PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 SUBMITTALS
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;
submittals having an "I" designation are for information only.
Designation following the "G" or "I" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Submit in accordance with SECTION 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:
SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals
Construction Schedule; G, C
SD-07 Certificates
Monthly Updates; G, C
1.2 ACCEPTANCE
Prior to the start of work, prepare and submit to the Contracting Officer for acceptance a construction schedule in the form of a Network Analysis Schedule (NAS) in accordance with the terms in Contract Clause "FAR 52.236-15, Schedules for Construction Contracts," except as modified in this contract.
The acceptance of a Baseline Construction Schedule is a condition precedent to:
a. The Contractor starting work on the demolition or construction stage(s) of the contract.
b. Processing Contractor's invoice(s) for construction activities/items of work.
c. Review of any schedule updates.
Submittal of the Baseline Schedule, and subsequent schedule updates, is understood to be the Contractor's certification that the submitted schedule meets all of the requirements of the Contract Documents, represents the Contractor's plan on how the work will be accomplished, and accurately reflects the work that has been accomplished and how it was sequenced (as-built logic).
1.3 SCHEDULE FORMAT
1.3.1 Network Analysis Schedule (NAS)
Use the critical path method (CPM) to schedule and control project activities. Prepare and maintain project schedules using Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project 2016. Importing data into the scheduling program using data conversion techniques or third party software is cause for rejection
SECTION 01 32 16.00 28 Page 3 of the submitted schedule. Build the schedule as follows:
a. The Project Schedule will show pre-construction submittals, Government review periods, material/equipment delivery, utility outages, all on-site construction, inspection, testing, and closeout activities.
Government and Contractor on-site work activities will be driven by calendars that reflect Saturdays, Sundays and all Federal Holidays as non-work days.
b. With the exception of the Contract Award and End Contract milestone activities, no activities shall be open-ended. Each activity shall have predecessor and successor ties. No activity is to have open start, or open finish (dangling) logic. Minimize redundant logic ties. Once an activity exists on the schedule it is not to be deleted, or renamed to change the scope of the activity, and must not be removed from the schedule logic without approval from the Contracting Officer. While an activity cannot be deleted, where said activity is no longer applicable to the schedule but must remain within the logic stream for historical record, it can be changed to a milestone. Document any such change in the milestone's "Notebook", including a date and explanation for the change. The ID number for a deleted activity must not be re-used for another activity.
c. Each activity is to be assigned an appropriate Responsibility Code indicating responsibility to accomplish the work indicated by the activity, Phase Code and Work Location Code.
d. Date/time constraint(s) and/or lags, other than those required by the contract, are not allowed unless accepted by the Contracting Officer.
Include as the last activity in the contract schedule, a milestone activity named "Contract Completion Date".
1.3.1.1 Primavera P6 Settings and Parameters
Use the following Primavera P6 settings and parameters in preparing the Baseline Schedule. Deviation from these settings and parameters, without prior consent of the Contracting Officer, is cause for rejection of schedule submission.

g. No on-site construction activity may have durations in excess of 10 working days.
1.3.1.2 Microsoft Project 2016 Settings and Parameters
The Network must have a minimum of 30 construction activities. No on-site construction activity may have durations in excess of 10 working days.
1.3.1.3 Cost Loading Microsoft Project 2016 Schedules
Assign material, labor and equipment costs to their respective Construction Activities. Material and equipment costs for which payment will be requested in advance of installation must be assigned to their respective procurement activity (i.e. the material/equipment on-site activity). Evenly disperse overhead and profit to each activity over the duration of the project. Cost loading must total to 100 percent of the value of the contract.
a. Submit an Earned Value Report with each schedule update showing activity budget, cost percent complete, earned amount and cost to complete as directed by the Contracting Officer.
b. With each schedule submission, provide a Schedule Variance control (SVC) diagram showing:

(2) Earned Value to-date. Revise Cash Flow S-Curves when the contract is modified, or as directed by the Contracting Officer.
SECTION 01 32 16.00 28 Page 5
1.3.2 Schedule Submittals and Procedures
Submit Network Analysis Schedules (NAS) and updates in hard copy and on electronic media that is acceptable to the Contracting Officer. Submit an electronic back-up of the project schedule in an import format compatible with the Government's scheduling program.
1.4 SCHEDULE MONTHLY UPDATES
Update the Construction Schedule at monthly intervals or when the schedule has been revised. The updated schedule must 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.
a. Narrative Report: Provide with schedule updates. Identify and justify;
(1) Progress made in each area of the project
(2) Critical Path
(3) Date/time constraint(s), other than those required by the contract
(4) Changes in the following; added or deleted activities, original and remaining durations for activities that have not started, logic, milestones, planned sequence of operations, and critical path
(5) Status of Contract Completion Date and interim milestones;
(6) Current and anticipated delays (describe cause of delay and corrective actions(s) and mitigation measures to minimize);
(7) Description of current and future schedule problem areas.
Each entry in the narrative report must cite the respective Activity ID and Activity Description, the date and reason for the change, and description of the change.
1.5 CONTRACT MODIFICATION
Submit a Time Impact Analysis (TIA) with each cost and time proposal for a proposed change. TIA must illustrate the influence of each change or delay on the Contract Completion Date or milestones. No time extensions will be granted nor delay damages paid unless a delay occurs which consumes all available Project Float, and extends the Projected Finish beyond the Contract Completion Date.
a. Each TIA must be in both narrative and schedule form. The narrative must define the scope and conditions of the change; provide start and finish dates of impact, successor and predecessor activity to impact period, responsible party, describe how it originated, and how it impacts the schedule. The schedule submission must consist of three native files:
(1) Fragnet used to define the scope of the changed condition
(2) Most recent accepted schedule update as of the time of the proposal or claim submission that has been updated to show all
SECTION 01 32 16.00 28 Page 6 activity progress as of the time of the impact start date.
(3) The impacted schedule that has the fragnet inserted in the updated schedule and the schedule "run" so that the new completion date is determined.
b. For claimed as-built project delay, the inserted fragnet TIA method must be modified to account for as-built events known to occur after the data date of schedule update used.
c. All TIAs must include any mitigation, and must determine the apportionment of the overall delay assignable to each individual delay. The associated narrative must clearly describe the findings in a chronological listing beginning with the earliest delay event.
(1) Identify types of delays as follows:
(a) Excusable Delay: Force-Majeure (e.g. weather) - Contractor may receive time extension, but time will not be compensable.
(b) Inexcusable Delay: Contractor Responsibility - Contractor will not receive time extension.
(c) Compensable Delay: Government Responsibility - Contractor may receive compensable time extension.
(2) If a combination of any of the delay types outlined above occurs, it is considered a Concurrent Delay, which will require an analysis of the facts to determine compensability and entitlement to any time extension under the applicable contract clauses.
d. Submit Data disks containing the narrative and native schedule files.
e. Unless the Contracting Officer requests otherwise, only add conformed contract modifications into the Project NAS.
1.6 3-WEEK LOOK AHEAD SCHEDULE
Prepare and issue a 3-Week Look Ahead schedule to provide a more detailed day-to-day plan of upcoming work identified on the Construction Schedule.
Key the work plans to activity numbers when a NAS is required and update each week to show the planned work for the current and following two-week period. Additionally, include upcoming outages, closures, preparatory meetings, and initial meetings. Identify critical path activities on the Three-Week Look Ahead Schedule. The detail work plans are to be bar chart type schedules, maintained separately from the Construction Schedule on an electronic spreadsheet program and printed on 8-1/2 by 11 inch sheets as directed by the Contracting Officer. Activities must not exceed 5 working days in duration and have sufficient level of detail to assign crews, tools and equipment required to complete the work. Deliver three hard copies and one electronic file of the 3-Week Look Ahead Schedule to the Contracting Officer no later than 8 a.m. each Monday, and review during the weekly CQC Coordination or Production Meeting.
1.7 CORRESPONDENCE AND TEST REPORTS:
All correspondence (e.g., letters, Requests for Information (RFIs), e-mails, meeting minute items, Production and QC Daily Reports, material delivery tickets, photographs) must reference Schedule Activities that are
SECTION 01 32 16.00 28 Page 7 being addressed. All test reports (e.g., concrete, soil compaction, weld, pressure) must reference Schedule Activities that are being addressed.
1.8 ADDITIONAL SCHEDULING REQUIREMENTS
Any references to additional scheduling requirements, including systems to be inspected, tested and commissioned, that are located throughout the remainder of the Contract Documents, are subject to all requirements of this section.
1.9 HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY SCHEDULE
1.9.1 Pre-Dredge Hydrographic Survey
The Government will perform a pre-dredge hydrographic survey no earlier than 14 days prior to the start of dredging operations using an independent surveyor. The Contractor shall be responsible for any additional survey expenses and adverse schedule impacts incurred by the Government and caused by the Contractor changing the approved schedule start date.
1.9.2 Post-Dredge Hydrographic Survey
After the Contracting Officer accepts the dredging and final sediment removal work, the Government will perform the post-dredge survey using an independent hydrographic surveyor. The hydrographic surveyor will be operating within and adjacent to the sediment removal boundary to survey the exposed stilling basin surfaces. The Contractor will need to coordinate with the Contracting Officer to ensure the hydrographic surveyor can complete the post dredge survey operations within 5 days of the completion of dredging operations.
