PROJECT WORK REQUIREMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS

07/07

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 DEFINITIONS

a. Facility: The facility is:

Fort Lee.

b. Abbreviations:

CO: Contracting Officer or his authorized representative.

1.2 SPECIAL CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS

1.2.1 Project Phasing and Performance period

The Contractor shall complete the work within the duration specified in Section 00 73 00 "Contract Requirements".

1.2.2 STRUCTURAL DRAWING DIMENSIONS

The building layout, including both horizontal and vertical dimensions, is shown on the Architectural sheets contained in the contract drawings.

The Contractor shall use the dimensions from the Architectural sheets to obtain dimensions for foundation layout and structural members as necessary to prepare all shop drawings and fabricate structural members. There may be some instances where the Contractor shall have to adjust actual dimensions to the submitted items that he will use, to finalize the location of a structural member. Any such adjustments shall be clearly identified on the submitted shop drawings for Government review.

1.3 COOPERATION WITH USING AGENCY AND OTHER CONTRACTORS

During the period of this contract, other contracts may be in force for the construction of other features of work on or adjacent to the site of work being accomplished under this contract. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor on this contract to be fully informed of the extent of the limits of work to be performed by other Contractors. Should there be any conflict between these limits, it shall be brought to the attention of the Contracting Officer(CO)and the CO's decision shall be final. Also, prior to completion of work under this contract, members of the Using Agency may be performing work or occupying facilities on or adjacent to the area. The Contractor shall arrange his plant and shall schedule and perform this work so as to effectively cooperate with all other Contractors and Government agencies.

1.4 PERSONNEL RESTRICTIONS

Personnel are limited to the immediate site areas and shall not enter buildings or facilities not involved in the work. All employees of the Contractor will be subject to all rules and regulations of the Facility which pertain to personnel. The Contractor shall erect fences and signs as specified and be responsible for the restrictions of all personnel. The

SECTION 01 30 00.10 50 Page 1

Contractor's plans for restricting personnel access to the project site shall be submitted for approval as a part of the Safety Plan (Accident Prevention Plan). Facility access shall be restricted. Contractor shall comply with current security requirements. All vehicles shall be registered with the military police.

1.4.1 RAPIDGate

Effective July 2, 2007, Fort Lee is implementing more restrictive access procedures that will affect non-military personnel who require routine access to the installation. In order to streamline access specifically for our vendors, contractors, sub-contractors and service providers, we are also implementing a new standardized entry protocol called the RAPIDGate Program. This program is for all new and existing vendors, contractors, sub-contractors, and service providers who require routine access to Fort Lee and desire a faster and more efficient method to access the installation.

The RAPIDGate ("Registered And Previously ID'd") Program, provided by Eid Passport, Inc. is just one of several steps Fort Lee is undertaking to comply with Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12). The Program is designed to enhance the ability of vendors, contractors, sub-contractors, and service providers to access Fort Lee under the more restrictive security changes. The RAPIDGate Program will provide a standardized background check, an identification badge and entry procedures that improve security while at the same time provide quicker access to the installation. The RAPIDGate identification badge will be valid for a period of twelve (12) months. At the end of the 12 month period, the vendor company will be given an opportunity to renew enrollment in the program.

Contractors that have been issued a Common Access Card (CAC) are not required to participate in the RAPIDGate Program.

Companies that service the Fort Lee can enroll in the RAPIDGate Program by calling 1-877-RAPIDGATE (1-877-727-4342). Once the company has enrolled, their employees can register at the self-service Registration Stations located at the Lee Gate Visitor Center. There is a annual company and per employee fee associated RAPIDGate program. Furthermore, the information collected runs a 10- year felony background screen, other criminal screens, and validates the Social Security number. The RAPIDGate Program also verifies that the individual is legally eligible to work in the United States. Once the employee's identity is verified they will be issued a personalized identification badge that will allow access to Fort Lee through Lee Gate, Jackson Circle Gate, Mahone Gate, Sisisky Gate, A Avenue Gate, Shop Road Gate, and 19 Street Gate without having to obtain a temporary pass, undergo a security screening or a vehicle inspection, etc.

The RAPIDGate program is estimated to save company employees 30-60 minutes per visit. The process from company enrollment to the employee receiving their badge is approximately 2 weeks.

Companies that choose not to participate in the RAPIDGate Program will only be allowed to access Fort Lee through only designated construction traffic gate (currently Shop Road Gate). Vehicle inspection will be mandatory. All vehicle occupants must be prepared to provide a government issued photo ID.

The driver of the vehicle will be required to provide proof of vehicle registration and proof of insurance. Extended Passes will no longer be available beginning July 2, 2007.

Fort Lee RAPIDGate participants are still subject to random inspections and access rights may change due to extreme threat levels and/or Force

Weighted guidelines method of determining profit shall be used on any

SECTION 01 30 00.10 50 Page 10 equitable adjustment change order or modification issued under this contract. The profit factors shall be as follows:

Factor Rate Weight Value

Degree of Risk 20 Relative difficulty of work 15 Size of Job 15 Period of performance 15 Contractor's investment 05 Assistance by Government 05 Subcontracting 25

1.18.2 Value

Based on the circumstances of each procurement action, each of the above factors shall be weighted from .03 to .12 as indicated below. The value shall be obtained by multiplying the rate by the weight. The value column when totaled indicates the fair and reasonable profit percentage under the circumstances of the particular procurement.

1.18.2.1 Degree of Risk

Where the work involves no risk or the degree of risk is very small, the weighting should be .03; as the degree of risk increases, the weighting should be increased up to a maximum of .12. Lump sum items will have, generally, a higher weighted value than the unit price items for which quantities are provided. Other things to consider: the portion of the work to be done by subcontractors, nature of work, where work is to be performed, reasonableness of negotiated costs, amount of labor included in costs, and whether the negotiation is before or after performance of work.

1.18.2.2 Relative Difficulty of Work

If the work is most difficult and complex, the weighting should be .12 and should be proportionately reduced to .03 on the simplest of jobs. This factor is tied in to some extent with the degree of risk. Some things to consider: the nature of the work, by whom it is to be done, where, and what is the time schedule.

1.18.2.3 Size of Job

All work not in excess of $100,000 shall be weighted at .12. Work estimated between $100,000 and $5,000,000 shall be proportionately weighted from .12 to .05.

1.18.2.4 Periods of Performance

Jobs in excess of 24 months are to be weighted at .12. Jobs of lesser duration are to be proportionately weighted to a minimum of .03 for jobs not to exceed 30 days. No weight where additional time not required.

1.18.2.5 Contractor's Investment

To be weighted from .03 to .12 on the basis of below average, average, and above average. Things to consider: amount of subcontracting, mobilization payment item, Government furnished property, equipment and facilities, and expediting assistance.

SECTION 01 30 00.10 50 Page 11

1.18.2.6 Assistance by Government

To be weighted from .12 to .03 on the basis of average to above average.

Things to consider: use of Government owned property, equipment and facilities, and expediting assistance.

1.18.2.7 Subcontracting

To be weighted inversely proportional to the amount of subcontracting.

Where 80 percent or more of the work is to be subcontracted, the weighting is to be .03 and such weighting proportionately increased to .12 where all the work is performed by the Contractor's own forces.

1.19 Real Property Items

The Contractor shall coordinate with the Fort Lee Real Property Officer and prepare a list of real property items constructed under the subject contract. The list shall include the following: category code, real property item description, # of units, units of measure, and total quantity.
