Which of the following is a responsibility of post-contract services?

  1. Sending out invitation to bidders.

  2. Providing start-up assistance.

  3. Determining project type.

  4. Issuing addenda for bid documents.

The correct answer is: Providing start-up assistance.

Providing start-up assistance is considered a responsibility of post-contract services because this phase occurs after a contract has been awarded and emphasizes ensuring that the project transition from planning to implementation is smooth. Start-up assistance typically includes offering technical support and guidance to the contractor or client, making sure that all systems and processes are in place for the project's successful launch. In contrast, sending out invitations to bidders and issuing addenda for bid documents are actions taken during the pre-contract phase, which involves solicitation and procurement processes. Determining the project type is also part of the project initiation or planning phase, well before any contract is executed. Thus, the focus on providing start-up assistance correctly aligns with the responsibilities that arise after the contract has been finalized.
