Improve your projects by conducting formal Quality Assurance (QA) reviews to reduce document inconsistencies and contractor questions. The interface between design disciplines generates the greatest risk of design errors, omissions and inconsistencies. Yet, interdisciplinary reviews are often neglected due to lack of time, funding, or expertise. Conspectus provides the expertise and the resources to relieve the schedule pressure from the design and construction team. The QA review will pay for itself and more by saving the construction administration time to receive, process, evaluate, and respond to RFIs and change orders. When Conspectus conducts QA reviews all disciplines are checked and held to the same standard of care. Our goal is to identify document inconsistencies, missing information, and constructability issues to help ensure the construction proceeds smoothly. We find the best coordinated drawing sets still generate an average of 5 review comments per sheet and the average sets generate more than 10 comments per sheet. Each comment represents a potential RFI or change order. So even the best documents may generate 1,000 RFIs for a 200 sheet drawing set. When proper interdisciplinary coordination occurs, everyone wins. Contractors will have greater confidence in the construction documents. The design team will spend less time answering the contractor’s questions and solving construction problems. Owners will perceive a high level of quality from the design and construction team, improving the reputation of everyone involved. Choose Conspectus to help improve your construction documents and reduce your construction administration time.
