1. Project Management Requirements
CVE Design 1
Project Management
Requirements

2. Project Phases Design 1 – Prepare proposal
Purpose is to win the design
Proposal must state why your team is best
Must include a Project Management Plan in the proposal
Must include your proposed fee for design
Design 2 – Design the project
Verify the 5% stage
Design 15, 50, 95,100%
Develop engineering details & construction drawings
Manage & report on 50, 95,100%
Integrate all design elements into unified project
Prepare display for Design Showcase in April
Estimate cost of 15, 50, 95,100%
Written report is graded at each stage

3. Proposal Contents-1 Title Page – follow instructions
Letter of Transmittal – transmits your fee/price; PM signs
Table of Contents – separate tab for each section
Introduction
Project Background – focus the reader
Scope of Work – what’s included & what’s not
Project Site Map – where is it
Team Organization – who will do it
Project Management Plan
Project Flow Diagram – flow of tasks over time
Work Breakdown Structure – who will do each task
Design Budget (fee) – what will each task cost
Design Schedule (MS Project) – when will each task be completed
Conceptual cost of construction – cost to actually build the project

4. Proposal Contents-2 Project Layout & Base Map
Base Map shows data on boundaries and major features
Layout adds “proposed” location and size of engineering features: roads, piping systems, retention ponds, etc.
All team members should participate in this drawing
Preliminary Design Investigation - each engineer
Written Technical Report – consult with engineering advisor
Include such items as:
Engineering problem(s) to be solved in the design
Logic of location & size of engineering features
Design options considered; cite the pros & cons of each
Applicable codes, ordinances or criteria that will control the design
Cite all technical information to be used in the design
Design decision – what engineering design method will be used and why
Constraints – cite any political, environmental or physical limitations
Global, Societal and Professional Issues
Appendices & List of References

5. Project Management Tools = Your Project Dashboard
They enable you to be proactive rather than reactive…

6. Project Management Tools
Project Flow Diagram
your road map/GPS
Project Schedule
your speedometer
Project Budget
your fuel gauge

13. Conceptual Cost Estimate
Preliminary Construction Cost
Based on historical data
Itemize components: W&WW, Structure, Roads, etc.
Base on similar project
Use cost per SF or similar data
Be sure to update for location & timing
Example: construct a 300-bed college FIT
Base: 2008 UCF $25,000/bed (Const data or RS Means)
Location: Melbourne vs. Orlando = 0.83 (RS Means)
Timing: Inflation = 10% (Internet)
Conceptual cost = $7,500,000 x .83 x 1.1 = $6,847,500
