Phase Documentation RequirementDaily checks shall be recorded as in the text of the
daily QC report.

2.5.4 Project Completion


NotificationThe designated Owners Representative shall be notified by the CQM of the status of
the contractor punch list as well as the correction of all deficiencies. The prefinal and final
12

inspections should be properly scheduled with involved personnel (and the customer in the case of
the final inspection.)
ExecutionThe following sequence of QC inspections and closure activities should occur at the
completion of project work:
1) Throughout the execution of the work the CQM and subordinate inspectors shall conduct
inspections of the work and develop a deficiency log for work inspected that is not in
conformance with contract plans and specifications. The CQM shall review all deficiency logs
generated and compile into a project deficiency log. The punch list generated by the CQM with
input from the designated owners representative shall be posted in the field office. This list
shall be maintained and kept current and reported in the generated daily quality control report
and shall include the estimated date by which each deficiency will be corrected. The designated
owners representative shall notify the CQM of their finding of any additional deficiencies. The
CQM shall add these deficiencies to the maintained punchlist. The CQM and subordinate
inspectors shall repeat inspection(s) as necessary to ascertain that all deficiencies have been
corrected. These additional inspection(s) as well as a statement that all punch list deficiencies
have been corrected shall be recorded in the QC daily report.
2) Following Contractor punchout, the designated owners representative, CQM and any discipline
inspectors shall conduct the prefinal inspection. The CQM will assure that all deficiencies noted
during the prefinal inspection are corrected and shall report the status of the inspection and
status of corrective actions in the daily quality control report. Upon correction of all
nonconforming work the CQM shall certify in writing to the Owners Representative that all work
completed to date is in accordance with the plans and specifications.
3) The final inspection occurs in the same manner following the completion of prefinal corrective
actions. As with the prefinal inspection, the CQM shall document the inspection as well as the
correction of all deficiencies in the daily quality control report.
Project Completion Documentation RequirementsAs previously discussed, documentation of all
completion inspections, including contractor punchout, shall be recorded into the daily quality
control report. During construction of the project the CQM shall ensure that updates to the project
red line drawings are kept current. During project completion, the CQM shall ensure the completion
and quality of asbuilt drawings and O&M manuals, where appropriate.

2.6 Taking Action for Deficiencies and NonCompliance


The CQM and subordinate inspectors shall not only identify and track deficiencies, but shall implement
the proper action to resolve/correct deficiencies. A number of tools shall be available to document,
track, and correct deficiencies yet proper judgment on the part of the CQM is also required to best
address deficiencies. Table 2.6 provides a summary of available actions for resolving, tracking, and
documenting deficiencies:

13

Table 2.6 Deficiency Action Alternatives


Deficiency Action Alternatives
1) Preventive Action

The main role of the CQM and CQC staff is not just to detect
deficiencies but to prevent deficiencies.
Properly implemented preparatory and initial phase
inspections play a major role in such prevention.
During any phase of work, the CQM or QC inspectors exercising
good judgment can discover potential problem areas and
prevent such problems, thus minimizing deficiencies and
increasing project quality and costeffectiveness.

2) On the spot deficiency


correction

3) Documentation of
Deficiencies

4) Stop Work Authority

This action involves no documentation and involves simple


correction of very minor nonrepetitive deficiencies.
Throughout the execution of the work the CQM and
subordinate inspectors shall conduct inspection of the work
and develop a list of deficiencies for work inspected that is
not in conformance with contract plans and specifications.
A list of deficiencies would be found as part of the QC
Daily Report Form, Appendix D. Contractor Quality Control
Report and the punch list generated by the CQM are the
means of logging and tracking deficiencies.
In some cases, this is a necessary action. Stop work authority
shall be exercised only when other alternatives have failed or are
not appropriate.

2.7 Testing and Observation


A QC Testing List will be generated as part of the preparatory phase meeting when anticipated tests
are required in performance of this contract. This matrix shall be appended to accommodate
additional project designs as they become available. All analysis of tests shall be performed by an
approved laboratory with current validations/certifications.
Before a particular field test is performed, The CQM shall become familiar with the particular testing
method required. The CQM or applicable discipline inspectors shall consult with the person
performing the field test methods and note any variations or substitutions to the prescribed method.
QCM and staff members shall have the authority to stop any testing that does not conform to
specifications. All testing procedures shall be based upon the applicable accepted industry methods.
14

Testing may include analytical testing of soils, fluids, or other matrices; American Society for testing
and Materials testing of materials; and any quality control testing work required to verify compliance
with contract specifications. The CQM will perform periodic spot checks of testing activities and
document compliance in the QC Daily Report.
Offsite testing laboratories, if required, shall be appropriately certified. If required and under special
circumstances, offsite testing laboratories may be inspected and audited by the QCM to verify that
the facilities and testing equipment are available and that they comply with testing standards. This
inspection and audit would include review of all laboratory certifications, verification that instruments
have been calibrated against certified standards, and securing of copies of calibration records from the
testing laboratory for the job site files.
Actual locations of each test sample shall be selected to provide adequate representation of the
material.

2.8 Field Submittal Management


2.8.1 Roles and Responsibilities
In the field, the CQM or Field Superintendents shall be responsible for 1) proper execution of
submittal procedures, 2) ensuring that submittals meet specified requirements, 3) transmittal and
submission to Owners Representative, and 4) proper documentation and tracking of submittals. The
CQM shall be responsible for submittal management during project. It is key that submittals are
properly managed prior to field efforts and that a proper transfer of submittal responsibility occurs
between the Owners Representative and the CQM prior to the start of definable features of work.

2.8.2 Overview of the Submittal Process


The following timeline overviews the submittal process:
1) Within 10 days of NTP, CCE provides the draft QCM Plan, draft submittal register, and
preliminary project schedule to the Owners representative for initial concurrence and approval.
2) Final QCM Plan, Submittal register and Project Schedule revised as needed for final approval.
3) Starting with NTP procurement and extending to mobilization, administrative submittals
between CCE and MWR shall be recorded and tracked primarily by the QCM. A Submittal
Transmittal Sheet shall be generated and shall accompany all Submittals. Additionally, the
Submittal Register Form shall be kept current and updated where necessary.
4) During premobilization activities, the CQM shall become familiar with required submittals by
reviewing applicable submittal registers. The CQM shall review the current status of each
submittal register and verify that required submittals have been made. Discrepancies, where
noted, shall be brought to the attention of the Owners Representative and resolved prior to
field mobilization.
15

5) The CQM shall be responsible for review of all submittals prior to submission to the Owners
Representative for approval.
6) The CQM ensures the quality and documentation of submittals. As with premobilization
activities, submittals shall be accompanied by a Transmittal Sheet and the Submittal Register
shall be kept current and updated.
7) Issues regarding the quality or timeliness of submittals noted by the CQM shall be considered
deficiencies and managed as such (NOTE: In most cases, failure to meet submittal requirements
has direct contractual implications and contracts representatives need to be made aware of the
issues and associated resolution.)
8) In conjunction with activity closeout or demobilization, the CQM shall ensure that submittal files
are complete, of sufficient quality, and up to date.

2.8.3 Roles and Responsibilities


The main tools of the submittal process are the Transmittal Sheet and the Submittal Register.
Submittal Registers shall be maintained in an electronic format.

2.9 Documentation Requirements


The CQM shall ensure complete and accurate project documentation and data collection. This
documentation forms the basis of record for work activities and will serve to support the project
during follow up reporting and completion. All project records will be retained onsite at the project
office (CCE Site Office, Mesa) until final completion, at which point they will be retained in the CCE
project archive files located at CCEs Office located in Phoenix AZ.

2.9.1 Contractor Daily Quality Control Report


The CQM shall ensure complete and accurate project documentation. This documentation forms the
basis of record for work activities and will serve to support the project during follow up reporting
and completion.
Appendix D contains an CCE standard QC daily report template to be completed by the CQM daily to
record project work and inspections to include supporting documentation and reports from
Subcontractors or field testing laboratories.

2.9.2 Contractor Daily Quality Control Report Supporting Documentation
