City of Sunny Isles Beach Government Center Annex | RFP# 15-08-02 K. Project Management Services Page 52 developing the design and the construction details with a focus on life cycle costing of design alternatives. Through evaluations coordinated with the City of Sunny Isles Beach Facilities and Perkins + Will, these value engineering recommendations will seek out the optimum value for the design process and for the long-term investment made by City of Sunny Isles Beach. Through extensive analysis of the building systems, materials and methods this process aims at reducing cost while keeping the design intent identified. The partnering sessions will evaluate alternate design concepts, materials, methods and timelines which will result in added value and economy to the project without compromising the functional objectives. The value engineering steps evaluated at each partnering session include: •Functional analysis •Alternative solutions review •Budget verification •Life cycle cost review •Design change recommendations •Cost comparison •Phasing and schedule review As the design considerations and value engineering options are identified, the Pre-construction Cost Event (PCE) Process assists in the development of the design, the environmental approach, the construction and constructability details and the life cycle costing of the project. It also firms up the understanding of City of Sunny Isles Beach’s objective(s) by testing the assumptions and decisions made at every stage of the project seeking out the optimum value for both the initial design and the long-term investment made by City of Sunny Isles Beach and its end users. The PCE process involves tracking every value engineering option and evaluating it based on the following criteria that will assist in confirming the project budget: •Program review •Functional analysis •Value definition •Objectives and criteria definition •Budget verification •Life cycle cost review •Design change recommendations •Cost comparison •Productivity and schedule review e. Life Cycle Cost Analysis Taking into account the cost of construction and the cost of maintenance over the expected life span of the project, City of Sunny Isles Beach, Perkins + Will and Skanska will work on evaluating the building systems, materials, methods, alternatives and purchasing criteria to assess the total operation and construction costs. Throughout the conceptual design and design development stages, the partnering sessions will estimate the overall costs of project alternatives in an effort to identify the design criteria best aligned with the project. This ensures that the project will provide the lowest overall cost to City of Sunny Isles Beach, consistent with its funding availability, quality and functionality. The costs evaluated throughout the pre-construction and design phase include: •Construction cost or initial cost •Operation cost •Expansion cost •Maintenance cost •Replacement cost •Non-monetary cost The criteria identified as a result of the life cycle cost analysis aids in the selection and identification of the building systems, the materials, the methods, the design consideration and value engineering options, the budget and the constructability of the project.
