F. Critical Path Method PHASING MEETINGS
A. If required and prior to submission of Schematic 1 material, the A/E shall meet
with the VA's Project Manager, a critical path method (CPM) representative, and
medical center representatives to discuss and outline phasing requirements for the
project. These phasing requirements shall describe the general sequence of the project
work, estimated project duration, and what Government constraints will exist that will
influence the Contractor's approach to the construction project. The A/E shall be
responsible for recording the phasing requirements.
B. Submit a phasing narrative and phasing plans (on reduced size plans) within two
weeks after each phasing meeting to the VA Project Manager. The CPM staff will
review these submission(s) and return comments to the A/E within two weeks of receipt.
The A/E will then use this information in preparing their schematic, design development
and construction document submissions.
