The only comment I would make is about mash efficiency in Beersmith - I see yours is reading 94%. Beersmith 2 is a bit funny in that you can't directly modify the mash efficiency number, which is actually what I find easier to use than total brewhouse efficiency when calculating recipes and monitoring my brewday. So I prefer to set my trub loss in the equipment section to zero and then just add the expected loss to my batch volume instead. Doing this artificially makes the mash efficiency and total efficiency the same (unless you are adding any fermentables after the boil to the fermenter).

The thread below explains it better, especially the third post by @chiller, where there is a pdf attached. It discusses the two ways to set it up, and you can decide for yourself.

Not sure if your grain bill can hold that hop schedule... Maybe bump up the grains, looks like an ipa and not a dipa
