NorthSTAR Program 
Performance Metrics 
Approach: 
Operational impacts inevitable, but manageable. 
Project construction plans will mitigate impacts to the maximum extent possible and create baseline
from which performance metrics are measured. 
Port, AAG and Concessionaires will collaborate on plans and understand impacts. 
Issues and Risks reporting identify Port, AAG and Concessions challenges in balancing scope, schedule,
budget, facility availability and operational impacts. 
Reporting will be organized to report the following hypothetical metrics examples, which will evolve: 
Program / Project Progress       Actual          Planned /
Forecast 
Cashflow (for reporting period)        $x,xxx,xxx          $x,xxx,xxx

NS NSAT Renovation & NSTS Lobbies 
CIP: C800556 - NS NSAT Renovation & NSTS Lobbies 
Accomplishments: 
Completed AAG "Northwest Sense of Place" workshop. 
Preliminary 15-gate conceptual layouts submitted and reviewed by Port and AAG. 
Construction schedules developed to reflect impact of 2, 3 and 4 phase options. 
Held 11 conceptual design technical workshops during the week of April 11. 
Held initial Port and AAG sustainable design workshops. 
Progress: 
Design Team conducting site investigations of existing building conditions. 
Continuing to revise construction phasing options with AAG. 
IATA Level of Service study underway. 
Risks: 
Ability to minimize disruption to Airport operations (AAG & concessions) during construction. 
Level of Services (IATA) rating for passengers may be lower than what would be deemed acceptable.

CIP: C800547 - NS Concourse C Vertical Circulation 
Accomplishments: 
90% Design review completed. 
Progress: 
Continuing to work on Bid Documents. 
Conducting extensive constructability reviews with project stakeholders due to operational impacts. 
Issues: 
Review of the Pros/Cons of acceleration of Gate C2 Elevators construction. Potential operational
advantages but also additional costs.

Main Terminal Improvements 
CIP: C800545 - NS Main Terminal Improvements 
Accomplishments: 
Determination made that facility planning effort is required prior to start of design. 
Progress: 
Solicit facility planner consultant. 
Seek commission authorization for design effort. 
Issues: 
Coordination with the NSAT design concept to ensure a cohesive look/feel. 
Coordination with AAG & TSA on Checkpoint 5 reconfiguration. 
Considering adding scope - connection of Zone 7 ticket counters to C1 baggage system. 
Risk: 
Least defined scope relative to the program budget.

NS Refurbish Baggage System 
CIP: C800555 - NS Refurbish Baggage System 
Accomplishments: 
90% design submittal received and in review. 
Final failure analysis resulted in scope addition to project for C88 improvements. AAG
recommended execution. 
Progress: 
Developing C92 Failure analysis per AAG request. 
Seeking commission authorization for Construction. 
Issues: 
C88 refurbishment scope must be revisited for schedule phasing & constructability. 
Risk: 
IATA Level of Service study results may impact scope of project and airport's overall
baggage system long term goals. 
Some refurbishment requires system shutdown which may have operational impacts.

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
