Conceptual/Schematic Design Phase. Upon written authorization from the District to proceed with the Schematic Design Phase, based upon accepted deliverables from the preceding phase, the Bridging Architect shall prepare for the District's review a Schematic Design, containing the following items as applicable to the Project scope, as follows:
a. Within the first two (2) weeks following the start of Schematic Design, meet with the District and its representatives to further prepare and/or revise the scope of work list and general work plan from the Programming Phase, for documentation in a computer- generated project schedule. This scope of work list and work plan will identify specific tasks including but not limited to: interviews, data collection, analysis, report preparation, development of a minimum of three (3) schematic design options for District review and selection of preferred scheme, and estimating that are part of the work of the Project. Also identified will be milestone activities or dates, specific task responsibilities of the Bridging Design Team, required completion times necessary for the review and approval by the District and by pertinent regulatory agencies and additional definition of deliverables.
