This document outlines cost estimation procedures for contracts related to heavy construction projects, specifically localized to Columbus, Mississippi. The central requirements include using RSMeansTM Heavy Construction Cost Data and the RSMeansTM Online Construction Cost Estimator for all cost estimates, ensuring that all line items reflect localized pricing. Proposals must contain both hard and electronic copies of estimates, detailing assembly line items rather than individual costs when applicable. Cost calculations exclude overhead and profits until the final price stage, which includes a specific tax calculation. Non-Prepriced Items (NPIs) can be used when RSMeansTM data does not provide pricing, requiring quotes from independent third parties. The document also describes how coefficients factor into the pricing, covering contractor expenses while explicitly stating costs that are not included. Lastly, four separate coefficients are outlined for standard and non-standard working hours at two locations, ensuring clarity in billing and compensation throughout the contract's duration. This structured approach aims to ensure fair pricing, accountability, and transparency in government procurement processes.

The contract encompasses various site work activities such as the repair and construction of asphalt and concrete pavements, installation of utilities, drainage structures, and turfing. Work will be executed through incremental task orders as funding becomes available, with each order negotiated separately for quantities, not price. Key sections address general requirements, environmental considerations, excavation and trenching, earthwork, and subbase construction, detailing processes, materials, compaction standards, and compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. Safety measures, utility service availability, and site conditions are emphasized, highlighting contractor responsibilities for environmental protection and cleanup. The document serves as a critical guide for contractors bidding on the project, ensuring adherence to Air Force regulations and standards during the construction and maintenance of essential infrastructure at the airbase.
