This review will be <br />accompanied by a detailed site visit to evaluate existing conditions and identify any <br />potential challenges or critical construction details. <br />Following our internal review, we will coordinate an inspection -specific kick-off meeting with <br />the City. This preliminary meeting provides an opportunity to discuss construction <br />expectations, logistics, and any emerging concerns. These items will be addressed and <br />resolved ahead of the formal pre-construction meeting, which will then be scheduled with <br />all required stakeholders. We anticipate holding the pre-construction meeting within two <br />weeks of the Notice to Proceed for the construction contract. <br />CONSTRUCTION PHASE <br />Once construction begins, Abonmarche—alongside our partner McCormick Engineering— <br />will provide full-time on-site inspection through a Resident Project Representative (RPR). <br />Based on the intensity and complexity of ongoing operations, we may supplement the <br />team with additional full-time inspectors as needed. <br />The RPR will serve as the primary point of contact in the field, ensuring contract compliance, <br />addressing questions or issues in real-time, and maintaining open communication with the <br />contractor and project stakeholders. Oversight and QA/QC responsibilities will be led by the <br />Construction Manager, who will ensure continuous inspection coverage and full <br />documentation of all construction activities in accordance with INDOT and FHWA <br />standards. <br />PROJECT INITIATION <br />8
