3.2 Contractor’s deviations from the Contract requirements

(shall be defined in a letter submitted to the Contracting Officer with justification, analysis, and detailed cost savings and shall also be presented and highlighted in a separate section in the analysis so it is clear to the reviewer) may be considered by the Government, and where appropriate, may be specifically approved by the Contracting Officer. Deviations from the contract requirements shall not be assumed or considered approved unless contractually approved by the Contracting Officer in writing. Such deviations, when not contractually approved by the Contracting Officer or when subsequently found at any time during the contract, shall be corrected by the Contractor at no additional time or cost to the Government. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to clearly note features/aspects in his design or construction that are deviations to the contract requirements. The Contractor shall not assume silence on such issues by the Government to be a sign of acceptance. The Contractor is cautioned to not work verbally approved adjustments to the contract but rather to work adjustments to the contract in writing with Government personnel having appropriate authority to execute such adjustments to the contract.

01 33 16-4

4 Existing Project/Site Conditions

4.1 The Contractor shall field verify existing project/site

conditions, by means deemed appropriate and necessary for proposal, design, and construction to yield a safe, complete, and useable facility/supporting features for the intended use. The information shall be reflected in the design documents.

5 Specification Number & Drawing File Numbers

5.1 All drawings and all submittal documentation shall be

digitized. Provide all digitized drawing deliverables in AutoDesk AutoCAD software, release 2004 compatible format and provide all other deliverables in MS WORD format. The contractor shall be responsible for design and drawings using computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) and delivering the two dimensional drawings in AutoDesk AutoCAD software, release 2004. The Government will only accept the final product for full operation, and on the target platform specified herein. The target platform is a Pentium 3.0 GHz, 512 MB Ram, and 40 GB Hard Drive with MicroSoft Windows XP operating system. Drawings produced by scanning drawings of record or containing photographic images shall be delivered in a raster format compatible with the target platform AutoCAD electronic digital format. Drawing files shall also be delivered in Portable Document Format (PDF). Media for deliverables shall be Compact Disc. Compact discs shall be furnished in addition to hard copy drawings. Text height for all Design drawings shall be minimum 1/8-inch high.

6 Design Charrette Meeting

6.1 During the third full week following the NTP the Contractor shall conduct a five-day Design Charrette Meeting at Dugway Proving Ground (location & time TBD) with Dugway users to discuss the program requirements, to further develop layout/floor plans, flow patterns, supporting feature locations, utility service connections routings, and Beneficial Occupancy Date. The text height for all Design Charrette drawings shall be minimum 1/8-inch high. The Contractor shall establish the agenda. The Charrette shall be scheduled to begin on a Tuesday (not adjacent to a Monday that is a national holiday) to allow travel on Monday.

6.2 Representing the Contractor shall be the Contractor’s Project Manager and Design/Engineer Team (appropriate disciplines).

01 33 16-5

6.3 The Contractor shall chair the conference. Minimum requirements for the conference are:

6.3.1 The Contractor shall conduct “splinter” meetings and receive immediate input on their initial presentation.

6.3.2 The Contractor shall (on the 4th and 5th days) present their adjusted presentations. A copy of the PowerPoint slides (with adjustments) shall be printed and bound and a copy given to each attendee at the beginning of the presentation. Immediately following the presentation the Contractor shall conduct additional splinter meetings to receive further refinements

6.3.3 The Contractor shall make final adjustments to their

presentation and on the final day make a final presentation to the Dugway Proving Ground's Representative. A copy of the PowerPoint slides (with adjustments) shall be printed and bound and a copy given to each attendee at the beginning of the presentation.

7 Design Quality Control Plan

7.1 The Contractor shall submit the Design Quality Control

(DQC) Plan see Section 01 45 04.00 10 --- also cross reference to portions of this Section (01 33 16) that may have applicable additional design team, minimum qualifications. The Contractor shall correct this plan and re-submit until such time as the Contracting Officer accepts it. The Contracting Officer will not entertain a design charrette until the Contracting Officer accepts this plan.

This plan is extremely important and allows the Government an opportunity to review processes proposed to be used by the Contractor. Since a technical review is no longer conducted on the design deliverables --- review of this plan by the Government helps to ensure steps are taken to reduce risk of error. The Contractor's DQC Plan shall provide and maintain an effective quality control program, which will assure that all services required by this design-build contract are performed and provided in a manner that meets professional design and engineering quality standards. The Contractor shall allow for a 15 WORKING DAY government review period for each submittal of the DQC Plan.

01 33 16-6

7.2 CAUTION: A SUBMITTAL NOT READY FOR A GOV’T QUALITY

ASSURANCE REVIEW WILL WASTE GOV’T RESOURCES AND POSSIBLY DELAY

EXPECTATIONS OF THE CONTRACTOR AT THE CONTRACTOR’S EXPENSE. IT IS

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT EACH SUBMITTAL RECEIVE AN INTERNAL CONTRACTOR

QUALITY CONTROL REVIEW, INDEPENDENT TECHNICAL REVIEW, AND CORRECTIONS

BEFORE SUBMITTING TO THE GOV’T.

7.3 CAUTION: THE GOVT’S QUALITY ASSURANCE REVIEW IS

DESIGNED TO BE A SPOT CHECK --- IT WILL NOT BE A TECHNICAL REVIEW ---

ADEQUATE RESOURCES TO ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING MORE ARE NOT PROVIDED. THE

CONTRACTOR MUST PERFORM QUALITY CONTROL ON ALL SUBMITTALS. THE

CONTRACTOR IS CAUTIONED --- THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT PLAN TO CONDUCT

TECHNICAL REVIEW OF DESIGN DELIVERABLES SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW. THE

GOVERNMENT REVIEW WILL NOT FOCUS ON THE CALCUALTIONS, CODE

COMPLIANCE, OR ANY OTHER TECHNICAL ASPECT RELATED TO CONTRACT

COMPLIANCE. NEVERTHELESS --- THE GOVERNMENT DOES RESERVE THE RIGHT

TO MAKE SUCH COMMENTS SHOULD THE SITUATION ARISE.

8 Design and Construction Schedule

8.1 The contractor shall have the freedom to establish the

design and construction schedule within contract period of service.

Both design schedule and construction schedule data shall be placed on a single overall schedule to facilitate an overall understanding of the presented logic.

8.1.1 The contractor shall include on the schedule a 15 WORKING day period for the government to conduct a quality assurance compliance review for each submittal.

8.1.2 The contractor shall include on the schedule a 1 calendar day period for a compliance review conference related to each submittal with the exception of the Charrette submittal. These conferences shall not be scheduled during a weekend or holiday or on a day of the week that is adjacent to a day of a weekend or holiday.

This typically will leave Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays (except as holidays impact) for these conferences.

8.2 The Contractor shall submit one schedule; consisting of

both the design activities and the construction activities.

8.2.1 The design schedule shall be submitted within the first 20 calendar days after the date of Notice To Proceed. The design schedule shall include all activities associated with the design. On this schedule include as much clarity as can be provided of

01 33 16-7 construction activities with appropriate logic.

8.2.2 The Contractor shall refine the schedule with finalized construction activities not later than 90 calendar days prior to the desired start of the construction activities; which includes any applicable site work. The construction schedule shall contain all activities associated with the design and construction of the project, complete and useable for its intended purpose. Construction performance shall not begin until a 15 calendar day period following the Contracting Officer’s acceptance of the construction schedule has occurred. Re-submittals due to Contractor controlled deficiencies will not constitute a time or cost change to the contract. The Contracting Officer will have 15 WORKING days to conduct review and provide comments to the Contractor for the submittal and each re-submittal. The Contractor is encouraged to discuss deficiencies with the Contracting Officer prior to re-submission.

9 Design Submittal Requirements

9.1 The contractor may be able to follow ‘Fast-tracking’ of

construction, with contracting officer authority to proceed, however this is not a specific project requirement. This would be applied only on portions of the work for which the Government has reviewed the final design submission (on that portion of the work) and all Government review questions/concerns having been satisfactorily addressed by the contractor --- and the Contracting Officer provides authorization to proceed. If this portion of the work is sensitive to weather (heat, cold, rain, snow, wind, or any other weather situation) or any other situation precluding normal construction techniques, the contractor shall also submit to the Contracting Officer a plan to conduct this work (referencing and following industry standards or more stringent government standards) for compliance review. Therefore, construction on this project will not be held due to any typical inclement weather or other scenario conditions as long as the contractor first demonstrates the ability to construct in such condition with the above described plan and the Contracting Officer has provided authorization to proceed.

9.2 The Contractor and Contracting Officer will coordinate meetings with the facility End-User to further discuss the requirements herein.

The Contractor has the responsibility to establish the design of this project in accordance with the contract, including discussions with Dugway Proving Ground Organizations through proper coordination with the Contracting Officer. Such meetings are intended to allow the Contractor an opportunity to discuss, clarify, and obtain an understanding, in a face-to-face setting, on issues, opportunities, or mission restraints still in question. The spirit of this meeting is not intended to adjust the contract in any manner but rather to allow the Contractor/Customer relationship to begin and grow. This meeting can be associated with a partnering session or can be a stand-alone meeting but needs to occur early in the design phase of

01 33 16-8 the contract.

9.3 Design deliverables will be submitted as identified within this section, during the design phase. However, for construction deliverables, refer to Section 01 33 00 for submittals that are required during the construction phase.

9.3.1 Every new construction feature of this project must be

fully designed and ”For Construction” drawings submitted and approved prior to the start of construction for that feature or interfacing features. The contractor shall try to minimize the number of design submittals. The Contractor can submit design deliverables from multiple tracks in the same submittal, when possible.

9.3.2 It’s acceptable to take major areas of the design and put each on a two or three-submittal track but, the contractor shall not have more than two major areas and tracks (plus the Charrette Track), i.e., major area items vs. percent complete for each track:

MAJOR AREA / Submittals � 1 2 3 4 5 Charrette Track 90% Dugway AFH Housing 60% 90%

Where: 60% = Preliminary Design Submittal Compliance Review

Submittal 90% = Charrette track --- or --- Final Design Complete, Fully Coordinated by Contractor, Ready to Build, Compliance Review Submittal

* See Paragraph 1.1.1 above for URL to locate the description of:

60% is equivalent to Preliminary 90% is equivalent to Final

9.4 The contractor shall ensure applicable features of the Final design are developed to a further design level and submitted for compliance review a minimum of two times, but not more than three times. Every project feature shall be submitted in final form. The Contractor shall ensure all details be included in the design documents before start of construction; with exception of those items/features allowed to be submitted at a later date during construction by the Contracting Officer.

9.5 Every design submittal shall include a separately bound Contract Status Booklet of all SF-30 contract modifications executed from contract award date to present on the contract. Included in this booklet shall be a copy of all RFIs submitted and the official clarification/recommendation responses (note --- RFI responses are not contract altering documents). Also include any official document(s) changing the conditions of the contract. This is an important booklet for the reviewers --- it’ll give the reviewer a

01 33 16-9 better understanding as to where the project has been since the contract was authored.

9.6 Each design submittal for review shall be distributed per the distribution matrix.

9.7 Each design submittal shall be completed to the stage/level commensurate with the stage of completion, i.e., 60%/90%, etc. All submittals for review shall be a required submittal. The Contractor shall determine his submittal scenario. For three submittals on a track, follow the distribution matrices below. For two submittals on a track, combine the 1st and 2nd round submittal matrix requirements into the 1st submittal. All of these deliverables shall be stamped "For Compliance Review Only --- %)"; and each sheet of the drawings shall have the same stamp. The back check submittal(s), following the Government reviews of the 90 percent final submittal, shall be packaged and stamped "For Compliance Back Check Review Only

- 90% --- each sheet of the drawings shall be stamped.

9.8 The contractor shall ensure every feature of the design is developed to a further design level on subsequent submittals unless already fully designed. Every project feature shall be submitted in final form.

9.9 Each design submittal shall include a submittal register. This submittal register shall be developed commensurate with the level of the design submittal. The submittal register is further discussed in the RFP.

9.10 The construction submittal shall be stamped “For Construction” — each sheet of the drawings shall be stamped with this statement. In addition, each sheet of the drawings shall be stamped and signed by the valid Registered Engineer or valid Registered Architect responsible for the design shown. Included shall be the certifications from each of the independent technical reviewers. In addition --- each drawing shall also be stamped and signed by the responsible licensed professional technical reviewer (two signed stamps required on each drawing). CRITICAL --- the “For Construction” documents shall not be developed until all DrChecks comments for the related track have been appropriately addressed and cleared back check process and no further comments exist for the track. Then and only then shall the “For Construction” documents be created and distributed.

9.11 Each submittal shall include appropriate drawings, specifications and design analysis including calculations along with other requirements as noted herein and in attachments. The Contractor shall prepare all drawing documents in AutoDesk AutoCAD, release 2004 format. The design drawings and technical specifications shall be dimensioned and specified using English traditional units of measure.

01 33 16-10

9.12 A compact disc of the entire submittal shall be developed and a single copy submitted to each addressee shown in the distribution matrix with each deliverable. It is paramount for all specification sections on the CD to be searchable by either MSWord or Adobe Acrobat --- the specifications shall not be scanned files.

9.13 The Contractor shall use the Unified Federal Guide Specification (UFGS) system to develop appropriate specifications for the design.

The Contractor shall not delete sections of the specifications without first coordinating with the Contracting Officer.

9.14 The Contractor shall follow the A/E/C Cadd Standards version 2.0 for layering, line weights, color assignments, etc., with local modifications, mainly in file naming, since we have base codes published. The other exception to the standards relates to the order of the drawings. The order of the drawings shall be in the following order: GSGCLSAIFMPE = General --- Surveys --- Geotechnical --- Civil --- Structural --- Architectural --- Fire Protection --- Mechanical - -- Plumbing --- Electrical --- Communications.

9.15 The use of shop drawings or continuation/extension of design (design defined, as requiring a design analysis, plans, and specifications) submittals once a design track has been finalized for construction shall not be allowed. The Contractor shall ensure the design is complete in all aspects before construction begins on the related track unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer.

10 Compliance Review Comments

10.1 Automated review management system: All review comments shall be processed via the Government program called DrChecks. The Contractor shall prepare for any appropriate comment review conference/meetings, by reviewing the comments in the DrChecks file(s). The Contractor shall print and bind ten (10) copies of comments and distribute them to attendees at the review conference. Unresolved comments/issues at the conference shall be resolved by immediate follow-on action.

Valid comments shall be incorporated. The Contractor shall annotate the DrChecks file prior to the next design submittal. Annotations shall be entered for each comment in DrChecks. Annotations shall explain if the comment is accepted along with what was done and where it was done --- or --- if the comment is denied, an explanation as to why. The Contractor is encouraged to contact the comment maker of any comments not fully understood to enhance the accuracy of the response to the comment.

10.2 Assistance with DrChecks can be received by calling Ms. Laura Haven, DrChecks Administrator, (916) 557-7651. Following contract award, the Contractor will need to contact Ms. Haven to register and receive a login and password.

10.3 The design documents will not be considered 100% complete and

01 33 16-11 ready for construction, until all comments for correction have been incorporated to the Government’s satisfaction and further back check reviews are deemed no longer necessary. Review comments for correction will be based on compliance with the RFP document requirements.

10.4 Each design submittal shall be accompanied with all previous DrChecks files for the project on compact disc in “Word” or .pdf format.

11 Compliance Review Conferences

11.1 All compliance review conferences shall be held at Dugway ---location to be determined prior to each conference.

11.2 The contractor shall be represented at these review conferences by each design discipline and the construction manager as a minimum.

11.3 Each conference shall be planned to occur over a 2.0-day period.

11.4 The Contractor shall prepare for and provide a briefing of the project to a Dugway audience during each compliance comment review conference. This briefing should focus on the functional and Customer mission related features of the project. The briefing will occur within the 2.0-day conference schedule. Overhead slides or other briefing materials are not required or preferred in support of this activity. Already-prepared project drawings, project renderings, and project color boards are the preferred briefing materials.

11.5 The Contractor shall prepare the confirmation notice (meeting minutes) for each conference within 14 calendars following each conference and email a copy to all attendees and stake holders listed on the distribution listing in this section. The confirmation notices shall list all action items discussed along with taskings (Contractor or Gov’t), all issues discussed with decisions, and latest schedule of upcoming events as a minimum.

12 Submittal Considerations

12.1 The contractor is required to begin design by following the design Charrette requirements herein stated --- involving participation of the users and Base Civil Engineer, in addition to the government design management team. The goal of the charrette is an approximate 20% concept design with emphasis on the remodeling/design planning, compatibility, and exterior/interior development. The charrette will produce deliverables including existing contextual photos to identify work to be performed, sketch-form analysis plan, applicable site plan, appropriate layout plans, cross-sections, elevations and details. The contractor is responsible for notifying the Contracting Officer of any requirements identified prior/during the charrette, in excess of the requirements stipulated in the RFP.

01 33 16-12

At the conclusion of the design charrette, the concept design shall be briefed by the contractor to higher Dugway management for general content with the intent to receive an indication of support. The Preliminary, Final and subsequent backcheck submittal formats, will be in accordance with A-E guide references identified under paragraph

1.1.1 (General Guidance).

13 ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS

19 Contractor Processing of DrChecks File

19.1 Unresolved problems will be resolved by immediate

follow-on action at end of conferences. The Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer within five (5) calendar days, two (2) copies of a Confirmation Notice for the Compliance Assurance Review Conference summarizing major decision points and issues which requires resolution and the action office.

19.2 On receipt of corrected submittal documents and at

the point at which all comments in the DrChecks System have been adequately addressed (to Sacramento District’s satisfaction), the Sacramento District will provide notification to the Contracting Officer noting that all comments have been addressed.

Withholding payment for unsatisfactory performance shall be made in accordance with CONTRACT CLAUSE, FAR 52.232-5, PAYMENTS UNDER

FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS.

19.3 The Contractor shall annotate the respective

DrChecks File for each phase of the design showing page or sheet and verse where the correction was made and what the correction consists of — this to assist the reviewers to quickly find the adjustment. These Contractor annotated DrChecks files shall be made on the DrChecks web site before the next submittal is received by the reviewers — therefore action is a part of the submittal requirements.

19.4 The Contractor shall submit corrected submittal

documents (back check) as noted above. Again — the appropriate DrChecks file shall be annotated and ready on the web site on or before the day the reviewers receive the back check submittal.

19.5 The Back check process along with the availability

of the Contractor annotated DrChecks file on the web site shall continue until all comments in the DrChecks file have been adequately addressed to the satisfaction of the Government Reviewers.
