4. MAJOR REQUIREMENTS

4.1. In-brief Meeting The Contractor shall coordinate the date of the in-brief meeting with the DPW POC and USACE POCs. This in-brief should be performed before beginning the inspection and should explain the survey procedures and describe the Garrison support needed to complete the evaluation. This in-brief may be conducted virtually. A copy of the notes documenting the meeting will be provided to the USACE POC.

4.2. Inventory Update. The Government will provide the Contractor with a copy of the PAVER™ database that includes the pavement inventory sections and sample units. The Contractor will be responsible for updating the section and sample unit GIS shape files to reflect any changes found in the field. The sample unit map shall include all sample units, not just those being inspected. The database should only include a shapefile for sections and a second shapefile for sample units. The Contractor will update or add (if missing) any work history for all pavement sections in the inventory. This includes the use of Garrison documents as well as Google Earth Imagery.

4.3. Collect condition data. The survey will be performed manually according to ASTM D6433 (20 or later), except the rate of sampling shall follow the table below instead of that provided in the ASTM paragraph 7.6. Each inspection team shall include at least two persons for safety. At least one member of the inspection team will have had considerable experience in performing PCI pavement inspection as per ASTM D6433-18 standard. Inspectors should identify distress types accurately 95% of the time. The accuracy will be based on the results of quality assurance inspections by the Government. Linear measurements should be considered accurate when they are within 10% if remeasured. Area measurements should be considered accurate when they are within 20% if remeasured. Distress severities that one determines based on ride quality are considered subjective. The use of additional sample units (type A sample units) should be exercised when the situation in the field warrants. This will be done in addition to the representative sample units (type R sample units) chosen as specified in the table below.

All sample units selected for inspection should be representative of the section and should be identified on the Sample Unit Map. A single representative inspection date should be applied to all inspections as compared to a different inspection date for different sections.

Provide at least two photographs for each surveyed sample unit. One of the photographs should be an overview of the sample unit. The other photograph(s) should show the significant distresses in the sample unit. All photographs should have GPS coordinates. A table showing a list of photographs for each sample unit shall be provided by the Contractor. The table will include the pavement network, branch, section, and sample unit where the photographs were taken. All photographs should be associated with the appropriate pavement section; however the photographs should be stored in an external media instead of the PAVER™ database. The external media shall be provided to the Government. Photo file name to follow the naming convention: “NetworkID_BranchID_SectionID_SampleID_Photonumber”

Enter condition data into database and perform data verification and provide an error-free PAVER™ database verification run. Submit PAVER™ Database and photos to the USACE POC as Database Draft #1. These photographs will be used for initial QA/QC of the survey.

The USACE POC may meet the Contractor during the collection of condition data. The Contractor shall notify the USACE POC at least 3 weeks prior to collecting condition data.

4.4. Database Cleanup. The Contractor shall update the database to remove any unused information in the system tables.

4.5. Update Prediction Models. Update prediction models of the surveyed pavements using the entered work history and pavement conditions. The last construction date for all sections shall be determined from Garrison records or backcalculated. At a minimum, prediction models will be developed for each combination of Branch Use and Surface Type. The critical PCI will be 70 for primary roads and 55 for secondary and tertiary roads. After review and approval of the models and Critical PCI, the developed models should be assigned to the appropriate pavement sections. The prediction models should be reviewed by the USACE POC before the Work Plans are performed.

4.6. Condition Performance Analysis. Perform condition analysis (e.g. Past, current, and future condition assuming only stop-gap M&R).

4.7. Rate of Deterioration Table. For a Re-inspection the Rate of Deterioration Table shall be created in Microsoft Excel which compares the PCI of each section from the last previous inspection with the current inspection. The Rate of Deterioration Table shall be submitted and reviewed by the USACE POC.

4.8. Update Existing PCI vs. Cost Models. All M&R cost tables and PCI vs. Cost models should be reviewed by the USACE Technical POC before performing the work plan analysis. Submit PAVER™ Database to the USACE POC as Database Draft #2.

4.9. 10-Year Work Planning Analysis. Perform a 10-year work planning analysis for the entire inventory which is 5 years more than the period required to meet the management objectives. This will allow for the determination of the M&R cost for the second 5 years of the budget scenario (e.g. Consequence of different budgets and required budgets to reach management objectives. Develop and save M&R budget requirements using four (4) budget scenarios. Each of the budget scenarios are described below in this paragraph. Each budget requirement scenario will list the type of work required and estimated cost for completing the work. The budget requirement scenarios should cover a period of five (5) years, from the time of inspection, and utilize the appropriate M&R families. At a minimum, two (2) separate M&R families will be developed, one for asphalt and one for concrete pavements.

Budget Scenarios Shall Include:

Scenario 1: Cost per year to eliminate major M&R backlog in five (5) years Scenario 2: Cost per year to maintain current area weighted PCI for five (5) years Scenario 3: Projected PCI at current and projected budget level Scenario 4: Cost for M&R to deal with safety issues only with projected drop in PCI

The first year of the work plan will be the next fiscal year after the inspections are completed.

4.10. Develop List of Projects. Develop a list of projects recommended for the following three (3) years using the PAVER™™ project formulation wizard. The projects shall be included in the PAVER™ database delivered to the Government. The first year will be the next fiscal year after the inspections are completed. The projects will include specific work types and costs. The work type names included in PAVER™ shall be used unless otherwise approved by the USACE POC’s. This list should be based on the PAVER™ analysis and to meet installation mission requirements. A project formulation is different than the automated section level work recommended by the PAVER™ work plan. The formulated projects would normally consist of multiple sections for economy of scale. Also, work should be in terms of work type, for example cold mill and overlay, slurry seal, etc as opposed to the recommended work by PAVER™ which is only in terms of category, such as global and major. A draft list of projects shall be submitted to the installation for review. In addition to the list of projects, the Contractor shall develop a table (M&R Details for Project Sections) which explains the M&R recommendations for each project. The approved list of projects, M&R Details for Project Sections and color coded maps showing the projects will be included in the report. Submit PAVER™ Database to the USACE POC’s as Database Draft #3 to include all recommended projects.

4.11. Project Formulation Out-brief Meeting. The Contractor shall meet with the DPW project manager virtually to discuss the survey results and verify the list of projects and the years they are to be scheduled. The Contractor shall coordinate the date of the out-brief meeting with the DPW Project Manager and Contract Technical and Administrative POCs. There is a strong possibility that the USACE POC’s will be joining the out-brief, therefore an advance notice should be provided by the Contractor (preferably 3 weeks). A copy of the notes documenting the meeting will be provided to the Contract Technical POC. These notes will include any questions or issues raised by the Garrison personnel regarding the survey results or the proposed list of projects.

4.12. ISR Reporting. The contractor shall report all existing surfaced area conditions vs. the surfaced area requirements as outlined in DA PAM 420-1-3 (Chapter 3). This report shall outline the deficiencies of each section individually, each categorized section group and all surfaced areas as a whole. The Report shall sufficiently provide results showing the “percentage of surface areas that meet pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating per AR 420-1 (Chapter 7) and DA PAM 420-1-3.”

4.13. Reports. Generate Reports as described in the SOW Attachment. Upon completion of the draft report, please submit to the Government for final.

5. QUALITY ASSURANCE

The Government may perform a quality assurance inspection of selected sample units as well as a quality assurance review of all PAVER™ data. If in the opinion of the USACE POC, an error which is clearly the fault of the Architect-Engineer is encountered, the Contracting Officer may direct the Contractor to immediately contact the USACE POC for the purpose of rectifying the mistake. The Contractor shall perform such services in the manner directed by the Contracting Officer at no additional cost to the Government and on an expedited schedule. In the event that the Contractor should dispute the Contracting Officer’s decision in this regard, it shall be considered a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of Disputes article of the contract and, pending final decision of the dispute, the Contractor shall proceed diligently with the work and services in accordance with the decision of the Contracting Officer.
