22 <br /> WORKLOAD/ABILITY TO MEET SCHEDULE <br /> We understand that time is of the essence and performing the work in a timely manner is key. We will hold meetings with <br /> you and your staff at key points along the development of a given project to ascertain feedback, to update schedules and <br /> budgets, and to apprise of any issues that may transpire through the project development process. <br /> Thomas & Hutton considers the team's workload when assigning staff to serve Orange County. We recognize that well- <br /> timed and effective communication is key to the successful completion of any project. We have assessed our team's future <br /> availability for this project and are confident in successfully completing all tasks required on a reasonable schedule.As <br /> a core principle in our client-care standards, once a team is assigned to a project, we are dedicated to that project until <br /> completed. There are no known major pending projects or any anticipated organizational changes that could impact the <br /> ability to dedicate personnel and resources needed to complete the tasks for this project in a timely manner. <br /> MANAGEMENT OF TIME <br /> At Thomas& Hutton, we strive to be viewed as an extension of your staff. The single biggest factor to our success in <br /> that endeavor is communication. We communicate frequently with our clients, regulatory agencies, and contractors via <br /> telephone, email, and in-person at every opportunity. This mindset guides our approach to accomplishing our work with our <br /> clients. Every project will commence with a kick-off meeting to discuss the project, the known obstacles, the end-users, and <br /> what makes a successful deliverable. Thomas & Hutton's willingness and desire to understand our clients' needs allows us <br /> to proactively resolve potential problems before they become critical issues. Furthermore, we have very close relationships <br /> with agency staff and can estimate permitting timeframes based on "real-time". We also maintain close relationships with <br /> many qualified general contractors to get input on the state of the local construction industry and project construction <br /> schedules. While an unforeseen project cost or delay may arise, we can quickly provide value engineering options and <br /> effectively revise the project schedule to stay within budget and minimize the impact to the schedule. <br /> In 2017, we increased our dedication to quality control and project tracking by developing a new proprietary project <br /> management software, Bloodhound. Our project managers utilize this software to track project progress based on key <br /> milestones, invoices, and deliverables.Additionally, project review by experienced professional staff can be requested for <br /> construction plans, specifications, reports, and other work product reviews across all our offices. Bloodhound also allows us <br /> to leverage Thomas& Hutton's broad and diverse knowledge base to all projects. We strive to manage all our projects from <br /> kickoff to completion using Bloodhound to allocate the appropriate resources and ensure timely completion. We have found <br /> this process enables us to meet client goals and provide high-quality deliverables. <br /> All members identified on the Thomas& Hutton team are available to begin work immediately upon notice to proceed. With <br /> our resources, we are always accessible and will assure that project tasks are efficiently completed according to the project <br /> scope, schedule, and budget. <br /> The following table summarizes the existing workload and availability of the key personnel for the project. <br /> Role/TaskAvailability of Key Personnel <br /> Name <br /> Committed Uncommitted <br /> Dan Jewell, PLA Principal-in-Charge 30 % 70 % <br /> Jeremy Anderson, PLA Project Manager 35 % 65 % <br /> Wendi Ramsden, PLA Landscape Architect 40 % 60 % <br /> Preston Royster, PE Project Engineer 50 % 50 % <br /> TTHOMAS Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to Provide Design Services for the Development of the <br /> s Greene Tract Master Plan I RFQ No:367-005390 I Orange County, NC <br /> HUTTON <br />
