Where the term completion or similar terms are used in regards to a Milestone, it shall be construed to mean all portions of the Work in the indicated phase, area, and/or zone are complete and acceptable to OWNER. Where the term start or similar terms are used in the designation of a Milestone, it shall be construed to mean a portion of the Work in the indicated phase, area, and/or zone is required to be commenced.

2. A Proposed Baseline Schedule extending beyond the Milestones and/or Contract Time will not be acceptable.

3. Finish Milestones shall be constrained with Late Finish (Finish No Later Than) type constraints in accordance with the dates stipulated this section.

4. In the scheduling software, in the “Project Overview” menu, assign the “Project Must Finish By” date to match the Substantial Completion and Contract Completion Milestone dates stipulated in Contract Documents.

01 32 13 - 9

5. A Proposed Baseline Schedule indicating Work completed in less time than the Milestones and/or Contract Time will not be acceptable.

Rather, CONTRACTOR shall show any unused contract time as float.

6. Milestones shall be placed on a calendar with seven (7) days per week. No Holiday or non work-day restrictions are permitted on this calendar.

7. The following Milestone activities shall be included in the schedule:

a) Contract Award (Board Meeting)

b) Notice to Proceed

c) Mobilization on Site

d) Topping Out (for Owner ceremonial purposes)

e) Dry-In

f) Energize Electric

g) HVAC Start-Up

h) Substantial Completion

i) Final Completion

I. The Critical Path shall be clearly indicated on all schedules submitted. An activity is defined as critical when its Total Float is less than or equal to zero

(0) days.

J. CONTRACTOR shall allow for inclement weather in the Proposed Baseline Schedule 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. The duration of the Rain Day Impact Allowance activity will be based on Table #2 below, and will be calculated from the Notice to Proceed until the original date of Substantial Completion.

Table 2: Cumulative Calendar Days “Rain Day Impact Allowance”:

January 1 July 4 February 2 August 4 March 2 September 5 April 2 October 2 May 2 November 2 June 3 December 1

When inclement weather at the Project site impacts Critical Path activities, CONTRACTOR may provide the OWNER with a written request for a weather impact day describing the inclement weather delay on the Critical Path activities. The inclement weather delay must be clearly indicated by a 70% decrease in the field labor workforce hours on Critical Path activities

01 32 13 - 10 on the day in question as indicated by CONTRACTOR’S Daily reports from the day in question and the scheduled work days prior to the day in question.

Upon OWNER’S independent confirmation of the amount of rainfall and impact, OWNER will authorize CONTRACTOR to reduce the duration of the Rain Day Impact Allowance by one (1) day.

Inclement weather on non-scheduled workdays shall not be granted as weather impact days. If CONTRACTOR asks to work a specific weekend or holiday and gives OWNER advanced, written notification of critical path work to be performed and a substantial amount of precipitation occurs that prevents the work from being performed, then that day can be claimed as a weather impact day. If the effects of inclement weather from a non-scheduled work day carry forward to a scheduled work day and impacts the Critical Path as noted above, then the scheduled work day will be considered impacted by weather. Any unused rain day allowance at the end of the project will be shown as available float to the Substantial Completion Milestone. Excusable, non-compensable time extensions will be granted for inclement weather to Substantial Completion milestone only after the weather impact area affecting the critical path work has exhausted the allotted cumulative Rain Day Impact Allowance.

K. Cost loaded Activities:

1. Each activity included in the Proposed Baseline Schedule shall be assigned the cost CONTRACTOR estimates it will incur performing that activity. Each activity’s assigned cost will be inclusive of overhead and profit so CONTRACTOR’S total overhead and profit is distributed over all activities on a pro rata basis. The sum of the costs assigned to activities shall equal the total contract value. No activity costs shall be assigned to manufacturing or delivery activities unless approved by OWNER. If OWNER finds that the costs are front loaded and the distribution of costs is unreasonable, CONTRACTOR shall re-distribute the costs and resubmit the revised Schedule of Values within five (5) days for OWNER review.

2. CONTRACTOR shall cost load activities in the Proposed Baseline Schedule and allocate costs to related resource/cost accounts associated with each activity. The cost accounts shall match the CSI subsections listed in the Table of Contents of the Specifications. All cost-loaded activities shall roll-up to their designated CSI subsections and shall be the basis for the data reported in the Schedule of Values and Application for Payment.

3. Submit computer generated tabular reports using the scheduling software which will be the basis for the approved Schedule of Values.

The reports shall contain the following data for each activity:

Cost/Resource Account Number (by CSI subsection), Cost/Resource Account Description, Cost/Resource Account

01 32 13 - 11

Budget, Material Quantities and Unit Costs, Cumulative Quantities and Cost to Date, Material Quantities and Cost this Period, and Estimated Material Quantities and Cost at Completion. Total Material Quantities and Total Costs shall be organized and totaled by CSI subsection.

4. Submit a Cost Flow Histogram.

L. CONTRACTOR shall submit computer generated reports and plots with the Proposed Baseline Schedule submittal package. Format shall display the following columns: Activity ID, Activity Description, Original Duration, Remaining Duration, Percent Complete, Early Start, Early Finish, Late Start, Late Finish, and Total Float. Unless otherwise noted, bar charts and reports shall be on 8 ½ x 11 paper and bound.

1. Bar charts shall be generated separately for:

a. Milestones only.

b. All activities sorted by Early Start date and organized by Project, Area, Stage, & Substage. (The network shall show continuous flow of all activities from left to right).

c. All activities sorted by Responsibility.

d. Summary level of all activities sorted by craft/trade and area.

2. Tabular Reports:

a. Total Float sorted low to high

b. Predecessors and Successors sorted by Activity ID.

3. Cost Flow Histogram

a. Using the costs assigned to each activity, develop a Histogram that projects the estimated invoice amounts by month for the Project duration. The histogram shall be produced from the scheduling software on 11x17 paper (landscape mode). It shall contain both a monthly bar histogram and a cumulative cost curve on the same graph.

The Total Costs shall be based on the Early Dates option.

4. Man Power Histogram

a. Submit a planned man-power graphic bar histogram produced from the scheduling software on 11x17 paper (landscape mode) that displays total man-hours based on Early Dates.

01 32 13 - 12

Show both a weekly bar histogram and a cumulative curve on same graph. Upon Owner request, provide manpower broken down by trade.

5. Provide a written narrative as required.

6. Electronic data: Provide electronic back-up of the Proposed Baseline Schedule.

7. Plots: Produce a color bar chart on D-size paper (24 x 36 inches) organized (at a minimum) by project, area, stage, & substage. Plot size may be produced on larger E1 sheets (30 x 42 inches) with approval from the Owner for special exceptions.

M. OWNER will notify CONTRACTOR of any adjustments that are required for the Proposed Baseline Schedule to be accepted. CONTRACTOR shall perform any required adjustments to the Proposed Baseline Schedule and resubmit it for acceptance certifying in writing that all information contained therein complies with the Contract Documents. OWNER will review the Proposed Baseline Schedule for accuracy, reasonableness, and conformance with the Contract Documents and shall provide comments within ten (10) working days of receipt. Within five (5) working days after receiving OWNER comments, CONTRACTOR shall both incorporate changes to address OWNER concerns and resubmit the Proposed Baseline Schedule for OWNER review. This process will continue until the Proposed Baseline Schedule is accepted as the Baseline Schedule. Once accepted by OWNER, the Baseline Schedule will be the basis upon which CONTRACTOR shall prepare updates that record and report actual performance and progress. The accepted Baseline Schedule and subsequent Monthly Updates shall be the basis for consideration and analysis of requests for time extensions and CONTRACTOR progress payments.

N. OWNER acceptance of the Baseline Schedule or CONTRACTOR’S failure to identify and/or include any element of the Contract, shall not release CONTRACTOR’S obligation to complete all required Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

3.05 REQUIREMENTS FOR MONTHLY/WEEKLY SCHEDULE UPDATING

A. Once the Baseline Schedule is accepted by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall submit Monthly Schedule Updates beginning with month No. 1. The current month’s schedule update cannot be accepted until the previous Monthly Schedule Update has been accepted by OWNER.

01 32 13 - 13

B. Monthly Schedule Update Format

1. Initially, the contractor shall status a current Monthly Schedule Update with actual Work progress only. No logic ties shall be modified. Status all Actual Start and Finish dates, adjust Remaining Durations where needed, and update Percent Completion of cost and resource loaded activities. No activity Original Durations or Logic shall be changed unless authorized by OWNER. No new activities shall be added unless authorized by the OWNER.

2. Once the schedule is updated in, CONTRACTOR shall print (and submit with Monthly Schedule Update) a report of “out-of-sequence” logic that results from the updating process. CONTRACTOR shall then correct all “out-of-sequence” logic to reflect CONTRACTOR’S actual Work sequence. If CONTRACTOR chooses to modify logic or add activities (other than out-of-sequence corrections), it shall be done in accordance with section.

3. During construction, CONTRACTOR may desire to break down specific activities into greater detail. If greater detail is necessary, then CONTRACTOR shall identify expanded activities such that the Baseline Schedule activities that the expanded activities originated from are readily apparent. CONTRACTOR shall not allow the aggregate duration of the expanded activities to exceed the duration assigned to the Baseline Schedule activity unless permitted by OWNER in writing.

4. The Data Date for the Monthly Schedule Updates shall be the last day of the month. At a minimum, three (3) days prior to the submission of the Monthly Schedule Update, CONTRACTOR shall meet in person with OWNER to present the proposed Percentages of Completion and Actual Start and Actual Finish dates. Once percentages of completion and actual dates have been agreed to, they shall be the basis of the Monthly Schedule Update.

5. CONTRACTOR shall submit a Manpower Histogram that overlays a planned curve from the Baseline Schedule and a planned curve from the current Monthly Schedule Update.

7. Written Narrative Report: CONTRACTOR shall include a written report to explain the Monthly Schedule Update. The narrative shall, at a minimum include the following headings with appropriate discussions of each topic:

a. Introduction

b. A Summary of Work which was on-going This Pay Period

01 32 13 - 14

c. Problem Areas and Proposed Solutions

d. Critical Path

e. Current and Anticipated Delays

f. Coordination of Work with Others

g. Milestone Status

8. In updating the Schedule, CONTRACTOR shall not modify Activity ID numbers, schedule calculation rules/criteria, or the Activity Coding Structure required.

9. Submit bar charts, tabular reports, a cost flow histogram, man-power histogram, written narrative, electronic data, and any plots.

10. Submit a cost-loaded report (progressed monthly) produced from the scheduling software that displays all of the activities organized by the CSI subsection cost/resource accounts.

C. Four-Week Rolling Schedule: At each Weekly Progress Meeting, CONTRACTOR shall present a Four-Week Rolling Schedule in Bar Chart format. It shall show one (1) week of actual, current week and two (2) weeks of forecasted progress. The Four-Week Rolling Schedule shall be used as a basis for discussing progress and work planned during the two (2) weeks.

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

2. CONTRACTOR shall discuss 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.

3.06 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

01 32 13 - 15

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 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.

C. The Proposed Recovery Schedule shall include a 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 shall become a weekly requirement 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 Recovery Schedule will be known as the Recovery Schedule and future Work will be performed by CONTRACTOR in accordance with it.

3.07 FRAGNETS & 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 and/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 adjustments. 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. CONTRACTOR claimed adjustments to an existing negative float path will not receive consideration until the activity with the highest negative float is driven even further negative.

Claimed adjustments to the Milestones and/or Contract Time will be administered in conjunction with those set forth in the General Conditions.

01 32 13 - 16

B. Pursuant to the float sharing requirements of this Section, the use of float suppression techniques such as preferential sequencing or logic, special lead / lag logic restraints, and extended activity times or durations are prohibited. The use of float time disclosed or implied by the use of alternate float suppression techniques shall be proportionally shared to benefit OWNER and CONTRACTOR. The use of any technique solely for the purpose of suppressing float will result in OWNER rejection of the submitted Monthly Schedule Update.

C. In the event CONTRACTOR believes the Project has suffered an adverse impact arising from events predicated by Articles of the General Conditions, CONTRACTOR may prepare a Time Extension Request by submitting a Schedule Fragnet and a written narrative outlining the detail of the impact.

A Schedule Fragnet must demonstrate a critical path delay. Such a delay must adversely impact the Substantial Completion Date for CONTRACTOR to receive a time extension. To demonstrate such an impact successfully, CONTRACTOR shall prepare a Schedule Fragnet based on a copy of OWNER accepted Monthly Schedule Update for the calendar month during which the adverse impact occurred.
