Seems reasonable.
City pre-approved the fabricator company, and the expectation is the same on a fixed price contract, that the company is able to deliever non crappy work and live up to the contract

Granham will go after the city for the lost time, thats the way the contract works. The city will have the option to go after the vendor fabricator

The welding problems have been blamed on Spanish subcontractor Augescon, one of the fabrication companies the city pre-approved but which Graham Infrastructure hired, based on its low bid
