How should data be provided in SD-11 closeout submittals?

• A. In imperial units only
• B. In the unit of measure used in the contract documents
• C. In any unit of measurement the vendor chooses
• D. In the project engineer's preferred unit

Answer: (B)

Data in SD-11 closeout submittals must be in the unit of measure specified in the contract documents. Using the contract’s designated units keeps measurements consistent across all project records, making it clear what was delivered, paid for, and accepted. It also ensures that drawings, bills of materials, and performance data align with what the contracting officer expects during closeout. If the contract calls for imperial units, provide measurements in inches, feet, pounds, etc.; if metric is specified, use meters, kilograms, and so on. Following the contract units prevents confusion, avoids delays, and supports accurate verification and acceptance. Using the vendor’s preferred units or the project engineer’s preferred unit introduces potential misinterpretation and is not authoritative unless the contract explicitly requires or authorizes it.
