05/20/2019_CLC version © OTIS ELEVATOR COMPANY, 2015 All Rights Reserved Page 8 of 16 SECTION VII. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS CONFINED SPACE This proposal does not include working in a Permit Required Confined Space. The machine room, hoistway, pit, and mezzanine (“Elevator Spaces”) may be considered Permit- Required Confined Spaces as defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Organization (“OSHA”), 29 C.F.R. § 1910.146(b) and § 1926 Subpart AA. Otis has a documented process to control or eliminate hazards and classify such Elevator Spaces as non-permit required confined spaces. In the event that the customer/general contractor or unique site conditions or hazards (such as chemical manufacturing sites) require Otis to handle such Elevator Spaces as Permit-Required Confined Spaces, the customer/general contractor will be responsible for supplying, at its expense, all resources, including monitoring, permitting, attendants, and rescue planning associated with handling such Elevator Spaces as Permit-Required Confined Spaces. The customer/general contractor is required to inform Otis of all known or potential hazards related to Elevator Spaces that Otis may be required to access prior to Otis performing any work in such spaces. Further, the customer/general contractor is required to communicate any changes in the conditions associated with such Elevator Spaces or activities in or around such spaces that could introduce a hazard into such spaces. Otis will be compensated on a time and material basis for the inefficiencies of working in permit required Confined Spaces. WIRING All wiring and electrical interconnections shall comply with governing codes. Insulated wiring shall have flame retardant and moisture-proof outer covering and shall be run in conduit, tubing or electrical wire ways. Traveling cables shall be flexible and suitably suspended to relieve strain on individual conductors. ENGINEERING DESIGN All new material furnished shall be specifically designed to operate with the original equipment being retained, thus assuring maximum performance and eliminating any divided responsibility. SUPERSEDED MATERIAL All material, removed or unused, not required in the modification will become the property of Otis Elevator Company and we reserve the right to remove and retain it. PERMITS AND INSPECTIONS The elevator contractor shall furnish all licenses and permits and shall arrange for and make all required inspections and tests. CODE The elevator equipment shall be furnished and installed in accordance with the applicable version of the ASME/ANSI A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators, An American National Standard, including the latest Supplement, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. RE-MOBILIZATION You agree to pursue and schedule the work by other trades in a timely manner so as to not interrupt our work. Should our crew(s) have to pull off the job waiting on work by others not in our contract, we shall be entitled to a re- mobilization charge of Three Thousand ($3,000) Dollars. We shall also extend the stated durations to the extent that we are delayed. ARBITRATION Subcontractor agrees to submit to Non-Binding Arbitration by the American Arbitration Association but does not waive its rights to pursue other remedies available at law and equity. SCHEDULE Due to current market conditions the availability of elevator installation labor is limited. If this proposal is not accepted within 30 days, prior to acceptance of any award Otis reserves the unilateral right to decline the award based on a review of the project schedule and our labor availability/commitments. This proposal is bid with the understanding that materials will be ordered with sufficient lead time (as outlined in our approvals package) to allow delivery prior to December 31st, 2019. If Otis is unable to order materials in a timely manner due to delays on behalf of the owner and/or general contractor, or if delivery is requested after this date, the owner and/or general contractor will be responsible for all cost increases incurred by Otis. An extra charge will be assessed for any double handling or re-transportation of elevator material required by the general contractor/owner or agent thereof.
