LONG BEACH PLAYGROUNDS, RENOVATION OF 12 PLAY AREAS LONG BEACH, CA PROJECT UNDERSTANDING We have long-standing successful relationships with Southern California Cit- ies, Los Angeles County, Orange County, the City of Los Angeles and with local School District. We are experienced in working with Public Boards and Commu- nity Groups. Our firm has developed interactive management methods to reach consensus on program goals and solutions with all parties. Our initial approach to a project is to listen and reflect the needs of the City before developing design solutions. A key step is to implement a facility pro- gram that incorporates the goals and needs of various user groups. Our gaming process, conducted by Mr. Albert and Mr. Foley insure a completed project will respond to the special program aspirations of the City. We develop options, conduct interactive programming sessions, demon- strate alternative solutions, present models or rendered studies and we are open to input throughout the process. We seek to create an Architecture that reflects the aspirations of users and to demonstrate inspired design and space planning, to allow future flexibility and maximum utilization. By working closely with the user and responding to needs and goals, we have created facilities that people like to use and that are shaped by program, context, and budget. Gaming is a method of involving each decision-maker. We believe that an in- teractive design process with as broad a group of users as is practical will shape the program and the built facility. We have used the “gaming process” with the Community groups as well. This method allows us to resolve conflicts among user groups. Our buildings become more attractive and better utilized facilities within the community. The design challenges presented by the goals of Heritage Park include some consistent issues of expenditure of public funds. Through experience, we have developed interactive design methods to reach a consensus on program goals by separating needs from wants. Our Process includes in Section D basic ser- vices listed Basis of Design Work: The design work shall comply with the Agreement and with the scope of the Project as defined in Program and the approved project budget. Design work for all phases shall be based upon the approved submittal and cost estimates of the previous design phase. The Project Manager helps to “front load” the delivery of design services to en- sure that certain tasks normally accomplished in later phases will be completed earlier so that problematic critical-path issues are identified and resolved prior to causing delays. A Project Manager uses a drawing checklist that identifies task-critical components and indicates at which phase they will be addressed. This approach also allows more time for coordination and thoroughness during construction documents. See Section D.
