About this file
This solicitation seeks proposals to replace domestic water pumps and piping at Building 420 at Schriever Air Force Base. Rather than two large pumps, the project will install a combination of small, medium, and jockey pumps operating on variable frequency drives to cover a wider flow range from 100 to 600 gallons per minute. Three medium pumps will meet maximum day demand plus fire flow demand, while a fourth identical medium pump will serve as standby. An existing 2012 diesel fire pump will remain as backup. The contractor will install all new steel piping sized for flows from the new pumps, along with valves and fittings. AECOM developed hydraulic models to verify pump head, turndown, and distribution pressures of 84 psi for normal flow and 110 psi for fire flow. The contractor must also install a new easily accessible fire department connection for the fire department. Proposals are due within 30 days of solicitation posting on February 15, 2019.

1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.2.1 Project Description
The work includes replacing pumps, piping, and appurtenances in Building 420 as shown in the drawings. Included in this work is the bypass pumping required during demolition and construction to continue to deliver water to the Schriever AFB distribution system.
The pump station is the only source of water for Schriever AFB. As such, it is up to the Contractor to work with the Contracting Officer to devise a plan that minimizes service interruptions and ensures the continued supply of water to meet the demands within the distribution system. A conceptual plan of locating the bypass piping and using pumps WS-2, FP-WS3, WS3, and WS4 to maintain service is described in the drawings; however, it is up to the Contractor to develop a Construction Work Plan that details how the bypass will be routed and operated, how long the water service will be offline to connect the bypass and make the final connection after the new piping is installed. This Plan will be submitted to the Contracting Officer for approval prior to beginning construction operations.
The Contractor shall provide Construction Services to demolish and replace the existing pumps and piping shown on the drawings. The pumps will be replaced as shown on the drawings and specifications. The piping system and appurtenances will be replaced without design modifications. It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure the new pipes and appurtenances match the existing pipes and appurtenances except as required to accommodate the new pumping system. Steel pipe outside the building will be replaced up to 10 feet from the wall. Contractor will field verify the position of the pipes during construction. Buried steel pipe will include cathodic protection as shown in the drawings. All Construction Services will adhere to new or revised AF standards. All Building 420 restoration design is to be performed in compliance with applicable sustainability policies and codes and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

The Government intends to use Primavera P6.
3.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Prepare for approval a Project Schedule, as specified herein, pursuant to FAR Clause 52.236-15, SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS. Show in the schedule the proposed sequence to perform the work and dates contemplated for starting and completing all schedule activities. The scheduling of the entire project is required. Scheduling is the responsibility of the Contractor. Contractor's management personnel must actively participate in its development. Subcontractors working on the project must also contribute in developing and maintaining an accurate Project Schedule. Provide a schedule that is a forward planning as well as a project monitoring tool.
Use the Critical Path Method (CPM) of network calculation to generate all Project Schedules. Prepare each Project Schedule using the Precedence Diagram Method (PDM).
3.2 BASIS FOR PAYMENT AND COST LOADING
The schedule is the basis for determining contract earnings during each update period and therefore the amount of each progress payment. The aggregate value of all activities coded to a contract CLIN must equal the value of the CLIN.
3.2.1 Activity Cost Loading
Activity cost loading must be reasonable and without front-end loading.
Provide additional documentation to demonstrate reasonableness if requested by the CO.
3.2.2 Withholdings / Payment Rejection
Failure to meet the requirements of this specification may result in the disapproval of the preliminary, initial or periodic schedule updates and subsequent rejection of payment requests until compliance is met.
If the CO directs schedule revisions and those revisions have not been included in subsequent Project Schedule revisions or updates, the CO may withhold 10 percent of pay request amount from each payment period until such revisions to the project schedule have been made.
3.3 PROJECT SCHEDULE DETAILED REQUIREMENTS
3.3.1 Level of Detail Required
Develop the Project Schedule to the appropriate level of detail to address major milestones and to allow for satisfactory project planning and execution. Failure to develop the Project Schedule to an appropriate level of detail will result in its disapproval. The CO will consider, but is not limited to, the following characteristics and requirements to determine appropriate level of detail:
3.3.2 Activity Durations
Section 01 32 01.00 10 Page 3
Reasonable activity durations are those that allow the progress of ongoing activities to be accurately determined between update periods. Less than 2 percent of all non-procurement activities may have Original Durations (OD) greater than 20 work days or 30 calendar days.
3.3.3 Procurement Activities
Include activities associated with the critical submittals and their approvals, procurement, fabrication, and delivery of long lead materials, equipment, fabricated assemblies, and supplies.

7 CATW 1 Category of work
8 FOW 20 Feature of work*
*The notation shown is for Primavera P6.
3.3.6.1 Workers Per Day (WRKP)
Assign Workers per Day for all field construction or direct work activities, if directed by the CO. Workers per day is based on the average number of workers expected each day to perform a task for the duration of that activity.
3.3.6.2 Responsible Party Coding (RESP)
Assign responsibility code for all activities to the Prime Contractor, Subcontractor(s) or Government agency(ies) responsible for performing the activity.
a. Activities coded with a Government Responsibility code include, but are not limited to: Government approvals, Government design reviews, environmental permit approvals by State regulators, Government Furnished Property/Equipment (GFP) and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.
b. Activities cannot have more than one Responsibility Code. Examples of acceptable activity code values are: DOR (for the designer of record);
ELEC (for the electrical subcontractor); MECH (for the mechanical subcontractor); and GOVT (for AFCEC).
3.3.6.3 Area of Work Coding (AREA)
Assign Work Area code to activities based upon the work area in which the activity occurs. Define work areas based on resource constraints or space constraints that would preclude a resource, such as a particular trade or
Section 01 32 01.00 10 Page 5 craft work crew from working in more than one work area at a time due to restraints on resources or space. Examples of Work Area Coding include different areas within a floor of a building, different floors within a building, and different buildings within a complex of buildings. Activities cannot have more than one Work Area Code.
Not all activities are required to be Work Area coded. A lack of Work Area coding indicates the activity is not resource or space constrained.
3.3.6.4 Modification Number (MODF)
Assign a Modification Number Code to any activity or sequence of activities added to the schedule as a result of a Contract Modification, when approved by CO. Key all Code values to the Government's modification numbering system. An activity can have only one Modification Number Code.
3.3.6.5 Bid Item Coding (BIDI)
Assign a Bid Item Code to all activities using the Contract Line Item Schedule (CLIN) to which the activity belongs, even when an activity is not cost loaded. An activity can have only one BIDI Code.
3.3.6.6 Phase of Work Coding (PHAS)
Assign Phase of Work Code to all activities. Examples of phase of work are procurement phase and construction phase. Each activity can have only one Phase of Work code.
a. Code proposed fast track design and construction phases proposed to allow filtering and organizing the schedule by fast track design and construction packages.
b. If the contract specifies phasing with separately defined performance periods, identify a Phase Code to allow filtering and organizing the schedule accordingly.
3.3.6.7 Category of Work Coding (CATW)
Assign a Category of Work Code to all activities. Category of Work Codes include, but are not limited to procurement, fabrication, weather sensitive installation, non-weather sensitive installation, start-up, and testing activities. Each activity can have no more than one Category of Work Code.
3.3.6.8 Feature of Work Coding (FOW)
Assign a Feature of Work Code to appropriate activities based on the Definable Feature of Work to which the activity belongs based on the approved QC plan.
Definable Feature of Work is defined in Section 01 45 00.00 10 QUALITY CONTROL. An activity can have only one Feature of Work Code.
3.3.7 Contract Milestones and Constraints
Milestone activities are to be used for significant project events including, but not limited to, project phasing, project start and end
Section 01 32 01.00 10 Page 6 activities, or interim completion dates. The use of artificial float constraints such as "zero free float" or "zero total float" are prohibited.
Mandatory constraints that ignore or effect network logic are prohibited.
No constrained dates are allowed in the schedule other than those specified herein. Submit additional constraints to the CO for approval on a case by case basis.
3.3.7.1 Project Start Date Milestone and Constraint
The first activity in the project schedule must be a start milestone titled "NTP Acknowledged," which must have a "Start On" constraint date equal to the date that the NTP is acknowledged.
3.3.7.2 End Project Finish Milestone and Constraint
The last activity in the schedule must be a finish milestone titled "End Project."
Constrain the project schedule to the Contract Completion Date in such a way that if the schedule calculates an early finish, then the float calculation for "End Project" milestone reflects positive float on the longest path. If the project schedule calculates a late finish, then the "End Project" milestone float calculation reflects negative float on the longest path.
The Government is under no obligation to accelerate Government activities to support a Contractor's early completion.
3.3.7.3 Interim Completion Dates and Constraints
Constrain contractually specified interim completion dates to show negative float when the calculated late finish date of the last activity in that phase is later than the specified interim completion date.
3.3.7.3.1 Start Phase
Use a start milestone as the first activity for a project phase. Call the start milestone "Start Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.
3.3.7.3.2 End Phase
Use a finish milestone as the last activity for a project phase. Call the finish milestone "End Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.
3.3.8 Calendars
Schedule activities on a Calendar to which the activity logically belongs.
Develop calendars to accommodate any contract defined work period such as a 7-day calendar for Government Acceptance activities, concrete cure times, etc. Develop the default Calendar to match the physical work plan with non-work periods identified including weekends and holidays. Develop Seasonal Calendar(s) and assign to seasonally affected activities as applicable.
If an activity is weather sensitive, it should be assigned to a calendar showing non-work days on a monthly basis, with the non-work days selected at random across the weeks of the calendar, using the anticipated days provided in the contract clause TIME EXTENSIONS FOR UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER. Assign non-work days over a seven-day week as weather records are compiled on
Section 01 32 01.00 10 Page 7 seven-day weeks, which may cause some of the weather-related non-work days to fall on weekends.
3.3.9 Open Ended Logic
Only two open ended activities are allowed: the first activity "NTP Acknowledged" may have no predecessor logic, and the last activity -"End Project" may have no successor logic.
Predecessor open ended logic may be allowed in a time impact analyses upon the CO's approval.
3.3.10 Default Progress Data Disallowed
Actual Start and Finish dates must not automatically update with default mechanisms included in the scheduling software. Updating of the percent complete and the remaining duration of any activity must be independent functions. Disable program features that calculate one of these parameters from the other. Activity Actual Start (AS) and Actual Finish (AF) dates assigned during the updating process must match those dates provided in the Contractor Quality Control Reports. Failure to document the AS and AF dates in the Daily Quality Control report will result in disapproval of the Contractor's schedule.
3.3.11 Out-of-Sequence Progress
Activities that have progressed before all preceding logic has been satisfied (Out-of-Sequence Progress) will be allowed only on a case-by-case basis subject to approval by the CO. Propose logic corrections to eliminate out of sequence progress or justify not changing the sequencing for approval prior to submitting an updated project schedule. Address out of sequence progress or logic changes in the Narrative Report and in the periodic schedule update meetings.
3.3.12 Added and Deleted Activities
Do not delete activities from the project schedule or add new activities to the schedule without approval from the CO. Activity ID and description changes are considered new activities and cannot be changed without CO approval.
3.3.13 Original Durations
Activity Original Durations (OD) must be reasonable to perform the work item. OD changes are prohibited unless justification is provided and approved by the CO.
3.3.14 Leads, Lags, and Start to Finish Relationships
Lags must be reasonable as determined by the Government and not used in place of realistic original durations, must not be in place to artificially absorb float, or to replace proper schedule logic.
a. Leads (negative lags) are prohibited.
b. Start to Finish (SF) relationships are prohibited.
Section 01 32 01.00 10 Page 8
3.3.15 Retained Logic
Schedule calculations must retain the logic between predecessors and successors ("retained logic" mode) even when the successor activity(s) starts, and the predecessor activity(s) has not finished (out-of-sequence progress). Software features that in effect sever the tie between predecessor and successor activities when the successor has started, and the predecessor logic is not satisfied ("progress override") are not be allowed.
3.3.16 Percent Complete
Update the percent complete for each activity started, based on the realistic assessment of earned value. Activities which are complete but for remaining minor punch list work and which do not restrain the initiation of successor activities may be declared 100 percent complete to allow for proper schedule management.
3.3.17 Remaining Duration
Update the remaining duration for each activity based on the number of estimated work days it will take to complete the activity. Remaining duration may not mathematically correlate with percentage found under paragraph entitled Percent Complete.
3.3.18 Cost Loading of Closeout Activities
Cost load the "Correction of punch list from Government pre-final inspection" activity(ies) not less than 1 percent of the present contract value. Activity(ies) may be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's verification of completion and correction of all punch list work identified during Government pre-final inspection(s).
3.3.18.1 As-Built Drawings
If there is no separate contract line item (CLIN) for as-built drawings, cost load the "Submission and approval of as-built drawings" activity not less than $35,000 or 1 percent of the present contract value, which ever is greater, up to $200,000. Activity will be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's approval.
3.3.18.2 O & M Manuals
Cost load the "Submission and approval of O & M manuals" activity not less than $20,000. Activity will be declared 100 percent complete upon the Government's approval of all O & M manuals.
3.3.19 Anticipated Adverse Weather
Reflect the number of anticipated adverse weather delays allocated to a weather sensitive activity in the activity's calendar.
3.3.20 Early Completion Schedule and the Right to Finish Early
An Early Completion Schedule is an Initial Project Schedule (IPS) that indicates all scope…
