%, B k #% r Gateway Park Construction Management Services RFQ# 12 -06 -01 Decision Making: The CIMA team is composed of goal- driven professionals who are focused on providing the City with results — not excuses. CIMA's decision making will be done at the level where it is most effective. Mr. Yeslow will delegate authority (while still retaining responsibility) as appropriate and necessary to ensure that our goals for construction quality, project progress and budgeting are met. The following principles will be followed to ensure quality decision making: All issues will be addressed as soon as they are identified. • All issues will be fully documented until they are resolved. • Issue resolution will be sought through research, contract review or Architect recommendations. The project manager will be notified of any issues as soon as possible, and will receive advance notification of any and all noteworthy events. Project Progress: CIMA aims to complete its construction projects with cost and time overruns of less than 5 %. The CIMA team is committed to meeting and exceeding this goal. The following key principles are followed to ensure excellent project progress: i • CM staff must be knowledgeable about all specifications, plans and requirements. • CIMA will review the contractor's baseline schedule for completeness and use it as a milestone calendar to determine monthly progress. • CIMA will use bi- weekly progress meetings to discuss the schedule for the subsequent week and C ask questions about why any of the previous week's activities were not completed successfully. • CIMA will provide quick resolution of any issues that could lead to a project delay, regardless of which party is at fault (i.e., the contractor, EOR, CIMA or City). Submittals and Requests for Information: CIMA is aware that significant submittals will be r required for this Project. Shop drawings will include drawings, diagrams, illustrations, schedules, catalog %� data, material certifications, fabrication procedures, storage and /or transportation procedures, test results, manuals and design calculations submitted by the contractor to portions of the project. CIMA will review the contract documents, derive a list of submittals which will be required for these projects, and consult the Architect / Engineer on their completeness. Upon agreement with the on the required submittals, a meeting will be held with the contractor and the list of submittals will be supplied for implementation and inclusion in the contractor's schedule of submittals. The contractor will be requested to present a schedule of submittals at the pre- construction meeting. A submittal log will be used to track all shop drawings and submittals. This log will forecast and track due dates for submittals to avoid any delays. CIMA will review the submittal log each week to determine the submittals' status. The request for information (RFI) is a process used to address construction and design issues. CIMA will i exercise control regarding all project issues via the established lines of communication. It is important that the contractor communicate through a single source in order to avoid multiple and varied responses i to the contractor's requests. l I CIMA's Qualification Statement Page 13of16
