Design Coordination Team (DCT)
The SFWMD Design Coordination Team membership is comprised of South Florida Water Management District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Jacksonville District) and Florida Department of Environmental Protection. It includes staff from various disciplines including project management and program controls; planning, engineering, and design and construction management; real estate; research and monitoring; operations and maintenance; environmental compliance; regulation and permitting; and others. The SFWMD DCT meets monthly to provide consistent and effective communication, coordination and issue resolution on projects included in the SFWMD Design Agreement.
The SFWMD DCT provides technical and managerial oversight on issues related to design including:
- Design schedules and budgets
- Design plan and work products include Project Management Plans, Project Implementation Reports, Pilot Project Design Reports and Design Documentation Reports
- Construction plans and specifications
- Updates of the Master Program Management Plan
- Real property and relocation requirements
- Contract scopes of work, modifications and costs
- Program and project cost projections
- Anticipated requirements for performance of operation, maintenance, repair, replacement and rehabilitation of a project
- Restoration Coordination and Verification (RECOVER) efforts
- Development of program-level procurement strategies
The DCT also reviews design cost estimates and actual expenditures to ensure that design work is proceeding cost effectively and within budget. The DCT will identify and attempt to resolve technical issues that may impact major milestones or budgets, or have a system-wide restoration impact.
The DCT reviews budgets and schedules for each project and conducts a formal review of each project on a semiannual basis. Project managers provide the DCT with a monthly overview of the technical and funding status of their projects as well as a summary of any technical, schedule or budget issues, and the actions being taken for resolution.
