PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 SUBMITTALS
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" or "S" classification. Submittals not having a "G" or "S" classification are for Contractor Quality Control approval. Submit the following in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:
SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals
Baseline Construction Schedule; G
Baseline Design Schedule; G
SD-07 Certificates
Monthly Updates
1.2 PRE-CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE REQUIREMENT
Within 30 calendar days after contract award and Prior to the start of work, prepare and submit to the Contracting Officer a Baseline Design Schedule and Baseline Construction Schedule in the form of a Network Analysis Schedule (NAS) Bar Chart Schedule in accordance with the terms in Contract Clause FAR 52.236-15 Schedules for Construction Contracts, except as modified in this contract. The approval of a Baseline Construction Schedule is a condition precedent to:
a. The Contractor starting demolition work or construction stage(s) of the contract.
b. Processing Contractor's invoice(s) for construction activities/items of work.
c. Review of any schedule updates.
Submittal of the Baseline Design and Construction Schedule, and subsequent schedule updates, is understood to be the Contractor's certification that the submitted schedule meets the requirements of the Contract Documents, represents the Contractor's plan on how the work will be accomplished, and accurately reflects the work that has been accomplished and how it was sequenced (as-built logic).
1.3 SCHEDULE FORMAT
1.3.1 Network Analysis Schedule (NAS)
Use the critical path method (CPM) to schedule and control project activities. Prepare and maintain project schedules using Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project 2010 . Importing data into the scheduling program using data conversion techniques or third party software is cause for rejection of the submitted schedule.
SECTION 01 32 16.00 20 Page 1
Within 15 calendar days after approval of the Initial Schedule or approval of the final design for a design build project , submit to the Contracting Officer a final NAS schedule.
1.3.1.1 Activity Requirements
a. At a minimum, identify the following in the schedule:
(1) Design and Construction time for major systems and components
(2) Each activity assigned with its appropriate Responsibility Code
(3) Each activity assigned with its appropriate Phase and Area Codes
(4) Major submittals and submittal processing time
(5) Major equipment lead time
b. Build the Schedule as follows:
(1) Show design periods, submittals, Government review periods, material/equipment delivery, utility outages, on-site construction, inspection, testing, and closeout activities.
Government and Contractor on-site work activities must be driven by calendars that reflect Saturdays, Sundays and all Federal Holidays as non-work days for 5-day work week calendars.
(2) With the exception of the Contract Award and End Contract milestone activities, use of open-ended activities is not allowed;
each activity must have predecessor and successor ties. No activity must have open start or open finish (dangling) logic.
Minimize redundant logic ties. Once an activity exists on the schedule it must not be deleted or renamed to change the scope of the activity and must not be removed from the schedule logic without approval from the Contracting Officer. While an activity cannot be deleted, where said activity is no longer applicable to the schedule but must remain within the logic stream for historical record, it can be changed to a milestone. Document any such change in the milestone's "Notebook," including a date and explanation for the change. The ID number for a deleted activity must not be re-used for another activity.
(3) Assign each activity its appropriate Responsibility Code and Area Code, indicating location and responsibility to accomplish the work indicated by the activity, Phase Code, and Work Location Code. Include anticipated tasks to be assigned Government responsibility.
(4) Date/time constraints or lags, other than those required by the contract, are not allowed unless approved by the Contracting Officer. Include as the last activity in the contract schedule, a milestone activity named "Contract Completion Date".
(5) Include the following Contract Milestones:
(a) Include as the first activity on the schedule a start milestone titled "Contract Award", which must have a Mandatory Start constraint equal to the Contract Award Date;
SECTION 01 32 16.00 20 Page 2
(b) Include Interim or Phased Completion Milestones required by the Contract or as approved by the Contracting Officer;
(c) Include Facility Turnover Planning Meeting Milestones;
(d) Include an unconstrained finish milestone on the schedule titled "Substantial Completion". Substantial Completion is defined as the point in time the Government would consider the project ready for beneficial occupancy wherein by mutual agreement of the Government and Contractor. Government use of the facility is allowed while construction access continues in order to complete remaining items (e.g. punch list and other close out submittals).
(e) Include an unconstrained finish milestone on the schedule titled "Projected Completion". Projected Completion is defined as the point in time the Government would consider the project complete. This milestone must have the Contract Completion Date (CCD) milestone as its only successor.
(f) Include as the last activity on the schedule a finish milestone titled "Contract Completion (CCD)" with constraint type "Must Finish No Later Than". Calculation of schedule updates must be such that if the finish of the "Projected Completion" milestone falls after the contract completion date, then negative float will be calculated on the longest path and if the finish of the "Projected Completion" milestone falls before the contract completion date, the float calculation must reflect positive float on the longest path. This milestone must be set to 5:00 pm.
(6) Provide lead time for major equipment.
1.3.1.2 Anticipated Weather Lost Work Days
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.
Assign the Weather Calendar to any activity that could be impacted by adverse weather. The Contracting Officer will issue a modification in accordance with the contract clauses, giving the Contractor a time extension for the difference of days between the anticipated and actual adverse weather delay if the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days anticipated for the month in which the delay occurs and the adverse weather delayed activities are on the longest path to contract completion in the period when delay occurred. A lost workday due to weather conditions is defined as a day in which the Contractor cannot work at least 50 percent of the day on the impacted activity.
Impacts resulting from adverse weather must be documented in Narrative Report for the month that it occurred.
Make changes to P6 project calendars to reflect as-built conditions where work occurred where originally anticipated as non-work days, and where
