Kick-off Meeting:
The Kick-off Meeting is between attendees representing the tenant and PA prior to
commencement of the TAA design phase. The goal of the Kick-off Meeting is to assist the tenant’s
project planning efforts and to set clear expectations for the process, including a better
understanding of each party’s role or responsibilities. The tenant must have a project
determination from the Tenant Coordinator prior to the scheduling of the Kick-off Meeting. A Kick-
off Meeting is required for all TCAP projects.
Required Attendees:
Tenant representative(s) and the A/EOR who will be responsible for assembling and submitting
the contract documents must attend the Kick-off Meeting. If the tenant has hired more than one
design consultant, all A/E consultants are encouraged to attend. Construction team members (if
selected) can also participate.
The Tenant Coordinator will also invite other PA staff based on the scope of the project.
Deliverables:
The Kick-off Meeting delivers all requirements and rules for the Tenant Construction and
Alteration
Process, helps
the
tenant
to
understand
what
is
needed for
the
project
to
be successful, and provides an opportunity to discuss key issues affecting the design review
and construction schedule (e.g., proposed packaging of contract document submittals for large
projects, need for preliminary submittals, security, environmental permits, safety, external agency
reviews, etc.). The tenant will be able to ask questions, gain confidence in how to proceed,
set expectations, and improve their ability to plan and budget activities required to comply with
the process.
