Portfolio Milestone (60 Points)

Important! Read First

Choose one of the following two assignments to complete this week. Do not do both

assignments. Identify your assignment choice in the title of your submission.

Option #1: Construction Critique (Your Construction Firm)

Choose a public project put out for open bid whose information and RFP are publicly

available online or any other construction project to whose RFP you have access. In part,

the intent of this assignment is to evaluate your skills in finding these resources. You

need to search construction bid opportunities lists that local and federal agencies

provide. You can also review some of the archived bids and find out the current status of

those projects. Chapter Section 2.6 of the textbook identifies a few resources where

construction bids are advertised. Research the building/project and identify the project

type, the primary players, and other information.

Deliverable:

Prepare a narrative comprising five sections, each section about half a page to answer

the following questions:

1. What is the project, where is it located, and what is the project scope of work?

2. Who are the primary players on the project (e.g., owner, architect/designer,

general contractor)?

3. How much was the contract for the building or project?

4. How long did the project take to build or will it take, given the completion

schedule?

5. What are some modern methods of construction or emerging management

techniques used (or that you recommend being used)?

Your paper should conform to the CSU Global Writing Center (link in left navigation

panel).

Option #2 - Residential Project (Revit Architecture)/npanen.

ArchitectureLinks to an external site. course.

2. Upload the native Revit Architecture file to the assignment folder on the class

construction or emerging management techniques. Explain your rationale for its

appropriateness.
