  17. SUBCONTRACTS AND VENDORS • PLEASE KEEP TWO THINGS AT THE FOREFRONT OF YOUR THOUGHTS • 1. Everyone in our industry attempts to push all liability to us. • 2. The Customer is Always Right……AND when it comes to subcontracts and POs……WE ARE THE CUSTOMER

  18. Subcontract Process • Subcontractor Approval and Pre-qual Process • All new sub contractors are to be sent the following: • Pre-qual Package • Copy of our template sub-contract • Be sure to include the correct type of sub contract. • The pre-qual package is to be returned to the Preconstruction Coordinator • The Preconstruction Coordinator will refer the pre-qual package to the Director of Education and Loss Prevention for review of safety and approval after checking credit references and EMRs. • The Preconstruction Coordinator will refer the pre-qual package to the VP of Finance for review and approval of financial stability • The preconstruction Coordinator will refer the reviewed package to the VP of Preconstruction for a reference check and final approval.

  19. SubContract, Work Order or Purchase Order • Subcontracts valued at less than 10,000 dollars do not need to be pre-qualed and can be issued a simplified subcontract in lieu of the standard subcontract. • Work orders are issued in lieu of a subcontract if we have a master sub contract with the contractor. • Our intent is to establish master sub contracts with as many contractors as possible if we intend to do more than one project with the subcontractor.

  20. Purchase orders are only issued to material suppliers. If labor is involved, use a subcontract or work order • New vendors: We will need a new vendor request and the request and W-9 sent to Angela. • We DO NOT ACCEPT other companies PO terms and conditions • Federal Projects: When issuing the subcontract or work order template, be sure to issue all pertinent exhibits for the project

  21. Types of Sub Contracts • Standard • The default contract • Simplified • For contracts less than 10K dollars only • Design only • For designers and engineers only • Labor or Equipment Only • For labor providers such as Aerotech or equipment providers such as equipment rentals or cranes only

  22. Letter of Intent, Notice to Proceed • If work needs to begin on a project before the contract process can be completed a Letter of Intent and Notice to Proceed to can be issued • These need to be limited in dollar amount • These need a clear limit and definition of scope • Must have attached to them the subcontract which will be executed (At least the template) • Must be signed by the contractor before work begins and we need insurance certificates before work begins • May be signed by President, VP of Operations or Director of Education and Loss Prevention before being sent to the contractor.

  23. Reviewing the Contract • Refer to the Review Packet you were given • 1. Contract Review Checklist • 2. Project Manager Review Checklist • 3. Contract Summary Sheet

  24. Lets do a quick contract review using the Project Mangers Contract Review Check List and the Sample Contract Supplied in Groups and then we will go over as a class.

  25. Summary • The contract is the agreement that the entire project will be managed by. We need to ensure that everyone that is involved in the supervision of the project understands the contract.
