0710 - Discusison
0711 -
071101 - Status of project?
071102 -
071103 -    Denis said the airport has been clarifying the project scope to
071104 -    reduce the budget estimate difference of about $10M.  They have
071105 -    removed air conditioning which would have required a lot of piping
071106 -    to provide chilled water.  Escalators have been removed for now.  I
071107 -    suspect these will be added back to get approval from all the
071108 -    governing bodies.
071109 -
071110 -    There is about $10M difference in the estimated cost of the project
071111 -    that is under discussion, from the airport's original budget and
071112 -    the cost developed by Saylor on behalf of KH.
071113 -
071114 -  ..
071115 -
071116 - What are results of Denis' discussions on Welch scope and hours per
071117 - ref SDS 6 1035, and hourly rate at ref SDS 5 3195?
071118 -
071119 -        Denis indicated they have submitted a budget range of $150K to
071120 -        $250K for Communication Metrics.
071121 -
071122 -        The airport has asked about this and Denis explained the risk
071123 -        of the job reviewed on 951109, ref SDS 1 1048 and budgeted on
071124 -        951112, ref SDS 3 8446, that warrants that this support be
071125 -        allocated within the airport's standard fee structure for this
071126 -        project.  Denis advised that SFIA management has noted that
071127 -        other architects do not include a budget for adding metrics to
071128 -        communication.  Denis and I discussed the recognition of
071129 -        budgeting for risk, which is reflected in a higher design fee
071130 -        percentage for the project. Other firms simply incorporate the
071131 -        risk in increased hours by design professionals.

071134 -            communications is primary risk factor. ref SDS 10 4433]

071141 -            results. ref SDS 13 9043]
071142 -
071143 -        I mentioned the possibility of my doing some pro bono meetings
071144 -        to demosntrate for the airport management why Communication
071145 -        Metrics support is helpful on this project.
071146 -
071147 -        The current scope issues being worked by KH and the airport
071148 -        could use this support.
071149 -
071150 -    ..
071151 -    Want hourly rate of $100/Hr.
071152 -
071153 -        Did not discuss this.
071154 -
071155 -    Do it in stages.  Need not commit total package.
071156 -
071157 -        Did not discuss this because Denis seems to have worked out an
071158 -        initial approach.
071159 -
071160 -    Want to demonstrate the new SDS Action Item system.
071161 -
071162 -        We will meet next week to do this.  I will call to confirm a
071163 -        meeting.
071164 -
071165 -    Set up the project Communication Metrics workstation.
071166 -
071167 -        He wants to wait until he has his agreement with the airport.
071168 -
071169 -
071170 - Asked about doing some billable work this month.  Denis does not have
071171 - anything in mind for now.
