CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE/SCHEDULE OF VALUES

1.1 SUMMARY

The requirements of this Section apply to, and are a component part of each Section of the Specifications.

1.2 SUBMITTALS

Submit the following in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL

PROCEDURES:

SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals

Construction Progress Schedule

Schedule of Values

1.3 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND SCHEDULE OF VALUES

At the Pre-Construction Conference, submit a Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values in accordance with FAR Clause 52.236.15.

The Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values as approved by the Government is not a substitute for quantities conveyed by the specification and drawings and those required for a complete job. Omissions and errors on the Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values are the responsibility of the Contractor.

Payments will not be made until the Schedule of Values has been submitted to and approved by the COR.

The Construction Schedule shall clearly indicate the start and completion dates of major work components. The Schedule of Values shall clearly indicate unit value of all major work components.

1.3.1 Construction Schedule

Once approved by the Government, the Construction Schedule shall be maintained by the Contractor as a fluid document, used during job meetings to review upcoming work. At a minimum, a two week “look ahead” will be discussed at each job meeting once the period of on-site construction approaches (i.e. within one month of start of On-Site Construction).

The Coast Guard views the Construction Schedule, and management of it, to be a critical component for the success of the project. It is in the best interest of the Government and the Contractor to complete the work in a thoughtful, efficient manner in order to maximize resources, and minimize the period of construction.

The Construction Schedule shall incorporate at a minimum the following

Section 01 32 00 Page 2 of 3

Activities:

a. Mobilization

b. Demobilization

c. Pre-construction Submittals

d. Work Activities

e. In-Progress Submittals

f. Final Government Inspection

g. Close-Out Submittals; i.e. Testing Balancing Reports, Warranties, Operation and Maintenance Manuals, Posted Instructions

h. Record Drawings

i. Factors which Constitute Potential Interruptions to

Facility Operations

Pre-Construction Submittals are those activities which encompass the obtaining, submission, review and approval of submittals necessary prior to the start of the related work. Contractor shall annotate all such activities into the progress schedule with their forecasted time periods.

These activity periods shall not be exclusive of the contract performance period. No work shall commence until the respective submittals have been approved.

1.3.2 Schedule of Values

The value of all major work components within the project shall be identified on the Schedule of Values, using quantities and values that are appropriate to the contract structure of the project, and tasks involved.

The Schedule of Values shall be based on the actual breakdown of the Bid Price, and shall clearly indicate unit value of all major work components.

Line items shall be established to support not only the work of each trade and associated sub-contractor, but the progress of phased work, in order to facilitate review and approval of Contractor requisitions for payment. The cost of Insurance shall not be listed as a separate item but included as part of each item of work. The actual cost of bonds may be paid as the first progress payment when a receipt from the bonding company is presented to the COR. In addition, keep the Government Inspector informed daily of the expected delivery dates for major pieces of equipment and materials.

1.4 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE UPDATES

Update the Construction Schedule as required, and in any event in advance of each Job Meeting, and distribute to Job Meeting participants at (or in advance of) each Job Meeting, and when schedule has been revised. Reflect any changes occurring since the last update. Submit copies of the purchase orders and confirmation of the delivery dates as directed.

Section 01 32 00 Page 3 of 3

3.1 PROGRESS UPDATES

3.1.1 General

A revised Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values shall be issued by the Contractor on a monthly basis. In addition, any revisions to the Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values such as modifications or delays shall be reflected by Contractor submission of an updated Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values.

3.1.2 Modifications

When a modification is issued by the Government, record the modification as the last activity of the Construction Schedule and Schedule of Values and include the value of the modification. Adjust the Schedule of Values to reflect the inclusion of the modification. Revise the Construction Schedule portion of the form to annotate the progress change.

3.1 CONSTRUCTION

Comply with EM-385-1-1, NFPA 241, the accident prevention plan, the activity hazard analysis and other related submittals and activity fire and safety regulations.

3.1.1 Hazardous Material Exclusions

Notwithstanding any other hazardous material used in this contract, radioactive materials or instruments capable of producing ionizing/non-ionizing radiation as well as materials which contain asbestos, mercury or polychlorinated biphenyls, di-isocynates, lead-based paint are prohibited.

Exceptions to the use of any of the above excluded materials may be considered by Contracting Officer upon written request by Contractor.

3.1.2 Unforeseen Hazardous Material

The design should have identified materials such as PCB, lead paint, and friable and nonfriable asbestos. If additional material, not indicated, SECTION 01 35 29 Page 5 of 6 which may be hazardous to human health upon disturbance during construction operations is encountered, stop that portion of work and notify the Contracting Officer immediately. Within 14 calendar days the Government will determine if the material is hazardous. If material is not hazardous or poses no danger, the Government will direct the Contractor to proceed without change. If material is hazardous and handling of the material is necessary to accomplish the work, the Government will issue a modification pursuant to "FAR 52.243-4, Changes" and "FAR 52.236-2, Differing Site Conditions."

3.2 PERSONNEL PROTECTION

3.2.1 Hazardous Noise

Provide hazardous noise signs, and hearing protection, wherever equipment and work procedures produce sound-pressure levels greater than 85 dBA steady state or 140 dBA impulse, regardless of the duration of the exposure.

3.2.2 Fall Protection

Enforce use of the fall protection device designated for each specific work activity in the FP&P plan and/or AHA all times when an employee is on a surface 6 feet or more above lower levels. Personal fall arrest systems are required when working from an articulating or extendible boom, scissor lifts, swing stages, or suspended platform. Fall protection must comply with ANSI A10.32.

3.3 SCAFFOLDING

Employees shall be provided with a safe means of access to the work area on the scaffold. Climbing of any scaffold braces or supports not specifically designed for access is prohibited. Stair towers or ladders built into scaffold systems in accordance with EM 385-1-1 Appendix J are required for work platforms greater than 20 feet in height. Contractor shall ensure that employees that are qualified perform scaffold erection. Do not use scaffold without the capability of supporting at least four times the maximum intended load or without appropriate fall protection as delineated in the accepted fall protection plan. Minimum platform size shall be based on the platform not being greater in height than three times the dimension of the smallest width dimension for rolling scaffold. Some Baker type scaffolding has been found not to meet these requirements. Stationary scaffolds must be attached to structural building components to safeguard against tipping forward or backward. Special care shall be given to ensure scaffold systems are not overloaded. Outrigger brackets used to extend scaffold platforms on self-supported scaffold systems for the storage of material is prohibited. The first tie-in shall be at the height equal to 4 times the width of the smallest dimension of the scaffold base.
