Many routine maintenance items are contracted to the private sector. Mowing, refuse collection, park attendant services, and facility cleanup are just a few of the activities that are performed by private contractors for the Corps of Engineers at Saylorville Lake Project. Award will be a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), performance-based service contract.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK.

1.5 POST-AWARD (“PRE-WORK”) CONFERENCE. After award, but prior to start of services, the Project Office will arrange a Post-Award/Pre-Work conference to be held at the Project.

The Government reserves the right to schedule meetings with the Contractor. Meetings shall be scheduled to take place at the Project Office as necessary to ensure strict compliance with the terms of the contract, to coordinate work schedules in compliance with the contract specifications, and to arrange a satisfactory operating agreement.

In the absence of a designated supervisor and/or foreman, or if the designated supervisor and/or foreman is not available, the Contractor warrants that the driver(s) are qualified and fully competent with full authority to act for, and on behalf of, the Contractor, to insure the required work is performed in strict accordance with the contract specifications.

The supervisor and/or foreman shall have the authority to correct non-performance. The Contracting Officer may disapprove any individual whom he considers to be incompetent to perform the work required. Such disapproval will be given to the Contractor by written notice, and the Contracting Officer’s decision shall represent a final decision.

1.10.3 The Contractor shall furnish to the Project office, a telephone number attended during normal business hours of 7:30 a.m. through 4:00 p.m. CST to which calls concerning performance or other contractual matters can be placed.
