Visit the work in progress no Tess than four times to oversee the progress. 11. Direct site meetings. 12. Issue clarifications of contract documents. 13. Review Contractor pay requests. 14. Prepare punch list near completion of the work. Budget Impact: The fee that Walker Consultants proposed for the above listed scope of work amounts to $24,000, with a reimbursable budget of not to exceed $5,250.
