28ODOT Quality Assurance Program
NOTE: The Quality Assurance Testing (both Verification and Independent Assurance)
will be performed by a Quality Assurance Laboratory designated by the Agency in
compliance with 23CRF637.
Quality Assurance Program Components
Third-Party Resolution
Third Party Resolution is used when the Agency’s Quality Assurance test results conflict with
ongoing Quality Control test results and when verification requirements are not met or the
conflict cannot be resolved. Third-Party Resolution can be requested by either the Contractor or
the Project Manager.
Third Party Resolution testing shall be performed by a Dispute Resolution Laboratory. The
Construction Section’s Central Materials Laboratory performs third party and dispute
resolutions. This is normally done by testing quality control production backup samples , but
may include other resolution techniques or procedures as determined by the agencies technical
expert for the corresponding specification section.
The test result(s) of the Dispute Resolution Laboratory performing dispute resolution materials
testing for any or all disputed test results will be considered the actual test results and will
therefore be used for acceptance of the material.
