About this file
This document is a market survey notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding a potential water supply control system replacement project at Camp Zama, Japan. The project scope involves replacing the existing central and local control systems across four buildings with a new central controller and associated equipment. The estimated value is between 500 million and 1 billion Japanese yen, and the anticipated period of performance is 16 months. Interested local firms are requested to provide information on their capabilities and experience, current bonding levels, and responses to questions about the project scope by April 15, 2020. The Corps intends to use a firm fixed-price design-bid-build contract awarded through a public invitation for bid.

The SDEF format is as follows:
W912HV-17-D-0008 SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 4 RTA
Field Activity Code Length Description
1 WRKP 3 Workers per day
2 RESP 4 Responsible party
3 AREA 4 Area of work
4 MODF 6 Modification Number
5 BIDI 6 Bid Item (CLIN)
6 PHAS 2 Phase of work
7 CATW 1 Category of work
8 FOW 20 Feature of work*
*Some systems require that FEATURE OF WORK values be placed in several activity code fields. The not ation shown is for Primavera P6. Refer to the specific software guidelines with respect to the FEATURE OF WORK field requirements.
3.3.6.1 Workers Per Day (WRKP)
Assign Workers per Day for all field construction or direct work activities, if directed by the Contracting Officer. Workers per day is based on the average number of workers expected each day to perform a task for the duration of that activity.
3.3.6.2 Responsible Party Coding (RESP)
Assign responsibility code for all activities to the Prime Contractor, Subcontractor(s) or Government agency(ies) responsible for performing the activity.
a. Activities coded with a Government Responsibility code include, but are not limited to: Government approvals, Government design reviews, environmental permit approvals by State regulators, Government Furnished Property/Equipment (GFP) and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.
b. Activities cannot have more than one Responsibility Code. Examples of acceptable activity code values are: DOR (for the designer of record);
ELEC (for the electrical subcontractor); MECH (for the mechanical subcontractor); and GOVT (for USACE).
3.3.6.3 Area of Work Coding (AREA)
Assign Work Area code to activities based upon the work area in which the activity occurs. Define work areas based on resource constraints or space constraints that would preclude a resource, such as a particular trade or craft work crew from working in more than one work area at a time due to restraints on resources or space. Examples of Work Area Coding include different areas within a floor of a building, different floors within a
W912HV-17-D-0008 SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 5 RTA building, and different buildings within a complex of buildings.
Activities cannot have more than one Work Area Code.
Not all activities are required to be Work Area coded. A lack of Work Area coding indicates the activity is not resource or space constrained.
3.3.6.4 Modification Number (MODF)
Assign a Modification Number Code to any activity or sequence of activities added to the schedule as a result of a Contract Modification, when approved by Contracting Officer. Key all Code values to the Government's modification numbering system. An activity can have only one Modification Number Code.
3.3.6.5 Bid Item Coding (BIDI)
Assign a Bid Item Code to all activities using the Contract Line Item Schedule (CLIN) to which the activity belongs, even when an activity is not cost loaded. An activity can have only one BIDI Code.
3.3.6.6 Phase of Work Coding (PHAS)
Assign Phase of Work Code to all activities. Examples of phase of work are procurement phase and construction phase. Each activity can have only one Phase of Work code.
a. Code proposed fast track design and construction phases proposed to allow filtering and organizing the schedule by fast track design and construction packages.
b. If the contract specifies phasing with separately defined performance periods, identify a Phase Code to allow filtering and organizing the schedule accordingly.
3.3.6.7 Category of Work Coding (CATW)
Assign a Category of Work Code to all activities. Category of Work Codes include, but are not limited to construction submittal, procurement, fabrication, weather sensitive installation, non-weather sensitive installation, start-up, and testing activities. Each activity can have no more than one Category of Work Code.
3.3.6.8 Feature of Work Coding (FOW)
Assign a Feature of Work Code to appropriate activities based on the Definable Feature of Work to which the activity belongs based on the approved QC plan.
Definable Feature of Work is defined in Section 01 45 00.00 10 QUALITY CONTROL. An activity can have only one Feature of Work Code.
3.3.7 Contract Milestones and Constraints
Milestone activities are to be used for significant project events including, but not limited to, project phasing, project start and end activities, or interim completion dates. The use of artificial float constraints such as "zero free float" or "zero total float" are prohibited.
Mandatory constraints that ignore or effect network logic are prohibited.
W912HV-17-D-0008 SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 6 RTA
No constrained dates are allowed in the schedule other than those specified herein. Submit additional constraints to the Contracting Officer for approval on a case by case basis.
3.3.7.1 Project Start Date Milestone and Constraint
The first activity in the project schedule must be a start milestone titled "NTP Acknowledged," which must have a "Start On" constraint date equal to the date that the NTP is acknowledged.
3.3.7.2 End Project Finish Milestone and Constraint
The last activity in the schedule must be a finish milestone titled "End Project."
Constrain the project schedule to the Contract Completion Date in such a way that if the schedule calculates an early finish, then the float calculation for "End Project" milestone reflects positive…
