Common use of Engineering Design Services Clause in Contracts

Engineering Design Services. For design projects, TKE will provide the following services to deliver a complete, bid ready design package (i.e. plans, specifications, and engineer’s estimate): • Oversee and ensure that all measures of the specific project’s scope of services are completed in a timely and professional manner with an emphasis on providing MSWD with a high-quality project. • Prepare and maintain a project schedule identifying the critical path for expeditious project completion. • Provide progress reports monthly or as deemed required. • Conduct and attend design kick-off meeting with all stakeholders. • Schedule and conduct Project Development Team (PDT) meetings and other necessary meetings; prepare agendas and minutes; and distribute to all applicable entities (not just attendees) within three (3) working days. • Obtain, review, and analyze available records. • Complete design surveying to obtain topographic mapping for the project. • Prepare base construction drawings. • Prepare preliminary design, typically consisting of selecting preferred alignments and identifying critical project constraints. • Identify the environmental impacts associated with the project. Prepare an exemption or engage our environmental subconsultant to prepare the appropriate level of environmental analysis. • Coordinate with our geotechnical subconsultant and prepare a full geotechnical evaluation for the project. • Meet with MSWD staff to discuss the project and receive comments. • Prepare 60% design drawings, with both plan and profile views, draft specifications, and preliminary engineer’s estimate. • Submit drawings to utility and other agencies that may have facilities affected by the project for review. • TKE will prepare and process any required permit applications. • Coordinate with MSWD to complete any utility verifications at critical interfaces. • 60% design review meeting with MSWD staff to receive comments and review other project requirements (i.e. environmental, geotechnical, utility conflicts, permitting, etc.). • Prepare 90% design drawings, specifications, and engineer’s estimate. • 90% design review meeting with MSWD staff to receive comments. • Prepare 100% design drawings, specifications, and engineer’s estimate. • After final review by MSWD staff, TKE will prepare and submit final bid documents to MSWD. • Resubmit final drawings to all agencies/utilities having underground facilities in the project area requesting that they verify their facilities are shown correctly and we will advise them of the project construction schedule. • Assist MSWD with project bidding, including attending pre-bid field walk and responding to RFIs, as required.
