The Contractor shall notify the contracting officer, in advance, of the intent of bringing a non-Navy owned crane onto a Navy shore installation. All entries shall be through a prearranged entry point IAW references C.1.1(a), C.1.1(ad), C.1.1(ae), C.1.1(af), and C.1.1(ag).

The Contractor shall comply with the applicable American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) standards (e.g., B30.5 for mobile cranes, B30.22 for articulating boom cranes, B30.3 for construction tower cranes, and B30.8 for floating cranes). For barge mounted mobile cranes, a load indicating device, a wind indicating device, and a marine type list indicator readable in one-half degree increments are required. In addition, the Contractor shall comply with specific naval crane safety and operation regulations/standards specifically required by the Navy shore installation and state or local Government.

The Contractor shall certify that the crane and rigging gear meets applicable Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations by providing a Certificate of Compliance. The Certificate of Compliance can be downloaded from the NAVFAC Naval Crane Center website, https://www.navfac.navy.mil/navfac_worldwide/specialty_centers/ncc/about_us/resources/p307/p307_forms.html. The Contractor must cite which OSHA regulations are applicable, e.g., cranes used in cargo transfer shall comply with 29 CFR 1917; cranes used in construction, demolition, or maintenance shall comply with 29 CFR 1926; cranes used in shipbuilding, ship repair, or ship breaking shall comply with 29 CFR 1915.

The Contractor shall also certify that all of its crane operators working in the naval activity have been trained not to bypass safety devices (e.g., anti-two block devices) during lifting operations. The Certification of Compliance form shall be posted on the crane. For mobile cranes with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) rated capacities of 50,000 pounds or greater, the crane operators shall be designated as qualified by a source that qualifies crane operators (i.e., union, a Government agency, or an organization that tests and qualifies crane operators). Proof of current qualification shall be provided. The Contractor shall certify that the crane operator is qualified and trained for the operation of the crane to be used.

The Contractor shall provide a critical lift plan to NAVFAC for concurrence prior to the lift IAW references C.1.1(a), C.1.1(b), C.1.1(ad), C.1.1(ae), C.1.1(af), and C.1.1(ag). For each of the following lifts: lifts over 75 percent of the capacity of the crane or hoist (lifts over 50 percent of the capacity of a barge mounted mobile crane’s hoists) at any radius of lift; lifts involving more than one crane or hoist; lifts of personnel; and lifts involving non-routine rigging or operation, sensitive equipment, or unusual safety risks. The plan shall include the following as applicable:

a. The size and weight of the load to be lifted, including crane and rigging components that add to the weight. The OEM's maximum load capacities for the entire range of the lift shall also be provided.

b. The lift geometry, including the crane position, boom length and angle, height of lift, and radius for the entire range of the lift. This applies to both single and tandem crane lifts.

c. A rigging plan, showing the lift points, rigging gear, and rigging procedures.

d. The environmental conditions under which lift operations are to be stopped.

e. For lifts of personnel, the plan shall demonstrate compliance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.550(g).

f. For barge mounted mobile cranes, barge stability calculations identifying barge list and trim based on anticipated loading; and load charts based on calculated lists and trim. The amount of list and trim shall be within the crane manufacturer’s requirements.

The Contractor shall notify the contracting officer as soon as practicable, but no later than four hours after any weight handling equipment (WHE) accident. The Contractor shall investigate and report all accidents IAW reference C.1.1.(de), Section 12.

C.20 ORDERING ADDITIONAL WORK:

C.20.1 The following procedure will be used to order additional work which is necessary to satisfactorily complete any tank, void or bilge cleaning service under the contract. Such work may be called for by the issuance of a delivery order/delivery order modification, by the Ordering Officer, during the term of the contract.

C.20.2 During the course of work under other fixed price contract line items, the contractor shall promptly recommend to the Ordering Officer, in writing, additional work as he discovers the need for such work. Concurrently, the contractor shall quote a price and delivery time for the additional work. The Ordering Officer shall promptly review the recommendation and may, after reaching agreement with the contractor, issue a delivery order/delivery order modification. The Government has no obligation under this paragraph to issue any delivery order/delivery order modification.

C.20.3 The contractor shall not proceed with the additional work until a delivery order/delivery order modification has been issued. Whenever the Ordering Office determines that it is in the interest of the Government not to delay performance of the work while a price is being negotiated, the Ordering Officer may specify in the delivery order/delivery order modification that the contractor shall proceed with additional work. In every case, prior to completion of the work called for therein, the parties shall negotiate a price and delivery schedule as expeditiously as possible and modify the delivery order accordingly.

C.20.4 Government requirements for additional work shall be issued as delivery order/delivery order modifications under this contract by the Ordering Officer. The Ordering Officer will negotiate a firm fixed amount of man-hours and material dollars with the contractor. The price of the delivery order for additional work will be based on negotiated man hours multiplied by the hourly rate bid for additional work in Section B, plus negotiated material dollars.

a. In negotiating the fixed price for materials, the contractor shall submit quotes or invoices for the material required. The negotiated price for materials on undisclosed work shall be the quote or invoice price submitted by the contractor for actual materials plus transportation charges, both subject to verification by the Government as to reasonableness. The Government will not pay any material handling charges under material items. Any material handling charges incurred by the contractor should be included as a factor in the hourly rate for additional work.

b. In negotiation a fixed number of man hours for additional work, the contractor’s proposal shall include quality assurance, engineering and supervision hours, in additions to trade hours required to accomplish the work as long as the hours proposed are not covered by an indirect cost pool under the contractor’s accounting system. All hours treated as indirect hours under the contractor’s accounting system must be accounted for as a factor included in the hourly rate. The Government will not agree to pay for separate indirect hours in the man hour negotiations.

C.21 EXTENSION OF COMMERCIAL WARRANTY

Contractors shall extend to the Government the full coverage of any standard commercial warranty normally offered in a similar commercial sale, provided that such warranty is available at no additional cost to the Government. Contractors shall provide a copy of the standard commercial warranty with the item. The standard commercial warranty period shall begin upon the final acceptance of the applicable material or software. Acceptance of the standard commercial warranty does not waive the Government’s rights under the “Inspection” clause, nor does it limit the Government’s rights with regard to other terms and conditions of the contract. In the event of a conflict, the terms and conditions of the contract shall take precedence over the standard commercial warranty.

(a) “Acceptance,” as used in this clause, means the act of an authorized representative of the Government by which the Government assumes for itself, or as an agent of another, ownership of existing and identified supplies, or approves specific services, as partial or complete performance of the contract.

(b) Notwithstanding inspection and acceptance by the Government or any provision concerning the conclusiveness thereof, the Contractor warrants that all services performed under this contract will, at the time of acceptance, be free from defects in workmanship and conform to the requirements of this contract. The Contracting Officer shall give written notice of any defect or nonconformance to the Contractor within 90 days from the acceptance by the Government. This notice shall state either (1) that the Contractor shall correct or re-perform any defective or nonconforming services, or (2) that the Government does not require correction or re-performance.

(c) If the Contractor is required to correct or re-perform, it shall be at no cost to the Government, and any services corrected or re-performed by the Contractor shall be subject to this clause to the same extent as work initially performed. If the Contractor fails or refuses to correct or re-perform, the Contracting Officer may, by contract or otherwise, correct or replace with similar services and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned to the Government thereby, or make an equitable adjustment in the contract price.

(d) If the Government does not require correction or performance, the Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment in the contract price.

C.22 ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS:

The Contractor shall be required to only use products for cleaning tanks, voids and bilges authorized on the Qualified Products Database (QPD) in compliance with references C.1.1.(a) through C.1.1(ac).
