Inproviding Construction Management services to WSDOT, we will integrate and work closely with WSDOT, the SR 99project management team, and the design-builder to deliver the SR 99 Design-Build project. The Parsons team brings theperfect balance of a professional history of worldwide tunneling construction management (CM) experience andextensive CM experience on transportation design-build tunnel contracts, providing WSDOT the reassurance of a trustedand experienced team that understands its role on this project. Parsons will lead our team, which includes Halcrow Inc.,CMTS Inc., The VOSK Group, and a number of recognized technical support experts. Although not required, we arepleased to integrate CMTS, a minority-owned firm, and VOSK, a DBE firm, into our team, and continue our dedication tosupporting these businesses. Collectively, we have performed every role – construction manager, equity partner,program manager, designer, and contractor – and can offer this experience to WSDOT.Leadership with Careers Completely Dedicated to Tunnel ConstructionWe believe there is no one better suited to successfully anchor our team than our Resident Engineer, Greg Colzani. He isa recognized expert in soft ground tunneling, who has been practicing CM for 30 years. He has filled key roles forsignature tunnel projects including the Willamette River CSO program in Oregon, the I-70 Hanging Lake Tunnels inColorado, and the South Bay Ocean Outfall in California. As the Construction Manager in Portland, Greg managed anintegrated client and consultant CM team to work collaboratively with the contractor during preconstruction tocomplete the design, evaluate methods, and develop project plans. This process saved millions of dollars through theintroduction of risk-reducing, innovative construction technologies to the country, including slurry TBM technology andsteel-fiber reinforced tunnel segments. Not only a tunneling specialist, Greg has CM experience with highway tunnelcontrol and ventilation systems, installation, integration, and commissioning.We are providing the added value leadership of Steve Minassian, PE, to coordinate all CM service activities. Similar toGreg, Steve has spent his career in tunneling. Over the past 25 years, he has fulfilled many diverse roles serving thetunneling industry. Steve has served as the Design Manager and Construction Manager on several high-profile, softground tunneling projects, as well as serving as the Project Manager for the Port of Miami Tunnel project, where he wastasked with leading the design-build joint venture’s design efforts for the largest-diameter TBM tunnel in the UnitedStates to date. Steve has participated actively in risk management, partnering, and dispute resolution board proceedings.Professional History Provides Greatest Assurance of SuccessThe Parsons team is currently working on or has completed work as the CM on 10 recent,complex tunnel design-build projects. We understand the differences of this role versus a traditional design-bid-buildproject. As a result, we have developed specific CM plans and processes, proven tools, and qualified personnel to managethe cost, schedule, and quality objectives of the design-build projects. Locally, our team has made a commitment to thisregion by delivering transportation solutions since 1929, including key WSDOT projects such as the SR 532 CorridorImprovements Design-Build project; the I-405 Corridor Program; and the Tacoma Narrows Bridge project. We lookforward to continuing to partner with WSDOT, and will draw on our experience with WSDOT’s procedures andregulations.
Halcrow is a premier tunnel designer and constructor, with marquee projects around the world.Their roles in major tunneling projects include design, engineering support during construction, and constructionmanagement, which gives them a complete perspective on different types of project delivery methods, including designbuild.Most importantly, both Parsons and Halcrow have design-build experience as an equity partner, so we know whatit takes to manage a project of this size.We offer an outstanding group of CM professionals who have experience working on many of the world’s largesttunneling projects, including the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, the Dubai Metro Red and Green Lines, the Al Salam StreetTunnel, and the Caldecott Tunnel Improvement Program. In addition, our team includes technical experts fromprofessional and academic backgrounds, who are considered world leaders in their fields. They will provide us with themost innovative expertise and technical advice on specialized disciplines such as settlement mitigation and hyperbaricinterventions, so that we can provide the strongest possible CM services support to WSDOT.Our individuals’ and firms’ experience alone differentiates our team from the rest. Additionally, our significant efforts aspart of the Seattle Tunneling Group, in which we prepared a full proposal, a comprehensive cost/time risk assessment,and a 30 percent design to bid on the bored tunnel project, uniquely qualifies us to assist WSDOT in managing the SR 99CM Services project. Parsons and Halcrow have developed a comprehensive understanding of the project’s risks andattributes to the community, and our experience in soft-ground, pressurized-face tunneling as both a designer and aconstructor gives us the capacity to assist WSDOT with the CM of this major project.As two top-tier design-build firms with additional strong support, the Parsons team brings an understanding of theimportance of partnership, integration, and team-building with WSDOT. We understand that the right combination ofmanagerial and technical expertise will provide the most benefit to WSDOT, while allowing us to seamlessly integratewith the project team.Combined, our tunnel CM experience, design and design-build expertise, thorough knowledge of the SR 99 Design-Buildproject, and integrated team experience with WSDOT, provides WSDOT with a uniquely qualified team to support its CMprogram and ensure successful delivery of the SR 99 Design-Build project.We thank you for the opportunity to present our local team and proposed approach to this project. Further, we confirmthat Parsons has no conflict of interest in submitting this package, and all staff members on our team are expected toavoid conflicts of interest at all times.Our single point of contact for this project is Rick Chapman, PE, who can be reached at:ParsonsAttn: Rick Chapman, Vice President, Area Manager600 University Street, Suite 700Seattle, WA 98101Phone: (206) 494-3109/Fax(206) 494-0960Email: Rick.Chapman@parsons.comWe thank you for the opportunity to submit these qualifications and look forward to working closely with you again.Sincerely,PARSONSThomas Barron, President, Parsons Transportation Group Inc.
