Contractors Project Specific Approach
Upon receipt of the notice-to-proceed on any project, Gooch will
determine the capabilities required for accomplishment. When necessary,
GOOCH will access our consultant contractor resource pool to
support our internal capabilities. These may include engineering services,
material suppliers or contractor services, for example. The following
organization chart is a simplified depiction.
GOOCH maintains a seamless team approach between the government
stakeholder, designer, construction manager and contractor. The
Design-Build approach will eliminate the adversarial relationship
sometimes created by the design-bid-build, low bid environment. We will
always seek the best value for our client.
GOOCH will retain overall project control (scheduling, estimating,
budget, finance) responsibilities. State-of-the-art industry program
management software will be used to enhance record keeping, statuses,
or other analyses. This will include document control (drawings,
contract documents, correspondence, etc.). Program Management
Oversight (PMO) is an option for the stakeholder as a periodic,
independent audit or assessment of GOOCH’s program efficiencies and to
ensure for the stakeholder that all pertinent industry standards are
being met or adhered to for a specialized project.

Methodology
Site Coordination and Management
Team Integration Meeting. Gooch, Balfour Beatty, Bechtel, HDR,
BNSF, Fluor and Parsons have successfully performed dozens of
projects designed by HDR and Parsons spanning more than two decades.
Our team knows what HDR and Parsons expects regarding shop
drawings and submittals. Indeed, we almost know how they think based
on our experience on these very similar projects, thus minimizing the
potential for disruptions to the construction process.
Our success begins with a Construction Team Meeting to establish the
project procedure guidelines that we will follow in implementing the
day-to-day activities on site and the flow of communication between
Gooch, Balfour Beatty, Bechtel, Fluor, HDR and Parsons. The benefit to
our team is that we will share resources, share systems and be housed
together in a common complex with a common objective so that the time
consuming and costly paper trail between the Construction Manager
and its subcontractors is also kept to a minimum. We will have weekly
meetings with the HDR and Parsons representatives, as well as, our
subcontractors to address and review the progress of the work,
schedule, submittals, RFI’s, Pay Applications, and other necessary
details or information.
Construction Schedule. Given the aggressive schedule for this
project, we know that an optimum baseline plan, day one, is key to the
success of the project. Planning our work and working our plan is what
will ultimately provide for a smooth and successful project for your
country. Our approach is to review the schedule daily for a way to save
a day in the schedule and weigh the cost, if any, as an opportunity cost.
The schedule will be updated weekly in advance of our weekly meeting so
that any departures from our plan can be quickly corrected. Our
Construction Schedule will include all phases of construction, from
procurement to final cleanup and punch list. We will provide scheduled
time for Parsons’ review and for City, state or Government inspection.
Communication. Our site coordination and management for your
Project(s) ultimately revolves around communication. We also know
that an Internet accessible project management system, such as Prolog,
dramatically reduces the cycle time for all documented project
communication. We have the IT resources and the experience with Prolog
from many of our projects to fully utilize the software’s capabilities
and make the Project more efficient. Moreover, our entire team will be
on a single network for email and storage of information so that
resources are conserved and the steps required to communicate with
subcontractors are minimized.
27. Nigeria 2012
26
Open and honest communication is a must for a significant project such
as the Benue’s Infrastructure development projects.
The benefit – an unprecedented, coordinated, and cohesive team
working together to build an achievement for your country.
Site Logistics and Staging
With Safety being our number one priority, our site logistic plan
for every site will begin with the fencing of the entire site to
prepare a safe barrier to any adjacencies including the general
public. To further enhance the safety of the site, we will be
providing security personnel on-site during non-working hours.
Three Separate Flow lines of Work. Our site logistics for rail,
roads, highways, commercial & Industrial projects and social
infrastructure will be to approach the project utilizing three separate
flow lines of work, splitting the site in thirds for optimizing the
scheduling activities.
Based on our phasing strategy and our plan to work the three
individual flow lines concurrently, this will allow for the
early turnover of all projects.
With the multiple flow line approach, we will essentially treat the sites
as multiple projects within the confines of the site.
Heavy Equipment and Mobile Task Cranes. Due to the large project
site, the specific contractor requiring the hoisting will utilize mobile
task cranes throughout the project. We anticipate having a crane for
hoisting the structural and miscellaneous steel for bridge
construction, a separate crane for the concrete operations, and a
crane lighting installation.
On-Site Staff Offices. We plan to establish an office complex on all
construction sites. After the clearing and grubbing operation is
complete we will mobilize the paving operation to construct a portion
of the paving to support the office complexes and parking for office
personnel.
Off-Hours Work. Our projects are scheduled primarily using a five (5)
day work week, with Saturday being used as a make-up day for weather or
lost time on the schedule in case a contractor falls behind, or should
we want to accelerate. Our approach is not to work on Sundays or
holidays so that the work force may enjoy a day of rest each week and
time with their families.
28. Nigeria 2012
27
Construction Safety Team. Safety begins with communication. Our plan
will be to over communicate our safety program to every individual
working on or visiting our job sites. Safety is everyone’s responsibility,
however, we are providing a seasoned safety professional, Crenencio
Medrano, to oversee, manage, and implement the safety program and
Owner’s Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) for your projects.
Recently, Crenencio managed the safety program and OCIP program on a
$750 million project with only one lost time accident. Crenencio’s
Leadership provides a huge asset to communicating and implementing the
safety for every individual on all Project sites.
Crenencio will work closely with the Program Manager’s and your
country’s Safety Professionals and Insurance Coordinators to insure
total compliance with OCIP requirements throughout the life of the
project. Crenencio will also lead a project safety team developed from
the different trade contractors on site for safe working conditions, and
to assist in the implementation of the job site safety program.
Our goal at GOOCH is to provide a safe work environment so that we may
send every one of our workers home to their families each and every day.
Technology Capability
GOOCH will have the capability to fully utilize Prolog, either as a stand-
alone, fully customizable project management system or as the Meridian
Project Talk System. GOOCH’s in-house Prolog expert, Jeff Pistor, will
assist the project team in full integration of our team’s systems and any
necessary training. The GOOCH team will also share an e-mail system, a
dedicated Hughes satellite voice, phone and data system and a server to
the extent appropriate.
