SPLOST 7 Recommendations Solicitation Committee.docx

The document discusses the Program Management and Delivery Method for the Forsyth County Courthouse and Jail projects. It emphasizes the importance of having a Program Manager (PM) to oversee the projects, manage stakeholders, and assist in selecting architects and construction managers. The document also highlights factors to consider when determining the best Delivery Method, such as cost, quality, schedule, and technical specifications. The recommended approach is to utilize the Construction Manager at Risk (CM @ Risk) method, involving the Architect and Program Manager early on to enhance innovation, limit changes, and ensure adherence to budget. The three steps outlined for this method include selecting a Program Manager, Architects for each project, and Construction Managers @ Risk, with a focus on qualifications and negotiated fixed fees. The involvement of all parties from the early stages is crucial for successful project management and delivery.
