Purpose

The Range Project Construction Checklists provide the construction contractor and those involved in the construction quality oversight with a checklist of common items required during the construction phase of a range project. Range designers should also use the checklist to ensure that the design meets the interface required by the RDG. The Government should include the requirement for the contractor’s support of the inspections in the construction contract and discuss the inspection requirements at the construction kickoff meeting. The checklists are a quality assurance guide only and do not replace the Army publications (ARs, TCs, FMs, RDG, etc.).

Inspection Checklists

There is a checklist for each unique emplacement, feature, and facility that is included as part of any range and interfaces with the targetry system. Each range type has a CCI/TII checklist that combines all of the emplacements, features, and facilities that are standard on the specific range.

Use the checklist that is specific to each range type. The CCI/TII checklist portfolio includes the

CCI/TII range specific checklists.

Procedures

Each checklist item is marked preferred (P) or required (R) on the checklist. The checklist user should mark the “YES” or “NO” block after each item and write clarifying remarks in the

“NOTES” column when appropriate. Resolve the required items marked “NO” prior to continuing to the next project phase.

Construction Inspections

AR 350-19 mandates two inspections, a Construction Compliance Inspection (CCI), and a Target

Interface Inspection (TII) during the construction phase of a range project.

CCI

The CCI is an inspection to ensure the construction contractor understands the concept for constructing each target type. At the CCI, the contractor will provide one emplacement of each

D e s ig n G u type for inspection. (Mock-up emplacements must include all elements of work required for a fully constructed emplacement.) The CCI should occur early in the construction period to minimize re-work by the contractor. It is recommended that the contractor only purchase the materials necessary for the construction the emplacements demonstrated at the CCI.

TII

The TII is a final inspection conducted near the completion of the construction phase of a range project. The TII includes an inspection of all targets, features, and facilities interfaces required by the target system. This inspection validates the construction will interface with standard Army targetry. The transition between the construction contractor and the target installer is coordinated during the TII. The TII generates a list of all deficient interface items requiring correction with a designation of responsibility for the correction. A formal MFR Target Interface Inspection

Deficiencies List signed by the Government construction contract Contracting Officer (KO) or the Contracting Officers Representative (COR), verifying that all TII deficiencies have been corrected, must be submitted to the MCX prior to issuing notice to proceed to the target installer.

High Risk Projects

On projects with higher risks, consider requiring the submittal of a mock-up target emplacement to the MCX for review and approval prior to purchase of materials for all target emplacements.

High risk projects are those being constructed by contractors with very limited or no prior experience constructing ranges, projects constructed in locations where ranges have not been constructed through the MILCON program recently, or due to the importance of the project to the Army. The mock-up process benefits the construction contractor and the Government quality assurance representatives. The MCX may elect to conduct site visits in conjunction with the construction of the mock-up emplacements. These site visits provide a preconstruction brief on the MCX inspection process for the project with lessons learned and target interface requirements for the follow-on target contract.

DESIGN PHASE

The construction contractor must be made aware of the inspections and the construction contract must require him to support the inspection. The preconstruction conference should include the topic with a provision of the CCI/TII checklist. The inspection requirements should also be included in a Division 1 section of the construction contract specifications. The Quality Control section is the recommended location, or inserting a separate specification section to address other

Government inspection and quality assurance issues. The following sections include the suggested language specific to the range types (Small Arms or Maneuver Range, CACTF, Shoothouse, and UAC). Use only the language for the specific range type.
