Construction Management. (1) The Consultant should understand that construction cost and staging estimates are the basis for budget programming and project-level decisions made by the Commission. • Preparation and Review of Programmatic Cost Estimates. • Preparation and Review of Engineering Cost Estimates and “construction durations” prepared by Consulting Engineers as part of the Commission’s stakeholder outreach program. (2) Construction Scheduling and schedule analysis (CPM) – The Consultant shall have the capability of developing detailed “contractor type” construction schedules using CPM methods, and of thoroughly evaluating the schedules developed by contractors engaged by the Commission, based on the Commission’s standard scheduling specification. (3) Constructability/Bidability Review- The Consultant shall have the capability of performing “contractor perspective” constructability reviews, with particular emphasis on equipment needs, access, inter- discipline reviews to identify and eliminate interferences or conflicts, site storage requirements, temporary loadings, construction sequencing, identification and elimination of hazards, environmental issues, noise impacts, etc. The Consultant shall have the capability to mobilize/facilitate constructability/bidability review charrettes involving the Commission’s staff including its Capital Program Management Consultant (CPMC) staff, the design engineer, and other independent “subject experts”. The purpose of these constructability/bidability review charrettes normally conducted after the completion of the Concept Phase is to confirm the scope of the project prior to the Design Consultant proceeding with Preliminary and Final Design. (4) Claims assistance and litigation support. (5) Value Engineering. (6) Safety Reviews of on-going projects under construction. (7) Review of Commission’s General Provision’s to see if they align with the current version of PennDOT’s 408. (8) Dispute Resolution
