Greeting to all our ECA members! Given currently realities, we have had a strong summer at the ECA supporting members in their pursuit of construction excellence. Thank you to all our members for their care and diligence in creating COVID safety on their sites for these past 6 months. We have not had a major site outbreak and have been affirmed and thanked as an industry nationally by the federal government for our exceptional performance in this regard.

I am writing today to inform you of two exciting education offerings that the ECA has coming this fall. I would like to encourage your utilization of this unique ECA training for your staff. Your people are a great asset and they need input to continue their contributions to your success with their personal growth and development. These two offerings are our first ever Emerging Leaders Institute (ELI), and our updated offering of Digital Project Delivery (DPD). We have the highest level of Construction - Emerging Leader - Training available in our partnership with FMI with this ELI (Emerging Leaders Institute). Many large North American construction firms have put hundreds of their employees through this training. Your firm can benefit as well. The four-day course is an exceptional value with access to the Job Grant.

Our DPD (Digital Project Delivery) course can be a key element of change management for the utilization of technology which is only possible with all stakeholder's engagement in modernization. If you are going to have your firm participate you may benefit from having some of your key team members engaged in the discussions and training of the DPD process. Both courses are now accepting registrations and may be of interest to you or your key team members.

I very much hope that you, and/or your appropriate team members can join us at these phenomenal courses. I also encourage you to share them with any leaders in your networks who may find these offerings valuable to themselves or their teams. Thank you for your ongoing support.

Sincerely,
John McNicoll

SHIFT 2020: Build Back Better - Building a Purpose-Driven Organization

WHEN & WHERE?

October 29th, 2020
8:30 AM - 11:00 AM
Virtual Event
 

SHIFT brings together various levels of the building community to meet each other, learn from one another, and most importantly, to challenge the paradigms that exist in our industry.

Building from our first five SHIFT Conferences - "Challenging Collaboration" (2015), "Transforming Teams" (2016),  "Merging Mindsets" (2017), "Critical Choices" (2018), and "Inspiring Innovation" (2019) , SHIFT 2020 will focus on unleashing the power of purpose in both organizations, and in your work. 

The way in which we do business is changing.  Great businesses have learned that leveraging people's gifts, passions and purpose can indeed make for a more well-rounded, more sustainable and more profitable business.  As we look to build back better after this pandemic, how can individuals and businesses look to leverage their teams, their knowledge and their purpose to create impact and value?  Join our Keynote Speaker Afdhel Aziz, Founder and CEO of Conspiracy of Love, as he dives fully into this topic, followed by an in-depth panel with Afdhel, along with Tim Coldwell (President - Chandos), Eladia Smoke (Principal Architect, Owner - Smoke Architecture Inc) and Marcia Nozick (Founder & CEO - EMBERS).  The panel will touch on issues like the impact designers and contractors can have when they partner with social enterprises, the ROI of leading with moral courage, and how sustainability and profit can work together.

CIQS National Webinar - Accuracy of Construction Budget Estimates - Speaker Spotlight

As you are likely aware, on Wednesday, July 29th Edmonton City Council approved a Mask & Face Coverings Bylaw which took effect on Saturday, August 1st.  Please see the below on how this bylaw may affect your business and construction site.
 

City of Edmonton Mask Bylaw - Construction Interpretation
 
The overall rules that apply to businesses are:

1. This bylaw is for indoor space only and,
2. Only applies if the public can get access to the indoor space or you are interacting with the public

Full details of the bylaw, including exemptions are listed here.

For our workplace and offices 
 
Workplace and Office protocols would include front reception as the public can walk into the space.  However, it does not affect your private workspace, meeting rooms, etc. which is not freely open to the public.

For Construction Sites
 
Construction sites are not open to the public so the bylaw does not apply.  For interior renovations the site itself would not fall under the bylaw, but if workers must enter the common areas to move around the building then they would be subject to the bylaw.

If you have any further questions or site-specific matters, please feel free to reach out to us and we will make further inquiries.

For further information on site protocols related to COVID-19, please see our COVID info page here.  We wish you and your businesses all the best during these summer months.

Registration Opens Today at 10:00AM

Understanding the importance of ECA golf to many members, who use the opportunity to network, host key clients and support staff development, the ECA team has worked diligently the last several weeks with our partner courses to offer golf to ECA members in 2020. ECA staff also engaged golfers from 2019 in a survey regarding golf days this year. We are pleased to report that over 80% of respondents indicated their desire to move forward.

Due to the restrictions of gatherings pre and post golf we are pricing our Golf Days accordingly.  Our goal, as always is to engage our members, provide value and keep you connected.

ECA Golf Days include the following:

• Golf Days will be limited to 120 golfers.
• Golfers will have spaced arrival times and tee times (in three blocks from 8am - 1pm). There will be no shotgun start.
• Breakfast will not be served.  In addition, no dining room banquet or group gathering will be held.  Participants will instead receive a box lunch and a drink ticket before or after their round.
• Safe prize dispersal will be held post-event.
• Shallow holes and no pin contact.
• All sponsors must maintain social distancing.

When registering your team, in the notes section please include the following:

1) The first and last names all registrants (if you do not know them yet, please indicate this)

2) Please indicate whether anyone in your group has a CPGA card (active)

3) Please indicate whether your group would like to golf together (as a twosome or a foursome) or separately (Please note, all golfers must be registered for the same tee time window if you wish to golf in the same foursome together)

Registrations will be taken on a first come, first served basis until the event is full.  Additional members will go onto a waiting list, and will be contacted if golf spots open up

Paving The Way

The construction industry employed approximately 3.5 per cent of Alberta women in 2018, according to numbers from a BuildForce Canada report entitled Construction and Maintenance Looking Forward, Highlights 2019-2028.

According to the report, women represent approximately 15 per cent of the province's construction labour force. Of this amount, some 30 per cent work directly on construction projects. The remaining 70 per cent work primarily in administration and management-related occupations

The Owl - Building permits down again in May

After an already weak year in 2019, Alberta's construction sector has been hit hard by COVID-19 and the oil price crash.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, monthly investment in building construction* in Alberta was down $328.4 million (-19.5 per cent) in April compared to February.

EY - Megatrends 2020

The world changed in March 2020. Almost overnight, the COVID-19 pandemic strained health care systems to the breaking point, put much of the global economy on an indefinite hiatus and radically reshaped societal norms and interactions. 

For businesses everywhere, these events are undermining established assumptions while catalyzing new models and approaches

City of Edmonton

Are you interested in learning more about some of the City-led projects happening around Edmonton?

Check out the City''s interactive and mobile-friendly map at https://building.edmonton.ca. You''ll find details about the project schedule, phase of delivery and budget on projects such as LRT, Yellowhead Trail, Muttart and others across the city.

The City currently has 278 active capital projects featured on the Building Edmonton Capital Projects Map, 92% of which are on budget and 78% on schedule

Parking Rules for New Homes and Businesses

"At the June 23, 2020 City Council Public Hearing (item 3.22), City Council voted to enable Open Option Parking city-wide effective July 2, 2020. Open Option Parking means that minimum on-site parking requirements have been removed from Edmonton's Zoning Bylaw, allowing developers, homeowners and businesses to decide how much on-site parking to provide on their properties based on their particular operations, activities or lifestyle."

Alberta Infrastructure Act and 20-Year Strategic Capital Plan

"Our government is preparing to bring forward the Alberta Infrastructure Act, which is intended to serve as a legislated governance framework for capital planning in Alberta. The Alberta Infrastructure Act supports the government's commitment to transparent and rigorous capital funding decisions, and will help Albertans better understand how their taxpayer money is spent on capital infrastructure. In addition, the Alberta Infrastructure Act will also legislate the release and regular review of a 20-Year Strategic Capital Plan."

Alberta''s Recovery Plan

Building Core Infrastructure

This year, Alberta will see its largest-ever investment in infrastructure. We''re spending more than $10 billion on projects across, creating more than 32,000 jobs.

With this plan, we''re creating immediate jobs and building communities for a bigger and brighter future. We will need roads, schools, hospitals, highways, housing and other public buildings to be ready as we recover.

By investing in these projects now, we''re laying the foundation for thousands of good-paying private sector jobs and creating spin off benefits for Alberta - including making communities more attractive to investors and employers looking to relocate.

In a major new initiative, we will launch a series of large-scale projects this summer at a cost of at least $600 million. These projects are designed to improve long-term productivity and create at least 2,500 jobs.

In addition, we are:

Investing $1.5 billion in the Keystone XL pipeline to support economic recovery and 7,000 jobs

Issuing $1 billion in grants to clean up thousands of oil and gas sites, creating 5,300 jobs

Accelerating capital maintenance and renewal projects to create 5,000+ jobs immediately

Investing $476 million in technology and innovation to reduce emissions and position Alberta as a global sustainable energy leader

Increasing municipal infrastructure funding by 30% this fiscal year to support shovel-ready projects and create immediate new jobs

Funding 69 municipal road and bridge improvement projects through STIP, creating 480 jobs

Funding 55 water and wastewater projects, creating 1,300 jobs

Providing funding for the Ermineskin Cree Nation to Ponoka regional water pipeline tie-in project

Making communities more flood and drought resistant, funding 16 projects and creating 275 jobs

Making our environmental regulatory system more effective by reducing red tape and speeding up approvals

Leveraging federal funding to participate as full partners in cost-shared infrastructure projects

Planning to use the Canada Infrastructure Bank to help rebuild Alberta and diversify our economy

City of Edmonton - Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative.

The Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative is a multi-year comprehensive overhaul of our current Zoning Bylaw that includes rethinking how, what and why the City regulates in terms of zoning and land development.  

Renewing Edmonton's Zoning Bylaw provides the opportunity to strategically align our city-building tools from the top down - from strategy to regulation - and ensure all Edmontonians and city builders have the necessary tools to build the city envisioned in ConnectEdmonton and The City Plan.

To date, the Zoning Bylaw Renewal has focused on project initiation and foundational engagement activities. As the initiative moves into the next phase, it has been divided into four projects: 

• Creating a New Zoning Bylaw

• Rezoning land to align with the New Zoning Bylaw

• Providing Technology for a new Zoning Bylaw interface, and improving the on-line customer experience for planning and development services

• Ensuring a smooth transition to the New Zoning Bylaw and Technology through thoughtful Implementation.

Stakeholder Engagement 

• Various stakeholder workshops, surveys, drop-in sessions and meetings occurred in late 2018 and in 2019 and we thank everyone who participated in these engagements. The Zoning Bylaw Team is using information gathered from these activities, along with the results of research and the direction in City policies, to draft a series of Discussion Papers. The Discussion Papers explore various topics and zones for the new Zoning Bylaw, and provide the preliminary thinking and direction for the regulatory framework. These drafts will be circulated with key stakeholders as a part of a larger stakeholder and public engagement initiative. Please stay tuned for opportunities to engage and provide feedback on the Discussion Papers. 

Want to Learn More?

• More details on the Initiative and projects can be found on the Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative website. The Zoning Bylaw team will continue to add content to the website as the initiative moves forward. 
   
• You can also subscribe to the Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative mailing list to stay informed and email the Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative team at  zoningbylawrenewal@edmonton.ca.

The Owl

There were 381,900 fewer jobs in Alberta last month than 12 months earlier (-16 per cent). 

Both full-time and part-time jobs disappeared, with the number of full-time-positions falling by 261,700 (-14 per cent) and the number of part-time jobs decreasing by 120,300 (-29 per cent).

The pain was felt across the economy with jobs disappearing in all 16 of the major sectors tracked by Statistics Canada.

Greetings ECA members and industry stakeholders,

Due to an unexpected and immediate shutdown of our current BuildWorks service provider, the ECA is transitioning to a new BuildWorks platform today. Although we were planning for this transition, it's happening much earlier than we expected.  We apologize for any inconvenience. 

The purpose of the change is to update our infrastructure and improve the user experience, clearing the way for more enhancements over the coming months. 

What you need to do

There are some immediate steps you need to take in order to continue accessing construction information through BuildWorks.  You will receive an email from BuildWorks at 6pm on Sunday, April 5th inviting you to set your password prior to logging in.  If you do not/did not receive an email, please follow the below instructions to login for the first time.

1) Go to the login page at https://buildworkscanada.com/login/
2) Click the "Forgot Password" button
3) Enter the email address associated with your BuildWorks Canada account.
(This should be the same email in which you received this message)

Once your password is updated, you will be able to enter the new BuildWorks Canada platform.  When you login, you will find all current project information available, though some of your profile information may have to be re-entered.

Transitioning to the new platform

We realize that this sudden transition is less than ideal, and we''re here to make sure the disruption to your business is kept to a minimum.  As such, please feel free to make use of the following tools:

1. Should you have general questions about the change please CLICK HERE to see our BuildWorks Platform FAQ page to answer any common questions you may have about the new platform.
    
2. Should you have general questions about the platform functionality, please CLICK HERE to view a series of quick and easy training videos to help you navigate some of the changes to the platform.

Thank you in advance for understanding, we appreciate your support and patience during this transition.

Sincerely,
John McNicoll

Alberta Transportation Expedited Tendering Process for 2020

1. We are considering advertising tenders for a shorter period (1-2 weeks shorter time frame, for new tenders that we would be putting out starting in mid-April). Most tenders are currently advertised for 4 weeks. This would be a 1-2 week shorter time frame. If needed and requested by the bidders, we can still extend the closing date

Breaking Ground 2020 - In Pursuit of the Silver Lining

In early April, the Province of Alberta announced a $410 million investment into road maintenance and renewal projects that will help create thousands of jobs and provide immediate benefits to communities across the province.

"Investing in road construction and maintenance represents excellent value for taxpayers," says Ronald Glen, CEO, Alberta Roadbuilders and Heavy Construction Association (ARHCA). "Our province's highway and roadway network is a critical piece of infrastructure that needs to be maintained and preserved."

In Support of Harper Hanki

A Message from John (R3 Demolition) & Amanda Hanki

Our daughter, Harper Hanki has Spinal Muscular Atrophy - Type 1.

**SMA is a disease that robs people of physical strength by affecting the motor nerve cells in the spinal cord, taking away the ability to walk, eat or breathe. It is the number one genetic cause of death for infants.

She is currently on a treatment that is approved and funded in Alberta called "Spinraza". It is administered via lumbar puncture every 4 months for the rest of their life at a cost of $125,000 per dose.

If you need to contact us for more information on how you can help, we can be reached at johnh@r3demo.com or by phone at 587-985-3367.

Bird And Stuart Olson Join Forces

The ECA is pleased to congratulate two longtime GC members, Bird Construction and Stuart Olson on their recent merger.  The combined new entity will have a workforce of 5,000 people, established presence in several Canadian markets, pro forma revenue of approximately $2.5 billion, an aggregate backlog of greater than $3.0 billion, plus more than $1.0 billion of pending backlog.

Both companies have a long history at the ECA, particularly Stuart Olson.  Stuart Olson himself was on the ECA Board of Directors for 6 years, becoming President in 1953.  Al Olson was on the ECA Board for 7 years, becoming President in 1971.  Finally, Mike Olson served on the ECA Board as a Director (with OML Construction) about a decade ago.  We wish all parties involved all the best as these companies join forces.

City of Edmonton - Remote Video Inspection

The City is pleased to announce that permit holders can now request remote video inspections (RVI) for building and trade permits (HVAC, plumbing, gas and electrical) via the Self Serve portal. 

RVI is available for inspections of occupied spaces within occupied residential and commercial locations. This includes, but is not limited to projects such as interior alterations, basement developments, additions without a separate entrance, and occupied commercial locations where distancing or other safety protocols cannot be met. RVI enables virtual inspections through connected cellular mobile devices: one operated at the building location by the permit holder and the other by a Safety Codes Officer at a different location.

Re-inspection of corrected safety codes deficiencies from an earlier inspection may be conducted using the Verification of Compliance (VOC) method. This method provides evidence of corrected deficiencies through photos and a signed attestation form to the City. These can also now also be requested using the Self Serve portal.  

In-person inspections continue to be required for unoccupied residential and commercial construction sites, most utility service disruptions in occupied homes and businesses, and exterior structures (eg. decks). Current building permit and inspection request intake processing time estimates are available on our online dashboard.

For more information, please visit the City's Safety Codes Inspection Services webpage.

Message from the ECA Board Chair

Welcome to Summer and Greetings from the ECA Chair and your Board of Directors.

I trust this message finds all our members and their loved ones in good health and in good spirits. The 2020 construction season is well underway after a challenging start and while many of us are still dealing with the impacts of COVID-19 personally, financially and psychologically, there are many things we as an industry, Edmontonians and Albertans should be proud of. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to rethink how we conduct business and has possibly forever changed our day to day, face to face interactions. The pandemic has disrupted so much of the economy and our way of life that during these times it can be hard to find positives. I personally am a positive person and I am extremely proud and fortunate to be part of our industry in a great city, a determined province, and the best country in the world. Our city and provincial leaders were diligent in responding to the needs of our province amidst such challenging times.

Our industry is very much relationship driven. Relationships are forged through our people. Over the past few months your people, your staff and your future leaders continued to build and nurture the relationships that have made our industry and our association as strong as it is. Throughout the course of the past few months our member firms and construction professionals have demonstrated the ability to rise up to the challenges of the pandemic and respond with overwhelmingly positive and ingenious ways to keep our jobsites open, our workplaces safe and our people healthy.

Together our General Contractors, Subtrades, Suppliers, Owners, Consultants & Engineers united on numerous fronts, supported each other, lent a helping hand, openly shared information and put healthy competitiveness aside to come together for the greater good and the preservation of our livelihoods. I have witnessed humbleness and humility, fear and frustration; as well as comradery and compassion throughout every aspect of our Industry. Never have we relied on each other so much, while breaking down the invisible barriers and demonstrating the collaborative and unified spirit of our member firms.

This pandemic reminded us that we are vulnerable, yet proved that we are resilient, determined, and thoughtful. Many of our projects never skipped a beat while adapting to a new normal. Our project superintendents, craft labour and HSE professionals worked diligently to protect our greatest assets which is our people.

I personally would like to thank all of our member firms and your teams for demonstrating that our industry is not just one of the most important in our nation, but one of the most versatile and adaptable in the face of a crisis. I also would like to thank our Executive Director, John McNicoll, and his amazing team at the Edmonton Construction Association for their tremendous work and dedication as they deliver the best in class service to member firms. Last but not least, I would like to thank the 2020 Board of Directors who continue to represent and lead their respective areas of industry.

In closing, I wish you all a safe & healthy summer and prosperous times ahead.

Warmest of Regards,

Trevor Doucette 2020 ECA Board Chair

Owners Forum - July 9th

On Thursday, July 9^th, the ECA was pleased to welcome over 40 owners, developers, architects, engineers and contractors to our first in-person Owners Forum meeting of 2020 at the Westin Edmonton.  Additionally, several others engaged in the meeting virtually.  Agenda items included: a developer update from Leadership Team member Peter Jonkman (Edgar Development), an OHS & Contractor Safety Management presentation from the U of A, presentations from the City of Edmonton (Chelle Busch) and Alberta Infrastructure (Cyndee Evans) on their Vendor Performance Management Programs, updates related to the continuing work on the Delivery Method Assessment Tool, and current reality discussions related to COVID-19.  All presentations and updates can be found on the Owners Forum website at www.ownersforum.ca.

As always, thank you to the Owners Forum Leadership Team for their efforts, special thanks to Andrew Sharman (U of A) for Chairing the meeting, and to all those leaders who attended.  Finally, a big thanks to DIRTT and Eagle Builders for their continued sponsorship of the event.  Our next Owners Forum meeting is scheduled for October.

FORUM 2.0

The goal of the Owners Forum has always been to bring together public and private owners in a collaborative
setting with other industry stakeholders. The initiative has been ongoing for the past few years. Already, three priority
initiatives have been identified: vendor performance management principles; delivery method assessment; and BIM.

This year marks a new evolution in the Owners Forum with the launch of a dedicated website, ownersforum.ca. "We reached the point where members now understand the value of getting together and sharing their Forum 2.0 New website broadens reach of Owners Forum expertise to gain real-time feedback," explains Matt Schellenberger, director of corporate development, Edmonton Construction Association.

WCB Training-on-the-Job Program

WCB's training-on-the-job (TOJ) program is designed to help people who are no longer able to go back to their regular job and employer. Workers who are left with a permanent injury are often not able to return to work at the same level of pay as before.

In these situations, WCB will compensate the workers for any earnings loss. This is called an Economic Loss Payment (ELP). The human and financial impact is significant. In many cases, workers receiving an ELP are not able to find employment and their income is significantly impacted.

A quick update from Alberta Construction Association

1. ACA has been talking with Larry Kaumeyer (Premier''s Office) and hopes to have a follow-up meeting on how to treat COVID costs in GOA contracts and procurements.  Hopefully will have some news for you next week.

2. ACA is launching a social media campaign to promote how industry successfully managed COVID.  I''ll send a separate email requesting your assistance

3.  GOA asked ACA for a supportive quote regarding last week''s Infrastructure $ announcement. We did without commenting on COVID

4. ACA is preparing a response to the GOA Infrastructure Act, for early August.

5. Red Tape Reduction is planning subcommittee meetings in the summer. Will update as I can.

6. ATCC, GC Alliance and ACA wrote Service AB Minister indicating our desire to be a nominating body fro prompt pay adjudicators. I am trying to recruit AUMA to join us to bring an owner''s perspective.

7. WCB has asked ITF for response to how to treat COVID claims. Here is ACA''s response:

• agree with cost relief applied in all cases where COVID 19 test is positive and the work related test is met
• agree with system wide application for claims adjudication based on the 2 scenarios below
• agree that the list of extraordinary items below be adjudicated for each individual claim

The Owl - Less bad is the new good

The main takeaway from the Labour Force Survey results released on Friday is the number of jobs in Alberta increased in June by 91,600, but we were still 241,100 below where we were in February.

The same story played out across Canada with every province recording an increase in employment in June, but not nearly enough to make up for the jobs lost as a result of the pandemic and oil price crash.

Digital Project Delivery ("DPD") has been an emerging concept for building lifecycle activities for over 5 years. In the last 2 years, Alberta has been leading the transition in Canada towards DPD through the release of Owner requirements for digital handover by Alberta Infrastructure and the University of Alberta. With a growing desire to deliver projects digitally and significant advancement in leveraging data throughout a building's lifecycle, there are opportunities for all stakeholders to contribute to this digital process. DPD allows for better designed, built and operated building assets. It also means more profit for everyone. 

The ECA is supporting this transition through a Digital Project Delivery Curriculum. Through the leadership of Holo-Blok architecture and Edmonton's leading industry experts, the program will prepare all stakeholders for the part they play in the digital process.

Online Agenda: 

• Day One | September 23rd & 24th 2020, 8:30 AM - 12:30 PM (Both Days)

Reporting COVID-19 cases to OHS

The following information is an overview of Alberta Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) incident reporting requirements with respect to operating during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Reporting to OHS

• a worker is confirmed to have COVID-19 and the employer has reason to believe that the exposure occurred at work;
• a worker is exposed to a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19 and the work site did not follow the rules, procedures and guidance related to COVID-19 protection, or the COVID-19 controls in place have failed; or
• any work site with a confirmed COVID-19 outbreak.

Market Sounding Invitation

Cost Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Construction Projects for Alberta Infrastructure

WSP is conducting a market sounding on behalf of Alberta Infrastructure (AI) and we would like to invite you to participate.    

Through this market sounding dialogue AI is seeking to gather the construction industry's feedback as it relates to COVID-19 impacts on construction costs.

In particular, AI is seeking WSP to quantify the overall cost impacts through evaluating the effects of productivity and hours lost from social distancing, PPE guidelines, supply chain disruptions, and other pandemic-related factors. The results of the market sounding will inform an appropriate risk premium factor for forthcoming AI projects.  

The market sounding will be conducted as a 1-hour conference call during the period from July 28th to August 7^th 2020.  Your interest and participation will be greatly appreciated by AI, please respond to Razi.Chagla@wsp.com and Mark.Sagaria@wsp.com (CC'd) to schedule a call. An additional briefing note with a questionnaire will be provided in advance of the market sounding conference call.

Thank you,
