39SOUTH BEND, INDIANA GSC A. PROVIDER’S INVOLVEMENT Kokosing will serve as both the provider and the General Contractor for the project. We will take the lead to ensure all possibilities of guaranteed savings are realized and properly reported to the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance. We will ensure the program is managed in an efficient method and produce a safe, workable, quality project that is finished on time, under budget and exceeds the expectations of The City of South Bend. Based on the scope of services outlined in the RFP, we anticipate self-performing: As a self-performing General Contractor, we expect to do more than 70 percent of the project exclusive of the specialty tank with our leadership and skilled trade craftspeople. This means we have both responsibility and full control over the work done on your site. As you will see below, safety and quality are hallmarks of Kokosing projects. B. PROVIDER’S PROJECT MANAGEMENT The topic of project management addresses two fundamental questions: 1. How are you going to run my job? 2. How do I know you’ll do it right? As a major General Contractor, Kokosing uses state-of-the industry software and technology to track, manage, and control the three axes of a project: scope, schedule, and budget. We place increased attention on safety and quality because they are the critical inputs to scope, schedule, and budget. Safety dictates the way we work and safeguards our core belief that every person on the jobsite – ours, yours, and our Subcontractor's – is worth the time and effort to do things the right way. Quality encompasses our own high standards to deliver a final product you are proud of and will last a lifetime. These five project elements mean little without the nexus that binds them together: Communication. The most successful projects are those where the people delivering the project – Owner, Engineer, Operator, and Kokosing – freely and proactively transfer information to avoid problems, resolve issues, and collaboratively elevate the project. Our approach to project management leads by example, working side-by-side with you and your trusted advisors to maximize the benefit you receive for every dollar and hour invested. The following sections provide an introduction and overview of the industry-leading best practices we use to run every project, regardless of size or scope. From this general approach, we tailor elements to meet the needs and expectations of each client.
