Reference and "VALUATION" works here too. Just as "measuring" to achieve staged payments does.

In other words, all the work that will be completed in future will be evaluated on the basis of the sample work that has been done.

Here two types of work seems to be in consideration:

1. Those work that will be taken up in the future (as a reference for all subsequent work)

2. And those work that have already been done, probably before the contract was signed (and the valuation of acceptable works DONE FOR PAYMENT. This category of work will be evaluated as per the sample work.
Peer comment(s):

agree David Moore (X) : Totally... A reference sample is there to show what IS TO BE made, and for valuation purposes once the item HAS BEEN made. Otherwise the English wording would include "TO BE"...(done for payment)

not yet done

a sample work has already been done; it is the standard for all the work that is not yet done, the work done for payment.

Thank you, Sunshine King

Yes. Thank you, Rita
disagree David Moore (X) : Impossible! You cannot value a thing until it has been made, performed or whatever, and this is VALUATION, Rita...

I'll buy your "valuation" but not your "impossible." Both the work to be done and the valuation of that work are in the future. They've made a sample which is to be the standard for the future valuation of the work that is to be done. That's how I see it.

works DONE FOR PAYMENT => works already executed and works to be executed for which payment will be due (not works done for free)
