Clause 63.8

CE Assessment — Schedule

Purpose

The assessment of a CE is carried out within the period stated in the Contract Data or, if none stated, within three weeks of the CE notification.

Practical Application

The CE assessment is time-bound. Both the Contractor (for quotations) and the PM (for own assessments) work to the stated period.

Common Pitfalls

If no period is stated in the Contract Data, the default three-week period applies. Ensure the Contract Data specifies a realistic period for CE assessment.
