![Page 4: WSDOT Design Build Contracting – an innovative partnership Society of American Military Engineers September 16, 2014 Phil Fordyce, P.E. WSDOT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649f1b5503460f94c317d4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Preliminary EngineeringDesign/Contract Development
• Preliminary/Conceptual Design– 15% level of design– Cost estimates
• Right of Way• Utilities• Deviations• Risk • Agency/Stakeholder/Open Houses
– Aesthetics and Noise walls

Project Goals (example)
Congestion Relief - Open the new northbound auxiliary lane to traffic as soon as possible and no later than December 31, 2010.
Excellent Quality - Meet or exceed technical quality requirements for design and construction through implementation of a clear and thorough Quality Management Plan.
Permit Compliance - Meet or exceed environmental requirements with no permit violations by adopting WSDOT’s permitting and environmental compliance standards.
Smooth Start-up - Maximize project development effectiveness through implementation of a well-planned start-up that ensures efficient delivery of the Project and begins construction as soon as possible.
Technical Approach - Utilize technical innovations that provide added value to the project.

Selecting a Design Build Team
Request for Qualifications (RFQ)
•Selection process based on goals•Shortlist 3 to 5 teams•Reference Checks•Philosophy in Scoring•Evaluation Manual•Debrief with firms

Selecting a Design Build Team
Request for Proposal (RFP)
•Meetings with proposers•Q and A’s•ATC’s•Confidentiality•Addendums•Quiet period•Technical score and price
![Page 8: WSDOT Design Build Contracting – an innovative partnership Society of American Military Engineers September 16, 2014 Phil Fordyce, P.E. WSDOT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649f1b5503460f94c317d4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Calculating Best Value Proposal price - Technical score Lowest score is best value
Team Price Technical Credits ScoreA $185,740,751 - 10,660,000 = 175,080,751B $202,874,000 - 11,820,000 = 191,054,000C $157,800,001 - 9,630,000 = 148,170,001D $155,500,001 - 6,500,000 = 149,000,001

Design Build Partnership Keys to Success
• Co-location• Formal and informal
partnering• Discipline task forces• Shifting focus of the
organization– Learning curve for everyone
• WSDOT has oversight
![Page 10: WSDOT Design Build Contracting – an innovative partnership Society of American Military Engineers September 16, 2014 Phil Fordyce, P.E. WSDOT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649f1b5503460f94c317d4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Design Of Design Build
• Design Builder moves project from 15% conceptual plans to 100% RFC plans.
• Design Builder submits plan sets to WSDOT for review and comment (preliminary and final) – not approval
• Construction starts before design is complete, but not without RFC plans.
• Post design services – Process to get AS-built plans (RFI,FDC, NDC)
![Page 11: WSDOT Design Build Contracting – an innovative partnership Society of American Military Engineers September 16, 2014 Phil Fordyce, P.E. WSDOT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649f1b5503460f94c317d4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
WSDOT - Roles and Responsibilities Design
• WSDOT owns Basic Configuration elements• WSDOT provides oversight:
• Most review happens in Task Force meetings through “over the shoulder” reviews
• Ensure design meets the Contract Requirements / Mandatory Standards established
• Manage review comments and resolution; beware of preferences• Do not direct work• Management – tracking (doc. control)
• WSDOT provides design quality audits– DQMP
• WSDOT approves the design at the end of the project

The Construction of Design Build
• Quality Management Plan (QMP)• Design Builder responsible for Quality Control (QC) and
Quality Assurance (QA)– Quality Assurance must be independent from Quality Control
– Quality Manager must report to non-production management
• WSDOT responsible for Quality Verification (QV)– Lab certification and tester qualifications
– Testing asphalt
– Fabrication inspection
• Environmental – WSDOT responsible for permitting
– Design Builder responsible for compliance
• The Design Builder responsible for solutions to problems

Contract Administration Roles and Responsibilities
• Document control• Materials/Record of
Material• Payment• Change orders• RFI/FDC/NDC (post
design services)• As-Builts• Final Records
