AVIATION PROJECT SUMMARY 
Five projects are behind schedule: 
Water System Isolation Valve Upgrade (4 months) - To minimize
potential for operational impacts, the final sets of valves will be
installed after the busy summer travel season. 
Parking System Replacement (3 months)  Advertisement and
negotiations took longer than anticipated; Factory Acceptance
Test was delayed due to a scheduled plant shutdown; and
installation schedule was delayed due to failure of some system
components to pass testing. 
Two New CTE Freight Elevators (12 months) The project is
anticipating a one year delay due to scope changes included in
the redesign efforts, caused by interferences with ongoing Pre-
Conditioned Air Project and Alaska Air Group (AAG) relocation
program.

AVIATION PROJECT SUMMARY, Cont. 
Five projects are behind schedule (cont.): 
Access Control Door Additions (6 months)  The project is being
redesigned and rebid; original proposal only produced one
bidder, at 48% above the Engineer's Cost Estimate. 
Miscellaneous Building Improvements  Airline Realignment (5
months)  Due to a delay in final agreement on gate
assignments for regional aircraft, the project design start was
delayed, causing a delay in anticipated completion. 
Two projects are over budget: 
Two New CTE Freight Elevators ($1.6 million)  The project
forecast is increased due to the redesign efforts (discussed in
schedule delay). 
5

AVIATION PROJECT SUMMARY, Cont. 
Two projects are over budget (cont.): 
Vertical Conveyance Modernization ($2.1 million)  Total project
cost has increased due to several factors, including: relocation of
the TSA Checkpoint; additional RMM costs associated with the
demolition and construction of a new non-sterile bypass corridor;
replacing the C-23 take-away baggage belt; and increasing the
escalation rate from 3 to 3.5%. 



6

AVIATION PROJECT SUMMARY, Cont. 
Cost of Construction Growth: 
Terminal Escalator Modernization (25.7%)  Significant cost
growth due to: 
Electrical upgrades to address the condition of 40 year old
wiring and electrical panels.
Aesthetic upgrades to the escalators, associated cladding, and
passageway under escalators.
Re-phasing of work to lessen the impacts on passenger
circulation and airport operations, and address unanticipated
security concerns.
Varying site conditions impacting hoisting plans for the
escalators, escalator pit conditions/alignment to accommodate
new and wider units, and miscellaneous MEP items. 

7

SEAPORT PROJECT SUMMARY 
Two Projects had second quarter schedule variances 
T-18 Pile Cap Repair Pilot Project repairs are taking longer and
costing more than expected. 
T-5 crane cable reel installation has been postponed by the tenant
until 2013. 



8

CORPORATE PROJECT SUMMARY 
Three projects with a new reportable schedule variance this quarter: 
CUSS Kiosk Enhancement  New kiosks were installed on
schedule but project change requests to update the kiosk manager
and purchase a test kiosk were approved to improve maintenance
capability. This will result in a 3-month delay for project completion. 
Maintenance Planning & Scheduling  Software was installed on
schedule but Aviation Maintenance and Marine Maintenance are
evaluating the need for additional licenses that will delay project
completion by 3 months. 
Time Clock  Vendor was unable to deliver software that functioned
in our environment per contract. The project team is evaluating
options for moving forward.
