The Contractor is responsible for executing the work within the time stated in the contract.

1.3 SUBMITTALS

Submit final progress schedule no later than 5 calendar days after receiving the Notice To Proceed (NTP). A draft schedule is to be submitted before the pre-construction conference with time periods shown but without dates of NTP and completion shown.

Progress schedule shall have project name, location, contract number, and company name. The final progress schedule, with the NTP and completion dates filled in, shall be signed.

At the left side of the form, list in columns.

a. Activity Number and Description - At a minimum, break down the project into 10 activities. If enough detail is given on the progress schedule, then the activity breakdown may be done at the Contracting Officer's discretion. Activities can be of various origins (i.e., by specification section, by logical sequence of work, by breakdown used for bid estimates, etc.)
