Suspension eligibility review checklist

Treat every prerequisite as a separate review

This checklist does not score or automatically approve suspension. A completed administrative checklist is not a legal opinion. Record the reviewer’s decision, source, assumptions and limits for each material requirement.

Project contract proposed action and scope

Decision owner legal reviewer and jurisdiction

If any prerequisite is unresolved, record a hold on the proposed commercial action and the person who must resolve it. Do not treat silence, an unpaid balance or a filled form as approval.

Check readiness independently

• Current payment and response records have been rechecked.
• Scope and effective time match the reviewed authorization.
• Safety lead has a site-specific protection and monitoring plan.
• Essential services, temporary works and weather exposure have responsible owners.
• Trades suppliers insurers or others are notified where required.
• Costs and mitigation are documented without assuming recoverability.
• Resumption conditions and communication responsibilities are assigned.

Safety readiness does not cure an invalid notice; legal authorization does not replace a safe site plan.
