The statewide contract for building inspection services is to be used to verify that materials being constructed are in accordance with the requirements given by the construction documents. Inspection firms are not contracted as professional engineers and are therefore not allowed, and should not be asked, to affix their seal to any document provided to the contractor, agency, design A/E, or OSE project manager.

Agencies procure building inspection services via the statewide contract. All inspection reports bear the signature of the selected inspector, who will be responsible for all aspects of the testing and inspection program according to the construction documents.
