PROJECT UNDERSTANDING <br /> Understanding the Project Scope and <br /> Approach to the Orange County Emergency Services Station Prototype Design <br /> Our Team will work side-by-side with Orange County During Each and Every Step of the <br /> Design Process. <br /> When we are working with the County, our design approach will stress three major points: <br /> teamwork, quality and reliably meeting budgets and schedules. To that end, we believe <br /> that it is the design team's role to successfully accomplish the following: <br /> • Understand the County's expectations and satisfy their programmatic requirements <br /> • Keep the total project in-budget and on-schedule <br /> • Provide for effective coordination and communication <br /> • Engage in timely documentation to disseminate client decisions <br /> • Deliver three high-quality, compelling design solution that meets current <br /> needs and anticipates future growth <br /> This diagram illustrates our team's typical approach to Programming and Schematic Design: <br /> 3 4 5 <br /> Profile Revievv <br /> Services Analyze N—Trands <br /> and space In Govt. <br /> perabons Utilization operations <br /> Assessing Services and Operations Oparatlons <br /> (Phase 1) 13 74 <br /> News Evaluate Option DevelopCapiw <br /> Plan and pnonties improvement Ran <br /> 7 9 <br /> Refine Project -Operational Develop Strategy <br /> Goalsand FZ.e.
