SUMMARY
The Department of Public Works & Utilities (Department) routinely procures services for required material testing and special inspections on all City-sponsored projects since the City does not have material testing laboratories or personnel to perform this work inhouse. Materials testing and special inspections are required on all capital improvement projects to ensure that the materials used meet project specifications.
