Role:
Document Control Management, Technical Editing, and Communications
Project overview:
This Sound Transit 3 (ST3) Representative Project builds nearly 12 miles of new light rail connecting West Seattle to Downtown Seattle and north to the Ballard neighborhood.
Skills demonstrated:
Our significant onsite experience working on the Sound Transit East Link Final Design Project positioned us to provide immediate value when starting on the West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions project. With full understanding of Sound Transit’s policies and procedures, we orchestrated an efficient and seamless set up of the SharePoint site, including communication and training of protocols for document management and version control to the consultant team.
Tracked and monitored all submittals, technical reports, document control quality audits, and client deliverables. Compiled the monthly project progress reports for invoicing, developed and implemented the project Document Control Plan, Writing Style Guide, and the Technical Impact Reports template. At Sound Transit’s request, we also conducted numerous training programs for project consultants and stakeholders to build understanding of the deliverable process and record management protocol.
Since the environmental submittals require extensive reviews by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the role of the Document Control Manager is to ensure deliverables are submitted expediently and have undergone extensive quality reviews. To this end, we collaborated with the Project Manager and Discipline Task Leads to verify that all deliverables met the required project guidelines while maintaining a high standard of submittals.
Milestones:
Sound Transit performed 2 successful document control audits of the project. The agency found our project database to be exemplary in the field of document control and have used it as a standard of excellence when setting up other project sites.
