A. The Lead Prime Contractor shall coordinate all work on the project with and by the other Separate Prime Contractors.
1. The Lead Prime Contractor shall coordinate construction operations that are dependent upon each other for proper installation, connection, and operation to ensure efficient and orderly installation of each and all parts of the work. Where installation of one part of the work is dependent on installation of other work or components, either before or after its own installation, the Lead Prime Contractor shall schedule construction activities in the sequence required to obtain the best results.
2. Where availability of space is limited, the Lead Prime Contractor shall coordinate the installation of different work and components to assure maximum accessibility for required construction or installation, and for any required maintenance, service, and repair. The Lead Prime Contractor shall ensure adequate provisions are made to accommodate items scheduled for later installation.
B. Each Separate Prime Contractor shall be responsible for installing or connecting certain items that will be furnished by other Separate Prime contractors and bear a direct relationship to the installing contractor’s work. Such items of work include, but are not limited to, through-wall louvers and grills, flashings for floor drains, flashing for vent pipes, access panels, connections for electric motors and devices, and work of similar nature.

If a longer time is determined necessary by the University, the University will, within five (5) working days of receipt of the request, notify the Contractor of the anticipated response time. The University's action may include a request for additional information, in which case the University's time for response will start from the time of receipt of additional information.
E. If the Contractor submits an RFI on an activity with five (5) working days or less of float on the current project schedule, the Contractor shall not be entitled to any time extension due to the time it takes the University to respond to the request, provided that the University responds within the five (5) working days set forth above.
