Common use of ENGINEER'S SERVICES Clause in Contracts

ENGINEER'S SERVICES. A. Pre-Design/Schematic Design Phase. In consultation with the Owner, and in compliance with the Design Criteria for the Oregon Institute of Technology Projects provided by the Owner, the Engineer shall: i. generally, from the current concept, coordinate with design disciplines; ii. identify scale, placement, and orientation of Program Requirements; iii. identify applicable building codes, administrative, and permit processing requirements as relevant; iv. verify, by on-site inspection unless specifically stated otherwise by the Owner, existing conditions and systems, including but not necessarily limited to architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical systems, to confirm that these conditions and systems are of adequate condition and capacity to support the Work to be executed on the Project; v. in consultation with Consultant Team, Owner Representatives, and other designated persons, use all available information to evaluate the Program Requirements, and with appropriate data and graphics propose a series of improvements deemed necessary and desirable to satisfy the Program Requirements, including; space needs, budget, availability of utilities, effect of codes and ordinances, safety and energy requirements, handicapped access to all spaces, historical character of the building, etc.; vi. based on the revised Program Requirements, develop Schematic Design studies consisting of drawings, and other documents for the Owner’s approval; vii. provide documents suitable for submission to the City of Klamath Falls Plan Review; viii. assist the Owner to file the required documents for the approval of various governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Project; Owner shall pay for all required appeals and plan review fees; ix. prepare a comprehensive State Energy Efficiency Design (“SEED”) Analysis of the Project, provide all documentation required for a SEED Award to the Owner for the Project and provide all other Services for the Project that are required under the SEED Program of the State of Oregon Department of Energy, consistent with the requirements of ORS 276.900 through 276.915 and OAR 330-130-0010 through 330-130-0080, that are applicable to this phase of the Services. When completed, the Project shall exceed the State Building Code requirements for energy efficiency by 20% or more, and shall be a “model of energy efficiency” as that term is described in the above-referenced administrative rules; x. submit to the Owner an estimate, consistent with the requirements of Section I. F.4 above and prepared by an independent cost estimator, of the probable Direct Construction Cost of the Project based upon current area, volume or other appropriate unit costs, and compare and reconcile this independent cost estimate; xi. submit to the Owner the following documents, information and other data: 1. written report of the results of a Fire and Life Safety review with the City of Klamath Falls; 2. interior colors, materials and finishes recommendations; 3. a project schedule delineating the estimated time required for the Engineer to complete the Design Development and Construction Documents Phases of the Project; 4. recommendations by the Consultants (structural, mechanical, electrical) of the technical requirements necessary to implement the Program Requirements; 5. equivalent LEED scorecard; and 6. preliminary plans, elevations, and other drawings necessary to describe the entire scope of the Project. These drawings may be used for local municipal review and campus review; and xii. perform those design Services during this phase of the design for fine arts and crafts to be identified and incorporated into the Project, pursuant to the State of Oregon “1% For Art Program”, set forth in ORS 276.073 to 276.090, as amended, relating to acquisition of fine arts or crafts to be part of the Project and consisting of consultations with the Owner on selection of artwork, commissioning and/or completion of the artwork and integration with the overall design of the Project.
