Preliminary Design Conference Clause Samples

The Preliminary Design Conference clause establishes a formal meeting between the parties to review and discuss the initial design concepts for a project. Typically, this conference occurs early in the project timeline and involves key stakeholders, such as the client, design professionals, and sometimes contractors, to ensure alignment on design objectives, requirements, and constraints. By facilitating early communication and feedback, this clause helps prevent misunderstandings, streamlines the design process, and reduces the risk of costly revisions later in the project.
Preliminary Design Conference. The Engineer shall prepare and submit a preliminary Design Summary Report (DSR) to the State for review and approval and shall attend an initial Kick-Off Meeting to establish and agree on fundamental aspects and concepts and to establish the basic features and design criteria for the project. This meeting will be coordinated with any adjacent projects to ensure continuity.

Preliminary Design Conference. The Engineer shall develop the roadway design criteria based on the controlling factors specified by the State (i.e. 4R, 3R, 2R, or special facilities), by use of the funding categories, design speed, functional classification, roadway class and any other set criteria as set forth in PS&E Preparation Manual, Roadway Design Manual, Bridge Design Manual, Hydraulic Design Manual, and other deemed necessary State approved manuals. The Engineer shall prepare and submit a preliminary geometric Design Summary Report (DSR) along with a Design Criteria Table (DCT) to the State for review and approval. In accordance with the State’s Project Development Process Manual, the Engineer, in cooperation with the State, shall plan, attend and document a Design Concept Conference (DCC) to be held prior to the 30 percent milestone submittal. This meeting will be coordinated with any adjacent projects to ensure continuity. The conference will provide for a brainstorming session in which decision makers, stakeholders (e.g., affected property owners, elected officials, or businesses) and technical personnel (e.g., both State and Engineer technical staff) may discuss and agree on: 1. Roadway and drainage design parameters 2. Engineering and environmental constraints 3. Project development schedule 4. Other issues as identified by the State 5. Identify any Design Exceptions and waivers
