1.4.1 Materials and Workmanship:

1.4.1.1 NOT USED

1.4.1.2 All work under this contract shall be performed in a skillful and workmanlike manner. The Contracting Officer may require, in writing, that the Contractor remove from the work any employee the Contracting Officer deems incompetent, careless, or otherwise objectionable.

1.4.1.3 In accordance with FAR 52.236-6 At all times during performance of this contract and until the work is completed and accepted, the Contractor shall directly superintend the work or assign and have on the worksite a competent superintendent who is satisfactory to the Contracting Officer and has authority to act for the Contractor.

1.4.2 Weather Precautions:

Contractor shall ensure that weather sensitive materials are placed within the conditions recommended by the material supplier

1.4.3 Project Description:

Briefly and without force or effect upon the contract documents, the work of this contract can be summarized as follows:

Purpose of this purchase is to remove the east Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI)

Wheel Line in the Landing Gear Facility and replace it with a technologically modern automated FPI Process Line. Removal of existing FPI Line includes removal of large FPI and Cleaning Line process tanks, and removal of FPI wheel line process equipment and controls. Purchase also includes removal of two rows of abandoned large process tanks.

Replacement FPI system includes installation of new tanks, FPI process equipment, process controls, tank support structure, dark room modifications, and other ancillary work to provide a complete automated FPI wheel line industrial process. Landing gear wheels are heavy (up to 300 pounds each) and difficult to properly handle throughout the

FPI process. To handle these parts specialized equipment is required, particularly in an automated process, to effectively comply with all related technical FPI processes without human handling.

1.4.4 Project Location:

The work shall be located at Hill Air Force Base, Landing Gear Overhaul Facility, Building 507.

a. The conditions bearing upon transportation, disposal, handling, and storage of materials.

b. The availability of labor, and necessary utilities including water, gas, and electric power.

c. The availability and suitability of pavements and roadways.

d. Prevalent weather conditions or similar physical conditions at the site.

e. The character and condition of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during work performance.

1.5.2 The Contractor shall examine and note the character, quality, and quantity of surface and subsurface materials or obstacles to be encountered insofar as that information is reasonably ascertainable from an inspection of the site. The contractor shall note any exploratory work performed by the Government and provided in the drawings and specifications or made a part of this contract as attachments. Any failure of the Contractor to take the actions described and acknowledged in this paragraph shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for estimating properly the difficulty and cost of successfully performing the work, or for proceeding to successfully perform the work without additional expense to the Government.

1.5.2.1 The Government assumes no responsibility for any conclusions or interpretations made by the Contractor based on the information made available by the

Government. Nor does the Government assume responsibility for any understanding reached or representation made concerning conditions which can affect the work by any of its officers or agents before the execution of this contract, unless that understanding or representation is expressly stated in this contract.
