Choose a Delivery Method:

Collaborative-Design-Build

This delivery method is a hybrid of the CMAR and DB. In the Phase 1 agreement, the owner and Design-Builder collaborate to develop a set of Design-Build documents and a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) based on those documents and a Phase 2 Design-Build agreement as a product of the scope and GMP developed in Phase 1.

Construction Manager At Risk

This delivery method requires a construction manager (CM) to provide preconstruction services (Phase 1) for the design and a separate construction contract (Phase 2) to deliver the project. The design team develops the construction documents with the information provided by the owner and the CM at Phase 1. The CM commits to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) developed throughout Phase 1.

Design-Bid-Build

This is the traditional method of project delivery. It involves three phases: a linear design, bidding and construction. Construction documents are developed first by a design entity. Documents are competitively bid and the project is awardd to the contractor with the lowest price who is qualified, responsive and responsible.

Design-Build

For this delivery method, the owner awards a single agreement for design and construction after selecting a project solution through a best value project competition.

TOCA Collaborative Design-Build

This construction contract procurement method is used for performing multiple projects as individual tasks under a single master enabling agreement. Each task can be executed as either a Construction Manager at Risk (CM TOCA) or a Collaborative Design-Build (CDB TOCA) delivery method.

TOCA Construction Manager at Risk

This delivery method is used for performing multiple projects as individual tasks under a single master enabling agreement (MEA). Each task can be executed as either a Construction Manager at Risk (CM TOCA) or a Collaborative Design-Build (CDB TOCA) delivery.

Job Order Contracts

This construction procurement uses an annual contract with a prequalified contractor to accomplish minor capital outlay maintenance, repair or improvement projects by utilizing a construction task catalog for pricing. Design services are typically separate from the JOC contract.

Design Development Phase

Design Development (Preliminary Design)

Description:

the Design Development Phase (previously referred to as Preliminary Design) follows the approval of the schematic design by CPDC / Board of Trustees and the campus. The phase cannot begin until Schematic Design has been approved and written authorization to proceed has been issued by the campus.

The emphasis of the phase is on developing the more technical issues of the project such as actual products, assembly of systems, and further coordination of disciplines while addressing any items brought forward during the schematic design approval process. The documents confirm or adjust, as required, all aspects of the schematic plans and revise cost information to reflect the more detailed development.

Information presented in various deliverables need to be organized and easily followed. Refer to Exhibit D, California State University Procedure Manual for Capital Projects, for the minimum requirements for Design Development documents.

Campus designated staff shall attend all meetings to insure campus representation and provide guidance to Design team per previsions of the contract.

The construction manager (CM) shall check the documents for completeness, coordination, ambiguities, ability to bid, and make recommendations to the Architect and the Trustees. in addition to providing constructability reviews continuously, at 100% DDs, the CM shall issue a constructability report and a complete construction cost estimate.
