PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project was the replacement of the entire mechanical system in a
fully occupied three-story skilled nursing facility, a seven-story independent living facility and a
single-story assisted living facility all located on the Bonell Good Samaritan Campus in Greeley. The
new HVAC system is a four-pipe system consisting of air-cooled chiller, high efficiency boilers,
circulating pumps, piping and terminal fan coil units. Corridor ceilings were also removed and
replaced to allow for the installation of new HVAC piping and electrical conduits. Miscellaneous
patching and repairs to damaged surfaces were done in each room after the installation of the new
HVAC system.
The campus was at full capacity during construction and there was no space to relocate residents for
extended periods of time. We worked closely with Belford Waktins, the Good Samaritan Society,
and the Bonell staff members during preconstruction and construction to coordinate construction
activities in order to minimize disruptions to residents and staff. During the day, we moved a
limited number of residents out of their rooms but made sure that they were able to return to their
rooms every evening.

CONTRACT TIME AT BID: September 2012
ACTUAL COMPLETION DATE: September 2012
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project was the exterior modernization of CSU’s Corbett Hall that
was originally built in 1960 and is CSU's largest residence hall, housing 900 students. The
renovation included a new brick façade, energy-efficient windows and a gabled roof. The new
façade emphasizes curb appeal outside the building by replacing the dated and worn green tiles with
brick that better matches the architectural style on campus.
The exterior work improved the energy efficiency of the exterior walls by 300 percent with the
addition of insulated foam behind the brick and new, energy-efficient windows that lower utility
costs and increase the thermal comfort of residents. The new windows are double pane with a high
performance low e-coating, making them 400 percent more efficient than the original windows that
were installed in 1962. Sustainable efforts for the project also included recycling the aluminum on
the old windows and utilizing local brick made in Pueblo, Colorado.
During construction CSU added a new temporary dinning facility to our scope. T-Dex is a unique,
custom-built, movable dining center for students. The 2,112 square foot, wood framed eatery has a
full commercial kitchen and an outside deck for eating. Some design elements of the unit included
the use of corrugated sheet metal and bright colors, which were part of trying to create a fun, casual
space. The location also features exposed plywood ceilings and corrugated sheet metal counters.

The new library is an example of a 21st Century public library. The facility offers additional space for
library materials, meeting rooms for the public, interactive areas for children, a specially-equipped
section for teens, a room focusing on local history and an adult fireside reading area. A Business
Center and supporting equipment were included in the project to help patrons with job searches,
provide business reference materials and host small meetings.
Public computing areas were greatly expanded and enhanced, including computer training space and
a room for making electronic media. Self-checkout stations will speed up the borrowing of materials
and an automatic book return system will included to return materials to the display shelving. This
project achieved LEED® NC – Gold Rating.

countertops, and appliances. Also included is a safety shutoff gas connection that will turn off the
kitchen gas supply when a response call is activated.
CLAIMS: In May 2012, Dohn Construction, Inc. (DCI) as well as the Windsor-Severance Fire
District were named defendants in a Complaint by a materials supplier on this project. The supplier
had provided materials to a material supplier contracted by DCI. DCI had previously paid their
contracted material supplier and had no knowledge of the sub-tier supplier. The District had
advertised the Final Settlement Notice for all claims on the project and stipulated that final
settlement would be December 26, 2011. In September, 2012, the Court dismissed two of the three
claims and rejected the remaining claim. The Court will allow the Plaintiff to amend the remaining
claim if the Plaintiff wishes to continue the suit.
PROJECT BUDGET AND COST CONTROL
PROJECT BUDGET AND COST CONTROL
Dohn Construction uses many tools to manage costs; the primary ones are Viewpoint, a fully
integrated project management and accounting software, Timberline Estimating Software and On-Screen
Take-Off. The key to good cost management is to start with a good estimate and to utilize quality
subcontractors and vendors. Dohn Construction begins this process with a thorough
prequalification of potential subcontractors. We review this information as well as the company’s
financial statements and current workload. References will also be called to verify the quality of the
subcontractor’s work. John Rehmer, Brian Blake and Todd Annand will perform a detail scope
review with all bidding subcontractors to verify that all bids are complete and match the plans and
specifications. The estimating team, using on screen take-off software, will complete many detailed
take-offs. These take-offs are used for material pricing and subcontractor scope verification. Once
all of the subcontractor’s bids have been analyzed, the low bidders are asked to provide a schedule
for their work to determine if it will fit into the overall timeline. If necessary a commitment for
more manpower or a different subcontractor will have to be used to fit the schedule.
VALUE MANAGEMENT
Value Management is a big part of the preconstruction services we offer. Value management is
often confused with cost reduction. The distinction, however, is very important. Value
management is a systematic process used by the team with multiple disciplines to improve
the value of a project through the analysis of its functions. Cost reduction, on the other hand,
only considers the first set of costs (i.e. construction costs vs. lifecycle costs). Because of this, we
dedicate the extra time and resources to value management.
Value management can be applied during any stage of a project’s development cycle, although we
feel the greatest benefit and resource savings are typically achieved early in the development during
the conceptual stages. Early application helps to get the project started in the right direction, and
repeated analysis help to refine the project’s direction based on new or changing information. We
carefully evaluate every detail of a project plan, from civil engineering drawings to the interior
finishes to ensure our client receives the best possible value. These methodologies are applied more
than once during the life of the project, ensuring continued quality, cost analysis, and creativity.
The main components of our value management program are:
Identification of areas of review. Each
team member critically examines the design
drawings and specifications. The ideas
formulated during this time focus on areas of
the design that could take advantage of new
products or processes, different materials,
simplified systems or revised details
Brainstorming session. Team members
from multiple disciplines collaborate on ideas
and thoughts. The goal is to put as many
options as possible on the table. The team
should be inspired by others’ thoughts and
may come up with unique additional ideas
due to the context of the discussion.
Analysis of each recommendation. The team sets up criteria to evaluate each idea. The
alternatives discussed in the brainstorming sessions are tested against the criteria. Once the
proposal has merit based on the functional requirements, then costing analysis is applied to
the components.
Quality analysis. By evaluating the overall project as well as the individual aspects, the
team is able to identify the level of quality required for the project. Materials and assembly
methods must be considered and reviewed to meet the expectations of the project.
Alternatives are presented that may or may not reduce the cost.
Other considerations that take place in all of
these sessions include lifecycle analysis,
constructability and sustainable impact. This
process and experience promotes a teamwork
environment and develops a sense of enthusiasm
towards building a better, more cost effective
overall project.
COMMUNICATION
Open and honest communication from all
parties is the key to the success on any
construction project. Dohn Construction
believes in giving our customers fully disclosure
and accounting for all costs on their jobs. Our
records, subcontractor bids, and detailed
accounting systems are always open to the
customer. Most builders do not give this information to their customers.

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCING AND SCHEDULING
CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCING AND SCHEDULING
Microsoft Project is used to create and graphically illustrate all schedules and phasing plans. The field
operation manager, Brett Brown, project manager, John Rehmer, and superintendent, Bob Adleman
or Nate Brock, prepares and manages the overall project schedule. A very detailed critical path
schedule is prepared using input from the major subcontractors. They will also collaborate with
Belford Waktins and Poudre Fire Authority to include all activities that must be achieved in order to
allow the facility to function without interruption to its daily operations if need be.
During construction, Bob/Nate will prepare a three-week lookout schedule each week using
information contained in the overall schedule; after conducting weekly foreman meeting with the
subcontractors. These three-week schedules automatically update the overall project schedule.
Brett, John and Bob/Nate meet weekly to review three-week schedules as well as the overall project
schedule to make sure the project stays on track. These schedules are both reviewed at the weekly
owner, architect and contractor (OAC) meeting.
Dohn Construction has extensive experience working on projects that have fast tracked schedules.
During the past two summers, we have completed several projects on the Colorado State University
campus that required fast tracked schedules and hard deadlines due to students returning for the fall
semester.

QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL
QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL
The concept of customer satisfaction goes beyond just the idea of providing an “acceptable”
product to the owner. We view everyone involved with the building process, from designers to
subcontractors and employees, as a team. By instilling an atmosphere of ownership and pride, we
are able to create the environment that encourages cooperation and innovation promoting a high
level of craftsmanship.
Quality assurance begins with a thorough review of all the construction documents at the onset of a
project. This gives the team a chance to ask questions and get clarifications from the design team.
Our project manager will coordinate preconstruction and will make inquiries from major
subcontractors to ensure constructability. Throughout the construction process, the field
superintendent continuously monitors quality control. We use the following measures ensure a
quality project.
Constructability Review
Meetings are held with design team,
owner, field operations manager,
project manager, and superintendent to
review plans looking for product
compatibility, missing details,
problematic details, and opportunities
for improvement.
Pre-Qualifying Sub-Contractors
All subcontractors are required to
complete the AIA A305 Contractor’s
Qualification Statement. Dohn
Construction will review this document as well as the company’s financial statements and
current workload. Dohn will then verify the quality of the subcontractors work by calling on
references.
Shop Drawings Review and Coordination
Dohn Construction will create a submittal log and schedule based on the construction
documents. We use the shop drawings and product information to look for compatibility of
materials, continuity of finishes, and potential issues. Dohn Construction will conduct an in-
house review of submittals and compare these against the construction documents, plans
and specifications.
Mock Up’s
This is a good opportunity to review product interfaces and continuity. Not only is this is
important for exterior items like the flashings, drainage plains and air barriers, but also for
ensuring interior products and finishes are well thought out and compatible with each other.
Pre-installation Meetings
For all interior and exterior finishes it is important that we have a clear understanding of
what needs to happen, as well as identifying our expectations. We require that the actual
installer be present for the meeting not just their foreman. The quality and finish of the
substrate are also reviewed for the installer to make sure we have the right product in the
correct condition for them to do their job properly. This is also a good time to review how
to safely perform the work.
Cover up Inspections
Prior to covering up anything we inspect the installation to make sure the directives that
were set forth in the pre-installation conference were carried out.
Inspection Check Lists
We utilize a variety of checklists to make sure everything is being thought of and meets our
standards of quality. These lists are constantly updated as we encounter new problems or
building techniques change.
Post-installation Review
Review what worked well and what did not for future projects benefit.
Punch Lists
It is the goal of Dohn Construction to minimize the punch list process as much as possible.
To achieve this, we pre-punch all of our jobs. The superintendent and project manager walk
each area and create a list of items needing attention. This list is distributed to all of the
subcontractors and is posted on the door to a room or area. The posted list includes the
item needing corrected, who is expected to correct it and a location for the corrector to sign
off when the correction has been made. Once the pre-punch list items have been addressed
Dohn Construction will walk the rooms with the owner and architect to prepare the final
punch list. By pre-punching and correcting the items before the OAC meeting, we
maximize the efficiency of the punch list process and minimize the amount of time it takes
to complete the job after Substantial Completion has been achieved.
Owner Trainings
It is important that an owner is properly trained on how to use the newly installed
equipment. Dohn Construction will schedule owner trainings based on the owner and
facility manager schedules. We encourage training on all aspects of each system and provide
video recording of the trainings, when requested, for later reference.
System Commissioning
There are varying levels of commission needed depending on the project sophistication. At
a minimum, a though walkthrough with the designing engineers and the installers will be
conducted to make sure that the integrity of the design. The use of third party
commissioners to verify, test and balance the system and work them in a variety of ways to
ensure the job is done properly is encouraged.
11-Month Walk Through
A walkthrough 11 months after the date that Substantial Completion was achieved is
encouraged on all projects. Dohn Construction will make a detailed list of items needing
attention and promptly get them resolved.
As Built Drawings
As built updates on all of our projects are done weekly. Superintendents are responsible for
ensuring that subcontractors are keeping proper as built drawings. Dohn Construction
understands the importance of providing owners with accurate and detailed as built drawings
for reference in the future. The specification book is also updated to indicate brand and type
of materials used for all the divisions of work.
Operation & Maintenance Manuals
Dohn Construction starts the O&M manuals
process during the submittal process to
ensure that a complete and comprehensive
O&M book can be turned over to the owner
at the time of substantial completion.
Warranty Calls
Dohn tracks all callbacks by superintendent,
project manager, subcontractor, and building
type to identify weak links in our system and
areas that need special attention. All of the
callbacks are run through the field operations
manager to ensure that the callbacks we do get are responded to quickly and resolved.
Continuous improvement means making every job better than the last one. The attitude of
continuously improvement can be seen at every level in our company – from laborers on the job to
upper levels of management. Quality is everyone’s responsibility and pride is everyone’s reward.

EXPERIENCE WITH SUSTAINABLE DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
Sustainability in the construction industry is here to stay and at Dohn we’re proud to be a part of the
next generation of building - green. We have been the contractor on numerous sustainable building
projects and our green building resume grows every day. Dohn Construction has become a clear
choice as a contractor with the right experience to get the “built green” job done right.
Dohn Construction, Inc. is a founding member of the USGBC of Northern Colorado and has been
involved in a number of marquee green building projects that utilize the U.S. Green Building
Council LEED® rating system. We are very familiar with the newly implemented City of Fort
Collins Green Codes, if fact, Doug Dohn sat on the committee that created the guidelines for the
new codes. Our staff has attended the training classes provided by the City, these classes included:
Residential Building Envelope, Commercial Building Commissioning, Residential Mechanical
Systems Design, Commercial Building Envelope, Fenestration Installation, and Residential
Mechanical Systems Testing.
Efforts are made to include green building techniques in all of our projects. Jobsite recycling and
waste diversions are standard practices on all renovation projects. Seven Generations Office Park,
built by Dohn in 2008, achieved a 90% landfill diversion rate. Thus, over 119 TONS of materials
were diverted from landfill.
Working directly with our customers to help manage
the LEED documentation process and to recommend
the proper rating system allows our clients the ability to
achieve the highest certification level possible and lower
operating costs once the project is complete. Our in-
house LEED Accredited Professionals are here to
provide the expertise needed to ensure a successful
LEED project. Dohn’s LEED resume includes the
platinum rated Seven Generations Office Park and
Bethke Elementary School in Timnath, CO which is
the first in the nation to achieve the LEED for Schools Gold rating. Attached is a list of our LEED
projects.
SPECIFIC GREEN PROJECT COMPONENTS
Rocky Mountain Innovation Initiative
A 30,000 square foot office building that was
completed in December, 2010. The building is LEED
Platinum rated. The building was a multi-tenant office
building with over eighty leasable units. The building
incorporated high efficiency building envelope systems
as well as energy efficient mechanical systems and solar
photovoltaic panels. The solar panel system generates
over 30 KW of power, which contributes 27% of the
total annual energy used by the building. Over 20% of
the building's materials were manufactured and
extracted locally and over 30% of the building's
materials came from recycled content; as defined by
LEED. During the project, 80% of construction debris was diverted form the landfill. The building
envelope consisted of rigid insulation sheathing as well as spray-foam insulation on the interior wall
cavities which formed the building's air barrier. Over half of the wood use on the project was FSC
certified, which qualifies for one point under the LEED rating system.
Brendle Group
212 West Mulberry is an office building that received LEED platinum certification. The project is an
office building that incorporated a high efficient building envelope system with use of efficient
mechanical systems and solar photovoltaic panels. The project used 3 different types of solar panels
that were integrated into one system. The building used a tank less water heater and air source heat
pumps. This building incorporated all low-e glass for glazing and fiberglass windows for efficiency.
All of the adhesives and glues used on the project were low VOC to reduce chemical off gassing
within the space.
Colorado State University Rockwell Hall
A 50,000 square foot higher education building on the
campus of Colorado State University. This project is
LEED gold certified. The project included materials
that were extracted and manufactured locally for over
20% of the materials on site. The project also had over
20% of the material were made form recycled content.
The building used one air handler unit to feed the entire
building and was fed from the campus' central steam
power plant. All of the plumbing fixtures were low-flow
and use much less water than conventional plumbing
fixtures. All of the adhesives and glues used on the
project were low VOC to reduce chemical off gassing
within the space. Over half of the wood use don the
project was FSC certified, which qualifies for one point
under the LEED rating system.
Seven Generations
A 10,000 square foot office core and shell building. The project was the first LEED Platinum
certified building in Northern Colorado. The building included solar photovoltaic panels on the roof
and a under floor air distribution system to feed the building. The raised floor panels were all re-
used from a local source. Over 75% of the construction waste was diverted from the landfill. The
building achieved the credit "buildings that teach" for all of it's press and education outreach it had
on the Northern Colorado community.
Bethke Elementary School
The first LEED for Schools in the country. It was certified in 2008 just after LEED for Schools
became a LEED rating system. It achieved a certification level of Gold and was made of over 20%
regional materials. The materials used in the project were also made of over 20% recycled content.
The building also included native vegetation landscaping and a pervious parking lot. All of the
plumbing fixtures were low-flow and use much less water than conventional plumbing fixtures. The
building's envelope system was very efficient and included the use of a roll-on moisture and vapor
barrier, which was new technology at the time.
The Children’s Village
This children's botanical garden located in Cheyenne, Wyoming was one of the first LEED Platinum
certified buildings in Wyoming. The building was a remodel of an existing pole barn and
incorporated a lot of locally produced materials and re-used materials. The building's education and
outreach contribution tot he public has awarded the building with the LEED credit of "Buildings
That Teach".
Poudre Valley Medical Fitness Center
A commercial interior that received the LEED CI
Certified rating. The interior space is located within the
Marina Plaza Medical Center in Windsor, Colorado. The
Core and Shell building is also LEED Silver certified. The
interior space of the boiling was constructed with
materials that contain over 10% recycled content. All of
the adhesives and glues used on the project were low
VOC to reduce chemical off-gassing within the space.
Over half of the wood use don the project was FSC
certified, which qualifies for one point under the LEED
rating system.
ENERGY REDUCTION SYSTEMS
Dohn Construction, Inc.
During the summer of 2010, Dohn Construction took advantage of the “Recharge Colorado
Renewable Energy Rebate Program” and installed a 5.4 kW Ballasted Roof Mount, grid-tie
Photovoltaic System on its office building located in Fort Collins, Colorado.
Dohn Residence
During the summer of 2010, Doug and Connie Dohn took advantage of the “Xcel Energy Rebate
Program” and installed a 5 kW roof mounted Photovoltaic System on their private residence.
Good Samaritan Village, Simla
The Good Samaritan Society's facility in Simla, Colorado is an assisted living/nursing center, which
has a vertical loop field for a complete geothermal system to replace the building's current LP boiler
system. Can-America Drilling provided a vertical loop field consisting of 18 vertical wells to a depth
of 400'. The geothermal field provides a complete mechanical system for the 12,000 SF building.
The 30 tons of heating and cooling load for the building includes 37 water source heat pumps being
fed by two 45gpm pumps connected to the vertical loop field. The previous domestic water system
was run off of the boilers. This system was replaced by two 200,000 btu tank less water heaters
connected to the existing piping for the building. Dohn Construction completed this project in July
of 2011.
Larimer County Solid Waste
At Larimer County Solid Waste Dohn Construction installed a 3-zone horizontal loop geothermal
system. The system was made from 2" HDPE piping and was done with 24" loops. This
geothermal system served a 2,500 SF building.
Poudre Valley Medical Fitness Center – LEED® CS Silver
Private Residences (Three)
Dohn Construction has installed three separate geothermal systems that have utilized a coiled loop
in an excavated horizontal field that feed ground source heat pumps inside the building. Each of the
systems are the primary mechanical system for the homes. All three of the systems were provided as
design build through Dohn Construction, Inc. and Air Comfort, Inc.
Windsor Police Station
Dohn Construction installed a vertical loop
field that included 18 vertical boreholes that
were 300 feet deep, spaced 25 feet apart.
Rocky Mountain Geothermal was the
contractor that installed this geothermal
field with Lind's Plumbing hooking up the
system inside the building. This 3-zone
system fed the mechanical system for a
19,960 SF police station.
The Windsor Police Department took
advantage of the “Xcel Energy Rebate
Program” and we installed a 10 kW roof
mounted Photovoltaic System on their new
building.

PARTNERING EXPERIENCE
PARTNERING EXPERIENCE
We enjoy collaborating with our customers from the onset of the project and believe the full team
approach results in the best quality and value to the owner. The majority of our work in the past 20
years has been using the construction manager/general contractor approach. Partnering with
owners, architects, engineers, and subcontractors allows us to review drawings, create schedules and
phasing plans, give cost opinions/options, and suggest alternative products while being cognitive of
the owner’s budget, timetable and the integrity of the design.
PRECONSTRUCTION PHASE APPROACH
Dohn Construction, Inc. takes a full team approach where the owner, architects, engineers,
designers and subcontractors collaborate to accomplish the goals of the entire team. The results are
quality and value to the owner. How we accomplish these goals starts with the preconstruction
services we offer, establishing a collaborative process at the onset of the project. Preconstruction
manager, Todd Annand, chief estimator, Brian Blake, and project manager, John Rehmer,
will perform cost estimating, scheduling and sequencing, value management, constructability reviews
and solicit bids from subcontractors. We also hope to create an enjoyable and fun experience for
the team.
To guarantee maximum value, we advertise in local trade journals, place plans online and solicit
companies from our current subcontractor database. We prequalify prospective bidders and require
all bidders to provide a detailed scope of work prior to the bid date to assure they understand the
project and have covered all aspects of their work. The goal is to have a minimum of three solid
bidders for each division of work. Dohn Construction will establish initial budgets for the various
subcontractors and then solicit multiple bids for each division. Prequalification of subcontractors
assures that only capable subcontractors will be providing bids.
During the design and preconstruction we will:
Secure Schematic Design Drawings –
Review schematic design drawings
Early investigations to limit unforeseen
conditions
Identify constructability issues
Identify long-lead items
Determine effect on project
schedule to avoid project delay
Evaluate validity of prefabricated items
Prepare preliminary schedule
Prepare schematic design budget
Cost estimate to evaluate drawing
progression
Identify and quantify potential value management ideas
Initiate Value Management Log for discussion
Evaluate project for LEED® certification and opportunities, if desired
After Design Development Documents Preparation –
Review design development documents
Early investigations to limit unforeseen conditions
Identify constructability details and issues
Identify long-lead items and detail ability to secure
Evaluate conflict resolution and crash programs through BIM modeling
Evaluate project for LEED® certification and opportunities, if desired
Prepare out of sequence bid packages
Revise project schedule
Prepare design development budget
Create potential value management log with potential savings
Decide on value management options to be incorporated into final construction
documents
Cost estimate to evaluate drawing progression
Prepare bid packages and solicit bids for long lead items
Establish initial budgets for the various subcontractors
Prepare early permit packages i.e. site package, demolition package
Prepare detailed phasing plan
Solicit subcontractor interest & begin subcontractor prequalification process
Advertise in local trade journals and electronic plan rooms
Email, phone, fax contact from our database
Ask project owners and architect for additions reference
Keep detailed meeting minutes with entire team
When Construction Documents Issued –
Identify constructability details and issues
Early investigations to limit unforeseen conditions
Initiate long lead time items’ contract/purchase orders and secure approval to issue
Establish timetable for bid process
Evaluate project for LEED® certification and opportunities, if desired
Advertise and solicit for subcontractor bids
Goal is to obtain a minimum of three bids from each CSI Division
Prepare bid packages
Develop scope of the work summaries for subcontracted work
Complete quantity take-offs for self performed work; obtain pricing for materials
Review bids for completeness in scope of works; clarify any discrepancies
Review subcontractor qualifications
Secure Contractor Qualification Statement from subcontractor
Call on subcontractor references; verify quality of their work
Analyze all subcontract bids
Prepare construction schedule
Set guaranteed maximum price (GMP)
Facilitate entitlement process & obtain all required permits
CONSTRUCTION PHASE APPROACH
Our preconstruction team will transition into our management team on and off site once the project
is awarded which provides a seamless transition to construction. Having the field operations
manager, Brett Brown, and superintendent, Bob Adleman/Nate Brock, involved in the initial
scheduling during preconstruction will provide flags for any items that may require long lead times
and address any issues of constructability. Project Manager, John Rehmer, will continue to be the
team leader for the project, providing leadership and knowledge.
Once construction begins, Dohn Construction demands a well-managed, efficient and safe job site.
Full-time supervision ensures quality materials and acceptable methods are being utilized. The
superintendent will be on-site daily and will manage the schedule and handle the on-site activity with
the subcontractors and inspectors.
Cooperation and communication with staff and the public are the keys to provide a safe work
environment. Dohn Construction facilitates on-site weekly meetings with the architect, owner, and
tenants to ensure proper communication and alert/prevent any scope or cost changes to the project,
therefore keeping everyone informed and involved. We also provide routine safety inspections to
ensure compliance with safety policies.
During the construction phase we will:
Provide all supervision, labor, material,
equipment and subcontract items, which are
necessary for the completion of the project.
Maintain detailed cost accounting records.
Provide critical path scheduling.
Make payments to subcontractors.
Coordinate required inspections.
Manage LEED® certification, if desired.
Project documentation and start up.
Warranty work for a period of one year.
As the project begins closeout, Dohn Construction will compile all necessary documentation.
Additionally, start-up and training will be scheduled with the owner to ensure a seamless transition
to the end users.
EXPERIENCE WORKING IN EXISTING FACILITIES
Dohn Construction has extensive experience working with facilities that remain open throughout
the construction process. Our goal is to minimize the impact of our intrusion through efficient
scheduling and careful consideration of the areas and staff that are directly and indirectly affected.
We will establish “rules” for all parties as well as lay out work zones and construction time frames.
The sequence of work will be critical and communication will have to be constant. It is imperative
that we work closely with your staff and personnel to discuss the impact of our work.
Communication is the key to the success of any project, but it is paramount in projects where the
business remains open. Dohn Construction will work directly with Belford Watkins and PFA to
create a team approach to completing projects. During the construction phase, it is recommended
to hold a weekly OAC meeting on site to ensure proper communication, keeping everyone informed
and involved. Details of the upcoming work will be discussed, so measures can be taken to
minimize the impact on PFA’s operations. Often noisy and obtrusive work needs to be scheduled
for off hours. Dust and sound control are a constant requirement to keep the construction and the
public areas separated. Our staff is trained to work in occupied medical facilities that demand a
great attention to detail; we carry the same fundamentals into all of our remodel work to minimize
the effect we have on the occupants.
We enjoy the challenge of working in owner occupied buildings. We understand that the safety and
comfort of your staff and the public is priority one.
PROJECT COMMUNICATION
Communication is the key to the success of any construction project. Dohn Construction will work
directly with Belford Watkins and PFA to create a team approach to completing the project. During
the construction phase, it is recommended to hold a weekly OAC meeting on site to discuss the
project progress and any issues that may have occurred. Weekly meetings will be conducted by the
contractor. There will be an agenda for each meeting and meeting minutes will be taken and
distributed. During these meetings, project logs and schedule will be reviewed. Any outstanding
items will be reviewed and the status of the item will be discussed. Resolution of conflicts and/or
disputes with also be discussed.

SAFETY RECORD
SAFETY
At Dohn Construction, Inc. (DCI), we believe it is our duty to provide our employees and
subcontractors with a safe work environment. This is accomplished by eliminating as many hazards
from the work place as possible and by educating both employees and subcontractors on safety.
Management believes that safety is a culture that needs to permeated the entire organization and be
nurtured.
All employees receive an orientation, including a handbook, of our safety rules and policies upon
employment. Employees are responsible for working safely and productively. This includes being
aware of job hazards, following safety standards and using issued personal protective equipment.
Subcontractors are required to adhere to DCI’s safety policies while on our jobsites. Subcontractors
are issued a Subcontractor Safety Handbook and they attend weekly safety training provided on our
jobsites.
In addition, DCI recognizes that a successful safety and health program must have total employee
and subcontractor support. We encourage anyone on our jobsites to notify the job superintendent
of any unsafe conditions or practices. The safety program has management’s highest priority,
support, and participation. Superintendents are in charge of daily safety on their jobs, as well as
conducting safety training on the jobsite (Toolbox Talks). In addition to the superintendent’s daily
inspections, a safety consultant performs monthly inspections of the jobsites. These consultants are
available at all times for inspections or to answer any questions that may arise.
The emphasis place on safety has had positive results. Dohn Construction is pleased to report that
we have had only two reportable OSHA violations (both classified as “Other”) in the past 5 years.
Our safety record for the last five years has been excellent. Only minor injuries have occurred,
affording us a cost containment certificate and excellent experience modification rates.

SUBCONTRACTORS
SUBCONTRACTORS
Typically, Dohn Construction, Inc. provides supervision, common labor and limited carpentry with
our own forces. We also have the ability to self perform various other aspects of the project. These
include but are not limited to:
Demolition
Rough and Finish Carpentry
Interior trim
Doors and hardware installation
Being focused on value, we competitively bid every aspect of the project except supervision. We do
not self perform any work until an independent subcontractor has bid the work. We then evaluate
each bid and the subcontractor’s scope. If we feel we can provide a better service, at a better rate
then and only then will we self perform the work.
For these projects Dohn Construction estimates that 5-10% of the work will be self-performed.
LOCAL SUBCONTRACTOR INVOLVEMENT
As a local contractor, it is imperative for us to involve the local subcontractor community as well.
We understand the difficulties and competitive nature of the construction industry but it is always a
priority to encourage the local subcontractors to become involved with our bidding process. Dohn
Construction estimates that 95% of the subcontractors involved with this project will be Northern
Colorado subcontractors.
