GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 GENERAL

This section comprises an explanation of the general contract requirements needed to accomplish the work in accordance with the contract specifications and drawings. Any engineering designs required by these specifications that require certification, or a stamp, from a Professional Engineer must be performed by a third party vendor.

1.2 SITE WORKING HOURS

1.2.1 Government Project Personnel Working Hours

The scheduled working hours of the Project staff are Mondays through Thursdays from 6:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays are non-work days. All Project support required by the Contractor shall be scheduled during the Project staff working hours.

1.2.2 Contractor's Working Hours

The Contractor's normal working hours shall be between 6:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday. Working hours which extend past 5:00 p.m.

weekdays, on Fridays, on weekends, and Federal Holidays or which are proposed to be different from the normal duty hours listed above, shall be coordinated and approved by the Contracting Officer 14 days in advance.

1.3 Power House Crane

The Government will allow the Contractor to use the power house crane to move equipment, materials, and tools between the floor levels as needed.

The Government will operate the crane for the Contractor and assist with rigging. Items being lifted shall contain factory tested and approved lift points, defined centers of gravity, and necessary lift weights.

Crane use shall be coordinated with the Government at least 48 hours hours in advance of need. The Contractor shall ensure efficient use of the crane and adjust work sequence as needed should the crane be temporarily unavailable. The Contractor will be responsible for preparing lift plans, activity hazard analysis documents, and any other safety related items necessary for execution of lifts.

1.4 COORDINATION CONFERENCES

Routine coordination conferences will be scheduled by the Contracting Officer throughout the life of this contract. Coordination conferences will be held to discuss contract administration, Contractor quality control, phasing, scheduling, and other aspects relating to the required work. The Corps of Engineers and the Contractor will be represented at each of these meetings. Coordination conferences will be scheduled to occur when notified by the Contracting Officer.

SECTION 01 00 00 Page 3

1.5 PARTNERING

In order to most effectively accomplish the work, the Government urges the Contractor to join the Government in establishing a cohesive and professional project management team. Through this "partnering" relationship both entities would strive to draw on the strengths of each organization for the ultimate goal of assuring that the project’s intended results are achieved, within budget and on schedule. This endeavor seeks an environment that nurtures team building, cooperation and trust between the Government and the Contractor. The partnering relationship would be bilateral in make-up, and participation will be totally voluntary.

The first step in initiating the concept would be a joint project management team "partnering" conference attended by multiple officers from each organization representing management and the key jobsite staff of each entity. The initial conference would be held within the first thirty

(30) days following contract award. The Resident Engineer would chair the conference, establish its agenda and distribute minutes of the meeting. A professional facilitator acceptable to both parties would lead the participants of the session, through the steps of team building and the formation of a problem solving mechanism within the group. The conference duration would be no more than one day. Location of the conference would be offsite within a 60 mile radius of the jobsite at a facility which offers conference rooms and food service. All costs in connection with rented facilities and the facilitator would be shared equally by the Government and the Contractor. Each organization would pay other costs of its respective employees attending the conference.

Additional partnering sessions would be held no less than biannually.

Implementation of the partnering concept and philosophy would be an on-going process.
