Phase 1 Process • Paper

– EMAIL PDF’S OR CD’S TO DOCUMENT CONTROL

• Excel Logs – INCOMING – OUTGOING

• Routing Sheets – LEAD IDENTIFIES DISTRIBUTION – DOCUMENTS DISTRIBUTED TO SELECTED USERS

• Databases – ACCESS FOR COST PROPOSALS AND CHANGE ORDERS – METRO DATABASE FOR RFIS AND SUBMITTALS

7

Page 8: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

Phase 2 Project Controls

• Contract Management (PCM) – CONTRACT DOCUMENTS – BUDGETING AND FORECASTING

• SharePoint – DOCUMENT STORAGE/FILES – LINKS TO PCM

• FIS – METRO’S FINANCIAL SYSTEM – CAPTURES ACTUAL EXPENDITURES

• P6 – SCHEDULING

8

Page 9: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

Customized Components

• Web Interface – ALLOWS COLLABORATION – CONTRACTORS UPLOAD TO PCM AND SHAREPOINT

• SharePoint “smart folders” – CUSTOMIZED AUTO-ROUTING

• “Actual Cost Mapping” – REPORTS BUDGET, COMMITMENTS & ACTUALS TOGETHER

• EAC Upload/Export – ALLOWS WAREHOUSING OF ESTIMATE AT COMPLETIONS – FACILITATES REPORTING AND COMPARISONS

Web-Based DUI

• Mandatory – MAJOR CONTRACTORS UPLOAD

• Parameters for Upload – CONTRACT – DOCUMENT TYPE

• Features – CHANGE DOCUMENTS LINKED TO RELATED DOCUMENTS – SUBMITTALS LINK TO UPLOADED SUBMITTAL LOG

Defining the DUI

12

1

• Reviewed Contracts

• Developed Process Flow

• Define Document Types, Screens, Modules

2

• Provided Mapping Specs for Data

• Default basic information (contract, to/from) • Defined numbering convention for documents

3 • Wrote “hover over” Tool Tips

Sample Mapping Spec

15

Screen content maps to PCM data fields

Page 16: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

DUI – What Users See • User PCM Access and

Security determine – PROJECT LIST – DOCUMENT TYPES

16

Page 17: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

DUI – RFI’s • Add New RFI

• Revise RFI – SELECT FROM PREVIOUSLY ONE

• Design-Bid-Build Projects – A/E PROPOSED SOLUTIONS

17

Page 18: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

DUI – New RFI’s • Features

– DEFAULT TO/FROM – TOOL TIPS – CAPTURES CONTRACTOR’S

DOC #

• Completeness Check – REQUIRED FIELDS

HIGHLIGHTED IF BLANK WHEN “SUBMIT”

• Attachments – REQUIRED FOR ALL DOCS

Sample Tool Tips Spec

19

Minimal Training due to Tool Tips for all fields

Page 20: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

DUI –Proposals • Proposals link to related documents

Page 21: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

DUI – Other Correspondence

• Other Correspondence – MAPS TO CORRESPONDENCE REC’D

• Document Type – CUSTOM FIELD – DYNAMIC DROPDOWN TO

DICTIONARY IN PCM – SEPARATE SHAREPOINT FOLDERS BY

DOCUMENT TYPE

21

Page 22: Managing light rail at light speed ppt

Upon Submitting Document

• Content Integrity – ERRORS IF NOT ACCEPTABLE TO BOTH PCM AND SHAREPOINT

• Capacity – ACCEPTS MULTIPLE ATTACHMENTS – UP TO 100 MB TOTAL

• Automates Some Document Control Functions – LOGS APPROPRIATE INFO IN PCM; CLOSES RELATED DOCUMENT – USES PCM “VERSIONS” – FILES IN SHAREPOINT FOLDER

Challenges

• Diverse Users/Computers – DIFFERENT WEB BROWSERS – OUTSIDE USERS OWN IT CONSTRAINTS/LIMITATIONS

• Large Files – ESPECIALLY DRAWING SUBMITTALS

• User Reluctance – LOG IN TO GET DOCUMENTS VS PDF ATTACHMENTS

WIIFM • Streamlined Processes

– PAPERLESS COMMUNICATIONS – MINIMIZES USER ENTRY & ELIMINATES USER ERROR – REDUCES DUPLICATION (SINGLE POINT OF DATA ENTRY)

• User Access to Documents from Any Location

• Project Performance – QUICKER RESPONSE AND BETTER COMMUNICATION – BETTER DOCUMENTATION FOR CLAIMS AVOIDANCE – EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES – CREDIBLE REPORTING

• Proactive vs. Reactive Problem Resolution – TEAM FREE TO ANALYZE, CONTROL AND CORRECT
