Construction Inspection for the FUTURE

History of Prequalification

• Firms were Prequalified 20 years ago

• Judged to be ineffective and ended

• ODOT began requiring resumes

• Prequalification based on HT Series Training

evaluated 7-8 Years ago

• Not enough capacity to train consultants

• Evaluated again in 2012

History of ODOT Services Contracts

LPA Local Let Participation Requirements

• The LPA must have designated a Person in Responsible Charge.

• The LPA shall have sufficient expertise and capability to perform and/or supervise the project.

• Projects must be administered by a Professional Engineer designated as the LPA Project Engineer.

• Projects must be administered in accordance with ODOT’s Locally Administered Transportation Projects Manual of Procedures – Chapter on Construction Contract Administration.

LPA Local Let Participation Requirements

Project Engineer

- Professional Engineer licensed by the State of Ohio

- Previously performed similar services in a successful

manner

- Day – to – day responsibilities over engineering aspects

of designing and constructing the project

LPA Local Let Participation Requirements

• The LPA must have established and

documented practices for each of the

following:

o Dispute Resolution / Claims Management Process

o Finance, Accounting and Record Keeping

o Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964

o Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) / (EDGE)

o Davis-Bacon and/or State Prevailing Wages

Trend is Upward for both

ODOT and Local Let Program!

CY 2014 CY 2015

ODOT $ 2,190 Million $ 2,044 Million

LPA + Other $ 325 Million $ 350 Million

Total $ 2.52 Billion $ 2.39 Billion

Construction Inspection for the FUTURE

• To date, ODOT contracts have been mostly

construction inspection – project inspector

level personnel managed by ODOT

• ODOT has never issued a full construction

administration contract

• LPA contracts may include inspection and

administration

Construction Inspection for the FUTURE

Current Consultant Selection Practices

• ODOT• No standard qualifications for inspectors

• ODOT bridge painting inspection and asphalt courses are required for some contracts

• Scope of services documents are generic - do not include detailed requirements

• Local Governments • No standard qualifications for inspectors or contract

administration

• Scope of services documents are inconsistent

Construction Inspection for the FUTURE

• Consultant performance on ODOT contracts

has generally been good

• Performance on LPA Local Let contracts has

been inconsistent

– Contract administration and inspection has been

found deficient in many instances

• Committee determined that individuals

should be prequalified rather than firms

Construction Inspection for the FUTURE

• September 26, 2011: Consultant Selection Review Team Report and Recommendations– Recommended the increased use of external certifications (NACE, ACI etc.)

and ODOT training (asphalt, bridge painting) as selection sub-factors.

• January, 2012– Division of Construction Administration determined that prequalification

should be considered

• February, 2012: ODOT/ACEC Committee Initiated
