Actual delays that are found to be caused by the Contractor's own actions,
which result in the extension of the schedule, will not be a cause for a
time extension to the contract completion date.
3.7.2
Submission Requirements
The Contractor shall submit a justification for each request for a change
in the contract completion date of under 2 weeks based upon the most recent
schedule update at the time of the NTP or constructive direction issued for
the change. Such a request shall be in accordance with the requirements of
other appropriate Contract Clauses and shall include, as a minimum:
a.
A list of affected activities, with their associated project
schedule activity number.
b.
A brief explanation of the causes of the change.
c.
An analysis of the overall impact of the changes proposed.
d.
A sub-network of the affected area.
Activities impacted in each justification for change shall be identified by
a unique activity code contained in the required data file.
3.7.3
Additional Submission Requirements
For any requested time extension of over 2 weeks, the Contracting Officer
may request an interim update with revised activities for a specific change
request. The Contractor shall provide this disk within 4 days of the
Contracting Officer's request.
3.8
DIRECTED CHANGES
If the NTP is issued for changes prior to settlement of price and/or time,
the Contractor shall submit proposed schedule revisions to the Contracting
Officer within 2 weeks of the NTP being issued. The proposed revisions to
the schedule will be approved by the Contracting Officer prior to inclusion
of those changes within the project schedule. If the Contractor fails to
submit the proposed revisions, the Contracting Officer may furnish the
Contractor with suggested revisions to the project schedule. The
Contractor shall include these revisions in the project schedule until
revisions are submitted, and final changes and impacts have been
negotiated. If the Contractor has any objections to the revisions
furnished by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall advise the
Contracting Officer within 2 weeks of receipt of the revisions. Regardless
of the objections, the Contractor shall continue to update the schedule
with the Contracting Officer's revisions until a mutual agreement in the
revisions is reached. If the Contractor fails to submit alternative
revisions within 2 weeks of receipt of the Contracting Officer's proposed
revisions, the Contractor will be deemed to have concurred with the
Contracting Officer's proposed revisions. The proposed revisions will then
be the basis for an equitable adjustment for performance of the work.
3.9
OWNERSHIP OF FLOAT
Float available in the schedule, at any time, shall not be considered for
the exclusive use of either the Government or the Contractor.
