3.4 DESIGN CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT (DCM)
3.4.1 Procedures
Develop and maintain effective, DCM procedures to control and track all revisions to the design documents subsequent to the Interim Design Submission and continuing through submission of the As-Built documents.
After the final design is accepted, this process provides control of and
SECTION 01 33 16.00 10 Page 19 documents revisions to the accepted design (See Special Contract Requirement: Deviating From the Accepted Design). Submit the DCM procedures within the Design Quality Control Plan.
a. Include authorities and concurrences in the DCM system to authorize revisions, including documentation as to why the revision is required.
b. An internal system may be used with interactive Government concurrences or the Government's "Dr Checks Design Review and Checking System" may be used.
c. Make the DCM data available to the Government reviewers at all times.
3.4.2 Tracking Design Review Comments
Although an internal system for overall design configuration management is allowed, use the DrChecks Design Review and Checking System to initiate, respond to, resolve and track Government design review comments.
The Government will set up the project in DrChecks. Throughout the design process parties enter, track, and back-check comments using the DrChecks system. Designers of Record annotate comments timely and specifically to indicate exactly the action to be taken or why the action is not required. After the design review conference and prior to the next design submittal for the package, the DORs annotate those comments that require DOR action or design revision to show how and where it has been addressed in the design documents. These procedures are part of the required design configuration management plan. Flag comments considered critical by the conference participants.
3.4.2.1 DrChecks Initial Account Set-Up
Identify a contact person within the office to act as the administrator for all Contractor personnel, including subcontractors, that will be accessing the PROJNET Dr Checks system. Through the Contracting Officer, coordinate with the Project Manager and the District PROJNET administrator for system access, system instruction and comment process instructions.
PROJNET contains an introductory file and other tutorial material that can be accessed once user accounts have been established. Upon log in, select Portals/User Documentation.
3.4.2.2 DrChecks Review Comments
Annotate and resolve all comments prior to the next submittal. Include the DrChecks comments and responses in the design analysis for record in the next design submittal for the package.
a. Upon review of comments prior to the design review conference, the DOR(s) evaluate the comments. Include exactly what action will be taken or why action is not required.
b. After the review conference, the DOR(s) formally respond to each applicable comment in DrChecks a second time, prior to the next submittal, clearly indicating what action was taken and what drawing/spec/analysis changed. Designers of Record are encouraged to directly contact reviewers to discuss and agree to the formal comment responses rather than relying only on DrChecks and review meetings to discuss comments. With the next design submittal, reviewers will
SECTION 01 33 16.00 10 Page 20 back-check answers to the comments against the new submittal, in addition to reviewing additional design work.
c. Clearly annotate in DrChecks those comments that require effort outside the requirements of the contract. Do not proceed with work outside the contract until a modification to the contract is properly executed.
3.5 DISCIPLINE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
