GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.01 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. The project consists of furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment in connection with the installation of fire sprinkler system at 30 SFS Building 13675 at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.

B. The work is briefly described as follows, but is not the entire scope of the project:

1. Installation of a new wet-pipe system throughout the building

1.02 OCCUPANCY:

The project site(s) will be occupied by base personnel during construction operations.

1.03 WORK SCHEDULE

Working hours will normally be between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If the Contractor desires to work during periods other than above, he shall make his request to the Contracting Officer 3 workdays in advance. If Government inspection forces are not required or such forces are reasonably available, the Contracting Officer may authorize the Contractor to perform work during periods other than normal duty hours/days; however, if Government inspectors are required to perform in excess of their normal duty hours/days solely for the benefit of the Contractor, the actual cost of inspection at overtime rates will be charged to the Contractor. These adjustments to the Contract price may be made periodically as directed by the Contracting Officer.

1.04 MANDATORY WORK STOPPAGES

A. A mandatory work stoppage occurs whenever the Contractor is restricted from working a full workday and is unable to reallocate work forces to other locations. All costs associated with five mandatory work stoppages must be included in the bid price. No additional compensation or extension to the Contract performance period will be given as a result of five mandatory work stoppages.

B. The Contractor may be required, without advance notice, to move

SECTION 01000 Page 2 work to a different location. The Contractor shall be prepared to increase or decrease his work forces with appropriate trades to perform work in the relocated work areas at no additional cost to the Government.

C. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer when a mandatory work stoppage occurs for recording purposes; otherwise, the work stoppage will not be credited to the Contractor.

1.05 SECURITY

A. The Contractor shall obtain all passes, badges, decals, or other identification media required for security clearance to areas where work is performed. Obtain vehicle and individual identification media at the Pass and Registration Section, 30 SW/SFAM, Building 11777, 6-1853. Identification media shall be surrendered to the Pass and Registration Section upon termination of the Contract, or termination of an individual's employment with the Contractor.

B. The work to be performed is in a military restricted or controlled area. The Contractor must comply with the entry control policies for the area. The Contractor and its employees are required to have at least a National Agency Check. In the event the Contractor cannot comply with the investigative or clearance requirement, it is the responsibility of the Contractor to obtain escort officials who are authorized unescorted entry to the work area. It is also the Contractor's responsibility to coordinate with the appropriate security officials at each construction site at least 5 workdays prior to start of Contract performance. For information on security services, contact Personnel Security Section, 30 SFS/SFAI, 5-0766. The Contractor shall provide enough escort officials for uninterrupted visual surveillance within 50 feet of all individuals not having required security clearance performing work as part of the Contract.
