1.1 SUMMARY

A. This Section consists of Construction Schedule requirements including but not limited to the following:

1. Schedule of Values

2. Construction Schedule Requirements.

3. Construction Schedule Updates.

B. Purpose: The purpose of the Construction Schedule is to ensure adequate planning, coordination, scheduling, and reporting during execution of the work by the Contractor. The

Construction Schedule will assist the Contractor and

Contracting Officer in monitoring the progress of the work, evaluating proposed changes, and processing the Contractor's monthly progress payment. It shall include the dates in the contract, phases, milestones, occupancies, holidays, weather consideration, mobilization and demobilization, a critical path and the requirements of this section.

1.2 DEFINITIONS

A. Activity: A discrete part of a project that can be identified for planning, scheduling, monitoring, and controlling the construction project. Activities included in a construction schedule consume time and resources.

1. Critical activities are activities on the critical path.

They must start and finish on the planned early start and finish times.

2. Predecessor Activity: An activity that precedes another activity in the network.

3. Successor Activity: An activity that follows another activity in the network.

B. Cost Loading: The allocation of the Schedule of Values for the completion of an activity as scheduled. The sum of costs for all activities must equal the total Contract Sum, unless otherwise approved by the Contracting Officer.

C. Critical Path Method (CPM): CPM of planning and scheduling a construction project where activities are arranged based on

OLYM - 215532 01 32 16 - 2

activity relationships. Network calculations determine when activities can be performed and the critical path of Project.

D. Critical Path: The longest connected chain of interdependent activities through the network schedule that establishes the minimum overall Project duration and contains no float.

E. Float: The measure of leeway in starting and completing an activity.

1. Float: Float is not for the exclusive use or benefit of either the Government or the Contractor, but is jointly owned.

2. Free Float: Free float is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without adversely affecting the early start of the successor activity.

3. Total Float: Total float is the measure of leeway in starting or completing an activity without adversely affecting the planned Project completion date.

F. Resource Loading: The allocation of manpower and equipment necessary for the completion of an activity as scheduled.

G. Fragnet: A partial or fragmentary network that breaks down activities into smaller activities for greater detail.

1.3 SUBMITTALS

A. Electronic Copies: All schedules and reports submitted shall be in PDF file format sent via email to the Contracting

Officer.

B. Schedule of Values: After contract award and before the Pre-

Construction conference, submit a schedule of dollar values based on the Contract Price Schedule.

C. Construction Baseline Schedule: Schedule shall be submitted within 30 calendar days following contract award and before the Pre-Construction conference. Submit the baseline schedule, large enough to show entire schedule for entire construction period. Utilize Schedule of Values in preparation of Construction Baseline Schedule.

D. Construction Schedule Updates: On or before the 7th day preceding the progress payment request date, submit estimates of the percent completion of each schedule activity and necessary supporting data.
