SPECIAL CONDITIONS (NAU)

01/21

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 PAYMENT

Separate payment will not be made for compliance with this or any other Division 00 or Division 01 specification. All costs associated with these specifications shall be included in the applicable unit prices or lump-sum prices contained in the Bidding Schedule.

1.2 DEFINITIONS

The following terms are used throughout the contract documents. Except where a definition is provided with the specific occurrence, the following definitions apply to these terms.

a. Betterment. Any offer by the contractor, whether submitted as part of their proposal prior to award or as part of a deliverable after award which conforms to and exceeds the provisions of the contact.

A betterment offered prior to award becomes binding upon award of the contract. After award, a betterment offered becomes a binding contract requirement upon acceptance by the Government of the document proposing the betterment, whether specifically identified as such or not. Proposed betterments submitted after award must meet or exceed any betterments offered prior to award which were accepted as part of the award.

b. Host Nation (HN). The country where the construction work is being performed.

c. Host Nation Language. The Official Language recognized by the national government of the country where the work is performed. If no Official Language has been designated, or where multiple Official Languages have been designated, it is the predominant language of the Government agency responsible for operation and maintenance of the facility or product constructed under this contract.

1.3 ORDER OF PRECEDENCE

In the event of conflict or inconsistency between any of the provisions of this contract, precedence shall be given in the following order:

1. Clause 5152.236-9011, if that clause is part of this contract.

2. Any portions of the accepted proposal that both conform to and exceed the provisions of the solicitation (Betterment submitted prior to award).

3. Any portion of a contractor provided deliverable (including, but not limited to, plans, specifications, engineering studies and analyses, shop drawings, equipment installation drawings) that conforms to or exceeds the provisions of the contract (Betterment submitted after award).

4. Clause 52.236-21 Specifications and Drawings (Alt I)

DOCUMENT 00 74 01 Page 2

For the purposes of determining precedence, the contract will be interpreted as follows with regards to items which are considered to be within the intent and meaning of "drawings" and "specifications":

1. Sections starting with "00", including these Special Conditions

2. Section 01 00 00, including Section 01 10 10 Statement of Work (Summary of Work or Scope of Work) if included in the contract

3. All Other Specification Sections

4. Referenced Technical Standards (such as NFPA, UFC, ASTM, DIN)

5. Referenced Design Guides or other non-technical standards

6. Drawings

7. All other technical attachments to the contract, including Host Nation Technical Requirements, Standards, and References.

Amendments take precedence over all items listed above to the extent noted above and in the referenced clauses. For instance an amendment to a Drawing takes precedence over the original drawing but not over the Special Technical Requirements.

Requirements, including criteria, are minimum requisites.

In case of conflicting requirements within documents of the same precedence that cannot be resolved based on the above, the more stringent criteria governs. A conflict does NOT exist when both requirements can be met; in these instances the contractor shall comply with both requirements.

1.4 UNSOLICITED CHANGE PROPOSALS

Whenever the contractor proposes to change the work required by the contract, to add or subtract from the work requirements, unless that change has been specifically requested in writing via a written or oral Request for Proposal (RFP) by a Contracting Officer or, if appointed on this contract, an Administrative Contracting Officer, the proposal must be submitted either:

1. as a Value Engineering Change Proposal. See Specification Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES, paragraph DEVIATIONS, SUBSTITUTIONS, AND VARIATIONS and FAR clause 52.248-1 Value Engineering.

2. as a Request for Equitable Adjustment (REA) under DFAR 252.243-7002 Requests for Equitable Adjustment or a claim under FAR 52.233-1 Disputes.

The Government does not intend to respond to any other "request" for a Construction Change Order or proposal submitted by the contractor.

1.5 DOCUMENTS IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES

If this contract includes documents in English and additional languages, the English language version shall govern over all other languages. In the event contract documents contain translations into non-English languages, the translation is provided solely for convenience.

For all purposes, the English language version shall be the governing instrument and understanding of the parties. In the event of any conflict between the English language version and any translation into any other language, the English language version shall govern and

In the event a dispute results in litigation, including actions at the ASBCA or actions in U.S. courts, the contractor will be responsible for providing translations of any documents that are within the scope of a discovery request filed by the U.S. Government and for providing certified translations upon request by the U.S. Government.

The contractor shall bear sole responsibility for any costs associated with translation, as well as with any errors, omissions, or discrepancies between the original and English version of a document.

In the event of any difference between the English version and any other version in any language, the English version shall govern.

1.6.4 Additional Language Requirements

When any worker on site at any level (contractor, subcontractor, supplier, etc.) cannot communicate in English or a language spoken by the Contractor's key personnel, the contractor shall ensure that, at all times that person is on site, at least one person is present who can communicate to that worker in their native language.

The contractor is responsible for identifying and providing a comprehensive List of Required HN Permits.

Where the U.S. Government is required to obtain permits in accordance with Host Nation (HN) agreements, the Government will notify the contractor and the contractor shall prepare all necessary documentation. This includes providing documentation to show compliance with permit requirements.

1.7.3 Final Acceptance

DOCUMENT 00 74 01 Page 5

1.7.4 Third Party Inspection Requirements

If, as a condition of any permit or to comply with HN laws, codes, and regulations, inspections by third parties are required, the contractor shall be responsible for ensuring those inspections are conducted and documented. The contractor shall be solely responsible for any and all costs associated with these inspections, including the actual inspection and any additional work or rework identified as part of the inspection process, to include the replacement of any materials or equipment determined to be not in compliance by the inspector.

No adjustment in the contract price or duration will be made based on events arising from these inspections, unless a delay occurs which is completely beyond the control and without the fault of the contractor, in which case an adjustment in the contract duration may be made under the DEFAULTS clause of the contract.

TIME EXTENSIONS FOR UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER (NAU)

05/20

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 DETERMINATION OF UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER

This specification prescribes the procedures to be used on this contract for determination of time extensions for "unusually severe weather" in accordance with the contract clause 52.249-10 "Default: (Fixed Price Construction)".

In order for the Contracting Officer to award a time extension for "unusually severe weather" under this clause, all of the following conditions must be satisfied:

a. The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must exceed the weather which could reasonably be anticipated based on a minimum of 25 years of historical weather data.

b. The weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project or any specified contractual milestone beyond that which would reasonably be anticipated based on the contractors means and methods. The delay must result from events which are beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

c. The delay must occur during the contractual performance period.

1.2 MINIMIZING WEATHER IMPACTS

The contractor is responsible for identifying and implementing the means and methods to minimize the overall impact of weather during the contract period.

The means and methods and sequencing of work will impact the extent to which the work is sensitive to or may be impacted by the weather.

Separate payment will not be made for any costs associated with mitigating the impacts of weather.

1.3 INCORPORATION IN PROJECT SCHEDULE

The Contractor's project schedule must reflect reasonably anticipatable weather in weather dependent activities. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for identifying anticipated weather days based on the activities scheduled during a given time period and the means and methods of executing the work.

Activities in the project schedule must be assigned to a calendar with anticipated weather days shown as non-work days. Acceptance of the contractors schedule will not be considered acceptance of the reasonableness or validity of the number of anticipated weather days.

1.4 WEATHER CONDITIONS AT THE PROJECT SITE(S)

The Government makes no representation of the actual weather conditions to be expected at the site. No inference or conclusion shall be made regarding the actual weather conditions or the actual amount of weather delays based on any information included in the contract documents.

DOCUMENT 00 74 02 Page 2

The Contractor shall, prior to submitting a proposal or offer, be solely responsible for determining the actual weather conditions prevalent at the project site or sites and accounting for this information in their proposal or offer.

PART 2 PRODUCTS

Not Used

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 REPORTING

Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and continuing throughout the contract performance period, the contractor will record on the CQC report the occurrence of weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Impacted activities shall be identified by name and activity id on the CQC report.

When the use of RMS-CM (Section 01 45 01 RESIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - CONTRACTOR MODE) is required by the contract, weather shall be reported on the QC Report in RMS-CM and tracked therein.

3.2 OCCURRENCE OF ACTUAL DELAY

To be considered a day of actual weather delay, progress on critical path activities must be less than 50 percent of the progress scheduled to occur on that day, and the progress must be impacted due solely to the weather.

The delay must be recorded in accordance with paragraph 3.1: failure to provide this information at the time of the preparation of the CQC report will be considered an acknowledgement that no delay existed, however reporting on the CQC report will not automatically be considered concurrence by the Government that delay occurred and it was due solely to the weather.

Failure to make adequate preparations for weather or to adequately protect the work from reasonably anticipatable weather will not be considered an impact due solely to weather.

3.3 CALCULATION OF DELAY AND CONVERSION TO CALENDAR DAYS

Any adjustment in the contract period of performance resulting from unusually severe weather will be based upon the weather over a minimum period of six months.

The contractor shall be solely responsible for providing documentation to substantiate that the actual weather was "unusually severe" based on a minimum of 25 years of historical weather data, the critical path was impacted as a result, and the actual impact to the critical path could not have been prevented through reasonably prudent measures.

As part of this documentation, the contractor must substantiate the reasonableness of anticipated weather days included in the schedule as discussed in paragraph 1.3 INCORPORATION IN PROJECT SCHEDULE. Failure to substantiate the reasonableness of the anticipated weather days may result in a determination that the contractor failed to adequately plan and execute the work in a manner consistent with the requirements of the contract, making the delay within their control.

Additionally, the contractor shall provide a detailed listing of all weather days occurring from the Notice to Proceed through the date of the request and show a cumulative net impact to the performance period

DOCUMENT 00 74 02 Page 3 exceeding that which could be anticipated based on the aforementioned 25 years of historical weather data.

Any calculation performed within RMS-CM under the "Weather Delays" screens of the QA/QC Module shall not serve as the basis for determining the amount of adjustment required.

3.4 ISSUANCE OF MODIFICATION

If the contractor can substantiate an impact to the completion date of the project based on actual "unusually severe" weather as described herein, the Contracting Officer will convert any qualifying delays to calendar days, giving full consideration for equivalent fair weather work days, and issue a modification in accordance with the contract clause 52.249-10 entitled "Default (Fixed Price Construction)".

3.5 DELAYS OUTSIDE STANDARD WORK DAYS

Weather delays occurring prior to Notice to Proceed, during non-working days, and after the required completion date are not excusable under the Defaults clause.

When the contract performance period, or any extension thereof, has passed, no extensions for unusually severe weather will be granted.

This applies as well to any interim milestone or completion date.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS (NAU)

01/21

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 PURPOSE

This specification provides general requirements which the contractor shall follow during the execution of the work. As they are general in nature, specific requirements identified in any other portions of the contract, including in other Division 01 specifications, shall take precedence in the event of a conflict. In this context, a conflict exists only when both requirements cannot be met; if both can be met there is no conflict and the contractor shall comply with both requirements.

1.2 DESIGN AND DESIGN RELATED WORK

1.2.1 Design-Build Language

References in the Division 00 and 01 specifications to "design-build" are not applicable to Job Order Contract (JOC) task orders.

Nothing in the aforementioned specifications shall be interpreted to require design effort unless required by other contract documents.

Where contract documents refer to contractor prepared designs, "design-build" requirements identified in these specifications apply.

1.2.2 Design Related Activities

Design related activities, including extensions of design and shop drawings, required to perform the work and comply with other technical requirements are considered part of this contract and shall be included in the contractors pricing. No separate or additional payment will be made for the performance of this effort.

1.2.3 Performance Requirements

Where this contract includes performance requirements or otherwise establishes parameters such as operating parameters, sequences of operation, or coordination of equipment or systems, that requires the contractor to identify, size, select, prepare and submit for review or approval equipment and materials, the contractor is required to perform all efforts necessary to accomplish this effort as part of the contract.

1.3 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;

submittals not having a "G" designation are for Contractor Quality Control approval. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Submit the following in accordance with Section 01 33 00

SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:

SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals

1.4 DEFINITIONS

The following definitions apply to terms as used in the Division 01 specification sections. These definitions shall not change or infer a meaning in any other document made part of this contract either directly or via reference.

Fugitive Dust. Solid particles generated by the forces of wind or machinery acting upon materials exposed as a result of the contractors operations

Installation. The entity considered to be the legal owner or authorized user of the location of the construction work.

Project. A "Project" is a single task or delivery order under an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity award, including Job Order Contracts (JOC's) and Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOCs). For all other contracts, it refers to a single contract award.

Superintendent. The highest level manager responsible for the overall construction activities on a project, including quality and production. The Superintendent maintains a physical presence at the site at all times work is being performed and is responsible for all construction and related activities at the site, except as otherwise acceptable to the Contracting Officer.

Site. The location where construction work physically occurs. On a single project, when construction work occurs at more than one location, and the locations are geographically separated by more than 5 kilometers (as measured via travel distance), they are considered separate sites.

1.5 NO WAIVER BY GOVERNMENT

The failure of the Government, in any one or more instances, to insist upon the strict performance of any of the terms of this Contract or to exercise any option herein conferred shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment to any extent of the right to assert or rely upon such terms or option on any future occasion.

1.6 PROPRIETARY NAMES

Unless specifically identified in the contract as a Sole Source Item, manufacturer's proprietary names indicated for colors, textures and patterns of materials are for the purpose of color, texture and pattern selection only. Other materials are acceptable provided they closely approximate colors, textures and patterns indicated. Any substitutions must conform to all other requirements and must be approved by the Contracting Officer

1.7 PUBLIC RELEASE OF INFORMATION

1.7.1 Prohibition

There shall be no public release of information, documents, or photographs concerning any aspect of the materials or services relating

SECTION 01 30 01 Page 4 to this project without the prior written approval of the Contracting Officer.

1.7.2 Subcontracts and Purchase Orders

The Contractor agrees to insert the substance of above paragraph "Prohibition" in each subcontract and purchase order generated for this contract.

1.8 PERSONNEL AND SUBCONTRACTORS

1.8.1 Removal for Non-Compliance

All Quality Control, Safety, Superintendents, and contractor/subcontractor personnel are subject to dismissal and removal at any time based on the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer for non-compliance with the contract requirements.

Furthermore, the Contracting Officer may issue an order stopping all or part of the work until satisfactory corrective action has been taken.

No part of the time lost due to such stop orders is acceptable as the subject of claim for extension of time for excess costs or damages by the Contractor.

1.8.2 Substitution and Replacement

Any in-house personnel, subcontractors, and outside associates or consultants identified in the Contractor’s proposal shall not be replaced or changed without the Contracting Officer's prior written consent.

1.8.3 Qualifications

When qualifications require experience or “related experience”, the experience must be on projects of the same type and nature as the work identified in the project scope of work, and be on contracts with the government of the United States of America, either with the US Army Corps of Engineers or Department of Defense agencies. References and experience must be sufficiently detailed to allow for verification of experience. The Contracting Officer shall have final authority on determining the relevance of any experience submitted.

1.8.4 Employment

Should the continued employment of any person in connection with this contract, or any subcontract hereunder, be deemed by the Contracting Officer to be prejudicial to the interests of the Government, that person shall immediately be removed from the work site. In this connection the Contractor agrees that:

a. Cases which may involve disciplinary action against such persons, or the necessity of reassignment or termination of their services, shall be investigated, processed, reported and disposed of, as directed by the Contracting Officer.

b. Employment contracts of all persons employed in connection with this contract or any subcontract hereunder shall include clauses containing the substance of this section.

1.9 REFERENCES

The publications listed below form a part of this specification to the extent referenced. The publications are referred to within the text by the basic designation only.

1.10 REFERENCED STANDARDS

1.10.1 Version and Date of Standard

The contract documents make various references to Host Nation and US standards, including Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) and design guides. When a specific version (e.g. "UFC x-xxx-xx, with Change yy") or date is identified in the reference, that specific version of the reference will apply. Where no date or version is specified, the version applicable to the contract shall be the earlier of either:

1. The date of the initial Request for Proposal (RFP) or solicitation for the project. For a MATOC, JOC, or other delivery order type contract, the RFP date refers to the date indicated on the RFP letter for the task order.

2. The date identified on the title page of Section 01 10 10 Statement of Work.

Generic language, such as "the most recent version" or "the most current version" shall be interpreted as indicated above.

1.10.2 Host Nation Standards

Where reference is made in the contract to Host Nation Standards, for example the Deutsches Institut für Normung e.V. (DIN; in English, the German Institute for Standardization) and The European Committee for Standardization or Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN) (EN Standards), whether such standards are incorporated into the contract in full text or by reference, the standard applies only to establish a technical standard or level of performance or quality and does not create substantive rights under the contract.

All costs required to comply with these standards shall be included in the contract price, including the performance of any additional work, such as “associated” and “special” tasks. Notwithstanding any language in any standard, the requirement to provide any necessary material, item of equipment or work, rests with the contractor unless another contract provision explicitly states that such will be government furnished.

When referenced standards within the same Order of Preference are in conflict with each other (such as when a US Standard conflicts with a European or Host Nation standard within the same specification section), Host Nation Standard shall govern unless otherwise specified within the contract documents. A conflict does not exist when standards require separate methods or performance and both are achievable. In these situations, the contractor shall comply with both standards.

1.10.3 Equivalency of References

Where the contract allows for Host Nation standards to be used in lieu of a specific US Standard, but does not specifically identify by name or title the standard being referenced, the contractor must identify the specific Host Nation standard and show the equivalency of the standard.

SECTION 01 30 01 Page 6

1.11 PRECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE

After award of the contract but prior to commencement of any work at the site, meet with the Contracting Officer to discuss and develop a mutual understanding relative to the administration of the contract, including quality and safety programs, preparation of the schedule of prices or earned value report, shop drawings, and other submittals, scheduling programming, prosecution of the work, and clear expectations of the "Interim DD Form 1354" Submittal. Major subcontractors who will engage in the work must also attend.

1.12 PARTNERING

To most effectively accomplish this contract, the Government requires the formation of a cohesive partnership within the Project Team whose members are from the Government, the Contractor and their Subcontractors. Key personnel from the Supported Command, the End User (who will occupy the facility), Subject Matter Experts, the Installation, the Contractor and Subcontractors, and the Designer of Record will be invited to participate in the Partnering process. The Partnership will draw on the strength of each organization in an effort to achieve a project that is without any safety mishaps, conforms to the Contract, and stays within budget and on schedule.

Each participant bears their own costs for meals, lodging, and transportation associated with the Partnering sessions.

The Contracting Officer will provide information on the Partnering Process and a list of key and optional personnel who should attend the Partnering meeting. Partnering will be accomplished via the methodology indicated in the following table.
