  1. Value Engineering In Design Aspects of Design that Affect Cost

  2. Material Requirements • Concrete and asphalt • Higher quality = increased cost • Sourcing / location • Upfront mix design approval • Amount of material vs. fixed testing costs

  3. Project Schedule • Accelerated schedule = increased cost • Construction phasing • Onsite / offsite phases • Limits effect on mission • Used to balance schedule / cost

  4. Contractor Access • Limits productivity = increased cost • Time sensitive work items – Paving • Compromise between security / mission operations and construction

  5. Minimizing Risk • Detailed and clear bidding documents/SOW • Existing conditions + weather • Designs that limit exposure • Protect subgrade and underlying materials • Material submittals approval prior to construction
