Common use of Technical Requirements for the Schedule Clause in Contracts

Technical Requirements for the Schedule. The schedule of operations must be prepared in the critical path format utilizing activity nodes with identification numbers, arrows and pertinent symbols to fully describe the activities and their duration, the progress of the work and the order in which the Contractor proposes to carry on the work, the date on which it will start the major items of work (including but not limited to excavation, drainage, paving, structures, mobilization, soil erosion and sediment control, etc.), the critical features (including procurement of materials, plant and equipment) and the contemplated dates for completion of the same. No activity duration shall be longer than 15 work days. The NYSTA requires that the progress schedule, at a minimum, include the following items: (a) activities required for the performance of all items of work, including sequence and interdependence; (b) seasonal weather limitations; (c) time and money curve, and (d) all phase duration or milestone events, holidays and shutdown periods shall be shown as applicable. The scheduled activities are to be described so that the work is easily identifiable and the progress of each activity can be measured. For each activity, the Contractor shall identify the trade or entity performing the work, the duration of the activity in days worked, the resources involved by trade, the equipment involved, the location of the work and the total dollar value. The Contractor shall also provide the works days per week, holidays, number of shifts per day, number of hours per shift, and major equipment to be used for each activity. If requested by the Engineer, the Contractor shall furnish production rates or other information needed to verify the reasonableness of the activity duration. Allowance for time lost to seasonal weather conditions such as precipitation and temperature, shall be included in the planning and scheduling of all activities.
