Project Diaries
Document the actual pay item(s) of work performed each day.
- Include the appropriate C&MS Item number
- Also include the Project Reference number
14
Materials Acceptance
• All materials incorporated into the Work need to be
documented.
• Use C&MS Section 700 for documentation guidance
“700 Minimum Requirements for Sampling Materials”
(Page 663 of the 2016 C&MS)
• Temporary materials are to be documented in this manner as well.

15
Materials Acceptance
• Make sure the Contractor provides a list of materials to you at the preconstruction meeting per C&MS 108.02
• The Prime Contractor must provide a list of materials to be used by all of the subcontractors as well.
• The (CPE) Construction Project Engineer is responsible for ensuring ALL materials are approved before use on site.
16
Reference / Pay Item Files
• Provide individual folders for each Pay item of work.
Include all required materials documentation in the folder.
This simplifies the auditing process.
• Field Documentation Inspection Forms
• Seven identifiers
• Project Number, Item Number, Plan Reference Number, Work Description, Location, Date, Signature
• Plan quantity vs. Actual Quantity?
• Don’t just pay plan quantity.
(Often becomes a red flag when auditing)
• Properly document field measurements and calculations.

17
Reference / Pay Item Files
• Summarized final quantity sheet in each Pay item Folder
Include Dates of work, Locations, Daily Payment Amounts
and the Running Totals to date.
Summary sheets should cross check with the inspector’s
Daily Diary Entries.
• Non-performed items still require documentation

Submitting Invoices to ODOT:
Local Let Summary and Payable Invoice (LLS&PI)
Don’t just sign and send !!
The CPE or Person in Responsible Charge has an obligation to
review and insure that the reimbursement amounts are true and
accurate.
Does everything make sense??

Submitting Invoices to ODOT:
By signing and dating, you are attesting that you have
audited all the calculations and quantities for payment.
ODOT personnel discover numerous errors that are
simply unacceptable.
Invoices with errors will be rejected and sent back for
revision.
