REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS NO. 20-07-01 <br />CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TAB D: PROJECT APPROACH AND UNDERSTANDING <br /> <br />A system for tracking complaints, questions, and comments will ensure that they are directed to the <br />proper entity and satisfactorily addressed in a timely manner. We have found that public inclusion in <br />projects at the beginning avoids animosity at the project completion. The residents and businesses <br />of the affected neighborhoods should receive as much advance information as possible as to the <br />benefits of the improvements, and what will take place during construction in their neighborhood, as <br />they will be directly affected. <br />Design & Permitting Phase <br />Craven Thompson will incorporate data gained through agency comment into 30% design plans and <br />calculations. These plans and calculations will be provided for City review. Craven Thompson will <br />also perform a 30% internal review process. <br />City comments will then be incorporated into the plans, which <br />will be further developed into 60% documents. Craven <br />Thompson will process these plans and calculations through <br />an internal review process as well as through City review. The <br />typical Craven Thompson internal reviews take place at 30%, <br />60%, 90%, and 100% complete documents. <br />After incorporation of the City’s 30% comments, Craven <br />Thompson will proceed to completion of 60% design <br />development documents. As with the 30% conceptual <br />documents, the 60% design development documents would <br />then be provided to the City staff for review and comment. <br />We will proceed to 90% construction documents upon <br />incorporation of the City’s 60% comments. Craven Thompson <br />will prepare the design permit applications and supporting <br />documentation at the 90% construction document stage to <br />assist the City of Sunny Isles Beach in obtaining the <br />construction permits for the infrastructure improvements <br />from the agencies having jurisdiction. <br />During this period, Craven Thompson will prepare and submit <br />responses to “Requests for Additional Information” (RAI) <br />relative to the permitting package submitted. Any comments <br />or additional requirements will be incorporated into the <br />design prior to preparing the 100% design documents. <br />In addition, Craven Thompson will review the project from a “constructability” of design perspective <br />to meet the City of Sunny Isles Beach’s goals and objectives and to maintain a firm grasp on the <br />costs associated with each project. The “constructability” of a design is an important facet to <br />consider during each phase of a design’s development. However, when a preliminary design is <br />nearing substantial completion (90% plans), it undergoes an in-house constructability review by our <br />Construction Department. This review specifically ensures that the plans make sense from a <br />construction perspective and is intended to minimize potential problems in the field during <br />construction. <br />D | Page 7
