failure to proceed shall be borne by the CONSULTANT.

For those services performed by the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT will be
reimbursed the direct non -salary costs (the actual costs of such out-of-pocket
expenses directly attributable to the Contract such as fares, mileage, long distance
calls, equipment rentals, reproductions, etc.) as approved by INDOT. The direct
non -salary costs for travel reimbursement shall not exceed the limitations on
travel expenses set out in the current State of Indiana policy on travel
reimbursement.
4. For those services performed by other than the CONSULTANT, the
CONSULTANT will be reimbursed for the actual invoice for the services
performed by other than the CONSULTANT, provided that each such claim
voucher shall be subject to approval as reasonable by the Local Public Agency
prior to any reimbursement thereof.
5. It is the policy of the Indiana Department of Transportation that Project
Representatives and/or Inspectors be on the construction site whenever the
Contractor is engaged in any activity requiring inspection or testing concurrent
with the construction or activity. In order for the contractor to comply with the
Contract Plans and Specifications and complete the work within the time required,
it is often necessary for the Contractor to work more than an 8-hour day and more
than a 5-day week. This in turn may require the Resident Project Representative
and Inspectors to work over 40 hours per week. The CONSULTANT shall not
bill for overtime for any individual until 40 hours have been worked on the
Contract for the week by that individual. Holiday hours not worked on the
Contract do no apply to the 40 hour week total.
The actual amount payable shall be determined in accordance with a final audit by
INDOT's Division of Cost Accounting and Audits.
Method of Payment
The CONSULTANT may submit a maximum of one clann voucher per calendar
month for work covered under this Contract. The claim vouchers shall be
25
Version 6-8-2017
submitted to:
City of South Bend
Department of Public Works
227 W. Jefferson Blvd., Suite 1316
South Bend, IN 46601
2. The claim vouchers shall represent the value to the Local Public Agency (LPA) of
the partially completed work as of the date of the claim voucher. When submitting
a claim voucher, the CONSULTANT shall furnish a copy of records showing the
individuals who worked on this Contract during the month, their classification,
the number of hours worked since the last claim voucher was submitted, and the
hourly rate.
If the LPA does not agree with the amount claimed by the CONSULTANT on a
claim voucher, the LPA will send the CONSULTANT a letter by regular mail and
list the differences between actual and claimed progress. The letter will be sent to
the CONSULTANT's address on page 13 of this Contract or the
CONSULTANT's last known address.
4. If, prior to the satisfactory completion of the services under this Contract, the total
of the direct and indirect costs incurred by the CONSULTANT is within ten
percent (10%) of the maximum amount payable, the CONSULTANT shall notify
INDOT and the status will be evaluated.
