GC Company is a building contractor, performing work for the Owner of a construction project. The contract

between GC Company and Owner provides that there will be six phases of work. Further it provides that at the

end of each phase of work, GC Company should submit its request for payment to Owner’s architect. Once the

architect approves the work performed, GC Company is entitled to payment of 1/6 of the total contract price.

GC Company performs work on phases 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and the Owner pays for the work despite the fact that

GC Company never submitted its requests for payment to the architect and never got the architect’s approval of

the work. When GC Company submits its request for the sixth and final payment, the Owner refuses to pay it on

the grounds that GC Company has never submitted it, or any other request for payment, to the architect. What is

GC Company’s most likely argument that it is entitled to payment?
