The details of the system become the District’s archive at the end of the work • DEI will manage municipal and regulator inspections, manage the responsible contractor policy, work closely with the principal to coordinate daily events and activities • DEI will examine all monthly payment applications and any change order requests on behalf of the District.

FEE PROPOSAL

D’Huy Engineering, Inc. proposes to execute the Boehm Middle School project with the same priori- ties we successfully executed the Pennwood MS project. Our focus will be to look for value, savings and grant opportunities and incorporate sustainability, continuous value engineering, creative prob- lem solving, scheduling, quality and const control to achieve Best Value. Our proposal is to provide the same Senior Level Team Approach and scope of services for the Boehm Middle School project that we used on the Pennwood Middle School project. This includes:

• 11 months – Comprehensive Pre-Construction Phase Services Including Constructability Review and Front End Documents $ 80,000 • Estimating and Value Engineering Services $35,000 • 2 months – Bid Phase Services $15,000 • 4 months – Construction Phase Services $755,000 • Reimbursable Expense $25,000

We would request the opportunity to meet with you to review, confirm and refine the number of months, scope and fee to provide the best value for the District with our Senior Level Team. We would be willing to work on a time and expense basis where needed and we would also request the District to consider a contingency fee which can be allocated by the District once the project schedule, scope and phasing is firmly established. Our promise is to work diligently with an Integrated Team Approach to successfully execute the Boehm Middle School project and work toward providing savings that offset our fee.
