1.3 SUBMITTALS
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;
SECTION 01 33 00 Page 3 submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only.
1.4 SUBMITTAL CLASSIFICATION
Submittals are classified as follows:
1.4.1 Designer of Record Approved (DA)
Designer of Record (DOR) approval is required for extensions of design, critical materials, any deviations from the solicitation, the accepted proposal, or the completed design, equipment whose compatibility with the entire system must be checked, and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer. Within the terms of the Contract Clause SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION, they are considered to be "shop drawings." Contractor to provide the Government with the number of copies designated hereinafter of all DOR approved submittals. The Government may review any or all Designer of Record approved submittals for conformance to the Solicitation, Accepted Proposal and the completed design. The Government will review all submittals designated as deviating from the Solicitation or Accepted Proposal, as described below. Design submittals to be in accordance with Section 01 33 16.00 10 DESIGN DATA (DESIGN AFTER AWARD). Generally, design submittals should be identified as SD-05 Design Data submittals.
1.4.2 Government Approved (G)
Government approval is required for extensions of design, critical materials, deviations, equipment whose compatibility with the entire system must be checked, and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer.
Government approval is required for any deviations from the Solicitation or Accepted Proposal and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer. Within the terms of the Contract Clause SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION, they are considered to be "shop drawings."
1.4.3 Government Conformance Review of Design (CR)

Design data includes the design documents described in Section 01 33 16.00 10 DESIGN DATA (DESIGN AFTER AWARD). Generally, design submittals should be identified as SD-05 Design Data submittals.
1.4.4 Designer of Record Approved/Government Conformance Review (DA/CR)
1.4.4.1 Deviations to the Accepted Design
Designer of Record approval and the Government's concurrence are required for any proposed deviation from the accepted design which still complies with the contract before the Contractor is authorized to proceed with material acquisition or installation. Within the terms of the Contract Clause SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION, they are considered to be "shop drawings." If necessary to facilitate the project schedule, the Contractor and the DOR may discuss a submittal proposing a deviation with the Contracting Officer's Representative prior to officially submitting it to the Government. However, the Government reserves the right to review the submittal before providing an opinion, if deemed necessary. In any
SECTION 01 33 00 Page 4 case, the Government will not formally agree to or provide a preliminary opinion on any deviation without the DOR's approval or recommended approval. The Government reserves the right to non-concur with any deviation from the design, which may impact furniture, furnishings, equipment selections or operations decisions that were made, based on the reviewed and concurred design.
1.4.4.2 Substitutions

Include substantiation, identifying information and the DOR's approval, as meeting the contract requirements and that it is equal in function, performance, quality and salient features to that in the accepted contract proposal. If the Contract otherwise prohibits substitutions of equal named products, systems, materials or equipment by manufacturer, brand name and/or by model number or other specific identification, the request is considered a "variation" to the contract.
Variations are discussed below in paragraphs: "Designer of Record Approved/Government Approved" and "VARIATIONS."
1.4.5 Designer of Record Approved/Government Approved (DA/GA)
In addition to the above stated requirements for proposed deviations to the accepted design, both Designer of Record and Government Approval and, where applicable, a contract modification are required before the Contractor is authorized to proceed with material acquisition or installation for any proposed variation to the contract (the solicitation and/or the accepted proposal), which constitutes a change to the contract terms. Within the terms of the Contract Clause SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION, they are considered to be "shop drawings." The Government reserves the right to accept or reject any such proposed deviation at its discretion.
1.4.6 For Information Only
Submittals not requiring Government approval will be for information only.
For Design-build construction all submittals not requiring Designer of Record or Government approval will be for information only. They are not considered to be "shop drawings" within the terms of the Contract Clause referred to above.
1.4.7
Sustainability Reporting Submittals (S)

1.10 VARIATIONS
Variations from contract requirements require both Designer of Record (DOR) and Government approval pursuant to contract Clause FAR 52.236-21 and will be considered where advantageous to Government.
1.10.1 Considering Variations
Discussion with Contracting Officer prior to submission, after consulting with the DOR, will help ensure functional and quality requirements are met and minimize rejections and re-submittals. When contemplating a variation which results in lower cost, consider submission of the variation as a Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP).
Specifically point out variations from contract requirements in transmittal letters. Failure to point out deviations may result in the Government requiring rejection and removal of such work at no additional cost to the Government.
1.10.2 Proposing Variations
When proposing variation, deliver written request to the Contracting Officer, with documentation of the nature and features of the variation and why the variation is desirable and beneficial to Government, including the DOR's written analysis and approval. If lower cost is a benefit, also include an estimate of the cost savings. In addition to documentation required for variation, include the submittals required for the item.
Clearly mark the proposed variation in all documentation.
Check the column "variation" of ENG Form 4025 for submittals which include proposed deviations requested by the Contractor. Set forth in writing the reason for any deviations and annotate such deviations on the submittal.
The Government reserves the right to rescind inadvertent approval of submittals containing unnoted deviations.
1.10.3 Warranting that Variations are Compatible
When delivering a variation for approval, Contractor, including its Designer(s) of Record, warrants that this contract has been reviewed to establish that the variation, if incorporated, will be compatible with other elements of work.
1.10.4 Review Schedule Extension
In addition to normal submittal review period, a period of 10 working days will be allowed for consideration by the Government of submittals with variations.
SECTION 01 33 00 Page 12
1.11 SCHEDULING
Schedule and submit concurrently submittals covering component items forming a system or items that are interrelated. Include certifications to be submitted with the pertinent drawings at the same time. No delay damages or time extensions will be allowed for time lost in late submittals. An additional five (5) calendar days will be allowed and shown on the register for review and approval of submittals for.
a. Coordinate scheduling, sequencing, preparing and processing of submittals with performance of work so that work will not be delayed by submittal processing. Allow for potential resubmittal of requirements.
b. Submittals called for by the contract documents will be listed on the register. If a submittal is called for but does not pertain to the contract work, the Contractor is to include the submittal in the register and annotate it "N/A" with a brief explanation. Approval by the Contracting Officer does not relieve the Contractor of supplying submittals required by the contract documents but which have been omitted from the register or marked "N/A."
c. Re-submit register and annotate monthly by the Contractor with actual submission and approval dates. When all items on the register have been fully approved, no further re-submittal is required.
d. Carefully control procurement operations to ensure that each individual submittal is made on or before the Contractor scheduled submittal date shown on the approved "Submittal Register."
e. Except as specified otherwise, allow review period, beginning with receipt by approving authority, that includes at least 10 working days for submittals. Period of review for submittals the Government approval begins when Government receives submittal from contractor.
f. For submittals requiring review by fire protection engineer, allow review period, beginning when Government receives submittal from contractor, of 14 working days for return of submittal to the Contractor.
g. Period of review for each resubmittal is the same as for initial submittal.

a. A proposed construction schedule
1.11.1 Reviewing, Certifying, Approving Authority
The QC organization is responsible for reviewing and certifying that submittals are in compliance with contract requirements. Approving authority on submittals is QC Manager unless otherwise specified for specific submittal. At each "Submittal" paragraph in individual specification sections, a notation "G," following a submittal item, indicates Contracting Officer is approving authority for that submittal item. Use the "S" Classification only in SD-11 Closeout Submittals. An "S" following a submittal item, indicates that the QC Manager is the approving authority, and that a copy of the approved submittal must be provided to the Designer of Record.
SECTION 01 33 00 Page 13
1.11.2 Constraints
Conform to provisions of this section, unless explicitly stated otherwise for submittals listed or specified in this contract.
Submit complete submittals for each definable feature of work. Submit at the same time components of definable feature interrelated as a system.
When acceptability of a submittal is dependent on conditions, items, or materials included in separate subsequent submittals, submittal will be returned without review.
Approval of a separate material, product, or component does not imply approval of assembly in which item functions.
1.11.3 QC Organization Responsibilities
a. Note date on which submittal was received from Contractor on each submittal.
b. Review each submittal; and check and coordinate each submittal with requirements of work and contract documents.
