A contract and permit application list different contracting business names for the same work. What is the licensing concern?
Correct Answer
A) The responsible licensed business organization and qualifier should be consistent and accurate
Florida contractor licensing and permit records should identify the responsible licensed entity accurately.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Florida contractor licensing and permit records should identify the responsible licensed entity accurately.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option B: Different names are always acceptable if the material supplier approves them and invoices the correct project
Different names are always acceptable if the material supplier approves them and invoices the correct project skips the written authority, scope, price, notice, or release control needed for license name on contract.
Option C: The discrepancy is solved by increasing the contingency line item
The discrepancy is solved by increasing the contingency line item skips the written authority, scope, price, notice, or release control needed for license name on contract.
Option D: The certificate of occupancy replaces contractor licensing records
The certificate of occupancy replaces contractor licensing records skips the written authority, scope, price, notice, or release control needed for license name on contract.
Memory Technique
License Name On square for Owner Asks: scope, authority, price, paper.
Reference Hint
