What’s Important to YOUR DistrictHow are you unique to other Districts?How will this affect your Bond planning?Some typical areas:

consistency School equality/consistency
Do you have a District Standard?• Advantages of a District Standard
– Consistency for maintenance crews– Consistency of training for crews– Ability to stock parts/replacement stock– HVAC filter sizing (bulk purchase)– Maintain fewer types – recall– Energy Management System– Ability to have fewer keys
How about Operations/Maintenance?• Seek input from Maintenance Staff – they
know whats involved to operate and maintain
• Plan for maintenance after warranty• Account for staffing & budget needs of the
project• Think cost to operate Think cost to
maintainEnergy/Power Consumption CleaningWater Usage MaintenanceTechnology Upkeep (landscape)Gas Replacement CostBuilding Hours Graffiti Removal
Vandalism Concerns
So You Have a Project• Do you know what’s
important on this project?– Budget?– Schedule?– Scope?– Key feature
prioritization?– General look and
feel?– Operational cost long-
term?
Delivery Methods for Construction
• Hard Bid/Competitive Lump Sum• Select Bidders List/Competitive Lump Sum• CM@Risk• Job Order Contracting (JOC)• Design/Build
Each delivery method has a purpose
When You Begin the Hunt …..You Should Know What You’re Hunting
For! Selecting Vendors
– Every CM@Risk and Architect have a niche.
– It might be under some layers of fluff but it’s there. Dig a little and you will find the true niche for every firm
– Important to match firms to projects– Think about ‘rightsizing’ projects to
contractors
The Hunt Continued…..
• Look for the best match… not just the flashiest! Who’s in line with YOUR goals?
• Who’s going to pay attention to your project and treat it with the specialness it deserves?
THINGS TO WATCH DURING SELECTION• Ask around… Who’s won what? • What projects have they recently proposed
on that they have a good chance of winning?• Evaluate current backlog… Do they have
team readily available to perform precon?• How many other rfq’s is same team
proposed on?• Watch completion dates of projects
proposed team is on.
The Team members proposed will be who you will be working with…
NOW YOU’VE GOT YOUR ‘A’ TEAM ASSEMBLED
• Identify who’s who in the zoo…• Key roles and points of contact• Who’s authorized to make decisions
on scope, budget and schedule on behalf of the District?
• Who’s NOT authorized?• Set meeting schedule• Set communication protocol (who is on meeting distribution list)
TIME TO ALIGN THE TEAM
Kickoff: Vital step to ensure all team members understand the District’s goals
What Are the Project Goals?
• Conduct goal setting charrette with key stakeholders to create, prioritize, and commit to project goals
• Identify:– ‘must have’ goals– ‘nice to have’ goals– ‘wish list’ goals
Project Goals are HUGE!
What’s most important? PRIORITIZE
• Budget?• Schedule?• Design Award?• Cost to Operate/Maintain?• Energy Efficiency?• Alternative Energy?• Environmental Impact?
Explain YOUR Expectations• Budget: Meet this or else!• Schedule: Can’t miss school
opening!• GMP: Cannot go back to
School Board• Change Orders: None except
returned savings• Contingency: What should we
carry?• Jobsite Conditions:
Appearance on occupied site
ACCOUNT/TRACK
• Include BOTH Architect & CM@Risk in crystallizing YOUR expectation/goals on the project – INSIST on TEAMWORK
• Track progress at EVERY meeting.• A running review of YOUR
goals/expectations should be on agenda at every project update meeting.
“What gets focused on gets done”
WHAT REALLY IS THE BUDGET?• Watch hidden costs• Power Company Design Fees• Water Fees, Water Meters• Development Fees• Streetwork
– Add streetlights/traffic signals?
• Design/Architectural Fees• FF&E (who’s buying what?
– Furniture/kitchen/playground
• Permit Fees• Adjacent Ways
AVOID THE EXTRA $ REQUEST TO THE BOARD
WHAT REALLY IS THE SCHEDULE?• When must project be completed?• When can we start?• When are school breaks?• Are there special working hours?• When are funds available (bond sale?)• Is there an Adjacent Ways calendar we
need to be concerned with?• WATCH DESIGN PHASE &
PRECONSTRUCTION PHASE LIKE A HAWK!!!– Lost time in design/precon is expensive
to make up by accelerating the actual construction duration
Combine the Following Ingredients For Success:• Thought/Planning by District• Selecting the right Architect & CM@Risk• Establish clear goals & objectives• Continually stay on track Your place
setting should help you enjoy a great meal!!!
