We manage all projects using the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) system of document control and project administration, along with project specific funding requirements.

Many change orders can result from a lack of coordination between various design disciplines. Items such as bidding requirements, scheduling requirements, construction sequencing, and startup responsibilities should be clearly defined in the specifications. A constructability review tailored towards the size, scale, and project timeline can help confirm that the project can physically be assembled as designed.

Specification Writing
Specification Writing
Performing CMIT services on agency projects ultimately exposes what we think is a common problem: lack of attention to detail in the technical specifications. We provide stand-alone specification writing services for agencies who are performing project design. We find the best “bang for your buck” is making sure that the scope of work and pay mechanisms for each bid item are well defined, and that the bid quantities in the bid sheet are adequately reviewed.
