PART 3
3.1 RECOVERY SCHEDULE
A. Should the Contractor's Construction Schedule indicate that the progress of the work
is behind schedule to the extent that any of the mandatory specific or milestone dates
or completion dates are in jeopardy the Contractor shall be required to, at no extra
cost to the Owner, prepare and submit to the Owner's Representatives a
supplementary Recovery Schedule, in a form and detail appropriate to the need and
explain and display how he intends to reschedule those activities to regain
Huckabee

Construction Progress Documentation
compliance with the Construction Schedule during the immediate subsequent pay
period.
3.2 SCHEDULE REVISIONS
A. Should the Contractor, after approval of the initial Construction Schedule, desire to
change his plan in construction, he shall submit his required revisions to the Owner's
Representatives along with a written statement of the revisions including a description
of the logic for rescheduling the work, methods of maintaining adherence to
intermediate Milestones and Specific Dates and the reasons for the revisions. The
Contractor shall revise his schedule to include the effect of changes, acts of God, and
other conditions or events, which have affected the Schedule. If the requested
changes are acceptable to the Owner and Owner's Representatives, the changes will
be incorporated into the Construction Schedule in the next reporting period.
B. When the Owner orders changes by change Order which have the potential to impact
the Contract Milestones or Specific Dates stipulated in the Supplemental Conditions,
a Schedule will be prepared by the Contractor and provided to the Owner's
Representatives for concurrence or revision. After the proposed schedule revision
has been mutually agreed upon, it will be incorporated into the Construction
Schedule. Change Order logic will affect only those activities and performance data
directly concerned. Adjustments in Scheduled intermediate Completion Dates or for
the Contract as a whole will be considered only to the extent that there is insufficient
remaining float to absorb these changes.
C. Any change to the approved Construction Schedule must be approved, in writing, by
the Owner and Contractor,
0, Neither the updating or revision of Contractor's Construction Schedule nor the
submission, updating, change or revision of any report or schedule submitted to
Owner's Representatives by Contractor under this Section nor Owner's review or nonobjection of any such report or schedule shall have the effect of amending or
modifying, in any way, the Contract Time, any Contract Completion Date, or Contract
Milestone Dates or of modifying or limiting in any way Contractor's obligations under
this Contract.
3.3 REQUESTED TIME ADJUSTMENT SCHEDULE
A. The updated Construction Schedule submitted by Contractor shall not show a
completion date later then the Contract Time, subject to any time extensions
approved by Owner:
Provided, however, that if Contractor believes he is entitled to an extension of the
Contract Time under the Contract Documents, Contractor shall submit to Owner's
Representatives, with each progress payment update, a separate schedule analysis
(entitled "Requested Time Adjustment Schedule") indicating suggested adjustments
in the Contract Time which should, in the opinion of Contractor, be made in
accordance with the Contract Documents by time extension, due to changes, delays
or conditions occurring during the past month or previously, or which are expected or
contemplated by Contractor (whether such conditions are excusable under the
Contract or are alleged to be due to Contractor or Owner fault); this separate
schedule, if submitted, shall be time-scaled utilizing a computer generated and
computer-drawn Schedule analysis schedule, unless otherwise approved by the
Owner's Representative and shall be accompanied or preceded by a formal time
extension request as required by the Contract and a detailed narrative justifying the
time extension requested.
B. The time extension request shall include schedule forecasts that predict the actual
Project Completion Date, and any separable portions thereof specified by Owner plus
a forecast of the actual achievement of any milestones listed in the Owner-Contractor
Agreement.
C. To the extent any time extension requests are ending at the time of any update in the
Construction Schedule, the "Requested Time Adjustment Schedule" shall also be
updated each month, to reflect any adjustments made by Contractor in the logic,
sequence or duration of any activities in the Construction Schedule, or any time
extensions previously granted by Owner, and to reflect actual or expected progress,
in order that the "Requested Time Adjustment Schedule" shall clearly and accurately
Huckabee
01 3200-5 Construction Progress Documentation
reflect Contractor's Actual intention and proposed time adjustments as of the latest
update.
D. Neither the Owner, the Project Manager or the Architect shall have any obligation to
consider any time extension request unless the requirements of the Contract
Documents, and specifically, but not limited to these requirements, are complied with;
and Owner shall not be responsible or liable to Contractor for any constructive
acceleration due to failure of Owner to grant time extensions under the Contract
Documents should Contractor fail to substantially comply with the submission
requirements and the justification requirements of this Contract for time extension
requested. Contractor's failure to perform in accordance with the Construction
Schedule shall not be excused, nor be chargeable to Owner, because Contractor has
submitted time extension requests or the "Requested Time Adjustment Schedule".
3.04 CONTRACTOR'S DAILY FIELD REPORT
A. Daily reports shall be used to record a chronological, day-to-day account of the work
force, the respective activities performed, the weather conditions, and any specific
events that take place on the Project.
B. The Daily Report shall not be used as a communication tool. Any situations requiring
specific action shall be brought to the attention of the appropriate party by means of
written correspondence, memoranda, or meeting minutes.
C. Photographs shall be used with the Daily Report to clarify or confirm statements and
concerns.
D. The Contractor shall produce a Daily Report including the following information:

written "R.FI." (Request for Information), and the architect shall respond to such
R.F.l.s in a reasonable and timely manner. If additional funds are required, they shall
be stated in the R.F.l. or it will be assumed that no additional costs will be incurred
due to the inquiry. Any R.F.I. response which creates an increase of cost must be
submitted within 21 days or R.FI. is considered closed and no additional funds will be
considered. No extension of contract time will be allowed for delays in receiving a
response to the R.F.I.
