Section 5490.602-5: Responsibilities of the COTR.

(a) General Responsibilities. The general responsibilities of the COR and COTR are similar, but the COTR reports to the COR, and the COR reports to the contracting officer, when appointed. The COTR's function is to act as the technical advisor to the COR when appointed. When a COR is not appointed, the COTR reports directly to the contracting officer.

(1) Assure that the COR has an understanding of individual responsibilities and working arrangements. Such discussions are necessary immediately after appointment and are appropriate at any time during the period of contract performance;

(2) Arrange a schedule with the COR to monitor contractual requirements. The contracting officer must be promptly informed of delays in progress of work and of any problem encountered that may require a contract modification or other administrative action;

(3) Become knowledgeable of the duties and functions of the COR; and

(4) Inform the COR of any disagreements with the contractor regarding technical interpretation of the contract.

(b) Specific Responsibilities. The specific responsibilities of the COTR will vary with each contract. COTRs should become familiar with all responsibilities outlined in the COTR letter of appointment and with the limitations on their authority. If authorized by the contracting officer, it is the COR's responsibility to determine when the work is complete and conforms with the technical requirements of the contract. However, the COTR will often be delegated this responsibility when technical expertise is needed. The COTR is not authorized to execute DD Form 250 or any other formal written acceptance unless the COTR has been specifically designated the authority to do so in writing. The COTR may be required to assist the

COR with inspections or evaluations required by the contract.
