Walter E Hall Park is a well-established park with a long history in the community. Surrounded by dense housing, <br />there is high demand for public space of this size and character to meet the diverse recreational needs of the <br />growing community. The City’s Park Recreation and Open Space Plan (PROS) plan outlines a vision to better serve <br />the community with multi-modal trails that create safe and accessible opportunities to link the community with <br />their park and their desired program opportunity or activity. Our role is to help bring this vision to life. We know how <br />important it is to tailor park programs to the constituencies they serve, and see many opportunities for this project to <br />meet the changing needs of the neighborhood. <br />We believe achieving a successful project is only possible when we can deliver it on schedule and on budget while <br />also building a strong, collaborative relationship with the City. <br />Collaboration <br />A strong working relationship built on trust and respect is foundational to the success of your project. We’ve built <br />our reputation through dedicated, client and community-focused service, with transparent processes that are <br />well-managed and take the guesswork out of planning milestones, task coordination, budget, and schedules. <br />Communication is key to our success and carries through our entire process. <br />On Schedule <br />We have the capacity to meet your project requirements. Our project team leads a process that builds on the micro <br />scale while keeping the big picture in mind, with an eye toward shepherding your project beyond conceptual design, <br />and into further design development, construction, and, eventually, ribbon cutting. <br />On Budget <br />One way we assess your project is by how closely we are meeting your financial goals. Project tracking software <br />supports weekly budget analysis, alongside in-person check-ins to ensure the project budget and schedule are <br />aligned with the contract. Real-world experience and close relationships with contractors means we’re able to <br />provide order-of-magnitude pricing at all phases of the project. We regularly recalibrate our estimates by reviewing <br />current public bid results and can propose quality and economy-based changes based on your goals. <br />A. Availability <br />Our team is deeply rooted in the Puget Sound region, with locations in Seattle, Bellevue, Bothell, Edmonds, and <br />Snohomish. We are available per the denoted design period in the Request for Qualifications. <br />B. Project Approach <br />Site Analysis <br />We compile existing documentation like plans, surveys, GIS data, aerial photos, and historical data, sharing <br />information across the team to facilitate collaborative problem solving. Our approach includes technical expertise <br />from our entire consultant team to ensure designs are technically feasible and well-coordinated. This results in <br />seamless, elegant, and regulatory-compliant design solutions from the beginning, allowing for more opportunities to <br />focus on the goals and vision of the community. <br />2.
