Certification by Architect/Engineer Clause Samples
The Certification by Architect/Engineer clause requires that a designated architect or engineer formally verifies that certain work or project milestones have been completed according to the contract's specifications. In practice, this means the architect or engineer inspects the work, confirms compliance with plans and standards, and issues a certificate or written confirmation before payments are released or the project progresses to the next phase. This clause ensures an independent professional assessment of quality and completion, helping to prevent disputes over work status and safeguarding both the owner's and contractor's interests.
