Session 2: Thursday, May 26, 2011; 9:00-10:15 a.m. - Safety and How It's Affecting Source Selection, Room: Texas C Within federal procurement, safety has always been a watch-word, playing an important part for both government and industry. As technology, systems, processes and procedures evolve, implementing best practices from lessons learned now requires a strategic approach to safety which impacts the total procurement process. This panel is an important and essential step in making that happen to the benefit of the tax payer, government and industry. Don't be left to wonder why you were not selected for a federal DOD procurement opportunity, when your past experience, technical, and pricing solutions appeared to be competitive. Moderator: Mr. Ron Brown, CPC, DBIA, F.SAME,CEO, R.B. Brown Consulting LLC Speakers:
Session 3: Thursday, May 26, 2011; 11:00 a.m.-12:15 p.m. There has been much emphasis in recent conferences on different construction project execution methods (e.g. design-build, construction management at risk, MILCON Transformation, etc.), and less focus on AE contracts to support DOD construction and environmental missions. This session will provide insight into the current status of AE contracts, where they are heading, and where we may see potential changes coming in the future. We also will provide some perspectives from both sides of the spectrom (Federal contracting vs. private sector) into what it takes to successfully pursue AE contracts with the Department of Defense. Moderator: Mr. Mike Thompson, P.E., Director of Engineering, Thompson Engineering Speakers:
Session 4: Thursday, May 26, 2011; 2:00-3:15 p.m. Building Information Modeling (BIM) will continue to be one of the key critical factors considered in federal solicitations and project performance evaluations for the next decade. Don't miss the boat! Join us and our agency representatives to make sure you know the current "best in class" and the vision of the future. Moderator: Mr. Michael Tardif, Assoc. AIA, CSI, Hon. SDA, LEED AP, Director Integrated Project Delivery Systems, Grunley Construction Company, Inc. Speakers:
