6 Construction of a Sports Surface This phase reviews the project brief and considers factors such as; location, sports usage, funding, procurement and project management. 1. Project Brief This phase includes the development of a business plan, planning application and, if required, funding application. A consultant is often appointed during this phase. Prior to the design phase a detailed site invesitigation is normally required. This includes topographical, geotechnical, electrical and drainage surveys. This phase includes the production of full design specifications and technical drawings or a scope of works document for inclusion in a design and construct tender process. Depending on the size of the project it may be neceesary to employ a CDM Coordinator at this stage. In this section, after receiving tenders a review of the submissions is undertaken. This includes tender evaluation, short-listing and eventual contractor selection. This phase includes the construction of the facility and will include key stage inspections undertaken to assess build quality, workmanship and design specification conformity. This section includes the hand-over of the completed project. Prior to or immediately after completion performance testing should be undertaken to ensure specification compliance. Additionally, a maintenance manual should be provided by the installer and/or system supplier. This phase includes the ongoing maintenance programme and warranty period of the instalation. As required performance tests are undertaken to monitor surface behaviour. 2. Project Feasibility 3. Site Investigation 4. Design Specification 5. Tender Process 6. Construction Period 7.
