What happens if a contractor submits a supplier's name who is not on the approved list?

When a contractor submits a supplier's name that is not on the approved list, operations will be suspended until the situation is amended. This approach ensures adherence to quality control standards and regulatory compliance. The reason behind this is to maintain the integrity of the construction process and the quality of materials used. An approved supplier list typically includes vendors who have been evaluated and deemed capable of providing materials that meet the project specifications.

Suspending operations provides an opportunity for the contractor to rectify this issue by either seeking approval for the unlisted supplier or opting for an alternative supplier from the approved list. This measure not only protects the quality of materials being used but also secures the overall safety and reliability of the construction being undertaken.
