This phase begins with the award of the project construction contracts and continues until the closeout document review work is complete. RPMI performs the following tasks:
Review and approval of shop drawings, reaction drawings, requests for substitutions, samples, manufacturer's specifications and catalogue cuts, Contractors pay requests.
Provide technical observations of construction as required to review that the work is in general compliance with the contract documents.
Throughout the construction phase of the projects, the key members of the RPMI Design Team will provide consultation and advice to the Owner on a continuous basis.
In the event any alteration to the construction contract becomes necessary, due to changed conditions at or to the work site, change orders and supplemental agreements will be prepared on behalf of the Owner by RPMI.
RPMI will review laboratory, shop and mill reports as well as attending equipment start-up testing to assure compliance with specifications.
 A pre-final inspection will be conducted to determine if a Certificate of Substantial Completion is warranted. At that time a punch list will be prepared for work items still required to complete the project.
 Review maintenance and operating manuals submitted by the Contractor for all major maintenance and servicing equipment.
 Review the set of "As-Built" drawings as submitted by the Contractor for the completed project indicating field changes.
