1.10 NAVIGATION AIDS

There may be aids to navigation within the project boundaries. Some, or all, of such aids to navigation may need to be removed for the accomplishment of the contract work. Before the commencement of dredging, it is the responsibility of the Contractor to provide the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) and any other responsible parties notification 5 weeks prior to needing a navigation aid moved. The USCG may need to bring vessels from out of state to move larger aids to navigation and the Contractor should request this service as soon as practicable, but in all cases, at least 5 weeks from the start of dredging. Any impacts to the work due to the inability of the Contractor to accomplish any needed movement of aids to navigation will not be the responsibility of the United States Government or of the Contracting Officer. Failure to notify the Coast Guard within the required timeframe may result in project delays.

The Contractor shall not remove, change the location of, obstruct, willfully damage, make fast to, or interfere with aids to navigation without express direction from the USCG. If the USCG determines they cannot respond to the Contractor's request, the USCG may request the Contractor to relocate the navigation aid(s) for dredging. The Contractor shall only relocate the navigation aid(s) and/or place the navigation aid(s) back to its charted position under the direct supervision of the

1.22 CONTRACTOR-PREPARED NETWORK ANALYSIS SYSTEM

(APR 1968)

The progress chart to be prepared by the Contractor pursuant to the Contract Clause entitled "SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS" shall consist of a network analysis system as described below. In preparing this system the scheduling of construction is the responsibility of the Contractor. The requirement for the system is included to assure adequate planning and execution of the work and to assist the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative in appraising the reasonableness of the proposed schedule and evaluating progress of the work.

(a) An example of one of the numerous acceptable types of network and analysis systems is shown in Appendix A of the Corps of Engineers Regulation ER 1-1-11 , single copies of which are available to bona fide bidders on request. Other systems which are designed to serve the same purpose and employ the same basic principles as are illustrated in Appendix A will be accepted subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative.

(b) The system shall consist of diagrams and accompanying mathematical analyses. The diagrams shall show elements of the project in detail and the entire project in summary.

(1) Diagrams shall show the order and interdependence of activities and the sequence in which the work is to be accomplished as planned by the Contractor. The basic concept of a network analysis diagram will be followed to show how the start of a given activity is dependent on the completion of preceding activities and its completion restricts the start of following activities.

(2) Detailed network activities shown on a detailed or sub-network diagram shall include, in addition to construction activities, the submittal and approval of samples of materials and shop drawings, the procurement of critical materials and equipment, fabrication of special material and equipment and their installation and testing. All activities of the Government that affect progress, and contract required dates for completion of all or parts of the work will be shown. The detail of information shall be such that duration times of activities will range from three (3) to thirty (30) days with not over two percent (2%) of the activities exceeding these limits. The activities which comprise the following separate buildings and features shall be separately identifiable by coding or use of sub-networks or both:

Building or feature Minimum number of activities

The selection and number of activities shall be subject to the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative's approval. Detailed networks, when summary networks are also furnished, need not be time scaled but shall be drafted to show a continuous flow from left to right with no arrows from right to left. The following information shall be shown on the diagrams for each activity: preceding and following event numbers, description of the activity, cost, and activity duration.

SECTION 01 10 00.10 38 Page 17

(3) Summary Network. If the project is of such size that the entire network cannot be readily shown on a single sheet, a summary network diagram shall be provided. The summary network diagram shall consist of a minimum of fifty activities and a maximum of one hundred and fifty activities, and shall be based on and supported by detailed diagrams. Related activities shall be grouped on the network. The critical path shall be plotted generally along the center of the sheet with channels with increasing float placed towards the top or bottom. The summary network shall be time scaled using units of approximately one-half inch equals one week or other suitable scale approved by the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative. Weekends and holidays shall be indicated. Where slack exists, the activities shall be shown at the time when they are scheduled to be accomplished.

(4) The mathematical analysis of the network diagram shall include a tabulation of each activity shown on the detailed network diagrams. The following information will be furnished as a minimum for each activity:

(i) preceding and following event numbers (numbers shall be selected and assigned so as to permit identification of the activities with bid items);

(ii) activity description;

(iii) estimated duration of activities (the best estimate available at time of computation);

(iv) earliest start date (by calendar date);

(v) earliest finish date (by calendar date);

(vi) scheduled or actual start date (by calendar date);

(vii) scheduled or actual finish date (by calendar date);

(viii) latest start date (by calendar date);

(ix) latest finish date (by calendar date);

(x) slack or float;

(xi) monetary value of activity;

(xii) responsibility for activity (Prime Contractor, subcontractors, suppliers, Government, etc.);

(xiii) manpower required;

(xiv) percentage of activity completed;

(xv) Contractor's earnings based on portion of activity completed; and

(xvi) bid item of which activity is a part.

(5) The program or means used in making the mathematical computation shall be capable of compiling the total value of completed and partially completed activities and subtotals from separate buildings or

SECTION 01 10 00.10 38 Page 18 feature listed in paragraph (b)(2).

(6) In addition to the tabulation of activities, the computation will include the following data:

(i) identification of activities which are planned to be expedited by use of overtime or double shifts to be worked including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays;

(ii) on-site manpower loading schedule;

(iii) a description of the major items of construction equipment planned for operations of the project. (The description shall include the type, number of units and unit capacities. A schedule showing proposed time equipment will be on the job keyed to activities on which equipment will be used shall be provided); and

(iv) where portions of the work are to be paid by unit costs, the estimated number of units in an activity which was used in developing the total activity cost.

(7) The analysis shall list the activities in sorts or groups as follows:

(i) by the preceding event number from lowest to highest and then in the order of the following event number;

(ii) by the amount of slack, then in order of preceding event number;

(iii) by responsibility in order of earliest allowable start dates; and

(iv) in order of latest allowable start dates, then in order of preceding event numbers, and then in order of succeeding event numbers.

(c) Submission and approval of the system shall be as follows:

(1) A preliminary network defining the Contractor's planned operations during the first sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of Notice to Proceed will be submitted within ten (10) days. The Contractor's general approach for the balance of the project shall be indicated. Cost of activities expected to be completed or partially completed before submission and approval of the whole schedule should be included.

(2) The complete network analysis consisting of the detailed network mathematical analysis (on-site manpower loading schedule, equipment schedule) and network diagrams shall be submitted within forty

(40) calendar days after receipt of Notice to Proceed.

(d) The Contractor shall participate in a review and evaluation of the proposed network diagrams and analysis by the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative. Any revisions necessary as a result of this review shall be resubmitted for approval of the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative within ten (10) calendar days after the conference. The approved schedule shall then be the schedule to be used by the Contractor for planning, organizing and directing the work and

SECTION 01 10 00.10 38 Page 19 for reporting progress. If the Contractor thereafter desires to make changes in his method of operating and scheduling he shall notify the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative in writing stating the reasons for the change. If the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative considers these changes to be of a major nature he may require the Contractor to revise and submit for approval, without additional cost to the Government, all or the affected portion of the detailed diagrams and mathematical analysis and the summary diagram to show the effect on the entire project. A change may be considered of a major nature if the time estimated to be required or actually used for an activity or the logic of sequence of activities is varied from the original plan to a degree that there is a reasonable doubt as to the effect on the contract completion date or dates. Changes which affect activities with adequate slack time shall be considered as minor changes, except that an accumulation of minor changes may be considered a major change when their cumulative effect might affect the contract completion date.

(e) The Contractor shall submit at intervals of fifteen (15) calendar days a report of the actual construction progress by updating the mathematical analyses. Revisions causing changes in the detailed network shall be noted on the summary network, or a revised issue of affected portions of the detailed network furnished. The summary network shall be revised as necessary for the sake of clarity. However, only the initial submission or completed revisions need be time scaled. Subsequent minor revisions need not be time scaled.

(f) The report shall show the activities or portions of activities completed during the reporting period and their total value as basis for the Contractor's periodic request for payment. Payment made pursuant to the Contract Clause entitled "PAYMENTS UNDER FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS" will be based on the total value of such activities completed or partially completed after verification by the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative.
