6SOUTH BEND, INDIANA GSC <br />CONSTRUCTION SERVICES <br />Construction services are typically associated with a general contractor and include scheduling, equipment and materials procurement, construction, commissioning, training, and close-out. <br />Pat Johnston, Superintendent, will have day-to-day responsibilities for the project including safety for all personnel. Pat brings over 40 years of relevant experience building water and wastewater infastructure in Indiana. He is an "out in the field" type of superintendent and works closely with foreman, crews, and subcontractors to ensure the job is done right. With Kokosing's crews and equipment resources, he has everything he needs to continue his winning tradition. <br />Matt McCarthy, Safety Director, has been with the Kokosing Safety department for almost 20 years and supervises all the safety professionals in Kokosing Industrial. His background includes five years of experience in the Occupational Safety and Health field prior to joining Kokosing. Matt is involved in a variety of projects within all divisions, including many large and complex industrial facilities. <br />PRECONSTRUCTION SERVICES <br />Preconstruction is the period between our selection as your GSC provider and the start of construction. This period contains many activities critical to the successful execution of construction and of your project. Preconstruction contains review of the designs by American Structurepoint, constructability reviews, scope verification, cost estimating, value engineering, various workshops, conservation measure calculations, and guaranteed maximum price setting. <br />Tina Wolff P.E. is instrumental in establishing the GSC contract. She works with you and your engineer to identify savings opportunities, to perform the savings calculations, and to negotiate the agreement and contract conditions. She also submits all the filings to the State. Tina has performed in this role for nearly all of Kokosing's GSC projects. Her work culminates with the contract including the GMP, construction schedule and financing terms, and the commitment of no contractor-initiated change orders. <br />Steve Ehret will act as our lead estimator and be the primary point for the team of discipline estimators to build the bottoms-up estimate of your project costs. As part of his work, Steve will help the engineering and management team explore the comparative cost differences between technically equivalent options. This includes pricing from multiple vendors but can also extend to evaluating the savings potential from alternate sequencing and changes in material selection. The culmination of his work is the establishment of the Guaranteed Maximum Price with a detailing of the scope of work, assumptions, and exclusions. <br />Chuck LaRue Project Manager, will be responsible for the management of the overall scope, schedule, and budget on this project. Chuck brings over 10 years of relevant construction experience to your project, including work recently completed at the CSO 032 and 3rd Street Pump Station project in Fort Wayne. He will be the main point of contact for the City during construction, and from pre-construction through project close-out. <br />CHUCK LARUE <br />PROJECT <br />MANAGER
