Construction consists of Contract Administration (CA) and Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI), which is accomplished by the Local Government Agency (LGA) in accordance with the NCDOT Construction Manual. LGAs are encouraged to hire a Professional Engineering Firm (PEF) to provide these services (see Professional Services).
During the Construction phase, NCDOT will provide oversight through the Division Office or the Resident Engineer's Office. NCDOT must concur with the LGA's acceptance of the project before final Reimbursement can be made.
