SUMMARY OF WORK

JB Charleston (Dec 2021)

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

1.1.1 Project Description

The existing facility has four active full-motion flight simulators and administrative areas, and all are focused on C-17 training. The building has had numerous additions over time, with the original facility built sometime in the mid-1980s. This project is to provide HVAC repairs and modifications to meet the strict climate control criteria needed for the simulator operations and remedy the existing problem of roof leaks throughout the facility. The project also includes repairing and replacing interior finishes affected by the existing roof leaks over time. The four simulator bays are identified both by the bay and by the simulator (WST) identification number as specified on the drawings is as follows from east to west: Bay 1 (WST -2); Bay 2 (WST-1); Bay 3 (WST-21); and Bay 4 (WST-9)

Sitework includes re-grading stormwater runoff on the northwest area of the building. A new trench drain system is to be located outside the northwest door to redirect stormwater runoff water away from the building and encourage sheet flow to existing swales and conduits, as shown on the drawings. The runoff will be conveyed to an existing stormwater management facility in the project site's northwest quadrant.

The existing facility is primarily a secure facility with limited access to the simulator operations area. A small portion of the front office area is classified as non-secure located outside the secure boundary. The demarcation of the controlled entry secure boundary is shown on the drawings. All work within the secure area of the facility will require an escort.

1.1.2 Location

The work shall be located on Joint Base Charleston (JBC) Air Base (AB), approximately as indicated. The exact location will be shown by the Contracting Officer.

1.2 OCCUPANCY OF PREMISES

Building(s) will be occupied during performance of work under this Contract.

Before work is started, the Contractor shall arrange with the Contracting Officer a sequence of procedure, means of access, space for storage of materials and equipment, and use of approaches, corridors, and stairways.

Phasing of construction is required for the work. This facility will be in full operation and functioning in some capacity 24/7, and only one simulator bay can be down at any one time during construction. The phasing of construction requires full coordination with the Base since the building is a secure facility with limited access. Work effort will be limited to the

3.3.1 Level of Detail Required

Develop the Project Schedule to the appropriate level of detail to address major milestones and to allow for satisfactory project planning and execution. Failure to develop the Project Schedule to an appropriate level

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 4 of detail will result in its disapproval. The Contracting Officer will consider, but is not limited to, the following characteristics and requirements to determine appropriate level of detail:

3.3.2 Activity Durations

Reasonable activity durations are those that allow the progress of ongoing activities to be accurately determined between update periods. Less than 2 percent of all non-procurement activities may have Original Durations (OD) greater than 28 calendar days.

3.3.3 Procurement Activities

Include activities associated with the critical submittals and their approvals, procurement, fabrication, and delivery of long lead materials, equipment, fabricated assemblies, and supplies. Long lead procurement activities are those with an anticipated procurement sequence of over 90 calendar days.

3.3.4 Mandatory Tasks

Include the following activities/tasks in the baseline project schedule and all updates.

a. Submission, review and acceptance of SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals

(individual activity for each).

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 5

r. Correction of punch list from Government's pre-final inspection.

s. Final inspection.

3.3.5 At a minimum, each activity shall include the following information:

a. Activity ID

b. Activity Description

c. Calendar

d. Original Duration in Calendar Days

e. Early Start Date

f. Early Finish Date

g. Late Start Date

h. Late Finish Date

i. Total Float

j. Contract Line Item Number (CLIN)(i.e.: CLIN 0001, CLIN 0002, etc.)

3.3.6 Government Activities

Show Government and other agency activities that could impact progress.

These activities include, but are not limited to: approvals permit approvals by State regulators, inspections, utility tie-in/outages, Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.

3.3.7 Contract Milestones and Constraints

Milestone activities are to be used for significant project events including, but not limited to, project phasing, project start and end activities, or interim completion dates. The use of artificial float constraints such as "zero free float" or "zero total float" are prohibited.

Mandatory constraints that ignore or affect network logic are prohibited.

No constrained dates are allowed in the schedule other than those specified herein. Submit additional constraints to the Contracting Officer for approval on a case by case basis.

3.3.7.1 Contract Award Date Milestone:

The Contractor shall include as the first activity on the schedule a start milestone titled "Contract Award", which shall have a Mandatory Start constraint equal to the Contract Award Date.

3.3.7.2 Project Start Date Milestone and Constraint:

The Contractor shall include as an activity after award on the schedule a

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 6 start milestone titled "Notice to Proceed (NTP)", which shall have a Mandatory Start constraint equal to the date the Notice to Proceed is acknowledged.

3.3.7.3 Projected Completion Milestone:

The Contractor shall include an unconstrained finish milestone on the schedule titled "Projected Completion", indicating the point in time at which the project is complete and ready for its intended use. This milestone shall have the Contract Completion Date (CCD) as its only successor.

3.3.7.4 Contract Completion Date (CCD) Milestone:

The Contractor shall include as the last activity on the schedule a finish milestone titled "Contract Completion (CCD)", which shall have a Finish on or Before constraint equal to the Contract Completion Date.

The only predecessor to the Contract Completion Date Milestone shall be the Projected Completion Milestone. The CCD Shall be equal to the Period of Performance (in Calendar Days) added to the NTP date.

Constrain the project schedule to the Contract Completion Date in such a way that if the schedule calculates an early finish, then the float calculation for "Contract Completion Date" milestone reflects positive float on the longest path. If the project schedule calculates a late finish, then the "Contract Completion Date" milestone float calculation reflects negative float on the longest path. The Government is under no obligation to accelerate Government activities to support a Contractor's early completion.

3.3.7.5 Interim Completion Dates and Constraints

Constrain contractually specified interim completion dates to show negative float when the calculated late finish date of the last activity in that phase is later than the specified interim completion date.

3.3.7.6 Start Phase

Use a start milestone as the first activity for a project phase. Call the start milestone "Start Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.

3.3.7.7 End Phase

Use a finish milestone as the last activity for a project phase. Call the finish milestone "End Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.

3.3.8 Calendars

Schedule activities on a Calendar to which the activity logically belongs.

Develop calendars to accommodate any contract defined work period such as a 7-day calendar for Government Acceptance activities, concrete cure times, etc.

Develop the default Calendar to match the physical work plan with non-work periods identified including weekends and holidays. Develop Seasonal Calendar(s) and assign to seasonally affected activities as applicable.

All activity durations and float values shall be shown in calendar days.

Default activity type shall be set to “Task” and the project “Must Finish By” date shall be left blank.

3.3.8.1 Monthly Anticipated Adverse Weather Delays - in Calendar Days

Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 6 5 5 5 5 8 9 9 7 5 4 6

If an activity is weather sensitive it should be assigned to a calendar showing non-work days on a monthly basis, with the non-work days selected at random across the weeks of the calendar, using the anticipated adverse weather delay days. The above chart in paragraph 3.3.8.1 indicates the amount of weather days to be accounted for in the Critical Path Method Schedule for those activities that are weather sensitive. A lost workday due to weather conditions is defined as a day in which the Contractor cannot reasonably work at least 50 percent of the day on the impacted activity.

Use the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Summary of Monthly Normals report to obtain the historical average number of days each month with precipitation, using a nominal 30-year, greater than 0.10 inch precipitation amount parameter, as indicated on the Station Report for the NOAA location closest to the project site as the basis for establishing a "Weather Calendar" showing the number of anticipated Non-workdays for each month due to adverse weather, in addition to Saturdays, Sundays and all Federal Holidays as non-work days. Table 3.3.8.1 indicates this anticipated schedule for Joint Base Charleston.

3.3.8.2 Government Holidays

The following holidays shall be incorporated into the Project Schedule as non-work days. Follow the procedures identified in Specification 01 14 00 to request work on the following days. Reference the Office of Personnel Management Website (https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/federal-holidays/#url=Overview) for the most current information regarding Government Holidays and the specific days for observance:

New Year’s Day

Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Washington’s Birthday

Memorial Day

Juneteenth National Independence Day

Independence Day

Labor Day

Columbus Day

Veterans Day

Thanksgiving Day

Christmas Day

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 8

3.3.9 Open Ended Logic

Only two open ended activities are allowed: the first activity "Contract Award Date" may have no predecessor logic, and the last activity, "Contract Completion Date" may have no successor logic.

Predecessor open ended logic may be allowed in a time impact analyses upon the Contracting Officer's approval.

3.3.10 Default Progress Data Disallowed

Actual Start and Finish dates must not automatically update with default mechanisms included in the scheduling software. Updating of the percent complete and the remaining duration of any activity must be independent functions. Disable program features that calculate one of these parameters from the other. Activity Actual Start (AS) and Actual Finish (AF) dates assigned during the updating process must match those dates provided in the Contractor Quality Control Reports. Failure to document the AS and AF dates in the Daily Quality Control report will result in disapproval of the Contractor's schedule.

3.3.11 Out-of-Sequence Progress

Activities that have progressed before all preceding logic has been satisfied (Out-of-Sequence Progress) will be allowed only on a case-by-case basis subject to approval by the Contracting Officer. Propose logic corrections to eliminate out of sequence progress or justify not changing the sequencing for approval prior to submitting an updated project schedule. Address out of sequence progress or logic changes in the Narrative Report and in the periodic schedule update meetings.

3.3.12 Added and Deleted Activities

Do not delete activities from the project schedule or add new activities to the schedule without approval from the Contracting Officer. Activity ID and description changes are considered new activities and cannot be changed without Contracting Officer approval.

3.3.13 Original Durations

Activity Original Durations (OD) must be reasonable to perform the work item. OD changes are prohibited unless justification is provided and approved by the Contracting Officer.

3.3.14 Leads, Lags, and Start to Finish Relationships

Lags, Leads (negative lags), and Start-to-Finish (SF) relationships are prohibited.

3.3.15 Retained Logic

Schedule calculations must retain the logic between predecessors and successors ("retained logic" mode) even when the successor activity(s) starts and the predecessor activity(s) has not finished (out-of-sequence progress). Software features that in effect sever the tie between predecessor and successor activities when the successor has started and the predecessor logic is not satisfied ("progress override") are not be allowed.

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 9

3.3.16 Percent Complete

Update the percent complete for each activity started, based on the realistic assessment of earned value. Activities which are complete but for remaining minor punch list work and which do not restrain the initiation of successor activities may be declared 100 percent complete to allow for proper schedule management.

3.3.17 Remaining Duration

Update the remaining duration for each activity based on the number of estimated calendar days it will take to complete the activity.

Remaining duration may not mathematically correlate with percentage found under paragraph entitled Percent Complete.

3.3.18 Cost Loading of Closeout Activities

Cost load the "Correction of punch list from Government pre-final inspection" activity(ies) not less than 1 percent of the present contract value. Activity(ies) may be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's verification of completion and correction of all punch list work identified during Government pre-final inspection(s).

3.3.18.1 As-Built Drawings

If there is no separate contract line item (CLIN) for as-built drawings, cost load the "Submission and approval of as-built drawings" activity not less than 1 percent of the present contract value. Activity will be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's approval.

3.3.18.2 O & M Manuals

Cost load the "Submission and approval of O & M manuals" activity not less than 1 percent of the overall contract value. Activity will be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's approval of all O & M manuals.

3.3.19 Early Completion Schedule and the Right to Finish Early

An Early Completion Schedule is a Baseline Project Schedule that indicates all scope of the required contract work will be completed before the contractually required completion date.

a. No Baseline Project Schedule indicating an Early Completion will be accepted without being fully resource-loaded (including crew sizes and man-hours) and the Government agreeing that the schedule is reasonable and achievable.

b. The Government is under no obligation to accelerate work items it is responsible for to ensure that the early completion is met nor is it responsible to modify incremental funding (if applicable) for the project to meet the contractor's accelerated work.

c. If an Early Completion Schedule is proposed by the Contractor and accepted by the Government, the difference between the Early Completion CCD and the original CCD will be considered project float. Project float, as defined herein, is shared by the Contractor and the Government. The decision to modify the contract to reflect the Early Completion CCD will rest with the Contracting Officer.

SECTION 01 32 00 Page 10

3.4 PROJECT SCHEDULE SUBMISSIONS

Provide the submissions as described below. The data reports and network diagrams required for each submission are contained in paragraph SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS. If the Contractor fails or refuses to furnish the information and schedule updates as set forth herein, then the Contractor will be deemed not to have provided an estimate upon which a progress payment can be made.

Review comments made by the Government on the schedule(s) do not relieve the Contractor from compliance with requirements of the Contract Documents.

3.4.1 Schedule Acceptance Prior to Start of Work

The Contracting Officer and/or Contracting Officer’s Representative and the Contractor shall participate in a preliminary meeting(s) to discuss the proposed schedule and requirements of this section prior to the Contractor submitting the Project Baseline Cost Loaded CPM Schedule. This preliminary meeting is to be requested by the Contractor to the

Only bonds shall be paid prior to acceptance of the Baseline Cost Loaded CPM Schedule.

The acceptance of a Baseline Cost Loaded CPM Schedule is a condition precedent to:

a. The Contractor starting work on the demolition or construction stage(s) of the contract.

b. Processing Contractor's pay request(s) for construction activities/items of work.

c. Review of any schedule updates.

Submittal of the Baseline Cost Loaded CPM Schedule and subsequent schedule updates shall be understood to be the Contractor's certification that the submitted schedule meets all of the requirements of the Contract Documents, represents the Contractor's plan on how the work shall be accomplished, and accurately reflects the work that has been accomplished and how it was sequenced (as-built logic).

3.4.2 Periodic Schedule Updates

Update the Cost Loaded CPM Project Schedule on a regular basis, monthly at a minimum. Provide a draft Periodic Schedule Update for review at the schedule update meetings as prescribed in the paragraph PERIODIC SCHEDULE UPDATE MEETINGS. These updates will enable the Government to assess Contractor's progress.

a. Update information including Actual Start Dates (AS), Actual Finish

Dates (AF), Remaining Durations (RD), and Percent Complete is subject to the approval of the Government at the meeting.

b. AS and AF dates must match the date(s) reported on the Contractor's

Quality Control Report for an activity start or finish.
