1.12 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS

In accordance with the provisions of Subpart 36.201 (Evaluation of Contractor Performance) of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), construction Contractor's performance shall be evaluated throughout the performance of the contract. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) follows the procedures outlined in Engineering Regulation 415-1-17 to fulfill this FAR requirement. For construction contracts awarded at or above $650,000.00, the USACE will evaluate contractor's performance and prepare a performance report using the Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System (CCASS), which is now a web-based system. After an evaluation (interim or final) is written up by the USACE, the Contractor will have the ability to access, review and comment on the evaluation for a period of 30 days. Accessing and using CCASS typically requires specific software, called PKI certification, which is installed on the user's computer. However, although users are encouraged to use PKI certificates whenever possible, a recent temporary waiver has been approved to allow industry users to access the system without a PKI certificate. Contractors wishing to log on without a PKI certificate should select the "Contractor (pending PKI)" logon option. The certification is a Department of Defense requirement and was implemented to provide security in electronic transactions. The certification software could cost approximately $110 - $125 per certificate per year and is purchased from an External Certificate Authorities (ECA) vendor. Current information about the PKI certification

DOCUMENT 00 80 00 Page 7 process and for contacting vendors can be found on the web site:

http://www.cpars.navy.mil/. If the Contractor wishes to participate in the performance evaluation process, access to CCASS and PKI certification is the sole responsibility of the Contractor.

(a) This special contract requirement does not apply to terminations. See 52.249-5000, Basis for Settlement of Proposals, and FAR Part 49.

(b) Allowable cost for construction and marine plant and equipment in sound workable condition owned or controlled and furnished by a contractor or subcontractor at any tier shall be based on actual cost data for each piece of equipment or groups of similar serial and series for which the Government can determine both ownership and operating costs from the contractor's accounting records. When both ownership and operating costs cannot be determined for any piece of equipment or groups of similar serial or series equipment from the contractor's accounting records, costs for that equipment shall be based upon the applicable provisions of EP 1110-1-8, Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule, Region 1. Working conditions shall be considered to be average for determining equipment rates using the schedule unless specified otherwise by the contracting officer. For equipment not included in the schedule, rates for comparable pieces of equipment may be used or a rate may be developed using the formula provided in the schedule. For forward pricing, the schedule in effect at the time of negotiations shall apply. For retroactive pricing, the schedule in effect at the time the work was performed shall apply.

(c) Equipment rental costs are allowable, subject to the provisions of FAR 31.105(d)(ii) and FAR 31.205-36, Rental Costs. Rates for equipment rented from an organization under common control, lease-purchase arrangements, and sale-leaseback arrangements, will be determined using the schedule, except that actual rates will be used for equipment leased from an organization under common control that has an established practice of leasing the same or similar equipment to unaffiliated lessees.

(d) When actual equipment costs are proposed and the total amount of the pricing action exceeds the SAT, the contracting officer shall request the contractor to submit either certified cost or pricing data, or partial/limited data, as appropriate. The data shall be submitted on Standard Form 1411, Contract Pricing Proposal Cover Sheet.

SUMMARY OF WORK

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

The general description below is given to indicate the approximate scope of this project only. It does not limit the work required under the project drawings and specifications.

This work of this project involves specific repairs and reinforcement to the roof of the Barnes Building in Boston, Massachusetts. The Barnes Building is a 50,000 square foot, 10-story office building in a dense urban area exposed to coastal storms and high winds. The existing roofing system is a fully adhered Ethylene-Propylene-Diene-Monomer (EPDM) system which was damaged during Hurricane Irene and during recent storm events. Some minor repairs and patching were performed after Hurricane Irene and after recent storms. Damages include partial separation of the EPDM from insulation substrates, partial separation of the EPDM from the perimeter parapet wall, water penetration below the EPDM into insulation layers, and other damages and general age deterioration. High wind events have caused the EPDM to balloon over large areas of the roof, worsening existing deterioration, and threatening to completely separate the EPDM from substrate material, creating a potential hazard in adjacent areas.

Specific work tasks are intended to reconstruct severely deteriorated areas and to secure the remaining existing EPDM and substrate materials in place. These tasks include inspecting the existing roof for any breaks and holes in the membrane and patching them, full depth roof repair (new insulation and EPDM) in limited areas, reattachment of the EPDM to the perimeter parapet wall, caulking, and installing a sandbag ballast and wrap and tie system at selected locations on the roof. Walk mats are also required in select areas.

The work is required to be constructed by the Contractor with limited interior access to the building, i.e., the Contractor will have access to the freight elevator and loading dock areas only. The freight elevator shall be used only for the movement of personnel and tools and equipment.

The freight elevator does not reach roof level, and personnel and materials needing to reach the roof will need to climb one flight of narrow stairs after exiting the freight elevator at its highest level. In addition, the Contractor will not be permitted to attach scaffolding or lift systems to the exterior cladding of the building, the roof parapet wall, or other exterior building elements. Storage and staging is available for the Contractor adjacent to the work site.

1.2 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;

submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. The following shall be submitted in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:

Record the horizontal and vertical location of all buried utilities that differ from the contract drawings.

These drawings shall be available for review by the Contracting Officer at all times. Upon completion of the work, submit the original marked set of prints to the Contracting Officer for approval. Requests for partial payments will not be approved if the marked prints are not current, and request for final payment will not be approved until the marked prints are submitted to and approved by the Contracting Officer.

1.7.1 Preparation of Record Drawings

The entries shall be made in the jobsite set of prints at the time field changes are made, pertinent information collected, or need for corrections established, as a continuing process during the life of the contract. As revised drawings are issued by the Contracting Officer, revised prints shall be introduced into the set to replace the superseded drawings and all applicable notations previously made on the superseded drawings transferred to the current prints. Carefully prepared sketches, not less than 8-1/2" x 11", may be used to depict changes or added information in lieu of notations on the actual prints. Staple sketches to the prints affected by the change. All plan views, sections, elevations, profiles, diagrams, details, or schedules affected by a change shall be marked up as required to reflect the change. All notations or changes made on the prints shall be in sufficient detail to clearly depict the change. Colored pens or pencils shall be used to make notations on the record prints as follows:

Red pen or pencil shall be employed to indicate added or corrected work or information.

Green pen or pencil shall be used to show the deleted or incorrectly depicted work or information.

Blue or black pen or pencil shall be used to show information not to be recorded on the drawings but included on the marked-up prints for explanatory or clarification purposes for the benefit of the Contracting Officer.
