Design Review and Recommendations a) The Construction Manager shall familiarize himself thoroughly with the evolving architectural, civil, mechanical, plumbing, electrical and structural plans and specifications and shall follow the development of design through Contract Documents. The Construction Manager shall make recommendations with respect to the selection of systems and materials, and cost reducing alternatives including assistance to the Architect-Engineer and Owner in evaluating alternative comparisons versus long term cost effect. The evaluation shall speak to the benefits of the speed of erection and early completion of the project. The Construction Manager shall furnish pertinent information as to the availability of materials and labor that will be required. The Construction Manager shall submit to the Owner and Architect-Engineer such comments as may be appropriate concerning construction, feasibility, and practicality. The Construction Manager shall bring to the Owner and the Architect-Engineer’s attention any apparent defects in the design, drawing and specifications, or other documents. The Construction Manager shall prepare an estimate of the construction cost at appropriate milestones during the design and shall evaluate such estimate with the project budget. The Construction Manager shall recommend cost saving alternatives, as appropriate, at each design milestone. At each design milestone the Owner, Architect Engineer and Construction Manager shall conduct a value engineering review.
b) After receiving the Construction Documents for each phase of the project, the Construction Manager shall perform a specific review thereof. Promptly after completion of the review, the Construction Manager shall submit to the Owner, with a duplicate to the Architect-Engineer, a written report covering suggestions or recommendations previously submitted, additional suggestions or recommendations as the Construction Manager may deem appropriate, and all actions taken by the Architect-Engineer with respect to same, any comments he may deem to be appropriate with respect to separating the work into separate contracts and/or alternative materials.
c) At completion of the Construction Manager’s review of the plans and specifications, except only as to specific matters as may be identified by appropriate comments pursuant to this section, the Construction Manager shall warrant, without assuming any architectural or engineering responsibility, that the plans and specifications are consistent, p...
Design Review and Recommendations. 1. The XXXX shall participate in all design review meetings with the Owner that may be scheduled. For each design submittal, the XXXX shall review the design documents for clarity, consistency, constructability, construction feasibility and practicality, and identification of errors, omissions, conflicts and apparent defects and coordination of documentation.
2. The XXXX shall follow the development of design through final Construction Documents, reviewing the in-progress Schematic Design Documents and Design Development Documents, and familiarize itself thoroughly with all construction documents related to the Program, involving all required disciplines, including without limitation the evolving architectural, civil, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, information technology, and structural plans and specifications, as well as all other drawings and data related to the Program prepared by the Architect. The XXXX shall analyze the design for constructability, including construction feasibility and practicality, and alternative materials/methods.
3. The XXXX shall assist and advise the Owner in exploring potential value engineering, alternative approaches, materials and systems to minimize total construction and operation costs, or to enhance the quality of the Project or any Components thereof.
4. The XXXX shall continuously monitor the impact of proposed design on the Program and GMP schedules and recommend adjustments in the design documents or construction bid packaging to ensure completion of the Program and GMPs in the most expeditious manner possible.
Design Review and Recommendations. A. Review and Recommendations and Warranty - The DESIGN-BUILD FIRM's construction personnel shall familiarize themselves thoroughly with the evolving architectural, civil, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and structural plans and specifications and shall follow the development of design from Phase I through Phase II. They shall make recommendations to the designers with respect to the selection of systems and materials, and cost reducing alternatives including assistance to the OWNER in evaluating alternative comparisons versus long term cost effects. The evaluation shall speak to the benefits of the speed of erection and early completion of the project. They shall furnish pertinent information as to the availability of materials and labor that will be required. They shall call to the DESIGN-BUILD FIRM's designer's attention any apparent defects in the design, drawings and specifications or other documents. They shall prepare an estimate of the construction cost utilizing the unit quantity survey method.
B. Long Lead Procurements - The DESIGN-BUILD FIRM's construction personnel shall review the design for the purpose of identifying long lead procurement items (machinery, equipment, materials and supplies). When each item is identified, the DESIGN-BUILD FIRM shall notify the subcontractors and the Project Manager of the required procurement and schedule. Such information shall be included in the bid documents and made a part of all affected sub-contracts. The DESIGN-BUILD FIRM shall keep informed of the progress of the respective subcontractors or suppliers, manufacturing or fabricating such items and advise Project Manager and OWNER of any problems or prospective delay in delivery.
Design Review and Recommendations. Developer shall supervise, coordinate, and otherwise facilitate and familiarize itself thoroughly with the evolving Preliminary Plans and Specifications and the Plans and Specifications and shall direct and closely follow the development of such documents from preliminary design through working and construction documents. Developer shall make recommendations to Architect and Architect’s Consultants with respect to the selection of systems, materials, and cost reducing alternatives (including assistance to County in evaluating alternative comparisons versus long term cost effects, and value-engineering). Such evaluation shall be directed to the benefits of the speed of erection and early completion of the Project. Developer shall furnish to County pertinent information in connection with the availability of materials and labor that will be required for the Construction Work. County’s failure to notify Developer that such alternative comparisons are not acceptable within thirty (30) days following receipt of such pertinent information from Developer shall be deemed to constitute the County’s approval of such alternative comparisons. Developer shall prepare or cause to be prepared by qualified cost estimators an estimate of the Construction cost utilizing the unit quantity survey method.
Design Review and Recommendations. Without assuming liability for the design of the PROJECT, the XXXX during Phase I – Construction Services for Design Phase, shall familiarize itself thoroughly with the evolving architectural, civil, mechanical, plumbing, electrical and structural plans and specifications and shall follow the development of design from schematic design through Construction Documents. The XXXX shall make recommendations with respect to the PROJECT site, foundations, selection of systems and materials and cost reducing alternatives, including assistance to the ENGINEER and the CITY REPRESENTATIVE in evaluating alternative comparisons versus long‐term cost effects as the PROJECT Team deem appropriate. The XXXX shall furnish pertinent information as to the availability of materials and labor that will be required. The XXXX shall submit to the CITY REPRESENTATIVE, the Permitting Authority and the ENGINEER(S) such comments in writing as the XXXX and the CITY REPRESENTATIVE may deem appropriate concerning construction feasibility and practicality. The XXXX shall call to the CITY REPRESENTATIVE and ENGINEER’s attention any apparent defects in the design, drawings and specifications or other documents that it notes.
