Common use of Construction Engineering Clause in Contracts

Construction Engineering. As part of construction engineering, we will provide the following services: ◊ Prepare the agenda and attend the preconstruction meeting ◊ Attend monthly construction progress meetings ◊ Engineering support and responses to contractor questions regarding the construction ◊ Review of technical documentation ◊ Review of construction administration, contract modifications and documentation ◊ Lead construction closeout and punch lists ◊ Prepare record drawings ◊ Tetra Tech’s Project Manager will be responsible to follow all parts of the construction. The Construction Manager will assist in preparing paper work and tasks unique to construction. The preconstruction meeting provides overview and detailed project information to the entire construction project team, including the owner, contractor, engineer, utilities, and other key stakeholders. The meeting sets up a chain of command for addressing issues that will occur in the field. The ▇▇▇ Arbor Building Department may attend if City- issued permits will be required for the work. The meeting helps underscore the owner’s expectations of the contractor, regarding general and specific constraints, and how the owner will be involved to help resolve issues that may arise. Monthly progress meetings will be held at a location designated by the City. Tetra Tech’s offices are located next to the well field and would provide an ideal location for these meetings. The purpose of the meetings is to review progress to date, update and review the construction schedule, discuss concerns, and resolve construction issues. Meeting minutes will be prepared and distributed to attendees and become a part of the construction records. Coordinating with City Departments is critical to maintaining construction progress and successful resolution of issues during construction. We envision most tasks on the project can be completed with part-time observation. Given most of the work is above ground , the completed work can be observed during and immediately after it has been completed to ensure compliance with the contract documents. Key tasks that we suggest we be present during work include concrete pours, motor installation, and deliveries of key equipment (to ensure it is not dropped or otherwise handled in a manner to affect performance). Tetra Tech’s office adjacent to the project site make it very efficient for Tetra Tech to work in this manner. It also makes it efficient for Tetra Tech’s resident professional to bring the designer to the project site to observe specialty work or troubleshoot start-up issues. Our resident professionals will keep a daily log of activities completed by the contractor.
