CONSTRUCTION CQA. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx will provide CQA observation during construction in accordance with the approved CQA plan developed as part of the bid documents. The Resident Observer(s) will perform the CQA monitoring duties described in the CQA plan. One Resident Observer will be on site during critical construction activities. During construction, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx assumes that the working times are 10 hours per day up to 50 hours per week. The Resident Observer(s) will coordinate with the Contractor and Contract Administrator regarding weekly activities and adjust effort accordingly. The Resident Observer(s) will coordinate testing schedules, attend progress meetings, and review preliminary draft pay requests. Soil or material testing is required to be performed by an independent third-party testing laboratory. Therefore, soil and material testing will be subcontracted to an appropriate testing firm. CQA testing will be monitored as part of the CQA activities. Testing costs are based on the testing required by the CQA Plan (including testing coordination and review and interpretation of testing results.)
CONSTRUCTION CQA. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx will provide CQA observation during construction in accordance with the approved CQA Plan developed as part of the bid documents. The RO(s) will perform the CQA monitoring duties described in the CQA Plan. We assumed some reduced RO hours during construction. These reduced hours are a result of the additional construction that will be performed on the roadway as part of the stormwater development construction. To reduce costs and support local business, we assume that some of the RO work will be performed by a local sub-consultant working with the Xxxxx Edmunds RO. We assumed that the Xxxxx Edmunds RO (Field Representative classification) will be onsite during construction (approximately 1,800 total hours over 8 months). If we exceed these assumed hours we will discuss how to proceed with the County. Our proposal is based on the senior RO (Senior Field Representative classification) working approximately 900 hours. If we exceed these assumed hours we will discuss how to proceed with the County. The RO(s) will coordinate with the Contractor and CA on weekly activities and adjust their effort accordingly. The RO(s) will complete daily observation reports (DOR), photograph daily activities, coordinate testing schedules, attend progress meetings, review preliminary Applications for Payment, and review the Contractor’s red-line, as-built drawings. An independent, third-party testing laboratory must test the geosynthetics. Therefore, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx will sub-contract the CQA geosynthetics testing to an appropriate testing firm. We will monitor CQA testing as part of the CQA activities. Testing costs are based on the testing required by the CQA Plan (including testing coordination and review and interpretation of testing results). Upon further evaluation, we determined that the third-party testing costs may be to provide some costs savings. However, we also needed to make some adjustments to the ODC costs during construction to allow our RO staff to meet their responsibilities during construction phase services. Deliverables: ▪ DORs and photos of activities. ▪ Comments on the Contractor’s red-line, as-built drawings. ▪ Copies of signed-and-sealed test results.
