The AWMAC GIS program

The AWMAC GIS program offers through its members in good standing a two year AWMAC Guarantee Certificate on projects which have the recommended GIS wording specified in the tender documents. 

GIS wording for specifications

Architectural woodwork shall be manufactured and/or installed to the specified AWMAC Quality Standards and shall be sub-ject to an inspection at the plant and/or site by an appointed inspector, approved by the local AWMAC Chapter. Inspection costs shall be included in the tender price for this project. (Contact your local AWMAC Chapter for details of inspec-tion costs). Shop drawings shall be submitted to the AWMAC Chapter office for review before work commences. Work that does not meet AWMAC Quality Standards, as specified, shall be replaced, reworked and/or refinished by the architectural woodworker, at no additional cost to the owner, and to the approval of AWMAC.

The architectural woodworker shall furnish the owner with a two (2) year maintenance bond, to the full value of the architectural woodwork sub-contract, certifying that the architectural wood-work has been manufactured and / or installed in accordance with the standards incorporated in the Architectural Woodwork Quality Standards Illustrated, (edition in effect at time of tender). If the woodwork contractor is an AWMAC member in good standing, a two (2) year AWMAC Guarantee Certificate will be issued instead of the maintenance bond. The maintenance bond / Guarantee shall cover replacing, reworking and / or refinishing to make good defects in architectural woodwork due to faulty workmanship or defective materials supplied by the architectural woodworker, which appear during a two (2) year period following the date of substantial completion of the architectural woodwork contract.
