Construction Administration Manual of Procedures

Abstract:

The Construction Administration Manual of Procedures (MOP) is a companion document to the Construction and Material Specifications (C&MS). The C&MS is written to the Contractor and is a contract document included in each construction project the Department awards. The overall role of the MOP is to provide confidence that the quality of the workmanship incorporated into highway construction projects conforms to the requirements of the plans and specifications. More specifically, the MOP is used to:

  • Describe how to inspect and document the contractor’s work.
  • Describe typical construction means and methods to improve inspection.
  • Give guidance for directing the contractor’s work when it is required.
  • Give background technical information for specific items of work to aid understanding.
  • Give guidance for resolving issues and problems when an item of work fails to perform.
  • Ensure consistent construction project management across the state.
