Re: Construction Management Services for CIP 716 – Street Rehabilitation and Park Pathway Restoration Project
CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG) is pleased to present this proposal to the City of Foster (City) to provide construction management and material testing services. We have a thorough understanding that the City requires a consultant to oversee construction management and material testing for the CIP 716 – Street Rehabilitation and Park Pathway Restoration project. Enclosed is CSG’s detailed plan outlining our approach to construction management services, our proposed personnel, subconsultant details, fee schedule, and resumes.
APPROACH TO CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES
CSG has provided construction management and inspection services on many projects for clients throughout California. Our approach to managing construction management type contracts promotes flexibility, efficiency and provides the right expertise to match the project’s specific needs. Our office location and staff being in close proximity to the City enables us to serve the City in the most efficient manner. We have managed projects from the advertise bid award phase through project close out.
Provided below is a breakdown of CSG’s typical construction management approach. We have provided a full CM team as well as individual staffing to act as an extension of City staff.
PRE - CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Should the City of Foster City need these additional services, CSG stands ready to provide them as they have proven to be valuable towards saving costs during construction.
Constructability Reviews—Constructability reviews will allow CSG and the City to determine the biddability and the buildability of the project. CSG will provide the City with a review of all contract documents and permits. CSG will identify conflicts, or any changes required in the contract language to meet the intent of the contract. The goal will be to construct the project safely, on schedule and within budget. Some of the elements CSG will look at include:
Site logistics and constraints
Environmental impacts of proposed
construction methods
Clarity of contract documents
Technical Constructability
Compatibility of contract plans, specifications
and applicable standards
Subsurface soil data
Scheduling requirements
Construction phasing if necessary
Erosion and sedimentation control
Maintenance and protection of traffic
Local event conflicts
Utility clearances for constructability and
project schedule
Access to properties and businesses by
pedestrians during construction
Long lead-time items
Constructability reviews help establish project duration, milestone dates, and other applicable construction parameters which help in developing a clear and reliable project CPM schedule. CSG will value engineer the project to assure it will be constructed as economically and efficiently as possible.
Public Notification—Keeping the public informed of the project’s progress is critical to the project’s success. Our approach would be to strategize with the City during the pre-construction phase on developing the most effective means of communicating project-specific progress, schedule updates, and traffic impacts and/or detours. CSG’s main goal is to maximize clarity and coverage throughout the life of the project, as well as educate the public on the processes of public works construction projects. CSG has been successful in utilizing various forms and combinations of distribution, such as hotlines, written notifications, newsletters, sign postings, and project websites. CSG understands that the public relations effort is dynamic, will require diligent coordination with the City, and will be adjusted based on the project’s needs.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
After the award of a project and prior to start of construction, CSG will lead or participate in the following steps.
Pre-Construction Conference—Our staff will lead the efforts of holding a pre-construction meeting.
They will prepare the agenda, coordinate the meeting with all stakeholders and prepare meeting minutes for distribution. Upon award of the project contract, all appropriate personnel will be invited to the pre-construction meeting, including the selected contractor, City project manager, utility companies and, at the City’s discretion, any other involved entities. Some of the subjects to be covered will include but are not limited to contract milestones, contract submittal requirements, lump sum items using a schedule of values, change order and potential claims procedures, the contractor’s construction schedule, technical issues, safety procedures, along with labor compliance issues and certified payroll requirements.
Utility Company Coordination—Utility work can greatly impact the progress of a construction project.
To minimize the impact, it will be critical to work with the City to establish a working relationship with the utilities for the life of the project, identify all utility work and anticipate potential conflicts as soon as possible, incorporate the utility companies into the project team meetings, clarify protocols and construction crews’ availabilities, and strategize contingencies for unforeseen circumstances.
During the Construction Phase, CSG will be responsible and will enforce requirements typically requested by jurisdictions.
Providing detailed documentation using the
City-preferred form of documentation
Daily inspector’s report
Tracking of any subcontractor’s work
Any safety issues regarding contractor
Maintaining project files
Date and time stamping of all documents
Maintaining Submittal Logs
Maintaining Submittal Distribution Lists
RFI log (submittal, review, and return)
Correspondence logs and tracking
Tracking status of contract change orders
Tracking status of RFI's
Tracking potential claims
Tracking weekly statements of working
days
Tracking Buy America and other contract
requirements
Documenting contractor’s detours, lane
closures and staging plans
Documenting contractors’ labor
compliance performance
Approve “Schedule of Values” submitted
by contractor
Provide monthly reports documenting
construction progress, etc.
Provide expenditure report
Tracking progress pay estimates and
overall project budget
Monitor Contractor’s Performance—Throughout the project, the inspectors will enforce all requirements of applicable codes, specifications, and contract drawings. There will be daily communication and coordination with the contractor. This will limit miscommunication, resolve issues on the field level to anticipate project progress, address deficiencies, and minimize delays.
Construction Schedule Monitoring—Our staff will conduct weekly project meetings to review the project’s status, update the project schedule, discuss any outstanding items, resolve disagreements and work collaboratively towards the successful completion of each phase of the project. The contractor’s construction schedule will be used during these meetings as a tool to track the progress of construction relative to the allowable working days and approved budget. All changes that impact on the baseline schedule will be closely monitored and discussed at the weekly meetings. Schedule updates are critical for accurately monitoring the Contractor’s progress and evaluating potential claims and CCO’s that might arise.
Weekly Statement of Working Days—CSG’s Resident Engineer, Assistant Resident Engineer/Office Engineer, and Inspectors will monitor and document working days weekly per the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM). This includes contract times and documenting time extensions.
Daily Inspector Report—CSG uses an
effective and detailed report system that
tracks contractor personnel and
equipment, work progress and field
changes while coordinating with the
contractor daily to reduce confusion. This
system has proved to be a useful and
important component in the reduction of
future issues. Our Inspector’s report will
be accompanied by daily photos.
Maintaining Photos and Videos—Photos
will be taken continuously during
construction. All signage and lane closure
setups will be documented, and photos
taken to illustrate prior striping and, in case of accidents, to provide documentation of the change associated with the ongoing work. A similar procedure undertaken at the beginning of construction will also be done at project closeout. Photos will be taken of the completed project and will be part of the final package to be submitted to the City with all project documents.
Managing Change Orders—Inspectors will bring any unforeseen changes to the attention of the City Resident Engineer or Project Manager. Some of our Inspectors are well versed in drafting change orders and can take on this task if needed by the City. Upon the issuance of a change order, the work will be monitored and tracked, including labor, equipment, and materials. On a force account change order, our inspectors employ a technique of requiring the Contractor’s foreman to agree to and sign the work order to eliminate disputes at the time of payment.
Our primary approach to managing change orders will be to utilize bid item increases, if applicable.
Otherwise, an agreed upon lump sum and force account will be applied as a last resort if an agreement cannot be established or time is of the essence. In the case of an urgent change, authorization to proceed with a not-to-exceed amount will be provided. All changes will promptly be brought to the attention of the City’s Project Manager prior to authorization of any additional expenditure.
Managing Claims—CSG’s knowledgeable staff will utilize its understanding of the design process, contract language, scheduling, construction techniques and costs to provide the City with critical information it needs to manage construction claims. CSG will provide the City with an assessment of the outstanding issues. David Bishop, PE will take the lead in managing claims should any arise. Our staff will assist in developing a strategy to resolve claims and disputes.
Requests for Information (RFI’s)/ Design Clarifications—Our staff will receive and process all RFI’s from the contractor. They will conduct meetings if required to define, clarify, and resolve all RFI’s expeditiously. They will prepare responses to RFI’s to the extent possible. All of their direct responses will be in writing and will be answered within 24 hours. If an RFI requires the input of the designer, they will immediately provide a copy (via e-mail or fax) of the RFI to the designer and will follow-up with a phone call to discuss the nature of the request. The City’s Project Manager will be kept informed of all design related RFI’s. Records of all RFI’s and responses from the contractor will be properly filed and will be available at all times.
Progress Payments—Our staff will be responsible for reviewing and recommending progress payments to contractors. Progress payment records will be maintained, and measurement and payment will be made in accordance with the contract documents and the City’s procedures for progress payments.
Inspector records will be used to corroborate contractor requests. Our staff will meet with the contractor representative to compare item quantities at the end of each shift or when the contractor is performing item quantity measurements. This procedure eliminates most, if not all, conflicts at the time of progress payment submittal and processing.
Our team will also submit a monthly budget status review document to the City’s Project Manager that provides an overview of project’s financial status, a projection for anticipated future costs, and an update of the overall budget status versus the contractor’s construction progress. CSG’s inspectors will measure and track quantities on a daily basis, in conjunction with preparation of the daily field report. These quantities will be measured and compared with the measurements taken by the contractor’s superintendent so that potential conflicts can be resolved prior to the submission of a progress payment. At the end of the agreed upon pay period, the Contractor’s progress payments will be reviewed for accuracy.
Labor Compliance—Inspectors will verify the contractor’s compliance with labor laws, including performing spot check labor surveys and interviews and verifying certified payrolls to make sure the contractor is paying prevailing wages to its employees. They will report their findings to the City’s labor compliance officer in a manner and frequency that is acceptable to the labor compliance office.
Non-Compliant Work—Inspectors will use the mini memo out on the project to inform the Contractor of non-compliance of the Project Plans or Specifications. In addition, they will include the non- compliance in the inspector’s daily diary. Our inspectors will immediately report non-compliant work, so that an official letter is prepared to communicate to the contractor and City Project Manager. All reporting of non-compliance work will be accomplished within 48 hours after the occurrence to facilitate the Contractor’s timely correction of the deficiencies.
Final Inspection Punch List—With every project, the inspector generates a document listing work that does not conform to contract specifications. The inspector will work with the contractor to ensure proper completion of all projects prior to final payment. A walkthrough with all stakeholders will be conducted, and a punch list will be developed for the contractor to complete. No project is fully completed until all punch list work is addressed and finalized.
Record File—Inspectors will ensure that the contract administration, documentation and filing system are prepared and maintained in accordance with CSG’s Construction Management Filing System. Our construction managers have used this program successfully on several large construction projects to monitor, coordinate, review and respond to, for example, submittals, RFI’s, potential changes, and change orders. The construction management filing system allows the project manager to track all areas of coordination to ensure complete and timely accomplishment of critical or time-sensitive items. This system can be tailored to each job and access can be provided to key members of the project team including City staff, the designer, and the contractor. The system enables the team to remain updated on the latest status of submittals, RFI’s, and action item ownership.
Review Traffic Control/Detour Plans—A CSG resident engineer or assistant resident engineer will review traffic control plans and offer comments to the City. They will see to it that the contractor is complying with MUTCD and the City’s standards and ordinances. Lane closure can only be allowed in the time window in which it was specified in the project plans or City municipal codes.
Environmental Compliance—CSG staff will review all documents associated with project including EIR’s or Negative Declaration documents to ensure contractor’s full compliance before/during and possibly after construction. We will work closely with any environmental consultant the City hires to monitor any specified Species.
