Early DB Partnership: Vault Delivery Certainty (45 chars)

Generated from prompt:

Create a bold, persuasive 6-slide pitch presentation for DFW Airport leadership from Royal, focused on early design-build (DB) or EPC engagement for the new Vault project. Emphasize lessons learned from the Northeast Vault and highlight how early involvement improves schedule, cost certainty, and quality. Include visuals comparing Hard Bid vs. Design-Build timelines. Slide 1: Title – “Building Certainty Through Early Partnership” Subtitle: Royal’s Proven Approach to Delivering Schedule, Cost, and Quality Certainty. Slide 2: Opportunity Overview - Context: New Vault project similar to the Northeast Vault. - Challenge: Scope not yet defined; needs to be completed before RWY (End of 2027) and Terminal F (Finish May 2027). - Objective: Demonstrate the value of early Royal involvement. Slide 3: Lessons Learned – Northeast Vault - Late involvement caused feeder/conduit rework, redesigns, and costly changes. - Field investigation delays caused $2M in change orders. - Message: Early field investigation prevents design overlap and rework. Slide 4: Schedule Comparison – Hard Bid vs. Design-Build Include bullet points or visual timeline: **Hard Bid Path:** - Q4 2026 – Bid timeline - Q1 2027 – Bid & contract award - Q2 2027 – Procurement submittals - 52-week gear lead time → Gear arrives Q2 2028 - Finish timeline → Q4 2028 **Design-Build Path:** - Q1 2026 – Design start, Royal early engagement - Q2 2026 – 50–70% design complete + field investigation - Q3 2026 – Procurement & submittals - Q3 2027 – Gear delivered (52-week lead) - Q4 2027 – Installation & commissioning complete Slide 5: Early Engagement Advantages - Avoid $2M+ in change orders from previous job. - Concurrent design + field verification = reduced rework. - Control schedule, manage cost certainty. - Avoid missing duct bank and ALCMS pathway infrastructure. - Minimize PMCM paperwork overload. Slide 6: The Royal Difference – Partnership for Certainty - Proven DB & GC experience (DFW Cable Replacement, NE Vault) - Early engagement delivers value through schedule compression and reduced risk. - Call to action: Partner early to ensure on-time delivery before RWY and Terminal F deadlines.

6-slide pitch to DFW leadership urging early Royal DB/EPC for New Vault. Highlights NE Vault lessons ($2M changes from late involvement), Hard Bid vs. DB timeline (1-yr faster), and benefits: schedule

Slide 2 - Opportunity Overview

The New Vault opportunity mirrors the successful Northeast Vault. It faces challenges with undefined scope needing completion before RWY (end 2027) and Terminal F (May 2027), aiming to prove value in early Royal DB/EPC involvement.

Opportunity Overview

  • New Vault mirrors successful Northeast Vault.
  • Challenge: Undefined scope; finish before RWY (end 2027) & Terminal F (May 2027).
  • Objective: Prove value of early Royal DB/EPC involvement.

Slide 3 - Lessons Learned – Northeast Vault

Late involvement and delayed field investigations in the Northeast Vault project caused feeder/conduit rework, costly redesigns, and $2M in change orders. Early field work and proactive engagement prevent design overlaps, rework, and ensure schedule and cost certainty.

Lessons Learned – Northeast Vault

  • Late involvement triggered feeder/conduit rework and costly redesigns.
  • Delayed field investigations drove $2M in change orders.
  • Early field work eliminates design overlaps and rework.
  • Proactive engagement ensures schedule and cost certainty.

Slide 4 - Schedule Comparison: Hard Bid vs. Design-Build

The slide compares Hard Bid (bid Q4 2026, gear Q2 2028, finish Q4 2028) versus Design-Build (design Q1 2026, gear Q3 2027, finish Q4 2027) schedules. Hard Bid misses RWY/Terminal F deadlines, while Design-Build meets them on time.
