Module 1: Introduction and Overview of Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)

The Utility Process Management Training videos included in this playlist provide an introduction and overview of subsurface utility engineering (SUE) and offer an in-depth exploration of the 5 phases of CDOT’s utilities management process:

1. Planning
2. Design Phase DSR to FIR - 0% to 30%
3. Design Phase FIR to FOR - 30% to 90%
4. Design Phase Pre-Construction - 90% to PS&E
5. Construction Phase

After watching each video, viewers should be able to:
-Explain how Utility Process Management is the combination of Utility Coordination (UC), Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) and Construction Management (CM).
-Relate the background and history of SUE.
-Explain the role of Utility Coordination throughout the project design and construction phases.
-Recognize the difference between a traditional coordination process and one that is more collaborative; identify the advantages of the new process, and the issues it is intended to address.
-Articulate the overall concepts of assessing and managing risk, critical path, and developing effective work plans.
-Recognize the importance of obtaining accurate data using tools such as SUE.
-Understand a work plan and how to improve the quality of relocation documents.
