Common use of DETAILED SCOPE Clause in Contracts

DETAILED SCOPE. The Scope of Work that follows details the individual tasks and deliverables for the PROJECT. The individual (or sub-) tasks are grouped according to the phases of work as follows: • Task 100 – Preliminary Engineering, Evaluation and Design • Task 200 – Final Design • Task 300 – Bid Phase Services • Task 400 – Engineering Services During Construction • Task 500 – Start-up and Commissioning Services This section delineates the scope of basic services for the PROJECT. Task 100 – Preliminary Engineering, Evaluation, and Design Task 101 – Project Kick-off and Administration ENGINEER will complete the following activities / develop the following items as part of project planning and set-up activities: • Set-up (i.e. project budget / financials, work plan, and baseline for earned value tool) • Subconsultant agreements • Invoicing and activity report templates • Project Management and Quality Plan (PMP / QMP) with baseline schedule • Health & Safety Plan (H&SP) (for ENGINEER’s staff and subconsultants only) • Risk Register for ENGINEER’s internal use; ENGINEER will provide review and input for the PROJECT Risk Register to be developed and maintained by the PM/CM) • Communication tools for ENGINEER’s internal use (i.e. meeting / workshop scheduling and tracking, decision log, change log, and action item tracking) The PMP/QMP will outline the project goals and objectives, scope of work, baseline schedule, support tools, communications protocols, and quality review plan. The quality review plan will incorporate the approach for pointedly engaging technical advisors and specialty expertise in the early phases of the preliminary engineering and development. Project Meeting #1 (Preliminary Engineering and Design Kick-off Meeting) will be held with AWU and PM/CM to confirm key elements of the PMP/QMP, project scope objectives, baseline schedule, understand stakeholders and influence, and to set the proposed agenda for Project Meeting #2 (Team Chartering Session). Throughout project execution, ENGINEER will conduct monitoring and control activities to track project progress and develop monthly invoices with project activity reports for submittal to AWU. Activity reports will document activities completed during the previous period, planned activities for the following month, key decisions made, needed decisions, and decision-related / critical path action items. For this task, up to nine (9) months is assumed for project administration during preliminary engineering, evaluation, and design. Project administration during final design is included in Task 201. • Project Meeting # 1 – Preliminary Engineering and Design Kick-off • Meeting agenda and summary (.pdf format) • PMP / QMP with baseline schedule (.pdf format) • Monthly Invoices with Activity Report (including updated project schedule) The PM/CM will provide the ENGINEER with its previously collected AWU information and data for the PBWTP as compiled and categorized for the WTRIO Master Plan. The information and data will include PBWTP record drawings as well as the WTRIO Master Plan process calculation spreadsheet (in .xls format), newly developed process design criteria (i.e. pumping system curves), and any equipment preferences. It is assumed these information and data already include analyses regarding various design requirements such as chemical storage and feed capacity, process pipe sizing requirements, and high service pumping requirements. ENGINEER will review the provided information and data to identify any gaps and develop and submit a data needs summary to document information and data received and to obtain initial information and data for review. The initial transfer of information and data from the PM/CM and ENGINEER’s summary will be completed prior to Project Meeting #1 to facilitate a discussion of available information and to confirm previous work completed as part of the WTRIO Master Plan. The level of effort for this task assumes AWU and the PM/CM will collect and assemble data for delivery to the ENGINEER in electronic format. • Data needs summary (i.e. confirmation of data and information received with gap analysis) ENGINEER will conduct Project Meeting #2 (a 2-part workshop) with AWU and the PM/CM to discuss previous work, high-level concepts and alternatives, and to establish initial “boundary conditions” (i.e. site use, project cost, and schedule) for the preliminary engineering evaluations. The second part of this workshop will include interactive exercises to discuss the project goals and drivers, identify and establish critical success factors, gain stakeholder input on which factors are most important, consolidate these factors into evaluation criteria categories, and assign weights to the criteria. The criteria and weights will be used in evaluating and selecting alternatives for design and implementation. The overarching workshop objective will be to confirm decision support processes and decision points. ENGINEER will develop a brief technical memorandum (TM) that summarizes the established “boundary conditions”, goals and drivers, evaluation criteria, criteria weights, and decision support processes. • Project Meeting #2 – Team Chartering / Goals, Drivers, & Evaluation Criteria Setting • Meeting agenda and summary (.pdf format) • TM#1 – Project Evaluation Criteria and Decision Support Processes Task 104 – Confirm Design Criteria ENGINEER will summarize and confirm facility design criteria with AWU and the PM/CM upon completing Task 102 activities. For this task, it is assumed criteria set forth in the WTRIO Master Plan, and as modified further by AWU and the PM/CM, will be used as criteria for design. ENGINEER will review this information and refine and augment the design criteria to set the basis of design for each of the major project components. This effort focuses on criteria that impact facility and equipment sizing. Further definition of criteria for materials of construction and related details will be established as part of PDR development under subsequent tasks. ENGINEER will also conduct an initial code review to establish governing codes and regulations that will drive design and construction, classify the facilities, and identify permitting requirements. ENGINEER will develop a brief TM that captures the code review and design criteria in tabular format. Project Meeting #3 will be held to confirm criteria as outlined in the TM. • Project Meeting #3 – Confirm Design Criteria • Meeting agenda and summary (.pdf format) • TM#2 – Project Design Criteria, Governing Codes, and Permitting Requirements Task 105 – Evaluate Alternatives The level of effort for this task has been determined based on the assumptions noted in the following sub-tasks. The assumptions were developed based on prior discussion with AWU and the PM/CM. ENGINEER will evaluate alternatives and their associated costs to facilitate selection for detailed design and implementation. As part of each sub-task, ENGINEER will conduct an internal “concept review” with its technical advisors and team members who bring specialized expertise in each area of the PROJECT. The intent of the review is to discuss outcomes from Task 101 through 104 and alternatives previously discussed with AWU and the PM/CM. Prior experience and lessons learned will be applied with understanding of the project “boundary conditions” (per Task 103) to streamline alternatives and eliminate options that may not be practical, are unproven, or pose other risk such as constructability challenges or unknowns.
