• Review, challenge, and authenticate the Contractor's Daily Progress Reports (DPRs) for accuracy of recorded work, consumed resources, and recorded weather downtime.
• Validate that any proposed changes to approved procedures are managed through the formal Management of Change (MOC) process prior to implementation.
