BUSINESS OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE
GERMANTOWN, WI
MEETING DATE: June 11, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Action
ITEM TITLE: Contract for Owners Representation for New Police Department
SUBMITTED BY: Chief Patrick Merten
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Village has already initiated the selection of an Architectural/Engineering (A/E) team and
intends to utilize a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) project delivery method. The Owner’s
Representative (OR) will serve as the Village’s primary advocate, ensuring the project remains
on schedule, within budget, and aligned with the operational, security, and functional
requirements of a modern law enforcement facility. While the final project cost has not yet been
determined, preliminary estimates place the total project cost at approximately $34.5 million.
The Police Department Working Group issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to three Owner’s
Representative firms and received proposals from all three: M -C Group, Luther Group, and
Cadence Consulting. The Working Group reviewed and evaluated each proposal using the
following criteria:
• Experience with Public Safety / Police Facilities (20 points)
• Qualifications of Personnel (30 points)
• Approach to CMAR Budget and Schedule Oversight (20 points)
• Proposed Fee Structure (10 points)
• References from Similar Wisconsin Municipalities (10 points)
• Interview (10 points)
The Police Department Working Group conducted interviews with two of the three firms.
Cadence Consulting was unable to participate in the scheduled interview process and therefore
did not receive interview points. The firms interviewed were M -C Group and Luther Group.
Following the interviews and final evaluation process, the firms received the following overall
scores on a 100-point scale:
• M-C Group – 83 out of 100
• Luther Group – 49 out of 100
Based on the results of the proposal review, interviews, references, and overall evaluation
process, the Working Group determined that M -C Group is the most qualified firm to serve as
the Village’s Owner’s Representative for the new police facility project. M -C Group
demonstrated extensive experience with public facility projects, a strong understanding of
CMAR project delivery, and a proven ability to provide effective project oversight. In addition, M -
C Group has established professional relationships with numerous qualified A/E and CMAR
firms throughout the region and is well-positioned to collaborate with FGM Architects and the
selected CMAR team throughout the design and construction process.
Therefore, the Police Department Working Group recommends that the Village Board authorize
staff to enter into an agreement with M-C Group to provide Owner’s Representative services for
the new police facility project.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Dear Chief Merten,
Congratulations on receiving community support to plan and implement a much-needed new Police Department in
the Village of Germantown. The new state-of-the-art facility will serve the community for current and future
generations to come.
MC Group LLC will be honored to play a role in assisting you, your staff and the Village’s' leaders in the planning,
design and implementation of this important and exciting project. We will act as an extension of your staff
protecting your interests as though they were ours in all aspects of the project. We feel that we have developed a
customized fit of owner representative services that do not overlap efforts and responsibilities of other project
stakeholders, including the design team and construction manager at risk.
The services and the resulting added value that they create are depicted and outlined in this proposal. If you have
any questions about any component of our proposal, please contact me; I will enthusiastically address any inquiries
you may have. After digesting the contents of our proposal, we hope that you will agree that MC Group LLC is the
perfect partner for this important project. Some of our key differentiators include:
The Most Experience: MC Group's experience is unmatched. We have been providing focused Owner's Rep
services since 1998, serving many notable institutional, educational, corporate and healthcare clients in
Southeast Wisconsin. The majority of our work is through repeat clients; testimony to the value that we bring.
A Recognized Entity: We are the longest standing Owner’s Representative firm serving Southeast Wisconsin
guiding Owners through complex projects to successful conclusions. Having a wide net of respected resources
brings more exposure and interest to your project; this translates to high value outcomes.
Customized Work Plan: No cookie cutter services proposal from us. We carefully craft the levels of services to the
specific needs of the project. We focus on the specific needs and avoid duplicative services provided by other
project stakeholders. By focusing our efforts where we drive value we can provide efficient involvement which
allows our reduced fee proposal.
We Are Facilitators: We believe in Win-Win relationships. We are avid facilitators working in an open, transparent
and respectful environment. By listening, reacting and monitoring the needs and inquiries of other project
stakeholders including the designers and constructors, we keep information flowing. Answers are the grease that
keeps the gears turning. Architects and construction managers respect us for the collaborative environment
that we foster.
We Are Highly Interested: We're really excited about the opportunity to serve on this project. I’ve called the
Germantown area home for the past 36 years, having sent my kids through the Germantown school district,
having coached Germantown Rec youth football and basketball and enjoying all that Germantown offers. (Our
current favorite is the Relish). We love projects that bring valuable services to the local community, especially
the community that we live in.
Thank you for the opportunity to present our firm, our values, our people and our proposed work plan for your
important project. We believe that we've hit the mark, but if not, please let us know. We are highly interested in
serving you in the manner that you envision and are amenable to feedback.
We look forward to next steps!

RIC
MILLER
PROFILE
Sense of accomplishment is at the root of Ric’s
passion for the construction industry. Ric finds it
very motivating and truly inspiring to experience
the progress on a jobsite week by week and
month by month overseeing and observing
what a diverse group of people have
accomplished. Starting with a University of
Wisconsin Construction Administration degree,
Ric personally brings almost 40 years of
experience in the construction industry to the
table with a valuable mix of 17 years serving the
constructor’s role as CMGC with the balance of
the years serving as Owner’s Representative
leading the project team on the journey to
success.
A lesson that Ric has learned along the journey
in life is that there are certain things that we all
covet, but which we can’t begin to receive until
we first give them away to others. Respect is
one of those things and is a cornerstone of Ric’s
interactions with all people

Experience
“[We] extend our sincere appreciation for the leadership
and guidance that you [Ric Miller] and the MC Group have
provided in managing our complex campus Thermal Power
Plant Project. Your organization and ongoing management
of the many aspects of the project allowed our
administration and board comfort and confidence over the
entire 5-year journey. Your meticulous management and
monthly reporting of the detailed project financial status
allowed MRMC Thermal and the campus members to invest
project savings into plant reliability and efficiency-added
features as the project proceeded, giving us far more in the
end than we originally planned. Thanks for guiding us down
that successful path.”

MC GROUP’S PROVEN RECORD OF SUCCESS
and deep excavations adjacent densely populated and
busy campuses, just feet away from the busiest Emergency
Department in Milwaukee County. Our unique experiences
also range to oversight of sensitive archaeological
excavations of pauper graves, with careful removal of
human remains through collaboration with UW Milwaukee
archaeologists.
While these unique experiences may not directly apply to
the Village of Germantown’s New Police Department
building project, it demonstrates our capabilities to develop
unique and collaborative solutions.
Services for clients and projects routinely include tracking
progress, schedule, budget, costs, cost forecasting,
diversity and inclusion engagement, as well as helping to
guide major decisions and navigate project changes.
SECTION 3: Experience
At MC Group, we have found that a collaborative project
team has improved outcomes and increased project
delivery speed, while promoting cost efficiency and
reducing overall risk to both the Owner and the project. An
outcome of completing decades of successful and
collaborative projects, MC Group has developed strong,
professional relationships with most qualified AE and CMAR
firms in the regional market, and look forward to continuing
this tradition working with FGM Architects and the selected
CM team members.
Utilizing the collaborative team approach that MC Group
outlines in this proposal, the Village of Germantown can take
advantage of a huge range of project experience. Ric, and
Maura have extensive project experience with highly
complex and technical campus and building construction,
including hospitals, schools, corporations, and industrial
facilities. Project examples include multi-story vertical high-
rise expansions above high acuity inpatient units
for extremely vulnerable transplant patients, and demolition

CITY OF PORT WASHINGTON
PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING
Originally established with a $35 million total project budget, the Port
Washington Public Safety Building project was successfully value-
engineered to approximately $32 million through a disciplined and
highly collaborative preconstruction process led by MC Group as the
Owner’s Representative.
The new Public Safety Building will consolidate police, fire, and civic
functions into a unified shared campus while modernizing and
expanding the City’s existing public safety infrastructure.
The police component of the facility includes secure police
administration space, a virtual indoor training range, secure evidence
storage, a squad garage with integrated sallyport operations, and
dedicated emergency operations space designed to support critical
incident management and continuity of operations. The fire
department portion includes fire administration, a six-bay apparatus
area, and full-time living quarters designed to support 24/7 operations.
Shared spaces between the police and fire functions include a public
lobby, large training and courtroom space, and a shared fitness room
intended to support both operational readiness and staff wellness.
As Owner’s Representative, MC Group has led overall project
coordination and management efforts including schedule oversight,
budget management, design-phase coordination, value engineering,
procurement support, stakeholder engagement, construction
administration, and ongoing communication between the City,
consultants, contractors, and user groups. MC Group continues to
guide the project through active construction with occupancy
anticipated in Summer 2026.

MILWAUKEE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
THERMAL ENERGY PLANT & DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
In 2014 the members of MRMC formed MRMC-Thermal with the intent to
purchase, expand, upgrade, and operate the centralized plant. On
4/21/2016 MRMC Thermal closed on the property and proceeded with the
major upgrades and expansion projects with the goal of increasing
reliability, redundancy, and increased efficiency.
The high-risk nature of the business plan, and no ability to fund budget
overages, prompted MRMC to engage Ric Miller's support. Ric was able
to work with Bob Mlynarek to guide the project budget back into
alignment. Throughout the course of the project, with detail monitoring
and forecasting, the project was able to use significant budget savings to
re-invest those dollars into additional system improvements.
The overall budget supported three projects including a temporary boiler
plan, and conversion of the main plan from coal to natural gas while
adding n+ 1 redundancy. The third project focused on distributing chilled
water and steam to multiple landowners and tenants throughout the
MRMC Campus. The 36" and 48" pipelines crossed Watertown Plank Road,
a major thoroughfare providing access to US Hwy 41. From there, the
pipelines had to be distributed throughout the campus to multiple end
users, running parallel and crossing multiple campus roadways. Ric
coordinated and communicated with the project's CMGC and MRMC
Campus' Mark Geronime daily to ensure the project phasing, utility
coordination, and pedestrian and vehicle traffic management prevented
any impacts to the busiest campus in the Milwaukee regional area.

Drawing from MC Group’s experience
supporting complex public safety
projects, including the Port Washington
Public Safety Building that combines
both police and fire department
operations within a single facility, we
understand the operational and
security challenges associated with
modern law enforcement and
emergency services facilities. We
recognize the importance of balancing
operational requirements, security
considerations, constructability, budget
constraints, and long-term functionality
throughout the planning and
construction process.
MC Group will function as an extension
to the Department’s staff and to the
Village’s leaders while always acting in
the best interest of the Owner without
conflicting interests. We will bring our
extensive experience, knowledge,
processes and tools to guide the Project
Team to successful outcomes by all
measures.
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
MC Group understands the Village of Germantown is undertaking the development of a new Police Department
facility at N122W17177 Fond du Lac Avenue in Germantown, Wisconsin, on the site of the former Department of
Public Works (DPW) facility. The project also includes utility infrastructure sanitary sewer and water main
extensions that will be overseen by the Village Engineer.
The Village’s goal is to deliver a modern, purpose-built public safety facility that supports current operational
needs while accommodating future growth, evolving service demands, and modern law enforcement best
practices. The facility is anticipated to include specialized public safety components such as a live-fire indoor
training range, secure evidence storage, sallyport operations, emergency operations space, and integrated
security and technology systems requiring careful coordination throughout design and construction.
The Village has selected the Architectural/Engineering (A/E) team and is in the process of selecting the
Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR). MC Group will complete the team roster as Owner’s Representative to serve
as the Village’s advocate by providing project leadership, coordination, budget oversight, schedule management,
and strategic guidance necessary to support successful project delivery below the Village’s established $35 million
Total Project Budget.

“Because of MC Group’s involvement in the project, and
the amount of work, follow up and coordination they
provided, more time than I can estimate was saved for City
Police and Fire command personnel to work on other
department business or to really research key aspects of
construction and wants. They truly took much of the
workload off of city staff, and made the whole experience
less stressful, and more efficient than, in my opinion, it would
have otherwise been. I am happy to say that they were
integral to the project completing on time and under
budget.
Based on our experience, I would strongly recommend MC
Group for similar public safety and municipal facility
projects.”

BUSINESS OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE
GERMANTOWN, WI
MEETING DATE: June 11, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Action
ITEM TITLE: Construction Manager at Risk for New Police Department
SUBMITTED BY: Chief Patrick Merten
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Village has concurrently retained FGM Architects as the Architectural/Engineering (A/E)
team to lead the design of the new Police Department facility. The selected Construction
Manager at Risk (CMAR) will be integrated into the project team at the 30% Design Milestone to
provide pre-construction services, cost estimating, scheduling assistance, and construction
phase management.
The Village is also in the process of onboarding an Owner’s Representative (OR) who will serve
as the Village’s primary advocate throughout the project. The OR will help ensure the project
remains on schedule, within the approved budget, and meets the operational, security, and
functional requirements of a modern law enforcement facility. Current preliminary cost estimates
place the project at approximately $34.5 million.
The Police Department Working Group issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for CMAR services
to six qualified firms. The Village received proposals from the following three firms:
• CG Schmidt
• Kraus-Anderson
• Moore Construction
The working group is currently reviewing and evaluating each proposal based on the following
criteria:
• Relevant Experience – 5 points
• Project Team – 30 points
• Pre-Construction Approach – 20 points
• Schedule and Logistics – 15 points
• Fee Proposal – 10 points
• Safety and Quality Management – 10 points
• Interview – 10 points
The PD Working Group and Owner’s Representative will conduct interviews with all three firms
on June 17, 2026. Following the interviews, each firm will be scored and ranked on a 100 -point
scale. The committee will then provide a recommendation for CMAR selection to the Village
Board for consideration and approval.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
ATTACHMENT: ORDINANCE___ RESOLUTION_____ OTHER__X__
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation for the PD Working Group to proceed with interviews on June 17, 2026, and,
following completion of the evaluation process, to return to the Village Board with a
recommendation for the selection of a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) for the Police
Department facility project.

Village of Germantown
N112 W16877 Mequon Road
Germantown, WI 53022
Dear Chief Merten and Ms. Barth,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit CG Schmidt’s qualifications to serve as Construction Manager at Risk for the new
Germantown Police Department facility. We are honored that the Village recently selected CG Schmidt as CMAR for the
Fire Station renovation project. As we begin working with Village leadership and staff on that important public safety
investment, we appreciate the opportunity to continue building upon those relationships through this project.
Risk Management for a Highly Specialized Public Safety Facility
This facility is far more than a standard municipal building. Secure circulation, detention functions, evidence handling,
tactical training, emergency operations, public access, and indoor live-fire training all must operate together within one
highly coordinated environment. Successfully delivering a facility of this complexity requires disciplined planning, strong
communication, and proactive coordination from the earliest stages of design.
Early Infrastructure & Site Risk Reduction
The project also presents significant infrastructure and site coordination challenges, including utility extensions,
stormwater management, and subsurface conditions. CG Schmidt brings relevant experience managing complex site and
infrastructure work throughout Southeastern Wisconsin, including projects involving challenging bedrock conditions and
municipal utility coordination. That experience helps reduce uncertainty early and supports more reliable budgeting and
scheduling throughout the project.
Transparent Municipal Partnership
Equally important, we understand the responsibility of guiding a transparent municipal process. As a CMaR with no self-
perform work, CG Schmidt approaches this role entirely from the owner’s perspective. Our responsibility is to provide
open-book cost transparency, objective recommendations, competitive procurement, and clear communication throughout
design and construction.
We also believe there is meaningful value in extending the Village’s partnership with CG Schmidt across both public safety
projects. The Village has already invested time establishing communication processes, project expectations, and working
relationships with our team. Continuing that partnership creates efficiencies in coordination, decision-making, and project
management while reducing the learning curve associated with complex municipal projects.
Thank you again for your consideration. We would be honored to continue partnering with the Village of Germantown on
this important facility.
Sincerely,
Joe Hoffmeier

Schmidt: A family name. A 106-year promise.
Founded in 1920 by Dutch immigrant Charles Schmidt, CG Schmidt was built
on a simple yet powerful idea: a name is only as strong as the reputation
behind it. He believed that every project was a reflection of character, and
that belief still guides us today.
Now in our fifth generation of family leadership, CG Schmidt has grown into
one of Wisconsin’s leading commercial builders. We’ve stayed true to the
core values passed down over the past 106 years—integrity, caring, and a
passion for excellence.
We are proud to be the trusted partner on many of the state’s most
respected organizations in communities across the state and nation, and
look forward to the opportunity to serve The Village of Germantown and
Germantown Police Department.

Adaptive Planning & Field
Coordination
BEDROCK CONSIDERATIONS
During construction, the project team encountered site conditions where underlying bedrock
influenced both utility infrastructure and excavation activities. With much of the site underlain
by shallow bedrock, traditional subsurface installations required careful coordination and
adaptation, particularly in relation to existing and new gas systems. The team worked closely
with the owner and trade partners to evaluate subsurface conditions, adjust system layouts,
and manage risk associated with limited excavation depths and unknown existing conditions.
This included coordinating the replacement of multiple propane systems and ensuring all
work was executed safely and in compliance with excavation protocols. Through proactive
investigation, strategic planning, and continuous field coordination, the team successfully
navigated the challenges associated with bedrock conditions while maintaining project
schedule and minimizing disruption to ongoing school operations.

SYSTEMS TO ENSURE QUALITY
The Germantown Police Station will benefit from:
» PRE-INSTALLATION MEETINGS // Prior to the implementation of any large work packages being put in place, our
team holds pre-installation meetings to review shop drawings and identify potentially problematic construction
details or schedule, weather or material concerns that could impact the quality of the work. This often involves
creating mock-ups for key items to verify the quality of the work and the material. By identifying these items before
the work is installed, we offer clarity and address potential issues before they become costly field conditions or
punch-list or warranty items.
» BENCHMARKING // The first step of every key installation is inspection to confirm it meets the requirements of
the documents and the expectations of stakeholders before it is replicated throughout the space.
» FIELD ENGINEERING AND TESTING PROGRAM // We work with the project team to develop a comprehensive
field engineering and testing program, making recommendations for appropriate levels of independent inspection
for systems and materials.
» QC CHECKLISTS AND AUDITS // Problem-free installation is greatly achieved by pre-planning installation and
reviewing requirements for correct installation with field teams who perform the work. However, we still utilize
quality control checklists and audits to confirm that installations are, in fact, properly completed before the work is
covered by the next sequential installation.
Instead of relying on post-installation inspections to find and fix quality
issues that add cost and waste time, CG Schmidt’s Quality Management
Program finds problems before they occur. Our Quality Management
Program increases value and cost accuracy while mandating overall
project quality by:
» Building quality directly into the plans and specifications by
collaborating with architects as they complete their drawings and
addressing difficult or unclear construction details before they
become part of the final construction documents.
» Highlighting work scope and building systems which may require
mitigation to avoid warranty call-backs and repairs.

Dear Chief Merten, Ms. Barth, and Selection Committee,
Your vision for a modern, resilient public safety facility is more than
a construction project—it is a commitment to the safety, well-being,
and future of the Village of Germantown. The stakes are high, and the
expectations are clear: your new police station must not only serve as a
secure, efficient hub for law enforcement, but also stand as a symbol of
trust and service for every resident.
This project demands a partner who understands the unique
operational, logistical, and technical challenges of public safety
construction. The experience Kraus-Anderson (KA) has gained from
delivering complex police stations and public safety facilities—including
those listed in our project experience—translates directly to your goals.
These projects required seamless phasing, uninterrupted operations,
and close coordination with multiple user groups, all while maintaining
strict budget and schedule discipline.
Key project considerations, including bedrock excavation, stormwater
management, extensive utility extensions, and the specialized
requirements of a live-fire range with its unique ballistics and ventilation
systems, necessitate a CMaR with a deep understanding of complex
municipal and law enforcement facility construction. The focus remains
on delivering a facility that not only meets the immediate needs but also
aligns with the Village’s 30-year operational life cycle objectives through
careful cost management, schedule adherence, and rigorous quality and
safety protocols.
The Village's new police department project deserves a team that brings
proven solutions, not just promises. The lessons learned from managing
active municipal campuses, integrating advanced security and evidence
handling, and delivering sustainable, future-ready facilities will be
leveraged to anticipate challenges and drive results. The focus remains
on your priorities: operational continuity, stakeholder engagement, and
a facility that supports your officers and staff for decades to come.
This is your moment to set a new standard for public safety in the
Village. Let’s build a facility that not only meets today’s needs but
also inspires confidence and pride for generations. The opportunity to
partner with you on this transformative project is both an honor and
a responsibility—one that will be met with unwavering commitment,
expertise, and purpose.

Bedrock Risk
Range Complexity
Utility Logistics
Long-Lead Equipment
Budget Discipline
Life Cycle Focus
The Village of Germantown is undertaking one of its most significant public
safety investments in recent history — the complete replacement of its existing
police department facility with a new, approximately 64,500 to 66,500 SF
headquarters designed to serve the community for decades to come. Sited at
the former Department of Public Works building at N122 W17177 Fond du Lac
Avenue, the project involves complex site conditions, a substantial 2,500-foot
sanitary sewer and water main extension, and technically demanding program
elements — including a live-fire range, secure indoor sallyport, evidence
storage, and modern police administration and investigation spaces.
Kraus-Anderson understands that the Village's primary concerns center on five
interrelated challenges: unpredictable bedrock conditions that could introduce
cost and schedule risk; the complexity and safety requirements of the live-fire
range systems; the logistics of a 2,500-foot utility corridor along a live public
roadway; long lead times for specialized range HVAC and electrical switchgear;
and maintaining rigorous budget discipline within a $35 million construction
budget while protecting a 30-year operational life cycle for the facility.
Kraus-Anderson will join the project team at the 30% design milestone,
working in close collaboration with FGM Architects to deliver preconstruction
and construction phase services under a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP)
contract framework. The team's approach is grounded in the principle that the
most successful construction projects start with collaborative planning and
communication well before breaking ground, allowing every decision to be made
with accurate cost and schedule data in hand.
PROJECT APPROACH
Project Understanding
Page 98 of 169
New Village of Germantown Police Department Facility | KA Proposal | 16
PROJECT APPROACH
Pre-Construction Services
Kraus-Anderson's preconstruction process is a cornerstone of its project delivery
approach, emphasizing collaboration, transparency, and strategic planning. At its
core, the team considers that the greatest ability to influence cost, schedule, quality,
and constructability occurs well before construction starts — making early integration
at the 30% design milestone a critical advantage for the Village.
Cost Estimating and Estimate Reconciliation
Kraus-Anderson will provide detailed milestone estimates at the 30%, 60%, 90%,
and 100% design phases, reconciling each estimate with FGM Architects to
confirm alignment between design intent and budget reality. Leveraging the team's
proprietary Modelogix platform and historical project cost database, estimates will
be structured to reflect the actual level of design detail at each milestone — from
conceptual system-level modeling through trade-specific line items as the documents
mature. All estimates will be presented as living documents, updated transparently
throughout the design phase to reflect market conditions, design evolution, and any
scope adjustments — eliminating financial surprises for the Village.
Value Management
Value management at Kraus-Anderson is a collaborative team endeavor involving not just the project manager and
estimator, but also the project superintendent, in-house MEP specialists, and building science managers — all
working together to identify alternatives that protect design intent while aligning scope with the Village's $35 million
budget and the facility's 30-year operational life cycle requirements. Alternatives will be tracked within the estimate
body as voluntary alternates, allowing the full cost impact to be seen in real time as options are accepted or rejected
by the Village and FGM Architects.
Constructability Reviews
Kraus-Anderson will conduct rigorous constructability reviews at each design
milestone, with particular focus on the two highest-risk technical elements: bedrock
excavation and live-fire range systems. These reviews identify and resolve conflicts
within the documents, detect and eliminate future change orders and requests for
information, minimize project delays, and enhance overall project scheduling. BIM
and VDC tools will be employed to detect system conflicts — particularly between
mechanical ductwork, ballistic wall assemblies, and structural elements — before
construction begins, preventing costly field rework.
Baseline Schedule Development
Kraus-Anderson will develop a comprehensive baseline construction schedule at the outset of the preconstruction
phase that encompasses all critical milestones — from design completion through construction and closeout. The
schedule will specifically account for long-lead equipment procurement, with early identification of specialized
range HVAC systems and electrical switchgear that carry extended manufacturing lead times. The schedule will also
address sequencing for the utility extension corridor, earthwork and bedrock mitigation, and the phased construction
approach required on the Fond du Lac Avenue site.

PROJECT APPROACH
Utility Extension Strategy
The 2,500-foot sanitary sewer and water main extension represents one of the most logistically demanding elements
of this project, requiring careful coordination along Fond du Lac Avenue to manage traffic, maintain public access,
and control costs within the overall $35 million construction budget.
During preconstruction, Kraus-Anderson will work with FGM Architects and the Village's civil engineer to conduct
a detailed constructability review of the utility corridor, identifying trench depth requirements, potential bedrock
interference along the route, and any conflicts with existing underground utilities. Bedrock conditions identified
along the Fond du Lac Avenue alignment will be modeled early to avoid unforeseen excavation costs and to give the
Village a realistic contingency framework before the GMP is established.
Our team will develop a phased utility installation sequence that coordinates closely with the building construction
timeline. The utility extension will be advanced as an early work package — activated ahead of the main building
footprint work — so that site service connections are ready and available when the facility structure reaches critical
milestones. This sequencing strategy directly supports schedule compression and eliminates the risk of the building
being ready while utility connections remain incomplete.
A detailed traffic control and disruption avoidance plan will be prepared for work along Fond du Lac Avenue,
addressing site entrance and exit points, designated delivery and staging zones, signage and wayfinding, and
coordination protocols with the Village and adjacent property owners. Stormwater management controls will be
established and maintained in compliance with Best Management Practice (BMP) requirements throughout the
duration of the utility excavation work.
Page 101 of 169
New Village of Germantown Police Department Facility | KA Proposal | 19
PROJECT APPROACH
Live-Fire Range Integration
The indoor live-fire range is one of the single most technically complex element of the new Germantown Police
Department facility, requiring specialized expertise in ballistic containment systems, acoustic isolation, and
dedicated range ventilation. Kraus-Anderson treats this scope as a distinct work package within the broader project,
applying focused constructability review, early procurement, and heightened quality inspection protocols to this
element from the start of preconstruction.
During the design phase, Kraus-Anderson's in-house MEP specialists will engage directly with FGM Architects and
the range systems designer to review ventilation design documents for accuracy, thoroughness, code compliance,
and value management opportunities. BIM coordination will be used to confirm that the range exhaust and supply
systems, ballistic wall assemblies, and structural elements are fully coordinated, with all system conflicts resolved in
the virtual environment before construction activities commence.
The specialized range HVAC system will be identified as a long-lead item at the outset of preconstruction, with early
manufacturer engagement initiated to confirm lead times, lock in equipment specifications in coordination with the
design team, and sequence procurement to avoid any impact on the construction schedule. During construction,
preinstallation meetings will be held with the range systems installer before any ballistic or ventilation components
are placed, confirming that trade sequencing, fit, and performance standards are understood and agreed upon by all
parties. Inspection checkpoints specific to ballistic panel installation, trap and bullet containment, and ventilation
system performance will be built into the project's quality control plan.
Page 102 of 169
New Village of Germantown Police Department Facility | KA Proposal | 20
PROJECT APPROACH
Safety and Quality Management
Job site safety is Kraus-Anderson's top priority. Our team strives for zero lost time on every project through a
proactive, prevention-first approach to safety management. For the Germantown Police Department project, a
site-specific safety plan will be developed that includes an emergency management plan developed jointly with
the Village, safety program reviews for each subcontractor, a comprehensive job site safety orientation, daily
safety huddles, weekly toolbox meetings led by the superintendent, and weekly OAC progress meetings to keep all
stakeholders aware of ongoing and upcoming construction activities.
Special safety protocols will govern work within and adjacent to the live-fire range construction zone. Given the
specialized nature of ballistic wall system installation and range ventilation equipment, Kraus-Anderson will implement
mandatory preinstallation meetings for these scopes, with all trade personnel briefed on the specific handling,
sequencing, and installation requirements before work commences. Inspection checkpoints will be established at critical
installation stages to confirm compliance with design specifications and all applicable safety standards.
Kraus-Anderson's quality assurance and quality control program spans all project phases, from preconstruction
through closeout, with an emphasis on prevention over correction. During construction, quality control will be
maintained through full-time on-site supervision and preinstallation meetings for all critical work scopes, with daily
job site walks conducted to confirm the quality of work as it progresses. The closeout phase will include system
testing and commissioning, walk-throughs with Village facility personnel, and comprehensive as-built documentation
to support the long-term 30-year operational life cycle of the new facility.
Throughout all phases, Kraus-Anderson will leverage Forma Build (Formerly known as Autodesk Build) for real-time
communication, document control, and project reporting, making sure the Village, FGM Architects, and all project
stakeholders have access to current schedules, submittals, and project status information at all times. Monthly
progress reports, ongoing budget tracking, and schedule updates will be delivered to the Village throughout the
construction phase, providing full transparency and supporting prompt, informed decision-making at every stage of
the project.

New Village of Germantown Police Department Facility | KA Proposal | 22
Kraus-Anderson Construction Company utilizes Kraus-Anderson Insurance
Agency for standard insurance coverage, including general liability, builder's
risk, and all other requirements applicable to a project of this scale. A Certificate
of Liability Insurance confirming current coverage levels is available and will be
included as an appendix to this submission.
Subcontractor Default Insurance
To provide an additional layer of financial protection, Kraus-Anderson uses
Subcontractor Default Insurance (SDI) alongside traditional bonding wherever
possible. SDI offers broader and more flexible coverage than conventional
subcontractor bonding, and grants Kraus-Anderson greater control over claims
resolution in the event of a default — supporting timely project delivery and
protecting the Village from non-payment exposure at the second-tier level.
Additionally, Kraus-Anderson maintains a lien waiver policy to confirm that all
subcontractors are paying their sub-subcontractors and suppliers, providing
the Village with protection against non-payment concerns throughout the
construction phase of the New Police Department Facility.
Bonding Capacity
Kraus-Anderson confirms the ability to furnish 100% Performance and Payment
Bonds for the Village of Germantown's New Police Department Facility at the
required $30 million total project cost threshold.
Kraus-Anderson's bonding company is Travelers Casualty and Surety Company
of America. Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America has bonded
Kraus-Anderson for over 60 years and stands as a leader in the surety industry
for over a century. Kraus-Anderson remains financially strong with a bond
program of $500 million per contract, with an overall capacity of $1.2 billion
— well in excess of the $35 million bond requirement established by this RFP.
In the past, Travelers has supported and bonded Kraus-Anderson projects up
to $500,000,000, demonstrating the depth of the surety relationship and the
financial standing of Kraus-Anderson relative to the demands of this engagement.

PROJECT APPROACH
UTILITY EXTENSION:
Our approach to utility extensions focuses
on early identification, coordination,
and seamless integration with existing
infrastructure.
Collaborate with the civil engineer, utility providers, and design
team early in the design phase to confirm routing, capacity, and
connection requirements
Identify potential conflicts or constraints and develop solutions
proactively to avoid delays during construction
Incorporate utility work into the overall project schedule and
phasing plan to maintain continuity of service where required
Create a separate bid package for utility work to support clear
scope definition and coordination with trade partners
Coordinate closely with subcontractors and local authorities
to ensure compliance with all permitting and inspection
requirements
Monitor installation activities in the field to confirm alignment
with design intent and regulatory standards
Coordinate daily with subcontractors through on-site supervision
to align field activities with project goals
Moore Construction Services was part of a team, along with Graef and PRA, to assess the Village’s Public
Safety Building options. As part of this effort, we toured the existing facilities, interviewed key staff
members, and developed design concepts and budgets for both co-site and separate site locations,
ultimately producing a final report that was presented to the Village Board.
This experience has provided Moore Construction Services with in-depth knowledge of the project
approach. In addition, we recognize that this project involves specialized components—such as utility
extensions and a live-fire training range—that require thoughtful integration with the overall facility,
site, and operations. Our team approaches these elements with an emphasis on early coordination, safety,
regulatory compliance, and long-term functionality. We work closely with the Village, design team, and
stakeholders to ensure all systems are aligned, constructible, and executed with minimal disruption.
Page 122 of 169
15.
PROJECT APPROACH
LIVE-FIRE RANGE
INTEGRATION:
Our approach to the live-fire range
integration focuses on early coordination,
clear delineation of responsibilities, and
ensuring all specialized systems are fully
aligned with building infrastructure. Given
the complexity of range systems and the
likelihood of multiple contractors, we
prioritize proactive collaboration and
dedicated oversight to support proper
installation, performance, and final
commissioning.
A key part of the live-fire range integration is coordinating
with the building’s HVAC systems. Because this project will go
through a public bidding process, there’s a good chance the
range contractor and HVAC contractor will be different teams.
T o ensure both systems tie together properly, we would
recommend a budget line item for a third-party specialist to
assist with overseeing the installation and providing the final
commissioning of the systems
Partner with the design team and specialty consultants
to fully understand performance, safety, and acoustic
requirements
Coordinate structural, mechanical, and ventilation systems to
support proper operation and safety standards
Ensure all materials, assemblies, and systems meet applicable
codes, certifications, and operational requirements
Integrate range construction into the overall sequencing and
phasing plan to maintain safety and quality control
Maintain strict adherence to safety protocols during
construction, recognizing the specialized nature of this
environment

Reconcile estimates with the design team to ensure
alignment between scope, budget, and project expectations
Clearly identify allowances, contingencies, and potential cost
risks within the GMP
Communicate the cost impacts of design changes in real
time and recommend alternatives when appropriate
Engage trade partners early to validate pricing, identify
efficiencies, and confirm constructability
Present a fully detailed GMP that is transparent,
comprehensive, and supported by market-based pricing
Continue to actively manage costs throughout construction
to maintain alignment with the GMP
Our approach to cost management and procurement emphasizes transparency, early collaboration, and disciplined planning. We
work closely with the Village, design team, and trade partners to ensure pricing aligns with project goals and supports informed
decision-making throughout the process.

BUSINESS OF THE BUILDING CONSTRUCTION OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE
MEETING DATE: June 11, 2026
PLACEMENT: Action Item
ITEM TITLE: Committee's Process and Procedures for Exercising its Powers
and Duties with Respect to Police and Fire Department
Construction Projects. (ACTION)
SUBMITTED BY: Brian Sajdak, Attorney
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
With two Village construction projects forthcoming for the Police and Fire Departments,
the Committee should establish its rules, procedures and processes for exercising its
powers and duties with respect to these projects.
Under the Municipal Code, the Committee has the following powers and duties:
1.37(3) POWERS AND DUTIES. The Committee shall play a consultative and
oversight role with respect to any project to build or expansively reconstruct or
remodel a Village building, and shall report directly to the Village Board. In such
capacity it shall:
(a) Consult with the Village and/or any village agency or department which may
have need of construction or remodeling of building facilities in order to assess
need, formulate preliminary project definition and parameters, coordinate
conceptualization of the project, and assist the Village, agency or department in
presenting an overview and making recommendations to the Village Board.
(b) Participate in the project development and planning, including interfacing with
staff and consultants and overseeing engineering, design, and creation of detailed
plans and specifications, and cost assessment and development of financing
options, in order to formulate detailed final recommendations to the Village Board.
(c) Utilize the assistance of Staff, such as the Finance Director, Planner, or Village
Attorney, as may be required.
Given the somewhat broad language used, the Committee should consider and
establish its process and procedures for exercising this authority. Such processes and
procedures may include:
• What matters and decisions on which the Committee believes it should be
considering and making recommendations/reports to the Board.
Page 168 of 169
• Does the Committee want to set a standing meeting interval, or simply be
available at the call of the Chair as matters necessitate. This might change
during the project. For example, at the outset, there may be a need for regular
meetings which eventually give way to meetings which are more space apart or
are not set in stone.
