FORCE ACCOUNT WORK. 7.13.1 If no agreement can be reached on Changes in the Work and adjustment of the Contract Price or Contract Time, or the Design-Builder refuses to accept a Change Notice, Change Order, or Time and Material Change Order, the City shall have the right to have the work in question done by Persons other than the Design-Builder.
FORCE ACCOUNT WORK. 14.3 If an order to change Work, deletes Work which is to be performed hereunder and such deletion results in a substantial reduction, in the opinion of Company, in the labor or materials to be furnished by Contractor hereunder then such reduction in Work shall be considered "Omitted Work" and Company shall be entitled to a reduction in the compensation to be paid Contractor as provided in Article 18.
FORCE ACCOUNT WORK. A Force Account may be used at the County’s discretion and only when either 1) agreement on the valuation of a change cannot be made using the methods described in the preceding paragraph, County Ordered Changes in the Work, or 2) the County cannot firmly establish an applicable and acceptable estimate for the cost of the Work because the level of effort necessary to perform and complete the Work cannot be reasonably estimated or anticipated but can only be determined by performing the Work.

Change, if any, in the Contract Amount due to such Force Account Work shall be the sum total of the following items:

If force account work is done on the contract the Contractor shall furnish to the Engineer three (3) copies of a certificate from the insurance company showing the compensation insurance rates to be charged on the various classes of work to assist in verification of the Contractor’s charges for extra work and force account.
