7) Project Schedule The PMOC should assess the accuracy of the schedule in form and substance. Consider the durations and logic of the activities in relation to those of other Project Sponsor’s, and the Project Sponsor’s track record for implementing similar projects with FTA finding. Identify sources of uncertainty or missing activities on the schedule, and their potential impact on the schedule. Evaluate the adequacy of the scheduling software for this stage of the project. Identify the potential cost impacts of the schedule risks. 8) Project Management Plan The PMOC should evaluate the Project Sponsor’s Project Management Plan (PMP) to assure it complies with FTA’s guidelines. The plan shall include: project overview; organization and staffing; project management and controls; planning/conceptual design phase management; final design phase management; construction phase management; close out phase management; quality management; risk management; procurement; contract administration; and communications. The PMP at this stage of project development must have detailed sections of project organization and staffing, project budget and schedule, quality assurance/quality control, risk management, and project controls, with supporting procedures as necessary. These procedures include Document Control Procedures, Change Order Procedures, Material Testing Procedures, Internal Reporting Procedures, and Operational Testing Procedures. Other sections related to the construction phase may not require the same level of detail, unless, the Project Sponsor anticipates receiving early construction packages, through use of the Letter of No Prejudice (LONP). 9) Project Sponsor’s Technical Capacity and Capability The PMOC should evaluate the Project Sponsor’s capacity and capability to undertake and successfully complete the PE Phase, through review of the Project Management Plan, relevant project documents, and interviews with key project team members and stakeholders. The capacity areas to be evaluated are: management structure; community, political and institutional support; staff and consultant organization; along with professional skills and experience to effectively implement the proposed project, in conformance with sound engineering and project management practices. In particular, review and assess the qualifications of the staff and consultants that have prepared the documents submitted to date, including conceptual design, cost and schedule. 7.0 REPORT, PRESENTATION, RECONCILIATION The PMOC shall provide FTA with a written report of its findings, analysis, recommendations, professional opinions, and a description of the review activities undertaken. After FTA approval, the PMOC should share the report with the Grantee. In the event that differences of opinion exist between the PMOC and the Grantee regarding the PMOC’s findings, the FTA may direct the PMOC to reconcile with the Grantee and provide FTA with a report addendum covering the agreed modifications by the Grantee and PMOC. The report formatting requirements of OP-1 apply. When necessary, PMOC shall perform data analysis and develop data models that meet FTA requirements using Microsoft Office products such as OP 46.1 LPA Review and Readiness to enter PE Revision 0, June 2008 Page 7 of 8
Excel and Word and use FTA-templates when provided. The PMOC may add other software as required but documentation and report data shall be made available to FTA. OP 46.1 LPA Review and Readiness to enter PE Revision 0, June 2008 Page 8 of 8
