1. BOF PROJECT MANAGEMENT
1.1 UTMB Project Life Cycle
The Business Operations and Facilities (BOF) office on the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) campus is responsible to execute captial projects. This guidebook details the processes used by the BOF project teams during project execution.
Projects at UTMB are comprised of many different types of projects including those for research and grants, infrastructure upgrades, information technology (IT) installation and/or upgrades, design-build for new facilities, etc. Projects vary in budget and schedule. Each project is funded by different sources. Despite the variety of these factors, all projects do go through a project life cycle.
The project life cycle for projects is comprised of the following stages and is depicted in the figure below:
Space Request Project Definition Project Initiation Design Construction Closeout
Upon completion of each phase, there is a stage gate process which is the approval process required to move forward, as needed for the project, or to closeout the project as completed to that point.

The process sections of this manual are generally detailed with the following information:
Overview of process for the phase – describes required steps to complete during phase. Roles and responsibilities of the phase – describes the people responsible to complete
actions during the phase. Required documentation for the phase – describes the project documents needed during
phase for approval to proceed. Procurement requirements for the phase, as applicable – describes the procurement
options available during a phase. PM tools applicable to phase – describes the PM tools to be utilized during the phase to
ensure consistency for all projects.
The Project Management Process Checklist should be used as a master checklist for all non-OFPC projects. Figure 1.2 provides a sample of the checklist. See Appendix A1 for the complete checklist document.
Project Delivery Manual

Figure 1.2: Sample Project Management Process Checklist
Details for each project phase are described in Sections 2 – 8 of this manual. Appendix A presents samples of the project documents used during each project phase. Sections 9 – 15 and their corresponding appendices describe the various best practices that should be implemented on a project at some point (or multiple points) throughout a project’s life cycle.
1.2 OFPC Project Execution
Projects with budget greater than $4M (Major Project) are required to be managed by the Office of Facilities Planning and Construction (OFPC). OFPC is a state-level entity that assigns a project manager and team to a project meeting the OFPC project value limit. In doing so, OFPC also charges a management fee to the project.
For projects that become OFPC-managed projects, UTMB will assign a local project manager to interface with OFPC to ensure they are meeting the customer’s needs and requirements. Being a state-level unit, the OFPC assigned project manager may or may not know the UTMB campus or customers as well as a local UTMB project manager does. Having the local UTMB project

PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROCESS CHECKLIST ‐ MASTER STEP AND PROCESS GUIDE ‐ locally managed projects (NON‐OFPC)
FirstStage: PROJECT DEFINITION. May be a formal architectural program, study, or a less formal product based on a customer meeting. Planning has met with customer to ascertain space needs and purpose of project. Projects may be in existing or occupied spaces, or repurpose or reopen vacated spaces; may require new lease space; or, major capital construction.
Portfolio management is responsible for the development of the needs and should explore business plans and funding capability, especially for studies or a formal engineering evaluation of the space.
A project manager is assigned to complete this stage and IN COLLABORATION with the planner(s), adds detail to the program requirements. This includes developing a realistic and comprehensive baseline budget and baseline schedule
SPACE REQUEST. This is the initial request for space changes or new space on the campus. It may come as a Space Request through Portfolio Management or a work order through In‐House Construction. The space request requires approval by Portfolio Management. A planner is assigned to track the request through to approval.

manager liaise with the OFPC project team ensures that the project work will be executed per campus standards.
The UTMB project manager executes multiple functions on an OFPC-managed project including:
Project Manager (PM) Interface and Oversight – to ensure OFPC PM is executing work according to the customer’s needs/requirements (budget, schedule, safety, risk, etc.)
Communications Liaison – to ensure OFPC is making the correct connections and communications with all the various departments affected by the project (including various department heads, mechanical team, safety team, finance and accounting team, purchasing team, etc.)
Quality Assurance – to ensure OFPC executes the project according to all local, state, federal regulations as well as project management plan.
1.3 Facilities and Infrastructure Steering Committee
The Facilities and Infrastructure Steering Committee (FISC) is a committee comprised of a chairman, seven (7) members, and ten (10) staff to committee. The FISC meets monthly on the first Thursday of each month to review and approve various agenda items including real estate (leaseholds and purchases), capital plans, facilities readiness, project updates, and new project approvals.
Projects ideas with first floor use are required to obtain FISC approval prior to further development for final project approval. Additionally, any project idea over $10,000 must have FISC approval before moving forward. The initial project approval is obtained once the Facilities and Portfolio Management (FPM) department obtains a Space Request Form from a requestor. The FPM Executive Vice President (EVP) will submit the project idea at the upcoming FISC meeting to obtain the FISC approval.
Upon further development of the project scope, budget, and schedule (during the Project Definition and Project Initiation Phases), the PM will ultimately submit a project description FISC approval slide which will be used at the monthly FISC meeting to obtain the final FISC approval on the project (over $10K in value).
If the project is approved by FISC, then the PM will use the FISC approval (meeting minutes) as part of the documentation package that is routed for final capital commitment approval (as described in the Project Initiation Phase).
Once a project has started, any change to budget in excess of $10,000 must go through FISC approval before any change order (in Design or Construction Phase) can be approved and processed by the PM.
NOTE: All documentation for FISC approval must be submitted two weeks prior to the FISC monthly meeting.
1.4 Board of Regents
Capital projects over $4 million must be approved by the UTMB FISC and the Board of Regents (BOR). Additionally, each project which includes new construction is reviewed and approved by the BOR prior to the start of construction with a final report submitted after completion of construction. Renovation projects are reviewed by the BOR with a final report submitted after completion of construction. Renovation projects that alter the site or major exterior elements will follow the process for new construction.
Project Delivery Manual
4 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
The Board of Regents meets only four times per calendar year. All materials are previewed by the Executive Committee one to two months prior to the BOR meeting.
1.5 Major and Minor Construction and Repair and Rehabilititation Projects
1.5.1 Major Project
A Major Project is defined as any project that meets one or more of the following criteria:
1) New building construction with a value of $4 million or more, 2) Road, paving, and repair and rehabilitation projects with a value of $4 million or
more, 3) Any project determined by the Board to be architecturally or historically
significant, 4) Any project that is debt financed [(Revenue Financing System (RFS), Tuition
Revenue Bond (TRB), Permanent University Fund (PUF)] regardless of the dollar value except those projects appropriated through the Library, Equipment, Repair and Rehabilitation (LERR) budget, and
5) Any campus planning efforts that are intended to result in a capital project meeting one or more of these criteria. (BoR Rule 80402 – 3)
Major Construction and Repair and Rehabilitation Projects shall follow the Rules and Regulations of the Board of Regents, Rule 80402.
1.5.2 Minor Project
A Minor Project is defined as new building construction and road, paving, and repair and rehabilitation projects with a total project cost of less than $4 million that are not funded in any part with debt. (BoR Rule 80403 – 3)
If the Minor Project is to accommodate facility program changes requiring System approval or approval of the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, then
(i) necessary facility program approvals must be secured in advance of requests for construction approval;
(ii) funds must have been approved through standard System budgetary procedures; and
(iii) the project must have been approved by the VP of BOF, chief business officer, and president. (BoR Rule 80403 – 2 Sec. 2)
The Rules and Regulations do not contemplate and do not authorize any Minor Project to exceed these limitations for any reason at any time during the progress of the Project (e.g. because of change orders, added scope or additional costs). Projects that reasonably could exceed these limitations should be considered Major Projects, be included on the U.T. System Capital Improvement Program and institutional management of the Project must be approved by the Board of Regents or the Chancellor. (Ref. UT System OGC Construction Contracting Guidelines – Revised November 2011; I. A. 2.)

2. SPACE REQUEST
2.1 Process Flow
The Space Request is the initial request for space changes or new space within the UTMB campus. The project idea can be generated by anyone or any group within the UTMB entity. The person or group submitting the request that describes the space need is known as the Customer. A project idea is born when the Customer submits the Space Request Form to FPM team.
The following list identifies the Space Request Phase requirements that must be completed prior to progressing into the Project Definition Phase.
1) FPM receives and processes Space Request submittals. 2) Obtain approval by the FISC for any first floor use or project estimates in excess of
$10K. 3) FPM Planner evaluates and recommends solution. 4) Obtain approvals on Space Request Form from Assistant Vice President (AVP) Portfolio
Management and Vice President (VP) Information Technology.
Ultimately, the project idea will be routed through BOF as a design and construction project or through the in-house construction team to execute. The following process flow will be used to identify if a project idea, as submitted on the Space Request Form, will become a BOF project or an in-house project.

3. PROJECT DEFINITION
During the Project Definition Phase, a Project Manager (PM) and Construction Manager (CM) are assigned to project planning work in collaboration with the FPM Planner to further refine the scope, budget, and schedule for a project. The Project Definition Phase adds detail to the project requirements including a realistic and comprehensive budget and schedule. The PM will assure alignment with Customer expectations during this phase.
3.1 Project Definition Process Flow
During this phase, the required activities are completed as a collaborative effort between the FPM team and the PM/CM. In order to complete the base requirements for this phase, the PM and FPM Planner should meet with the Customer (and/or other key stakeholders) as often as necessary, to produce detailed scope, budget, and schedule documents that will be used in obtaining FISC approval. The following flow chart presents the Project Definition process.
Figure 3.1 – Project Definition Process Flow
The steps identified in this process flow are and also as identified on the Project Management Process Checklist are as follows:
1) The PM, CM, and Interiors Manager (IM) assigned to work with FPM planner to further develop scope, budget, and schedule.
2) FPM Planner and PM/CM/IM meet with Customer to: a. Determine Customer’s desired occupancy date. b. Capture preliminary scope which includes changes in space, relocations, added
space. 3) Design and Construction (D&C) develops Rough Order Magnitude (ROM) budget based
on experience or square foot (SF) basis. 4) Provide ROM budget to Customer for funding identification purposes. 5) Identify if the space is a leasehold.
Align scope, budget, and schedule with Customer
expectations.
Project Delivery Manual

a. If leasehold, FPM to provide draft lease to D&C for review of delivery, design, and construction business terms and conditions.
b. The Director of Real Estate will provide coordination with the landlord and Customer.
NOTE: Although not listed as a required activity for this phase, the PM and FPM Planner should develop a tentative move plan for a space request form that indicates existing used space will be renovated. Pre-planning the move during this phase ensures that the PM, Customer, and key stakeholder departments are aligned with identified swing space needs. Move coordination efforts are further detailed in Section 6, Construction Execution.
3.2 Project Definition Roles and Responsibilities
During the Project Definition Phase, the following roles will be involved. The PM should ensure that these key roles are engaged during the Project Definition Phase so that the refined scope, budget, and schedule accurately reflect requirements from the various UTMB departments as well as the final Customer needs.
ROLE RESPONSIBILITY
Customer Person, department, or entity who submitted the project request. The Customer is generally also the end user of the finished project. The Customer is the point of contact for the FPM and PM for the project.
Stakeholder Any person, department, or entity that will be involved with or be affected by any activity during project execution. The Customer is also a Stakeholder. See description in Section 3.4 and Section 9.2 for additional information on common stakeholders.
Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) Department
Common stakeholder the FPM Planner and PM should engage with to determine any EHS items that could impact project so that ROM accounts for those issues, as needed.
Property Services Common stakeholder the FPM Planner and PM should engage with to determine any Property Services items that could impact project so that ROM accounts for those issues, as needed.
Facilities and Portfolio Management (FPM)
Entity responsible to provide all documentation, generated to date, to the assigned Project Manager. FPM continues to collaborate with the PM through the Project Definition Phase.
FPM Planner Person within FPM entity who works with the PM to transition project to the BOF team. The Planner works with the PM during this phase to generate a project move plan, as

3.3 Required Documentation for Project Definition Phase
During the Project Definition Phase, the scope detail and budget information are refined. The ROM budget is the outcome of this process. Appendix A3 provides a sample of a ROM budget.
3.4 Key Elements of Project Definition Phase
3.4.1 Stakeholder Identification and Management
At this point, in the Project Definition Phase, the PM should be assembling the list of standing DELIVERY stakeholders, by name, and be scheduling a preliminary scope meeting with them. The purpose of the meeting is to enlist and alert the campus staff for a successful project delivery. Standing DELIVERY stakeholders participate in writing specifications,
setting schedules, and assisting with monitoring progress of design and construction.
DELIVERY stakeholders are also Customers! They depend on the project delivery by the PM to meet their needs, as they will eventually be operating the newly created spaces. Each project should include prior dialogue with the following campus departments for all projects:
Environmental Health & Safety – may include radiation and chemical safety. Property Services – maintenance manager affected by the project.
Successful DELIVERY includes engaging the Customer and
stakeholders early.
Project Delivery Manual
10 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Utilities – power, water, gas, HVAC, and related exterior services. Information Technology – all communications and datat systems from PCs to
fiber-optic transmission. Purchasing – Professional Service Proposals (Indefinite Delivery Indefinite
Quantity [IDIQ], Request For Qualifications [RFQ], Direct Appointment) and Agreements, Construction delivery methods (Job Order Contract [JOC], Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing [MEP] Single Trade, Competitive Sealed Proposal [CSP], etc.) and Agreements (procedural impacts).
PM Finance – funding and finance interface (procedural impacts). UT Police – badging, locks, contractor access, site security, traffic control.
See Section 9 for additional information regarding stakeholder management.
3.4.2 Risk Management
It is suggested, during the Project Definition Phase, that the FPM Planner and the PM complete an initial risk assessment for the project to identify key risks that could pose severe or significant risks to the scope, budget, or schedule of the project (see Section 12). The Project Risk Assessment should be conducted prior to final scope, budget, and schedule development to ensure high risk issues are incorporated into those documents prior to the start of the project. The Project Risk Assessment is located on the shared drive/forms folder. A copy is supplied in Appendix F of this manual.
3.4.3 Scope, Budget, and Schedule
During the Project Definition Phase, the PM is directly involved with the refinement of the scope, budget, and schedule. Utilizing the tools describing development of the scope, budget, and schedule (see Sections 14 and 15), the PM can ensure the baseline information meets the Customer requirements and approvals are obtained efficiently.

4. PROJECT INITIATION
4.1 Project Initiation Process Flow
Project Initiation is a multi-step process. During the first stage, the PM aligns the budget and schedule with the Customer’s scope expectations. The PM engages design and construction (D&C) team members to complete the final scope, budget, and schedule which will feed into the FISC approval process. It is during this stage that the PM ensures the delivery stakeholders are engaged so that key items are addressed in the final scope, budget, and schedule documents.
The second stage of the Project Initiation Phase commences once the final scope, budget, and schedule documents are approved by the Customer and subsequently FISC. Once the project is approved, the PM will establish the BOF and PeopleSoft project numbers.
The following flow diagram presents the Project Initiation process.

5.2 Design Phase Procurements
The PM needs to work with the procurement department in order to get an A/E Firm under contract for a project. The PM should ensure that the correct procurement forms are used and the correct procurement processes are followed for all A/E and subsequent construction procurements. The procurement options during the Design Phase include:
5.2.1 Indefinite Definition, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) - Professional Services Study Project (Non-CCL) or Construction Cost Limitation (CCL)
UTMB has established IDIQ Professional Services Agreements with qualified A/E Firms for services to be utilized as needed for Minor Projects, unless otherwise approved. The IDIQ Agreements have been executed for Architectural Professional Services in the categories of Administrative, Academic & Classroom, Clinics, Hospital, Programming and Research; and Engineering Professional Services in the disciplines of Civil, Energy, Life Safety, MEP, and Structural. A/E IDIQ Agreements may not exceed $1 million dollars during the term of the Agreement or any renew/extension thereof. When reviewing the qualifications of the IDIQ A/E Firms, the PM should be mindful of the
Texas Procurement Law requires selections for
professional services to be based on qualifications. Fees
are negotiated after appointment and may not result from a competitive bid process.
Project Delivery Manual
20 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
remaining balance of the Agreement of the selected A/E. If this type of procurement is used, the PM issues a RFP for a Study Project (Non-CCL) or a Construction Cost Limitation (CCL) Fee Schedule for a CCL Project. The PM completes an EAJ for the A/E justification and PO Checklist, these along with other required documents are submitted to the TC for the issuance of a Purchase Requisition. This work will become part of the established Agreement and a PO will be issued against that Agreement to authorize work to begin.
Required documents for Purchase Requisition:

Project Delivery Manual
22 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
1) Project kickoff 2) Schematic design and review 3) Design development and review 4) Construction Document development, review, and issuance of final documents for
procurement
5.3.1 Project Kickoff
Regardless of the type of project, upon procurement of the A/E firm, the PM should promptly initiate a project kickoff meeting with the Customer, stakeholders, A/E team, and the project team to review the project’s scope, budget, and schedule with all parties present. Items to review with project team during kickoff meeting include:
General Information (contract, project number, meeting dates/time) Introduction of project team members (roles and responsibilities) and overall
project organization (including consultants) Review of Customer Agreement (scope, budget, schedule, milestones) Safety expectations Project protocols (safety, quality, cost reporting, document control, etc.) Questions and answers Action items
Utilizing the established best practice, the PM should ensure a meeting agenda is issued prior to the meeting and minutes are recorded and distributed upon conclusion of the meeting.
5.3.2 Schematic Design Activities
During the SD stage, the PM will need to work with stakeholders (maintenance, utilities, etc.) to confirm existing conditions in the project’s intended work area. Potential scope risks should be identified so that the A/E can ensure design captures the required resolution. Areas of concern include mechanical needs, electrical needs, information services needs, plumbing needs, etc.
5.3.2.1 Hazmat Survey
Projects of a renovation nature may be required to conduct a hazmat survey if the project work has the potential to disturb existing material. As the A/E firm conducts the Schematic Design stage, the PM should identify if the design would potentially disturb existing materials in the project space. If it is likely, the PM will need to ensure a hazmat survey is conducted.
Before procuring a service provider to complete a hazmat survey, the PM should consult with the EHS department to cross check the EHS database of surveys to identify if a hazmat survey exists for the location of the project. If a survey does exist, the PM will provide the documentation for project records. If a survey does not exist, the PM will need to work with the Purchasing department to hire a survey company to complete a survey. All final survey documentation should be included in the project files and forwarded to the EHS department in order for the survey database to be updated.
5.3.2.2 Air Balance Test
Projects of a renovation nature also need to have air balance tests conducted before and after construction. Air balance tests should also be conducted on
Project Delivery Manual
23 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
swing space areas that will temporarily house employees during the construction period. The PM should work with the Property Services department to ensure the air balance tests are conducted, as needed.
At the end of the project, during the Construction phase, the PM needs to ensure that post-construction air balance tests are conducted during the inspection process. Air balance tests can be conducted by the UTMB mechanical department or by third-party contractor, as appropriate for project size.
5.3.3 Design Reviews
The FPM Planner and PM continue to collaborate through the Design Phase to ensure Customer needs are embodied in the design product. The PM takes the lead of all Customer communications and manages dialogue on reviews and approvals. Additionally, leadership will review documents at SD and DD 95% completion for compliance with the master plan objectives and Customer business plan conformity.
Prior to design review meetings, the PM should ensure that the notice for the design review has been issued (two weeks prior to meeting) and that the design documents are issued to the specified meeting attendees prior to the meeting. The set list of meeting attendees is as documented on the Notice for Review Meeting form. This list is comprised of:
Customer* BOF Construction Manager* Environment Health and Safety* Environmental Services Police Telecommunications* Innerface Architectural Signage Utilities* Clinical Equipment Services Business Operations & Facilities (PM, CM, AVP, PD D&C) Purchasing Property Services/Maintenance* Infectious Diseases Interiors
Note: Recipients of the design documents are as noted by an asterisk and the specific person is named on the notice form. See Appendix A5 for sample Notice for Design Review.
Typically, the design documents are issued for review and comments are returned to the PM prior to the scheduled review meeting, as noted on the notice for meeting document that is issued. The PM reviews the comments on the design documents and sets the meeting agenda to discuss pertinent items from the document review process, at a minimum.
Review meetings required during design phase include:
Schematic Design – Ensures site plan compliance and leasehold (build-to-suit) lease and business plan match to site utilization. NOTE: At the 95% SD review, VP BOF approval is required before continuing design.
95% Design Development – Ensures budget and scope are in conformance and checks program objective to design prior to construction documents. NOTE: At

5.6 Key Elements of the Design Phase
5.6.1 Project Organization
Implementation of the project organization prior to commencement of the design phase is key to the success of a project. Project organization includes project kickoff and goal alignment, Customer/stakeholder management, document control, and project reporting (additional detail provided in Section 9). It is suggested that the PM conduct not only the project kickoff meeting with the Customer and entire project team, but also hold an
Project Delivery Manual
27 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
internal BOF project kickoff team meeting to establish project needs and set responsibilities for each project team member.
5.6.2 Safety
Safety is one of the key performance indicators for any project. The PM should not only ensure the project team utilizes safety practices in day-to-day operations of a project, but also ensure that UTMB safety requirements are integrated into the final design deliverables. Additional information on safety related best practices is located in Section 11.
5.6.3 Quality
Quality, as described in Section 13 and Appendix G, should be an integral part of a project. During the Design Phase, key aspects of quality management that should be implemented include activities from all steps in the Plan-Act-Control-Excel process.
During the planning step, the PM should ensure that the A/E firm selected during the procurement process is qualified and competent to complete the scope of work for the project. Additionally, performance criteria for the A/E contract should be established and monitored throughout the design process. Maintaining document records of all design reviews, ensuring quality checks are conducted on final deliverables, and participating in management reviews on the project are all ways the PM can ensure quality is integrated throughout all aspects of the project.
5.6.4 Estimating
Estimating throughout the design and procurement process is essential to scope control and budget accountability. As a minimum, one estimate should be prepared for any job over $100,000 of construction scope, including contingencies BEFORE it is put out for solicitation or submitted to the JOC / MEP Contractor for pricing. The estimate is usually developed during the 50% CD period, but may be earlier or later.
The estimate may be done in-house using RS Means if the project will be completed under the JOC delivery method. Other delivery methods, including CSP jobs, may be estimated on a SF basis by the design professional involved. Note: The RS Means or SF estimate is part of meeting with the Customer at the Project Initiation meeting.
For any construction exceeding $250,000, there should be three estimates done for the record:
RS Means or SF estimate prior to Project Initiation 95% DD Review by 3rd party (design professional acceptable) 95% CD Review by 3rd party (design professional acceptable; 3rd party estimator
preferred)
The project should not proceed when any estimate indicates that the market will drive the construction line item over budget BEFORE contingency is applied.

6. PROJECT EXECUTION - CONSTRUCTION PHASE
The Construction Phase begins once the construction documents are complete and ready for solicitiation. The construction procurement will result in an Agreement being issued to a contractor who will then proceed with execution of the construction work.
The PM and FPM Planner continue to collaborate through the Construction Phase of the project through to occupancy of the space to ensure Customer needs are captured in the final product. During the Construction Phase, a CM is appointed as owner’s representative of the project work and is the main point of contact for the contractor. However, the PM continues to be the main point of contact for all Customer and A/E team communications and reporting for the project and should stay engaged on the project during this phase.
The Construction Phase is comprised of two main stages: 1) Construction Procurement (Solicitation Process) and 2) Construction Execution. Both stages contain multiple activities to complete.
6.1 Construction Procurement
The Construction Documents generated at the end of the Design Phase will be used for procurement of the construction contractor. The Construction Procurement Methods include:
6.1.1 Job Order Contract (JOC) Procurement
UTMB Purchasing has established Agreements with qualified contractors for minor construction, repair, rehabilitiation and/or alteration projects in the categories of Healthcare and Academic, Research and Business. UTMB can request RS Means pricing from the appropriate JOC Contractor for projects under $300,000. JOC Projects over $300,000 require additional approvals from the AVP of Design and Construction.
Work may begin after a UTMB Purchase Requisition has been entered and a Notice to Proceed (NTP) or PO has been issued.
Required documents for Purchase Requisition:
Job Order Contract (JOC) o Request for Pricing (RFP) Form - signed o RS Means Estimate to include: JOC Proposal Approval Form – signed RS Means Proposal Contractor’s Non-Pre-Priced Items form with back-up, if applicable Subcontractor’s Non-Pre-Priced Items form with back-up, if

Figure 6.1 presents the procurement process flow for construction. The PM will work with the Purchasing department and the TC will ensure the documents flow through the process. Regardless of the procurement type, the PM is the lead for ensuring Agreeements are issued for construction.
Note: Construction procurements, other than JOC, typically take 3-4 months to complete. The PM needs to ensure this time constraint is included in the schedule and Purchasing is alerted to the project early in the design phase. The Purchasing department can provide specific detail on the schedule associated with each part of the construction procurement process.
Always check with Purchasing to make sure the most recent Purchasing Forms are used. (Reference Appendix A9 Purchasing Links and Forms)

6.2 Construction Execution
Construction Execution has three main stages: 1) Pre-work, 2) Execution; and 3) Substantial Completion/Final Acceptance. Note: Once the project goes to the execution stage, the CM will be the person who ensures the work activities are completed; however, the PM needs to stay engaged in the project for communication and reporting purposes. The CM and PM should both ensure there is an open communication channel with the other.
Figure 6.2 presents the construction execution process flow.
6.2.1 Preconstruction Activities
The following subsections detail key activities during pre-construction. This is not an exhaustive description of activities but a highlight of the key functions. List items highlighted in bold are further detailed in the subsections below.
The goal of the pre-work stage is to get the site ready for construction. During the pre-work stage, the CM will complete the following activities:
CM review of construction area Initial move-out coordination
o Removal of assets, if not already done by others Development of keying package for construction
o Changing cores for construction CM issues electronic forms to contractor Pre-construction meeting Infection Control Risk Assessment
6.2.1.1 Move-out Coordination
Move coordination is a key activity that starts in the preconstruction phase with move-out of existing space but finishes once construction is complete with the final move-in of employees into the new space. Move-out coordination will only need to be conducted for projects with scope to renovate existing space. New construction will not have a move-out requirement.
During the pre-construction phase, the PM, CM, and IM should conduct a move coordination meeting which includes attendees from the various stakeholder departments. Coordination effort between the project team and the various departments is needed to ensure that employees are relocated to a suitable temporary working area and a project’s space/area is cleared of all items so construction can begin.
The move coordination meeting should include the following topics, as applicable to the project. A sample move coordination checklist is provided in Appendix A6.
Information on temporary swing space Keying status Packing office contents Labeling instructions for packing boxes and furniture Computer and voice move instructions Notifications to UTMB departments regarding move-out process and
utilization of temporary space Responsible parties for various move activities Asset disposition during move-out process (move, store, dispose) Move schedule
Project Delivery Manual

35 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Key points to understand regarding the move coordination:
Usually done twice (one for move out, one for move in). Sometimes others complete move out without involvement of project team. If move out was conducted by others, the CM should confirm the project space is ready during review of the project space.
Attendees at move coordination meeting should include: PM, CM, IM, furniture teams, IS, IT, institutional mover, Customer, voice/data/desktop, environmental services, Contractor.
Move out coordination determines where furniture and other items will be stored or disposed.
6.2.1.2 Keying for Construction
The keying process is a multi-step process which begins in the pre-construction stage with the removal of existing key cores and installation of the construction cores. Installation of new key locks for the space will be completed after construction is complete (see Section 6.2.2.6). The two key roles throughout the keying process are the Construction Manager and the Key Control Officer (KCO), which is typically the Team Coordinator.
The following table details the required steps and responsible parties for the keying process that is conducted during the pre-construction stage.

6.2.1.3 Pre-Construction Meeting
A pre-construction meeting is conducted by the CM prior to the start of construction. The intent of the meeting is to review the construction plan with the Customer, contractor, stakeholders, and project team, including IM, to ensure everyone is on the same page going forward. The meeting agenda generally includes the following discussion points. A sample pre-construction meeting document package is provided in Appendix A6.

6.2.1.4 Infection Control Risk Assessment
The Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) should be completed during the pre-construction stage. The contractor completes the assessment document detailing the plans of action for mitigating all ICRA items. The assessment is submitted to the PM and CM for approval. During the course of the construction execution, the CM should ensure the contractor implements the noted plans of action on the ICRA.
6.2.2 Construction Execution
Once the project space has been cleared and deemed ready for construction, the keys have been set for construction use, and the pre-construction meeting has been held, execution of the work can commence.
Project Delivery Manual
37 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Construction execution is a complex stage of the project. There are daily and weekly reporting requirements as well as the potential for change orders for scope items that need to be modified during the course of completing the construction. The following subsections describe the items/activities the CM and PM will need to monitor during construction and include these items:
Safety Toolbox Meetings Construction Daily Report Interim Life Safety Measures Project Progress Meetings Request for Services Permitting, Inspections, Testing Keying Process Move Coordination Commissioning
6.2.2.1 Safety Toolbox Meetings
It is recommended that the CM meet the construction superintendent and crew on the first day of field work to confirm the contractor establishes the safety culture of the project from the start. This includes holding daily toolbox safety moments prior to each day’s work activities and submittal of the Construction Daily Report which includes the Interim Life Safety Measures (ILSM) daily checklist.
The CM should also ensure that the contractor’s work crew meet the PPE requirements for the project. Note: The Contractor should provide a Safety Plan to the PM/CM prior to the commencement of any work (generated as part of the bid process). The PM and/or CM should ensure the contractor’s safety plan meets contract requirements for working in a healthcare environment. See Section 11 for information on Safety.
6.2.2.2 Construction Daily Report
As established during the preconstruction meeting, the construction contractor is required to provide a Construction Daily Report. The PM/CM should ensure the construction contractor completes the daily report and submits it daily at a predefined time. The CM is responsible to review the report, distribute and file the report, and follow up on issues noted in the report.
6.2.2.1 Interim Life Safety Measures
The ILSM is a required checklist to be completed daily by the construction contractor and submitted with the Construction Daily Report. The PM and CM should review the checklists to identify if there are any non compliance issues and to confirm that corrective actions have been identified and implemented.
6.2.2.2 Project Progress Meetings
The project progress meeting is conducted weekly. The meeting is conducted with the contractor’s superintendent and the A/E project representative in attendance (in person or by phone) with the CM. Additional attendees of the meeting should include the PM and IM, as needed or desired.
Project Delivery Manual
38 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
The contractor is responsible to conduct the meeting via the agenda and produce the meeting minutes. Generally, the progress meeting will include the following agenda items:
Review of construction progress, safety, schedule, and budget Review of payment applications Review RFI log Review Change Request/Order log Review submittals
The CM is responsible to approve the meeting minutes while the PM is responsible to ensure distribution of the minutes.
6.2.2.3 Request for Services
A Request for Services form should be submitted to the UTMB Police department for any security services needed for the project.
6.2.2.4 Permits
During the course of construction, the following types of permits may be required.
Above ceiling work permit Hot work permits Off-campus projects may require city building permits
6.2.2.5 Required Inspections and Tests
A variety of inspections and tests will be conducted prior to construction completion. The CM should ensure that the Customer and stakeholders are invited to attend the inspections and tests at their availability. At a minimum, the following tests and inspections will be conducted on projects.
Inspections – Inspections may be conducted in a series based on project footprint.
o Pre-existing Conditions Assessment/Inspection o Utility Trench Cover-up Inspection o Concrete Pre-pour Inspection o Wall Cover-up Inspections o Overhead Inspections
Fire Alarm Testing Functional Test Report, which generally includes
o Mechanical o Electrical o Plumbing o Process Piping o Controls o Fire Protection and Life Safety o Sprinklers o AV Equipment o Telecommunications o Air balance o Others as noted by contract SOW
Interim Life Safety Inspection - At 80% construction completion, the CM needs to schedule a life safety walk-through for the project.
Project Delivery Manual
39 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Representatives from EHS, Maintenance, and the life safety committee should all be present for this inspection.
Pre-substantial completion / punch list inspection
NOTE: JOC projects are required to keep meeting minutes for inspections and distribute the next day. Additionally, if there is any decision point that comes out of the inspection meeting, the CM needs to ensure that the issue(s) goes through the appropriate process (Change Proposal, CO, RFI, etc.) to address it.
6.2.2.6 Keying Process
Eight weeks prior to construction completion, the CM will need to proceed with the keying process for installation of new key locks for the space.
The following table details the required steps and responsible parties in the keying process during the construction execution stage.

6.2.2.7 Move-In Coordination
Move coordination is another key activity that starts in the preconstruction phase with a move-out coordination meeting but finishes with a move-in coordination once construction is complete. The move-in coordination meeting is held by the PM, CM, and IM and includes attendees from the various stakeholder departments. Coordination efforts between the project team and the various departments is needed to ensure that final move in is conducted smoothly and efficiently.
The move coordination meeting is conducted prior to substantial completion while the physical move happens once substantial completion has been reached (see Section 6.2.3.4).
Key points to understand regarding the move-in coordination:
For renovated space, efforts will account for items removed during move-out process. For both renovated space and new construction, the coordination meeting will ensure all parties involved with the move-in activities understand the schedule and their role.
Attendees at move coordination meeting should include: PM, CM, IM, furniture teams, IS, IT, institutional mover, Customer, voice/data/desktop, environmental services, Contractor.
Project Delivery Manual
41 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Move-in coordination includes items from housekeeping, materials management (hand sanitizer, toilet paper, paper towel holders, etc.) Need to ensure owner furnished, contractor installed (OFCI) items are included in construction schedule as these items are installed upon construction completion.
6.2.2.8 Commissioning

Once commissiong is complete, the project moves into the substantial completion stage.
6.2.3 Substantial Completion/Final Acceptance
Substantial Completion is the point in the delivery of a project that marks the beginning of the owner’s responsibility for the operation of the project. The American Institute of Architects (AIA) defines substantial completion as “the stage in the progress of the Work where the Work or designated portion is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use.” Substantial Completion demands accuracy, compliance, and fairness.
Key activities to complete during the Substantial Completion stage include:
Issue Certificate of Substantial Completion Transfer of billings for Operational Utilities and services to the Owner for off-site
projects Notify Operations and Maintenance (O&M) to add the work to their responsibility
and re-key facility Determine what work remains for completion or correction based upon Design
Team walk through
Project Delivery Manual
42 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Begin Closeout activities (testing, equipment startup, operations training, record documentation)
Schedule 1-year warranty walk-through
6.2.3.1 Substantial Complete/Project Closeout
When the project is deemed substantially complete, the PM will work to begin project closeout from a financial and administrative standpoint, as per Section 8, Project Closeout. In parallel, the CM continues to progress the construction work through to final acceptance.
6.2.3.2 Substantial Completion Inspection/Punch List/Final Acceptance
Prior to substantial completion, the CM schedules the Substantial Completion Inspection walk-through. All punch list items are identified on the inspection walk-through. The CM will additionally submit a letter of Notice of Substantial Completion to the contractor noting the completion date for all punch list items. The notification also requests the contractor to provide:
As built drawings O&M manuals UTMB keys Final payment releases, as noted by contract
Upon completion of the punch list items and receipt of the required contract documentation, the PM/CM will provide a Final Acceptance Letter to the contractor. Note: Due to timing on receipt of documents and final invoice from the contractor, Final Acceptance notification may be made later in sequence of project activities.
6.2.3.3 Owner Furnished Contractor Installed Items
The CM needs to ensure that the OFCI items are installed by the contractor or in-house construction department prior to Customer moving into the new or modified space.
6.2.3.4 Keying/Moving Coordination/Final Move In
The CM will oversee the keying process to ensure that the new or modified space has been rekeyed prior to Customer move-in. Additionally, the CM will need to conduct a move coordination meeting to confirm all parties involved with installing final furniture/fixtures has scheduled or completed the work.
6.3 Construction Contract Administration
While the CM is responsible to oversee all of the construction related work, the PM is ultimately responsible to manage the contract from start to finish. During the internal project kickoff, the PM and CM should identify who will be responsible for each contract administration item/activity for a given project. Contract management includes the following key items:
Progress Meetings – as noted in Section 6.2.2.2. Construction Daily Report/Daily Construction Interim Life Safety Measures – as noted in
Section 6.2.2.1. Request for Information – incoming information request from the contractor.
Project Delivery Manual
43 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0

6.6 Key Elements of the Construction Phase
6.6.1 Project Organization
Implementation of the project organization starts prior to commencement of the design phase but continues through the construction phase. Conducting a well organized pre-construction meeting will likely set the stage for the success of the construction phase. Additionally, good document control during the construction phase is a must. There will likely be a volumous amount of incoming and outgoing documents during construction and having an established process and file system will help a PM/CM keep scope on budget and schedule. See Section 9 for additional information on project organization.
6.6.2 Safety
Safety is one of the key performance indicators for any project. The PM anc CM should not only ensure the project team utilizes safety practices in day-to-day operations of the construction phase, but also ensure that UTMB safety requirements are met by all construction contractors and vendors. Additional information on safety related best practices is located in Section 11.
6.6.3 Quality
Quality, as described in Section 13 and Appendix G, should be an integral part of a project. Key aspects of quality management that should be implemented throughout the Construction Phase include activities from all steps in the Plan-Act-Control-Excel process.
Project Delivery Manual
47 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
During the planning step, the PM should ensure that the construction contractor selected during the procurement process is qualified and competent to complete the scope of work for the project. Additionally, performance criteria for the construction contract should be established and monitored throughout construction execution. Maintaining document records of all construction activities (meetings, inspections, testing, etc.), ensuring quality checks are conducted on final installed products, and participating in management reviews on the project are all ways the PM and CM can ensure quality is integrated throughout all aspects of construction.
6.6.4 Change Management
Change management will be a key focal point during construction with various FO, CP, and CO requests coming in for scope changes. It is imperative that the PM and CM utilize sound change management skills to ensure the project meets the final Customer expectation/need without exceeding budget or schedule. Section 7 describes the change management process and Appendix C describes change management best practices.

7. CHANGE CONTROL MANAGEMENT
7.1 Change Control Overview
The contract is the key document used to manage scope, budget, and schedule on a project. Change orders on a project are a risk that can adversely affect budget and schedule and as such, should be properly managed. Project managers should have an in-depth understanding of the terms and conditions of the contract as well as the scope of work. The PM must also be familiar with the contractual requirements for managing change orders, including any limitations within the contract, and understand any time constraints on requesting a change order.
Scope control refers to a form of baseline control similar to that used to control the schedule and budget. Scope control involves the establishment and control of a well-defined technical baseline to ensure that the work performed meets the criteria required by the contract. Change control refers to the process used to identify, review, analyze, and incorporate changes to any project baseline, including scope, cost, or schedule.
As part of the pre-construction meeting, the PM or CM should discuss the change process with both the Customer and contractors to ensure a mutual understanding of the process.
For additional best practice information on change control, refer to Appendix C.
7.2 Change Order Process
Change management is important during both the Design Phase and the Construction Phase. The following subsections detail the process for each phase.
7.2.1 Design Phase Change Orders
If a project requires a change order during the Design Phase, the following steps will need to be completed. Figure 7.1 shows the process flow for Design Phase change orders.
1) Need for change in budget is identified. 2) Scope Change Authorization Form is completed and submitted to Vice President,
Business Operations and Facilities for approval. 3) Once the Scope Change Authorization is approved, PM solicits a Change
Proposal from the A/E firm for pricing. a. The Scope Change Authorization is a 2-step form (one for design and the
second for construction – since scope change may likely require the A/E to provide or modify design documents).
b. Form should be edited to remove the signature line for UTMB Chief Business Officer if the price is below $100,000.
c. PM completes the form and submits it for initial review/approval by AVP for Design and Construction prior to submitting for final signature.
4) If the change order is for more than $10,000, the PM will need to additionally route the approval through for FISC approval before proceeding.
5) Once the Scope Change Authorization is approved, a change order request needs to be entered online for IDIQ A/E Services in accordance with the procurement procedures; or an Amendment to the A/E Agreement will need to be executed, upon receipt of fully executed Amendment, the change order request needs to be entered online in accordance with the procurement procedures.
6) Purchasing issues the PO Change Order.
Project Delivery Manual
50 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
7) PM needs to update the BOF database with the approved budget change information.
Figure 7.1 – Design Phase Change Management Process
7.2.2 Construction Phase Change Orders
During the Construction Phase, the change order process can vary. The CM can issue a Field Order which will address immediate unforeseen issues that arise on the jobsite. Change Orders are issued to confirm FO issued and to request new scope items that require additional budget. Change management during the Construction Phase generally follows the process as described below. Figure 7.2 presents the process flow for construction.
1) Issue is identified that results in additional scope requiring a change in budget. a. Contractor generated RFI for directive/input for resolving an issue b. CM generated request for design assistance
2) Determing if the work associated with the change requires pricing before the work is executed.
a. If not, CM issues a FO after concurrence of the scope with the PM and Customer. If FO issued for work that is not part of contract scope of work, CM requests contractor to submit Change Proposal for work.
b. If so, CM issues RFP for the scope change and asks for a Change Proposal from the contractor.
3) Contractor submits a Change Proposal for the scope of work. a. The A/E will review and provide comment/recommendation to the CM. b. The PM, CM, and Program Director of Construction review and approve
the Change Proposal prior to work proceeding. 4) Change of Scope Justification is completed and submitted to appropriate
Program Director, D&C for approval prior to obtaining approval and funding. 5) Once Change of Scope Justification is approved, PM generates the Scope
Change Authorization Form (using appropriate form based on value). 6) If the change order is for more than $10,000, the PM will need to route the
approval through AVP, D&C prior to submittal to FISC for approval, if needed. 7) If the CO is approved, a change order request needs to be entered for
Purchasing in accordance with the procurement procedures. 8) Purchasing issues the PO Change Order.
Note: Change Orders cannot be approved by the PM/CM using the construction or project contingency funds, unless otherwise approved by management. Construction contingency is intended to be used for small Field Order type items only.
Project Delivery Manual
51 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Signature limits: Program Directors, D&C – up to $10,000. Anything over $10,000 must be preapproved by the AVP Design and Construction prior to submittal to FISC for approval.
Change order work cannot proceed without approval.
Change Orders over 10% of CCL require either a Rider to the bond or a Letter from the Bonding Company indicating that the increase amount is covered under the current performance and payment bond and copies of such must be sent to Purchasing with the Change Order Request.

7.5 Key Elements of Change Management
7.5.1 Project Organization
Document control for all change orders during both the Design Phase and Construction Phase is an important task.
7.5.2 Budget and Schedule Control
Change orders will impact budget and are likely to impact schedule if not processed timely. It is important for the PM and CM to utilize best practice tools for budget and schedule management (see Sections 14 and 15) during the change management process. It may be likely that the baseline budget and schedule will be updated per a change order.
7.5.3 Project Finances
As COs are processed, a PO amendment will be issued to the contractor. The PM will need to ensure the budget information in the BOF database is updated timely. Additionally, as invoices are received, the PM and CM will need to confirm the invoiced amounts are billed according to change order documents.

8. PROJECT CLOSEOUT
Project closeout is the final step in completing a successful, well-managed project and begins once construction reaches substantial completion. The close-out process enables the BOF Finance team to collect unexpended balances of capital from the funding lines of a project and return it to the UTMB Capital Finance for application against other requirements. Close-out is project specific and schedule driven. The BOF Capital Project Close-out Procedure details both the general project management close-out process and the financial close-out process and should be referenced for the specific actions required to progress close-out. Appendix D contains the complete procedure.
The closeout process flow is as shown in Figure 8.1.
8.1 Substantial Completion/Final Completion/Closeout
At the point of substantial completion, the CM executes construction closeout, as described in Section 6, while the PM initiates the general and project management closeout process and the financial closeout process, as described in this section.
The substantial completion date, as noted in the construction contract and reported on the PSR, is the anchor date for all further close-out activity planning. In anticipation of substantial completion, the PM will need to conduct the following activities:
Ensure PSR accurately reflects the Substantial Completion date. Ensure all POs based on current requisitions are entered, as needed. Check the completion schedule and verify forecast of closeout. Validate existing encumbrances and expenses. Ensure any Change Proposals or Change Orders are in process for approvals. Annotate PSR with forecast comments for remaining encumbrances. Forecast Final Completion on PSR, with notes as needed (typically 30 days from date of
Substantial Completion).
Upon reaching substantial completion, the PM updates their project to a “Status 6” in the PSR and proceeds with providing BOF Finance with the document package that notifies them of the status change (see Section 8.1.1.1).
Final completion is reached once the Contractor has contractually completed all work and submitted final payment requests. During final completion, the PM will verify the final incoming payment requests and approve for payment. Issues affecting final closeout should be noted on the PSR. Once a project reaches the financial closeout date, the PM will work with BOF Finance to ensure the remainder of closeout documents are submitted (see Section 8.1.1.2 for details).
Project Delivery Manual
56 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0

57 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
8.1.1 Financial Closeout
8.1.1.1 Substantial Completion
The BOF Project Closeout Procedure, Part 2 Finance and Accounting documents the BOF Finance team’s responsibilities and process for closing out the Peoplesoft projects. The PM is responsible to initiate this process when the project reaches Substantial Completion.
At Project Status “6” (Occupancy – Substantially Complete), the PM notifies BOF Finance that a project is substantially complete by submitting the following required documentation.
Completed and signed Notice of Substantial Completion Project Summary Report Selected Projects Financial
Summary – Project Detail Report
Project Completion Check List
See Appendix A8 for a sample closeout document package.
Using the information provided on these documents, BOF Finance will reduce the budget, as necessary, via a budget adjustment request to Asset Management to match the total budget needed for project completion.
8.1.1.2 Final Completion
At Project Status “7” (Complete), the PM notifies BOF Finance and the project Team Coordinator of any funds available to return to the appropriate funding source. At this point in closeout, the BOF Finance team researches the funding source(s) to determine the action required to return balance available. A project with multiple funding sources will require multiple actions to return the equity balance. BOF Finance will also review the project transactions to validate that revenue and expenses are accurate and recorded on the correct project and fund source. The review process can contain multiple iterations of reviews and actions that the Finance team and the Team Coordinator will complete. Additional information on the specific actions are detailed in the BOF Project Closeout Procedure, Part 2 Finance and Accounting.
Once all transactions are validated and deemed correct, the BOF Finance representative will prepare the Notice to Inactivate Capital Project form and submit to the capital accounting department. This documents confirms that the Peoplesoft project is ready to be inactivated.
8.1.2 General and Project Management Closeout
Upon a project reaching the substantial completion milestone, the PM will need to continue collaboration with the CM and the FPM Planner to ensure the following required closeout activities are completed and documented, as noted on the Project Management Process Checklist.
1) TBD - PM and AVP Design and Construction distribute feedback forms and schedule communications surveys with the Customer. The Project Initiation
During financial closeout, the PM should maintain routine
communications with the TC and BOF Finance to confirm the
closeout process is progressing.

agenda provides the basis for monitoring project progress, which includes budget and schedule documents. See Section 8.3.
2) PM schedules cover-up inspections, substantial completion inspections (completed as part of Construction Phase). See Section 6.2.3.
3) Delivery team conducts substantial completion walk of project and generates punch list. Planner reviews punch list for program compliance, way finding, and furniture items and issues and monitors resolution (completed as part of Construction Phase). See Section 6.2.3.
4) FPM Planner and PM agree on resolution of punch list and sign off on punch list as complete for final payments to vendors and contractor(s).
5) As built drawings prepared and received by FPM. See Section 8.2.1. 6) O&M manuals, training, and documentation received by UTMB and distributed to
corresponding departments. See Section 8.2.1. 7) FPM Planner and PM conduct final debrief with Customer after delivery. Use
Customer Agreement document (from Project Initiation) as agenda to verify that all project goals were met. See Section 8.3.
8) A/VPs conduct team meeting lessons learned from outcomes of final debriefs.
8.2 Document Retention and Archiving
All projects must meet UTMB records retention or disposal requirements for all project files generated on any given project. The PM should consult with the UTMB Legal department before destroying project records.
8.2.1 Redline As Builts or BIM Model
During the administrative closeout for document retention, the PM will need to ensure that the final as-built redline documents or BIM models are obtained from the contractor, prior to final payment to the contractor. The PM should complete the following steps to ensure redline documents are archived properly.
1. The CM/PM should verify incoming redline as-built documents to ensure all information is obtained from construction contractor and is correct.
2. The PM sends the redline as-built documents to the A/E supplier who will then provide their redlines into the as-built documents.
3. The A/E supplier submits the final as-built document package to the PM. 4. The PM provides the final document package to the FPM to update the as-built
detail in the UTMB system. 5. The Team Coordinator ensures the redline documents are archived with the
project files.
8.2.2 Project Documents
The PM should work with the Team Coordinator to make arrangements for project archives. Upon completion of the project, the Team Coordinator will gather hard copy project files from the PM, CM, IM, and others, as needed, and compile them into the consolidated project file drawers. The project files will be stored in the BOF project office for one year, as noted by the UTMB records retention requirements. Generally, at a project’s one-year warranty walk-through, the Team Coordinator will proceed with getting the project files archived for off-site retention at the UTMB records retention facility.
To prepare the project files for “offsite” records retention, the Team Coordinator will log the files on the archives register and proceed with sending the files to the designated
Project Delivery Manual
59 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
UTMB records retention location. These arrangements must include a process to destroy files after the required document retention period. Records are held for an additional 11 years at the UTMB records facility until final destruction.
8.3 Final Customer Assessment (TBD)
All projects should have at least one Customer assessment, completed at or near completion of the work. Customer assessments are requested by management and coordinated by the PM to ensure the assessment is completed. Additional information on Customer assessments is described in Appendix G.
8.4 Closeout Phase Roles and Responsibilities
During the Closeout Phase, the following roles will be involved.
ROLE RESPONSIBILITY
Customer The Customer will provide final acceptance of the project space.
Construction Manager (CM) CM will collaborate with the PM to confirm all final acceptance has been completed and documented for the construction work. The CM will review final incoming construction related invoices and confirm work is complete. The CM provides final project files to Team Coordinator for onsite archiving of project records.
Project Manager (PM) Person responsible to execute and manage the project closeout process. The PM works with the Team Coordinator to ensure all final invoice documents are processed and paid. The PM provides final project files to Team Coordinator for onsite archiving of project records. The PM is responsible to ensure project budget records accurately reflect all costs. The PM works with the Team Coordinator and BOF Finance to closeout any remaining funds on a complete project. The PM will participate in the Customer assessment debrief meeting and conduct a lessons learned session with BOF management and BOF PMs and CMs.
Interiors Manager (IM) Person responsible to:

9. PROJECT ORGANIZATION
Organization of various elements of a project can be a significant benefit or detriment to project management. Thoughtful planning on the part of the PM is essential to successful project organization.
9.1 Document Control
Document Control is an important aspect of all projects and is a required best practice. Every project should have a document control system that includes the following features:
A file system that is consistent for both hard copy and electronic documents A master filing index to facilitate document control setup Distribution control to prevent the unauthorized release of information, while ensuring
that the appropriate project personnel have timely access Electronic files stored on a network shared drive
9.1.1 Document File Structure
The PM must ensure that a document file system for their project is set up using the structure bulleted below. Note: The suggested file structure is the starting point for all projects and can be edited for individual project scope, as needed.
The PM/CM should utilize the master file index to indicate the file structure used on a project since all folders may not be applicable based on project scope. The master file index is used as a reference for project team members and others to quickly identify applicable files for a project and will confirm that no files are missing at project closeout and archiving. The master file index is provided in Appendix A10.
The suggested file structure for all BOF projects is as follows:
Master File Index Space Request (SR)
o Correspondence o Budget/Schedule o Space Request Form
Project Definition (PD) o Correspondence o Budget/Schedule o Customer Funding Information o Leasehold Information o Equipment Information o Site Investigations o Miscellaneous
Project Initiation (PI) o Correspondence o Meetings (Agenda/Minutes) o Budget – Final o Schedule – Final o FISC Submittals/Approvals o Customer Agreement/Funding Validations o Project Setup Information

The folder structure should be set up consistently between both hard copy format and electronic format to use the following structure:
1st level folder o 2nd level folder
3rd level folder (subfolder of 2nd level) 4th level (subfolder of 3rd level)
9.1.2 Document Files
9.1.2.1 Hard Copy Document Files
The Team Coordinator is responsible to set up the hard copy project files as noted on the project’s master file index. All hard copy documentation will be located in the project files located with the Team Coordinator.
File labels should utilize the following label structure for all hard copy folders:
Project Delivery Manual
64 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Project Name Project Number
1st level folder name Subfolder name
Subfolder names should contain all levels. For instance, “Construction – Interiors, General” or “Constr. – Procurement JOC POs/Contracts”.
9.1.2.2 Electronic Copy Document Files
The Team Coordinator is responsible to set up the electronic file folders on the network shared drive consistent with the hard copy files, utilizing the structure as noted in 9.1.1.
The PM and other project team members are responsible to store any electronic files in the file folders as set up on the shared drive. Note: storing files on individual hard drives is not a best practice. It is acceptable for a PM/CM to temporarily save document files to their hard drive for “work in progress” documents, but all final documents (completed native file and approved final scanned files) should be stored in the project files on the shared drive.
Both PMs and CMs are likely to receive decision point communications via email. Emails containing this type of information can be archived in one of two ways.
1) The PM and CM can print a hard copy of the email(s) and file in the hard copy file system.
2) The PM and CM can set up a .pst file, copy or move project related emails to the specific .pst file and provide the entire .pst file on CD or USB drive, which will then be archived with the hard copy files. UTMB IT department should be contacted for instructions on setting up a project .pst files for email documents.
9.2 Customer/Stakeholder Management
All projects will have a Customer(s) and Stakeholders. The Customer is the person/entity who receives the final project deliverable and pays the invoices for project services. A Stakeholder is anyone who is directly affected by the project execution or plays a part in the project execution.
There are instances when the Customer is also a Stakeholder who will be directly involved in project execution. In these instances, the PM should work with the Customer to identify the point of contact from the Customer’s team/department who will act as the Stakeholder for that project. Identifying this alternate point of contact allows the Customer/Stakeholder to become involved at the level required without overburdening the Customer main point of contact.
Each project is likely to have a unique Customer/stakeholder group since not all projects are the same size and of same nature. However, there is a common set of Stakeholders for all projects that must be engaged on the project. These Stakeholders include:
EH&S IT Property Services Utilities Purchasing Capital Accounting
Project Delivery Manual
65 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Examples of other Stakeholders include:
Employees of department affected by work Nursing team of area where work is being conducted Doctors who use/work in area where work would be conducted
Note: It is a suggested best practivce to identify the project stakeholders early on in the life cycle of the project, but no later than Project Definition and Project Initiation. Inclusion of stakeholders during project development could save substantial amounts of rework or changes farther into the project.
9.3 Project Kick-off and Goal Alignment
The kickoff meeting is an excellent forum to set precedents and make a lasting impression on the Customer and your project team. The kickoff meeting will help establish relationships that will be needed throughout the project, and a good start will help ensure success.
The initial Customer kickoff meeting introduces the project team to the Customer, confirms the goals and objectives of the project, and identifies individuals from both entities (project team and Customer) who will play a role in meeting these requirements. The meeting is also a good venue to determine Customer preferences, communication styles, and other nuances essential for customer satisfaction. Additionally, the kickoff meeting with the Customer produces Customer Agreement that aligns the goals of the project team and Customer. It will ultimately be the guiding document for how the project will be executed (scope, budget, schedule requirements).
The internal kickoff meeting is a project team meeting for the PM to review the project requirements, organization, and plan for how the project team will execute the scope on budget and schedule.
The timing sequence of the meetings is provided in the respective project phase sections of this manual. As a required best practice, any/all meetings should utilize the meeting tools as described in Section 9.4.
9.4 Project Reporting
Communication on any project is key to its success. The PM should ensure that all Stakeholders and Customer(s) are engaged early on the project by setting a pattern of open and frequent communications, which includes routine project reporting. Communications with and between the people/entities responsible for execution ensures that all parties are actively involved and engaged in meeting the project’s end goal.
All Project Managers, regardless of the size of the project, will always maintain the following MINIMAL documents as part of their day-to-day project reporting and meeting records:
Project Status Report (PSR) – including the funding sheet and the budget tracking sheet Critical Path Method (CPM) Schedule – in either Excel, MSProject or other scheduling
software (i.e. Primavera, Suretrack) Meeting Agenda – all project meetings shall have an agenda Meeting Minutes – trackable to each agenda and meeting Action Log – updated on a regular basis, indicating open action items, responsible
parties, and due dates
The following subsections give the PM guidelines on reporting and tracking using the above noted 5 required tools.
Project Delivery Manual
66 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
9.4.1 Cost
Implementing cost control systems early in the life of a project will increase the chances of overall project success. Good cost control systems help in many ways, but most importantly, they provide decision makers with timely and accurate information necessary to make daily business decisions. They also prevent unauthorized commitments and expenditures from impacting a project’s bottom line. Additional information on Budget Development is contained in Section 15.
9.4.2 Schedule
Project management means having schedule control, not merely having a schedule. To implement an effective schedule control system, the PM ensures that the schedule is updated, measured, analyzed, and enacted in a timely manner. The process begins by verifying that the schedule (durations, relationships, resources, etc.) is valid and achievable. The PM must then implement a process to update and analyze the schedule at least monthly. Schedule risks must be identified so the project team can focus on activities that pose the greatest threats or present the greatest opportunities. Action plans must be developed and implemented. Additional information on Scheduling is contained in Section 14.
9.5 Project Reviews
All BOF projects are subject to monthly project reviews. Project reviews provide information to the management team regarding the state of the project. Projects also receive constructive input from the collective experience of the management team. If a member of the review team can assist the project by visiting the site or the Customer or by taking some other action, the project review provides a great opportunity to make such a request.
BOF conducts project reviews the last Thursday of every month. The project review session is attended by multiple departments and BOF management teams. To prepare for the project review session, the PMs attend a practice review the last Tuesday of the month.
The standard project review covers the following topics:
Project Introduction Safety Program & Performance Quality Program Contract Overview & Performance Challenges, Issues, Concerns Project Execution Milestone Reporting Project Financial Overview
9.6 Customer Status Reports
The Customer Agreement should typically specify Customer meeting and reporting requirements and provide specific instructions for certain types of notifications. However, the Customer Agreement may only provide the minimum required communications. In general, a much higher level of interaction and communication between the PM, project team and the Customer may be expected. Ultimately, the appropriate level of communication desired depends on the individuals involved, and the best approach to determine this level is simply to ask.
Most Customers want to know everything that is happening on the project, while some want the PM to filter out a given level of daily issues, and others want most information to flow through
Project Delivery Manual
67
PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL 12-17-15.DOCX Rev 0
their staff. It is important for the PM to understand which type of Customer they have and communicate accordingly.
Most Customers understand and accept that projects have difficulties and challenges, but few Customers tolerate not being told about difficulties promptly and directly by the PM. Difficult issues or problems are particularly hard to discuss; when they arise on a project, it is essential that all PMs be able to discuss them in an open, honest and professional manner.
PMs should utilize the five required reporting tools to status the project for their Customer.
Project Status Report (PSR) – including the funding sheet and the budget tracking sheet Critical Path Method (CPM) Schedule – in either Excel, MSProject or other scheduling
software (i.e. Primavera, Suretrack) Meeting Agenda – all project meetings shall have an agenda Meeting Minutes – trackable to each agenda and meeting Action Log – updated on a regular basis, indicating open action items, responsible parties,
and due dates
Each PM to utilize the Design and Construction standardized file structure set up in the “S” drive. When a new project is created and set up in Peoplesoft, the Team Coordinator sets up the standard file structure for the project. PM to utilize this file structure for all project related files. Files are not to be stored in personal laptop or computer hard drive, only in the project folder in the “S” drive.
Sample of all above documents are located in the Appendix “A” for reference.

10. PROJECT FINANCES
10.1 Establishment of Project Number(s)
Project budgets are initially identified during the Space Request Phase and further developed during the Project Definition Phase. The detailed project budget is approved, including funding validation, during the Project Initiation Phase. Once the budget is final approved (FISC approval for all projects over $10,000), the PM is responsible to get a BOF project number established and submit the approved Capital Commitment Form document package to the finance department to obtain PeopleSoft Chart Field String(s) (CFS) established for the budget funding line items. Additional best practice information for cost control is described in Section 15, Budget Development and Control and the corresponding Appendix I.
Generally, the process flow for project finances is as presented in Figure 10.1.

10.1.1 Budget Development
A ROM budget is usually included as part of the Space Request Form. If a budget is not initially provided, the PM and FPM Planner work together during the Project Definition Phase to develop a ROM which is further refined during the Project Initiation Phase.
The PM should enlist the Design and Construction team to provide support during the final budget and estimate development in the Project Initiation Phase. Once the final budget is developed, it becomes part of the Customer Agreement documentation. The Customer Agreement confirms the Customer’s acceptance of the project budget as well as identifying/validating the funding source for the project.
Project Delivery Manual
70 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
The project budget, as approved by FISC (over $10,000), becomes the baseline budget by which progress reporting is generated.
10.1.2 Funding Sources and Approvals
All projects will have a funding source. Funding sources generally include:
Local funds FEMA Bonds (TRB) PUF LERR Other
The Customer is responsible to identify the funding source(s) for their requested project. Once a PM is assigned to an incoming project request (via Space Request form process), the PM should ensure the funding source is identified by the Customer as part of the Customer Agreement meeting and approval documentation. If the Customer has not identified the funding source, the PM should escalate the issue to the BOF AVP Design and Construction for further support on the issue.
The funding source should be identified and validated prior to the final FISC approval of the project.
10.2 Payment Process
The approved budget is used to validate all incoming project expenses for payment processing.
Once a project is established and proceeds into execution (Design or Construction phase), a supplier is procured to complete the work. Regardless of the type of procurement issued, the following steps are completed to ensure contracted suppliers are paid and costs are processed against correct project and funding line items.
1) Requisition for the services is submitted. The requisition is entered into the UTMB system by the Team Coordinator who ensures the billing/payment instructions are correctly entered for the encumbrance by commitment of approved funds.
2) Purchasing issues a Purchase Order to supplier with billing/payment instructions. 3) Supplier begins work and subsequently submits invoice(s) per PO instructions. 4) Invoice received and reviewed by PM/CM to confirm PO balance, verify CFS for
payment of invoice and ensure HSP PAR is attached, when applicable. 5) PM/CM/IM approves invoice for payment. 6) Prior to sending invoice to accounting, the TC reviews PO in PeopleSoft to confirm funds
are currently available to pay invoice and determine line item number from which to pay. 7) TC logs the invoice and submits approved invoice to Capital Accounting for final
payment processing. A copy of the invoice with the HSP PAR is sent to the HUB coordinator, when applicable.
8) Capital Accounting creates PeopleSoft payment voucher. 9) Payment issued to supplier within 30 days of receipt of valid invoice. 10) TC routinely reviews payment status on logged invoices and follows up for payment, as
needed.
Note: The PeopleSoft voucher is in direct relation to the supplier’s invoice. The supplier’s invoice should be in direct relation to the PO that was issued for the work. The PO has a direct relation to the requisition which was entered based on the approved project budget. If there are discrepancies between any relation along the process, a Match Exception Report will be

10.2.1 Job Cost Review
The PM is responsible to review and validate all project invoices against the project budget and PeopleSoft CFS. Upon receipt of a supplier invoice, the PM reviews the invoice to ensure the charges agree with the work that has been completed to date and that the invoiced amounts are in alignment with the contract. Upon approval of the invoice, the invoices are submitted to the accounts payable department for final processing.
If the PM identifies an issue with the invoice, he/she should determine if the issue is due to incorrect billing from the contractor or if the issue is due to a change order not processed or needed. The PM should take appropriate action based on the determination.
10.3 Project Status Updates
During the life of the project, the PM is required to maintain accurate and up-to-date PSR on each project with emphasis on accuracy of funding, budgets, encumbrances, and expenses. PMs will need to post and accurately update budget balances on a regular 30-day basis, or as change occurs.

11. HEALTH, SAFETY, ENVIRONMENT
Effective HSE management results in a win-win-win situation for BOF, our project team members, and our Customers. Emphasis on health and safety affects every employee, and every BOF project. The importance of safety in all activities cannot be overemphasized.
11.1 Roles and Responsibilities
Project Manager – The PM is accountable and responsible for developing and implementing an appropriate and effective HSE plan for their projects to ensure the health and safety of employees, contractors, and all personnel associated with a project.
Key Support Functions – Project team managers provide essential support in developing and administering safety programs. Construction managers, stakeholders, and other Contractor supervisors also support the implementation of the program.
11.2 Working in a Healthcare Environment
Working in a healthcare environment involves additional safety measures besides the standard construction safety processes. UTMB projects must additionally account for the following National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) regulations:
NFPA 99 establishes criteria for levels of health care services or systems based on risk to the patients, staff, or visitors in health care facilities to minimize the hazards of fire, explosion, and electricity
NFPA 101 The Life Safety Code is the most widely used source for strategies to protect people based on building construction, protection, and occupancy features that minimize the effects of fire and related hazards. Unique in the field, it is the only document that covers life safety in both new and existing structures. Provisions are included for all types of occupancies, with requirements for egress, features of fire protection, sprinkler systems, alarms, emergency lighting, smoke barriers, and special hazard protection
Per Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the NFPA and the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) the following Interim Life Safety Measures are required when performing construction work in occupied buildings:
Non-combustible partitions between the work area and the occupied area-this is usually accomplished by the use of temporary sheetrock walls on metal studs. Walls must go from deck to deck and made out of a previously UTMB-approved material. See a UTMB construction manager for more details.
Contractors must have their own fire extinguishers in the work area and have workers trained in their use.
Exits from the construction area must be kept substantially clear and useable and access to the area by emergency responders must be maintained.
Fire alarm pull stations and extinguishers may not be blocked. Construction debris (e.g. trash) must be cleaned/removed regularly; at lest daily.
Combustibles such as wood and paper must be kept to the lowest quantities feasible. Fire drill conducted twice per quarter (UTMB conducts 1/quarter in healthcare areas). Additional safety precautions as applicable per NFPA and UTMB.
UTMB audits construction work sites for compliance on a daily basis and will provide feedback where necessary. Not all measures are necessarily employed.
Project Delivery Manual
74 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
UTMB utilizes a Hot Work Permit system for any work that creates an open flame, sparks or otherwise generates significant heat perfonned inside a building or within 30 feet of combustible materials.
Where construction involves the generation of dust or otherwise may set off a fire alarm system, the UTMB Alarm Deactivation process must be followed.
Where construction involves working in an area with asbestos containing materials, proper established asbestos containing materials removal procedures must be followed.
Non-compliance with the above may result in the delay of your project. Additionally, if an alarm system is inadvertently activated by construction activities, the contractor may be financially liable.
Details of the above and questions about any of the above should be obtained from/directed to a Construction Manager (your UTMB contact person).
11.3 Managing Contractor Health, Safety, and Environment
HSE standards apply to everyone working under UTMB direction, including our employees and contractors. However, UTMB does not develop safety programs or detailed work procedures for our contractors. Rather, our contract agreements must include language that clearly defines UTMB’s general requirements for contractor health, safety, and environment programs. HSE requirements should, as a best practice, include the use of two-week look-ahead meetings, AHAs, and other zero-incident techniques. See Appendix E for details on HSE best practices.
As part of project management activities, the PM and/or CM should routinely perform audits of the Contractor’s work practices to ensure that the work is conducted in compliance with contractual requirements.
Project managers must understand that UTMB can be held liable despite contractual and regulatory requirements that obligate the contractor to be responsible for its workers’ safety. During the Construction Phase, the CM should bring potentially unsafe situations to the attention of contractors and require the contractors to take immediate corrective actions.
One of the fundamental responsibilities of PMs/CMs with respect to contractor safety is to ensure that all parties clearly understand exactly who is responsible for what. Coordination is the key to eliminating gaps in safety management.
11.4 Project Safety Plan
11.4.1 Contractor
The Project Safety Plan (PSP) establishes safety goals, objectives, organizational structure, roles, responsibilities, and accountabilities for a project to ensure health, safety, and environment receive top attention and priority. Construction agreements should contain language requiring contractors to submit their PSP prior to the start of construction. It is the responsibility of the proposal evaluation team to review and confirm the Contractor-supplied PSP meets the project requirements.
11.4.2 PSP – BOF Generated (TBD)
For major projects managed by BOF, the PM should consider creating a PSP prior to the start of the project to ensure any/all HSE requirements are addressed and communicated to all project team members, stakeholder, and Customer(s). See Appendix E for additional information on development of a Project Safety Plan.
Project Delivery Manual
75 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
11.5 Activity Hazard Analysis
The activity hazard analysis (AHA) is an important aspect of the HSE program. AHAs are used to identify project hazards and communicate the work techniques required to mitigate these risks. AHAs are intended to identify and eliminate or mitigate hazards or potential accidents associated with specific tasks performed on a project. They help workers focus on specific hazards before they engage in the activities that create those hazards. AHAs can also be used as a planning tool to raise awareness of upcoming potentially hazardous stages of work. The PM/CM should include the use of AHA in the contract agreement requirements for construction contractors.
Additional information on developing AHAs for a project are detailed in Appendix E.
11.6 Incident and Near Miss Reporting
The investigation and reporting of all significant safety, health and environment incidents is an essential component of a HSE program. All significant incidents should be reported within four (4) hours of their occurrence. Any fatality or incident resulting in the hospitalization of three or more employees must be reported to OSHA within eight hours. Some states have more stringent reporting requirements, and the PM must be familiar with those local reporting requirements. These requirements should be identified in the PSP, whether contractor generated or BOF generated. Additional information on incident and near miss reporting and investigation best practices is provided in Appendix E.

12. RISK MANAGEMENT
Project risk is typically described as a measure of potential obstacles to achieving overall project objectives within established cost, schedule, or technical constraints. Project risk management is the process of planning for, identifying, analyzing, responding to, and monitoring project risk to minimize the probability and consequences of events that could be adverse to project objectives and outcomes.
Well-executed risk management processes can help the project manager avoid problems that could impact cost, schedule, and technical performance. An awareness of, and ability to identify, project risks is an essential activity at all stages of a project.
One of the first things a project manager should do is foster a risk management orientation that ensures that the attention of all project team members is directed at maximizing opportunities and minimizing hazards throughout the project. The risk management approach is central to all project management activities, including the following:
Planning the project Organizing and structuring the work Developing management systems Creating project procedures Allocating resources Managing time
This section provides an overview of the best practice approach to identify, analyze, and mitigate project risks. Details for each step in the risk management process are contained in Appendix F.
12.1 Risk Management Process
Formal risk assessments and/or risk management plans provide many benefits and should be incorporated into every project. Completing the risk assessment at an early stage (preferably during the Space Request Phase and Project Definition Phase) will help build cohesion among team members at the start of a project. In addition, team members who participate in the risk management process (see Figure 12-1) take ownership of risks throughout the life of the project. The process also provides an open forum in which the team has the opportunity to express concerns about various aspects of the project before problems arise. The risk assessment also focuses the PM and project team on those events or activities that have the greatest chance of impacting the success of the project.
Figure 12-1: Risk Management Process
Upon project initiation, the PM reviews the risk assessment that was conducted during the Space Request or Project Definition Phase of the project. If the PM determines that the assessment requires further development to ensure the control of project risks, further risk assessment activities should be undertaken immediately.

12.2 Risk Assessment
Assessing the risks on a project is one of the first critical steps a PM should undertake to ensure the success of the job. Risk assessment should include risks associated with the following types of risks: Project Execution Risks, Pre-Construction Risk Assessments, Regulatory Compliance – e.g., Interim Life Safety, Infection Control.
It is a Life Safety requirement (see NFPA 99), in the Environment of Care, for any facility alteration in an active patient care environment to have a formal Infection Control Risk Assessment performed prior to any work conducted. The ICRA should be done in concert with the responsible Property Services facility manager to ensure that a complete understanding of potential impacts, risks, and mitigation are documented and applied.
The risk assessment checklist (provided in Appendix F) should be utilized at the onset of a project. This checklist, once completed, will provide the PM with a quick reference as to the low, medium, and high risks for any given project. Based on the risk levels, the PM should then take further action, as needed, to mitigate the risks.

13. QUALITY
13.1 The Quality Management System (QMS)
Not all projects require a project-specific quality program; in many cases, the standard UTMB policies and procedures suffice. However, some contracts require a project-specific quality program as a project deliverable while others contain more rigorous quality requirements than those contained in individual procedures. In these cases, the PM should implement and document a project-specific quality program.
Regardless of whether a quality program is project specific or uses the UTMB standard QMS, the PM should ensure that all project team members are aware of the quality requirements for any given project. Even a project with a presumed low risk of quality problems must focus on quality. Every PM is responsible for making quality part of the project execution.
Project Managers implement systems (or processes) to ensure that all contractual requirements are met and to provide for continual improvement of work processes. Key ways to follow through on this is to implement the Plan-Act-Check-Excel process. This process includes actions such as implementing peer reviews, performing QC checks on deliverables (e.g., reports, specifications, calculations, estimates, and drawings), utilizing experts from key departments who apply the policies and procedures for their disciplines (e.g., Procurement, HSE, Utilities, etc.) to select reliable suppliers and subcontractors, and implement process control oversight to confirm compliance with agreed-to requirements. Project managers also achieve these goals by establishing and ensuring the continuous application of quality objectives, use of audit results, analysis of measurement, identification and implementation of corrective and preventive actions, and management reviews.
Additional information regarding quality tools can be found in Appendix G.
13.2 Quality – Plan, Act, Check, Excel
The information contained in this section provides basic information for the various tools and techniques PMs can utilize to ensure consistency in meeting the overall UTMB quality policy on every project.
13.2.1 Plan
The first step for implementing quality on any project is to plan for quality. Planning includes executing the following types of actions during the project life cycle.
Budget for quality on the project. Establish use of quality procedures on project and ensure quality requirements
are part of overall project requirements. Select qualitifed suppliers. Prepare inspection and test plans or ensure contractors have plans approved
and implemented. Prepare measuring and test equipment (MT&E) control plan or ensure
contractors have plans approved and implemented. Establish performance criteria for project (i.e. project reporting metrics of meeting
budget, schedule, scope, percentage of rework required, client feedback reports, etc.).
Project Delivery Manual
80 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
13.2.2 Act
Once the quality processes have been defined for a project, the project team should execute the work ensuring that quality objectives and requirements for the project are met. During project execution, the quality actions a PM and project team should conduct include the following:
Implement an orientation to project team, suppliers, stakeholders, or others who may be involved in completing a portion of the work.
Monitor implementation and compliance to established quality processes and procedures.
Take corrective action, as needed, and eliminate root cause deficiencies. Maintain document and quality records.
13.2.3 Check
The quality checking step is implemented to monitor and measure the scope of work deliverables against established performance criteria, objectives, and requirements via independent checks, reviews, observation, measurements, inspections, and tests; and results are documented. The check process includes the following types of actions:
Conduct internal checks and reviews of technical and other deliverables prior to submittal. Track and resolve external comments.
Verify procured work products. Monitor subcontractor and supplier onsite and offsite work activities, products,
and services. Inspect and test self-performed construction activities.
13.2.4 Excel
The excel step involves reviewing feedback from audits, management reviews, internal (success stories) and external (client feedback) sources and implementing measures to continuously improve overall performance. During this step, the project team takes the following actions:
Conduct project audits against established processes and implement corrective and preventive actions, as needed.
Participate in routine management reviews with current and accurate project performance data.
Implement project-specific success stories and provide input for lessons learned that can be used throughout the BOF organization.
Obtain client feedback and take action, as appropriate.

14. SCHEDULE DEVELOPMENT AND CONTROL
A good project schedule is one of the most important tools in creating a successful project by keeping all project team members aware of significant deadlines, reviews, and project events based on contractual completion dates.
The schedule serves as a management reporting tool as well as an implementation tool to help get the work done on time. The schedule should contain activity durations, interdependencies, and constraints that help to identify conflicts and bottlenecks. When completed, the schedule produces a realistic and achievable timetable for executing the work.
The schedule is also one of the most important tools in managing changes on the project. Because the activities in the schedule are tied together with logical relationships, the schedule allows the PM to accurately evaluate changes from the plan and identify the resulting impacts to time and resources throughout the entire project lifecycle. The schedule also provides the PM with a tool to evaluate alternative execution strategies to meet business objectives (e.g., reduce duration or costs) by adjusting resources and logic.
Additional information on schedule development and control is provided in Appendix H.
14.1 Approval of Baseline Schedules
The FPM Planner generally provides a basic milestone schedule for the project during the Space Request Phase. It is further developed and detailed in conjuction with the PM during the Project Definition Phase.
The baseline schedule is developed during the Project Definition phase and approved during the Project Initiation Phase during the Customer Agreement meeting.
Contractual requirements and overall execution strategy drive the development of the schedule. During the review and approval process, the PM, or delegate, provides documentation of the key points that form the basis of the schedule to ensure that all parties have a mutual understanding and common expectations.
14.2 Schedule Control
Project management means having schedule control, not merely having a schedule. To implement an effective schedule control system, the PM ensures that the schedule is updated, measured, analyzed, and enacted in a timely manner. The process begins by verifying that the schedule (durations, relationships, resources, etc.) is valid and achievable. The PM must then implement a process to update and analyze the schedule at least monthly (or more frequent, as driven by project scope). Schedule risks should be identified during the Space Request and Project Definition Phases so the project team can focus on activities that pose the greatest threats or present the greatest opportunities. Action plans should be developed and implemented.
14.3 Schedule Reporting
Project managers are required to maintain and provide the project schedule as part of the routine project reporting requirements. Project reporting includes progress reporting with both BOF management and the Customer. Schedules must also be provided as part of routine project meetings with the contractors, Customer, or BOF management.

15. BUDGET DEVELOPMENT AND CONTROL
15.1 Budgeting Basics
Developing a sound project budget depends on knowing and understanding the relationship between the defined scope of work, the project estimate, and the negotiated contract value. Additional information on budget development and cost control is provided in Appendix I. Figure 15.1 presents a typical budget development flow diagram.
Figure 15.1 – Typical Budget Development Process Flow
Key terms used in this section are summarized below.
Budget The budget is a tool used to plan and manage the execution of the work.
Contract Value The contract value is the agreed-upon amount that a Customer will pay for the services defined in the SOW. This amount includes all costs as well as profit or loss.
Internal Contingency Contingency values are part of budget, but they have been set aside to protect the project from risks associated with the work. Contingency is considered a project cost.
Project Cost Estimate The project cost estimate is a quantitative assessment of all resources necessary to execute a project’s complete scope of work. The project cost estimate includes a base number and a modifier to indicate accuracy (e.g., “+10% / –5%”). The estimate is developed before the contract value or winning price is determined. It may include escalation and contingency, as appropriate.
15.2 Budget Detail
Budgets are initially obtained during the Space Request Phase and further developed and finalized during the Project Definition and Project Initiation Phases prior to entry into UTMB’s cost system. The budgets should be broken down into an appropriate budget line items that can be linked back to project scope items.
15.3 Approval of Baseline Budget
The baseline budget is the budget for the project that is approved by the FISC and input into Peoplesoft by CFS.
15.4 Budget Reporting
Project managers are required to maintain and provide project financial reports as part of routine reporting requirements which includes progress reporting with both BOF management and the Customer.

3
provide to UTMB appropriate files and records validating that a Security Clearance Check and Urine Drug Test has been properly performed. The parties agree that the amount of $1,000 shall not be construed as a penalty but as liquidated damages representing the parties' estimate of the damages which UTMB will sustain for Seller’s failure to perform its obligation under these requirements.
7.0 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or the Agreement UTMB may,
at its sole discretion, deny or restrict access to any of Seller's employees, agents and/or subcontractor's personnel

Notification of Construction Activities Any project that includes a site construction office, a lay-down area or material storage area, vehicular and/or equipment access, excavation or grading, or any disturbance of the existing site conditions requires a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) unless specifically authorized otherwise by Environmental Health and Safety (EHS). If SWPPP requirements are waived, Best Management Practices (BMP) for storm water management and weekly inspections by EHS will be required as a minimum. Maintenance activities that include major uses of water (pressure washing) or pumping of ground water that will be discharged to a storm drain require BMP’s. The Notification of Construction Activities is used to authorize construction and water discharge activities where SWPPP is waived by EHS. Upon completion please return to EHS for approval.

APPENDIX B – SPACE STANDARDS AND FINISH GUIDELINES
Project Delivery Manual
C-1 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
APPENDIX C – CHANGE CONTROL MANAGEMENT
Technical scope control refers to a form of baseline control similar to that used to control the schedule and budget. Technical scope control involves the establishment and control of a well-defined technical baseline to ensure that the work performed meets the criteria required by the contract. Change control refers to the process used to identify, review, analyze, and incorporate changes to any project baseline, including technical, cost, or schedule.
The contract is the key document used to manage change orders. Project managers must have an in-depth understanding of the terms and conditions of the contract as well as the scope of work. The PM must be familiar with the contractual requirements for managing change orders, including any limitations within the contract, and understand any time constraints on requesting a change order. Project managers must have procedures in place to address both internal and external changes and change orders. Internal changes are those that can be made unilaterally by BOF, while external changes require Customer approval.
Before the project begins, the PM should discuss the change process with the Customer to ensure a mutual understanding. It is perfectly normal and acceptable for the Customer to provide additional details as to how to implement the requirements of the contract. However, any Customer direction that materially alters or is contrary to the contract terms must be documented as a contract modification.
1. Change Orders
Change order procedures must be implemented at the outset of the project. These procedures must clearly define appropriate authority levels for the approval of change orders. Customer authority levels for approving change orders also must be defined and must comply with the changes clause of the contract.
The project team and Customer should expect change orders to be processed in a timely manner. Because expectations and precedents are set early in the job, the practice of promptly addressing changes should also be implemented from day one.
Accountability is a key component in the prompt handling of change orders. Project and construction managers should be clearly identified, and they must understand that they are accountable for controlling the scope. Relevant project team members must be trained in the project change procedure, and should understand that their responsibilities include identifying potential changes and using the established procedures to appropriately communicate those changes so that decisions can be made at the appropriate level.
1.1 Recognizing Change Orders
The project management process includes the development of the project budget. Key members of the team must be well versed in the baseline plans for their area of responsibility. As the project progresses, proposed actions and Customer instructions are compared against the baselines. If they represent a variance, the change procedure is followed and work is not performed until a change is authorized.
Requirements for Procedures Establish immediately after project award. Define appropriate authority levels. Require that change orders be processed in a
timely manner. Include a simple early identification/warning
system for UTMB and the Customer. Include rough-order-of-magnitude cost and
schedule impacts on initial notifications. If appropriate, include a change review board
with Customer representation. Protect against performing work on unapproved
changes. Include documentation of the change and all
impacts in the permanent contract file.
Project Delivery Manual
C-2 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
The regular (usually monthly) analysis of actual performance provides a second opportunity to identify changes. During this process, responsible managers review all significant variances from their baseline plans and must determine their causes. This analysis reveals any out-of-scope work; such work should be stopped immediately until the change order is approved.
The PM is responsible for change reviews. On large projects, a change review committee may be created to assist in this process. To be effective, the change review committee should collectively include expertise in the contract, budget, schedule and technical scope. In some cases, the committee may be as simple as one administrative manager and one technical manager who meet only when potential changes are identified. More commonly, the committee includes several individuals and meets weekly or biweekly to make recommendations to the PM. In any case, the PM must review all potential changes and determine which are legitimate and which require formal Customer authorization and change orders.
1.2 Accounting for Change Orders in Schedules and Budgets
In many cases, the full impact on future activities may not be readily identifiable at the time the change order is processed. Sound assumptions must be made regarding future impacts, and costs must be estimated by qualified individuals in order to build a strong case for the change.
As with any estimates, cost and schedule impacts should be reviewed and validated by an independent and qualified source. The responsible PM must also approve the estimate before the change is routed for final approval according to established processes.
Approved change orders are incorporated into the baseline budgets and schedules as soon as they are approved. Baseline schedules are updated only upon receipt of a fully executed change order. Working schedules may incorporate pending work consistent with that included in the change order.
2. Claims Prevention & Management
How well the project team prevents and manages claims may determine whether the project is successful. The PM must ensure that the project team understands this and takes the necessary measures to keep this in mind as they go about their daily activities.
Periodically remind all project team members of the following:
Claims, whether between UTMB and a subcontractor or between BOF and a Customer, often reflect poorly on BOF because they are viewed as evidence of a breakdown in project execution.
Claims are costly for all parties and can be a significant distraction to the management of both UTMB and the Customer, often resulting in hard feelings.
The cost of claims includes legal and other third-party fees as well as management and staff time to review, research, and argue the claim or negotiate a settlement.
Many claims are the result of poor planning, avoidable delays, errors and omissions, and inadvertent actions or inactions. In other words, many claims are preventable.
Claims prevention is a team effort, and the PM should ensure that the entire project organization understands and actively supports claims prevention.
2.1 Major Components of Claims Management
The most important elements of claims management are knowledge of the contract, development and implementation of a quality program, and clear communication with the project team, Customer, and contractors. Fortunately, most potential claims are avoided by rigorously following UTMB policies and procedures while executing the work. Following are critical issues that must be addressed or implemented to effectively prevent and manage claims:
Project Delivery Manual
C-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Train team members to identify potential claim situations and resolve them before they escalate.
Implement a rigorous and frequent system of progress reporting. BOF and its contractors must implement and maintain quality measurement systems to
ensure that work is proceeding according to plan. Implement a rigorous audit and technical review program to ensure the integrity of all
work products and verify that the team and contractors/vendors are working according to established procedures.
Ensure that contract administrators are fully engaged in the project. Document and retain all relevant conversations, faxes, email, memoranda, meeting
minutes, or other correspondence with the Customer and contractors.
2.2 Escalation and Resolving Potential Claims
When the potential for a claim exists, the PM must refer to the disputes clause of the contract and understand our rights and obligations as well as the agreed-upon process for resolution. The PM is responsible to immediately advise BOF management of a potential claim situation, propose a strategy to resolve the issue, and, if appropriate, notify the Customer if the claim involves a contractor and BOF.
Generally, the PM should initially attempt to settle the issue at the project level. This does not mean that the PM acts alone. Procurement and other support services are available to assist and should be consulted for their expertise. If additional support is needed, the PM must raise the issue with management and procurement department.
Valid claims are not always wise or cost effective. The management team must evaluate all business aspects before proceeding with a claim and make a sound business decision rather than an emotional one.
If the matter cannot be resolved at the project level, it is escalated through the respective management teams. On some claims, senior management may ultimately meet with their Customer or subcontractor counterparts to try to negotiate a settlement.
If the two parties cannot reach resolution, the matter is escalated in accordance with the contract.
2.3 Contractor Claims
Management cannot resolve every issue, so the formal claims process can be a necessary part of project management. A claim is initiated when a written notice (demand) is received from the contractor (claimant).
The contractor submits a statement of facts about the claim, including details and justification for each item of additional compensation or time adjustment claimed, the reasons for the claim, references to applicable provisions of the contract and all other pertinent facts.
After receiving a claim, a copy of the claim and all supporting documentation must immediately be provided to the responsible project manager, contract administrator, and contracts manager. In most cases, it is appropriate to notify the Customer of potential claims, even if the contract does not require notification.
The contracts manager supports the PM in analyzing the claim and assists the contract administrator in drafting a position statement.
The PM responds to the claim in a professional manner and as quickly as practical. The contracts manager must review all correspondence related to the claim before it is released.
3. Technical Scope Control
Project Delivery Manual
C-4 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Technical scope control applies to the complete technical description required to assess, build, test, accept, install, operate, maintain, and support the project’s end product or system. The project manager is responsible for implementing the processes necessary for the creation, maintenance, and controlled change of the technical baseline of the project.
The first step in implementing technical scope control is to establish a technical scope control process and procedure for the project. The intensity of the technical scope control process will vary among projects based on risk and Customer requirements. The procedure typically includes the identification of technical changes, methods to identify impacts to all affected disciplines, review procedures to obtain Customer approvals, and processes for communicating the results of the review to the project team.
The review process ensures that the full impact of changes is identified, evaluated, communicated to the Customer, and incorporated only after being approved to protect BOF from future claims that the contracted scope of work was not performed. If scope evolves without proper controls, the Customer’s project manager may be pleased with BOF work and “cooperative” disposition, but the auditors who review the project later may see things differently.
After technical scope control processes are established, the project team should be trained in their implementation. This requires a thorough understanding of the technical baseline and the importance of controlling and documenting approved changes. A good document control program is also essential.
Project managers must ensure that all technical changes are formally approved by the authorized Customer representative before they are incorporated into the project baselines. Following Customer approval of the change, the PM is assigned responsibility to implement the change. This individual must ensure that impacts are reflected as appropriate throughout the technical baseline.
The PM must also ensure that an appropriate audit/surveillance system is in place to ensure that work is not performed on changes before they are authorized.
Most projects are defined by a technical scope
description or specifications which must be controlled to protect BOF and our clients.
Technical scope control benefits the Customer by helping to ensure
delivery of the correct technical scope.

1. Safety Culture
The term “safety culture” refers to the principles, attitude, and techniques that all employees should be expected to use to promote a healthy and safe environment, no matter what the project or task. Having a safety culture standardizes our safety, health and environment practices and empowers every employee to take action to eliminate injury and enhance safety.
Any work-related injury has a very personal and profound effect on our employees and customers, not to mention our corporate reputation. Therefore, focus on safety, health and environment extends beyond recognized high-hazard activities (e.g., construction and field work) to office activities and even into the lives of our employees outside the work setting. Every project manager and every employee of UTMB should make safety part of their own “culture,” every day, in every situation.
The goal for a project’s safety program should be “zero incidents.” The following table details the various techniques that can be utilized to meet a the zero incidents goal.
Table E-1: Zero Incidents Techniques: A Snapshot of What and Why Key Technique What and Why
1 Demonstrated Management Commitment
All levels of management consistently display their commitment to the safety process. As leaders, managers are role models whose actions send a strong message to employees.
2 Staffing for Safety Each project manager should consider staffing a team member who has Safety, Health and Environment (SH&E) experience to assist in implementing and administering the safety program. The SH&E representative consults with line organizations, helping to emphasize that safety is the responsibility of each employee on the project, not just the safety department.
3 Safety Planning – Pre-project/Pre-task
Planning safety into design and construction by using activity hazards analyses is key to eliminating accidents and incidents in the workplace. Planning job tasks with safety as a key component raises safety awareness of supervisors and employees. Pre-task planning improves productivity and reduces the negative impact of direct and indirect costs of accidents.
4 Safety Training and Education
Orientations, routine training sessions are conducted at all levels of an organization. Specialized training is also conducted to provide specific knowledge about hazardous work activities. Ongoing safety orientation and training gives employees the knowledge and skills to complete their job tasks without injury.
5 Worker Involvement and Participation
Empowering employees to identify hazards in the workplace is a valuable tool to increase safety awareness. Conducting labor-management safety committee meetings allows a forum to coordinate and resolve safety issues. When employees identify and have the ability to correct hazards in the workplace, safety motivation and awareness increase and fewer accidents occur.
6 Recognition and Rewards Employee recognition programs to reward and recognize employees for safe behavior can be based on individual or group accomplishments. Safe behavior is positively reinforced through management involvement, personal contact, communication, and training.
7 Subcontractor Management Project Managers must ensure subcontractors comply with safety and health rules and regulations in accordance with contractual requirements. Aggressive management of subcontractor safety reduces accidents and incidents on the jobsite and reduces the risk of general liability claims against the company.
Project Delivery Manual
E-2 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Key Technique What and Why
8 Accident/Incident Reporting and Investigation
Each project must investigate accidents and incidents immediately and report to the appropriate personnel. The investigation process includes root cause determination and recommendations to prevent future occurrences.
9 Drug and Alcohol Testing Employees are tested for drugs and alcohol where and when permitted by state law and local collective bargaining agreements during pre-employment, at random, post-accident, and when reasonable suspicion exists. Testing employees for drugs and alcohol reduces the likelihood of serious injuries as a result of workers being impaired while working on a project.
2. Safety Training & Awareness
Managing HSE takes a proactive approach. Some components of this approach include the following:
Demonstrated personal commitment to safety from all levels of management and supervision.
Safety planning, including activity hazard analysis, identifying high-risk tasks in the project schedule, and performing two-week look-aheads.
Safety training, awareness and education, including orientation for newly assigned workers, general office or construction safety training, and specific training applicable to the project.
Worker involvement in safety presentations, safety committees, and hazard identification and mitigation.
Aggressive management of contractor safety including prequalification, review of safety programs, and compliance audits.
Prompt reporting and investigation of all significant incidents, including near-misses, property damage only, or injuries.
Employee recognition programs to reward employees for safe behaviors and accomplishments.
3. Motivating Employees to Work Safely
A key component of the HSE program is the ability to effectively motivate team members to work safely. Some techniques that are used to accomplish this include the following:
Establish and communicate clear safety goals and objectives for the overall project and individually for the project management team.
Constantly remind the team of the safety culture, using a variety of techniques.
Get personally involved! Take an active role in managing safety and require the same of all supervisors on the project.
Solicit safety suggestions from the team. Implement suggestions that will result in improvements.
Reward near miss reporting and safety suggestions. Develop a recognition and reward program. Celebrate small victories. Establish a safety committee that includes members from management as well as the
nonexempt workforce.
4. Project Safety Plan (TBD)
The most effective safety recognition programs are designed to reward employees on a frequent and informal basis and are tied to
zero incident performance.
Project Delivery Manual
E-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
The Project Safety Plan (PSP) establishes safety goals, objectives, organizational structure, roles, responsibilities, and accountabilities for a project to ensure HSE receives top attention and priority.
PMs play a key role in developing the PSP. They can either take direct responsibility for its preparation or delegate that function to the CM. In either case, the project manager must ensure that appropriate safety expertise is provided and that the PSP complies with all UTMB and any other applicable requirements, such as Customer expectations or contract-specific details. The PM also ensures that the PSP is reviewed at proper levels and is approved for implementation. NOTE: need to determine approval level.
A typical Project Safety Plan contains the following sections; however, the PSP is tailored to meet the requirements of individual projects, as needed.
SECTION1 - INTRODUCTION 1.1 UTMB Safety, Health, & Environment Policy 1.2 Project Safety Plan (PSP) – Key Points of Contact 1.3 Subcontractor Safety, Health & Environment Plan 1.4 Management of Change SECTION 2 – SCOPE OF WORK 2.1 Scope of Work 2.2 Customer/Project Specific Requirements SECTION 3 – PROJECT HSE MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES AND AUTHORITY 3.1 HSE Responsibility Matrix SECTION 4 – ADMINISTRATIVE PHASE 4.2 Employee Orientation 4.5 Training 4.6 Audits & Inspections 4.7 HSE Meetings 4.9 Measurement & Reporting 4.10 Incident Investigations SECTION 5 – PRECONSTRUCTION PHASE 5.1 Risk Analysis and Safety Specification Development 5.2 Contractor Prequalification Review 5.5 Contractor Safety Plan Submission Review 5.6 Premobilization HSE Meeting SECTION 6 – CONSTRUCTION PHASE 6.1 Site Risk Analysis 6.2 Five Hazard Control Measures – Order of Precedence 6.3 Activity Hazard Analysis 6.4 Safety Systems Audit Protocol 6.5 Site Inspection 6.6 Daily/Weekly HSE Site Inspections 6.7 HSE Enforcement 6.8 Notice of Violation of Safety and Health Regulations 6.9 Competent First Aid Person SECTION 7 – SAFETY TRAINING 7.1 Project Safety Orientation 7.2 Zero Incident Techiques 7.3 Daily Huddle 7.4 Weekly Toolbox Meetings 7.5 Activity Hazards Analysis Training

5. Activity Hazard Analysis
The activity hazard analysis (AHA) is an important aspects of the HSE program. AHAs are used to identify project hazards and communicate the work techniques required to mitigate these risks. AHAs are intended to identify and eliminate or mitigate hazards or potential accidents associated with specific tasks performed on a project. They help workers focus on specific hazards before they engage in the activities that create those hazards. AHAs can also be used as a planning tool to raise awareness of upcoming potentially hazardous stages of work.
The project team prepares high-level AHAs during the startup of a project as part of the PSP. These high-level AHAs identify the more hazardous or difficult aspects of the project, raise awareness, and help focus the project team on risk management.
More detailed AHAs are developed as execution plans and statements of work are developed in detail. Contractors, or stakeholder departments responsible for executing the work should prepare the more detailed AHAs for the project’s specific activities.
A detailed AHA is required any time that specific activities present a high degree of risk. A detailed AHA should be prepared by the contractor or construction superintendent and is reviewed by the PM and/or CM or safety subject matter expert at least two weeks before the scheduled work activity.
There is some flexibility in determining what constitutes a high-risk task. However, as a minimum, any task identified in the risk management plan as “significant” based on HSE risks requires an AHA as part of the mitigation. (See Section 12 and Appendix F of this guidebook for the discussion of risk management.)
If the work is being contracted, the contractor must prepare and submit the AHA for review by the PM or CM prior to the start of work. A sample AHA form is shown below.

6. Near Miss
A near miss is an accident that almost happens. A near miss includes all circumstances that could lead to an accident, but, based on chance or skill, do not lead to an accident. Since many events in life could be considered near misses, PMs should place practical limitations on reporting near misses.
First, something unusual should be involved. For example, every automobile trip involves a statistical probability of an accident, but not every trip is considered a near miss. A vehicle trip in which the driver swerves to avoid a collision is a near miss.
Second, focus on near misses that could cause significant property damage or result in a recordable injury. For example, a potential paper cut is not a near miss, whereas machinery used without proper guards is a near miss.
Every PM should ensure that the team is focused on identifying the potential for serious incidents before they happen. Most incidents can be prevented by looking for and removing hazards. For example, a loose cable across a walkway might create a tripping hazard. An employee who notices such a hazard must know that it is not only right, but expected, to correct such a hazard by bringing it to the attention of appropriate project personnel. Attention to near misses is one of the most effective ways to identify less obvious situations that, under a certain set of circumstances, have the potential to cause significant damage or harm.
There is a direct correlation between the number of near misses and the number of serious incidents experienced because the causes are the same. In fact, almost every serious incident is preceded by numerous near misses that, if noticed and corrected, could have prevented the incident from occurring. View every near miss as a warning and manage it accordingly.
Handle near misses in the same manner as an accident that actually occurs. This includes appropriate reporting, investigation to identify the root causes, development and implementation of corrective measures, monitoring for effectiveness, and sharing lessons learned. Handling a near miss in this manner fully leverages its potential for reducing injuries across all projects, work locations and environments.
7. Incident and Near Miss Reporting
The investigation and reporting of all significant HSE incidents is an essential component of a HSE program. All significant incidents must be reported within four (4) hours of their occurrence. Days away (lost time) cases also require a telephone call to the UTMB HSE department within four (4) hours of the occurrence.
Safety incidents should be reported and investigated promptly.
Any employee or contractor who is involved in or who witnesses an incident must report it immediately to the local supervisor.
The supervisor must promptly report the incident to the PM. The PM submits the initial incident report within four hours of the incident and submits a
detailed incident report within 24 hours.
Any fatality or incident resulting in the hospitalization of three or more employees must be reported to OSHA within eight hours. Some states have more stringent reporting requirements, and the PM must be familiar with those local reporting requirements. These should be identified in the PSP.
8. Incident Investigations
Incidents, including near misses, should be investigated to determine the root causes. This investigation ensures that corrective actions are identified and implemented. The goal of all
Project Delivery Manual
E-6 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
incident investigations is to improve performance through operational changes, not to place blame.
As soon as all personnel are safely removed from the area, the incident location is safeguarded and photographed and/or videotaped. Record the following information:
Location, date, and time of the incident Description of the incident Description of the operation being performed at the time of the incident Outline of the sequence of events that led to the accident Identification of all personnel associated with the work task and incident Witness statements Titles and descriptions of all relevant training, orientation, meeting minutes, etc.,
conducted prior to the incident
9. Simple Determination of Root Causes
The root cause of an incident can usually be identified with about five successive “why” questions, commonly known as the “Five Whys.” This strategy begins with taking an incident and asking, “Why did it occur?” After the first response to this question, another “why” question is asked. Each successive answer is again questioned “why” to uncover the links in the chain of events that led to the incident.
If the answer to a “why” is beyond the control of the project team, the process has gone too far and too many “whys” have been asked.
The why questions can have multiple answers. When this occurs, each root must be followed to ensure that all root causes are identified and corrected.
Project Delivery Manual
F-1 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
APPENDIX F – RISK MANAGEMENT
The following information details the risk management process steps, as noted in Section 12.
1. Risk Identification
The first step in the risk management process is to identify potential risks. This is best accomplished by combination of techniques, including the following:
Documentation reviews Brainstorming sessions with project team Lessons learned from prior projects Checklist reviews Consultation with internal or external subject matter
experts Peer or management reviews Root cause analysis
2. Qualitative Risk Analysis
Project managers should utilize a simple qualitative approach to categorize risks on every project. The project manager must assign each identified risk into one of the three standard risk levels: moderate, significant, or severe. These categories are based on a combination of the potential impact of the risk and its probability. The following table defines the standard risk levels.
Table F-1: Standard Levels of Risk
Moderate Not considered unusual by industry standards and is within UTMB policy. Moderate risks do not typically require specific contingency and are usually mitigated by standard operating procedures and the project management plan.
Significant Considered unusual by industry standards, is out of UTMB policy, requires specific contingency, or requires a specific mitigation plan (any may apply).
Severe Could significantly and negatively impact UTMB AND cannot be effectively and reliably controlled.
It should also be noted that a large category of minor everyday risks apply to every project. Such risks, when not of particular note relative to the project, are assumed to be effectively mitigated by standard operating procedures and are not necessarily included in the risk management plan.
As shown in Figure F-1, moderate risks are normally mitigated through UTMB standard operating procedures. All risks identified as significant or severe require a specific mitigation plan. After the mitigation plan is developed, the risk level must be reassessed. In general, severe risks must be mitigated to the significant level. Those risks considered significant or severe after mitigation require a quantitative risk analysis to determine how much, if any, contingency or reserve is required. These risks require close monitoring throughout the job by use of a watchlist or leading indicators. Risks deemed moderate should be monitored to ensure that their level does not escalate.
PMs use a risk-based management approach to
focus management attention on the greatest threats and
opportunities.
Project Delivery Manual
F-2 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Figure F-1: Qualitative Analysis of all Identified Risks
3. Quantitative Risk Analysis Methods
Projects should use the expected value model to quantify risks. Each risk is assigned a single value associated with the potential impact if the risk event occurs. This value should represent a reasonably pessimistic scenario, but not necessarily the worst-case scenario. Each risk is also assigned a single probability value. The product of the impact and the probability is the value assigned to the risk (see Example F-1).
Many project risks have multiple potential outcomes, each with a unique consequence or probability. If the simplified single expected value approach is not adequate, it can be expanded by dividing a risk into multiple gradations, as shown in Example F-2.
Individual business units may determine that more advanced statistical modeling tools should be used
on some projects to better understand the potential impact of risks. The most common of these tools is the Monte Carlo simulation, which uses numerous uncertain variables, each with a defined set of possible values and a probability distribution. The simulation calculates multiple iterations by sampling the values from the probability distribution using a random number generator to introduce the element of chance. This technique produces a risk distribution that allows the project manager to predict impacts with a given range of certainty. For example, the simulation may show a 25% probability that the total
impact will be less than $100K, a 60% probability that the impact will be between $100K and $200K, and a 15% probability that it will be over $200K. Project Controls should assist projects that require risk simulations.
4. Risk Mitigation
All projects should mitigate risks and reduce the associated probability or potential impact by using a combination of the following five general classes of mitigation.

Example F-1 A Project Manager estimates that the cost of a critical piece of equipment may overrun budget by $1 million. The probability of the overrun is estimated to be one-in-ten, or 10%. The value assigned to the risk is $1,000,000 x 10% = $100,000.
Example F-2 A Project Manager estimates there is a 10% probability that a piece of equipment will be $1 million over budget, but there is also a 30% probability the equipment will have a smaller overrun of $500,000. (Total probability of an overrun is 40%.) The value assigned to the risk is ($1,000,000 x 10%) + ($500,000 x 30%) = $250,000.
Project Delivery Manual
F-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Table F-2: Risk Mitigation Classifications
Class Description
Elimination Eliminate the risk from the project (i.e., reduce the probability of risk or impact to zero) by modifying the scope of the contract, obtaining additional expertise, using proprietary technology, etc. (Elimination is the best possible class of mitigation.)
Transference Eliminate the risk from UTMB (but not from the project) by transferring it to a different party, usually the Customer or a subcontractor. Indemnification, warranty, and acceptance criteria are examples of methods used to transfer risk.
Insurance Project-specific insurance coverage may reimburse the project for losses resulting from a specific event. This is also considered a form of risk transfer.
Control A combination of careful planning, constant monitoring, and implementing corrective actions as needed to reduce the probability or potential impact of risks.
Contingency/Reserves A pool of funds set aside to pay for the impact of risk events. (Contingency is a last resort to protect UTMB from unplanned losses, because it amounts to acceptance of the risk.)
Mitigation plans reduce the impact or probability of occurrence for all risks identified as significant or severe by the project team. If the mitigation plan is considered viable (i.e., the benefits outweigh the cost to implement), it should be funded and implemented. After all viable mitigation efforts are built into the project plan, the probability and potential impact of the residual risk is recalculated. The resulting value is the amount the project manager presents to management for consideration as a contingency or reserve in the project budget.
4.1 Establishing Appropriate Levels of Mitigation
The PM must develop skill in determining the optimal amount of mitigation to employ on a project to provide the greatest cost benefit to the project and UTMB. Simple mitigation measures often provide a significant benefit at relatively small cost. Each successive layer of mitigation tends to become more expensive and less effective. The break-even point is the point at which one dollar of mitigation provides one dollar of risk reduction. Mitigation measures at or beyond the break-even point should not be undertaken without compelling reasons.
Tips for Success Maximizing Limited Budget
Theoretically, every mitigation measure that provides a benefit greater than its cost is implemented. In the real world, the funds available to reduce risks in an inherently risky business must be limited. To get the “most bang for the buck,” sort the risks based on the ratio of benefit to cost. Beginning with the highest benefit to cost ratio and working down, implement as many items as are allowed by the budget (or until the ratio reaches 1.0).
The best form of risk mitigation is always to plan and execute the work in a manner that eliminates the risk of loss.

5. Risk Register
The risk register is a tool used to identify, track, quantify, qualify, mitigate project risks. It is a MS Excel based file that is generated during a project’s planning phase and updated as risks are identified, qualitatively assessed, and quantitatively assessed. The register also allows for mitigation plans to be described. The risk register can then be used during regular project meetings as a means to review/update risks and mitigations for those risks. The risk register is a living tool and is meant to be updated on a routine basis.
Sample Risk Register
6. Insurance Basics
6.1 Insurance Program
UTMB has a comprehensive insurance program designed to protect the company from sudden major losses resulting from claims. The details of the UTMB insurance program must be handled and distributed with caution; therefore, the PM should consult the insurance department or procurement department for information regarding insurance requirements for a project.
UTMB may implement project-specific insurance policies if they are considered necessary for the success of a project. Some examples of project-specific policies include builders all risk, general liability policies for concurrent Customer negligence, pollution liability, and policies that provide specific professional liability. Coverage at levels higher than standard insurance limits may be available if it is deemed necessary and appropriate.
6.2 Insurance Limitations
Project Delivery Manual
F-5 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Insurance companies are experts at managing risk for a profit. Over the long term, insurance companies recover the cost of all claims with a reasonable profit margin through the collection of premiums. Therefore, the insurance program is a financial tool, not a risk mitigation tool. Project managers must understand that claims made under UTMB insurance policies will always be recovered by the insurance carrier, with interest and profit, in subsequent years.
Even project-specific insurance policies have limitations. Because the insurance carrier does not generally have the opportunity to recover costs in subsequent policy years, these policies tend to be very expensive. Essentially, the project pays for anticipated risks through high premiums. A Customer who pays for a project-specific insurance policy may provide a beneficial form of risk mitigation.
Insurance companies eventually recover claim costs, with a
profit, through their premiums.

APPENDIX G – QUALITY MANAGEMENT
1. Applying the Quality Management System
Not all projects require a project-specific quality program; in many cases, the standard UTMB policies and procedures suffice. However, some contracts may require a project-specific quality program as a project deliverable while others contain more rigorous quality requirements than those contained in individual procedures. In these cases, the PM should implement and document a project-specific quality program.
Even a project with a presumed low risk of quality problems must focus on quality. Every PM is responsible for making quality part of our the standard BOF operating culture. By doing so, all PMs help ensure higher levels of customer satisfaction, greater profits, and more growth opportunities across the department.
As part of the project QMS, the project manager uses the following process:
Identify all relevant standards and requirements. Identify processes to achieve those standards and requirements. Work with process owners to establish objectives for the process and identify
performance indicators (metrics) to measure those objectives. Communicate process objectives to the project team. Evaluate and audit performance against established metrics. Determine appropriate corrective actions, oversee their implementation, and
monitor progress to determine their effectiveness. Participate in the Customer feedback system. Incorporate into lessons learned for the future.
2. Project Quality Management System
To be effective, the project QMS must be designed to suit the project’s scope. The QMS must also be forward-looking to ensure that QA/QC procedures are in place before they are needed. Before a project transitions into a new phase of work, the QMS must be evaluated and modified to address the quality concerns associated with the coming phases.
3. Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Quality Assurance (QA) - is the element of Quality Management that requires developing and implementing a system of processes and procedures that will enable the PM and project team to provide confidence that products and services meet mutually agreed-to requirements.
Quality Control (QC) - is the element of Quality Management that focuses on verifying compliance with the mutually agreed-to requirements. The key aspects of verification are:
Verification is performed by individuals who are independent of, and at least as qualified as, those who produced the product or provided the service.
The criteria for acceptance are based on the internal and external mutually agreed-to requirements.
3.1 Audits
BOF management should periodically perform project QA reviews and inspects audit results and Customer assessments to ensure the continuing suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness of the QMS. The project audit process is designed to determine whether the QMS is effectively implemented on a project with the desired (beneficial) effect. Such reviews enable management to identify opportunities for improvement and to identify how work practices can be modified to ensure continual improvement.
Project Delivery Manual

Additionally, internal audits look closely at financial controls and procedures. Internal audits also evaluate safety, timekeeping, human resources, procurement, and other important aspects of UTMB business management practices.
If an audit discovers areas of noncompliance, a formal finding should be issued and corrective action must be completed by the PM or other assigned individual. The corrective actions taken to correct the nonconformance must be documented. Before the finding and audit are closed, the deficient areas may be reaudited to ascertain that the corrective actions have been implemented and are effective.
The results of each audit cycle are consolidated for management reporting. The person completing the audit summarizes common findings and issues a report to management. The report focuses on identifying shortcomings to ensure that appropriate preventive measures are taken, but also identifies areas of success that can be applied on future projects. This report becomes a vital source for lessons learned on all projects.
3.2 Reviews and Evaluations
QC includes multiple levels of review to check the adequacy of the work. Each check is intended to ensure that the end product meets performance requirements specified by the user. The table below identifies some common types of review and their purposes. The results of each review and the record of changes made as a result of the review must be maintained in the permanent project record.
Review Type Purpose
Independent or peer review
Confirms the adequacy of the deliverable. Examples include the intradiscipline review of design documents, technical editing of a report, and peer review of reports.
Interface review Verifies compatibility and lack of interferences among disciplines. Typically this involves an interdiscipline review of design documents.
Constructability review
Ensures that plans can be implemented in the field.
Calculation checks Ensures that all calculations are error-free and that software calculations are accurate.
Review by management
Ensures compliance with the terms and conditions of the contract and GBU matrix of authority.
Project managers should ensure that QC checks are conducted for all in-house activities. On studies and simple design projects, the QC process is a relatively simple independent check by the PM or other qualified individual. However, the process becomes significantly more complex on larger projects such as preparation of construction plans in which the engineering calculations, drawings, specifications, and estimates must be checked in detail by a qualified independent engineer.
If the PM decides to outsource or contract any process that could impact product conformity, these processes must be controlled to the same extent as if they were executed in-house. Therefore, QC provisions in the QMS must include evaluations of supplier, contractor, and joint venture partners. Such terms must also be included in the related contractual agreements.
A key QC step is to select suppliers and/or subcontractors based on a demonstrated ability to supply products and services that meet requirements. Quality criteria for selection, evaluation, and reevaluation of suppliers and subcontractors must be stated in contract documents. As with in-house QC activities, the results of evaluations of suppliers and/or contractors, as well as
Project Delivery Manual
G-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
actions taken to correct deficiencies, must be maintained as part of the permanent project record.
The following is a four-phase QC inspection program:
Preparatory: before any definable work has started Initial: when a representative amount of work has been
completed Follow-up: daily to ensure continuing compliance with metrics Completion: after completion of all work with punchlist of
deficiencies
As appropriate to the project (e.g., construction), an inspection and test plan is developed, stipulating the required testing methodologies for applicable products (including those provided by contractors). Contract requirements and applicable codes and standards must be reviewed when determining the type of testing program to implement on a project.
Only qualified and certified staff may perform inspections and analyze the results. Project managers should consider using independent test laboratories for testing of construction or fabricated materials if compentent personnel are not already staffed on the project team. Contractors are responsible for their own QC, which is then validated by the BOF PM.
In-shop supplier quality surveillance is used during the manufacturing or fabrication cycle to confirm compliance with purchase order or subcontract requirements. Through subcontracting arrangements, supplier quality inspection services are available worldwide. A supplier surveillance inspection plan is developed as part of the procurement cycle and includes witness and hold points appropriate for the product at the times inspections are to be performed.
3.3 Effective Corrective and Preventive Action Program
An effective corrective and preventive action program should be implemented on all projects to avoid project nonconformance. If nonconformance does occur, the PM should ensure that it is identified and corrected and that quality is reverified before the product is delivered or used.
Corrective action eliminates the cause of a known nonconformance to prevent its recurrence.
Preventive action is taken to eliminate the causes of potential nonconformances or other undesirable situations.
4. Customer Assessment System (TBD)
Many metrics help determine the quality of our work and serve as a basis for improving work processes. The most important metric is the Customer’s level of satisfaction with our final work product. To measure this level of satisfaction, BOF should implement a formal Customer Assessment to be utilized for Customer feedback on BOF-managed projects.
The Customer Assessment survey has 13 items the Customer would evaluate their satisfaction on every project. The items are as noted in the following table.
Customer Assessment Categories
Safety BOF provides leadership, consistency, and direction to ensure the safety of our staff, contractors and subcontractors, customers, and the public, and our performance aligns with your project safety requirements.
Quality BOF identifies the mutually agreed requirements for your project, delivers products and services accordingly, and strives to continuously improve performance.
All technical work products should be
checked for quality!

Customer Assessment Categories
Integrity BOF operates and performs professionally, deals with all project issues and participates openly, fairly, and honestly.
Diversity BOF encourages and promotes diversity in project delivery and meets the established project goals.
Innovation BOF actively seeks and uses new ideas to deliver effective and efficient solutions for your project.
Sustainability BOF plans and performs work on the project with respect for all valuable and limited resources
Communication BOF keeps you well informed of project progress, issues, and concerns, and responds effectively to oral and written communications.
Teamwork and Collaboration
BOF establishes and maintains productive relationships with you, your project staff and all stakeholders, and understands and respects your priorities in performance of the project.
Proficiency BOF provides qualified staff, and subcontractors for your project, and the appropriate facilities, equipment, and tools for project execution?
Monitoring and Control
BOF monitors and reports project status and forecasts, and proactively controls project cost and schedule performance to achieve the results agreed upon.
Change Management
BOF establishes clear scope requirements, identifies the cost and schedule impact of project changes, informs you and obtains your approval before proceeding.
Risk Management BOF identifies and monitors risks to your project, and mitigates or controls risks to minimize potential project impacts.
Overall Performance Overall, how does BOF performance and the value of our services compare to Customer expectations?
At least once during each project, BOF management should request Customer feedback. Requesting a Customer to complete the Customer Assessment should be part of the standard project closeout procedures. The PM should work with BOF management to ensure that this is accomplished.
After the Customer completes the assessment survey, the results are shared with the project team, the management team, and others as deemed applicable by management.
4.1 Follow-up
“Meets requirements” is the minimum standard that any projects are expected to receive on a Customer assessment. If a Customer satisfaction rating falls below this level in any category, BOF management should promptly follow up with the Customer to understand their concern and identify corrective actions, if appropriate. The PM is usually charged with implementing the corrective actions.
After corrective measures are in place, management follows up with the Customer to confirm acceptability of the action taken.
4.2 Improving Customer Feedback Scores
The obvious way to improve customer feedback scores is to ensure that BOF project execution always meet requirements the first time. This is best accomplished when the PM implements a strong quality program throughout the project and ensures that all project team members are aware of Customer expectations and requirements. Project managers use the following tools to increase conformance with requirements:
“Meets Requirements” is the minimum acceptable
sandard for all projects.

APPENDIX H – SCHEDULE DEVELOPMENT AND REPORTING
The following sections provide additional information on schedule development, baseline schedules, and schedule control basics.
1. Scheduling Basics
1.1 Schedule Terminology
Activity A discrete work item to be performed to deliver the scope of work. Baseline Schedule The Customer-approved schedule that reflects the plan for implementing a
project. This schedule reflects no status, and is sometimes referred to as the “target schedule.”
Constraint An imposed date restriction on the start or finish of an activity that overrides logic relationships.
Critical Activity Any activity on a critical path. A delay in a critical activity will delay the project. Critical Path The critical path is the sequence of activities that determines the minimum
possible duration of the project. When viewed in a network diagram, the critical path is the longest path to the end of the project. Any delay to an activity on the critical path will delay the completion date.
Critical Path Method (CPM)
The most common form of network schedule, the CPM identifies the critical path, which becomes the focus of schedule management.
Early Dates (Early Start/Early Finish)
The calculated earliest dates that an activity can start or finish based on the completion dates and relationships of the activities before it.
Forecast or Current Schedule
The most recent schedule, consisting of actual dates together with the project team’s forecast start and/or finish dates for each activity remaining.
Free Float The amount of time that a noncritical activity can be delayed without affecting the completion date of the next sequential activity.
Integrated Master Schedule
The overall project schedule, created by merging individual contract schedules (i.e., designer and construction contractors) and including relationships between activities that are performed and managed by different groups.
Late Dates (Late Start/Late Finish)
The calculated latest dates that an activity can start or finish without impacting the project completion date.
Milestone An event representing initiation or completion of a significant aspect of work or a contractual requirement.
Monthly Schedule Update
A regularly scheduled status update of the current schedule, reflecting completed work and forecast completion dates for remaining efforts.
Network Schedule A schedule in which the activities are sequenced and linked together based on logical relationships, so changes to one activity are reflected in subsequent related activities.
Relationship Defines how one activity is related to another. A relationship can be one of four types and may include a lag time: 1. Finish to start (FS) activity cannot start until another is finished. 2. Finish to finish (FF) activity cannot finish until another is finished. 3. Start to finish (SF) activity cannot finish until another begins. 4. Start to start (SS) activity cannot begin until another starts
Resource-loaded Schedule
Schedule in which resources (e.g., budget, equipment or craft/discipline hours) are integrated into the schedule activities.
Schedule Variance The difference between identical activities or milestones (typically the project completion milestone) in the current schedule and in the baseline schedule.
Total Float The amount of time an activity completion can be delayed without affecting the project completion date (the difference between early finish and late finish).

H-2 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
1.2 Managing Levels of Schedule Detail
Schedules are often referred to by their “level,” which reflects the amount of detail provided. The following discussion summarizes the description and typical uses for each level of schedule.
The Level 1 or master program schedule is a summary level schedule that establishes key completion objectives for a program or project. It defines the overall period of performance, and shows major milestones, including contractual milestones, deliveries, and major program phases. The Level 1 schedule is used for proposals, executive management, and formal Customer presentations; it defines the performance requirements for the Level 2 schedule (see Figure H-1).
Figure H-1: Relationship Between Schedule Levels
The Level 2 or intermediate schedule contains an intermediate set of activities that must be accomplished to achieve Level 1 schedule objectives. A Level 2 schedule provides the detail of a Level 1 schedule as well as contractually required deliveries of critical long lead items, hardware, software, and other key items. The Level 2 schedule is used for presentations to GBU and division management and for monthly Customer updates. The intermediate schedule defines the performance requirements for the Level 3 schedule.
The Level 3 or detail schedule contains a detailed set of activities that must be accomplished to achieve Level 2 schedule objectives. This schedule contains enough detail for the project manager to plan, direct, and monitor the completion of work and to reliably calculate a project’s critical path. The activity structure of the schedule must be consistent with the project’s tasks.
2. Baseline Schedule and Requirements for Alteration of Baseline
2.1 Baseline Control
Baseline control is a concept that is fundamental to many aspects of project management. To truly manage an effort, a plan must be created and approved, and progress must be measured and compared to the plan. Changes to the plan must be controlled to preserve its integrity as a management tool.
A contract level (Level 1) baseline schedule, consistent with contract requirements, is required for all projects. This schedule is typically a contract deliverable early in the project. Most projects (except for simple studies and level-of-effort work) must establish a Level 3 baseline schedule to measure and manage the work for comparative and variance purposes throughout the project.
On projects that include conceptual planning or preliminary engineering, the official baseline schedule is sometimes established only after completion of these early phases of work.

Project Delivery Manual
H-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Similarly, on a project with multiple phases, it is common for the entire project to be “rebaselined” when transitioning to a new phase. For example, during detailed design, the construction plan often evolves so that the baseline schedule bears little resemblance to the current schedule upon kickoff of the construction phase.
2.2 Approval of Baseline Schedules
The baseline schedule is developed during the Project Definition Phase and approved during the Project Initiation Phase when the Customer Agreement is finalized and approved.
Contractual requirements and overall execution strategy drive the development of the schedule. During the review and approval process, the PM, or delegate, provides documentation of the key points that form the basis of the schedule to ensure that all parties have a mutual understanding and common expectations.
2.3 Changes to the Baseline Schedule
The baseline schedule is revised, as appropriate, with approved changes. As contractual scope or requirements change, those changes are reflected in the baseline schedule. The project’s change order form should include a required field for identifying schedule impacts and a field to indicate whether the baseline should be updated to reflect the change. If a change does not impact schedule, this should be stated in the change.
Some changes impact schedule but are not valid changes to the baseline (e.g., productivity issues or supplier performance.). These changes represent variances from the baseline. In extreme cases, variances from the baseline may accumulate to the point that the baseline schedule no longer is a useful comparison to the current work plan. If so, it may be appropriate to rebaseline the schedule (i.e., to replace the baseline with an entirely new version without the logical audit trail of approved changes). Approval of a new baseline is a formal process that must be approved at the same level as the original baseline.
3. Controlling the Project Schedule
Schedule control is a fundamental principle of project management. All projects require schedule control appropriate to the work. In some cases, this may be a Gantt chart (without logic) or simple milestone schedule; on most projects, a logic-based CPM schedule is necessary to control the work.
Project schedules provide responsible individuals with timely and accurate status on work performed and timetables for upcoming efforts. However, schedule control does much more: it ensures that decision makers (project team, PM, Customer, management, etc.) have all the information required to make decisions without impacting project schedule in an unknown or unanticipated way. When changes are made from the plan, schedule control allows downstream impacts to be predicted and assessed in sufficient detail to allow for informed management decisions.
Project management means having schedule control, not merely having a schedule. To implement an effective schedule control system, the project manager ensures that the schedule is updated, measured, analyzed, and enacted in a timely manner. The process begins by verifying that the schedule (durations, relationships, resources, etc.) is valid and achievable. The project manager must then implement a process to update and analyze the schedule at least monthly. Schedule risks must be identified so the project team can focus on activities that pose the greatest threats or present the greatest opportunities. Action plans must be developed and implemented.
4. Scheduling Software
Project Delivery Manual
H-4 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
Several software products are available for scheduling projects. When selecting a scheduling package, the PM should consider Customer requirements, electronic interfaces (customers, contractors, etc.), project complexity and risk, skills and experience of the project team, and size of the schedule.
Today’s scheduling applications have few limitations. In most cases, functionality is limited by the user’s knowledge and experience. Project managers must ensure that the schedule is developed and maintained by a qualified individual. Table H-2 summarizes the standard software available.
It is recommended that a project controller be responsible to maintain schedules for project managers so the project managers can focus on executing the entire project versus constant schedule maintenance.

APPENDIX I – BUDGET DEVELOPMENT AND CONTROL
1. Terminology
The word “baseline” is used in different ways when discussing budgets. Its meaning can usually be derived from the context. However, use of the following terms will help eliminate confusion.
Baseline Budget The “official” value against which cost performance is measured.
Budget Rebaseline Discarding the current cost baseline and replacing it because it is no longer a reasonable value accepted by BOF or the Customer. This is most common as a project transitions into a new phase (e.g., upon completion of design).
Current Baseline Budget The initial cost baseline plus any approved change orders and/or rebaselines. Initial or Original Baseline Budget
The cost budget established at the start of the project.
Performance Target A value (often more aggressive than the baseline budget) used as a goal for individual or team performance. Targets may be recognized by the Customer or they may be strictly internal to BOF.
1.1 The Baseline Budget Process
To ensure that project tracking is as accurate and efficient as possible, the first step in the budgeting process is to understand the project and determine the appropriate level of detail for the project’s budget. The level of detail may vary from project to project, but it must be sufficient to allow for meaningful financial analysis. This requires that the typical budget be very detailed.
1.2 Revising the Baseline Budget
The original budget established at the outset of a project becomes the initial baseline budget. As work progresses, approved Customer change orders may lead to changes in the baseline budget. The current baseline budget refers to the original cost baseline plus any approved changes. Variances resulting from performance issues do not result in a change to the baseline budget.
A budget rebaseline is a comprehensive re-estimating process performed when the baseline budget no longer represents the work at hand. The most common reason for a budget rebaseline is the transition to a new project phase.
For example, a baseline budget may be developed for the entire project before it is designed. During the design phase, the project may evolve so that the construction cost is significantly different from what was originally envisioned. Rather than begin construction with major variances, the construction budget will typically be rebaselined. Depending on the cause, it may be necessary to rebaseline the budget to provide a realistic measure of project performance, particularly if the performance is driven by the Customer (e.g., slow Customer reviews). However, internal productivity issues are not typically cause for a rebaseline because such an action masks problems that require corrective action. In any case, a rebaseline of the budget must be approved by the same levels required to approve the original baseline.
2. Cost Control
The goal of cost control is always to complete projects and meet all contractual requirements as efficiently as possible. Implementing cost control systems early in the life of a project will increase the chances of overall project success. Good cost control systems help in many ways, but most importantly, they provide decision makers with timely and accurate information necessary to make daily business decisions. They also prevent unauthorized commitments and expenditures from impacting a project’s bottom line.
Project Delivery Manual
I-2 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
2.1 Overview
The discipline of Cost Engineering monitors costs against baseline and provides timely status reports on performance, trends, variances, forecasts, commitments, and expenditures for all project elements.
To provide effective cost controls, the cost engineer would interact daily with the PM, other project team members including project A/E, CMs, procurement personnel, and any other project team members.
An initial function in establishing the project control system is incorporating the cost estimate, as budgets, into the cost control system.
It is important to consider in the planning phase that when adjunct databases are deployed for project control purposes, a rigorous reconciliation process must be established between that database and PeopleSoft.
2.2 Managing Commitments and Accruals
2.2.1 Commitments
A commitment is an obligation (most likely contractual such as a purchase order (PO) or contract) to spend project funds. All commitments (POs, contracts, etc.) issued by the project must be coded to the PeopleSoft CFS. Where assigned, the project cost engineer should be responsible for the accuracy of this coding.
2.2.2 Actual Costs
Actual costs provide a snapshot of project costs that have been recognized by the accounting system. Where assigned, the project cost engineer is responsible for validating project costs, and, if they are incorrect, for the actions necessary to correct them. Where applicable, the project cost engineer is also responsible for reporting these costs within all management reports.
For OFPC projects, project management, or construction management contracts for which we must track not only BOF costs but the Customer’s costs, the project cost engineer is responsible for tracking commitments and cost as discussed in this appendix.
Great diligence should be exercised to ensure that commitments and actual costs are entered into the control system timely for reporting purposes.
2.2.3 Accruals/Encumbrances
Accruals/Encumbrances are unrecognized incurred costs, that is, costs that are incurred by the project but are not yet recognized by cost reporting systems. The following are two common examples of costs that may be significant but have been delayed in being posted to the job cost system:
Contractor work that has been performed but not paid for (committed expenditures but not yet job costed)
Materials received on site but invoices not yet processed
Costs are incurred by projects when authorized work is performed or materials are delivered to the project site. These incurred costs can be entered into and tracked as either actual costs or accrued costs. Actual costs are costs that have been incurred by a project contractor or supplier, have been invoiced to UTMB, and have been loaded into the accounting system. Accrued costs are costs that have been incurred by a project
Ensuring accuracy of data between the
BOF database and PeopleSoft is
important.
Project Delivery Manual
I-3 PROJECT DELIVERY MANUAL-R0.DOCX Rev 0
contractor or supplier but that have not yet been invoiced to UTMB, or may have been invoiced but have not yet been processed into the accounting system.
2.2.4 Control of Procurement and Subcontract Costs
Many projects include significant procurement and subcontract costs. Project managers must carefully manage both commitments and actual expenditures for goods or services from third parties.
2.2.5 Review of Actual Costs
Actual cost should be reviewed routinely for accuracy. Commitments and expenditures should be checked and, if in error, corrected. It is critical that this process not be delayed. As previously stated, inaccurate job costs have a significant impact on billing, cash flow, and financial analysis.
