Granite Ridge Builders, as lead general contractor, will deliver a complete interior fit-out of Suite 400 — demolition, framing, MEP, finishes, and close-out — for a professional-services tenant, on a 14-week schedule built around landlord and jurisdictional sign-offs. Each milestone is gated on the inspection or approval that releases it.
The Contractor will perform a turn-key interior fit-out of Suite 400 to the approved tenant-improvement drawings: selective demolition, metal-stud framing and drywall, mechanical/electrical/plumbing rough-in and trim, ceilings, flooring, millwork, paint, and final close-out. All work conforms to the building standard, the lease work letter, and the permitted drawing set, and is delivered in five inspection-gated milestones.
Work is sequenced around an occupied building. The Contractor stages materials in the 4th-floor freight lobby, hoists via the freight elevator on landlord-scheduled slots, and protects the elevator cab, corridors, and adjacent suites. Loud demolition and core drilling run in landlord-approved after-hours windows; dust and noise controls stay up for the duration.
Trades are sequenced demo → frame → rough-in → inspect → close walls → finish → punch, with a weekly coordination meeting and a two-week look-ahead schedule. Each inspection gate must clear before the wall is closed or the next trade mobilizes; failed inspections are re-walked within two business days at no schedule credit to the Client.
The permitted drawing set is final and the building permit is issued before Milestone 1 starts. The landlord provides freight-elevator access, after-hours work windows for loud demolition, and timely review of the work letter. The schedule assumes inspections occur within two business days of request; jurisdictional delays beyond that adjust the schedule one-for-one. Concealed conditions and abatement are handled via change order under the General Conditions on the final sheet.
Change orders. Any change to the scope, schedule, or contract sum — including concealed conditions and abatement — takes effect only by written change order signed by both parties before the work proceeds. Field directives do not alter this SOW.
Governing contract. This SOW is incorporated into and governed by the prime contract referenced on the cover. Where this SOW and the prime contract conflict, the prime contract controls except as to scope, milestones, contract sum, and schedule, which this SOW controls.
Permits & inspections. The Contractor pulls and closes the building permit and coordinates all jurisdictional inspections. Substantial completion is achieved on issuance of the certificate of occupancy.
Insurance & lien. The Contractor maintains general liability and workers' comp per the prime contract and furnishes conditional and unconditional lien waivers with each draw.
Warranty. The Contractor warrants all work against defects in materials and workmanship for one year from substantial completion, manufacturer warranties passed through to the Client.
Safety & cleanup. The Contractor maintains an OSHA-compliant site, daily housekeeping, and dust/noise controls protecting occupied floors; the suite is broom-clean at each milestone and final-cleaned before the close-out walk. Damage to base-building or adjacent-tenant property is repaired by the Contractor at its cost.
