About this file

This is Amendment A002 to Solicitation No. 69056725B000015 for Project WA NP OLYM 115(1), Repair Storm Damage on Mora Road, issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Department of Transportation on January 21, 2026. The amendment revises the original solicitation dated December 18, 2025, with an effective date of January 21, 2026, and does not extend the offer receipt deadline.

The amendment implements significant revisions across multiple sections of the Special Contract Requirements, including modifications to abbreviations, definitions, electronic documentation procedures, measurement and payment protocols, contractor quality control processes, and construction scheduling requirements. Key changes require contractors to use Masterworks, the Government's web-based system, to prepare Inspector's Daily Records of Construction Operations and measurement notes (pay notes and field measurement documentation), and to obtain accounts and complete mandatory training. The amendment adds new definitions including "Masterworks," "CDR" (Contractor's Daily Record), and water-related terms (MHHW, MLLW, OHWM, WSE), and specifies decimal accuracy standards for payment based on awarded unit prices. Payment procedures are revised to require submission of measurement notes within 24 hours of work completion, with Government receiving reports developed from quantities in Masterworks. Section 155 requirements emphasize Critical Path Method scheduling with specific qualification standards for schedule managers, monthly submittal deadlines within seven calendar days of progress estimate closing dates, and lookahead schedules. Contractor quality control plans must address eleven identified work features with specified personnel qualifications and submission timelines. The contractor must submit Contractor's Daily Records using Masterworks with complete labor, equipment, and subcontractor data within 24 hours of work performance, certified by personnel with responsibility for the inspection system and signature authority.

Section 155. — SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION

CONTRACTS

06 OCT 2025(1)– FP-24

Delete this Section and substitute the following:

Description

155.01 This work consists of scheduling, monitoring, and reporting of all construction activities.

Follow the requirements of FAR Clause 52.236-15, Schedules for Construction Contracts.

This work also includes preparing CDRs using Masterworks.

155.02 Definitions.

(a) Baseline Schedule. The initial schedule showing the order in which the Contractor proposes to perform the work, and the dates on which the Contractor contemplates starting and completing the contract work.

(b) Critical Activity. An activity whose duration, if increased, will increase the time required to complete the project unless a schedule adjustment is made. These activities are activities on a schedule’s critical path.

(c) Critical Path. The longest sequence of activities in the schedule that determines the projects duration.

(d) Critical Path Method (CPM) Schedule. A computer-generated time-scaled logic diagram showing: the sequence in which the contractor plans to perform the work; the interdependence of all activities and milestones; the work completed through the data date; and the remaining work necessary to complete the project.

(e) Data Date. The status reporting date upon which schedule updates (e.g., addition or deletion of activities, revised logic, updates to percent complete and remaining durations) are made. Scheduling software uses the data date to base its network calculations and is typically shown on the schedule as a vertical line separating the completed (as-built) work and scheduled (as-planned) work.

(f) Gantt Chart. A printout of the CPM schedule with columns on the left hand side of the page identifying activity ID, activity name/description, original duration, remaining duration, percent complete, start date, finish date, total float, and predecessors/successors along with horizontal bars on the right hand side of the page displaying both completed work activities and the planned work activities at any given point of time.

(g) Schedule Narrative. A written narrative describing how the contractor plans to organize and execute the work described in the contract and the rationale and assumptions that went into

E-38 DIVISION 150

Project: WA NP OLYM 115(1), Repair Storm Damage on Mora Road developing the schedule including labor, equipment, and materials to be used, anticipated production rates, and work calendars.

(h) Schedule Submittal. A submittal that includes the schedule, schedule narrative, and submittal log. A schedule submittal is required for the baseline schedule and each schedule update.

(i) Schedule Update. An update to the previous approved schedule submittal. A schedule update is provided on a monthly basis (or sooner if necessary) showing the completed work and the remaining work necessary to complete the project.

(j) Submittal Log. A log that tracks status of contract submittals.

Construction Requirements

155.03 General. Do not begin work associated with Section 151 Mobilization and limit construction activities according to Subsection 108.01 until the baseline schedule submittal is accepted by the CO.

Schedule approval does not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to schedule the work in a practicable manner that meets the contract requirements. Failure to include elements of work in the schedule submittal required for performance of the contract, even if approved in a previous submittal, does not excuse the Contractor from being responsible for completion of all specified work by the contract’s fixed completion date.

The CO may reject any schedule submittal with a projected completion date past the contract’s fixed completion date. Approval of a schedule submittal with a projected completion date past the contract’s fixed completion date does not excuse the Contractor from being responsible for completing the work by the contract’s fixed completion date.

When a schedule is “Accepted as Noted”, address such comments when preparing resubmittals or future schedule submittals, when appropriate.

Failure to receive approval of a prior schedule submittal does not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to meet the requirement to provide each specified schedule update submittal.

155.04 Schedule Manager and Scheduling Software.

(a) Qualifications. Provide a schedule manager with a minimum of 5 years of construction scheduling experience. To be qualified, experience must demonstrate the person has supported active construction projects by preparing, evaluating, and actively managing construction schedules during 3 of the last 5 years including:

(1) Projects of similar size and scheduling complexity; and

(2) At least two highway or bridge type construction projects.

E-39 DIVISION 150

Project: WA NP OLYM 115(1), Repair Storm Damage on Mora Road

(1) The name and qualifications of the schedule manager for approval. Provide ONLY information that is applicable to the qualifications specified in Subsection 155.04(a).

Documents that include unrelated or non-relevant information will not be accepted.

(2) The name of the scheduling software to be used along with version number (if any).

Do not designate the project superintendent, QC manager, foreman, or traffic control supervisor as the schedule manager.

155.05 Preliminary Work Plan. No preliminary work plan is required.

155.06 Schedule Submittal. The Schedule Submittal includes the Schedule, Schedule Narrative, Submittal Log, and Certification.

(a) Due date. The baseline schedule submittal is due within 25 calendar days of Contract Award.

Monthly schedule submittals are due within 7 calendar days following the closing date for progress estimates established in accordance with Subsection 109.08.

Resubmittal of rejected schedule submittals are due within 3 calendar days of the rejected date unless otherwise approved by the CO.

When no schedule meeting is held, the schedule (re)submittals will be approved or rejected within 14 calendar days of receipt. When a schedule meeting is held, the schedule submittal with updates resulting from the meeting will be approved or rejected within 7 calendar days of receipt.

(b) Prepare schedule submittals according to Subsection 104.06. Include the following:

(1) Title page with contract information; Contractor name; current fixed completion date;

date of submittal; name of submittal; progress estimate number; submittal number, and contract number.

(2) Native schedule file. An electronic copy of the schedule’s native file that is fully compatible with Bentley Synchro Pro Scheduler (free 2D Version). The native file must be provided in .xml format and/or be capable of being imported into Synchro using Synchro’s import feature without the need of installing other scheduling software on the computer.
