Introduction
Sustainable
Development
U.S. Green Building Council
The Next Step
KPRS Construction is a member of the U.S. Green
Building Council Orange County Chapter. As part
of our mission statement, KPRS is committed to “a
higher quality environment.”
The sustainability of our industry is now closely tied
to utilizing emerging technologies and materials
that embrace eco-sustainable production and
construction methods. KPRS is currently working with
subcontractors and product suppliers to make our
construction sites greener. Here are some aspects we
are working on:
LEED Accredited Professionals
KPRS has many LEED accredited professionals
currently on staff to help in the planning, designing,
and construction of projects seeking LEED
certification.
We focus on three main certifications: New
Construction, Commercial Interiors, and Core and
Shell. Each certification is rated in the following:
•
•
•
•
Certified
Silver
Gold
Platinum
Lead-Safe Certified Firm:
KPRS is an EPA certified lead-safe renovator. The EPA
launched a consumer campaign to raise awareness of
the dangers of lead paint poisoning and encourages
consumers to choose only contractors who are
Lead-Safe Certified.
Electronic Paperless Filing
Within the last year, KPRS has moved towards using
online electronic files of construction documents,
plan sets, and closeout packages. Master copies
are stored electronically, and are accessible via the
internet, reducing the amount of paper used in
the reprinting of large-scale documents. As-built
drawings are scanned after projects are completed,
backed-up using secure storage methods, and
eventually recycled.
Project Closeout Packages
Project closeout packages are delivered as interactive
CDs or DVDs, eliminating bulky binders and multiple
paper copies.
KPRS Construction Services, Inc.

the construction industry. Our mission statement
focuses on a commitment to “a higher quality
environment for an active society,” and we begin at
our corporate office and construction sites.
Each employee’s desk is furnished with a recycling
bin and paper documents are recycled daily. KPRS
recycles the following materials within the corporate
office and on project job sites:

Conceptual Estimate
Our team is proud of its success and reputation for consistently
delivering projects of the highest quality, on time and within our
Clients’ guidelines.
Our cost management system is a proprietary system developed
by Lev Rabinovich, Vice President of Preconstruction. It provides
a single source document for the total range of the project
requirements. This method provides tremendous flexibility to
accommodate specific client requirements and utilizes several
different software packages for efficient cost and document
control.
Our cost estimating team will prepare a conceptual estimate based
on programming documents and defined assumptions mutually
agreed to by the owner and the design team. We have developed a
unique approach to providing and presenting our estimates.
Our team provides a factual account of the project status,
presenting meaningful information to allow team members to make
timely decisions. Furthermore, as each document is produced in the
different phases of the design and construction document process,
a library of information is created, taking into consideration key
decisions and value added options.
The Team Approach
In providing cost management services, our team seeks to
participate as a full member with our client and consultant teams.
Each of the principal team members brings specific expertise to the
program. Through the interface of the team and integration of their
capabilities, program objectives are realized.
KPRS Construction Services, Inc.
During the early schematic phase, we will work closely with the
owner and the architect in providing cost data for all alternative
configuration schemes and will form the basis for the project
budget. During the early phases of the project, while the greatest
number of options are open, decisions can be made that have the
greatest impact on the final project costs.

This estimate will be based upon a detailed takeoff of
the final design development or preliminary drawings.
It will be prepared with sufficient detail to provide a
thorough review of the various design elements
and will facilitate changes, substitutions, or reductions
of current design should this prove necessary or
desired. This estimate will verify that increases in
project cost are either not occurring, or that they are
being considered and documented.

Construction Documents Estimate
This estimate will incorporate a detailed contract
estimate for each of the various items of work.
It will be summarized in accordance with the
procurement plan of contract packaging and will be
based on an analysis of the construction drawings
and specifications, a detailed quantity survey of the
materials required, and carefully appraised unit prices
for labor and material. It will provide the final check on
the budget and can serve as the basis of a Guaranteed
Maximum Price.
Historical Data
Construction Market/Analysis
As part of our preconstruction services, we analyze
construction market factors that impact the
construction of the facility. We will specifically analyze:
•
•
•
•
•
Current availability of skilled subcontractors
who can provide their services.
Availability of specialized craftspeople.
Projections of future construction work loads.
Local labor conditions, including the capability
of local business enterprises.
Management and financial capability, quality,
and workload of potential bidders.
Based on this market analysis and our analysis of the
overall project requirements, we will develop a list of
qualified subcontractors.
KPRS Construction Services, Inc.
Throughout the preconstruction process, our team
will evaluate the current project with historical
data from similar projects in size and scope. With
over 100 years of cumulative experience between
the principals of KPRS, we have a comprehensive
and reliable database of historical experience
to base our historical cost analysis.
Budget Control
We will initiate project cost control procedures,
including development of cost reporting. We will
continually monitor the project budget, anticipated
costs, and prepare monthly reports with the respect
to the contract cost.
Preconstruction

Technical Services
Schedule of Values
We will assist in developing a reliable Schedule of Values format.
This form will provide a basis for the payment requisitions and
provide financial safety for the client during the construction
phases of the project.
Value Engineering Studies
An important activity during the preconstruction phase is “Value
Engineering Studies.”
The value engineering process will identify areas where significant
contributions can be made to reduce costs, speed construction, and
enhance the project’s value. This will be achieved through meetings
and discussions with the client, architect, and engineers, discussing
alternatives with the specialty contractors, investigating current
market trends, extensive reporting and regular feedback to the
project team.
When appropriate, detailed reports and recommendations will
be produced so the architect and the owner can consider the
implications of the options and make proper decisions. This
documentation is one of the forms of continuity we will bring to the
project.
In conjunction with the owner and the architect, we will review the
design of the project on a continuous basis through the production
of construction documents to assure that the design is the most
cost-effective and consistent with the project goals.
In all cases, we look for possibilities to
improve quality, expedite schedules, or
optimize costs.
For the analysis of major building systems and subsystems, we,
along with the team members, will use life cycle cost analysis
and recommend those systems that most closely meet your
requirements for first cost versus life cycle cost.
KPRS Construction Services, Inc.

Construction Approach
Construction Approach
Once established, the GMP will form the basis to
proceed with the construction services. The following
outline is a brief summary of the methodology KPRS
will follow to execute a project.
During the construction phase, KPRS will provide all
management and related services, as necessary. Our
team will manage all conditions of the site work rules
and will establish and monitor safety, security, cleaning
and other conditions.
General Management and On-Site Staff
KPRS’ personnel is accustomed to dealing with the
upper management of subcontractors, whether it
is in the field or at an off-site fabrication plant. By
obtaining the commitment of the senior management
of our subcontractors, our team will ensure the client
of having its work done by the finest personnel and
having personalized attention given to the project by
each subcontractor.
Our team will establish, implement and maintain
procedures to assure coordination among the
architect, consultants, subcontractors, all local
municipal authorities, governmental agencies, utility
companies, etc., who may be involved in the project.
Our team will hold weekly job meetings with the
owner’s representatives, subcontractors, architects
and other necessary parties to discuss procedures,
progress, problems, scheduling, and open items.
Our team will assist the owner in obtaining the general
building permits and Certificates of Occupancy as
required, and will coordinate the obtaining of all legally
required permits, licenses and certificates. We will
assemble these documents from the contractors and
deliver them at the completion of the work.
KPRS will coordinate all work until final completion
and acceptance of the project by the owner, including
a comprehensive final inspection to ensure that the
materials furnished and work performance are in
accordance with the contract documents.
During the construction phase of the project, KPRS
will provide all management and related services,
KPRS Construction Services, Inc.
as necessary, to adequately supervise, monitor and
coordinate the work of all subcontractors. Our team
will manage all conditions of the site work rules and
will establish and monitor safety, security, cleaning and
other conditions.
Coordinate Testing and Inspection
KPRS will develop and enforce a quality control
system in order to ensure that the highest standards
of construction are met. Our team will develop a
checking and testing procedure to ensure that all
systems are adequately tested and balanced prior to
their acceptance.
Our team will coordinate all testing, as required by
the technical sections of the specifications, and as
required by the building code. Our team will keep an
accurate record of all tests, inspections conducted and
test reports.
Our team will coordinate the services of professional
engineers, engineer-of-record and the architect, as
required by the building codes, for work, if any, that
would be performed for the owner directly.
Coordinate Shop Drawings Submissions
KPRS will receive and review for compliance with
the contract documents all shop drawings, materials
and other items submitted by the subcontractors.
Requests for approval from subcontractors, delivery
schedules, material lists, shop drawings, samples, plus
more, will be commented upon and submitted to the
architect for concurring approval.
Construction
Services
Construction Approach
Approvals of technical adequacy of shop drawings and samples will
remain the duty of the architect.KPRS will oversee the submission
of all shop drawings, composite shop and coordination drawings,
brochures and material samples, and instruct the subcontractors
that submission shall comply with project requirements.
Proactive Scheduling
Comprehensive Safety Program
At KPRS, we strive to great lengths to produce an initial target
schedule incorporating requirements from all parties including:
owners, designers, contractors, suppliers and end users.
KPRS will review the safety program developed by each
subcontractor and will prepare and submit to the owner a
recommended comprehensive Safety Program, which complies
with the requirements of Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA),
as amended. During construction, our team will monitor compliance
by each subcontractor with its contractual safety requirements, and
in collaboration with the project personnel charged with monitoring
fire and safety regulations, will correct any deficiencies.
Labor and Community Relations
KPRS will make recommendations, as necessary, for the
development and administration of an effective labor and
community relations program for the project and for avoidance of
labor disputes during construction.
Achieving predictable project outcomes is a process that depends
on current and accurate information, communication, and
teamwork.
This establishes the baseline schedule that serves as a measuring
point for the entire project.
By focusing on the initial scheduling plan we have essentially
minimized the potential problems that will slow down the project.
We use Primavera, the most comprehensive scheduling program
available, as our scheduling software.
The Project Team will review the 14 day look-ahead
schedules weekly during the subcontractor’s and owner’s
coordination meetings. The schedule will be used as a tool to discuss
deliveries and installation sequences. Any problems or issues will be
addressed accordingly and the schedule will be adjusted to reflect
the changes, if necessary.
The Project Team will update the current schedule and review
it against the baseline schedule to identify potential conflicts or
impacts due to the latest adjustments. The schedule will then be
discussed with the owner and subcontractors in order to review
possible solutions to minimizing impacts and methods of taking
proactive steps necessary to ensure that the project will be delivered
on time and on budget.

Roof Access Sign-In Sheet
Our adoption of Roof Access controls is another direct
result of past experience. No subcontractor is permitted
access to the roof of any KPRS jobsite project without first
attending a “toolbox” safety talk and then filling out the
Roof Access Sign-In Sheet.
KPRS University
SAFETY – Safety is an integral part of our corporate
culture—KPRS has assembled a detailed safety
program to ensure thorough direction for the
duration of the project. Elements of the program
include:
One of the ways that KPRS distinguishes itself from its
competition is through our regular training program,
KPRS University. This 46-course program brings our field
superintendents, project engineers, assistant project
managers and office staff together in a twice-monthly
format in the corporate office to receive training in the
latest means and methods and best practices for our
industry.
