3.6 DESIGN SUBMITTALS

3.6.1 DELIVERY: Deliver two (2) hard copies of each submittal and one (1) digital copy via DoD SAFE containing each drawing sheet in PDF file format directly to the CO, along with AF Form 3000. For uploading to DoD SAFE, the Contractor must request an upload link from the CO and then upload the files using the details in the subsequent email from DoD SAFE. For the final design submittal (As-Builts in most cases), the contractor is to provide, in addition to the hard copies and digital copies via DoD SAFE, containing the PDF file as well as the associated CAD files in AutoCAD (Release 2020) .dwg file format. Hard copy submittals must be delivered to:

14th Contracting Squadron 495 Harpe Blvd, Suite 293 Columbus, MS 39710

3.6.2 SUBMITALS AT INTERMEDIATE STAGES OF DESIGN COMPLETION: To facilitate review and feedback throughout the design process, designs are submitted at various stages of completion as follows:

1) 35% DESIGN SUBMITTAL: Contractor must submit 35% design documents within 14 days after Notice to Proceed (NTP). The 35% design must include complete and thorough detailing to leave no question as to how demolition and construction is intended. All design documents must be clearly annotated (in both title block and revision block of drawings) with “35% REVIEW SET” and the date.

2) 65% DESIGN SUBMITTAL: Contractor must submit 65% design documents within 14 days after receipt of the “Approved” 35% design. The 65% design must include complete and thorough detailing to leave no question as to how demolition and construction is intended. All design documents must be clearly annotated (in both title block and revision block of drawings) with “65% REVIEW SET” and the date.

3) 95% DESIGN SUBMITTAL: Contractor must submit 95% design documents within 07 days after receipt of the “Approved” 65% design. The 95% design (essentially complete design and drawings, pending review and acceptance by Government as the 100% APPROVED CONSTRUCTION SET) must include complete and thorough detailing to leave no question as to how assembly is intended. All design documents must be clearly annotated (in both title block and revision block of drawings) with “95% REVIEW SET” and the date.

4) 100% DESIGN/APPROVED CONSTRUCTION SET: Contractor must submit the 100% DESIGN APPROVED CONSTRUCTION SET within 07 days after Contractor receipt of the “Approved” 95% design. The construction set must incorporate and/or address any Government comments on the 95% design and should leave no question to how demolition and construction will be done. If professionally stamped and sealed drawings are required for this project (paragraph 3.2), the approved construction set must include all stamped drawings. All final design documents must be clearly annotated (in both title block and revision block of drawings) with “APPROVED CONSTRUCTION SET” and the date.

5) For each holiday or extraordinary event in a submittal period, increase the required days for submittal by one day for each day in the event. Deliver no submittals within (before or after): one week of Thanksgiving; two weeks of Christmas; or one week of New Year’s Day. Extraordinary Events include: unscheduled holidays for base personnel; base-wide training exercises; etc. The Government may prohibit work during such events.

3.6.3 PARTIAL SUBMISSIONS: Partial submissions normally will not be accepted. However, under some circumstances, to expedite project execution, the Government may accept design/shop drawings or material submittals for major elements or long-lead-time equipment for review and approvals prior to 95% design submittal. Government approval of such items does not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility to ensure a complete, constructible, code-compliant design.

3.6.4 CONSTRUCTION PRIOR TO 100% DESIGN: Construction may not commence until Government approves the 100% design. Exception: To expedite contract completion, Contractor may petition CO for an Interim Notice to Proceed with specific elements of construction. Government review does not constitute approval or acceptance of any variations from this SOW, the Contractor’s Proposal, or the Contract unless authorized in writing by the CO. The Interim Notice to Proceed, if exercised, will in no way mitigate the responsibility of the Contractor to provide a complete, constructible, code-compliant design.

All drawings, specifications, design analyses and other project materials become the property of the Government.

3.7 DESIGN REVIEWS

3.7.1 DESIGN PHASE REVIEWS: Government review of each XX% design submittal (where XX = 95 or 100 as required per 3.6.2) will require up to fourteen (14) days after Government receipt. The Government will determine the sufficiency of each XX% design submittal as follows:

1) Approved as Submitted. If design is sufficient to proceed without correction to the next phase submittal, one (1) copy of AF FORM 3000 marked "Approved" will be returned to the Contractor.

Contractor must advance to the next stage design submittal.

2) Approved - Except as Noted. Design submittals that have only minor errors or deficiencies will be marked in red to indicate necessary corrections. Marked materials, along with one (1) copy of AF FORM 3000 indicating "Approved - Except as Noted" will be returned to the Contractor.

Contractor must revise the design documents, making the necessary corrections, and advance to the next stage design submittal.

3) Disapproved. Design submittals that are incomplete or require more than minor corrections will be marked in red to indicate necessary corrections. Marked materials, along with one (1) copy of AF FORM 3000 marked “Disapproved” will be returned to the Contractor. Contractor must revise the design documents, making the necessary corrections, and re-submit as the current stage “XX% Design – 2nd (or subsequent) Submittal”.

4) Disapproved – Major Deficiency. Examples include, but are not limited to, design submittals that fall significantly short of indicated level of completion, grossly deviate from or misinterpret the SOW, or contain errors of a nature or quantity that indicate failure of Contractor to review submittals for completeness, correctness, and coordination between trades. For such submittals, the Government will not complete a comprehensive review or provide an exhaustive list of needed corrections. Rather, one (1) copy of AF FORM 3000 marked “Disapproved – Major Deficiency” along with general reason(s) for disapproval will be returned to the contractor. The CO will issue a written warning to the Contractor that any subsequent grossly incorrect/incomplete submittals constitute evidence of inability to complete the project and may result in declaring the Contractor “In Default.” Contractor must correct deficiencies and resubmit as current stage “XX% Design – 2nd (or subsequent) Submittal”.

3.7.2 100% DESIGN REVIEW: The Government will have fourteen (14) days to verify that all review comments have been addressed and no unapproved changes have been made. Upon Government approval of the 100% design documents, the Contractor may begin construction.

3.7.3 IMPACT OF REVIEW ON PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: Contract completion time includes time for Government review of drawings, specifications, and material submittals. Unless otherwise noted, the Government will use no more than 14 calendar days for review of each design submittal and each subsequent re-submittal of “Disapproved” submittals (paragraph 3.7.1, c or d). There will be no increase in the period of performance for review of re-submittals.

3.7.4 RESPONSE TO REVIEW COMMENTS: The Contractor is required to respond to all review comments and submit their annotated comments as a design analysis appendix in the subsequent design submittal. All comments must either be accepted and incorporated into the next design submittal or satisfactorily rebutted.

3.7.5 DESIGN ACCOUNTABILITY: The Contractor is solely responsible for accurately designing and constructing everything necessary to provide a fully functional product. Government approval of any design or design-related submittal does not waive or remove full liability from the Contractor to provide a design, facility, or final product that meets the intent of this SOW, performs as intended, and adheres to all applicable codes and standards.

3.8 CONFERENCES

3.8.1 PRECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE: A Preconstruction Conference (Pre-Con) will be held at the Contracting Office as indicated.

3.8.2 COORDINATION/REVIEW CONFERENCES: Coordination/review conferences may be held from time to time as required. The Contractor may request such conferences when it is deemed necessary by both parties to clarify the work or expedite the preparation of plans, specifications or construction.

3.8.3 REVIEW/CONFERENCE MINUTES: The Contractor will be responsible for making memoranda of record of any conversations and minutes of any meeting with Government personnel concerning this project and forward one copy of these memoranda/minutes to each party concerned and one copy to the Contracting Officer within seven (7) days. The final version of the meeting minutes will be approved and filed at the CO’s discretion. Each copy will be numbered consecutively and chronologically.

3.8.4 MEETING LOCATIONS: Meetings will be held in person at Columbus Air Force Base. Contractor transportation costs for attending all conferences/reviews and meetings must be included in the Contractor’s Proposal. There will be no teleconferences unless permitted otherwise by the Contracting Officer.

End of Design Requirements

ADMINISTRATION OF CONSTRUCTION

4.1 PERFORMANCE CAPABILITIES

4.1.1 One week prior to the start of work under this contract, Contractor must submit in writing to the CO for review and possible approval the names and credentials of Contractor Project Manager, Contractor Site Superintendent, and Quality Control Manager. Subsequent proposed changes of approved personnel must be submitted in writing to and receive prior approval from the CO before working on the project.

Each of these personnel may upon CO approval hold additional onsite duties which must not diminish their required performance. Contractor must demonstrate to the Government’s satisfaction that proposed personnel exceed education, technical and experience levels of personnel described in this Contract including the following:

1) Contractor Project Manager (CPM) - Provide management of the prime contract to include subcontract purchasing and administration, review of material submittals and shop drawings. CPM must have full authority to develop cost proposals, negotiate with Government and subcontractors, sign awards and modifications, supervise project superintendents, attend weekly CO/CE/PM Contractor status meetings as well as pre-performance site visits, pre-final and final inspections.

The CPM must have a minimum of 5 years previous experience as primary contract manager or equivalent experience as a primary estimator and negotiator with a contracting firm engaged in similar multi-discipline commercial construction projects. CPM must also have not less than 5 years’ experience managing subcontractors.

2) Contractor Site Superintendent (CSS) - Provide on-site construction superintendent(s) to oversee all work under this contract. Site supervision must be daily (constant throughout each day) and includes submission of detailed weekly progress reports, scheduling and coordination of subcontractors and material suppliers, and attendance at all construction progress meetings, CO site visits, and pre-final and final inspections. Superintendents must have a minimum of 5 years previous experience as a project superintendent (exclusive of time employed as a tradesman or working foreman) for a general contracting firm overseeing one or more multi-discipline commercial construction projects. The superintendent must be available within 15 minutes during all normal working hours, except for such incidental errands as required by his duties. The superintendent must be responsible for the proper coordination and timeliness of the work, and for the proper workmanship of all trades; therefore, his absence from the project site without a suitable substitute Contractor representative must be considered as damaging to the Government.

3) Quality Control Manager (QCM) - Provide quality control management for the project. QCM must continually (constant throughout each day) ensure full compliance with all safety requirements, verification that work and materials in place and stored on site are in accordance with the approved construction documents, shop drawings and material submittals. QCM must submit daily status reports recording activities at each project site, prepare and coordinate material submittal sheets and shop drawing submittals, schedule and coordinate testing procedures, prepare quality control reports for construction progress and other required meetings, and attend all pre-final and final inspections. QCM must have a minimum of five years’ experience in Quality Control Management of multidiscipline construction projects.

4.1.2 Contractor must have additional personnel including management, technical, service, labor or subcontractor, available as necessary to fulfill all construction contract requirements.
