Evaluate the contractor's overall performance The study was conducted for the City of Eden Prairie.

There were good outcomes; although early on, it wasn’t clear that this study would be successful. The team needs to be kept focused and on task at all times. During the first two days, too much time was spent on the LRT project. Several team members complained that they had other work to do, why were we discussing things that we couldn’t solve anyway? As the leader, I expected Howard to better inform the team about daily expectations and keep the team focused.

Team member Keith Kunst from Arcadis did a great job.

Would you engage the contractor's services again? Yes
