In addition, each TO will include either a project-specific SOW or a 100% completed set of drawings and specifications that will detail the work requirements and conduct of operations for that particular TO. All specifications provided will include Section 01 11 00, Summary of Work, that will detail the work requirements and conduct of operations for that particular TO. If an individual TO does not include a project-specific 100% completed set of specifications, the MACC IDIQ Master Specifications will be utilized for all aspects pertaining to the individual project. Any questions regarding specifics or details within the specifications on a given TO must be submitted via an RFI to the Government for official response and direction forward.

6. COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK: The contractor must commence work and complete the project in accordance with the time frames established in the individual TO and respective NTP. In the event that the contractor does not complete the work within the original designated period of performance set by both Contracting and the requirement owner and agreed upon by the contractor, liquidated damages or considerations may be applied. Furthermore, the CO may require that any employee of the Contractor or subcontractor personnel whose conduct, in the opinion of the CO, interferes with proper discipline at the Installation where the services are performed, be removed from the project. This action incurs a cost or delay in the project, it will be at the cost and delay of behalf of the Contractor.

7. DESIGN DOCUMENTS, GENERAL: The design documents developed by the contractor must comply with the following requirements:

a. Drawings:

(1). The contractor will receive one copy of the appropriate record drawings (electronic only) if available, with the TO. Record drawings will be available to the contractor for their reproduction.

The Government does not guarantee the accuracy or adequacy of the existing as-built drawings. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to field-verify all as-built drawings during preliminary site visits and planning of the project. The Contractor is responsible for the reproduction of these drawings as needed.

(2). The TO will identify the sizes of drawings, either Standard D (24” x 36”) or Standard B (12” x

18”), to be submitted with the proposal and each subsequent review milestone (65%, 95%, and 100%). The contractor will supply all contract drawings prepared using AutoCAD software (version 2024 or previous). Line quality must not be half-toned or gray scaled below 75%. Drawings produced using another software package will be acceptable provided all drawings are converted to standard AutoCAD drawing file format prior to receipt by the Government and comply with the Minot AFB CAD standards and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) CAD Standards v 6.2. In addition, the Contractor will comply with the following standards:

a. Drawing files will be delivered in the standard AutoCAD “.dwg” file format for AutoCAD

(version 2024 or previous) as well as in PDF format. “Model space” is the preferred method for drafting all drawing items such as floorplans, sections, details…. Dimensions, leaders, and notes… specific to the drafted item must accompany the object drawn in “Model Space” and be scaled accordingly to appear in paper space at the correct text height as specified. Only general notes applicable to the entire drawing will be drawn in paperspace. Drawing units must be set according to the requirements for the drawing discipline; i.e., civil drawing units must be set to the decimal format, and architectural drawings set to the architectural format. Civil site plans will be in World Geodetic System (WGS) 84, UTM 14N, with all site plans oriented with north at the top of the sheet. Any reorientation of a view for drafting convenience will be done within the viewport using the “Dview” and “Twist” commands. Objects in model space will not be rotated. The Contractor must supply a written explanation as to how externally referenced drawings are used, view-port scales/settings, viewport layer settings, blocks, and any other relevant information necessary for the Execution Support Section at Minot AFB to make changes or updates to the drawings. The Contractor must also be available for phone assistance to clarify any other problems encountered by the Execution Support Section. “Paperspace” must be used to format the final plotted drawing sheet. Standard plotted paper size must be a “D” size sheet unless otherwise specified. All drawings must use the standard Minot AFB project title block. The title block will not be altered by the contractor. Only TO specific data will be edited within the title block.

b. All drawings must be submitted electronically and labeled appropriately, i.e., Redline Drawings, 50% Preliminary As-Builts, 100% Preliminary As-Builts, or Final As-Builts. If disks are delivered at various stages of the project, they will be labeled accordingly, i.e., 65% review, 100% for construction, or Final As-Builts.

c. All External Referenced (XREF) drawings will be located and linked correctly to ensure the xref will load properly. Multiple xref drawings will be allowed, but nested xref drawings will not be used. XREF drawings must be drawing files separate from the drawing files to which they are attached. Xref drawings will not contain other xref drawings, i.e., nested externally referenced drawings. The Contractor will provide complete typewritten instructions for reintegrating the drawings and must specify which XREF goes with which drawing.

d. All lettering (text) will be sized so that finished drawings, prior to half-scale reduction, incorporate text sizes of 1/2-inch for major titles, 1/4-inch for titles, 1/8- inch for notes, and 3/32-inch for dimensions. Larger text sizes may be used as part of the Title Sheets only. Only text fonts/styles native to the basic AutoCAD package must be used. No unique fonts or styles developed by the Contractor or design firm must be used. All detail notes, leaders, and dimensions must be legible when reproduced at half scale.

e. The Contractor will be provided a copy of layer standards utilized by the Minot AFB Execution

Support Section upon request. All layers will have narrative descriptions easily identified (i.e., walls, elec., etc.).

f. Use of third party development software is acceptable provided all drawing files submitted are in native AutoCAD format. Any features peculiar to the development software used, such as shape files, menus, blocks, etc. that are not accessible using the basic AutoCAD package are not acceptable and must be modified to ensure the drawing files may be easily edited or changed by government personnel using the basic AutoCAD software package.

g. Final AutoCAD drawing files should exhibit good drafting practice allowing for minimal storage requirements. Drawings should make use of features to limit drawing size/complexity wherever possible. Over-detailing (drawing features that are not discernible at full or half scale reproduction) is not acceptable and must be avoided.

h. Each drawing file will contain only one final plotted drawing sheet. Drawing files will have no more than one layout tab.

i. Submitted drawing files will be accompanied by a complete hard copy list of drawing file names, layers used, etc. The project number and list of drawings contained on each disk will be written on a label affixed to the disk.

j. All contract drawings to be furnished must be well prepared, complete, and accomplished in accordance with the best professional practice to show clearly and concisely the type and extent of work to be performed. All drawings must be drawn to appropriate scales and dimensioned completely and accurately. Extensive explanatory notes on the drawings are undesirable and should be communicated to the Government’s Project Manager for a solution. The use of fractions less than 1/8” for building dimensions will be avoided. Standard building material indications and standard symbols for civil items and for electrical equipment must be used to the greatest extent possible.

(3). Throughout the design process, each submittal will be clearly identified as to the level of completion (i.e., 65%, etc.). The “revisions” blocks on the plan sheets will not be utilized to document changes to the drawings until after the 100% design is completed and accepted by the Government.

(4). The Contractor must prepare drawings, as specified in the TO, for Government approval.

Drawings may come in the form of scheduled design milestones, Redlines, Preliminary As-Built sets, Final As-Builts sets, or other pertinent submissions so as to comply with TO technical documents, timelines, and the general logical flow of design and construction sequencing. The drawings developed by the contractor beyond the 35% point, to include drawings during and/or post-construction, must conform to industry standards relating to good design and drafting practices. All completed drawings must clearly identify the work being performed under the TO.

All project drawing sets will contain a “key plan” that indicates the location of the work to be performed. The key plan may be shown on the cover sheet with the location indicated within an overall plan of the Base site plan. The key plan should indicate the planned route for hauling materials within the Base road system. For smaller projects within a larger building/facility, include a plan of the larger facility that shows the location of the specific work within the larger facility.

Each sheet must have an approved title block and border with professional certification when required by the TO. The title block must contain project information including, but not limited to, Air Force Project #, TO #, Project Name, and submitted date. Basic design criteria utilized for each discipline will be included on the appropriate drawings as required by the TO. Examples would include wind and live/dead loads assumed for structural elements, function-specific conditions such as lighting levels or future use considerations for electrical systems, site-specific climatic design conditions for mechanical systems, and International Building Code analysis (performed to the same level as if being applied to a building permit process). The following is a list, although not fully inclusive, of drawings which might typically be required under this contract:

b. Specifications:

(1). For projects requiring design, the technical specifications to be utilized by the contractor must be the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) as well as the MACC Master Specifications.

The TO will include the minimum specification sections required by the Government to be included in the design package. The specification sections included in the TO for Design-Build type contracts will be in draft format, and the Contractor will be required to finalize each section during the course of project design to reflect specific design requirements. The specifications created during a Design-Build will be tailored to suit the specific work requirements of the individual items contained in the TO. Extraneous material that does not apply will be deleted. In the course of project design, the Contractor may supplement the Government-provided specifications with other sections of the UFGS that represent elements of work included in the project. The UFGS sections are available in full at www.wbdg.org. The complete set of project specifications, to include those sections provided by the Government as well as any supplemental sections added by the Contractor, must be included in each design submittal as required by the

TO.

(2). Specifications will be utilized in all TOs to further expand upon instructions, details, and requirements of a given project, both technical and administrative. When a 100% complete set of drawings is provided in a TO, a tailored 100% set of specifications will also be provided. If a TO does not provide a project-specific 100% completed set of drawings and specifications, the contractor will utilize the MACC IDIQ Master Specifications in addition to the supplied SOW and drawings.

(3). In addition to the technical specifications described above, the latest version of the following references are to be utilized in the preparation of project designs:

Applicable manufacturer or industry specifications or recommendations associated with material, supplies, or systems will be incorporated as well. If a discrepancy exists between these documents, the contractor must bring this to the attention of the Project Manager and CO and will utilize the most stringent requirement(s) in the preparation of the project design, unless instructed otherwise by the Government in writing via RFI.

During the course of a project, in both the design and construction periods, the building codes, Architectural Standards and UFCs will take precedent over the SOW. If a conflict is found between standards/codes and a project’s SOW, the contractor will submit a RFI to formally submit an inquiry to the Government for official response and direction forward. If a conflict is found between a project’s SOW or individualized specification set and the MACC IDIQ Master Specifications, the contractor must also submit an RFI for response prior to advancing in that aspect of construction.

(4). The TO will include an AF Form 66, Schedule of Material Submittals (AF66). This Government furnished AF Form 66 identifies the minimum submittal items that must be provided by the Contractor for Government review and approval in accordance with applicable specification section requirements. During the course of design and specification development, the Contractor will append the AF66 to include all items as required by the project specification sections to be submitted by the construction contractor for Government review and approval prior to installation. In regard to Design-Builds, the complete appended AF66 generated during the design phase must be included with the Contractor’s edited specifications in each design submittal as required by the TO for Government review and approval. In regard to Design-Bid-Builds, the Government will provide the AF66 in Microsoft Excel format for the contractor to update and track throughout the life of the project. Items of work that require submittal approval will not proceed without proper approval from the final Government authority. This is to include, but is not limited to: purchasing of materials, installation of materials, processes, and documentation. If progress is made by the Contractor on items of work that are subsequently disapproved by the Government, it will be considered a deficiency on the Contractor, and all work required to remove deficient work and reinstall with approved materials will be at the expense of the Contractor.

Similarly, processes or documentation that requires approval will not be considered as complete until the submittal has been approved and signed by the final Government authority.

c. Design Analysis:

As specified in the TO, design calculations may be required, to include code references, as applicable for each discipline, to show compliance, completeness, and accuracy of engineering measurements/loads/safety factors/etc..

e. Sustainable Design:

As specified in the TO, some projects will be required to incorporate sustainable design principles into the function and design. Air Combat Command Headquarters (ACC HQ) developed a consolidated tool - The ACC Sustainable Design & High Performance Green Building Scorecard to help ensure that these principles are being incorporated into projects. The sustainable direction comes from several different mandates such as EISA 007, MOU, EPAct 2005, and the U.S. Green Building Council’s (USGBC) LEED® (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Rating System. The TO will provide specific guidance as to sustainable design requirements.

f. Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED):

The TO will specify if LEED certification is to be achieved and to which level for that project. The USGBC’s online project management tool, LEED Online (https://www.leedonline.com/), will be used to manage, compile, and maintain all documentation to support LEED certification.

8. PROGRESSION OF WORK:

a. The successful contractor must submit for approval all work schedules to the CO within 10 calendar days after start of work unless otherwise specified.
