1. SCOPE

1.1. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) operates a fleet of 15 research vessels that supports research and mapping for the National Marine Fisheries Service, National Ocean Service, Office of Atmospheric Research and the National Weather Service, as well as provides support to other Federal agencies. These research missions are time sensitive and therefore the data must be collected at specific times during the sailing season to be meaningful. At the end of each sailing season the vessels enter a repair period (drydock or dockside) to address repairs that have been previously identified, perform upgrades to mission systems or ship systems that either extend the life of the ship or provide new data collection capabilities or for safer operations of ships systems as well as address any emergent work that would adversely affect the ships ability to safely perform its mission on schedule, while meeting all regulatory body requirements (American Bureau of Shipping and United States Coast Guard) and all habitability requirements, including any that may be required as a result of contracts for personnel to augment ship staff.

1.2. The work items in the repair specification are identified well in advance of the performance period in order meet the contracting lead times. Additional work items (emergent work) may arise during the period between the work package submittal, contract award, or even prior to the start of or during the contract performance period. In accordance with Commerce Acquisition Regulation (CAR) clause 1352.271-72, the Contracting Officer may order additional changes during the contract period of performance to address any additional work items identified as necessary to ensure the intent of the dockside repair contract is met; that is, that the vessel shall be able to safely perform its mission, that it will meet all habitability requirements and regulatory body requirements, and that such repairs will be timely performed to ensure to the maximum extent practicable that the ship’s schedule is not adversely impacted.

1.3. These Detail Specifications contain the requirements for Drydock repairs and modifications to NOAA Ship Fairweather.

2.2.3. Some of the ship’s drawings have not been updated to reflect modifications to the ship during reactivation in 2004. These drawings and reference documents are for planning purposes only. Actual shipboard configurations and conditions may be different from what is listed. Contractor shall be responsible for verifying all current configuration, construction, and arrangement changes, as necessary, to comply with and perform the work requirements of these specifications. Contractors are encouraged and expected to review ship’s drawings and to perform a field inspection to inspect the locations and shipboard conditions where services are to be performed aboard the Fairweather prior to submitting a bid proposal. This inspection should satisfy potential contractors regarding all general and local conditions, (including locations, interferences, tolerances and necessary “work-arounds, etc.) that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the sites constitute grounds for a change order or claim after contract award.

2.2.4. Ship’s drawings and technical publications may be borrowed during the performance period. It would be preferable for the contractor to make copies of these drawing and technical publications if their intended use will be outside an

Provide the COR with a project staffing plan (paper and electronically) by trade/craft and subcontractor showing how the project will be appropriately staffed to be completed by the end of the performance period. The plan should be “resource loaded” showing the planned labor needed and actual labor hours assigned Schedules shall have enough granularity to show the number of workers, by trade, for all given tasks. Once a Notice to Proceed (NTP) is issued, all additional work shall be added to and reflect in the resource loaded production schedule within 24 hours. These deliverables shall be in Microsoft Project electronic format and 3 paper copies.

2.2.8. The contractor shall have daily production meetings with trade supervisors and the COR to discuss progress, milestones, labor staffing levels and other project issues.

These production meetings shall be attended by both the project manager and project superintendent (trade superintendent or ship manager)

2.2.9. Contractor shall have a project manager and/or ship superintendent assigned exclusively to the Fairweather for the duration of the project. Project Manager or COR approved alternate shall attend all shipboard safety meetings (normally at 0800 on the bridge) during the contract period for all days in which the contractor will be performing work on the ship.

2.2.10. Safety and housekeeping walkthrough inspections of the ship, pier, and other productions areas shall be conducted on a regular basis (daily or more frequent) by the contractor as per section 4.11.5 of reference 2.1.1.

2.2.11. Contractor shall clean up all production areas, sweep up messes, clear all trash and debris and roll back all lines and leads at the end of each shift.

2.2.12. All subcontractors and contractors shall clean areas to the condition they were in prior to the beginning of work. Any areas of concern shall be documented by the Contractor prior to commencing work

When specific details are required, the Government will provide design/detail specifications; this will be more the exception, than the rule.

2.2.25. Frame numbers and space names are derived from ship’s drawings. All equipment changes and space modifications over the ship’s life span may not all be reflected in the referenced drawings. Contractors are encouraged to review all referenced drawings and to perform a field inspection of the ship prior to submitting a bid.

Copies of drawings and technical manuals not included herein may be made available for review during any scheduled pre-bid inspection and during the performance period. Contractors may review available drawings and technical manuals on board ship.

2.5. Notes

2.5.1. Contractors are encouraged to review ship’s drawings and are expected to attend the Fairweather pre-bid inspection to inspect the locations and shipboard conditions of the work items in this package prior to submitting a bid proposal. This inspection should satisfy potential contractors regarding all general and local conditions, compatibility, locations, material sizes and types, components, and accessibility that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the sites during the pre-bid inspection constitute grounds for growth work, change order or claim after contract award.

2.5.2. Much of the ship’s original paint contains zinc chromate. Contractors will encounter this paint during the work aboard the vessel and should take this into account when preparing their bid as it relates to the necessary work required to accomplish the specific tasks.

2.5.3. The contractor and all subcontractors, regardless of tier, shall review other work items under this contact to determine their effect on each other.

2.5.4. The contractor Project Manager shall schedule, facilitate and conduct material status meetings daily with the COR for the first 7 days of the contract and then twice weekly after the first week until the COR is satisfied of the delivery dates of all required material.

2.5.5. The following descriptive data of the ship is provided for information:

Contractors are encouraged to review ship’s drawings, reference documents and submit written questions requesting any needed additional details, photos, or measurements necessary to provide an accurate bid package prior to submitting a bid proposal. These questions should satisfy potential contractors regarding all general and local conditions, compatibility, locations, material sizes and types, components, and accessibility that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to submit questions constitute grounds for growth work, a change order or claim after contract award.
