STATEMENT CONT.
PROJECT
APPROACH
IMMEDIATELY UPON AWARD OF THE PROJECT, WA WILL:
1. Visit the current facilities and review the SCVTV standards needed and the program better to understand the various needs and economy of space. This will ensure that multiple uses can be accommodated and that the spaces comply with the SCVTV workplace and television studio requirements.
2. Set up a kickoff meeting with SCVTV ‘s key stakeholders and decision-makers to garner any additional program, aesthetic insights, and project goals. We will also establish the communication protocols and point of contact for each entity involved.
3. Design Deliverable Schedule: We will review the overall project schedule and establish a clear schedule for deliverables and project meetings and provide this schedule to the necessary consultants. This schedule will include SCVTV review and decision time – which will be discussed at the kickoff meeting.
4. Onboarding the Consultants: We will review the scope and existing conditions with the consultants.
Consultants will conduct a site walk with us if the conditions or scope warrant this review. We will also provide SCVTV ‘s design requirements so consultants understand all aspects of the scope required to execute the project. We will review consultant proposals and advise SCVTV on the scope of work and fees to ensure they align with the existing conditions and proposed program. Please note this typically happens at the Design Development phase but could happen earlier If the existing conditions warrant engineering upgrades or changes.
PROGRAMMING AND TEST FIT PHASE, WA WILL:
1. Use the information provided by SCVTV and the kickoff meeting to produce a program document to identify and validate both current requirements and future growth. • This document shall define the special programs and spatial musts and the requirements for unique architecture and interior features.
2. Review the provided test fit and provide modifications as required to map out how the proposed space could be used based on the program to ensure the program and scope are accounted for. WA will also identify deficiencies to the program based on the building conditions if necessary.
PRELIMINARY SPACE PLANS
1. WA shall update the test fits with furniture and architectural features for additional review.
2. Two (2) preliminary Space Plans are included deficiencies to the program based on the building conditions if necessary.
3. To further document the selected project site, WA reviews the CAD or BIM (Revit) model provided to verify the information provided and then reviews the information in the field for accuracy. WA will update minor changes to the provided documents. If significant variations from the CAD drawings to the field conditions are found, we will notify the client and advise on best practices to rectify the issue.
4. WA shall identify additional consultants required and their scope of work based on the current building conditions. We will work directly with the Project Manager to acquire additional consultants at the appropriate time to meet the project goals and schedule.
5. This includes reviewing existing as-built documentation, such as the DWG file of the existing floor plan and the ADA Path of Travel needed for submission to the building department.
6. Once the Test Fit Plan is approved, we provide a preliminary Pricing Plan for Contractor and/or Cost Estimator use. Because we are combining the Schematic and Design Documentation phases, we advise that we be provided a Pricing Plan Package, which includes a Demolition Plan, Floor Plan, Reflected Ceiling Plan, Finish Plan, and associated pricing notes to help define the construction budget.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN:
The Schematic Design Phase uses the approved budget to develop the Schematic Design Drawings. This shall:
1. Refine the selected Space Plan by introducing materials and finish concepts, and identifying the infrastructure and/or engineering systems required to implement the desired program.
2. We provide a 100% Schematic Development Set shall be submitted for pricing exercise as well as client review and approval.
3. Wolcott shall work with the Cost Estimator (WA’s consultant) exercise by answering questions or providing suggestions to align with the project goals as necessary. We will also revise the design intent should the pricing review info
a. WA will provide vibe images to illustrate the use further and establish a common language for the general look and feel.
4. We will review the pricing document with engineering consultants to get narrative documents to complement the architectural pricing plan. This narrative shall be provided to the Cost Estimator as well.
5. In an effort to understand the existing conditions and determine what might be saved for the proposed improvement (i.e. existing ceiling systems, lighting fixtures, power/data outlets, etc.), WA may include adding alternate finish specifications in the Pricing Plan to separate the SCVTV ‘s “base need” requirements versus the “alternate wish” requirements.
6. WA identify areas within the specialized design feature and advise on holding an allowance for these areas.
7. WA may include add alternate finish specifications in the Pricing Plan to separate the Client’s “base need” requirements versus the “alternate wish” requirements.
DESIGN DOCUMENTATION:
1. Based on the approved Schematic Space Plan and program and budget, WA will develop conceptual design ideas that align win the materials, lighting and furniture and equipment determined in the Schematic Design Phase descriptions and budget.
2. WA will review the base building conditions along with the desired design to determine if additional information (i.e. existing structural, MEP criteria) are needed to develop the space.
PROJECT
APPROACH CONT.
3. WA will provide (3) three interior 3D renderings for design review to convey the ideas. • Additional renderings are $2,700 per rendering
4. WA will provide (2) two options for finishes and furniture that comply with the Visioning exercises.
5. WA will work with SCVTV ‘s furniture dealers if already established, if they do not, WA will suggest furniture vendors or dealers best suited to comply with the programming, budgetary vision goals along with the approved Design Development presentation.

CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
Wolcott Architecture (WA) understands the importance of consistency throughout a project. The team assigned to your project stays with it from start to finish. This approach ensures consistency and strong client communications throughout the project lifecycle. We believe this increases the quality of each project because the team is invested in SCVTV ‘s objectives and can adapt to nuances that occur throughout the delivery phases. The firm structure is comprised of 5 teams led by a Project Manager and ranges from 4-8 people per team. Our team consists of Architects, Interior Designers, and Job Captains involved in the project from pre-design (i.e. site surveys, programming, and due diligence) through construction administration and project closeout. Our team also coordinates with the various design consultants needed to complete the project. Our teams are supported by several in-house experts, such as senior technical architectural design leads. We have included resumes of our Management and Studio Leadership team that highlight their expertise.
QUALITY CONTROL
Wolcott has in-house technical leads with extensive experience with quality control and constructability reviews. Our leads are brought in to help review scope, advise on approach, and provide information and feedback to ensure the project meets design criteria. Additionally, they help design technical details or provide specifications to meet the project’s needs.
Wolcott is fully proficient in both Revit and AutoCAD. Utilization of BIM technology is essential to interacting with the entire design team, owners and PM’s for efficiency and best practices. WA also uses Construction Management applications, such as Procore, for tracking and managing the construction process.
From the technical side, the in-house technical leads are used in various ways: from developing the details or specifications on their own to providing heavy oversight to others on the team as required. The technical leads have over 25 years of experience and ensure we are approaching constructability in the most efficient way without compromising the project’s design intent. Our design leads will accompany project designers and job captains in the field to review and advise on the approach and will provide hands-on assistance as required. This approach allows us to be nimble with their expertise, utilizing their expertise across all teams as needed.
We will also confer with Design Consultants, and the Contractor to determine the best approach to achieve the conceptual design. For example, if a solution proposed by a Vendor is cost-effective and can minimize construction time, we will review this information and provide a report to the Client and the Contractor as an alternative to traditional building construction.
Wolcott has a four-tiered process to ensure that our projects meet quality assurance goals. Those steps include:
1. Project Lead and Senior Architect (Technical Lead) review at set benchmarks during the Construction Documents phase.
2. Team/Studio QAQC Review: When the project is ready to be issued for Building Plan Check, the team conducts an internal QAQC with a 16-page checklist that ensures the set is coordinated and has the relevant information required to build the project. The Job Captain picks up these redlines and asks any questions if needed.
3. Firm QAQC Review: After the Team/Studio review and redlines are complete, the drawings set goes to a different team for a peer review. They use the same checklist and review the prior redlines to make sure they were picked up, as well as double-checked.
4. Final Review: Goes to a Wolcott Principal, who stamps the drawings, and reviews again for relevant project coordination and code issues.
COST CONTROLS
Wolcott Architecture has several methods and stages to provide upfront and transparent communication with the Client to ensure the design remains on budget.
Pre-Design Phase:
1. We conduct a meeting with the Client key stakeholders before any work has begun to review budget and scope to ensure the two align. The goal is to clearly communicate project goals and budgetary requirements.
2. We discuss if a contingency should be established within the budget to account for unforeseen conditions in the field. To be clear, not all projects warrant a contingency, and the contingency will be included within the overall budget number.
3. We establish who will be providing pricing reviews and verify their schedule complies with the Schedule provided in the RFP. We will expand on the project schedule to further develop a deliverable & review schedule with these pricing reviews.
4. We walk the site to identify any areas that could cause budgetary issues and provide a report on these areas that might affect the scope or budget.
5. We re-review the budget with the Client to ensure it aligns with field conditions.
6. We advise the Client on scope changes to ensure that the budget stays on track while maintaining their overall goals for the project.
Design Field Verification:
1. We prepare plans based on programming requirements and Base Building Drawings.
2. We develop drawings, sketches, design criteria for selected projects, etc., as required, to convey the Schematic design intent to the Client.
3. We present documents for approval to proceed to Design Development.
PROJECT
APPROACH CONT.
Design Documentation and Construction Documentation Phases:
1. We provide plans for budgetary reviews by the Contractor (as a pre-construction service) and/or Cost Estimator. These benchmark deliverables are established at the Pre-design Phase.
2. We review the Cost Estimates and advise the Client and Project Manager on any issues.
3. We include a specific amount of time in our Base Services to commit to Value Engineering in the Design Development Stage to capture changes to the scope if required. We will develop the Construction Documents based on approved Design Development drawings and budget.
4. We actively engage with the Client, Project Manager and Contractor to review contingency amounts throughout all these phases. If the project has an extensive demolition scope, we advise that the contingency be kept at the full amount until demolition is completed to capture any unforeseen areas that could affect the general scope and/or project goals.
Bidding Phase:
1. If a Contractor is not on board, we assist the ownership in selecting a contractor by providing bid documents, reviewing bid documents and advising on areas that do not align with Cost Estimator / General Contractor budget line items.
2. We will attend two (2) bidding meetings to verify the scope of work and make recommendations and provide one (1) comprehensive bid RFI response in the base fees.
3. If a Contractor was already on board prior to this phase, we ask them to conduct bids on Sub Consultants and provide both us and Client on the bidding status and the award of the work.
4. We will update the drawings if needed and issue an Issue for Construction Set with the updated information.
Construction Phase:
1. We conduct a construction kickoff meeting with Contractors and walk the site to review areas of the project.
If there are demo areas, we revisit the site after the demo to verify any existing conditions that could not be reviewed prior to the demo.
2. We review the Contractor project’s budget, schedule, and work complete. As the Architect of Record, we would sign off on the Certificate of Completion as required.
CLARIFICATIONS
& EXCLUSIONS
ARCHITECTURAL CLARIFICATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
1. Project Management - WA assumes an Independent Project Manager shall manage the Schedule and Budget on SCVTVC ‘s behalf. WA will coordinate with the Project Manager as required by reviewing and commenting on both of these.
2. Consultant Coordination & Landlord Review—WA’s fees include coordinating with the Landlord’s approval process and with the following consultants: Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Structural, Fire-Life Safety, IT, Security, and typical AV/low-voltage Consultants for conference rooms found in typical office work. Coordination with the Client’s consultant for the sound studio is also included. • Consultant fees are not included in the fees provided in this RFP response. • If additional consultants are required, additional fees may apply for coordination.
3. Permit Processing – WA assumes that the Client or Project Manager shall hire a Permit Consultant to shepherd the permitting processes through the necessary building departments. Wolcott can contract a Permit Consultant and bill it as a reimbursable expense if needed. This cost is not included in the fees provided in this RFP response.
4. Permit Fees – Permit Fees are not included in the current reimbursable expenses.
5. Value Engineering – WA relies on the accuracy of the Pricing Plans developed in the Schematic Design Phase to develop Design Documentation and advises that a contingency be provided to capture fluctuating construction market conditions. Once the project is fully bid (bought out), the contingency can be reduced (or applied to part of the budget). However, WA advises that part of the contingency should remain on the project for the Construction administration phase.
• WA will issue a final construction set to capture minor refinements needed to align the budget. Major construction approaches and/or scope changes may require additional fees.
6. Permit Processing services: WA can provide permit processing services for an additional fee. Depending on the location and building conditions, WA may recommend utilizing the services of an Independent Permit Consultant.
Professional plan check consultants have extensive interactions with building department staff that may often give them access to more favorable appointments. The consultant’s personal relationships with plan checkers and building department staff can also assist in resolving bureaucratic issues. Permit Consultant Fees, if managed by WA, are charged as a reimbursable expense.
• As part of the base fees, WA will provide plan check process services by providing the drawings and specifications to the Permit Consultant / Client / Client’s Designated Agent, who will then use this information to apply for those permits and approvals typically required by law for completion of the Project.
All plan check/ permit fees payable to an issuing authority shall be paid directly by the Client unless otherwise agreed in this Agreement. It is assumed the Project will be reviewed according to administrative- level planning and building department procedures.
7. Construction Administration – WAI assumes that the General Contractor shall use a Project Management Platform (i.e., ProCore) to manage the Construction administration process. Please note this reduces the coordination time on our end when shuffled the paperwork back and forth between the different consultants. If no Project Management Platform is used, and WA is expected to manage this, additional fees for Construction Administration time may be required.
8. Environmental Graphic Design & Artwork design or procurement is not included in the Fee response.
9. Furniture: The following tasks are not included in the fees at this time • Coordination and specifications for furniture mock-ups, • Inventory and documentation of existing furniture for reuse • If the Client requires shopping of non-commercial “retail oriented” sites or manufacturers, WAI may request an additional service on an hourly basis.
10. Design Restrooms, Core and Shell Improvements, and Interconnecting Stairs are not included at this time— please note that we do not anticipate this is required for a project of this size.
11. Fees assume that we will be provided CAD backgrounds or Revit model. WA will verify these plans in the field for accuracy.
MEP CLARIFICATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
1. There are not anticipated to be any envelope modifications as part of this project.
2. Project specifications shall be provided as a drawing spec

STRUCTURAL CLARIFICATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
1. It is assumed that as-built structural drawings of the existing structure will be provided by the owner prior to starting the design phase.
2. Alterations to the existing buildings are considered incidental and will not require a full building analysis.
3. Interior partition and ceiling details will be shown on the architect’s drawings.
4. It is assumed that major MEP upgrades are not expected.
5. It is assumed the retrofit of the existing framing is limited to the roof framing above the sound stage only.
Retrofit of existing columns, walls, and foundations is not expected. If required, strengthening of the existing columns, walls, and foundations will be considered an expanded scope and can be provided as an additional service.
6. Design of gravity and seismic supports for MEP utilities (pipes, HVAC ductwork, etc.) is outside of the scope of work; it is assumed that such design services will be specified by the MEP and/or architectural drawings to be provided by the General Contractor so as to allow for maximum flexibility during construction.
7. Effort associated with unforeseen conditions discovered during construction, such as unknown or abandoned utilities, that lead to design changes will be billed at our current hourly rates.

Wolcott provided design and project management services for WSL’s relocation to El Segundo. Unique spaces designed for WSL included edit bays and a broadcasting room for global events. Updates also involved enlarging the server room and coordinating with the IT team to meet high equipment demands. We designed branding opportunities throughout the suite to give the space WSL’s unique fingerprint. With a limited budget for the build and FFE, we creatively reused WSL’s existing furniture, integrating it intentionally into the new space. Economical yet impactful branding applications maximized the budget’s effectiveness.
Completed in March 2024.
