Preliminary Design Phase. 2.10.1 The Design-Builder shall solicit and obtain written authorization from the Trustees to proceed with the Preliminary Design Phase work. Upon receipt of written authorization, the Design- Builder, using the approved Schematic Design Documents, shall prepare the Preliminary Design Documents. The development of the Preliminary Design Documents shall be responsive to the comments received from the Trustees during the Schematic phase.
2.10.2 The Preliminary Design Documents shall continue from the Schematic Design Documents to develop the design of the project in greater detail confirming or adjusting as required all aspects of the Schematic Design Documents to fix and illustrate the size, character, and quality of the project. The Preliminary Design Documents shall be prepared in accordance with Exhibit D.
Preliminary Design Phase. 1. Based upon Owner's approved program document and upon receipt of Owner's written authorization to proceed, Engineer shall, in consultation with Owner and any other persons or entities designated by Owner, ascertain Owner's needs and prepare Preliminary Design Documents that fix, describe and illustrate the full size, character and scope of the Project. The Preliminary Design Documents shall comply with requirements set forth in Attachment B, Document Requirements.
2. Engineer shall maintain a detailed statement of probable construction cost (hereinafter, “cost estimate”) projected to the expected time of bid opening. The cost estimate shall be in the format of a Target Value Design cost model (hereinafter, “cost model”) provided in Attachment J of this Agreement. The “Established Target Value Model” column will be populated using benchmarking data from projects considered similar to the Project in terms of scope, size and function. The “Design Tracking Model” column will be continually updated throughout this phase. As preliminary design is developed, decisions will be made regarding cost and value. The “Design Tracking Model” column will be tracked against the “Established Target Value Model” column to ensure preliminary design is progressing in a manner that is consistent with the Target Value Design goals established at the beginning of the Project.
3. At the end of this phase, the then-current version of the cost model shall be submitted by Engineer as part of securing Owner’s written approval of the Preliminary Design Documents. The “Design Tracking Model” column shall include a design contingency and be in sufficient detail to give reasonable assurance to Owner that construction costs shall not exceed the MACC. With submission of the cost model, the Engineer will also provide an updated project schedule per Article II.A.15.
4. Prior to the printing of final Preliminary Design Documents for Owner, Engineer shall complete the Acceptance Panel Review process per Attachment C.
5. Engineer shall provide a written response to all Owner Review Comments on the Review Comment Resolution Form, Attachment E. Said responses shall, as appropriate, be incorporated into a revised Statement of Probable Construction Costs.
