The A/E or in-house design office provides the Contracting Officer with a
list of shop drawings proposed for review.
Carefully review the list to ensure that the A/E or in-house design office
reviews only those shop drawings that have an impact on design. Include
drawings showing structural connectors, installation details of structural
members, and others that relate to structural strength, integrity of a
system, or the safety of personnel, or drawings that are of significant
design or cost importance.
For the Quality Control UFGS (01450N, 01451N or 01455N), the
Contractor's Quality Control Manager approves submittals, unless
indicated that they are to be approved by the Government. The method
used to indicate that Government approval is required is to place a "G"
following any such submittals. Tag the "G" appropriately in SpecsIntact
such that the submittals are automatically inserted onto the submittals
register by the SpecsIntact system. Approval of submittals by the Quality
Control Manager does not preclude subsequent review by the
Government as a quality control measure. Submittals reserved for
Government approval should consist of those items that the designer
considers to be of special importance because of the complexity of certain
design features, the critical nature of certain life safety features, or the
necessity to maintain control of certain project features.
Specifications list the submittal types and products or services to be the
subject of the submittal. Do not repeat information contained in UFGS-
01330 in the technical sections.
Promptly give to the A/E or in-house design office for review and approval
those submittals being reviewed by the Government. Review drawings for
compliance with the contract documents. Only a qualified fire protection
engineer can approve fire protection systems. A registered professional
engineer practicing structural engineering must approve structural
systems. Provide results of the review to the Contracting Officer within 2
weeks after receipt of submittals by the A/E or in-house design office.
Submittals to be reviewed by the Government should be certified by the
Contractor's Quality Control (QC) Manager in accordance with UFGS
01450N, 01451N or 01455N, whichever is included in the project.
