3.05 PROJECT SCHEDULE

A. General: The Contractor shall provide the Project Schedule after award and before the Preconstruction Meeting. The schedule shall include a summary construction schedule with important milestones included for both phases.

B. Development and Updates: Fully develop the construction portion of the schedule and submit before the Preconstruction meeting or any construction begins. The Project Schedule shall be updated on a monthly basis throughout the entire contract period and until project substantial completion. The status date of each schedule update shall be 10 days before the progress payment request date.

C. Purpose: The purpose of the Project Schedule is to ensure adequate planning, coordination, scheduling, and reporting during construction activities of the Contractor. The Project Schedule will assist the Contractor and the Government in monitoring the progress of the work, evaluating proposed changes, and processing the Contractor's monthly progress payment requests.

D. Schedule Development: The Project Schedule shall cover the entire contract period. The late finish date of the Project Schedule shall be the same date as the established completion date of the contract.

E. The Contractor shall use the Critical Path Method (CPM) with limited use of lead or lag durations between schedule activities. The Contractor's Project Schedule shall consist of procurement activities (including mobilization, submittal, and the fabrication and delivery of key and long-lead procurement items) and construction activities.

F. The Contractor's Project Schedule shall consist of, but not be limited to, the following for each activity:

1. Identify each and every activity number.

2. Concise description of the work represented by the activity (maximum 48 characters). Avoid the use of non-standard abbreviations. The work related to each activity shall be limited to one work trade.

3. Activity duration in whole working days, except for non-construction activities including mobilization, shop drawing and sample submittals, fabrication of materials, delivery of materials and equipment, and concrete curing.

4. In developing the Project Schedule, the Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that subcontractor work at all tiers, as well as its own work, is included in the Project Schedule.

5. The Project Schedule, as developed, shall show the sequence and interdependence of activities required for complete performance of the work. The Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring all work sequences are logical and the Project Schedule shows a coordinated work plan. Proposed durations assigned to each activity shall be the Contractor's best estimate of time required to complete the activity considering the scope and resources planned for the activity. Resource loading of each activity shall list all personnel by labor category and equipment type and capacity proposed to complete the activity in the duration shown. Include permit requirements and constraints. Seasonal weather conditions shall be considered and included in the planning and scheduling of all work influenced by high or low ambient temperatures, wind and/or precipitation to ensure completion of all work within the contract time.

G. Project Schedule Updates:

1. Monthly Updates: The monthly updating of the Project Schedule shall be an integral part and basic element of the estimate upon which progress payments shall be made under this contract. If, in the judgment of the CO, the Contractor fails or refuses to provide a Schedule of Values and a complete schedule update or revision as specified hereinafter, the Contractor shall be deemed to have not provided the required information upon which the progress payment may be made and shall be subject to retainage of a portion of the payment.

2. Time Impact Analysis for Contract Modifications, Changes, Delays, and Contractor Requests Requirements: When contract modifications or changes are initiated, delays are experienced, or the Contractor desires to revise the Project Schedule, the Contractor shall submit to the CO a written time impact analysis illustrating the influence of each modification, change, delay, or Contractor request on the contract time.

3. Time Extensions: Activity delays shall not automatically mean that an extension of the contract time is warranted or due the Contractor. It is possible that a modification, change, or delay will not affect existing critical activities or cause non-critical activities to become critical.

A modification, change, or delay may result in only absorbing a part of the available total float that may exist within an activity chain of the Project Schedule, thereby not causing any effect on the contract time. Time extensions will be granted in accordance with the terms of the contract.

4. Float: Float is not for the exclusive use or benefit of either the Government or the Contractor.

Extension of the contract time will be granted only to the extent the equitable time adjustments to the activity or activities affected by the modification, change, or delay exceeds the total (positive or zero) float available on a particular activity.
