However, we would expect that previous protocol remain in effect for items outside of these circumstances. Documentation for any work or items not specified in the bidding documents will then be subject to the Owners contractually allotted markup of documented costs. This would hold true for any deductive changes where a savings will be passed on to the Owner. While not having received details for this Project, we would expect special attention will be given to the interior layout of the facility to ensure ease in the day-to-day operations of the professionals that will be employed at the facility. Ocean Gate recognizes that this building will play a vital role in the maintenance and upkeep of Martin County Emergency Services and believes that the proper layout both in the service area as well as the logistical and office areas is critical in creating a streamlined operation for such an important facet of our County. Specific details of day-to-day operations will be addressed in these meetings enabling Ocean Gate's design team to account for such items as accommodating specialized equipment to electrical switch and outlet locations specific to office and equipment layout. Once these documents are accepted by the Owner, a revised construction schedule that is realistic and adjusted based on any required changes to the scope of work will be submitted to the Owner for approval. Our firm is fully confident in our ability to schedule projects effectively as evidenced by the fact that Ocean Gate has NEVER been assessed liquidated damages for failing to complete a project on time. Construction For the construction of this facility, Ocean Gate has identified a full-time Project Manager and Superintendent familiar to the County's policies and procedures to oversee the Project. These individuals will ensure the success of this endeavor through the following standard practices: Weekly Progress Meetings: These meetings allow a clear vision to be established as a construction team approach isgiven to finish the project. All expectations are communicated to all involved subcontractors at this time while presenting a venue to present upcoming coordination issues. This inter -trade meeting process is critical to the success of the project. Owner Progress Meetings- Historically, Martin County Capitol Projects will also hold a progress meeting every two weeks to discuss the progression of the job and to review any scheduling, contract or design issues, as well as working on the coordination of the owner specific requirements of the job such as account set up and management with the various utility companies necessary to service the facility. Ocean Gate encourages this type of communication throughout the various stages of the project. At these meetings it is beneficial to provide an updated schedule to all of the individuals involved in the Project. Daily Field Logs- Our on-site Superintendent will keep daily logs for the activity on the job site. These records will be made available for the Owner and have proved to be a valuable tool in assessing the progress of the Project. Video Records of the Site- We will arrange to have monthly video of the site prior to construction until completion of the Project. These records will also document the progress of the Project. Subcontractor Coordination and Supervision= It is imperative that proper supervision be given to subcontractors on the Project. Workmanship will not be accepted if properly supervised. In
