EVALUATION OF THE BUDGET AND ESTIMATE OF CONSTRUCTION COST Sample Clauses

EVALUATION OF THE BUDGET AND ESTIMATE OF CONSTRUCTION COST. When the Project Program requirements have been sufficiently identified, the Architect/Engineer shall prepare an Estimate of Construction Cost. This estimate may be based on current area, volume, similar conceptual or recent construction history estimating techniques. If Programming is included in the Architect/Engineer’s services under this Agreement, the Architect/Engineer shall update and refine the Estimate of Construction Cost throughout the programming process. The Architect/Engineer shall advise the Owner of any adjustments to previous Estimates indicated by changes in Project requirements or general market conditions. If at any time the Architect/Engineer’s Estimate of Construction Cost exceeds the Owner’s budgeted construction cost, the Architect/Engineer shall make appropriate recommendations to the Owner to adjust the Project’s size, quality, or budget. Evaluations of the Owner’s budget for the Project, the Estimate of Construction Cost, and updated Estimates of Construction Cost prepared by the Architect/Engineer, are to represent the Architect/Engineer’s best judgment as a design professional familiar with the construction industry. It is recognized, however, that neither the Architect/Engineer nor the Owner has control over the cost of labor, materials or equipment, the Contractor’s methods of determining bid prices, or over competitive bidding, market or negotiating conditions. Accordingly, the Architect/Engineer cannot and does not warrant or present that bids or negotiated prices will not vary from the Owner’s budget for the Project or from any Estimate of Construction Cost or evaluations prepared by the Architect/Engineer. The Construction Cost is part of the Project Budget and shall be the total “Hard” costs or, to the extent the Project is not completed, the estimated cost to the Owner of all elements of the Project programmed, designed, or specified by the Architect/Engineer. Estimates of Construction Cost shall include the cost at projected market rates of labor and materials and equipment designed, specified, selected or specially provided for by the Architect/Engineer, including the costs of management or supervision of construction or installation provided by a separate construction manager or contractor, plus a reasonable allowance for their overhead and profit. The Estimate of Construction Cost does not include “Soft” costs as defined in the Agreement.

EVALUATION OF THE BUDGET AND ESTIMATE OF CONSTRUCTION COST. 3.2.1 The Architect/Engineer shall prepare Estimates of Construction Cost. These estimates may be based on current area, volume, similar conceptual or recent construction history estimating techniques during Schematic and Design Development but shall be based upon direct quantity take-offs with correlation to current market trends throughout the Construction Documents phase. The Architect/Engineer shall update and refine the Estimate of Construction Cost at each phase of design and as requested by the Owner. The Architect/Engineer shall advise the Owner of any adjustments to previous Estimates indicated by changes in Project requirements or general market conditions. If at any time the Architect/Engineer’s Estimate of Construction Cost exceeds the Owner’s Project Budget, the Architect/Engineer shall make appropriate recommendations to the Owner to adjust the Project’s size, quality, or budget, and shall make modifications that are mutually agreed upon with the Owner in making such adjustments.

  • DIRECT CONSTRUCTION COST Direct Construction Cost means the sum of the amounts that Contractor actually and necessarily incurs constructing the Project in strict compliance with the Construction Documents. Direct Construction Cost includes only the cost categories set forth in this Article and does not include the Pre-Construction Phase Fees or the Construction Phase Fees unless specifically noted. References in the UGSC to adjustments in “cost” or “costs” mean the Direct Construction Cost.

  • Commencement of Construction Construction of the Project will start within thirty (30) days after notification to the Developer by the Owner, or as soon thereafter as weather and ground conditions permit.

  • Pre-Construction Phase Employer’s Liability, Workers’ Compensation, Comprehensive General Liability and Comprehensive Automobile Liability in the amounts as set forth in the UGSC.

  • Cost of Construction 1. During the Schematic Design, Design Development, and Construction Document Phases, the ARCHITECT’s estimates of Construction Cost shall be reconciled against the Budget approved by the DISTRICT pursuant to Article IV, Section 2.

  • PRE-CONSTRUCTION PHASE FEE The Pre-Construction Phase Fee is the total compensation payable to Contractor for the performance of Pre-Construction Phase Services, except for Additional Pre-Construction Phase Services approved in advance and in writing by Owner.

The Developer shall provide to, and coordinate with, Connecting Transmission Owner and NYISO with respect to proposed specifications for the excitation system, automatic voltage regulator, Large Generating Facility control and protection settings, transformer tap settings, and communications, if applicable.

  • ICIF Construction The ICIF shall be designed and constructed in accordance with Good Utility Practice. Within one hundred twenty (120) Calendar Days after the Commercial Operation Date, unless the Parties agree on another mutually acceptable deadline, Interconnection Customer shall deliver to Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner “as-built” drawings, information and documents for the ICIF, such as: a one-line diagram, a site plan showing the Generating Facility and the ICIF, plan and elevation drawings showing the layout of the ICIF, a relay functional diagram, relaying AC and DC schematic wiring diagrams and relay settings for all facilities associated with the Interconnection Customer’s step-up transformers, the facilities connecting the Generating Facility to the step-up transformers and the ICIF, and the impedances (determined by factory tests) for the associated step-up transformers and the Generating Facility.
