1.5. Coefficient Information

The following Divisions Numbers and SABER Technical Sections as contained in RS Means shall not be used as line items in pricing delivery orders issued under this contract. These costs shall be covered in the coefficients:

a) Division 01 11 to 01 93 - This Division (General Requirements) is excluded in its entirety except equipment rental, fencing & scaffolding, these items may be considered only if the required item is not included in the descriptions for the MEANS assemblies or line item that describe the work. Section 01010 Summary of Work, Section 01040 Coordination, Section 01300 Deliv~ryQrcl~r Proposals, Section 01440 CQC, Section 01500 Construction Facilities & Temporary Controls, Section 01600 Material & Equipment and Section 01700 Delivery Order Closeout.

b) Coefficients shall contain all allowable contractor costs, including contingencies and profit. Examples of such costs are; gross receipts taxes and payroll taxes, such as FICA, workmen's compensation, state and federal unemployment taxes for direct payroll employees, superintendents' salaries, builders' risk insurance, initial contract startup, mobilization and demobilization expenses and bond premiums; and various overhead expenses, including project estimating, daily clean-up, site office overhead, field office building, furniture, equipment, on-site office staff salaries, vehicle and construction equipment maintenance, office administrative expenses and a proportional share of home office overhead. The coefficient should also include all insurance, special clothing for workers, traffic barricades, additional supervision, as well as, paperwork fees associated with a particular delivery order, consultant fees, all on and off site storage, etc. The coefficient shall also reflect the contractor's perception of the accuracy of the Means Cost Data.

1.6. RS Means updates their database annually. This update shall provide the only economic price adjustment under this contract.

1.7. The specification provided consists of the following:.

a) Technical specifications - paragraph 1.8.1

b) Construction requirements - paragraph 1.10

1.8. Technical Specifications.

1.8.1. Specifications are based on the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) published by Construction Criteria Base. UFGS are published only in electronic format and are intended to be used with Specs Intact software. These specifications are organized in the Construction Specification Institute (CSI) Division Master Format (the most current version) and shall be used for this contract.

1.8.2. The intent of these specifications is to furnish concise commercial, industrial, and residential standards for maintenance, repair, and new and minor construction of government facilities. Any work not addressed in the SABER Technical Specifications shall require

TRAVIS AFB _SABER e ~ntract FA4427-1 O-R-O102 submittal and approval of applicable specifications, manufacturer's literature, etc. as part of the delivery order.

1.9. Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) published by Construction Criteria Base.

Each specification section may apply to numerous individual line items. Some specifications are broad scoped in nature and contain a variety of items. Other specifications may not have Pre- Priced Data base pricing information. Those items may be special ordered from the manufacturer or the items involved may be proprietary to each manufacturer's own equipment.

It is not possible to create a comprehensive specification capable of addressing every possible condition that may be encountered. Consequently the specifications are intended to indicate the quality of materials and workmanship expected by the Government. If a specific line item description is not included in the Guide Specifications, the Contractor shall provide a complete description of the item, including standards and salient features, of the selection of or approval for use of that line item. Most of the unedited specification sections contain several fill-in-the-blank passages for which there are given options. For each project, the Contractor shall tailor each applicable specification section by identifying in a project SOW the proposed selection for each of these passages, as applicable to the given project. For instance, a SOW that included work to construct a concrete slab would need to state the grade of reinforcing steel or type of cement. If left unstated, the more stringent or highest quality selection governs. If there is a dispute between standards, follow the TRAVIS AFB Design Standard/Codes/References. The following guide specifications are applicable to each delivery order issued.

These products are available online only at www.ccb.org. The contractor shall use these data sets to develop the requirements/specifications for awarded projects. UFGS by Division as of May 2009 are as follows:

02 Existing Conditions 03 Concrete 04 Masonry 05 Metals 06 Wood, Plastics and Composites 07 Thermal and Moisture Protection 08 Openings 09 Finishes 10 Specialties 11 Equipment 12 Furnishings 13 Special Construction 14 Conveying Equipment 21 Fire Suppression 22 Plumbing 23 Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning 25 Integrated Automation 26 Electrical 27 Communications 28 Electronic Safety and Security http://www.ccb.org.

News Record (ENR) is applied to determine increases or decreases in labor, equipment, and material.
