RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ARCHITECT-ENGINEER: Notwithstanding any review, acceptance or approval by the Government, the A-E shall be responsible for the professional and technical quality of all designs, drawings, specifications, and other material produced under this contract. The A-E shall also be responsible for the professional quality and adequacy of the service and materials furnished and for compliance with design criteria specified by the Government for use under this contract.

a. Reassignment of A-E design responsibilities to construction contractors will be highly discouraged by the Government. This includes but is not limited to the following: structural steel detailing, fire sprinkler design, stair systems, retaining wall systems, and structural framing systems. This practice in no way relieves the A-E of their responsibility for these items. The A-E will be asked to approve and shall certify all “delegated” designs for conformance to the project design analysis.

23. SUBMITTAL FOR A-E COST PROPOSALS: For each task order, the A-E shall submit a proposal in the format provided by the Contracting Officer. Each item in the provided document shall be complete.

24. SAFETY: The services to be supplied shall meet all applicable safety requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and Air Force Occupational Safety and Health (AFOSH) Standards. The construction specifications and drawings provided by the individual work order shall specify the OSHA standards in detail or by explicit reference, e.g., (1) Handrails and guardrails will be provided as required by OSHA standards 1910.23 or

(2) Ladders will be constructed in accordance with OSHA Standard 1910.27.

25. SECURITY INFORMATION: Air Force security regulations will be followed by all members of the A-E firm who are working on this project. Precautions shall be taken and every effort shall be made to prevent public disclosure of any information made available to the A-E during the performance of this contract.
