Subject: Construction Project: Agreement of Work Meeting Notes |
|
Hello Mr. Wilson, Below, please find notes from today’s meeting: · This project is classified as a standard operation project. Construction will be based on a predefined layout.
· The scope of this project is to provide you and your family a custom-built 4-BR/3-BA single family home that will be completed within the next 180 days. The size of the home will be roughly 4,500 sqft and will consist of four levels, including a finished basement. · The single-family home that you have selected is from our Bainbridge family of homes. We have provided you with a layout of the home, which you approved when you signed the contract. · Within the next two weeks, we will provide a high-level schedule of the project, which will outline our key activities and milestones. At the completion of each milestone, we will request your approval to ensure that the work has been successfully completed. This will serve as your and our acceptance criteria for measuring the progress and success of the project. · The agreed upon goals and objectives of the project are as follows: · We will deliver a home that meets our quality standards. Our quality standards are the highest in the industry and I am confident you will be extremely pleased with the quality of your new home.
· We will deliver your home no later than the agreed delivery time of within 180 days of the signed contract. In many cases, we successfully deliver ahead of schedule, but as you know, weather and other delays may impact this schedule. · We will keep you informed of every step of the project, so there will be no surprises. · We will use a dedicated project team and resources in this project. We will provide the right people and materials to ensure that your project is delivered on time. In the rare case that we have a resource issue, we will have backup resources who can pitch-in when needed. · As your project manager, I will use the best project management concepts in construction management to manage this project. · We will ensure that the project stays within budget. If there are any indications that we cannot keep to the project budget, we will inform you as soon as possible. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to go over any of these details. Again, thank you for meeting with our team this afternoon. We are looking forward to working with you to build your new home. John Smith, Project Manager
