The primary responsibilities of the Contract Administrator are to coordinate and communicate with CONTRACTOR and to manage and supervise execution and completion of the Scope of Services and the terms and conditions of this Agreement as set forth herein. In the administration of this Agreement, as contrasted with matters of policy, all parties may rely on the instructions or determinations made by the Contract Administrator; provided, however, that such instructions and determinations do not change the Scope of Services, and provided further that changes by the Contract Administrator which are expressly authorized by the Procurement Code (Chapter 21 of the Broward County Administrative Code) may be relied upon by the parties. 1.6 County Administrator - The administrative head of COUNTY pursuant to Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Broward County Charter. 1.7 County Attorney - The chief legal counsel for COUNTY who directs and supervises the Office of the County Attorney pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Broward County Charter. 1.8 County Business Enterprise or "CBE" - is a small business located in Broward County, Florida, which meets the criteria and eligibility requirements of Broward County’s CBE Program and must be certified by Broward County’s Small Business Development Division. 1.9 Notice To Proceed - A written notice to proceed with the Project issued by the Contract Administrator. 1.10 Project - The Project consists of the services described in Article 2. 1.11 Project Manager - A designee of the Contract Administrator having day-to-day administrative and managerial responsibility for the Project.

CONTRACTOR shall provide all services as set forth in Exhibit "A" including all necessary, incidental, and related activities and services required by the Scope of Services and contemplated in CONTRACTOR's level of effort. 2.2 CONTRACTOR and COUNTY acknowledge that the Scope of Services does not delineate every detail and minor work task required to be performed by CONTRACTOR to complete the Project. If, during the course of the performance of the services included in this Agreement, CONTRACTOR determines that work should be performed to complete the Project which is in the CONTRACTOR's opinion outside the level of effort originally anticipated, whether or not the Scope of Services identifies the work items, CONTRACTOR shall notify Contract Administrator in writing in a timely manner before proceeding with the work. If CONTRACTOR proceeds with said work without notifying the Contract Administrator, said work shall be deemed to be within the original level of effort, whether or not specifically addressed in the Scope of Services. Notice to Contract Administrator does not constitute authorization or approval by COUNTY to perform the work. Performance of work by CONTRACTOR outside the originally anticipated level of effort without prior written COUNTY approval is at CONTRACTOR's sole risk. 2.3 COUNTY and CONTRACTOR acknowledge that Exhibit "A" is for the first portion of services related to the Project and that additional negotiations will be required for subsequent phases, principal on-site construction operations, or for additional services except as otherwise provided herein. The COUNTY and CONTRACTOR may negotiate additional scopes of services, compensation, time of performance, and other related matters for future phases of Project.

It is acknowledged and agreed by CONTRACTOR that these amounts are the maximum payable and constitute a limitation upon COUNTY's obligation to compensate CONTRACTOR for its services and expenses related to this Agreement.

Any such expenses shall be reviewed and approved by Contract Administrator prior to incurring such expenses.

CONSULANT’S use of this budget is described within the Professional Services Agreement and its Exhibit "A," Scope of Work, for this project. Preliminary Project Budget is subject to change at the Contract Administrator’s sole discretion.

These tasks form a complex web of interdependencies—with each task crucial to the overall success of the project. Organizing these tasks and the people assigned to perform them is a daunting challenge. A technique used often in the development of project schedules is called "Storyboarding." This technique can be used during the design phase, construction phase or at any other time during the project's life when a schedule is needed. It is most useful as a preliminary activity in the development of complex Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules. Storyboarding is a simplistic solution to a complex problem; that is, how to identify all the tasks that must be accomplished to meet project objectives. In most cases the end objectives are well defined; however, the plan to achieve those objectives remains vague and spread across various responsibilities. The "storyboard" attempts to identify all the tasks needed to obtain these objectives along with the interrelationships between these tasks. When developing schedules, and in particular a "storyboard" generated schedule, two major points must be followed: 1) The tasks must be monitorable, having a well-defined task with definable end results is a must. 2) The same tasks must have some level of accountability assigned to them. For each definable task, a person or organization must take ownership to the task. The key to any successful schedule development is cooperation. By viewing this process as a team function and stressing ownership in its development, a successful end product will result. The contents of the sections which follow should serve as a guide to anyone wishing to create a "storyboard" for their own projects or tasks. Setting up - Pre-Storyboard Meeting: If the storyboard is to be created for the first time on the project, it is very important that a meeting be held prior to the actual storyboarding meeting. At this meeting all the participants will have the storyboard process explained to them. Each participant will be given 3" x 5" colored index cards (See Fig. A). The color will vary with each participant, for example, the Owner will receive red cards, Consultant green, Contractor white, etc. (using a typical construction project scenario). The participants should include everyone who has anything to do with the project. Each card should have a specific activity, the time to complete the activity, the number of people required to complete it (manpower), what the preceding number must be before this one can start, and what activities following will be; in other words, the predecessor and successor to this activity. The reason for requesting resources is to allow resource analysis; that is, we want to make sure that the participants are staffing the project properly. Resource allocation to the activities is Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 4 Preliminary Scheduling Procedure Page 1 important, however, should the cards not include the required resources to perform that task, proceed with the storyboarding. Don't distract the process of developing the schedule for the lack of resource definition. Remember, the main objective is to develop a logical schedule, using definable and "monitorable" tasks that have a level of accountability assigned to each task. (It is important however, to point out to the participants who fail to assign resources that many task schedules fail due to inadequate or improper assignment of resources.) The card should be laid out as shown in Figure A. List next task that must be completed after this one List tasks that must be completed prior to this one Next Task Previous Task Task Duration List How Long (Days) this task will take to complete Figure A: Task Card Layout Resources List personnel, space, tools, or other special resources needed to complete this task Note that if this is the second or third time for a storyboarding session, you would just have to advise the participants that a new storyboarding meeting will occur and prepare for it like they did on the first one. Make sure to set the date for the storyrboarding so that everyone involved can be present. If this is a construction storyboard, you must try not to get into so much detail in one sitting as to stop the meeting with insignificant information. The best way is the simplest way. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 4 Preliminary Scheduling Procedure Page 2 Calendar Preparation: One of the first steps for the storyboarding is defining the total length of time this particular portion of work will be scheduled. One technique is to lay out on plain brown wrapping paper a calendar (as shown in Figure B) with each month approximately 36 inches in length. Depending on the amount of detail and size of the project, you can either use one or two widths of paper. Keep in January 36 Inches (Approx) February March Attach Calendar to Wall. Cards will be attached to this paper in their appropriate time sequenced order. Figure B: Calendar Layout mind when preparing this calendar that it will be attached to a wall in order to allow all participants to attach their activity cards to this paper. Another item to remember is that you must carry this back to your office so you do not want to make it so wide as to make it impossible to carry. The Storyboard - Who Starts It? After taping or thumbtacking the calendar to the wall and after a brief explanation of what the storyboard is, you are ready to start. It is important that there be one person who runs the show, usually the Schedulers or Project Manager. This person will answer questions and try to solve any problems that might occur during the storyboarding meeting. It is imperative that the person who takes charge of the proceeding should have knowledge of the Project being scheduled. Not having adequate knowledge of the Project will eventually show up in Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 4 Preliminary Scheduling Procedure Page 3 the dialogue that results during the development of the schedule. One way to start the storyboard is for the Contractor, Consultant or Contract Administrator (or other primary project taskholder) to put their cards on the calendar. This will force the other participants to speak up to protect their own interest. The key here is to invite the participants up to the calendar to lay out their portion of the work. Another method is to put on the calendar specific milestones. For instance, in the case of office construction, when does the Owner need occupancy, etc. Once these milestones are established, the other participants can step up to the calendar and fill in with their activity cards the work that has to be done to meet these milestones. You will find that once somebody has started the storyboard, the other members usually pitch in and want to get up and start doing their part to make the storyboard successful. Continue putting cards on the wall until all participants have none left to put up. We are now ready for the review process. Review Process (Storyboard Meeting): Once all the cards have been placed on the wall, take a break. While participants are taking a break, the Scheduler and the Project Manager will review by themselves the results of the storyboard. This time should be used to review what has been developed and which areas need elaboration or clarification. Upon returning from the break, the Scheduler will advise the participants as to any additional activities or any errors that might have occurred. Each participant should then present before the entire team the cards they have put on the wall. Participants should outline to the team what they have written down on their cards and how they see their portion of the work as taking place. If there are any changes to the storyboard, now is the time to make them. Advise the participants that it is their schedule, one that they will have to live with so it is in their best interest to watch closely how others are doing work that might have some impact on work that they have to do. The Scheduler or the Project Manager will set the date of the next meeting where the storyboard, which will be in the form of a time phased network, will be reviewed and agreed to. The participants will be given an opportunity to "buy in" to the schedule, stressing that it is a team process. At this time we also want to broad brush the total project before all the participants to keep them reminded of the end objective, or any other major milestones. Time Phase Network Preparation: The next step is for the Scheduler to develop the network from the storyboard. The method usually employed is time scale networks. The reasons for time scale are: 1. 2. 3. Always shows the flow of the activities in a logical manner. Shows quickly the critical path. Shows overlap of activities and density of activities at any given period of time. Review Process (After the Storyboard): At the next meeting, the Scheduler and Project Manager in charge of the Project will review with all the participants the schedule that was developed from the storyboard. Any adjustments to the schedule by the participants should be brought up now or the schedule will be understood to be Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 4 Preliminary Scheduling Procedure Page 4 accepted by all members. Once all the members agree to the schedule, we can then formally issue the project schedule. We can only stress that all participants should take ownership of their portion of the schedule. Only then do we find that cooperation to meet the objective is fully achieved. Summary: Keep in mind that as the Project progresses, the participants and the amount of detail changes. Therefore, the storyboard can be done at any phase of the schedule. The basic philosophy that we want to adhere to is a forward movement in our project planning; identifying key elements with a 90 to 120-day horizon in the future (and looking towards the end of the project). Getting more detail as the detail becomes available. The reason the storyboard works is because the input is provided from the people that are actually going to do the work. We, as the Schedulers and Project Managers, act as a medium to show and advise the project team on how we plan to meet the project objectives. We do not attempt to develop the schedule without the teams' input. We know from experience what should be on the cards at the storyboard, and it is up to us to advise the people who are participating in the storyboarding that we do know what the activities should be.

(B) Value engineering activities shall be performed concurrently and in conjunction with, and without delay to, the Consultant’s design activities. The services shall include VE evaluation, review and study of design documents (including the structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, and elements proposed for the building, site and other associated construction) prior to the Consultant’s completion of the Project’s schematic design documents, at the end of the Design Development Phase and at such stages as the Contract Administrator may direct. (C) VE services may include VE studies of items other than design documents. (D) CONTRACTOR shall be paid as the Agreement specifies for this effort, but shall not share in savings that may result from acceptance and use of VE Proposal’s by COUNTY. 1.02 Definitions: (A) “Life Cycle Cost," (LCC) as used in this article, is the sum of all costs over the useful life of a building, system or product. It includes the cost of design, construction, acquisition, operation, maintenance, and salvage (resale) value, if any. (B) "Value Engineering" (VE), as used in this article, means an organized effort to analyze the functions of systems, equipment, facilities, services and supplies for the purpose of achieving the essential functions at the lowest life cycle cost consistent with required performance, reliability, quality, and safety. (C) "Value Engineering Proposal," as used in this article, means, in connection with the Consultant’s Agreement, a change proposal developed by CONTRACTOR and its VE team. 1.03 Value Engineering Team (A) Not later than 20 days after receipt of the Notice To Proceed with Preconstruction Services from the Contract Administrator, CONTRACTOR shall identify and submit for the Contract Administrator’s approval a person who shall serve as the VE Team Coordinator and a list of VE team members and their respective resumes Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 1 representing the design and construction disciplines required to complete the VE study effort. Subsequent changes or substitutions to the approved VE team shall be submitted in writing to the Contract Administrator for approval. (B) The VE Team Coordinator (VETC) may be one of CONTRACTOR’s personnel or a consultant to CONTRACTOR and shall be responsible for pre-study preparations, assembly of required study materials, coordination of team members, conducting and providing administration of team meetings. The VETC shall produce, audit, reproduce, sign, and distribute the final VE report and each VE Proposal. 2.01 CONTRACTOR’s Preparation for VE Workshop(s): (A) A coordination meeting will be held between the Contract Administrator, Consultant, CONTRACTOR, and Value Engineering Team Coordinator (VETC). 1. The VETC shall conduct this meeting prior to each VE Workshop. The meeting is intended to promote a common level of understanding about the objectives and constraints of the VE workshop, establish a productive working environment, confirm the schedule of events, and coordinate the handling of material. 2. Items discussed during the meeting shall include the availability and format of technical and cost data, agenda of the VE workshop, processing of the VE recommendations, plus the date, location, and other logistical arrangements for the VE workshop. (B) Accumulation of the project’s technical and cost data. 1. The Contract Administrator will assist in supplying project data to the VETC at least two weeks before the VE workshop to allow sufficient time for review and development of the VE study models. The technical data consists of the functional space program, engineering reports, design calculations, and all current drawings and specifications. The cost data shall consist of any project cost estimates, project budgets, and/or any special cost studies that may have been produced by the Contract Administrator, Consultant or CONTRACTOR. 2. Material Required for the Concept (Schematic Design) Workshop: The purpose of the Concept Workshop at the schematic design stage is to establish basic design approaches such as building massing, functional relationships, space allocations and schematic layouts. In addition, basic building systems concepts should be established as well as any special requirements including environmental, safety, and historic preservation. The Contract Administrator, assisted by the Consultant and CONTRACTOR, will endeavor to provide the following materials to the VETC in preparation for this workshop: a. b. c. d. Initial phasing/scheduling plans Functional space program Gross and occupiable area analysis Drawings, including block layouts, building siting, preliminary elevations, and sections e. Narrative descriptions of major building systems and basis of design f. Renderings, perspectives, and model photographs Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 2 g. h. i. j. k. l. m. Special studies, statistical reviews, and calculations Boring logs, soil reports or preliminary analysis Preliminary narrative specifications Cost estimate and cost studies Utility rate guidelines Planned building operating profile Utilities available to site 3. Material Required for the Design Development Phase Workshop: The purpose of Design Development Workshop is to establish final layouts and appearance of the facility and to determine major building system selections. Most special requirements should be finalized or under study and approaching completion. The Contract Administrator, assisted by the Consultant and CONTRACTOR, will endeavor to provide the following materials to the VETC in preparation for this workshop: a. Drawings including architectural, civil/site, structural, mechanical and electrical b. Preliminary specifications c. Preliminary phasing/scheduling plans d. Design calculations e. Boring logs and soil reports f. Gross and occupiable areas analysis g. Utility rates h. Energy studies i. Life cycle cost studies j. Building operating profile k. Construction cost estimate l. Construction market survey (C) Providing logistical arrangements for the VE workshop. 1. Once the VE team(s) selection is finalized, the VETC shall distribute or otherwise make available selected technical and cost data to each team member for a brief review prior to the workshop. The pre-workshop review should typically allow for 2 to 4 hours per team member. This review is intended to briefly familiarize the participant with the project. 2. The VETC shall coordinate with the Contract Administrator to select and reserve a space for the workshop meeting. The VE workshop shall be located at a site within a COUNTY-owned facility or other facility with prior approval of the Contract Administrator. Prior to a VE Workshop, the VETC shall visit the meeting location with a representative of the Contract Administrator to ensure the adequacy of the meeting space. 3. The VETC shall ensure that VE team members have visited the Project site prior to a scheduled VE Workshop. 4. The VETC shall arrange for a laptop or other computer with appropriate software and peripherals that may be required during the VE workshop. VETC may inquire as to the Contract Administrator’s ability to provide limited computer support. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 3 5. Flip charts, markers, and easels shall be provided by the VETC. (D) Preparation of initial cost, energy, and life cycle models. 1. Cost Model: The VE Cost Model is a study tool presenting both estimated and target construction costs distributed by subsystem or functional area. Target costs shall be determined during the VE workshop and shall represent the VE team’s estimate of the least cost to perform the function of each subsystem or functional area. Large differences between estimated costs and target costs shall be identified as areas with potential for cost savings or value improvement. 2. Energy Model: The VETC shall assemble an energy model for the VE team to use in a similar manner as the cost models. Energy models shall present displays of energy consumption for the facility subsystem or functional area and shall typically express energy in units of KWH per year. Target energy consumption estimates shall be assigned to each subsystem or functional area by the VE team during the VE workshop and represent the least possible energy consumption for each subsystem or functional area based on historical energy data and the VE team’s experience. The energy model is not intended to provide a precise projection of energy demand or cost. The energy model’s primary purpose is the rapid identification of energy intensive areas that offer a high potential for energy reductions and cost savings. Large differences between estimated energy costs and target energy costs shall be identified as areas with potential for cost savings or value improvement. 3. Life Cycle Cost Model: The VETC shall assemble a life cycle cost (LCC) model to illustrate the total cost of ownership of the new facility. The LCC model shall provide a complete cost picture and shall serve as a baseline for the VE team’s determinations of the cost impacts of VE recommendations. The interest or discount rate used to prepare LCC models should be an appropriate value established by the Contract Administrator, the Consultant, and the VETC. (E) Distribution of the technical and cost data to VE team members. 3.01 The VE Workshop (A) The VE workshops are the major activity during the VE study and shall be conducted by the VE Team to achieve the following goals: 1. To provide an organized team approach that allows the VE team to analyze a project by quickly identifying high cost to worth areas and selecting alternatives which minimize costs while maximizing quality. 2. To encourage the VE team to think in a creative manner, i.e., to look beyond the use of common or standard approaches. 3. To emphasize total ownership costs (life cycle costs) for a facility, rather than just initial capital costs. 4. To lead the VE team to develop a concise understanding of the purposes and functions of the facility. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 4 (B) The systematic methodology used by the VE team to accomplish the VE workshop shall be defined as the VE Job Plan and shall consist of the following five distinct phases: 1. Information Phase: During the Information Phase, the VETC and VE team shall solicit comments on the technical and cost data to develop an overall understanding of the Project’s functions and requirements. The Information Phase shall consist (as a minimum) of the following activities: a. Oral Presentation: The VETC shall facilitate an oral presentation by the Contract Administrator, using agency, Consultant, and CONTRACTOR on the first morning of the workshop to provide the VE team with an understanding and appreciation of the factors that have influenced the Project’s design. This oral presentation shall serve to open the lines of communication between the VE team members, Contract Administrator, and the Consultant. The oral presentation should include: 1. The Consultant's rationale for the project’s development, including the assumptions used to establish the building program, design criteria and to select the Project’s materials and systems. 2. The Consultant’s description of the rationale, evolution, constraints and alternatives for the major design components. 3. The Consultant’s description of the difficulties encountered during the design of the project. b. Function Analysis: 1. The "function analysis approach" shall be used to arrive at the basic purpose of building systems and sub-systems and to assist the VE team in determining the least costs to perform primary functions and peripheral or support functions while identifying costs which can be reduced or eliminated without affecting the performance or reliability of the facility. The function analysis shall be completed as follows: a. b. c. d. e. Identify the study area(s). Identify the basic verb/noun function of the study area. List the component parts of the study area. List the verb/noun function of each component and subcomponent. Identify whether each function is basic, secondary, or a required secondary function. f. Identify the estimated construction cost of each fiction. g. Speculate on the worth or the least cost to accomplish the function. 2. The VE Team shall analyze the function of building systems and subsystems by creation of two-word noun-verb descriptions of those functions. The VE team shall identify and analyze both basic functions (the specific task or work it must perform), secondary function(s) (functions that may be desired but are not actually required to perform the specific task or work), and required secondary functions (functions are absolutely necessary to accomplish the specific task or work, Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 5 although they do not exactly perform the basic function) for selected building systems and sub-systems. 3. For each selected building system and sub-system, the VE Team shall ask and document answers to the following questions in relation to the functions of an item/area: a. b. c. d. e. f. What is its purpose? What does it do? What is the cost? What is it worth? What alternative would accomplish the same function? What would that alternative cost? 4. The function analysis shall identify functional areas sequentially and hierarchically as functions vary according to the selected area (from the total facility to the building elements, systems, and sub-systems). 5. The function analysis shall establish an estimate of the worth of each sub-system or component for comparison with its estimated cost. Since worth is an indication of the value of performing a specific function, extreme accuracy in estimating the worth is not critical. Worth shall be used as a mechanism to identify areas of high potential savings and value improvement. Subsystems performing secondary functions have no worth because they are not directly related to the basic function. 6. The VE team shall make a comparison of the cost-to-worth ratios for the total facility and its sub-systems. These cost-to-worth ratios are obtained by dividing the estimated cost of the system or sub-systems by the total worth for the basic functions or the system or sub-system. High cost-toworth ratios suggest areas of large potential cost savings and identify systems or sub-systems that would be selected for further study by the VE team. Similarly, low cost-to-worth ratios indicate areas where further study efforts would probably not be justified due to diminished potential for cost savings. Cost-to-worth ratios greater than two usually indicate areas with the potential for substantial cost savings and value improvement and shall be considered for further study. 7. Fast Diagramming: The VE Team shall provide graphics indicating the logical relationship of the functions of an item, subsystem, or facility in the form of FAST (Function Analysis System Technique) Diagram(s). The FAST diagram shall be a block diagram based on answers to the questions of "Why?" and "How?" for the item under study. 2. Speculation/Creative Phase a. The VETC shall conduct a group interaction process that the VE team will use to identify alternative ideas for accomplishing the function of systems or subsystems associated with specific study areas. This phase involves an open discussion without any restrictions on the imagination or inventive thinking of individual team members. All analysis, evaluation, or judgement of the ideas generated is delayed until the Evaluation/Analytical Phase. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 6 b. The VETC shall record and list ideas by system, sub-system, and component to facilitate effective organization of the study. The objective of the Speculative/Creative Phase is to generate a completely free interplay of ideas between team members to create an extensive list of alternative ideas for later evaluation. The VETC shall facilitate the discussion and ensure the deferral of any critical judgments or comments that might inhibit any of the team members. c. The VETC shall encourage and solicit the active participation of all VE team members in the creative development of ideas. The VETC is responsible for maintaining a climate for the free exchange of ideas by directing the team members away from discussion or arguments about relative merits of individual ideas. 3. Evaluation/Analytical Phase: a. During the Evaluation/Analytical Phase, the ideas developed in the Speculative/Creative Phase shall be examined to assess which have the best opportunity for implementation, cost savings, and value improvement. The VE team shall evaluate the feasibility of each idea by identifying and documenting its advantages and disadvantages. The ideas shall then rated on a scale of one to ten. A ten represents either the best technical idea or the one with the greatest potential for cost savings and value improvement. b. In ranking ideas, the VE team should consider the following: 1. Are the aesthetic, performance, quality and reliability requirements met or exceeded? 2. Will excessive redesign or project delay be created? 3. Is there improvement in operation and maintenance? 4. Will life cycle cost savings be achieved? 5. Does the idea have a reasonable chance of acceptance and implementation? c. The VE Team shall provide more detailed investigations of the highest-rated ideas in the Development/Recommendation Phase. 4. Development/Recommendation Phase: a. The VE Team shall develop the best ideas from the Evaluation/Analytical Phase into workable VE Proposals. The VE team shall research and develop preliminary designs and life cycle cost comparisons for the original designs and the proposed alternative ideas. The VE Team shall coordinate and consult with outside experts, vendors, and reference sources to obtain additional evaluation information before developing the VE Proposals. b. The development of an idea into a proposal shall include the following steps: Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 7 1. Description of the original design and the alternative idea. 2. Sketch of the original design and the alternative idea. 3. Discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the alternative idea including its impact on life cycle costs and other key facility issues. 4. Preparation of a cost estimate and a life cycle cost analysis if necessary, for the original design and the alternative idea. 5. Recommendation of preferred approach. c. The VE team shall convey the concept of each VE Proposal in a clear and concise manner to avoid its rejection due to a lack of understanding by the Consultant or Contract Administrator. While preparing VE Proposals, the VE team shall work with the Consultant to understand and reflect the Consultant’s perspective for design, value, reliability, cost effectiveness, and implementation. d. Each alternative idea shall be presented as a single independent VE Proposal and recommendation. Each VE Proposal shall be consecutively and uniquely numbered. Multiple ideas shall not be grouped together into a proposal unless there is a technical advantage to doing so. e. VE Proposal preparation. As a minimum, the Contractor shall include the following information in each VE Proposal: 1. A description of the difference between the existing and proposed design, the comparative advantages and disadvantages of each, a justification when an item’s function is being altered, the effect of the change on system or facility performance. 2. A list and analysis of design criteria or specifications that must be changed if the VE Proposal is accepted. 3. A separate detailed estimate of the impact on project cost of each VE Proposal, if accepted and implemented by the government. 4. A description and estimate of costs the government may incur implementing the VE Proposal, such as design change cost and test and evaluation cost. 5. A prediction of any effects the proposed change may have on life cycle cost. 6. The effect of the VE Proposal will have on the design or construction schedules. 5. Report Phase a. The Report Phase shall consist of both an oral and written presentation of the results from the VE study. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 8 b. Oral Presentation: 1. The VE Team shall present VE Proposals in an oral presentation on the last day of the VE workshop. The oral presentation should be a relaxed and informal meeting which lasts approximately one to three hours. The presentation shall provide an opportunity for the Contract Administrator and the Consultant to discuss the VE Proposals with the VE team. 2. To Facilitate the oral presentation, the VETC shall: a. Provide a summary of the VE Proposals to the Contract Administrator, Consultant, and VE team members during the oral presentation so they can commence their review and analysis prior to the receipt of the VE report. b. Initiate the presentation with an overview of the VE study and a summary of the VE Proposals, including the potential cost savings. c. Describe the major factors which influenced the VE study. d. Moderate a brief description of each VE Proposal. e. Facilitate questions and answers concerning the VE study. c: VE Report: 1. The VETC shall prepare a written report which summarizes the results of the entire VE study and submit ten (10) copies of that report to the Contract Administrator not later than fourteen (14) calendar days following the Oral Presentation concluding the VE Workshop. 2. The VE Report will be used by the Contract Administrator and Consultant in their review and evaluation of the VE Proposals. 3. The VE Report shall contain at least the following information: a. Cover Sheet b. Signature Page and Acknowledgments c. Executive summary d. Project name and general description and summary functional space program e. Scope of the VE study f. Names of the Contract Administrator and its staff representatives, the Consultant and its representatives, the CONTRACTOR and its representatives, and other VE team members and their related responsibilities g. Location and date of the workshop Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 9 h. List of the data provided by the A-E i. Project objectives and constraints j. All cost, energy, and life cycle models, and worksheets from the Job Plan phases k. Summary of VE Proposals and cost savings l. Specific VE Proposals with supporting documentation m. Appendix with additional information that the VETC may find appropriate. 4.01 Post-Workshop Activity (A) The post-workshop VE activity will include a thorough review and evaluation of each VE recommendation presented in the VE report by the CONTRACTOR, Consultant, and Contract Administrator and the CONTRACTOR’s preparation of the VE Implementation Summary Acceptance Report. (B) The Contract Administrator and Consultant will evaluate each VE Proposal on the basis of technical, operational, and life cycle cost savings considerations and may consult with the VETC to clarify any questionable items that arise during their review of the VE Proposals. The VETC shall answer questions posed and shall provide clarifying information that may be requested by either the Contract Administrator or Consultant. (C) The Consultant will make recommendations to the Contract Administrator concerning acceptance or rejection of VE Proposals. The Contract Administrator, at its sole discretion, may accept or reject any VE Proposal in whole or in part. (D) VE Implementation Summary Acceptance Report: 1. Once all the VE Proposals have been reviewed, this report is prepared by VETC to summarize the results of the action taken on each of the VE Proposals. The VE implementation summary report and the VE report serve as the complete documentation for the VE study. Separate sets of reports must be prepared for each VE study conducted on a project. 2. The VE Implementation Summary Acceptance Report shall include: a. A brief description of the project, the scope of the VE efforts, and the timing of the study. b. A summary list of the accepted and rejected VE Proposals. Identification numbers from the original VE report should be carried forward. c. An implementation schedule (prepared by the VETC in collaboration with the Consultant) for incorporating the accepted proposals into the design. d. An analysis (prepared by the VETC in collaboration with the Consultant) of Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 10 the value improvement effect of VE Proposals. This can be done in a summary form or by individual proposal(s). 5.01 VE Worksheets and Forms (A) Sample VE Worksheets and Forms for use during the VE Workshop will be available upon request from the Contract Administrator. Preconstruction Services Agreement Exhibit A, Attachment 5 Value Engineering Procedure Page 11 EXHIBIT B Prevailing Wage Rates: On November 17, 1983, the Broward County Board of County Commissioners enacted Ordinance No. 83-72 providing that, in all non-federally funded construction procurement activity of $250,000 or more, the rate of wages and fringe benefit payments for all laborers, mechanics, and apprentices shall not be less than those payments for similar skills in classifications of work in like industries as determined by the Secretary of Labor and as published in the Federal Register. The Department of Labor’s Wage Determination that shall be used for this Agreement and for subsequent agreement(s) for construction of the Project shall be as attached to this Exhibit as Attachment 1. Contract Administrator may update Wage Determination effective for construction phase agreements to a Wage Determination dated later than that provided as Attachment 1 when the benefits of using such later Wage Determination accrues to the interest of COUNTY. 1) Prevailing Wage Rate Ordinance. This Project is not federally funded. If the construction cost is in excess of $250,000, the following sections shall apply: 1) The rate of wages and fringe benefit payments for all laborers, mechanics, and apprentices shall not be less than those payments for similar skills in classifications of work in a like construction industry as determined by the Secretary of Labor and as published in the Federal Register. 2) All mechanics, laborers, and apprentices, employed or working directly upon the site of the work shall be paid in accordance with the above-referenced wage rates. CONTRACTOR shall post notice of these provisions at the site of the work in a prominent place where it can be easily seen by the workers. 3) If the parties cannot agree on the proper classification of a particular class of laborers or mechanics or apprentices to be used, the Contract Administrator shall submit the question, together with its recommendation, to the County Administrator for final determination. 4) In the event it is found by the Contract Administrator that any laborer or mechanic or apprentice employed by CONTRACTOR, or any Subcontractor directly on the site of the work has been or is being paid at a rate of wages less than the rate of wages required by the ordinance, the Contract Administrator may: (1) by written notice to CONTRACTOR terminate its right to proceed with the work or such part of work for which there has been a failure to pay said required wages; and (2) prosecute the work or portion thereof to completion by contract or otherwise. Whereupon, CONTRACTOR and its sureties shall be liable to COUNTY for any excess costs occasioned to COUNTY thereby. 5) Sections 1.1 through 1.4 above shall apply to this Contract to the extent that it is: (1) a prime Contract subject to the ordinance; or (2) a subcontract also subject to the ordinance under such prime Contract. 6) CONTRACTOR shall maintain payrolls and basic records relating thereto during the course of the work and shall preserve such for a period of three (3) years thereafter for all laborers, mechanics, and apprentices working at the site of the work. Such records shall contain the name and address of each such employee; its current classification; rate of pay (including rates of contributions for, or costs assumed to provide, fringe benefits); daily and weekly number of hours worked; deductions made; and actual wages paid.
