1.03 SCHEDULER QUALIFICATIONS

A. CONTRACTOR shall have a scheduler with a minimum of 5 years direct experi-ence in the development and maintenance of schedules.

B. CONTRACTOR shall submit the resume of the construction scheduler to OWNER for review and approval. OWNER has the right to refuse to accept the Scheduler based upon a lack of experience as required by this Section or based on lack of on-site performance and timeliness of schedule submittals. If OWNER does not accept the proposed Scheduler, CONTRACTOR shall within one week of disapproval, propose another Scheduler who meets the experience requirements stated above.

1.04 SCHEDULING SOFTWARE

BID DOCUMENTS SECTION 013213 - 2

JULY 14, 2025 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

“Decimal Places” setting. Finish Milestones shall be constrained with either a “fin-ish on or before” date or a “late finish” type constraint. No “Mandatory Finish” type constraints, no “Zero Free Float” constraints, no special hidden lag time be-tween activities or other “float Suppression” techniques will be permitted. A sched-ule milestone constraint extending beyond Contract time or less than Contract time will not be acceptable. Rather, CONTRACTOR shall show any unused contract time as float (slack time) available to the project, except as required by coordination with utility authorities.

1.05 PRE-CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULING CONFERENCE

A. CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR Scheduler shall attend a pre-construction scheduling conference with OWNER.

Scheduler shall cooperate with OWNER and shall make themselves available for on-site meet-ings to develop, monitor, maintain and update the schedule in a timely manner.

B. CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR Scheduler shall work with the OWNER to create a project schedule that proposes project work during the Marina off-season to allow for unimpeded traffic circulation and construction.

1.06 SUBMITTALS

A. Within seven calendar days after the effective date of the Notice to Proceed, CONTRACTOR shall submit to OWNER for review, a detailed Baseline Construc-tion Schedule setting forth all requirements for complete execution of the Work.

Include individual activities for the preparation of specific submittals, activities for owner review periods, activities for the procurement / fabrication period, installa-tion activities, any applicable start-up & testing activities, and all contract mile-stones. With the exception of submittals and fabrication /procurement activities, each work activity shall range in duration from 1 workday minimum to a 10 work-day maximum. The Scheduling system shall indicate all inter-relationships (logic ties) between the activities and shall be logically tied to all relevant milestones listed in Section 01 1216 Phasing of the Work. CONTRACTOR shall cost load the activities with a “budgeted cost” that totals up to the Contract award value. All monthly schedule updates and baseline schedules shall be dated and initialed by the Contractor.

BID DOCUMENTS SECTION 013213 - 3

JULY 14, 2025 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

C. CONTRACTOR shall allow for inclement weather in the Proposed Baseline Sched-ule by incorporating an activity titled “Rain Day Impact Allowance” as the last activity prior to the Substantial Completion Milestone. No other activities may be concurrent with it.

D. CONTRACTOR shall submit a color bar chart of all activities organized by Area (Location) and sorted by early start date in a graphically “left to right” manner. In addition, submit a Critical Path (Longest Path) color bar chart filter. Include the following column headings on the left hand side of both bar chart reports: activity ID, activity description, original duration, remaining duration, percent complete, start date, finish date, total float (slack time), and budgeted cost. CONTRACTOR shall also include an electronic copy of the Schedule in an acceptable format to the

OWNER.

E. Include a written schedule narrative sufficiently comprehensive to explain the basis of the CONTRACTOR'S approach to work. The written schedule narrative should include a paragraph of the project’s Critical Path, the anticipated crew sizes (by trade), any planned equipment needed, a discussion on any long lead procure-ment/fabrication items, and any site logistic challenges.

F. Seven calendar days after receipt of the OWNER'S review comments, CONTRACTOR shall revise and re-submit the Construction Schedule acceptable to OWNER. Once the Baseline Construction Schedule is approved, no changes will be allowed unless authorized by the OWNER.

G. Failure of CONTRACTOR to submit a Construction Schedule in full compliance with the Contract Documents will result in a delay in progress payment processing.

The Construction Schedule is to be used in evaluating progress and for monthly payment approval.

H. Subsequently with each Monthly Progress Payment Request, CONTRACTOR shall deliver to OWNER a Monthly Schedule Update reflecting Work progressed to the end of the Progress Payment Request period (set as the last day of the month).

Each such Monthly Schedule Update shall indicate actual progress to date in exe-cution of the Work, together with a projected schedule for completion of all the remaining Work. CONTRACTOR shall copy & re-name the schedule file each month, status the activities with actual start and/or finish dates, adjust remaining durations, add re-submittals (if applicable), calculate the schedule with a “data date” to the end of the pay period, and submit the required report to the OWNER.

Each Monthly Schedule Update shall be submitted con-currently with the Monthly Pay Application. In updating the Schedule, CONTRACTOR shall not modify Ac-tivity ID numbers, activity descriptions, original durations, logic, schedule calcula-tion rules/criteria, or the Activity Coding unless authorized by the OWNER. All monthly schedule updates and baseline schedules shall be dated and initialed by the Contractor.

1.07 FOUR-WEEK ROLLING SCHEDULE

A. At each Biweekly Progress Meeting, CONTRACTOR shall present a Four-Week Rolling Schedule in Bar Chart format. It shall show one (1) week of actual and three (3) weeks of forecasted progress. The Four-Week Rolling Schedule shall be used as a basis for discussing progress and work planned during the three (3) weeks.

1. The Four-Week Rolling Schedule shall be based on the most recent OWNER Accepted Monthly Schedule Update. It shall include weekly up-dates to all construction, submittal, fabrication and procurement, and sepa-rate work contract activities. CONTRACTOR shall ensure that it accurately reflects the current progress of the Work.

2. CONTRACTOR shall discuss at the Biweekly Progress meeting the actual dates and any variances to critical or near critical activities.

3. Upon request by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall provide the Four-Week Rolling Schedule in electronic format.

4. If the Four-Week Rolling Schedule indicates activities are behind schedule, CONTRACTOR shall provide a Recovery Schedule in accordance with Ar-ticle 1.08 below.

5. If the CONTRACTOR chooses to provide a Four-Week Rolling Schedule in a greater level of detail (by trade/subcontractor) outside of the monthly schedule database, then upon CONTRACTOR REQUEST and OWNER written approval, the CONTRACTOR may proceed as long as the detailed activities roll-up to the contractual monthly schedule updates. These de-tailed activities will need to be linked to the overall Substantial Completion date as to properly forecast whether the project is ahead or behind schedule during the biweekly Progress Meetings. The Four-Week Rolling Schedule must accurately reflect the work that is going on during the current week and must accurately reflect what will happen in the next three weeks.

1.08 RECOVERY SCHEDULES

A. If a Monthly Schedule Update indicates negative float greater than ten (10) days on a critical path as result of events not predicated by the General Conditions, CONTRACTOR shall prepare a Proposed Recovery Schedule demonstrating CONTRACTOR’S plan to regain the time lost. The Recovery Schedule shall be submitted either in advance of or concurrent with the Monthly Schedule Update and CONTRACTOR progress request. Both the Monthly Schedule Update and the

BID DOCUMENTS SECTION 013213 - 5

JULY 14, 2025 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

Proposed Recovery Schedule shall be based on the same percentages of completion and actual dates accepted by OWNER.

B. The Proposed Recovery Schedule shall be based on a copy of the Monthly Schedule Update for the calendar month during which the negative float first appears. The Proposed Recovery Schedule shall use a TIA (Time Impact Analysis) adjustment based on an up-to-date CPM.

C. The Proposed Recovery Schedule shall include a written narrative that identifies the causes of the negative float on the critical path and provides CONTRACTOR’S proposed corrective action to ensure timely completion of all Milestones and the Substantial Completion Date. CONTRACTOR’S corrective actions shall include but are not limited to increasing concurrent operations, increasing labor, adding multiple shifts in a 24-hour period, and adding overtime.

D. During any period of time when CONTRACTOR is found to be behind schedule by OWNER, the Monthly Schedule Update described above shall become a weekly requirement (at no additional cost to OWNER) to provide a greater degree of focus on the timely completion of the Work. These Updates shall be submitted to OWNER every Monday morning. When CONTRACTOR is deemed by OWNER to be back on schedule, CONTRACTOR may revert to submitting the schedule monthly.

E. CONTRACTOR’S progress payment may not be processed until OWNER accepts the Proposed Recovery Schedule. Following such an acceptance, the Proposed Re-covery Schedule will be known as the Recovery Schedule and future Work will be performed by CONTRACTOR in accordance with it.

1.09 FRAGNETS AND TIME EXTENSION REQUESTS

A. Float is not for exclusive use or benefit of either OWNER or CONTRACTOR but is an expiring resource available to both parties on a non-discriminatory basis. If required to meet specified Milestones, either party may utilize float. Adjustments to Milestones or Contract Time will only be authorized by Change Order and only to the extent the claimed adjustments exceed total float along the most critical path of the current Monthly Schedule Update in effect at the time of the claimed adjust-ments. The claimed adjustments to the Milestones and/or Contract Time must also cause the Substantial Completion Date to exceed that currently indicated in the Monthly Schedule Update.
