This file is a Design and Installation Schedule Template for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Phase II project administered by the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT). The template outlines a comprehensive 19-month design and construction timeline for EV charging station installation, followed by five years of operations and maintenance. Key deliverables include utility design confirmation, construction drawings at 50%, 90%, and 100% completion stages (CD50, CD90, CD100), utility coordination, permitting, equipment procurement, construction tasks, testing and commissioning, and as-built documentation. The project is structured with clearly defined responsibilities distributed between NHDOT and the Developer/Vendor, with milestone checkpoints and approval gates throughout the process.

The schedule template incorporates four milestone payments tied to project progression: Milestone Payment 1 (10% of Design & Construction Amount) upon NHDOT design review and approval, Milestone Payment 2 upon equipment procurement completion, Milestone Payment 3 upon final acceptance, and Milestone Payment 4 (2% quarterly over five years) contingent upon meeting uptime requirements during the operations and maintenance phase. The template is presented as an example with adjustable task durations and sequencing, explicitly encouraging proposers to modify task definitions and timelines according to their specific proposals. Construction tasks outlined include standard EV infrastructure installation components such as permitting, utility transformer procurement, charging equipment procurement, electrical switchgear procurement, excavation, concrete work, electrical service installation, equipment setup, inspections, and commissioning.
