OIG recommends that the Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations, in coordination with Embassy London and prior to issuing the Certificate of Final Acceptance, verify that the stone pavers and tiles that were installed at Embassy London were the grade and quality of materials approved and that they were installed correctly. If the grade and quality of materials is not consistent with contract requirements, in coordination with the Bureau of Administration and the Office of the Legal Advisor, OBO should determine the extent to which the construction contractor, B.L. Harbert International, LLC, (under contract # SAQMMA-12-C-0111) is responsible and recover any associated costs.
