Wastewater Treatment |

The
Owner was defended against the GC’s claim related to construction of a
wastewater facility. An Expert Report was issued that included a
detailed schedule analysis demonstrating that the GC was only entitled
to 20% of its claimed damages, which was then offered to the
GC. Assistance was provided during a one year period of
negotiations, resulting in the GC going bankrupt and the surety
accepting the original offer.

Project
Management assistance was provided to the JV for this 130MGD water
treatment plant. Planning, scheduling, estimating, budgeting, and
contract administration from design through bidding for the project was
also provided. During the design, coordination of the design work
by the JV and its subconsultants was performed. During bidding
the construction contracting plan was developed to divide the work into
separate contracts for the reservoir, plant, and pumping station. The
project management and progress reporting requirements included in the
contracts for the various construction package were also developed.

Scrubbers

An
Owner selected a supplier (EPC) to furnish and install a new dry
scrubber for a coal-burning power plant. The EPC changed the lime
hydration system, and the contractor installing the system made a claim
for increased costs allegedly due to the new equipment. An
evaluation of the changes to foundations, steel, piping, electrical,
and instrumentation, was made and included in an Expert Report used by
the EPC in successful negotiations with the Owner.
