Per Item 500, “Mobilization”, of the

Standard Specification

, at final project acceptance (DCO acceptance), create a DWR to pay the contractor the remaining 7% of the mobilization lump sum bid item. A progress estimate can be generated through the acceptance date paying the mobilization, any remaining barricades, and any final quantity adjustment items (if applicable). This type of progress estimate is often referred to as a “Semi-Final” and is the only instance where the estimate period end-date may vary based on the project acceptance date. Any other items of work performed in the month cannot be included for payment with the “Semi-Final”. If the acceptance date of the project is close to the end of your regular month’s estimate cut-off date, do not generate a “Semi-Final” estimate. The payment of the mobilization will then be captured with the regular monthly progress estimate.
