  1. Project Scoping, Prospectus, Estimate, and Schedule Martin Andersen Local Government Section Manager December 4, 2009

  2. Project Scoping Fundamentals • PROJECT SCOPE – The work that must be done in order to deliver a product with the specified features and functions. • PROJECT SCOPE MANAGEMENT – The processes required to ensure that the project includes all work required to complete the project successfully.

  3. The purpose of Draft STIP Scoping • Establish the problem statement • Develop solutions and options • Develop cost estimates • Develop a schedule • Identify impacts right-of-way, environmental, utilities • Identify stakeholders

  4. NEED FOR PROJECT SCOPING

  5. Scoping is the foundation upon which your entire project is built • Just as you would not consider building a house without a proper foundation, you should not consider developing a project without a proper scope • Your project is only as good as the foundation upon which you built it

  6. Scoping verifies and documents the purpose and need for your project • What is the problem • What are the alternatives • What are the impacts • What are the goals of your project

  7. Benefits of Good Scoping • Verifies and fixes the right problem • Project is correctly programmed • Project is kept within budget and on schedule

  8. Proper Scoping Can Save You • Months of wasted time • Hundreds of hours of staff time • Thousands of dollars in PE costs • Millions of dollars in construction costs

  9. Basic Concepts of Project Scoping • Project scoping is based on several concepts. They provide the basis for the process by which scoping is done • The concepts include teamwork, public and stakeholder participation, informed decision making, and proper documentation

  10. Teamwork • Project scoping is collaborative effort involving team work among diverse stakeholders to identify problems an propose solutions • The project team plays a critical role in identifying and evaluating issues/concerns to appropriate depth and detail

  11. Stakeholder Participation • Stakeholder participation is the cornerstone of successful project scoping and design • Know who your stakeholders are • Reach out to them at the beginning of scoping

  12. Informed Decision Making • Projects require a level of scoping commensurate with the type of proposed work. • Project data requirements depend on a projects problems and needs, complexity, significance of issues, scope and scale of alternatives to be evaluated.

  13. Sufficient data needs to be gathered to ensure: • Project needs can be clearly understood • Stakeholders issues can be identified • Clear project objectives can be established • Environmental considerations are identified • Feasible alternatives are outlined/compared • Project cost and schedule can be estimated

  14. Proper Documentation • Clear and concise documentation and good record keeping is essential. • Project documentation provides a clear picture of what is to be accomplished • It is used to grant scope approval and provides information for future stages of the project development

  15. GETTING STARTED • Project Research • Scoping Team • Scoping Site Visit • Project Prospectus • Estimate

  16. OFFICE RESEARCH

  17. OFFICE RESEARCH • Project purpose and need statement What is the problem we are trying to correct • Design standards to be used – Does the current alignment meet standards • Current and future traffic volumes- Build year and design year

  18. Accident history, accident rate, analysis of accident “hot spots” • Existing pavement conditions and preliminary ideas for surfacing treatments • Bridge inspection reports and recommended actions • Vicinity maps, Right of Way Maps, and as constructed drawings

  19. SCOPING TEAM

  20. SCOPING TEAM MEMBERS • Project Leader (Local, ODOT/Consultant) • Engineering - Roadway, Bridge, Traffic • Right of Way • Environmental • Utility Specialist • Construction Project Management

  21. Additional Members • Geo/Hydro • Pavements • Planning • Surveying • Rail Safety • Public Affairs • Access Management

  22. SITE VISIT

  23. SITE VISIT • Take good notes and document • Safety concerns and possible solutions • Pavement conditions and surfacing design alternatives • Stage construction concerns and alternatives • Right of Way impacts and needs

  24. LOOK FOR • Access issues • Utility impacts • Pedestrian and bicycle needs • ADA needs, ramps, sidewalks, driveways • Level of Survey work required

  25. AND THESE • Environmental impacts • Wetlands • Hazmat • Threatened and Endangered Species (ESA) • Historic • Archaeological

  26. PROJECT PROSPECTUS • The project prospectus is a tool to convey information about a project to various organization inside and outside of ODOT • It starts the process of identifying the problem to be solved and presents ideas on how to solve it

  27. It contains information on the Project: • Costs • Funding sources • Funding years • Right of Way impacts • Environmental impacts

  28. Its Divided into Three Parts • Part 1 - Project Request • Part 2 – Project Details • Part 3 – Project Environmental Class

  29. Part 1 provides information on: • The project location • Overview of the project • Problem statement • Proposed solution • Cost estimates for PE, CE, Right of Way, and construction

  30. Part 2 defines: • Who is responsible for completing the different categories of the project design • Base design requirements • Roadway element widths • Structure size and cost • Right of Way information

  31. Part 3 – Environmental details: • Details environmental impacts • Environmental baseline information • Require permits, reports and clearances

  32. Preliminary Schedule & Cost Estimate

  33. Schedule • Create a preliminary schedule, based on the input from the scoping team members. • to help determine which year the project can be delivered use on of ODOT’s MS Project schedule templates.

  34. Keys to a sound estimate • Identify all the major elements tasks and bid items required for the project • Research and assign reasonable unit prices to all items
