Allowance Bid items contained in the Bid form may be increased without a Change Order to increase.

B. Lump Sum Bid Items

1. All Work Required by the Contract Documents

a. The sum allowed for Bid Item No. 1 as set forth in the Bid Form includes all Work for and in connection with construction of the Contract in its entirety, including but not limited to all costs associated with dust control mitigation measures, permit fees and other related costs to ensure compliance with the Board of Health Air Pollution Control Regulations.

b. Payment for Work under this Bid item will be based on the breakdown of costs for each scheduled activity in the Construction Schedule and the percentage of completion for each activity in accordance with the Contract Documents.

c. Preparing the Construction Progress Schedule shall be a separate activity on the Construction Schedule and shall also be a separate activity on the Schedule of Values. Payment for the Construction Progress Schedule is not in addition to, but is incidental to the other lump-sum items included in the Work.

d. Payment for preparing the CPM Construction Schedule in accordance with Section 01 32 21 - CPM Construction Schedule is made under Bid Item No. 1.

The bid item amount shall be equal to or less than two percent (2%) of the Bid Item. Preparing the CPM Construction Schedule shall also be a separate activity on the CPM Construction Schedule and be a separate item in the Schedule of Valves.

1) Contractor may submit application for the full amount of this Bid Item if the CPM Schedule is accepted by Engineer within 45 days after issuance of Notice to Proceed.

2) Because the CPM Construction Schedule has less value to Owner and Contractor as time passes, an amount of $ 0 per day will be deducted from the Contract Price for each day after 45 days following Notice to Proceed that the CPM Construction Schedule has not been accepted by Engineer.

3) Deductions for overdue schedule submittal will cease to accumulate when the earliest of either of the following items occurs.

a) Engineer accepts the CPM Construction Schedule.

b) The number of accumulated deductions equals two percent

(2%) of the applicable Bid Item.

c) The Work is accepted as Substantially Complete.

SOLDIER CANYON WATER LINE PROJECT PAGE 01 20 00 - 2

4) Both Owner and Contractor agree that deductions for delayed submittal of an acceptable CPM Construction Schedule are not penalties but reflect the diminishing value of the delayed submittal.

e. Payment for mobilization, as defined in Section 01 71 00 – Mobilization, as part of the lump sum price named in the Bid Schedule shall equal six percent (6.0%) of the total lump sum price bid for the Work. The payment for mobilization is not in addition to, but is part of the lump sum price for the Work. Include a separate activity for mobilization in the Construction Schedule and in the Schedule of Values. This activity shall include all principal items and all submittals specified in Section 01 71 00 – Mobilization, as applicable. The remaining lump sum, except as otherwise required by this Agreement, shall be appropriately distributed among the remaining work activities that make up the total lump sum price. Payment for mobilization will be approved in accordance with the status of completion of each mobilization component as defined in the approved mobilization plan required in Section 01 71 00; except that no payment for mobilization will be approved until Items 1, 2, 8, 9, 10, and 11 of paragraph 3.1.A of Section 01 71 00 are complete. No more than one-half of the payment for mobilization will be paid until all submittals required by paragraph 3.2 of Section 01 71 00 have been approved by Engineer.

f. Payment for each update of the CPM Construction Schedule accepted by Engineer within the timeframes and as defined in Section 01 32 21– CPM Construction Schedule, as part of the lump sum price named in the Bid Schedule under Bid Item No. 1 shall be equal to $ 1,000. The payments for CPM Construction Schedule updates are not in addition to, but are part of the lump sum price of the Work and represents the direct and indirect value to Contractor and Owner from having an updated schedule. However, the payments for the CPM Schedule updates are separate from the payment for the CPM Construction Schedule described in paragraph 1.10.C of this Section.

Separate monthly submittals for CPM Construction Schedule Updates, each valued at $ 1,000, shall be included in the CPM Construction Schedule and in the Schedule of Values. The remaining lump sum price, except as otherwise required by this Contract, shall be appropriately distributed among the remaining work activities that make up the total lump sum price. Beginning with the first payment following the first update, Contractor may request the payment if Engineer has accepted the update. When a monthly update is not accepted by the time of submission of the succeeding Application for Payment, the [$5,000] for that monthly update will not be earned by Contractor and an amount equal to $ 1,000 shall be deducted from the Contract Price. Failure to update the CPM Construction Schedule properly within this period means no value was received and therefore no payment is due for that update. Any deducts from the Contract Price for not submitting an acceptable CPM Construction Schedule update shall not be considered a penalty but reflects the loss of value to Owner.

g. Payment for each approved Operations & Maintenance (O & M) Manual, as defined in Section 01 33 20 – Contractor Submittals, as part of the total lump sum price named in the Bid Schedule shall equal 10% of the value of the piece of equipment or group of like-kind pieces of equipment that it represents. The payment for each O & M Manual is not in addition to but is part of the lump sum price for the Work. A separate activity for each O & M Manual shall be

SOLDIER CANYON WATER LINE PROJECT PAGE 01 20 00 - 3

included in the Construction Schedule and in the Schedule of Values. The remaining lump sum price, except as otherwise required by this Contract, shall be appropriately distributed among the remaining work activities that make up the total lump sum price.
