Let’s start with the Contracting Officer Technical Representative (COTR)
 

As the COTR, their primary duty is to monitor the Contractor's performance to ensure that all of the technical requirements under the contract are met by the delivery date or within the period of performance, and at the price or within the estimated cost stipulated in the contract.  In addition, they will be required to review and certify to the Contracting Officer that the Contractor’s invoices should, or should not be approved for payment. This is very important for a Contractor, if you do not have a relationship with your COTR, it could cause a delay in payment.

In the performance of the duties delegated to the COTR, he or she could be held personally liable for actions taken or directions given by the COTR to the Contractor that are beyond the authorities to the COTR.

Duties as applicable to the followings:

·        Monitor Performance
