<br />skilled project managers, schedulers,
<br />estimators, and inspectors who have
<br />successfully managed water/wastewater
<br />treatment, storage, and transmission projects
<br />throughout Southern California. The
<br />Construction Management Team is a key link
<br />to a successful project. By having the Butler
<br />Team serve the City as a single -source of
<br />responsibility, the CM and Inspection activities
<br />will be well coordinated and delivered
<br />efficiently. In addition to our licensed
<br />professional engineers, our field engineering
<br />staff possess certifications from the following
<br />organizations:
<br />■ American Concrete Institute (Field Testing
<br />Technicians)
<br />■ American Welding Society (Certified Welding
<br />Inspectors)
<br />■ International Code Council (Reinforced
<br />Concrete, Prestressed Concrete, Structural
<br />Masonry, Soils, Spray -Applied Fireproofing,
<br />Structural Steel And Bolting, Structural
<br />Welding, Electrical)
<br />• NACE International (Level 1, 2 and 3 Certified
<br />Coating Inspectors)
<br />• Post Tension Institute (Field Technicians)
<br />Approach to Managing Personnel
<br />We propose to approach this project with a
<br />spirit of partnership, This enables us to
<br />combine the knowledge, Ideas, and talents of
<br />your staff with our construction administration
<br />experience, Our core team will be
<br />supplemented by as -needed technical and
<br />administrative resources provided by Butler.
<br />Butler's CM and inspection responsibilities are
<br />handled by the project team member best
<br />experienced to provide the needed service.
<br />Butler does not assign inspection staff to
<br />perform project document controls, rather,
<br />inspectors focus on implementing the QAIQC
<br />program and reports required to document
<br />daily activity. Likewise, all project
<br />documentation and controls are the
<br />responsibility of the Contract Administrator. All
<br />projects have a Project Manager assigned to
<br />monitor project field staff performance.
<br />Following this formula is critical for the
<br />Owner's defense in the event of project
<br />claims. It is also more cost efficient by
<br />matching staff skills to project needs.
<br />The Project Director has full access to teams
<br />of civil, mechanical, electrical, and structural
<br />engineers, specialty consultants, and
<br />inspectors through existing relationships and
<br />teaming arrangements with local firms. The
<br />CM Team is always vigilant during
<br />preconstruction, construction, and close-out to
<br />meticulously document project activities and
<br />minimize contractor claims.
