CSI organizes the contract documents into a logical hierarchy:

General Conditions – Standard baseline clauses on rights, responsibilities, procedures (e.g., claims, dispute resolution, termination, payments, schedule of values reference).

Supplementary Conditions – Project-specific modifications or additions to the General Conditions, often driven by laws, funding requirements, or owner policies.

Division 01 – General Requirements – Administrative and procedural requirements specific to the project (submittals, schedule of values procedures, temporary facilities, etc.), coordinated with the Conditions of the Contract.

CSI’s guidance (as used for CDT) explains that Supplementary Conditions are the place to add or modify contract conditions to comply with local laws, regulations, and owner requirements that go beyond or differ from the standard General Conditions. Typical items include:

Project-specific insurance requirements and limits,

Local wage requirements,

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and affirmative action provisions,

Special regulatory or funding-agency conditions.

Therefore, Equal Employment Opportunity requirements belong properly in Supplementary Conditions, making Option C the CSI-consistent answer.

Why the others are incorrect in CSI’s structure:

A. Requirements for a schedule of valuesCSI places the detailed procedures and requirements for the schedule of values in Division 01 – General Requirements, not in the Supplementary Conditions. The General Conditions may mention the schedule of values at a high level, but the “how to” (formats, breakdown, submission procedures) belongs in Division 01, not Supplementary Conditions.

B. Claims and dispute resolution requirementsStandard claims and dispute resolution clauses are part of the General Conditions (for example, notice requirements, initial decision-maker roles, mediation/arbitration steps). Supplementary Conditions may modify certain aspects if needed, but the base provisions themselves are not created there; they originate in the General Conditions.

D. Termination of the work by owner or contractorTermination rights (for cause or for convenience) and their procedures are fundamental contract provisions that belong in the General Conditions. Like claims, they can be adjusted in Supplementary Conditions, but the primary termination clauses are part of the standard General Conditions text, not something you “include” first in Supplementary Conditions.
