BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE: Before preparing the bid, carefully read the Instructions to

Bidders. While preparing the bid, comply with the following:

COMPLETING THE BID SCHEDULE

Complete the Bid Schedule(s) by handwriting in ink or typing. Specify a Unit Bid Price, in figures with cents to only two decimal places, for each pay item in the Unit Bid Price column for which a quantity is given. Do not enter or tender a Unit Bid Price for any pay item for which no estimated quantity appears in the Bid Schedule. Determine the products of the respective unit prices and quantities, and show them, in figures, in the Amount Bid column. If a Unit Bid Price and Amount Bid have been inserted by the Government for a pay item, do not change the Unit Bid Price and Amount Bid for the pay item. Determine the Bid Total by adding the amounts of the several items, and show in the block provided on Page B-2. In case of multiplication errors, the Amount Bid for the item will be based on the Unit Bid Price.

To be eligible for award, bidders must submit prices for each pay item.

Review Subsection 109.05 of the FP (standard specifications book) regarding scope of payment for direct and indirect payment work.

Fill in the Bid Total as directed on the Bid Summary Page.

SCHEDULE OF WORK

The Bid Schedule is comprised of the following:

Schedule A - Pages B-1 thru B-2

COMPLETION OF WORK

The Government has estimated the number of calendar days necessary to complete all contract work from the effective date of the Notice To Proceed to contract completion for the various contract award scenarios. The maximum number of calendar days allowed (i.e., the contact performance period) is shown in Block 11 of the SF-1442 and described below.

The performance period to complete all Schedule A work will be 140 calendar days and will start on the effective date of Schedule A’s Notice to Proceed.

In developing a construction schedule to determine the number of calendar days, the Government considered and included the work limitations shown in Sections 108 and 156 of the FP and Special Contract Requirements (SCR’s). Specific work limitations may be (but are not limited to): National legal holidays, weekends, rush hours, night work, specified no work periods, work or traffic control phasing, etc. The Government also considered those work items that are weather sensitive and when those work items will be performed. Specific work items are (but not limited to): those that require a minimum ambient air temperature (asphalt paving and surface treatment, pavement striping, stone masonry, etc); those that require maintaining a minimum surface temperature (concrete pavement, structural concrete, painting, etc); and those that have specific planting seasons (turf establishment, sod, trees, plants, etc). The Government also considered time required for preparing material and drawing submittals, and the allowable Government review times for those submittals (Subsection 104.03 of the FP and SCR’s).

As stated in Subsection 108.01 of the Special Contract Requirements (J Pages), construction activities at the project site cannot begin any earlier than June 1, 2017.
