Excellence in Partnering Winner: Teichert Construction for “Colfax I-80 Truck Climbing Lane - 03-1 F4 004”


Te partnering process enabled


Teichert Construction and Caltrans to develop a trust-based, team environment that was key to the success of the Colfax-I-80 Truck Climbing Lane project. Te project involved construction


of a 3-mile truck-climbing lane, the widening and replacement of Cape Horn Undercrossing, and a host of


related improvements along eastbound I-80 near Colfax. During the three years of construction, the project team overcame challenges, from traffic and weather issues to a major bridge repair issue and a massive slope failure that required an unplanned major repair. Early on, partnering brought


together the entire team for open discussions about the scope of work and other issues that might impact the budget. Using the resolution ladder formalized by the partnering process for project management dispute resolution, the team overcame every obstacle along the way. Perseverance, communication, and


teamwork driven by the partnering approach allowed Teichert to complete the project on schedule and under budget. Also selected as finalists in this category


were: Myers Rados, A Joint Venture for “I-215 Barton Road Interchange Recon- struction Project” and Flatiron West Inc. for “Route 210 Roadway Rehabilitation.” 
