Identify which portions of the project you intend to implement with subcontractors and how the subcontractors will <br />interact with the Owner. <br />COORDINATION WITH SUBCONTRACTORS <br />The City of South Bend will work with one team: Schneider Electric. We eliminate the hassle of managing a patchwork of <br />subcontractors by taking sole responsibility for all construction activities. This streamlined approach is more responsive to the sensitive <br />scheduling and logistical needs of your city. <br />To ensure that subcontractors on your site are professional and qualified, we: <br />1. Thoroughly screen every subcontractor's performance, safety record, financial statements, and backlog <br />2. Contact customer and vendor references to confirm a track -record of reliability and work completion according to specifications <br />Using Avetta, a leading provider of supply chain management solutions, we can <br />ensure your project utilizes subcontractors that can meet minimum vetting and <br />governance criteria including operational verification, insurance checks, and <br />compliance. A Avetta <br />Moreover, all of our subcontractors are required to sign a Subcontractor Master Managing Supply Chain Safety: We use Avetta <br />Agreement, which defines all terms and conditions under which they must to maintain our subcontractor database <br />operate. This eliminates the potential for litigation against you, while ensuring <br />the subcontractors meet all requirements for performance. <br />As a result, the City will have no additional workload associated with supervising and managing fieldwork. Your Schneider Electric <br />Project Manager will handle all paperwork, invoicing, and accounting with subcontractors. Your Schneider Electric Site Superintendent <br />will manage all day-to-day communications, scheduling, and safety audits. <br />Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to December 10, 2024 <br />the restriction on the table of contents of this proposal Page 11 <br />
