Common use of Schematic design documentation Clause in Contracts

Schematic design documentation. Designer shall meet regularly and as necessary with agents of the Awarding Authority and the User Agency, shall update and refine items submitted previously during the Study/Schematic Design Phase, shall provide a schematic design in compliance with M.G.L. c. 7C , ss.59 and 60 and shall provide the following schematic design level documentation which shall include and incorporate Awarding Authority and User Agency comments: (a) Building Information Model with the Level of Development specified in the BIM Guidelines for Design and Construction, drawings, concept sketches, three dimensional representations, and specifications; (b) a building code analysis; (c) an environmental assessment; (d) a preliminary life cycle cost analysis evaluating the short-term and long-term costs and technical feasibility of using alternate technologies to provide, lighting, heat, water heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, gas or electricity. The Designer shall calculate the life-cycle costs in accordance with assumptions and requirements set forth in M.G.L. c. 7C s. 29 and c. 149 s. 44M and the current DCAMM Designers Procedures Manual and, if requested by the Awarding Authority, shall coordinate with the Department of Energy Resources regarding the life cycle cost analysis; (e) a summary of applicable public utility incentive programs as determined by the Awarding Authority and a plan for implementation or inclusion of incentives; (f) an analysis of the design's compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act/Massachusetts Architectural Access Board requirements; (g) a space measurement analysis for the design which shall verify that the sum of all program floor areas in the Project plus all other floor areas in the Project equal the Gross Floor Area of the Project; (h) at least two Construction Cost Estimates for the design in Uniformat II Level 2 format with aggregated unit rates and quantities supporting each item and verified as accurate and complete by the cost estimator and/or Owner's Project Manager , if any, employed by the Awarding Authority; (i) signage and wayfinding graphically coordinated with the User Agency and the general building requirements, including, without limitation, all signage and wayfinding required by applicable building codes, cautionary signage, signage relative to exterior parking, loading and building areas, interior directories, department names, hours of operation, room names and numbers, and any signage required for American with Disabilities Act; (j) a summary comparing the schematic plans, specifications and Estimated Construction Cost of the design to the Program and Certified Study requirements and an explanation for any deviation therefrom.
