Additional payments will not be made should the Contractor elect to move his/her equipment and/or crew to another project site befor e the contracted work is complete or if the Contractor fails to adequately as sess the actual cost of Mobilization for the contracted work.
112.02 Method of Measurement and Basis of Payment
1.No measurement is required.
2.a. The partial payment for any Mobilization item will be limited to an amount not to exceed 10% of the tota l amount bid, including Mobilization, for the group in which the Mobilization occurs. In the event the lump sum bid for "Mobilization" exceeds 10% of the total group amount, the amount in excess of 10% of the total group amount will not be paid until the Engineer has made tentative acceptance of the work included in the proposal.
b.When it is necessary to de lay tentative acce ptance because of a required observation period, the entire amount for “Mobilization” may be paid upon tentative acceptan ce of the other work.
3.Subject to the limitat ions stated in Paragraph 2. of this Subsection, partial payments will be made as follows:
a.Following contract executi on, the Department will pay up to 25% of the total amount bid for "Mobiliz ation". This payment is limited to the Contractor's documented costs of obt aining Contract Bond and Railroad Protective Liability Insurance premiums. These costs must exceed $200.00.
b.Upon completion of 5% of a group's originally contracted work, excluding Mobilization, the Departm ent will pay 50% of that group's Mobilization amount.
c.Upon completion of 10% of a group's originally contracted work, excluding Mobilization, the Depar tment will pay 100% of that group's Mobilization amount.
4.When "Mobilization" is not sh own as a separate pay item for a group in the proposal, the work described in this Section will be considered subsidiary to other pay items in the group.
