Engineer not less than fifteen (15) work days in advance of the proposed date of starting work in each specific area of project site or portion thereof. Arrange such sequence dates to ensure accomplishment of this work in successive sequences mutually agreeable to Medical Center

Director, Resident Engineer and Contractor. Any delay caused by

Contractor’s failure to schedule performance of any work in advance with the Resident Engineer shall not be cause for the Contractor to claim additional compensation or additional time for performance of the work.

1. After notification of contract award and not later than seven (7) days prior to Notice to Proceed and start of work, Contractor shall submit a sequencing plan to the Resident Engineer for the entire work of the project. Such sequencing plan shall define sequencing for each area of work and transitioning of work from one area to the follow-on area so as to result in continued performance of work for the duration of the project.

2. General sequencing of work of the project and constraints associated are indicated in the contract documents. Neither the Government nor

Architect-Engineer is responsible for the orderly progression required to achieve execution of the work within the contract performance period. Contractor shall utilize the information provided as a basis for establishing the orderly progression of the work to complete the project within the contract time and/or to complete portions of the project within designated time frames. Subject to approval by the Resident Engineer and subject to compliance with constraints indicated, Contractor may alter the general sequencing indicated in the contract drawings in part or in whole to facilitate more orderly and timely completion of the work, minimize disruptions to ongoing Medical Center operations or as to otherwise provide benefit to the Government for the execution and completion of the work of the project. Alternative sequencing of the work by the

Contractor shall not result in extending the contract performance period unless approved in writing by the Contracting Officer.

Contractor’s sequencing plan shall be the basis for the Contractor’s detailed construction schedule.

3. For each area of work and for the overall project, Contractor’s sequencing plan shall be coordinated with Contractor’s construction schedule, need for submittal approvals, material orders and deliveries, and other activities that are critical to the timing for the completion of the project within the contract time.

4. Completion Priority: Completion of certain portions of the project are time sensitive and Contractor shall sequence the work of the project accordingly including performance of temporary or new

01 00 00-14 construction during hours other than normal work hours, when Medical

Center operations are least disrupted. Such portions of the project, in no specific order of priority, include:

Buildings.

c. Work in and around parking serving existing Buildings.

d. Utility or infrastructure disruptions and/or connections/disconnections to existing Buildings.

e. Start up and completion of Campus Demolition & Paving – North.

5. Completion of the entire work for this contract award is time sensitive while being dependent in part on completion of on-going work. The sequencing diagrams in the contract drawings indicate the

Governments expected duration for completion of work in each area once work in each area is started and work flow can be maintained to complete the work in the area. It is the Government’s intent and expectation, subject to Contractor’s conformance with constraints defined, that the Contractor schedule construction resources and sequence work to allow the work to flow from one area to the next for the entire duration of the project and without delay or interruption.

H. Adjacent buildings, Medical Center campus and areas of adjacent properties will be occupied to conduct operations during performance of work.

1. Contractor shall take all measures and provide all means and material necessary for protecting existing buildings, areas and property adjacent to areas of construction, including but not limited to against noise, dust and debris, so that buildings and areas to be used in the Medical Centers operations or on adjacent property will not be hindered.
