About this file

This is a technical specifications document for fire alarm system upgrades at three elementary schools operated by Greenville Public Schools in Greenville, Michigan. The project encompasses Baldwin Heights Elementary, Cedar Crest Elementary, and Walnut Hills Elementary and includes the installation of addressable fire-alarm systems with associated electrical infrastructure. The specifications were issued for construction documents on July 30, 2026, under project numbers 3197-04A, 3197-04B, and 3197-04D. The work is managed by Kingscott Associates, Inc. as the architect/engineer, with Fritz Wahlfield Construction serving as the construction manager. The specifications detail requirements for selective demolition, low-voltage electrical power conductors and cables, conduit systems, grounding and bonding, hangers and supports, boxes and covers, surface raceways, sleeves and seals, identification systems, and addressable fire-alarm system installation. Three alternates are specified, each allowing the addition of smoke detection in spaces outside early childhood areas at Baldwin Heights, Cedar Crest, and Walnut Hills schools respectively.

The document establishes comprehensive procedural requirements for substitutions, architect submittals, and construction documentation. Substitutions for cause must be submitted at least 15 days prior to bid receipt, with the architect providing decisions within 14 days of receipt. All submittals must be in electronic form, with initial review periods of 15 days for shop drawings and product data, and 21 days for sequential reviews involving multiple parties. Contractors must demonstrate compliance with contract documents through material compliance certificates and provide detailed product data including manufacturer specifications, installation instructions, and wiring diagrams. The specifications require coordination with existing utilities, maintenance of fire-protection facilities during demolition, and compliance with NFPA 70, NFPA 72, and NFPA 241 standards. Electrical installation must follow NECA NEIS 1 guidelines, and the contractor is responsible for providing operation and maintenance manuals, software documentation, and training materials upon project completion.

SECTION 013300

ARCHITECT’S SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES

GENERAL

1.1 SUMMARY

A. This Section includes administrative and procedural requirements for submitting RFI’s, Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, and other submittals.

1.2 DEFINITIONS

A. Action Submittals: Written and graphic information that requires Architect's responsive action.

B. Informational Submittals: Written information that does not require Architect's responsive action.

Submittals may be rejected for not complying with requirements.

1.3 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES

A. General: Electronic copies of CAD Drawings of the Contract Documents will be provided by Architect for Contractor’s use in preparing submittals. See 1.4 below.

B. All submittals must be in electronic form. Paper copies are not acceptable unless specifically listed. The architect will review, stamp and return an electronic document for the contractor’s use. Copies of the reviewed shop drawings shall be provided by the contractor for distribution as required by the

Construction Manager.

C. Each submittal item shall be submitted in its entirety as one complete package including all information required to fully review the item. Material sample, data, warranty and maintenance information, and drawings shall come as one package. Submittals missing required components and / or without product selections identified will be rejected without review.

D. Compliance Certificate: Refer to the attached Compliance Certificate. Compliance Certificates are to be used by contractors to indicate the products/devices intended for use in this project without the need and time for product data submittals. Contractors shall use Compliance Certificates whenever possible to expedite the work and limit paper work. Items listed on the form must be approved products listed in the specifications. No substitutions allowed. Select one (1) source for each category, sign this sheet, and submit as the contractor’s commitment to use products required by the contract documents. No further product data submittals are required for this section. Physical sample, color samples, or layout shop drawings must be submitted where required by the specification. Refer to the attached specification list for sections that are subject to this certificate. NOTE: Not all specification sections listed below will apply to the project listed above. There might not be specification sections included that are in the

3197-04A/04B/04D ARCHITECT’S SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES 013300-2

project listed above, in that case coordinate with architect at post bid interview for submittal requirements.

E. Coordination: Coordinate preparation and processing of submittals with performance of construction activities.

1. Coordinate each submittal with fabrication, purchasing, testing, delivery, other submittals, and related activities that require sequential activity.

Coordinate transmittal of different types of submittals for related parts of the Work so processing will not be delayed because of need to review submittals concurrently for coordination.

a. Architect reserves the right to withhold action on a submittal requiring coordination with other submittals until related submittals are received.

F. Submittals Schedule: Comply with requirements in Division 1 Section "Construction Progress

Documentation" for list of submittals and time requirements for scheduled performance of related construction activities.

G. Processing Time: Allow enough time for submittal review, including time for resubmittals, as follows.

Time for review shall commence on Architect's receipt of submittal. No extension of the Contract Time will be authorized because of failure to transmit submittals enough in advance of the Work to permit processing, including resubmittals.

1. RFI’s, request for information: Allow 5 working days for initial response for each RFI. Allow additional time if coordination with subsequent RFI is required, or when additional information is need for the response.

2. Shop drawings, sample, and product data:

a. Initial Review: Allow 15 days for initial review of each submittal. Allow additional time if coordination with subsequent submittals is required. Architect will advise Contractor when a submittal being processed must be delayed for coordination.

b. Intermediate Review: If intermediate submittal is necessary, process it in same manner as initial submittal.

c. Resubmittal Review: Allow 15 days for review of each resubmittal.

d. Sequential Review: where sequential review of submittals by Architect’s consultants, Owner, or other parties is indicated, allow 21 days for initial review of each submittal.

e. Submissions that are large or of multiple submissions or requires detailed or lengthy review by the Architect or his consultant may require additional time.

f. Submissions for products or material that require a long lead time for delivery shall be noted as such and marked “Top Priority” so the architect may expedite the process. The architect will expedite reviews when the contractor legitimately can’t submit within a reasonable time due to construction schedule. Failure to submit in a timely manner or to allow sufficient time for initial review and resubmittal reviews may result in project delays, additional service charges by the architect, or other penalties for the contractor.

3197-04A/04B/04D ARCHITECT’S SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES 013300-3

K. Transmittal: Package each submittal individually and appropriately for transmittal and handling.

Transmit each submittal using a transmittal form including electronic submittals. Architect will discard submittals received from sources other than the Construction Manager. Architect will return any submittal with a transmittal, which doesn’t fully list, and properly identify the enclosed items.
