The paradigm for Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) firms is changing more rapidly
than ever before. Sustained growth depends on flexibility, agility, and adaptation to changing
business objectives at many levels or layers within an organization.
As a result your business management software investment should enable business process flexibility,
support organizational change, and foster rapid adaptation to evolving operational and market needs.
It should not be a series of silos and bottlenecks, rather a unified ecosystem that provides role specific
insight to anticipate rather than react to rapid change.
To meet these demands, Sopris AEC software for Microsoft Dynamics provides agile project-based
business management software that enables your firm to stay innovative with leading edge practices,
thereby delivering insights that enable better decisions and guide adaptive processes that optimize results.
Innovative Client Relations Management Technologies for Engineers
Join Matt Pfohl, Executive Vice President of Sopris Systems and a panel of industry experts as they
discuss these innovations and opportunities with Big Data, Mobility, Cloud, and Social Media.

Why Use P3?
Public Owner Perspective
 Faster than fully funding by public at start
 Defer payments over time
 Frees up public capital and debt capacity
 Upfront capital from private side
 Transfer usage risk to private entity
 Delegate design, O&M responsibility
 Overall lower costs due to better design, management, and
maintenance program
 Optimize risk allocation to party best able to take
 Full collaboration between team members
6
P3 Financing Options
 Fewer options than horizontal construction
 No TIFIA for public buildings
 Private Activity Bonds (PABs)
 Private infrastructure investment companies
 E.g., Macquarie, Meridiam, InfraRed, John Laing
 Normal public finance (taxation, bonds)
 Tax credits
 New Markets, Historic Preservation, Renewable Energy
 63-20 Public Benefit Corporations
 Nonprofit corporations whose debt does not count against
statutory public debt limits
P3 Joint Venturing
 Concessionaire is frequently a JV
 Developer, contractor, designer, financier, O&M
 Strategic JV allows P3 expertise
 Consider P3 project history
 Geographic presence
 Relationship with owner
 Similar project experience
 Who leads negotiation between JV and owner?
7
Responding to P3 RFPs
 Focus on benefit to public owner
 Schedule acceleration
 Cost savings
 How does this project impact owner’s other projects?
 Monetize risk transfer to offset higher costs
 Lifecycle focus
 What happens if project revenue is below expectations?
 Quality of design and construction
 Turnover plan
 Stipend availability to cover significant proposal costs
 Technical, Financial, and Marketing
 Creativity in responding to Design Flexibility
P3 Contracting
Concessionaire Level
 No common “form” so each agreement is unique
 Public owner attempt at “absolute liability”
 Long concession periods
 e.g., 20, 30, 35, 50 years
 Public funding sources
 O&M responsibility
 Absolute liability
 Asset return/turnover provisions
8
P3 Contracting
Lower Tier Levels
 Incorporation of concessionaire contract
 What was the concessionaire’s point of view?
 Where is payment coming from?
 Future public funds
 Toll or user revenue
 How legitimate is the projection?
 Private entity
 Financial due diligence
P3 Insurance Considerations
 Length of concession
 Who is financially responsible for premium?
 Owner or contractor controlled insurance program
 Project specific excess policy or endorsement
 Not subject to exhaustion by other projects
 Joint defense by all design team members
 In place for project duration plus extended reporting
 Concessionaire default
 Bond or letter of credit
 Subcontractor default
9
Limitation of Liability on P3 Projects
 Incorporation of concession contract
 Concession typically trumps subconsultant contract
 Potential for unenforceable public indemnity
 Violates concept of sovereign immunity
 Arguments for LOL:
 Owner is ultimate beneficiary of project and thus it is
unreasonable for DP to accept all risk
 Design fees are small in relation to risk
 Arguments against LOL on P3:
 Concession expected to take on absolute liability
 Concession period is longer than typical and DP/concessionaire
has control over project
Contract Administration and Long-Term
Maintenance Engineering
 No form contracts
 Starting point is likely a state contract
 Replacement of public “resident engineer” or engineering
department
 Beware of heightened contractual standard of care or typical
duties
 Plan for personnel changes
 Quality as-built drawings
 BIM
 O&M plan
10
P3 Lessons Learned
 Public relations
 Transportation project failure
 Indiana Toll Road
 South Bay Expressway
 Inadequate usage compared with studies
 CLEM7 tunnel
 Brisbane, AU

Acquisition of Above Ground Data
StreetMapper uses well-proven laser scanning
technology in both accuracy and range to
capture the position of up to 600,000 3D points
per second while in motion. The specified
positional accuracy is better than 30mm and the
point-to-point accuracy within the data is better
than 10mm. Terrametrix typical positional
accuracy has been 8 to 13 mm.

Trends towards SMART cities
1. Increasing use of sensors for realtime monitoring of infrastructure
conditions.
2. Increasing availability and
frequency of satellite imaging of
“the big picture”.
3. The explosion of mobile devices
making geospatial and other data
more useful.
