Design Document Review Clause Samples

The Design Document Review clause establishes the process by which one party submits design documents for evaluation and approval by the other party. Typically, this clause outlines the timeframe for review, the criteria for approval or rejection, and the procedure for addressing comments or required revisions. Its core function is to ensure that both parties agree on the design specifications before proceeding, thereby minimizing misunderstandings and reducing the risk of costly changes later in the project.
Design Document Review. The Construction Manager shall assist the City in reviewing the Construction Documents for clarity, consistency, constructability and coordination among the various contractors. The Construction Manager’s first review of the Construction Documents shall occur at the 30% stage of the design for each component of the Project as designated by the City and shall be ongoing until 100% plans are final and complete for all phases of the Project. If the Construction Manager recognizes that portions of the Construction Documents are (1) in violation of Applicable Law or (2) in any way inadequate to achieve the intended result of the Project, the Construction Manager shall immediately notify the City in writing, describing the apparent violation or inadequacy. 1. The Construction Manager will periodically evaluate the availability of labor, materials/equipment, building systems, cost-sensitive aspects of the design, and other factors that may impact the Cost Model, GMP Proposals and/or the Master Schedule. 2. The Construction Manager will identify those additional surface and subsurface investigations that are required to provide the necessary information for the Construction Manager to construct the Project. After completion of pre-construction services, the Construction Manager may provide additional investigations to improve the adequacy and completeness of the Site condition information and data made available with the Construction Documents. The Construction Manager will be responsible for the time and cost required to obtain such additional investigations, except as otherwise provided by specific Additional Services. 3. The Construction Manager will meet with the Project team as required to review designs during their development. The Construction Manager will thoroughly familiarize itself with the evolving documents through conceptual design, preliminary design, and development of the Construction Documents (detailed design). The Construction Manager will proactively advise the Project team and make recommendations on factors related to construction costs, and concerns pertaining to the feasibility and practicality of any proposed means and methods, selected materials, equipment and building systems, and, labor and material availability. The Construction Manager will also advise the Project team on proposed Site improvements, excavation and foundation considerations, as well as, concerns that exist with respect to coordination of the Construction Documents.
