PLANNING STUDY Clause Samples
The PLANNING STUDY clause defines the requirements and procedures for conducting a preliminary analysis or assessment before the main project work begins. Typically, this clause outlines the scope of the study, the responsibilities of the parties involved, and the deliverables expected, such as reports or recommendations based on the findings. Its core function is to ensure that all parties have a clear understanding of the project's feasibility, risks, and requirements before committing significant resources, thereby reducing uncertainty and supporting informed decision-making.
PLANNING STUDY. 4.1 The Contractor shall prepare an implementation planning study in accordance with clause 15.6 of Part 1 of the Agreement. 1
PLANNING STUDY. 15.6.1 Within the time specified in the Order and prior to the commencement of a project to be implemented under a Contract, the Contractor must complete an implementation planning study.
15.6.2 The implementation planning study must meet the objectives specified in the Order which may include:
(a) the Contractor’s assessment of the scope and complexity of the project;
(b) required Deliverables;
(c) resources required (including any resources to be made available by the Customer);
(d) development of a Project Implementation and Payment Plan or a Service Level Agreement as relevant; or
(e) any other requirements specified in the Order.
PLANNING STUDY. OCWD has retained a consultant to prepare a “Planning Study” to evaluate the Producers’ water systems, any of their Water Producing Facilities impacted by PFAS (“Impacted ▇▇▇▇▇”), and potential locations for construction of PFAS Treatment Systems for Impacted ▇▇▇▇▇. OCWD shall cause the consultant to actively consult with Producers in connection with preparation of the Planning Study. OCWD shall cause the consultant to provide a final Planning Study report to OCWD and Producers concurrently.
PLANNING STUDY. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will conduct a conceptual design study with the ultimate goal of developing a project definition document for the ARFF Training Building for GOAA. A ROM cost estimate, based on the final concept, will be developed for use by GOAA for capital/project planning purposes.
PLANNING STUDY. The Engineer shall conduct a planning study that includes the development of improvement concepts to meet current roadway design standards as established by the latest editions of the State Roadway Design Manual, American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets, State Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways, Streets, and Bridges, Highway Capacity Manual – Transportation Research Board, AASHTO – A Policy on Design Standards Interstate System, and other associated State manuals, as applicable. The planning study is intended to: • Establish the need and purpose for the project. • Develop Environmental Constraints Map to characterize the environmental setting. • Develop and screen improvement options to determine which ones should be advanced for further detailed schematic design and environmental study. • Develop a preliminary (30%) schematic design layout of the ultimate roadway configuration. • Establish the right-of-way needs for the ultimate roadway configuration. The Engineer shall develop improvement concepts including: • Improvements shifted to either side of the current US 290 alignment in an effort to minimize impacts to existing and active development. • Review and analysis of intersection improvements with major cross roads (maximum of 6 intersections).
