Sec. 36.516  Quantity surveys.

contract providing for unit pricing of items and for payment based on 

quantity surveys is contemplated. If it is determined at a level above 

that of the contracting officer that it is impracticable for Government 

personnel to perform the original and final surveys, and the Government

with its Alternate.
