Critical Path The critical path items are highlighted in the schedule above and consist of the Permit and Utility Clearance processes. To mitigate project schedule risk, we have made the following key improvement to the the tentative schedule milestones provided in RFP Addendum #1: • Design Complete milestone has been shifted from April 2021 to match the Right-of-Way Certification milestone in December 2021. Attachment C of the RFP includes the completed Right- of-Way acquisition documentation, removing the risk from the right-of-way process. This shift in Design Complete extends the utility and permit process durations from 6.5 months to 10.5 months, which will decrease the risk of external agencies delaying the project production. Initial Engineering Phase During Initial Engineering phase, we continue to gather data, such as survey, utility locates, and substrata conditions, to establish the design criteria and concept. The Typical Section package will be prepared and submitted to the City and FDOT for approval in advance of the BDR/30% Plans submittal. In preparing this proposal the H&H team has already performed preliminary calculations and developed design concepts. This proposal pre-work allows us to complete the Initial Engineering Phase within 3 months of NTP. One month of City and FDOT review time is included in submittal. Final Engineering Phase During Final Engineering phase, we will develop the plans, specifications, and estimates for letting, while clearing key processes such as permits and utilities. Since the permit package submittals typical require 60% plan completion, we propose to complete the Constructability/60% submittal within 5 months to further increase the permit process duration and mitigate schedule risk. Our Biddability/90% submittal will mark the completion of the design in the FDOT process. We have allotted 8 months for to prepare this submittal to maximize design documentation and finalization of contract documents. Construction Phase The South Florida “season” where local populations and traffic increase significantly extends approximately from October to April. The Bridge Park superstructure concept is modular in nature and allows for flexibility in construction. This means that the contractor will be able to phase construction to minimize disruption. Our contract documents will limit construction activities with traffic disruption to months outside of the “season”. D-35
