Andrews Way, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33309 Florida Registration: AR91520 <br />Phone: 954-522-4123 admin@wza-architects.com <br />PROJECT QUALITY CONTROL <br />Listed below is a brief summary that describes WZA’s quality control methods for the (1) Design Phase and (2) the <br />Construction Phase of project development for a typical project. <br />1) Quality Control During Design / Pre-Construction Phase <br />WZA’s Project Manager and the Principals will work closely with the Design Team and Contractor to <br />ensure that the Construction Documents meet the City’s intended project scope. <br />We do an early thorough walk through of the construction site, and review all as-built documents to <br />minimize potential conflicts and unnecessary costs for field modifications. <br />Construction Documents are reviewed by the entire team at 30%, 60%, 90%, and at 100% stages. <br />WZA’s 44 years of public bid construction projects had resulted in a quality control program that is second <br />to none. Not only are the firm principals directly involved in the design and the construction document <br />generation, they also review the sets with a keen eye for potential conflicts. <br />WZA uses an AIA Document Checklist to ensure each project meets the highest quality standards. <br />A full set of specifications, based on the Construction Specifications Institute Master Format, is generated <br />for the project. All products, techniques, materials, warranties, and basis of quality are defined. <br />2) Quality Control During Construction Phase <br />Specific responsibilities include: <br />The quality of the finished product we achieve together starts with comprehensive, high quality <br />Construction Documents. This component is assured by WZA and the strong team of Consultants. <br />The construction team, specifically lead by the Contractor Project Manager and Superintendent ensure that <br />the proper level of Quality Control of all subcontracted and self-performed work is maintained. They <br />coordinate the performance of all required inspections and testing, and have the authority to stop all work <br />when it is determined to either be unsafe, defective or not to the proper standards of quality. <br />The design team and the construction team have direct responsibility to review all shop drawings and <br />specification submittals to ensure compliance with design drawings. Accurate and timely delivery and <br />review of these documents is mandatory to ensure on time supply of the required materials and equipment <br />necessary for success of the project. <br />WZA pursues a quality job through its long-term relationships with proven Contractors that have for years <br />or even decades shown qualities of both character and craftsmanship. These Contractors have proven job <br />after job that the client’s expectations and needs come first. <br />Walters Zackria Associates, PLLC | RFQ # 26-07-01 | Page 134
