Common use of Schedule Maintenance and Required Updating Clause in Contracts

Schedule Maintenance and Required Updating. During the time of the contract, the Contractor is required to maintain an "as-built" schedule updated and revised monthly reflecting the actual progression of the work, showing actual dates of activities started and completed, the percent of work completed to date on each activity started but not yet completed, the current allocation of staff resources and major equipment and the status of critical materials showing actual progression of the work vs. the approved schedule. The schedule of actual progression shall be available to the Engineer at all times. The Contractor shall also provide updated activity number sorts, total float early start sorts, a 60 day look-ahead bar chart, and a narrative report. The narrative report shall include a description of problem areas, current and anticipated delaying factors and their estimated impact on performance of other activities and mandated contract dates, and the explanation of corrective action taken or proposed. Failure to submit an “as-built” schedule and monthly schedule updates, or updates as requested by the Engineer, shall constitute non-compliance in accordance with the provisions of the contract. The Engineer will conduct periodic reviews of the updated schedule at progress or other meetings. This review, which may address slippage, remedies, revisions, and other relevant issues, may result in the need for submission of revised schedules. The Contractor’s appropriate field and scheduling personnel must attend this review. If, in the opinion of the Engineer, the specified work falls behind that schedule, the Contractor shall take such actions as necessary to improve its progress. If the Contractor is behind schedule any month, the Contractor shall indicate what measures it will take in the next thirty
