Portfolio Milestone (70 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)

You will be working on the same project throughout the term. Your final Portfolio Project

will be a compilation of your Portfolio assignments throughout the term.

Assume you are the president of a construction general contractor and you intend to

promote your company and attract clients. You intend to prepare a marketing and

prequalification package that, at a minimum, contains the following:

have designed for your company. The letter properly introduces your firm,

provides adequate contact information, identifies your company's areas of

contractor, and provides other relevant and necessary information to describe

why owner firms/clients should hire your firm for their construction projects.

The letter is meant to function as a prequalification statement written in

narrative form that describes why you believe your firm is a qualified general

contractor.

b. A list of at least five potential qualifying questions that you would like to receive

from owner firms/prospective clients. This list is not intended to be

comprehensive (all-inclusive) but it is meant to be a complete list (i.e., properly

satisfying the objectives) that demonstrates the merits of your company in a

reasonable and appropriate manner. By properly responding to these

questions, prepare a two-page document that provides insight into your firm.

Out of these five questions, a minimum of three questions should not be

covered by the content of the introductory letter referenced above.

Option #2 - Residential Project (Revit Architecture)

Create a sample Revit model for a one-story building, consisting of a minimum of three

rooms and a living area, and upload the native Revit Architecture file to the assignment

area in class. At this stage, adding exterior walls, levels, grids, and columns is
