SECTION 00800 - SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

The following have been modified:

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

1. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BONDS FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS AND

MODIFICATIONS

The Contractor shall provide Performance and Payment Bonds identified in FAR 52.228-15 (DEV), Performance and Payment Bonds within the time specified in Block 12b of the SF 1442 (Far 28.102-1(b)(1)). Failure to provide executable documents within the stipulated timeframe may result in a payment delay or a termination action.

FAR 52.228-2, Additional Bonds Security, requires the Contractor to promptly furnish additional security if (a) Any surety upon any bond, or issuing financial institution for other security, furnished with this contract becomes unacceptable to the Government;(b) Any surety fails to furnish reports on its financial condition as required by the Government; (c) The contract price is increased so that the penal sum of any bond becomes inadequate in the opinion of the Contracting Officer; or (d) An irrevocable letter of credit (ILC) used as security will expire before the end of the period of required security. If the Contractor does not furnish an acceptable extension or replacement ILC, or other acceptable substitute, at least 30 days before an ILC’s scheduled expiration, the Contracting officer has the right to immediately draw on the ILC.

2. AWARD OF CONTRACT AND NOTICE TO PROCEED (NTP)

A Notice to Proceed will be given only after approval of required payment protection submitted in accordance with FAR Subpart

28. Standard Forms 25 and 25A are available at http://www.gsa.gov/Portal/gsa/ep/formslibrary. No billable work shall commence under this contract/ modification until after the contractor receives the NTP.

Work shall commence on the job site no later than the 5 calendar days following the date of Notice to Proceed, and all construction and contractual requirements shall be completed no later than the ending date of the period of performance cited in this contract.

3. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT PROGRESS PAYMENT REQUESTS

The Contractor shall read and be familiar with FAR Clause 52.232-5, Payments Under Fixed Price Construction Contracts, and 52.232-27, Prompt Payment for Construction Contracts.

FAR Clause 52.232-5 stipulates that the Government shall make progress payments monthly as work proceeds. Each progress payment request shall include all of the elements delineated at subparagraph (b)(1)(i)-(v). Failure to comply with the minimum requirements in this reference will result in immediate rejection of the invoice until corrected.

Further sub-paragraph (e), Retainage, will be enforced. Relating back to the requirements for an appropriately detailed progress schedule, progress reports and progress payment requests shall be prepared in the same format as the approved progress schedule.

Every definable element of work will be shown on every progress report and every payment request. For every element of work not completed by the approved time (late performance), the Contracting Officer will retain the maximum 10% of the amount of the payment of each incident of late performance until the work is satisfactorily completed and inspected in accordance with instructions and standards identified elsewhere in this contract.

Further, sub-paragraph (g), Reimbursement for bond premiums, will be enforced. The contractor shall provide evidence of payment of bond premiums paid to the surety (including coinsurance and reinsurance) before being allowed to submit for reimbursement of those expenditures in a progress payment request.

FAR Clause 52.232-27 (a)(i)(A) discusses the due date for making progress payments as 14 days after the designated billing office receives a PROPER payment request (see discussion above). The Contracting Officer will date/time stamp receipt of each progress payment request package when it is delivered. That date/time will mark day one of the 14-day period for payment IF there is no disagreement over quantity, quality, or contractor compliance with contract requirements. If there is a disagreement in quantity, quality, or contractor compliance with any aspects of the contract at the time of delivery of the invoice, the invoice date/time stamp will be stricken through, initialed and returned to the contractor for correction. This effectively stops the clock and it will start over when a properly executed invoice is delivered to the Contracting Officer.

In accordance with DFARS 252.232-7003, the Contracting Officer hereby determines that the following process is in compliance with DFARS: Once the invoice has been certified by the Contracting Officer, AND the contractor receives a signed copy, the contractor shall initiate a Construction Payment Invoice in WAWF, and route it directly to the COR identified in this contract.

The DODAAC that will be used in preparing the WAWF invoice is “W91VB1”. When the COR receives the WAWF invoice, he/she will verify the information submitted with the (local progress payment request form) approved invoice; if all information between the two documents is verified as correct and appropriate, the COR will perform the role of Acceptor, and approve the invoice forward to the DFAS for processing of the payment. For contracts with a period of performance of 60 days or less the Contracting Officer has determined that no progress payment will be authorized. The Contractor shall be entitled to bill the Government for such projects only after completing a final inspection (and clearing any punch list generated), completion of any applicable O&M classes (to be coordinated with the COR), submission of final paperwork (i.e., as built drawings, DD 1354), and after confirming all certified payroll records have been submitted to the Government.

For projects negotiated with a longer performance period, progress payments are authorized one time each month, up to 90% of the project cost, but only after approval of a construction progress schedule, and only in the amounts verified on subsequently approved progress reports. Progress payment invoices will not be processed in the same week as the progress report is submitted.

No progress payments are authorized above 90% of the contract value.

4. AVAILABILITY AND USE OF UTILITY SERVICES

a.) In accordance with FAR Clause 52.236-14, Availability and Use of Utility Services, water and electricity are furnished by the Government for the Contractor's use at no charge and in the performance of construction work at the job site, but only to the extent that their use is necessary to complete the work and the utilities are readily available at the site. Any usage of these utilities beyond what is needed to complete construction work at the job site or exceeds that which is readily available at the job site, and approved for use by the Contracting Officer, shall be furnished by the Contractor at its own expense. These utilities are provided provisionally and only to the extent that is necessary to facilitate the work This authority can be revoked if the Government witnesses that utilities are being wasted; e.g., lights being left on when no work is being done or water is being left on unattended for any extended amount of time. Failure of the Contractor to comply with this request to conserve and preserve these utilities will result in the Contractor entering into individual metering agreements at the job site and paying for the use of these utilities.

b.) In reference to FAR Clause 52.236-10, Operations and Storage Areas, SHOULD the Contractor be AUTHORIZED to establish a field operations office or a temporary staging area under this contract, it shall be responsible for consumption of available utilities. Prior to commencement of work under the contract, the contractor shall sign a utility metering agreement with the installation Directorate of Public Works Utilities Section. Prior to final payment under the contract, the contractor shall pay any outstanding utility charges and provide a copy of the paid invoice to the Contracting Officer as evidence of compliance. If the solicitation does not provide for such arrangements, and the contractor did not receive separate approval for the establishment of such facilities/space from the Contracting Officer, no such authorization is assumed.

Any costs incurred for the establishment of field operations facilities after contract award are made solely at the contractor’s cost, and without compensation by the Government. There shall be no squatting on the job site.

5. WRITTEN GUARANTEES AND GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE

The Government is entitled to all standard commercially offered warranties/guarantees. The Contractor shall obtain all warranties, have them executed in writing, and furnish them to the Contracting Officer prior to final inspection.

Additionally, the documentation shall include the name, address, and telephone number of the guarantor's representative responsible for the guarantee during the warranted period, and who will provide warranty related services covered by the warranty/guarantee. The existence of any commercial manufacturer’s warranties does not relieve the contractor of responsibilities identified in FAR clause 52.246-21.

6. DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT SUBCONTRACT AWARDS

a) Within five calendar days after the award of any subcontract, the Contractor shall deliver a completed SF Form 1413 (Statement and Acknowledgment) to the Contracting Officer. Each subcontract shall contain, as a minimum, the Contract Number, Task Order Number (if applicable), and Title. The subcontract must clearly identify what the subcontractor will be performing in relation to other trades on the job. All subcontracts shall contain the anticipated period of performance that correlates with the approved Progress

Schedule for that Division of work. A sample format shall be submitted for Contracting Officer approval prior to commencement of work under this contract.

b) FAR Clause 52.222-11, entitled "Subcontracts (Labor Standards)", requires that the clauses listed therein be physically inserted in all subcontracts. However, if the Contractor subcontracts by means of purchase orders or other informal types of contractual situations, compliance will be considered provided if clauses are attached to the subcontract form. Written acknowledgement by the subcontractor of these Labor Standards is required. Incorporation by reference does not constitute compliance.

7. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOVERNMENT, CONTRACTOR AND CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL

a) The Government and the Contractor understand and agree that the services to be delivered under this contract are non-personal services and that no employer-employee or master-servant relationship exists or will exist under the contract between the Government and the Contractor or between the Government and the Contractor's personnel. Further, the Contractor is not the Government's agent.

b) The Government will not exercise any supervision or control over Contractor personnel performing services under this contract. Contractor personnel shall not become an integrated part of the Government organization in connection with performance under this contract.

c) The work required under this contract does not require or authorize the Contractor or his employees to exercise personal judgment and discretion on behalf of the Government, but rather, the Contractor's employees shall act and exercise personal judgment and discretion on behalf of the Contractor.

d) Contractor personnel shall not be eligible, by virtue of performance under this contract, for payment by the Government of entitlements and benefits accorded federal employees. The entire consideration to the Contractor for performance of this contract is contained in the provisions for payment set forth in this contract.
