Common use of Project Screening Clause in Contracts

Project Screening. After the project short-list, has been developed, the TEs and Program Specialists will perform a risk-based assessment of all projects using 10 risk areas of Complexity, Cost, Schedule, Urgency, Environmental & Stakeholders, Funding, Project Administration, Regional Significance, Corporate Actions, and Local Considerations and may be scored in the Missouri Screening Tool (MST). The TEs and Program Specialists will evaluate all 10 risk areas as Low, Medium, or Elevated, based upon the resulting analysis of each specific risk area. Given both the rural and highly urbanized makeup of Missouri’s program, some project risk criteria may be dependent upon the specific district being reviewed. The risk tool will guide the evaluation process: Projects identified in the STIP as Design-Build are not required to be PoDIs; but, the TE may want to review certain risk aspects of the Design-Build Process project. Projects funded under the BUILD or INFRA programs are automatically designated as PoDIs, as are any designated Major Projects.
