The CPM shall correlate specifically to the schedule of values line items and be cost loaded.

Float, slack time, or contingency within the schedule (i.e., the difference in time between the project's early completion date and the required contract completion date), and total float within the overall schedule, is not for the exclusive use of either the principal City representative or the Contractor, but is jointly owned by both and is a resource available to and shared by both parties as needed to meet contract milestones and the contract completion date.

The Contractor will be required to submit an as-built progress CPM schedule with each progress billing. This CPM schedule will be the basis for making progress payments.

The level of detail and quantity of work activities in the CPM schedule should be negotiated with the principal representative prior to starting construction.

J. Daily Reports

1. The contractor shall keep daily reports. The report should include weather, equipment, workforce count, subcontractors on site, short description of work for that day, inspections, visitors, items that may affect progress or quality of project.

K. Request for Information (RFI):

1. The Contractor will be responsible for submitting RFIs on a agreed upon format. The

RFI should identify in writing any unclear, inconsistent, or conflicting item in the documents that could not be answered by thorough review by the Contractor or subcontractors. The RFI should include a description of the item and a proposed solution. The RFI should indicate schedule or cost impact, if any. Contractor shall be required to submit cost or schedule impact within seven days of receipt of the RFI response. Each RFI shall be numbered in sequence.
