To ensure project completion by the summer of
1996, the Architects
recommended employing a Partnered Fast-Track Delivery System. The Owner
listened. Working very closely with the Contractor, Vendors and Suppliers
and maintaining full-time site representation during the construction phase
resulted in the delivery
of over 750,000 sf of building construction in less
than 16 months. Beneficial Occupancy took place two weeks ahead of schedule
and the project was brought in budget with two Owner-directed Change Orders.
Assembly Building #2 was constructed during phase 2
and was also very
successful.
As FDOT's Architect, Acai worked in an
Indefinite Quantity/Indefinite
Delivery Contract for DOT's District Four. Acai was selected to deliver this
10,000 sf facility using a Design/Build method. The project includes a
harden emergency operations center for District 4, 200- seat multi-purpose
auditorium, credit union with offices, secure motor pool parking lot and a
covered canopy and walkway system for employees.
ACAI is the Design Criteria Professional firm for
this new, state of the art,
240,000 sf facility with the distinction
of being the first project of its
complexity delivered
as a partnered, joint use facility on
City-owned land
as part of an eighty acre master planned educational/ sports complex.
In order to meet an unusually protracted
schedule, ACAI provided full Owner Representation services to
the City of Fort Lauderdale in the delivery
of this
multiple-phase project. Phase 1 includes the Airport's
Administration and Police Substation Building, Phase 2 includes the Air
Rescue Fire Fighting and Personnel Training Facilities and the City's West
Area Emergency Operations Center. Services include master planning,
programming and design criteria documents and owner representation from
programming through move-in.
