1.06 GENERAL

A. Develop, maintain, and use approved design and construction Program to plan, monitor, evaluate, and report accomplishment of work.

1.07 SCHEDULES

A. Prepare design and construction schedules using Critical Path Method outlined in AGC Manual. Use a computer software program to perform mathematical analysis of scheduling data.

1. Prepare schedule based on required sequence and interdependence of activities.

Logically sequence activities.

2. Prepare detailed activity network for accomplishing required work organized by

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). Utilize WBS in lieu of activity codes for organization of schedule. If activity codes are utilized in addition to WBS, use unique activity code names assigned as project codes rather than global codes.

3. Activities except “Award” shall have predecessor activities and activities except “Contract Complete” shall have successor activities.

4. Meet contract requirements; milestone(s) in accordance with the clause at FAR 52.211-10, Commencement, Prosecution, and Completion of Work; and relevant clauses and specification sections. Include interim milestone dates, Government interface dates, contract completion date, and other time or seasonal constraints specified in contract documents.

5. Include work of subcontractors, Government interfaces, and contract milestones.

6. Schedule activities to occur as early as possible without unwarranted constraints.

7. Adjust Construction Program/schedule for seasonal weather conditions. Provide a narrative explaining the expected weather and plan for incorporation in schedule.

8. Reference activities to contract line item number (CLIN) and specification section identified in the Schedule using user-defined fields.

9. Define activities to level of detail resulting in their durations being no greater than 20 workdays unless otherwise accepted by CO.

10. Include separate activities for submittal preparation and submittal reviews as identified by Required Submittal Number (RSN) as listed in the Submittal Requirements for submittals identified by “Yes” in column labeled “CP” of the table. Assign Government submittal review activities to a seven-day calendar with durations as specified in Section 01 33 00 - Submittals. Include RSN in activity description.

11. Include separate activities for fabrication or manufacturing when work involves significant quantities, long lead times, is on the critical path or near critical path, or as requested by the COR.

12. Include contract title, contract number, and Contractor’s name on transmittal cover sheet and each sheet of Gantt chart.

13. For each activity on Gantt chart, display activity identification number, activity description, planned or original duration, start date, finish date, total float, and calendar identification. Do not display early start and late start fields.

14. Include table of abbreviations used in the schedule, listed and defined alphabetically.

15. Use finish to start logic relationships between activities. Do not utilize start to start, finish to finish, or start to finish logic relationships. Do not use negative lead or lag times.

17. Provide best estimate of time required to complete activity considering quantity of work, work conditions, location of work, and planned resources for activity.

18. Equate durations of Government reviews and other identified actions to maximum number of calendar days specified in their respective paragraphs.

19. Establish workday calendar(s) and use these in the schedule to translate activity's workday duration into calendar dates. Use unique calendar names; do not use software default calendar names. Save calendars as project calendars, not global calendars.

B. Cost-Loading Schedule:

1. Cost loading is defined as Contractor earnings based on payments from

Government to contractor.

2. Input contract values as a resource in Primavera P6 database.

3. Allocate contract value to schedule activities per CLIN amounts in accordance with contract requirements and Measurement and Payment statements in specifications.

4. Assign values to appropriate activities. Total of activity values equal total contract value. Every activity does not require a value. Examples of activities that typically have no value are submittals, submittal reviews, and manufacturing.

5. Include separate schedule activities to properly depict correct amount and timing of payment, if necessary, such as Deliver activities.

6. Generate Cash flow reports showing estimated monthly earned value of activities.

a. Report showing each activity cash flow for project duration.

b. Report showing cumulative monthly cash flow for project duration.

7. Generate Activity value report showing value of each activity.

D. Updated Schedule:

1. Meet monthly with COR at Government’s project office, or at a location approved by the COR, to review progress made to end date of progress payment period.

Establish dates that activities were started and completed and remaining duration or percent complete for each activity started but not completed during the period.

a. Discuss and mutually agree upon changes to the schedule.

b. Out-of-sequence activities are not allowed. Revise logic to reflect change in work plan.

c. Finalize updated Design and Construction Program database with mutually agreed upon changes.

1.08 TIME IMPACT ANALYSIS

A. Provide time impact analysis for contract changes, proposed modifications, or value engineering change proposals to support a claim or request for equitable adjustment to the contract due to a delay or accelerated schedule.

B. The CO may use time impact analysis to determine if time extension or reduction to contract milestone dates is justified.

1. Time impact analysis is required for contract changes whether the Contractor’s current schedule milestone dates are the same as, earlier than, or later than, those required under the contract.

2. Changes, additions, or deletions to activities; activity durations; activity time frames; or activity predecessors and successors will not automatically determine that extension or reduction of contract time is warranted or due the Contractor.

3. Time extensions for performance will be considered only to the extent that the Contractor’s current scheduled milestone dates exceed contract milestone dates.

C. Float is not for exclusive use by or benefit of either the Government or the Contractor.

D. Prepare a single time impact analysis for modifications issued after Notice to Proceed (NTP) and prior to approval update.

E. Perform time impact analyses using data in most recent approved schedule update prior to change or delay event.

1. Prepare proposed revised schedule and narrative description describing and highlighting changes or delays.

2. Prepare summary comparing results of two schedule analyses: One using current schedule data from last approved updated schedule prior to event requiring analysis, and one using proposed schedule data incorporating changes or delays.

a. Show contract milestones and activities whose periods of performance have shifted as result of change which affects production and/or manufacture schedules, material orders, construction seasons, and labor and/or equipment utilization.

b. For activities directly affected by change or delay, include the current and proposed items:

1) Activity description.

2) Types and quantities of major pieces of equipment, principal manpower, and pacing materials (materials that affect activity start, duration, or finish).

3) Activity duration.

4) Narrative containing rationale used in developing the proposed logic relationships and activity data.

c. Data date for impacted schedule used in comparison is the same as approved updated schedule data date.

d. Base schedule comparisons on status of work and available float at time the CO directs or proposes change to the work, the Contractor submits a value engineering change proposal, or when a delay occurs as shown in approved updated schedule.
