will take into account construction feasibility, availability of materials and labor, shipping and production <br />lead-times, time requirements for construction and the cost of alternative designs or materials. <br />• We'll take time early in the preconstruction phase to review mechanical and electrical system equipment <br />and fixtures that will be incorporated into these systems. Mechanical and electrical systems are a large <br />part of any project and special attention to these systems early in the design phase is beneficial to <br />determine initial costs of the systems and operating costs of those systems. <br />• With you and the Design Team we will review the construction documents and specifications as they <br />are being prepared and make recommendations regarding alternatives that may be more effective or <br />economical, yet still meet the requirements of the project. <br />• We will review estimates with you and the Design Team at predetermined timeframes during <br />preconstruction to communicate budget status. <br />• We'll alert you and the Design Team whenever design details may adversely affect costs, constructability <br />or schedules. <br />• The team will start the process early in preconstruction to assemble the contract packages that will be <br />used during the bidding process. Building the contract packages early establishes complete packages <br />with inclusive work scope notes that subcontractors and suppliers will use during the bidding process in <br />order to submit thorough and accurate pricing. <br />Through constant coordination of the schedule and budget we assure our clients that their project will be <br />completed on time and within their budget. Please refer to the following page for our preliminary project schedule. <br />"I am writing this letter today to let you know how pleased I have been with the performance of your team, <br />particularly Mike Schoenecker and [the Superintendent] throughout the predevelopment and construction of our <br />project (The Meadows of Wadena) in Wadena, Minnesota . As I'm sure you are aware, the project is now substantially <br />complete and I feel it is important that you know how well the project was carried out. I have worked with several <br />different general contractors, ranging from large national firms to local firms, and I can say without any reservations <br />that this project was as smooth as any I have been involved with. <br />Mike Schoenecker has been a pleasure to work with since the beginning of the project. He has been very candid and <br />transparent in discussions regarding budgets and costs, as well as providing insight and useful recommendations <br />regarding the marketing of our senior housing product. This project was on a very tight budget due to the low-income <br />profile of the Wadena market area and Mike went above and beyond to ensure this project could be completed... <br />I could go on and on, but needless to say, I'm a very happy client and I believe it is important that you know what a <br />great team I had on this project. Although this was my first project with Winkelman (Bradbury Stamm), I expect to <br />work with you and your team again in the future." <br />Paul Abzug, President/CEO <br />Housing Alternatives <br />Bradbury Stamm <br />Ramsey Public Works and Fleet Maintenance Facility <br />Proposal for Construction Manager as Construction Services <br />August 9, 2019 <br />17 <br />Gon ;irl_I(;iiori <br />
