Section 01000 - Page 1

SECTION 01000 - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

WHERE THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS DIFFER FROM REQUIREMENTS ESTABLISHED BY A SPECIFIC

TASK ORDER, THE TASK ORDER REQUIREMENTS SHALL GOVERN.

1.01 SCOPE

a. The Contractor will be held responsible for all requirements described in the contract documents and task order documents and all work including that of his Sub-contractor, if any, shall be done in accordance with the contract documents and/or task order documents. Failure to familiarize himself with their requirements will not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility to comply.

c. The organization of the specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, and the arrangement of the drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the work among Sub-contractors or in establishing the extent of the work to be performed by any trade.

1.02 WORK SCHEDULING

a. Normal base work hours for the Contractor will be between the hours of 7:00 AM, through 5:00 PM excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal Holidays. If the Contractor desires to work during periods other than above, he must notify the Contracting Officer three (3) working days in advance of his intention to work during other periods to allow assignment of additional inspection forces and for notification of fire, security and safety. When the Contracting Officer determines that they are reasonably available, he may authorize the Contractor to perform work during periods other than normal duty hours/days. However, if inspectors are required to perform in excess of their normal duty hours/days solely for the benefit of the Contractor, the actual cost of the inspection, at overtime rates, will be charged to the Contractor and will be deducted from the final payment of the Contract amount. (Note: If applicable, at time of award this paragraph will be modified to the negotiated schedule for this project).

b. The following Federal legal Holidays are observed by this Base:

New Year's Day 1 January Martin Luther's King's Birthday Third Monday of January President's Day Third Monday of February Memorial Day Last Monday of May Independence Day 4 July Labor Day First Monday in September Columbus Day Second Monday in October Veteran's Day 11 November Thanksgiving Day Fourth Thursday in November Christmas Day 25 December

c. NOTE: Any of the above holidays falling on a Saturday will be observed the preceding Friday, holidays falling on a Sunday will be observed on the following Monday.

d. Prior to commencing work on the job initially, resumption of work after prolonged interruption (7 calendar days or more) commencement of any warranty work, and upon completion of warranty work, the Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer (or his/her Contracting Officer Representative). When relocating to new sites, returning to sites for follow-up work on a phased work plan, notification to the Contracting Officer’s Representative is sufficient.

Notification should be by personal contact; however, advance notification may be by telephone, or in writing, and should be accomplished sufficiently in advance to allow scheduling of inspection forces. The above precautions are to ensure construction inspection and recording of work proceedings.

e. The organization of the specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, and the arrangement of the drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the work among Sub-contractors or in establishing the extent of the work to be performed by any trade.

1.03 ENTRY TO BASE/ACCESS TO SITE

a. Locations to be serviced by the resulting contracts include pots and bases that are “closed” to the public, Ohio Army National Guard Regional Training Institute Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) - Columbus, Ohio Contract Number: W91364-09B-0004
