This conference establishes the limits of Airport Improvement Program (AIP) participation. A predesign conference is generally held for all projects. Hold the predesign conference prior to formally establishing the scope of services for the consultant.  This predesign conference agenda is a supplement to Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5370-12, Quality Management for Federally Funded Airport Construction Projects, current version.\nThe magnitude and complexity of the project will be a factor in who will attend the predesign conference. In general, the airport sponsor, their engineering consultant, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airports District Office (ADO) project manager will attend the predesign conference. Other attendees that may be invited include FAA Air Traffic Organization (NAS Planning Team, Technical Operations [Tech Ops], Engineering Services, Flight Procedures Team [FPT], Runway Safety), FAA Airport Certification Inspector (for Part 139 certificated airports), FAA ADO Planner, FAA ADO Environmental Specialist, and airport operations personnel.\nGUIDANCE:\nThe following guidance should be used for pre-design conferences on AIP development and equipment projects in the Northwest Mountain Region.\nThe content is intended to provide an opportunity to talk about major items that could drive the scope/schedule/budget.\nThis discussion is intended to include design and construction (where applicable).\nThe outline is developed around traditional design-bid-build project delivery but should be tailored to your specific project; much of the content remains relevant no matter what project delivery method is used. Note that due to project timelines related to the coordination aspects suggested in this guidance, action may be required prior to the development project design beginning and the official predesign meeting occurring.  Long lead-time issues are highlighted in bold in the document to call the reader’s attention to them.\nSpecial Note:  To access the most current Regional Guidance, please visit the \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.faa.gov/airports/northwest_mountain/sponsor_guide/\" \u0014ANM Sponsor Guide\u0015 website: \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.faa.gov/airports/northwest_mountain/sponsor_guide\" \u0014https://www.faa.gov/airports/northwest_mountain/sponsor_guide\u0015.\nAGENDA:\nThis should include, but is not limited to, the following sections as needed: \u000bGrant\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ProjectOverview\" \u0014Project Overview\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"Funding\" \u0014Funding\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ConsultantFees\" \u0014Consultant Procurement\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"GrantApplication\" \u0014Grant Application\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"DisadvantagedBusinessEnterprise\" \u0014Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE)\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ProjectSchedule\" \u0014Project Schedule\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ProjectCloseoutRequirements\" \u0014Project Closeout Requirements\u0015\nDesign Phase – Development Project\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ApplicableGuidance\" \u0014Applicable Guidance\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"FAAProjectCoordination\" \u0014FAA Project Coordination\u0015 within Obstruction Evaluation/Airport Airspace Analysis (OE/AAA)\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"AirportsDivisionsSafetyAssesmentProcess\" \u0014FAA Airports Division Safety Assessment Process\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"AGIS\" \u0014AGIS Survey Requirements\u0015 (AC 150/5300-16/17/18, current versions)\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"IFP\" \u0014Instrument Flight Procedures (IFP)\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"NAVAIDS\" \u0014Navigational Aids (NAVAIDS)\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"RAS\" \u0014Reimbursable Agreements (RAs)\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"FlightInspection\" \u0014Flight Inspection\u0015 of Air Navigation Services\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"DesignPhaseSpecifics\" \u0014Design Phase Specifics\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"ProjectCloseout\" \u0014Project Closeout for Design-Only Grants\u0015\nOther\nBidding Phase – Development Project\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"BPDPApplicableGuidance\" \u0014Applicable Guidance\u0015\n\u0013","cbCaibh0I82Bap4b","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibh0I82Bap4b","docx",164714,22,"English","# Background\n# Guidance\n# Agenda\n## Grant\n## Design Phase – Development Project\n## Bidding Phase – Development Project\n## Construction Phase – Development Project\n## Design and Bidding – Equipment Project","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of a predesign conference for AIP projects?\",\"answer\":\"It provides a forum to discuss issues affecting acceptable design parameters, environmental considerations, airport safety, project coordination, and construction phasing, and it establishes the limits of AIP participation before the consultant scope is formally set.\"},{\"question\":\"Who typically attends the predesign conference?\",\"answer\":\"In general, the airport sponsor, their engineering consultant, and the FAA Airports District Office (ADO) project manager attend.
