1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

1.2.1 Project Description

Contract consists of the Contractor furnishing all labor, supervision, quality control, materials, equipment, machines, tools, appliances, services, transportation, supplies, and incidentals. Work shall be performed in strict accordance with the plans, specifications, terms and conditions of the contract. Existing dimensions and locations shown on applicable drawings provided by the Government are for approximation purposes only. Failure to verify the dimensions and locations will be at the contractor's risk and shall not relieve the contractor from accomplishing the work required by the contract at the price awarded by the government and incidental related work.

1.2.2 Location

The work is located at March Air Reserve Base, approximately as indicated.

The exact location will be shown by the Contracting Officer.

1.3 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULES

1.3.1 The Contractor shall submit one electronic copy of AF Form 3064, Contract Progress Schedule for approval within five (5) days after Notice to Proceed (NTP) in accordance with FAR 52.236-15. Update and submit one electronic copy of AF Form 3064, Contract progress Schedule at monthly intervals or when the schedule has been revised. The updated schedule shall be kept current, reflecting actual activity progress and plan for completing the remaining work. Submit copies of purchase orders and confirmation of delivery dates as directed by the Contracting Officer. If the Contractor fails to submit a schedule within the time prescribed, the

Attachment 3 to

Contracting Officer may withhold approval of progress payments until the Contractor submits the required schedule.

1.3.2 The contractor shall submit one electronic copy AF Form 3065, Contract Progress Reporting in accordance with FAR 52.236-15, Schedules for Construction Contracts. The Contractor shall attach one electronic copy of AF Form 3065, Contract Progress Report to each payment request.

1.3.3 If, in the opinion of the Contracting Officer, the Contractor falls behind the approved schedule, the Contractor shall take steps necessary to improve its progress, including those that may be required by the Contracting Officer, without additional cost to the Government. In this circumstance, the Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to increase the number of shifts, overtime operations, days of work, and/or the amount of construction plant, and to submit for approval any supplementary schedules as the Contracting Officer deems necessary to demonstrate how the approved rate of progress will be regained.

1.3.4 The Contractor shall schedule work concurrently on all active contracts, without extending performance periods due to insufficient resources. The Contractor will not move crews around constantly while making minimal progress on numerous projects. This is perceived as having an inadequate work force to fulfill the requirements of the contract.

1.3.5 When specifically requested by the Government prior to completion of negotiations for a contract, the work shall, so far as practicable, be done in phases, definite sections or confined to limited areas which shall be completed before work in other areas is begun. These areas shall be clearly annotated on the Contractor's construction drawings. The work areas may be occupied or unoccupied.

1.3.6 Delivery of materials and equipment shall be made with a minimum of interference to Government operations and personnel.

1.3.7 Failure of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of the Contracting Officer under this clause shall be grounds for a determination by the Contracting Officer that the Contractor is not prosecuting the work with sufficient diligence to ensure completion within the time specified in the contract. Upon making this determination, the Contracting Officer may terminate the Contractor's right to proceed with the work, or any separable part of it, in accordance with the default terms of this contract

1.4 WORK PLAN

The Contractor shall submit a Work Plan in writing with appropriate drawings for approval by the Contracting Officer within fourteen (14) calendar days after the Notice to Proceed has been issued. The Work Plan shall include as a minimum:

01 50 00 TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION FACILITIES AND CONTROLS.

1.5 AF FORM 103 WORK CLEARANCE REQUEST

Contractor must initiate and process for approval a Work Clearance Request AF Form 103 through 452 BCE immediately upon Contract award. The work clearance request is used for any work that may disrupt aircraft or vehicular traffic flow, base utility services, protection provided by fire and intrusion alarm system, or routine activities of the installation. This form is used to coordinate the required work with key base activities and keep customer inconvenience to a minimum. It is also used to identify potentially hazardous work conditions in an attempt to prevent accidents.

The Government does not know the exact location of all utilities in the work area. Contractor is responsible for marking and verifying all utilities not marked. The Contractor shall take reasonable precautions in determining the exact location of all existing utilities within the contract work area prior to any excavating, trenching, backfilling, or disturbance. Upon request by the Contractor, the Government shall furnish all available information in its possession concerning utilities in the contract work area. However, the accuracy of the information provided by the Government is not guaranteed and is only intended to provide some measure of assistance to the Contractor. Work is not authorized without issuance of a completed and approved AF Form 103.

1.6 PROPERTY CONTROL RECORDS

Contractor shall maintain property control records for material or equipment designated as salvage. Contractor's system of property control may be used if approved by the Contracting Officer. Contractor shall be responsible for storage and protection of salvaged materials and equipment until disposition by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall obtain a receipt from the Government employee responsible for receiving the returned material or equipment as evidence of compliance. A copy of the receipt(s) shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer prior to final inspection of the project. All equipment and materials to be removed from the project site not specifically identified for salvage to the Government shall become the property of the Contractor upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and shall be removed from Government property and disposed of in accordance with all applicable federal, state, regional and local regulatory requirements at the expense of the Contractor. Items designated by the Contracting Officer to be Government salvage shall remain the property of the Government. The Contractor shall segregate, itemize, deliver and off-load Government salvage materials and equipment at the site designated by the Contracting Officer.
