ARCHITECTURE <br />ENGINEERING <br />PLANNING <br />INTERIOR DESIGN <br />CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH RFQ NO. 15-04-01 <br />NEW FACILITY AT 18080 COLLINS AVE.18 <br />campuses to schools to renovations. This is a task <br />that is given importance and commences very ear- <br />ly in the design process. It is an assignment which <br />is very effective at WA as our in-house mechanical, <br />plumbing and electrical engineers expedite this pro- <br />cess. This unique collection of design professionals, <br />under one roof, facilitates the interaction of ideas <br />and options, resulting in the incorporation of the best <br />design concepts and systems. <br /> <br />WA has LEED accredited design professionals in <br />all of our disciplines. These are individuals with ex- <br />tensive experience in sustainable designs and pro- <br />fessionals who have successfully worked together <br />in the past to achieve the highest levels in energy <br />conservation and sustainable principals. <br />WA will guide the team towards selecting the most <br />appropriate (i.e. cost effective, sustainable) materi- <br />als and systems that will achieve the target sustain- <br />ability goals and maintain optimal air quality. WA will <br />provide the stakeholders with appropriate specifica- <br />tion language and will participate during the submit- <br />tal process to ensure that the owner’s intent is met <br />with the most appropriate products and systems. <br />WA’s recent LEED Gold Certifications include: <br />• Town of Miami Lakes Government Center <br />• City of Doral Public Works Facility <br />• City of Miami Beach Property Man- <br />agement Facility <br />• Camillus House Center <br />• Sheppard’s Court <br />• U.S. Coast Guard Housing <br />Technology Resources <br />Our team offers a depth and breadth of expertise <br />based on years of experience, talent and innovation. <br />Applying state-of-the-art technologies, WA is com- <br />pletely automated for design, programming, drawing <br />documentation and production, project manage- <br />ment, scheduling, specification and construction <br />administration. WA uses Newforma Project Center <br />which is a file manager and email manager that com- <br />bines all project related correspondents in one place <br />to reduce risk and save time in the management of <br />email, searches, markups, meeting minutes, project <br />files, record documents, images, file transfers, action <br />items and more. <br />WA has the capability of establishing project specif- <br />ic FTP/Client Portal sites for specific projects. The <br />FTP Site can be used as a depository for plans, re- <br />ports and calculations for the purpose of providing <br />secured access to the city, the WA Team and con- <br />sultants working for the city. A Client Portal in New- <br />forma is not just a depository of plans, calculations <br />and reports, but it can also be a management tool <br />for the city. The Portal can be set up to provide no- <br />tices to the city when a permit application has been <br />submitted, when regulatory agency RFI’s have been <br />received and when the consultant response was is- <br />sued. In addition, project schedules can be posted to <br />the portal as well.
