Since the Contractor's obligations specified in Section 32 92 00.00 09 EXISTING TURF MAINTENANCE AND NEW TURF ESTABLISHMENT may extend beyond the completion time specified in paragraph COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK, these periods and the additional work, if required, will be exempt from liquidated damages provided all other work has been completed.

(4) Be responsible for any errors that might have been avoided by complying with this paragraph (b); and

The Contractor shall perform such details as if fully and correctly set forth and described in the drawings and specifications.

(e) The work shall conform to the specifications and the contract drawings identified on the INDEX TO DRAWINGS.

(DFARS 252.236-7001)

1.5 CORRESPONDENCE AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION

For ease and speed of communications, both the Government and Contractor shall exchange correspondence and all other documents duplicate in both hard paper copy and electronic format.

Electronic submission can be accomplished by one of the following methods: email, file upload to the following website https://safe.amrdec.army.mil/SAFE, or through the Resident Management System - Contractor Mode (RMS-CM) software interface with the Resident Management System (RMS).

Documents include all general correspondence, administrative plans, all material submittals including shop drawings, progress schedules, submittal registers, requests for information (RFIs), Quality Control (QC) test results, pay requests, etc.

Paper documents will govern, in the event of discrepancy with the electronic version. Generally, paper documents will also govern where effective receipt dates are required, such as contractor claims submitted under the Disputes clause of the contract and progress payment requests.

However in the case of administrative plans, shop drawings and other submittals transmitted for government review, both the electronic and hard copies are required to begin the review process, so the effective date of receipt will be the date when both the electronic and hard copies are received by the government.
