Budget Control The SYRUSA team will complete the City's Project on time and under budget through: • On -going Constructability Reviews: Thorough review of the contract documents • Value Engineering: We will constantly be looking for means and methods to reduce the project duration and cost, while being thoughtful to not create impacts to the public, the cities, and the environment. • Minimize Overhead and Construction Management Cost: Controlling cost overruns by reducing the number of CCOs from the start, and minimize impact to the schedule to avoid extended overhead charges and construction management cost. • CCO Merit: Thorough evaluation of all contract documents for merit determination during review of CCO requests. • Documentation: Ensuring the daily time and materials reports are accurate and confirmed by inspection staff. • Reporting: Providing a monthly status report of contractor and construction management costs, including costs to date compared to the contract time expended, remaining contract time and budget. 0 Schedule Control Schedule control is a critical on -going task which begins with the base -line schedule. The baseline schedule and monthly update are reviewed for compliance with contract specifications. Project Manager Jerry De Santos will insure that the Contractor includes all key items in the baseline schedule, logic sequencing is established, and the following items are followed: • Major activities are included • Logic sequencing is established • Procurement of long lead items and their TASKS AND DELIVERABLES The table in Exhibit D.3 on pages 19-23 outlines the tasks necessary for successful completion of the Project along with deliverables and the responsible personnel for each task. SYRUSA is also focused on minimizing risks throughout the Project and we have identified potential risks and risk mitigation strategies in Exhibit D.3 associated with each task. manufacturing • Shop drawings submittal and review periods • Utility relocation and installation • Float and completion During construction, monthly schedule updates are maintained and submitted by the contractor and reviewed by our team for compliance with the contract documents. Reported progress by field inspectors and Construction Manager/Resident Engineer Jose Corona are compared to the submitted monthly schedule updates. A narrative of the schedule should be included in the submitted monthly update and include: • Work progress for the new period • Reasons for schedule revisions • Discussion to the critical path and any change to it • Documentation to problems and delays The inspectors' daily reports will include schedule items and inspectors, as well as our Construction Manager/Resident Engineer Jose Corona, will note discrepancies between the actual field activities and the activities on the schedule. These discrepancies will be discussed with the contractor in the weekly status meetings and a plan will be put in place to get the project back on track, ultimately avoiding delays and claims. Based on our team's expertise and decades of experience working in construction management for transportation projects in Southern California, we have the first-hand experience and project understanding to anticipate and mitigate the risks on projects similar to this.
