Who produces the statement of responsibility?

The statement of responsibility is produced by the contractor. This statement is critical as it outlines the contractor's obligations regarding compliance with the construction documents, regulations, and specific requirements for project execution. It reinforces the contractor's role in ensuring that all work performed adheres to the specified guidelines, codes, and standards, thereby affirming their accountability for the quality and integrity of the construction.

The contractor plays a pivotal role in the construction process, acting as the primary party responsible for managing the day-to-day operations, and thus producing this document aligns with their responsibility in ensuring the project meets all necessary requirements. In contrast, while the owner, special inspector, and registered design professional each have their own responsibilities in the project, it is the contractor who directly produces and submits the statement of responsibility, defining their commitment to uphold the necessary standards throughout the project lifecycle.
