About
this document ...
This document provides information
similar to that of standard forms SF-254 and SF-255. It is intended for the
use of clients considering our credentials and to aid in the the preparation
of proposals where appropriate.
Statistics:
We are awarded 100 - 150 commissions per
year and our annual billings have been more than $1 million for over a decade.
MPE construction costs for our projects have been as low as $20 thousand
to more than $20 million. Our total staff of 20 includes
engineers, designers, CAD operators and interns, administrative
and estimator.
Terms:
Engineering Services are offered on prime, interprofessional
or joint venture basis under AIA/NSPE or similar standard contracts. Architectural,
structural, civil, landscape, and interior design can be provided using consultants
from our list of Clients. We can provide single source professional responsibility
on projects for which engineering is the primary concern.
Please do not ask us to bid our services based on price.
Competitive bidding has its place, but it is not the best way to buy advice
(or romance). ;-) . Besides, it violates the law in some cases
and, in our view, the ethics of our profession in all cases. If you select
our firm for a commission based on merit, we will negotiate a reasonable fee
as the 2nd step. Our fees can be based on 1.) our standard hourly rate, 2.)
a percentage of construction cost, 3.) lump sum, or a combination of the
above.
Fanning, Fanning, and
Associates inc., Consulting Engineers qualifies as a small business. We are
an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not qualify as a HUB, minority, or woman
owned business.
