An experience statement with pertinent information as to similar projects and other evidence of qualification shall be furnished for each named subcontractor,if requested by the Owner. If the Owner or Engineer after due investigation has reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor,they may, before giving the Notice of Award,request the apparent low Bidder to submit an acceptable substitute. If the substitution results in an increase in the Bid, a corresponding adjustment will be made in the contract price.

An item will not be considered partially subcontracted unless the prime contractor performs a portion of the work (equipment, materials or labor). If the same item is subcontracted at multiple levels, the cost is only accounted for at the first level.
