- Task 1: Project Management
The Project Architect Consultant shall establish a project management system to provide adequate scope, schedule, and budget control and be responsive to input from the BOE. Status and project meetings with all participating BOE staff shall be conducted on a regular basis. The purpose of these meetings shall be to report to the BOE on project status issues such as work in progress, work completed, and delivery schedule.
Discussions on the various technical issues and strategies associated with all phases of a project shall take place during these meetings. In addition, meetings shall be held with the BOE and other agencies to coordinate multi-jurisdictional components of a project. Meeting minutes documenting the decisions made and action items shall be prepared by the Project Architect Consultant and submitted to the attending parties.
Task 1.1 - Project Meetings
The Project Architect Consultant shall arrange for a kick-off meeting through the BOE project manager or designee. This meeting shall serve to clarify the lines of communication and other administrative details. The Project Architect Consultant shall then meet with the BOE staff and participating agencies on an agreed basis (as needed) to report project progress.
Task 1.2 - Project Schedule
The Project Architect Consultant shall provide a project schedule identifying project meetings, project deliverables, and major milestones required by the BOE. The schedule shall be updated on a monthly basis.
Task 1.3 - Project Status Reports.
The Project Architect Consultant shall provide a monthly project progress report as requested that contains the following information for all projects currently under design and construction.
Deliverables:
Monthly Status Meetings
Monthly Schedule Updates
Progress Reports and Meeting Minutes
Task 2: Design Reports
Many projects shall require a design concept report (DCR), which typically includes Conceptual (30%) Plans. If required by the BOE, the DCR shall identify the purpose of the project, present the methodology used to define the proposed solution, summarize alternatives if applicable, provide an overview of specific issues and recommended solution(s), describe the improvements to be made, present conceptual plans delineating the limits of improvements and type(s) of work to be done, and provide a preliminary project cost estimate.
When required by the BOE, the Project Architect Consultant shall be responsible for performing a topographic survey of the area including all existing features and utilities, and preparing mapping and base sheets to accurately show the existing conditions.
The DCR shall also identify and detail what coordination will be needed with existing infrastructure and stakeholders, in particular utility relocations, traffic control and businesses. These items shall also be included in the preliminary cost estimates for each project.
Deliverables:
Surveying, Mapping and Field Investigations
Design Concept Report (DCR), including Conceptual Plans and Estimate
Task 3: Detailed Design and Construction Documents
Based on approval of the DCR by the District, the Project Architect Consultant shall prepare detailed design and construction documents for review. Each review of these documents shall include plans (drawn in AutoCAD to District standards), cost estimate, and technical specifications.
Task 3.1- Detailed Design Engineering
Provide complete consulting engineering and design services for architecture.
Task 3.2 - Design Review Submittals
Develop detailed plans, specifications and project cost estimates and submit to the BOE for review and approval at the following completion stages. The BOE will determine the level of staff review that is required prior to beginning the defined scope of work.
The following is a typical review process for BOE projects:
Schematic Design
Design Development
50% Construction Documents
90% Construction Documents
Final Construction Documents
The Project Architect Consultant shall incorporate the BOE's review comments into the subsequent submittal. The Project Architect Consultant shall prepare a tabulation of the review comments and the proposed resolution for each comment. The Project Architect Consultant must provide a brief explanation for each comment that it proposes to not incorporate, otherwise, the District expects all comments to be addressed.
Task 3.3 - Cost Estimates
The Project Architect Consultant shall prepare detailed construction cost estimates for each submittal. Cost estimates shall reflect current market conditions and project timeframes.
Task 3.4 - Comment Resolution Meetings
The Project Architect Consultant shall participate in review meetings with BOE staff, tabulate and address comments, and submit a written comment resolution summary at each plan review stage. Responsiveness and communication relative to review comments are key components when evaluating the Project Architect Consultant's performance. The District recognizes that previous comments may be superseded as design progresses and that some review comments require additional discussion and engineering judgment prior to final resolution. Comment resolution meetings should be scheduled in order to facilitate this discussion and resolution. The BOE's expectation is that responses be documented for all review comments and that the Consultant should never independently delete or ignore review comments.
Task 3.5 - Utility Coordination
The Project Architect Consultant shall assist with utility coordination and agency approvals by performing such tasks as preparing applications and supporting materials in order to secure permits and approvals for the project as well as holding utility coordination meetings.
The District will provide general coordination by requesting mapping, distributing progress plan submittals to utility companies and other agencies, and related tasks. The Project Architect Consultant shall be responsible for incorporating existing utility information into the drawings and preparing its design with due consideration given to existing utilities and infrastructure.
Task 3.6 - Public Meetings
When requested by the BOE, the Project Architect Consultant shall assist with stakeholders and public meetings. The BOE staff will handle the day-to-day tasks associated with public outreach and communication with the public and stakeholders. The Project Architect Consultant shall be primarily responsible for preparing supporting documentation, such as exhibit boards, and attending public meetings to assist with answering questions.
Task 3.7 - Final Bid Documents
The Project Architect Consultant shall furnish the BOE with one (1) full-sized set of plans, specifications and a cost estimate at each review stage, including final specifications and documents for the bid release. Final drawings and specifications shall be issued in electronic format for bid solicitation to be posted on BOE and DAS websites.
Task 3.8 - Final Design Reports
The detailed design development will likely generate some minor revisions and updates to the design report prepared at the 30% submittal stage. The Consultant shall incorporate such updates and submit a final report to the BOE for review.
Task 4: Bidding Assistance
If requested by the BOE, the Project Architect Consultant shall provide bidding assistance services, such as:
Attend pre-bid meeting(s) for the project to discuss the bid documents, field conditions, and answer technical questions. Prepare pre-bid meeting minutes for review and distribution.
Issue responses to requests for information (RFI) from prospective contractors and suppliers, by preparing a summary of questions and answers via written addenda.
Prepare addenda for review and approval by the BOE. The District will post all addenda to Purchasing and DAS websites.
Deliverables:

Responds to Questions from Bidders
Furnish Addenda to the Bid Documents
Task 5: Construction Phase Services
Construction phase services will be required at the BOE's discretion. The BOE may elect to self-perform construction administration and inspection on projects, or may request the Project Architect Consultant provide these services. Regardless of the level of service ultimately needed for construction services, successful experience in this area is desirable. The construction administration scope will be determined prior to completion of the design and a contract amendment issued as needed, to avoid delaying the project.
The following is an outline of basic services that may be requested by the BOE:
Project administration assistance.
Participate in the pre-construction meeting and/or progress meetings.
Review shop drawings, submittals, and respond to the awarded contractor's requests for information (RFI).
Review project reports created by the BOE/District Inspector or submitted by the Contractor.
