Statement of Work

3. SCHEDULING

3.1. Normal base work hours for the Contractor will be between the hours of 7:00 AM through 4:30 PM, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal Holidays. If the Contractor desires to work during periods other than above, he must notify the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) five (5) working days in advance of his intention to work during other periods to allow assignment of additional inspection forces. When the COR determines that they are reasonably available, he may authorize the Contractor to perform work during periods other than normal duty hours/days. However, if inspectors are required to perform in excess of their normal duty hours/days solely for the benefit of the Contractor, the actual cost of the inspection, at overtime rates, will be charged to the Contractor and will be deducted from the final payment of the Contract amount.

3.2. The following Federal legal Holidays are observed by this base:

New Year’s Day 1 January Martin Luther King’s Birthday Third Monday of January President’s Day Third Monday of February Memorial Day Last Monday of May Juneteenth 19 June Independence Day 4 July Labor Day First Monday in September Columbus Day Second Monday in October Veteran’s Day 11 November Thanksgiving Day Fourth Thursday in November Christmas Day 25 December

When relocating to new sites, returning to sites for follow-up work on a phased work plan, notification to the Contracting Officer’s Representative is sufficient. Notification should be by personal contact; however, advance notification may be by telephone, or in writing, and should be accomplished sufficiently in advance to allow scheduling of inspection forces. The purpose of the above precautions is to ensure construction inspection and recording of work proceedings.

3.5. The organization of the specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, and the arrangement of the drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the work among subcontractors or in establishing the extent of the work to be performed by any trade.

4. INVOICING AND PAYMENT
