Body
Facilities Projects start as a request through the University Project Request Process. Once approved, Facilities projects generally go through the following stages.
Project Scope, Estimates, Schedule Developed by PED Team
The Construction Project List will be prioritized and scheduled based on access to work space and work load. Refined scope drawings, estimates and schedule will be developed in conjunction with the user group, as well as verifying programming needs will be met with the project. In addition, the PED team will seek input from the internal UWSP HVAC, electrical and plumbing team to assist in the design and coordination of the MEP. PED will also coordinate with IT at this time for their input and their project scope.
Project Scope, Estimates, Schedule Approved by User Group
Once refined scope drawings, estimates and schedule are developed, approval by user group department lead is necessary for construction to commence.
Pre-Construction Meeting Onsite
A pre-construction meeting with all subcontractors and trades must be held on-site prior to demolition. Purpose is to answer any questions any of the trades may have regarding demolition/construction and to verify all existing conditions. Include MEP/IT/finish/demo contractors.
Mid-Project Progress Meeting
Meeting with user group to update progress of construction. Project costs and schedule will be updated to determine if project is on track with initial projections. If not, changes to scope or budget may be necessary at this point.
Punch List
Conduct a walkthrough of the construction space, at about 90% completion, and identify any areas that require repairs or need to be finished before the project is completed and turned over to the user group. Final cleaning.
Final Walkthrough/Project Closeout
Conduct a final walkthrough of the finished space and ensure that all construction work is completed and furniture is installed. Training for the use of MEP/IT controls should either be conducted at this time or scheduled. Space turned over to the user group.
Administrative Updates
Update emergency floor plans. Make location change in Avanti. Update TMA data and equipment lists.
