1.2 ACCEPTANCE

Prior to the start of work, prepare and submit to the Contracting Officer for acceptance a Fabrication Schedule in the form of a Network Analysis Schedule (NAS).

The acceptance of a Baseline Fabrication Schedule is a condition precedent to:

a. The Contractor starting work on the fabrication stage(s) of the contract.

b. Processing Contractor's invoice(s) for fabrication activities/items of work.

c. Review of any schedule updates.

Submittal of the Baseline Schedule, and subsequent schedule updates, is understood to be the Contractor's certification that the submitted schedule meets all of the requirements of the Contract Documents, represents the Contractor's plan on how the work will be accomplished, and accurately reflects the work that has been accomplished and how it was sequenced (as-built logic).

1.3 SCHEDULE FORMAT

1.3.1 Network Analysis Schedule (NAS)

Use the critical path method (CPM) to schedule and control project activities. Prepare and maintain project schedules using Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project 2010. Importing data into the scheduling program using data conversion techniques or third party software is cause for rejection of the submitted schedule. Build the schedule as follows:

a. The Project Schedule must show submittals, Government review periods, material/equipment delivery, all fabrication, inspection, testing, and closeout activities. Government and Contractor work activities must be driven by calendars that reflect Saturdays, Sundays and all Federal Holidays as non-work days.

b. With the exception of the Contract Award and End Contract milestone activities, no activities shall be open-ended; each activity must have predecessor and successor ties. No activity must have open start or open finish (dangling) logic. Minimize redundant logic ties. Once an activity exists on the schedule it must not be deleted or renamed to change the scope of the activity and must not be removed from the schedule logic without approval from the Contracting Officer. While an activity cannot be deleted, where said activity is no longer applicable to the schedule but must remain within the logic stream for historical record, it can be changed to a milestone. Document any such change in the milestone's "Notebook", including a date and explanation for the change. The ID number for a deleted activity must not be re-used for another activity.

c. Each activity must be assigned its appropriate Responsibility Code indicating responsibility to accomplish the work indicated by the activity, Phase Code and Work Location Code.

d. Date/time constraint(s) and/or lags, other than those required by the contract, are not allowed unless accepted by the Contracting Officer.

Include as the last activity in the contract schedule, a milestone activity named "Contract Completion Date".

1.3.1.1 Primavera P6 Settings and Parameters

Use the following Primavera P6 settings and parameters in preparing the Baseline Schedule. Deviation from these settings and parameters, without prior consent of the Contracting Officer, is cause for rejection of schedule submission.

a. General: Define or establish Calendars and Activity Codes at the "Project" level, not the "Global" level.

b. Admin Drop-Down Menu, Admin Preferences, Time Periods Tab:

(1) Set time periods for P6 to 8.0 Hours/Day, 40.0 Hours/Week, 172.0 Hours/Month and 2000.0 Hours/Year.

(2) Use assigned calendar to specify the number of work hours for each time period: Must be checked.

c. Project Level, Dates Tab:

(1) Set "Must Finish By" date to "Contract Completion Date".

d. Project Level, Defaults Tab:

(1) Duration Type: Set to "Fixed Duration & Units".

(2) Percent Complete Type: Set to "Physical".

(3) Activity Type: Set to "Task Dependent".

(4) Calendar: Set to "Standard 5 Day Workweek". Calendar must reflect

Saturday, Sunday and all Federal holidays as non-work days.

Alternative calendars may be used with Contracting Officer approval.

e. Project Level, Calculations Tab:

(1) Activity percent complete based on activity steps: Must be Checked.

(2) Reset Remaining Duration and Units to Original: Must be Checked.

(3) Subtract Actual from At Completion: Must be Checked.

(4) Recalculate Actual units and Cost when duration percent(%) complete changes: Must be Checked.

(5) Link Actual to Date and Actual This Period Units and Cost: Must be Checked.

f. Project Level, Settings Tab:

(1) Define Critical Activities: Check "Total Float is less than or equal to" and add "0d".

1.3.1.2 Microsoft Project 2010 Settings and Parameters

The Network must have a minimum of 30 fabrication activities.

1.3.1.3 Cost Loading Microsoft Project 2010 Schedules

Assign material, labor and equipment costs to their respective Fabrication Activities. Evenly disperse overhead and profit to each activity over the duration of the project. Cost loading must total to 100 percent of the value of the contract.

a. Submit an Earned Value Report with each schedule update showing activity budget, cost percent complete, earned amount and cost to complete as directed by the Contracting Officer.

b. With each schedule submission, provide a Schedule Variance control (SVC) diagram showing:

(1) Cash Flow S-Curves indicating planned project cost based on projected early and late activity finish dates.

(2) Earned Value to-date. Revise Cash Flow S-Curves when the contract is modified, or as directed by the Contracting Officer.

1.3.2 Schedule Submittals and Procedures

Submit Network Analysis Schedules (NAS) and updates in hard copy and on electronic media that is acceptable to the Contracting Officer. Submit an electronic back-up of the project schedule in an import format compatible with the Government's scheduling program.

1.4 SCHEDULE MONTHLY UPDATES

Update the Fabrication Schedule at monthly intervals or when the schedule has been revised. The updated schedule must be kept current, reflecting actual activity progress and plan for completing the remaining work. Submit copies of purchase orders and confirmation of delivery dates as directed by the Contracting Officer.

a. Narrative Report: Provide with schedule updates. Identify and justify;

(1) Progress made in each area of the project

(2) Critical Path

(3) Date/time constraint(s), other than those required by the contract

(4) Changes in the following; added or deleted activities, original and remaining durations for activities that have not started, logic, milestones, planned sequence of operations, and critical path

(5) Status of Contract Completion Date and interim milestones;

(6) Current and anticipated delays (describe cause of delay and corrective actions(s) and mitigation measures to minimize);

(7) Description of current and future schedule problem areas.

Each entry in the narrative report must cite the respective Activity ID and Activity Description, the date and reason for the change, and description of the change.

1.5 CONTRACT MODIFICATION

Submit a Time Impact Analysis (TIA) with each cost and time proposal for a proposed change. TIA must illustrate the influence of each change or delay on the Contract Completion Date or milestones. No time extensions will be granted nor delay damages paid unless a delay occurs which consumes all available Project Float, and extends the Projected Finish beyond the Contract Completion Date.

a. Each TIA must be in both narrative and schedule form. The narrative must define the scope and conditions of the change; provide start and finish dates of impact, successor and predecessor activity to impact period, responsible party, describe how it originated, and how it impacts the schedule. The schedule submission must consist of three native files:

(1) Fragnet used to define the scope of the changed condition

(2) Most recent accepted schedule update as of the time of the proposal or claim submission that has been updated to show all activity progress as of the time of the impact start date.

(3) The impacted schedule that has the fragnet inserted in the updated schedule and the schedule "run" so that the new completion date is determined.

b. For claimed as-built project delay, the inserted fragnet TIA method must be modified to account for as-built events known to occur after the data date of schedule update used.

c. All TIAs must include any mitigation, and must determine the apportionment of the overall delay assignable to each individual delay. The associated narrative must clearly describe the findings in a chronological listing beginning with the earliest delay event.

(1) Identify types of delays as follows:

(a) Excusable Delay: Force-Majeure (e.g. weather) - Contractor may receive time extension, but time will not be compensable.

(b) Inexcusable Delay: Contractor Responsibility - Contractor will not receive time extension.

(c) Compensable Delay: Government Responsibility - Contractor may receive compensable time extension.

(2) If a combination of any of the delay types outlined above occurs, it is considered a Concurrent Delay, which will require an analysis of the facts to determine compensability and entitlement to any time extension under the applicable contract clauses.

d. Submit Data disks containing the narrative and native schedule files.

e. Unless the Contracting Officer requests otherwise, only add conformed contract modifications into the Project NAS.

1.6 3-WEEK LOOK AHEAD SCHEDULE

Prepare and issue a 3-Week Look Ahead schedule to provide a more detailed day-to-day plan of upcoming work identified on the Fabrication Schedule.
