EXISTING VESSEL INFORMATIONAL DRAWINGS

Existing vessel informational drawings are available from the Chief Engineer, and should be requested in writing if required. It should be understood that the vessel has been in service for a number of years and had a number of conversions; therefore, interested bidders should be cautioned that the accuracy of the existing vessel drawings cannot be verified, and bidders should be specific about what information they are seeking from the existing drawings. Requested drawings will be forward to all interested bidders upon request. Drawings will be provided in electronic format when available. The OWNER does not warrant the accuracy of these plans and requires the CONTRACTOR to verify by physical ship check any and all of the existing plans prior to submitting their bid.

Approvals; Recommendations; and the Contractor’s Detailed Contract Estimate.

INSPECTIONS

GENERAL

All materials and workmanship shall be subject to inspection by the COR, ABS, the USCG and other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction. All inspection and observation of tests by the COR will be performed in such a manner as not to unnecessarily delay the contract work.

The COR shall promptly approve all work and material conforming to the requirements of this Specification and shall promptly reject all work and materials, which do not conform. Such rejected work or material shall be satisfactorily corrected.

SCHEDULING & ATTENDANCE

The CONTRACTOR is responsible for scheduling and presenting all completed work for Acceptance Inspections and for giving written ADEQUATE NOTICE of 48 HOURS to the COR and other required inspection agencies that such work is complete, has been passed by the CONTRACTOR QA, and is ready for such inspection. Inspections shall, when possible, be scheduled and accomplished during normal workdays on the CONTRACTOR day shift.

The COR will make every effort to maintain communications with the parties involved and to report to the inspection site per agreed schedule. If the COR is unable to keep the schedule, he shall notify the CONTRACTOR as soon as possible and reschedule for a mutually agreeable time. Failure of the COR to attend an inspection does not constitute an acceptance of the work. Inspections by ABS, the Coast Guard or other agency do not eliminate these requirements for inspection and acceptance by the COR.

Work presented for inspection shall be complete in all respects, clean, free of debris, scrap, lines, welding wire ends and all temporary gear. Reasonable accommodations shall have been made for access, lighting, and fresh air supply in advance of the inspection party.

COVERINGS

Prior to the application/installation of paint, deck covering, insulation, sheathing, joiner work, ceilings, etc., all structure and weld that is to be covered will be given final inspection and will be signed off on by the COR. It must

ABS 5 year Cargo Gear inspection and repairs, inspection and OEM certification of the Ships aft Cargo Crane be clearly understood by the CONTRACTOR that the COR has the right and option to require removal of any or all coverings for inspection in areas that have not been previously inspected and passed. This requirement makes it essential that weekend and night shift foremen, for both CONTRACTOR and Subcontractors, be in close communication with the QA Department and Project Manager.

RE-INSPECTIONS

Any welding, burning, heat shrinking, etc. which is performed as rework, repair, or on change orders after an inspection has been completed, may require (at the COR's option) the removal of any or all coverings for re-inspection of plate, welds, etc. This requirement will further emphasize the necessity of a formal QA Inspection process and the necessity for close communications between CONTRACTOR and COR. An initial inspection in no way negates the requirement for re-inspection if an area is reworked in any manner.

COMPARTMENT COMPLETIONS

Living spaces, workspaces and control/machinery spaces shall be inspected and certified complete by the COR and the CONTRACTOR representative. A compartment shall not be considered accepted until the inspection is complete, deficiencies are corrected, and the COR and CONTRACTOR have signed off on the space. At this time, so far as is possible, the compartment shall be secured and no further work shall be conducted within the space unless approved by the mutual consent of the COR and CONTRACTOR.

The intent of the foregoing paragraph is to guarantee that the OWNER will receive, at delivery, a fully operational vessel which is immediately capable of entering service. Any pre-existing deficiencies not covered in these Specifications or Drawings will be subject to correction at the OWNER expense.

PROSECUTION OF WORK

STARTING DATE FOR PROJECTS

The Notification of Award will stipulate the date on which it is expected the Contractor will begin contract work and from which date contract time will be charged. No work shall begin on the project until the contract has been fully executed.

SCHEDULE REQUIREMENTS

Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Contractor is required to furnish the COR with the following schedules at or before the pre-work conference: Gantt chart (Bar Chart) and CPM Schedule. This shall be provided in MS Project Format.

The schedule shall show contract milestones, intermediate contract completion dates, and the contract completion date. The schedule shall show the Contractor’s scheduled completion date and the substantial completion date when applicable.

Should the prosecution of the work be discontinued or changed for any reason, these specifications require the Contractor to notify the COR at least two days in advance of changing or resuming operations. Through the life

ABS 5 year Cargo Gear inspection and repairs, inspection and OEM certification of the Ships aft Cargo Crane of the project, the COR should verify that activities, durations, start and finish dates, etc. shown on the schedule represent the actual status of work.

The COR may request in writing a supplemental schedule if the actual prosecution of work differs significantly from that represented on the schedule. The Contractor must provide the requested supplemental schedule within 3 calendar days of the request and at no cost to the Government.

Jobsite progress meetings shall be held weekly or as specified for the purpose of updating the schedule.

Progress will be reviewed to verify actual start and finish dates of completed activities, remaining duration and percent complete of uncompleted activities, and any proposed revisions to the schedule. It is the Contractor's responsibility to provide the COR with the status of activities at the progress meetings and prepare schedule updates based on this information once it has been verified and agreed upon. A written narrative describing the schedule status, the critical path and any revisions to the schedule shall be included with the updated schedule.

The updated schedule will be resubmitted should it not contain the agreed upon information.

The COR must have a schedule that accurately represents the prosecution of work and activities at all times. A current schedule is essential for evaluating requests for adjustments and determining how delays, extra work, interruptions, suspensions, etc. will impact the contract completion date or the Contractor’s scheduled completion date. These specifications allow the COR to withhold progress payments if the Contractor fails to provide the schedules and updates as required.

GANTT CHART

A Gantt chart is another name for a bar chart. The Gantt chart provides a graphical representation of the project plan that includes the activities that make up the project, the estimated duration of each activity, and the planned sequence of activity performance. The critical path must be identified on the Gantt chart. Total float must be identified on Gantt charts developed from CPM schedules. Total float is not required to be identified on Gantt charts developed without CPM schedules. The Gantt chart must conform to the specifications as set forth in the contract. This shall be provided in MS Project Format.

CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM) SCHEDULE

A CPM schedule is one that forecasts the amount of time required from project start to finish by arranging all project activities in their logical sequence and calculating all possible path lengths through the project. CPM schedules are used to ensure adequate project planning and provide a tool to quickly and accurately evaluate project changes. The CPM schedule may also be used to determine when and what activities need to be accelerated to meet contract milestones, completion dates, etc.

Two copies of the Time-Scaled Logic Diagram, Network Report, and Schedule Report must be submitted by the Contractor. This shall be provided in MS Project Format.

ABS 5 year Cargo Gear inspection and repairs, inspection and OEM certification of the Ships aft Cargo Crane

The Network Report shall completely define the schedule logic. It will clearly indicate all logical relationships and constraints.

The Schedule Report shall be sorted by activity number and shall provide the following information for each activity: activity number, activity description, activity calendar, original duration, remaining duration, percent complete, scheduled or actual start and finish dates, late start and finish dates, free float and total float.

PROGRESS REVIEW MEETINGS

The CONTRACTOR and COR shall hold progress review meetings every (1) week to be held on the vessel or such other location as approved by both parties beginning (1) week after the delivery of the vessel to the CONTRACTOR facility. The purpose of the meetings is to discuss, report, and resolve problems relative to progress, anticipated delays, cost experience in relation to budget and projected end costs, staffing, schedules, receipt of GFE (if any), CONTRACTOR furnished material, production problems (including Subcontractor problems), and other related matters.

GUARANTEES

All guarantees or warrantees shall begin at the completion of final acceptance the completed work detailed in the specification by the COR.

MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP

SECTION 100: GENERAL SERVICES REQUIREMENTS

ITEM 101 APPLICABILITY OF RULES AND REGULATION

ABSTRACT:

It is the intent of this ITEM to define the rules and regulations governing the TS KENNEDY in order that the Contractor is cognizant of these requirements in the performance of this SOW.

REFERENCES:

46 CFR 167

SOLAS Cargo Ship (Non-tanker)

LOCATION / DESCRIPTION:

The TS KENNEDY was originally constructed as a Cargo Ship (non tanker) under ABS Rules and the rules of SOLAS 1960. Conversion to a Public Nautical School Ship took place in 2003 with additional conversion work being accomplished in 2009. As a Public Nautical School Ship, the regulations of 46

ABS 5 year Cargo Gear inspection and repairs, inspection and OEM certification of the Ships aft Cargo Crane

CFR 167 in addition to SOLAS rules for a Cargo Ship (non-tanker) applies. As a voluntary act, the U.S.

Maritime Administration constructed the converted areas (in 2003 and 2009) in accordance with the requirements of a SOLAS Passenger ship (greater than 36 passengers). Other unconverted areas of the ship retain only Cargo Ship compliance.

NOTES:

Not Separately Priced (NSP) in section B Pricing. See Number (ITEM) 101.

STATEMENT OF WORK:

All work in this SOW must comply with the requirements of the USCG, ABS and SOLAS relative to the area being worked on. For example, if work is being performed in an area of the ship previously converted in accordance with SOLAS Passenger Ship rules, the work must comply with SOLAS Passenger Ship rules. If work is being performed in an area which currently only meets Cargo Ship rules, the work must, at a minimum, comply with Cargo Ship rules. This compliance is especially important relative to maintaining structural fire protection ratings. In this regard, the Contractor shall not perform any work which will result in a lowering of the existing structural fire protection ratings.

If the Contractor is aware of anything in this SOW that shall compromise that compliance, they shall make it known immediately, in writing, to the COR.

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA / DELIVERABLES:

Prove all the work to the satisfaction of COR and TSK Officers.

In accordance with all regulatory body requirements the Contractor shall provide all labor, materials and services to accomplish the intent of this ITEM. In addition to and at a minimum, the Contractor shall:

Certify all areas "Safe for Hot Work" by a certified Marine Chemist prior to the performance of any hot work.

Maintain this certificate using a certified Competent Person. A fire watch, with no other duties, shall be on-site to monitor conditions at each hot work site. This individual may act as a helper to the individual performing the hot work but must be standing by with a fully charged portable fire extinguisher while the hot work is in progress. Any hot work adjacent to a bulkhead, deck or tank boundary shall require a second fire watch on the other side of the bulkhead, deck or boundary. The ship's firefighting apparatus, (including portable extinguishers, fixed bottles, fire main, hoses, turn-out gear, SCBA's) shall not be used by the Contractor for fire watch purposes.

Maintain all fire boundaries. The Contractor shall not compromise fire boundaries (fire screen doors, remote-acting watertight doors, etc.) by blocking doors open or removing doors.

Maintain Unobstructed Escape Routes. The Contractor shall not obstruct egress routes (doors, hatches, scuttles, passageways, etc.) in a way which endangers the safe entrance or evacuation of personnel.

ITEM 104 SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS

Not Separately Priced (NSP) in section B Pricing. See Item Number (ITEM) 0007

It is the intent of this ITEM to provide coordination and scheduling of USCG inspections and ABS surveys during this contract.

The ship is not in an Alternate Compliance Program (ACP) with the US Coast Guard (as defined by 46 CFR, Part 8 Subchapter D). For this reason, witnessing of all inspections and surveys related to this contract must be offered to the US Coast Guard as well as ABS. As this is a Public Nautical School Ship, there will be no attendance charges by USCG. ABS inspection fees shall be the responsibility of MARAD except when an inspection or survey has failed as a result of the Contractor's lack of preparation and planning. In those instances, the ABS survey fees associated with the subsequent visit shall be the Contractor's expense.
