The contract agreement will provide for payment for phases of work completed with options to proceed through all phases or to discontinue work as the circumstances may dictate. Upon selection of a firm, more defined Scope of Work will be developed. The city anticipates a contracted Scope of Work which will include: - Evaluation of Existing Conditions - Cost Estimating at each design phase - Production of computer-generated renderings - Design Development - Construction Documents - Permitting - Bid-Phase Assistance - Value Engineering as necessary - Construction Administration - Project Closeout - Warranty-Phase Assistance However, the city reserves the right to include additional project elements in the initial or subsequent professional services agreements as the city may (in its sole discretion) deem appropriate.
