PART 2 GENERAL

SUMMARY – NOT APPLICABLE

REFERENCES – NOT APPLICABLE

DEFINITIONS:

Submittal: A submittal is a package of project information, samples, drawings, schedules, certificates, etc., submitted to the Contracting Officer for Government review.

Deviation: A specific submittal where an item is identified as not agreeing with the contract requirements and the Contractor is requesting a substitution or change.

Approval/Disapproval: Specific judgments reserved to the Government concerning a submittal's compliance with the plans and specifications.

PURPOSE: Submittals are directed for the convenience of the Government in reviewing the Contractor's planned approach and compliance with the requirements of the contract. It is also a mechanism whereby the Contractor may propose deviations, color choices, shop drawings, etc., at an early point in the contract where changes in approach will have less impact on the materials ordering process.

SUBMITTAL CLASSIFICATION: Submittals are classified as follows:

Government Approved (GA): Governmental approval is required for extensions of design, critical materials, deviations, equipment whose compatibility with the entire system must be checked, and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer.

Information Only (FIO): All submittals not requiring Government approval will be for information only. They are not considered to be "shop drawings" within the terms of 1.3.1 SUBMITTAL paragraph referred to above.

APPROVED SUBMITTALS: The approval of submittals by the Contracting Officer shall not be construed as a complete check, but will indicate only that the general method of construction, materials, detailing and other information are satisfactory. Approval will not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for any error which may exist, as the Contractor under the CQC requirements of this contract, is responsible for the dimensions and design of adequate connections, details and satisfactory construction of all work. After submittals have been approved by the Contracting Officer, no resubmittal for the purpose of substituting materials or equipment will be given consideration unless accompanied by an explanation as to why a substitution is necessary.

DISAPPROVED SUBMITTALS: The Contractor shall make all corrections required by the Contracting Officer and promptly furnish a corrected submittal in the form and number of copies as specified for the initial submittal. If the Contractor considers any correction indicated on the submittals to constitute a change to the contract, notice shall be given promptly in writing to the Contracting Officer.

WITHHOLDING OF PAYMENT: Payment for materials incorporated in the work will not be made if required approvals have not been obtained.

PART 3 PRODUCTS – NOT APPLICABLE PART 4 EXECUTION

SCHEDULING

Contractor shall submit Shop Drawings and Material Submittals within fourteen (14) calendar days after date of receipt of notice to proceed. Each submittal shall be scheduled and coordinated with the Progress Schedule in order to obtain Government approval prior to the acquisition of the material or equipment covered by the submittal. Fourteen (14) calendar days, exclusive of any mailing time, shall be allowed for Government review of submittals or resubmittals.

SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:

All submittals shall be accomplished on and in accordance with instructions pertaining to AF Form 3000, Material Approval Submittal, except as otherwise directed herein. These forms will be furnished to the Contractor. This form shall be properly completed by filling out all the heading blank spaces and identifying each item submitted. Special care will be exercised to ensure proper listing of the specification paragraph and/or sheet number of the contract drawings pertinent to the data submitted for each item.

Forward all submittals directly to the Contracting Officer, 1655 Selfridge Ave., Bldg. 5450, JBSA-Lackland, Texas, 78236.

Submittals shall be made in four (4) sets except as otherwise noted. One copy of each submittal will be returned to the Contractor.

DEVIATIONS: All requests for deviations shall be clearly identified by the Contractor on AF Form 3000. The Contractor shall set forth in writing the reason for any deviations and annotate such deviations on the submittal. The Government reserves the right to rescind inadvertent approval of submittals containing unnoticed deviations.

GOVERNMENT APPROVED SUBMITTALS: Upon completion of review of submittals requiring Government approval (GA), the appropriate blocks on the AF Form 3000 will be completed by the Government, including signature(s) and dates, indicating approval or disapproval of the submittal. One (1) copy of the submittal and AF Form 3000 will be returned to the Contractor.

INFORMATION ONLY SUBMITTALS: Normally submittals for information only will not be returned. Government approval is not required on information only submittals. These submittals will be used for information purposes. The Government reserves the right to require the Contractor to resubmit any item found not to comply with the Contract. This does not relieve the Contractor from the obligation to furnish material conforming to the plans and specifications and will not prevent the Government from requiring removal and replacement if nonconforming material is incorporated in the work. This does not relieve the Contractor of the requirement to furnish samples for testing by the Government laboratory or check testing by the Government in those instances where the technical specifications so prescribe.

STAMPS: Stamps used by the Contractor on the submittal data to certify that the submittal meets contract requirements shall be similar to the following:

(Firm Name)

Approved

Approved with corrections as noted on submittal data and/or attached sheets(s).

EXECUTION

A.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: A Project Schedule as described below shall be prepared. The scheduling of construction shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. Contractor management personnel shall actively participate in its development. Subcontractors and suppliers, subcontractors and suppliers working on the project shall also contribute in developing and maintaining an accurate Project Schedule. The approved Project Schedule shall be used to measure the progress of the work, to aid in evaluating time extensions, and to provide the basis of all progress payments.

B BASIS FOR PAYMENT: The schedule shall be the basis for measuring Contractor progress. Lack of an approved schedule or scheduling personnel will result in an inability of the Contracting Officer to evaluate Contractor's progress for the purposes of payment. Failure of the Contractor to provide all information, as specified below, shall result in the disapproval of the entire Project Schedule submission and the inability of the Contracting Officer to evaluate Contractor progress for payment purposes. In the case where Project Schedule revisions have been directed by the Contracting Officer and those revisions have not been included in the Project Schedule, the Contracting Officer may hold retainage up to the maximum allowed by Contract, each payment period, until revisions to the Project Schedule have been made.

Project Schedule: The computer software system utilized by the Contractor to produce the Project Schedule shall be capable of providing all requirements of this specification. Failure of the Contractor to meet the requirements of this specification shall result in the disapproval of the schedule. Manual methods used to produce any required information shall require approval by the Contracting Officer.
Use of the Critical Path Method: The Critical Path Method (CPM) of network calculation shall be used to generate the Project Schedule. The Contractor shall provide the Project Schedule in the Precedence Diagram Method (PDM) or equivalent.
Level of Detail Required: The Project Schedule shall include an appropriate level of detail. Failure to develop or update the Project Schedule or provide data to the Contracting Officer at the appropriate level of detail, as specified by the Contracting Officer, shall result in the disapproval of the schedule. The Contracting Officer will use, but is not limited to the following conditions to determine the appropriate level of detail to be used in the Project Schedule:
Activity Durations: Contractor submissions shall follow the direction of the Contracting Officer regarding reasonable activity durations. Reasonable durations are those that allow the progress of activities to be accurately determined between payment periods (usually less than 2 percent of all non-procurement activities' Original Durations are greater than 20 days).
Procurement Activities: Tasks related to the procurement of long lead materials or equipment shall be included as separate activities in the project schedule. Long lead materials and equipment are those materials that have a procurement cycle of over 90 days. Examples of procurement process activities include, but are not limited to: submittals, approvals, procurement, fabrication, and delivery.
Critical Activities: The following activities shall be listed as separate line activities on the Contractor's project schedule:
Pre-final inspection.

Correction of punch list from pre-final inspection.

Final inspection.

Construction phasing.

Government Activities: Government and other agency activities that could impact progress shall be shown. These activities include, but are not limited to: approvals, approvals, design reviews, environmental permit approvals by State regulators, inspections, and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.
Responsibility: All activities shall be identified in the project schedule by the party responsible to perform the work. Responsibility includes, but is not limited to, the subcontracting firm, contractor work force, or government agency performing a given task. Activities shall not belong to more than one responsible party. The responsible party for each activity shall be identified by the Responsibility Code.
Work Areas: All activities shall be identified in the project schedule by the work area in which the activity occurs. Activities shall not be allowed to cover more than one work area. The work area of each activity shall be identified by the Work Area Code.

Modification or Claim Number: Any activity that is added or changed by contract modification or used to justify claimed time shall be identified by a mod or claim code that changed the activity. Activities shall not belong to more than one modification or claim item. The modification or claim number of each activity shall

Be identified by the Mod or Claim Number. Whenever possible, changes shall be added to the schedule by adding new activities. Existing activities shall not normally be changed to reflect modifications.

Feature of Work: All activities shall be identified in the project schedule according to the feature of work to which the activity belongs. Feature of work refers, but is not limited to, a work breakdown structure for the project. The feature of work for each activity shall be identified by the Feature of Work Code.
Scheduled Project Completion: The schedule interval shall extend from NTP to the Contract completion date.
Project Start Date: The schedule shall start no earlier than the date on which the NTP was acknowledged. The Contractor shall include as the first activity in the project schedule an activity called "Start Project". The "Start Project" activity shall have an "ES" constraint date equal to the date that the NTP was acknowledged, and a zero day duration.
Constraint of Last Activity: Completion of the last activity in the schedule shall be constrained by the contract completion date. Calculation on project updates shall be such that if the early finish of the last activity falls after the contract completion date, then the float calculation shall reflect a negative float on the critical path. The Contractor shall include as the last activity in the project schedule an activity called "End Project". The "End Project" activity shall have an "LF" constraint date equal to the completion date for the project, and a zero day duration.

Early Project Completion: In the event the project schedule shows completion of the project prior to the contract completion date, the Contractor shall identify those activities that have been accelerated and/or those activities that are scheduled in parallel to support the Contractor's "early" completion. Contractor shall specifically address each of the activities noted in the narrative report at every project schedule update period to assist the Contracting Officer in evaluating the Contractor's ability to actually complete prior to the Contract period.

Interim Completion Dates: Contractually specified interim completion dates shall also be constrained to show negative float if the early finish date of the last activity in that phase falls after the interim completion date.
Start Phase: The Contractor shall include as the first activity for a project phase an activity called "Start Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work. The "Start Phase X" activity shall have an "ES" constraint date equal to the date on which the NTP was acknowledged, and a zero day duration.

End Phase: The Contractor shall include as the last activity in a project phase an activity called "End Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work. The "End Phase X" activity shall have an "LF" constraint date equal to the completion date for the project, and a zero day duration.

Phase X: The Contractor shall include a hammock type activity for each project phase called "Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work. The "Phase X" activity shall be logically tied to the earliest and latest activities in the phase.
Default Progress Data Disallowed: Actual Start and Finish dates shall not be automatically updated by default mechanisms that may be included in CPM scheduling software systems. Actual Start and Finish dates on the CPM schedule shall match those dates provided from Contractor Quality Control Reports. Failure of the Contractor to

document the Actual Start and Finish dates on the Daily Quality Control report for every in-progress or completed activity, and failure to ensure that the data contained on the Daily Quality Control reports is the sole basis for schedule updating shall result in the disapproval of the Contractor's schedule and the inability of the Contracting Officer to evaluate Contractor progress for payment purposes. Updating of the percent complete and the remaining duration of any activity shall be independent functions. Program features which calculate one of these parameters from the other shall be disabled.

Out-of-Sequence Progress: Activities that have posted progress without all preceding logic being satisfied (Out-of-Sequence Progress) will be allowed only on a case-by-case approval of the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall propose logic corrections to eliminate all out of sequence progress or justify not changing the sequencing for approval prior to submitting an updated project schedule.

Negative Lags: Lag durations contained in the project schedule shall not have a negative value.

Project Schedule Submissions: The Contractor shall provide the submissions as described below. The data reports and network diagrams required for each submission are contained in paragraph SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS.
Preliminary Project Schedule Submission: The Preliminary Project Schedule, defining the Contractor's planned operations shall be submitted for approval within 10 calendar days after the NTP is acknowledged. The approved preliminary schedule shall be used for payment purposes not to exceed the first 30 calendar days after NTP.
Initial Project Schedule Submission: The Initial Project Schedule shall be submitted for approval within 30 calendar days after NTP. The schedule shall provide a reasonable sequence of activities which represent work through the entire project and shall be at a reasonable level of detail.

Periodic Schedule Updates: Based on the result of progress meetings, specified in "Periodic Progress Meetings," the Contractor shall submit periodic schedule updates. These submissions shall enable the Contracting Officer to assess Contractor's progress. If the Contractor fails or refuses to furnish the information and project schedule data, which in the judgment of the Contracting Officer or authorized representative is necessary for verifying the Contractor's progress, the Contractor shall be deemed not to have provided an estimate upon which progress payment may be made.

Periodic Progress Meetings: Progress meetings to discuss payment shall include a monthly onsite meeting or other regular intervals mutually agreed to at the preconstruction conference. During this meeting the Contractor shall describe, on an activity by activity basis, all proposed revisions and adjustments to the project schedule required to reflect the current status of the project. The Contracting Officer will approve activity progress, proposed revisions, and adjustments as appropriate.
Meeting Attendance: The Contractor's Project Manager and Scheduler shall attend the regular progress meeting.
Update Submission Following Progress Meeting: A complete update of the project schedule containing all approved progress, revisions, and adjustments, based on the regular progress meeting, and shall be submitted not later than four (4) working days after the monthly progress meeting.

Progress Meeting Contents: Update information, including Actual Start Dates, Actual Finish Dates, Remaining Durations, and Cost-to-Date shall be subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer. As a minimum, the Contractor shall address the following items on an activity by activity basis during each progress meeting. The Contracting Officer's determination as to the number of allowable days of contract extension shall be based upon the project schedule updates in effect for the time period in question, and other factual information. Actual delays that are found to be caused by the Contractor's own actions, which result in the extension of the schedule, will not be a cause for a time extension to the contract completion date.

Submission Requirements
The Contractor shall submit a justification for each request for a change in the Contract completion date of less than two (2) weeks based upon the most recent schedule update at the time of the NTP or constructive direction issued for the change. Such a request shall include, as a minimum:
A list of affected activities, with their associated project schedule activity number.

A brief explanation of the causes of the change.

An analysis of the overall impact of the changes proposed.

A sub-network of the affected area.

Activities impacted in each justification for change shall be identified by a unique activity code contained in the required data file.
Additional Submission Requirements: For any requested time extension of over two (2) weeks, the Contracting Officer may request an interim update with revised activities for a specific change request. The Contractor shall provide this disk within four (4) days of the Contracting Officer's request.

OWNERSHIP OF FLOAT: Float available in the schedule, at any time, shall not be considered for the exclusive use of either the Government or the Contractor.

Preconstruction Safety Conference
Prior to construction, meet with the Contracting Officer to discuss and to review safety procedures.
Safety and Health Program
Integrate the site-specific program requirements of the OSHA Standards into one site- specific document, the Site Safety and Health Plan (SSHP) . The SSHP shall interface with the employer's overall Safety and Health Program. Any portions of the overall Safety and Health Program that are referenced in the SSHP shall be included as appendices to the SSHP.
Site Safety and Health Plan
Preparation and Implementation: Prepare a Site Safety and Health Plan (SSHP) covering onsite work to be performed by the Contractor and all subcontractors. The SSHP shall establish, in detail, the protocols necessary for the anticipation, recognition, evaluation, and control of hazards associated with each task performed. The SSHP shall address site- specific safety and health requirements and procedures based upon site-specific conditions. The level of detail provided in the SSHP shall be tailored to the type of work, complexity of operations to be performed, and hazards anticipated. Details about some activities may not be available when the initial SSHP is prepared and submitted. Therefore, the SSHP shall address, in as much detail as possible, anticipated tasks, their related hazards and anticipated control measures. Additional details shall be included in the activity hazard analyses as described in paragraph ACTIVITY HAZARD ANALYSES.
Acceptance and Modifications: Prior to submittal, the SSHP shall be signed and dated by Site Superintendent. The SSHP shall be submitted for review fourteen (14) days prior to the start of construction. Deficiencies in the SSHP shall be identified by the Contracting Officer and returned. The SSHP shall be revised to correct the deficiencies and resubmitted for acceptance. Onsite work shall not begin until the plan has been accepted. A copy of the written SSHP shall be maintained onsite. As work proceeds, the SSHP shall be adapted to new situations and new conditions. Changes and modifications to the accepted SSHP shall be made with the knowledge and concurrence of the Site Superintendent, and the Contracting Officer. Should any unforeseen hazard become evident during the performance of the work, the Site Superintendent shall bring such hazard to the attention of the Contracting Officer, both verbally and in writing, for resolution as soon as possible. In the interim, necessary action shall be taken to re- establish and maintain safe working conditions in order to safeguard onsite personnel, visitors, the public, and the environment. Disregard for the provisions of this specification or the accepted SSHP shall be cause for stopping of work until the matter has been rectified.
Availability: The SSHP shall be made available in accordance with 29 CFR 1910, Section .120 (b) (1) (v) and 29 CFR 1926, Section .65 (b) (1) (v).
Elements: Topics required by 29 CFR 1910, Section .120 (b) (4) 29 CFR 1926, Section

.65 (b) (4) and the Accident Prevention Plan as described in Appendix A of EM 385- 1-1 and those described in this section shall be addressed in the SSHP. Where the use of a specific topic is not applicable to the project, the SSHP shall include a statement to justify its omission or reduced level of detail and establish that adequate consideration was given the topic.
