3. COMMENCEMENT OF WORK. For each project required, the Contractor will receive a formal request for a detailed Contractor design and proposal package. All Government requests will include a project number, project title, conceptual scope of work, and will state any known special instructions or conditions that may exist. The Contractor shall attend a Pre-Design Site Visit to introduce and familiarize the Contractor with the projected work requested. Subsequently, the Contractor shall prepare and submit for review a corresponding Contractor Statement of Work (SOW) Package (see paragraph 3.2.1). The

Contractor will have full access to all Record and As-Built drawings located in the 7th Civil Engineer

Squadron, Contract Development, 710 3 rd

Street, DAFB (7 CES/CEPT) as required for development of the Contractor‟s proposal (GFM CD(s) of all available electronic files of as-built drawings will be provided to the contractor at award of contract). The Contractor shall be responsible for identifying tasks, refining quantities, preparing design calculations, pricing any Non Pre-priced Items (NPI) or tasks, preparing required design drawings, developing performance times, and submitting a formal proposal in the prescribed format. The Government will respond to any questions the Contractor may have regarding the work, and the Contractor shall submit the proposal to the CO. Following Government technical review of the proposal, the CO will conduct negotiations with the Contractor, 7 CES/CEPM representatives, and any other persons deemed necessary, for resolving any variations involving price, time, quantities, and any other relevant items. Following Government acceptance of the negotiated and/or revised proposals, the CO will prepare and issue a T.O. and a Notice To Proceed (NTP) directing the

Contractor to begin work within a specified period of time acceptable to the CO and 7 CES/CEPM representative based on mission requirements.

(MC), or Repair (R) and further delineate any items that are Additive Bid Items (reflected as “Option #”) and shall be accounted for and priced separately in the cost proposal.

However, some portions of a design may require up to a 65 to 95% design effort depending upon nature/complexity (i.e., mechanical/electrical). A 100% design level effort may be necessary when PE Certification is required.
