4: Real Property Projects
Improve real property capital design and construction project planning and delivery. Other Information:
GSA is realigning its national design and construction team and developing tools and training related to scope of work for
architect/engineer contracts, construction services, feasibility studies, and prospectus development studies (PDS). A PDS
is required to support the documents (prospectuses) that GSA submits to the Congress for authorization of major capital projects.
The reconfigured team will capitalize on best practices, lessons learned, institutional knowledge, and collective project
expertise. We will define customer and program requirements more effectively. We will develop detailed schedule projections
and analyze project cost impacts and contractor claims. We will identify and mitigate risks inherent in specific projects
to reduce the number and magnitude of cost and time impacts on capital construction projects. These steps will facilitate
more consistent interaction with the customer. GSA will also increase its use of contractor past performance data in Architect/Engineer
selections, by enhancing current business processes and improving current practices for capturing past performance feedback
on contractors.
