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, practical, feasible and constructible. The Construction Manager shall warrant that the work described in the plans and specifications for the various bidding packages is constructible within the scheduled construction time. d) The Construction Manager shall review the design for the purpose of identifying long lead procurement items (i.e. machinery, equipment, materials and supplies). When each item is identified, the Construction Manager shall notify the subcontractors, the Owner, and the Architect-Engineer of the required procurement and schedule. Such information shall be included in the bid documents and made a part of all affected sub-contracts. As soon as the Architect-Engineer has completed drawings and technical specifications and the Construction Manager has obtained permitting approval, the Construction Manager shall prepare invitations for bids. The Construction Manager shall keep informed of the progress of the respective subcontractors or suppliers, manufacturing or fabricating such items and advise Project Director, Owner and Architect-Engineer of any problems or prospective delay in delivery.
