The consultant shall perform services and provide necessary equipment, materials and professionally trained, licensed, and experienced personnel to accomplish the plan review. On behalf of the Department of Community Development, Building Division, the consultant will perform structural plan review to establish compliance with the structural provisions of the International Building Code as amended by the State and as adopted by the City of Tukwila. During the plan review process, the Consultant may contact the permit applicant directly to request submission of additional information to the city. The Consultant will keep a written record of this communication in the project file. Upon completion of each plan review, the Consultant will furnish a summary plan review letter directly to the Building Official and a copy to the permit applicant outlining discrepancies in the plans, reports, and/or calculations (as applicable). The Consultant will perform follow-up plan reviews as required to confirm that plans have been corrected adequately to address comments in the original plan review. In these instances, the Consultant will furnish additional letters directly to the Building Official and a copy to the permit applicant summarizing the results of the review. When the Consultant is satisfied that the proposed structural work is in compliance with the structural provisions of the Building Code, the Consultant will issue a final letter stating that there are no further comments. The plan review services for each permit applicant will be treated as an individual project. The Consultant will track associated labor and material costs according to each project and invoice the City accordingly. The Consultant will invoice the City prior to the 10th of each month. The city may need other structural engineering services throughout the term of the on-call agreement. For these instances, the Consultant will perform structural engineering services as mutually agreed to by both parties.
