As an owners representative/project manager– responsible for multiple store roll out under open book management contracts throughout NY, PA, TX, MN, AZ, design and maintenance of an automated master development program schedule. This was used by management to identify site feasibility, design and construction project life cycle time by location and by project type. This system was also used by management to coordinate responsibilities of internal resources and departments, identify optimum program start dates and internal purchase timing to meet optimum grand opening dates.
Implemented standard turn over procedures to ensure time and cost effective transition between contractors, fixture crews and grand opening dates. Established standard supplemental contract conditions to ensure retail client turnover priorities were met, minimize construction claims and to promote quality and timely turn over. Established standard project development phases and identified minimum due diligence and feasibility criteria to be met before design and feasibility funding was approved.

Shopping center (old Wal-Mart conversion) in Alexandria Louisiana, Tenants included Old Navy, Michael’s, Shoe Carnival, Goody’s, and Best Buy. Due to limited time constraints, varied requirements by each tenant and limited design information available, I identified the need to proceed with a general contract bid package that would deliver immediate site mobilization, final budget control with minimal design information available. Designed the bid package including detailed performance criteria to be met for each tenant by detailed CSI code format. Awarded and managed the project under a “Cost plus a fee with a negotiated Guaranteed Maximum†Contract – AIA standard document 111, with supplemental detailed performance criteria added.
