EC "A" has performed, I'd say 50% of the scope. The GC recognized that they were not performing according to the schedule. EC "A" was asked to work along side of EC "B". EC "A" did not like the idea, and decided to leave. EC "B" were asked to do the impossible and complete the project.
Now there were some task done by EC "A", that had to be redone by EC "B". So I would have to say, EC "B" had a little more than 50% to complete the work. And not to mention the investigating. Well, that was the easy part.
The hard part - The question:
We have not been asked, but feel it coming, Warranty???? How to warranty the work that has been performed on this project??? EC "B" is trying to keep from being exposed too much, but be fair about warranting their work that were performed. Now, I see being that EC "B" was the last electrical contractor on site, they are going to be the ones that will be called if anything goes wrong to perform warranty work. What happens if it's work done by EC "A"?
How do I approach this situation? Has anyone gone through this situation before? How have you combat the situation, and how did the GC take it?
