October 30,2024 PN 124147C CONFIDENTIAL Trevor Lansdown Brazos County 200 S Texas Ave Bryan,TX 77803 SUBJECT: Commissioning Services RFQ No. 24-135 — Brazos County Administration Building Remodel: Proposal for Commissioning Services Trevor: We appreciate this opportunity to present our proposal for commissioning (Cx) services for the subject project. We look forward to serving you with timely and quality services. As I understand the project, it involves a remodel of the County's administration building that includes a central plant renovation and renovation of the air distribution systems. It is understood that the project has reached the end of design, having issued 100% Construction Documents (CDs), and is in the process of bidding through the construction manager at risk(CMR). TGCE understands that an envelope consultant is already on board for the project. Because a building envelope consultant is already involved in the project, building envelope commissioning by the commissioning authority(CxA) is not included in the current proposal. Cx Services Description To better define the expected Cx scope, I offer the following outline of Cx Services that will be provided.The depth at which certain tasks are performed will be adapted based on specific project 'needs in accordance with the project budget. Other tasks may be added or removed from scope based on project specific needs and confirmation from the Owner. Pre-Construction Phase Cx Services • Review of design documents issued for construction for compliance with general code requirements (primarily related to mechanical systems) and engineering fundamentals. The focus of the review shall be for the purpose of general constructability, functionality, and maintainability of the systems. • Meeting with the Owner for confirmation of critical design elements with Owner's needs and standards. • Review design specifications for appropriate of Cx obligations and provide supplemental Cx specifications/obligations if/as necessary. • Providing Cx review logs to the NE team noting findings from review of design documents to be incorporated into revisions by the design team if/as necessary. • Review of NE responses to Cx log items and confirmation that items were addressed by the NE team appropriately. 3701 Executive Center Drive I Suite 258 I Austin,Texas 78731 I (512)345-7793 I tgce.com Brazos County Administration Building Remodel: Proposal for Cx Services Bid/Solicitation Phase Cx Services • Review Contractor qualifications, bids, and/or CMR's Guaranteed Maximum Prices (GMPs), as applicable for the project delivery type. • Review inclusions/exclusions and clarifications of bids against Contract Documents in coordination with the NE team. Construction Phase Cx Services • Review of pertinent construction documentation, including major equipment submittals, Requests for Information (RFIs), and Contractor's Pay Applications. • Review of addendums, revisions, Architects Supplemental Instructions (ASIs), etc., released during construction. • Lead pre-Cx planning meeting(s) with project stakeholders (construction team, design team, Owner representatives, and others as applicable). a Develop a Cx plan for the construction process to be incorporated into the Contractor's construction schedule, including pre-functional performance checklists (PFPCs), functional performance tests (FPTs), and an integrated systems test (1ST). The level of detail and format of the PFPCs, FPTs,and 1ST will vary depending on the type/size of the project and overall project goals/needs. • Attend construction progress meetings. In general, the CxA's attendance will be virtual, unless in-person attendance is beneficial to the project or if the CxA is already onsite for other Cx activities.Meeting minutes/records to be created and distributed by parties other than TGCE (unless otherwise agreed upon with Brazos County). • Perform progress site visits to the project at critical points during the construction process to review installations and mockups, witness pertinent systems testing and equipment startups where determined to be important by the CxA or Owner, review contractor's pre- functional checks, and witness functional testing. • Create, manage, and issue Cx deficiency logs based on observations made during the CxA's site visits, PFPCs, FPTs,and 1ST. • Develop and issue a Cx report detailing the Cx activities performed, their outcomes, and any remaining work(if applicable) not completed through the Cx process. Protect Close-Out and Warranty Phase Cx Services • Review close-out documentation provided by the NE and Construction teams (e.g., as- builts, record drawings/specifications, record submittals, O&M manuals, etc.)and confirm that all documents required by the OPRs/CFRs and Contract Documents are provided. • Perform warranty site visits to observe site conditions at stages throughout the warranty • period as requested by the Owner. • Confirm that the contractor provides all required Owner training. • If necessary and appropriate, select system testing will be performed in specific seasons where such tests could not be performed in the season of original testing. Understanding of Proposal Exclusions: It is understood that the following items are currently not requested, not applicable, or not expected to be needed by this team. To the extent scope is determined to be otherwise as the project evolves, additional scope can be performed by the CxA with confirmation by the Owner. • Design reviews and other Cx activities will generally be limited to MEP, fire alarm (FA), fire protection (FP). Building envelope Cx is not currently included in the CxA's scope, as third-party building envelope consultant is understood to be under contract on the project. All other trades are not currently included in the Cx scope, except where such scopes are Page 12 Brazos County Administration Building Remodel: Proposal for Cx Services understood to impact MEP, FA, FP systems. To the extent that they are deemed to be necessary for the respective project scope,TGCE will engage those services for inclusion in Cx services. • Design milestone and other reviews will generally not include the CxA performing cooling/heating load calculations or other detailed calculations/analysis. • Permitting for the project is understood to be the responsibility of the Construction team/Contractor. • Opinions of Probable Construction Costs (OPCCs) are to be provided by parties other than the CxA(e.g.,the CMR). • Testing,Adjusting,and Balancing(TAB)is to be procured by the Contractor or the Owner, depending on specific project requirements. TAB is not included under TGCE's contract. TGCE will support the TAB process as applicable to Cx services and as requested by the Owner. Cx Services Fee We believe an hourly fee budget approach best fits the potentially varying level of effort required for these Cx services. Effort will be billed against the contracted fee on an hourly personnel cost expended in each billing period. This approach provides both an upper-limit protection for the Owner as well as the assurance that the Owner receives the benefit of all economies we experience. We have estimated our level of effort for this project to be $186,000 and propose that estimate as the fee budget. It is understood that hourly fee budgets may not be sufficient to complete all the necessary work for the project.As we approach the fee budget amount,TGCE so advises you to review the status of the project and expectations for further direction of work to mutually determine if an extension of the budget is appropriate or if we should pause our services upon reaching the budget. This review is to occur through our monthly invoicing for work performed for the prior work period,with direction by the Owner if it anticipates expansion of budget or restriction?f work. The required level of effort for each project is influenced by a number of factors, such as project complexity, project delivery method, project design team, project construction team, and procurement issues (e.g., long lead times, etc.) or other economic factors that impact project schedule. Some of these factors are outside of the CxA's control, but the CxA is committed to adapting their services to meet the varying needs of the project as the various project factors impact them as can reasonably be accomplished within the agreed-upon fee budgets. Where such factors are expected to limit the work that can be accomplished within the agreed-upon fee budget, TGCE will notify the Owner of such and receive direction from the Owner on how to proceed. Additional Services Given the hourly budget approach to the project, additional services are not applicable, as all hourly efforts are invoiced.
