Unless otherwise specified in the contract documents, the Government intends to take possession of the facilities included in this project at one date. That single Substantial Completion date is specified in days following issuance of the Notice to

G.11 PAYMENT TERMS

Notwithstanding FAR 52.232-27 entitled Prompt Payment for Construction Contracts, the Contracting Officer shall process payments to the Contractor within fourteen (14) calendar days from receipt of a proper invoice. Along with each request for Progress Payments, the contractor shall furnish the certification as prescribed in FAR 52.232-5(c), or payment shall not be made. The Contractor must complete a Standard Form 1444 entitled “Request for Authorization of Additional

Classification and Rate” to add any trade not included within the Davis Bacon Wage Determination or Project Labor

Agreement. The completed form must be sent to the Contracting Officer for review and approval and then forwarded to the Wage and Hour Division.

The prime Contractor shall pay each classification of employees, at a minimum, the applicable wage and benefits for that classification made pursuant to the Davis Bacon Act determination.

Before the first progress payment under this contract becomes due, the Contractor shall prepare a Schedule of Values of the contract price that is acceptable to the Contracting Officer within ten calendar days from the receipt of the Notice to

Proceed. The values in the breakdown will be used for determining progress payments. No progress payments requests will be accepted or considered for payment until the Schedule of Values (SOV) has been accepted and approved by the

Contracting Officer.

Preparatory work done (including design submittals and shop drawings) will be taken into consideration in preparing estimates upon which progress payments are based. Unless otherwise provided in the specifications, materials delivered that will be incorporated into the structure will be taken into consideration in computing progress payments, provided the material is delivered on the site, or is delivered to the Contractor and properly stored by the Contractor in a bonded warehouse or storage yard, or similar suitable place as may be approved by the Contracting Officer. Before each such payment is made for delivered material stored on the site, the Contractor shall furnish to the Contracting Officer such evidence as may be required as proof of the quantity and value of such materials. Before each payment is made for delivered materials stored on or off site, the Contractor shall furnish the Contracting Officer with properly executed bills of sale for the delivered material upon which payment is being made. The Contractor shall remain responsible for such stored materials.

The Government shall pay the Contractor the contract price as provided by the contract and make progress payments as the work proceeds. Estimates on which progress payments are based shall include the value (as determined by the

Contracting Officer) of satisfactory in-place work performed pursuant to a unilateral modification (change order) where final agreement on the equitable price adjustment has not been reached, up to the limit specified in the individual unilateral modification. Along with each request for Progress Payments, the contract shall furnish the Contractor

Certification as prescribed in FAR 52.232-5(c), or payment shall not be made.

As prescribed by FAR 32.103, if satisfactory progress has not been achieved or if work is not in compliance with contract documents, Federal or State Laws/Regulation, the CO may withhold up to 10% of the amount of a progress payment until satisfactory progress is demonstrated.

The Contractor shall not be deemed to have the right to receive final payment due or to become due under this contract unless and until the Contractor’s surety has made payment in settlement of requirements of the surety’s undertaking under the payment or performance bond and has so notified the Contracting Officer of the claims and amounts so paid.

G.12 PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR

Before the first progress payment under this contract becomes due, the Contractor shall prepare a Schedule of Values of the contract price that is acceptable to the Contracting Officer. The values in the breakdown will be used for determining progress payments. No progress payments requests will be accepted or considered for payment until the Schedule of

Values has been accepted and approved by the Contracting Officer.

The Contractor’s Schedule of Values shall provide a line item of at least of at least 10% of the contract price to cover preparation and delivery of the required close out documents specified in Section G.22. The Schedule of Values shall be set up by participating trades, and when more than 1 building/structure/phrase is involved, the breakdown shall be set by trades by building/structure/phase.

Preparatory work done (including design submittals and shop drawings) will be taken into consideration in preparing estimates upon which progress payments are based. Unless otherwise provided in the specifications, materials delivered that will be incorporated into the structure will be taken into consideration in computing progress payments, provided the material is delivered on the site, or is delivered to the contractor and properly stored by the Contractor in a bonded warehouse or storage yard, or similar suitable place as may be approved by the Contracting Officer. Before each such payment is made for delivered material stored on the site, the Contractor shall furnish to the Contracting Officer such evidence as may be required as proof of the quantity and value of such materials. Before each payment is made for delivered materials stored on or off site, the Contractor shall furnish the Contracting Officer with properly executed bills of sale for the delivered material upon which payment is being made. The Contractor shall remain responsible for such stored materials.

Estimates on which progress payments are based shall include the value (as determined by the Contracting Officer) of satisfactory in-place work performed pursuant to a unilateral modification (change order) where final agreement on the equitable price adjustment has not been reached, up to the limit specified in the individual unilateral modification.

The Contractor shall not be deemed to have the right to receive final payment due or to become due under this contract unless and until the Contractor’s surety has made payment in settlement of requirements of the surety’s undertaking under the payment or performance bond and has so notified the Contracting Officer of the claims and amounts so paid.

G.13 METHOD OF PAYMENT

As prescribed by FAR 52.232-33, the Government shall make payment to the Contractor using the EFT information contained in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. In the event that the EFT information changes, the

Contractor shall be responsible for providing the updated information within the CCR database and immediately inform the Contract Specialist.

On October 1, 2003, the requirement for all federal agencies to integrate the use of CCR into their business practices was formalized with the issuance of a new Federal Acquisition Regulation policy, Circular 2003-016, case 2002-018. The issuance of this policy requires all federal contractors to register in the CCR database prior to contract award of any contract or purchase agreement. Furthermore, the rule stipulates CCR will now be the source of EFT account information for contractors doing business with the Federal Government. To this end, payment offices are now required to use the information contained in CCR to accomplish payments to vendors. Therefore, it is extremely important that the

Contractor keeps their information current in CCR. This means that the Contractor must renew their registration at least once every 365 days. In addition, if their active registration expires while they are still under contract all payments will stop.
