Review and Analysis of the Peak Performance Process 

1a. Architect

• Design - The Architect provides the design process through which their client can materialize their vision. A rough draft (Bid) set of drawings are sent to the General Contractor, who distributes them to Subcontactors for bidding and then many contracts will be signed before construction can start.
• Changes - After the ribbon is cut, Owner makes an endless list of changes and the Architect creates new detailed drawing revisions. As a general rule Sucontractors have seven (7) days from time notified to submit the extra costs incurred by these revisons, which is called 'Contract Change Order Request'. These CCOR's can typically take up to three (3) to four (4) weeks to be approved by the Architect via the General Contractor.
• Request For Information - When the set of plans do not provide enough detail to complete a specific task, it is the Subcontractors responsibility to issued a RFI for greater clarity. Once the Architect or General respond with proper direction, it is the obligation of the Subcontractor to determine the added cost and impact to the project schedule within seven days of receiving the directive. Otherwise the GC assumes there is no cost and no impact.
