TITLE: Approval of On -Call Professional Services Agreements for Civil
Engineering Services
ABSTRACT:
The majority of the City of Newport Beach's (City's) Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
require the services of professional Civil Engineers for planning, design and construction
support services. Accordingly, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these
professional services and requests the City Council's approval to enter into five On -Call
Professional Services Agreements with the following companies: Dudek, MKN &
Associates, Hunsaker & Associates, Psomas, and Tait & Associates. Each Professional
Services Agreement would be for a term of three years and a total not -to -exceed
contracting authority amount of $300,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because
this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly;
and
b) Approve On -Call Professional Services Agreements with Dudek, MKN & Associates,
Hunsaker & Associates, Psomas and Tait & Associates for professional Civil
Engineering planning, design and construction support services, with each agreement
being for a term of three -years and a total not -to -exceed amount of $300,000, and
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreements on a form approved by
the City Attorney.
DISCUSSION:
The City's proposed CIP budget anticipates more than $62 million in Parks, Harbors, &
Beaches, Streets and Drainage, and Water and Wastewater improvement projects
through individual CIP projects starting in FY 2022-23. Almost all of these projects require
some level of Engineering, Architecture, Landscape Architecture and/or Construction
Management Services. In addition to in-house engineering and construction staff, the
City relies on a host of professional consultants.

The City traditionally contracts out a large portion of necessary engineering services, and
for larger projects separate requests for proposals (RFPs) are requested from the
engineering community. However, for the smaller projects, the formal RFP is not cost
effective or time efficient for the City or the consulting community. To address these types
of projects, the City has turned to on -call professional services contracts as a more
efficient way to accomplish the smaller projects, which usually combines City staff and
on -call firms' staff. Over the past five years, engineering firms with existing on -call
agreements have provided design services for approximately $1.5 million.
In September 2021, staff requested statement of qualifications (SOQs) to provide on -call
Civil Engineering Planning, Design and Construction Support services in order to replace
the existing consultant group of on -call consultants, set to expire shortly. 32 firms
submitted SOQs to the City. Based on the submittals, staff requested on -call proposals
from 12 of those firms, of which, 11 submitted responses and were reviewed in detail.
The following is a ranking of the firms submitted:

The City's proposal review team consisted of three staff members from the Public Works
Department. Using a qualification -based selection process, the proposals were evaluated
by the review team independently. Proposal evaluations were based on the consultant's
understanding of the scope of work, experience, qualifications, and availability of staff.
While many firms met the minimum qualifications outlined in the request for proposal, the
top five consultants were selected by the review team as the most qualified and
responsive firms. All five of these firms have successfully completed similar services for
other local agencies and their billing rates are consistent with industry standards and their
peers.
Staff is requesting approval of five separate on -call Professional Services Agreements
with Dudek, MKN & Associates, Hunsaker & Associates, Psomas, and Tait & Associates
for professional Civil Engineering planning, design and construction support services.
The term for each of these agreements is three years and they are set to expire on
June 30, 2025. Projects will be assigned on a rotating basis to the on -call Civil
Engineering firms based on their expertise or depending on the City's requirements and
the project type.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact related to this item as the award of the on -call contract
does not create an obligation to expend funds. Funding for the work done under these
on -call contracts will be expensed to individual projects within the City's approved
Operating and Capital Improvement Program budgets.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not
result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment)
and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA
Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
NOTICING:
The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of
the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).

relate (directly or indirectly) to any breach of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, or the negligent or reckless acts, errors and/or omissions, or the willful
misconduct, of Consultant in performance of the Services provided under this
Agreement including, without limitation, defects in workmanship or materials or
Consultant's presence or activities conducted on the Project (including the negligent,
reckless, and/or willful acts, errors and/or omissions of Consultant's principals, officers,
agents, employees, vendors, suppliers, subconsultants, subcontractors, anyone
employed directly or indirectly by any of them or for whose acts they may be liable, or
any or all of them.
9.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to
require Consultant to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim to the extent
arising from the negligence, reckless or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties.
Nothing in this indemnity shall be construed as authorizing any award of attorneys' fees
in any action on or to enforce the terms of this Agreement. This indemnity shall apply to
all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The
policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided
by the Consultant.

and Consultant is not an agent or employee of City. The manner and means of
conducting the Work are under the control of Consultant, except to the extent they are
limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No
civil service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its
employees. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for
Consultant or any of Consultant's employees or agents, to be the agents or employees
of City. Consultant shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of
performing the Work, provided that Consultant is in compliance with the terms of this
DUDEK Page 5 7.8

Consultant as to the details of the performance of the Work or to exercise a measure of
control over Consultant shall mean only that Consultant shall follow the desires of City
with respect to the results of the Services.
11. COOPERATION
Consultant agrees to work closely and cooperate fully with City's designated
Project Administrator and any other agencies that may have jurisdiction or interest in the
Work to be performed. City agrees to cooperate with the Consultant on the Project.

City for all acts and omissions of any subcontructors. Nothing in this Agreement shall
create any contractual relationship between City and any subcontructors nor shall it
create any obligation on the part of City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies
due to any such subcontructors other than as otherwise required by law. City is an
intended beneficiary of any Work performed by the subcontructors for purposes of
establishing a duty of care between the subcontructors and City. Except as specifically

shall have the sole right to use such materials in its discretion without further
compensation to Consultant or any other party. Additionally, all material posted in
cyberspace by Consultant, its officers, employees, agents and subcontructors, in the
course of implementing this Agreement, shall become the exclusive property of City,

Consultant. Further, any and all liability arising out of changes made to Consultant's
deliverables under this Agreement by City or persons other than Consultant is waived
against Consultant, and City assumes full responsibility for such changes unless City

twenty-four inch (24") by thirty-six inch (36°) paper size. Consultant shall provide to City
digital `As -Built' drawings in both AutoCAD and Adobe PDF file format within thirty (30)
days after finalization of the Project.
18. OPINION OF COST
Any opinion of the construction cost prepared by Consultant represents the
Consultant's judgment as a design professional and is supplied for the general guidance
of City. Since Consultant has no control over the cost of labor and material, or over
competitive bidding or market conditions, Consultant does not guarantee the accuracy
of such opinions as compared to Consultant or Consultant bids or actual cost to City.

communications that result from the Services in this Agreement, shall be kept
confidential unless City expressly authorizes in writing the release of information.

7-11
22. WITHHOLDINGS
City may withhold payment to Consultant of any disputed sums until satisfaction
of the dispute with respect to such payment. Such withholding shall not be deemed to
constitute a failure to pay according to the terms of this Agreement. Consultant shall
not discontinue Work as a result of such withholding. Consultant shall have an
immediate right to appeal to the City Manager or designee with respect to such disputed
sums. Consultant shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate
of return that City earned on its investments during the time period, from the date of
withholding of any amounts found to have been improperly withheld.
23. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
In the event of errors or omissions that are due to the negligence or professional
inexperience of Consultant which result in expense to City greater than what would
have resulted if there were not errors or omissions in the Work accomplished by
Consultant, the additional design, construction and/or restoration expense shall be
borne by Consultant. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit City's rights under the
law or any other sections of this Agreement.
24. CITY'S RIGHT TO EMPLOY OTHER CONSULTANTS
City reserves the right to employ other Consultants in connection with the
Project.
25. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

conformance with the Government Claims Act. To the extent that

28. TERMINATION
28.1 In the event that either party fails or refuses to perform any of the
provisions of this Agreement at the time and in the manner required, that party shall be
deemed in default in the performance of this Agreement. If such default is not cured
within a period of two (2) calendar days, or if more than two (2) calendar days are
reasonably required to cure the default and the defaulting party fails to give adequate
assurance of due performance within two (2) calendar days after receipt of written
notice of default, specifying the nature of such default and the steps necessary to cure
such default, and thereafter diligently take steps to cure the default, the non -defaulting
party may terminate the Agreement forthwith by giving to the defaulting party written
notice thereof.
28.2 Notwithstanding the above provisions, City shall have the right, at its sole
and absolute discretion and without cause, of terminating this Agreement at any time by
giving no less than seven (7) calendar days' prior written notice to Consultant. In the
event of termination under this Section, City shall pay Consultant for Services
satisfactorily performed and costs incurred up to the effective date of termination for
which Consultant has not been previously paid. On the effective date of termination,
Consultant shall deliver to City all reports, Documents and other information developed
or accumulated in the performance of this Agreement, whether in draft or final form.

History
Dudek Overview Dudek Services
The firm was founded in 1980 in Encinitas,
California as a small civil engineering consulting
practice working for municipal wastewater agencies
and private land developers in San Diego County.
The firm steadily grew its civil engineering practice
through the 1980s, expanding throughout Southern
California.
In 1990, Dudek started an environmental practice
in response to expanding state and federal
environmental regulations. Primarily through organic
growth and limited acquisitions of small firms,
Dudek has grown to a 740+ person multi -discipline
environmental and engineeringfirm with offices
throughout the United States. Dudek is ranked as
one of the Top 1-20 U.S. Environmental Firms
(Engineering News -Record, 2021). Joe Monaco
serves as president and CEO.
Dudek has 42 years in business under the present
business name; no prior business names, and 42
years of experience providing the proposed,
equivalent or related services.
Dudek has no conditions (e.g., bankruptcy, pending
litigation, planned office closures, mergers) and
organizational conflicts of interest that may affect
the ability of the proposer to perform the required
duties.
Dudek is not debarred, suspended, or otherwise
declared ineligible to contract with any other federal,
state, or local public agency.
Financial Stab€ ity
Dudek is an employee -owned corporation that has
been profitable each year since its founding in
1980. The firm is in sound financial condition and
has no financial issues that would impede our ability

Early on, the firm enabled direct purchase of shares
by employees. In addition, the firm started an
employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) in the early
2000s, and has regularly funded the ESOP from
profits. Asa result, the company continues to
successfully fund ownership transfer and function
as an independent, employee -owned firm.

Expertise
Dudek's team is highly accustomed to providing
exceptional services to a wide range of municipal
customers with an equally wide range of project
sizes. The following items summarize the major
components of Dudek's approach to engineering
projects:
Planning and Design Development
Dudek is skilled in the preparation of project/task
order planning and schematic design. A successful
project/task order begins with gaining a thorough
understanding of the issue and the City's definition
of task order critical success factors (i.e. the
barometer of performance to meeting the goals and
expectations).
Quality engineering starts with gaining a thorough
understanding of the problem and the client's
critical success factors (i.e. the barometer of how we
are performing towards meeting the goals and
expectations of our client). For example, a critical
success factor for a water reservoir repair project
that Dudek designed for the City of Oceanside was
to complete repairs to the first tank before the high
demand summer season. This goal necessitated a
fast -track project design schedule. Dudek best
achieves an understanding of the project/task and
client goals through face-to-face meetings, listening
carefully to you, and visits to the project site(s) by
key team members.
These early discussions will address critical topics
such as budget and schedule constraints,
constructability, environmental issues,
standardization, and public acceptance. Our teams
will be prepared to offer solutions with experience to
back them up. During a project for Chino Basin
Desalter Authority, Dudek designed a new 30-inch
diameter steel pipeline using trenchless horizontal
directional drilling methods crossing
environmentally sensitive habitat underthe Santa
Ana River, which completed the product water
pipeline project.
The project understanding/development phase will
culminate in preparation of a detailed project plan.
The plan will incorporate a scope of work, schedule,
and work breakdown structure (fee table with staff
hours by task). For detailed design projects, lists of
drawings and specifications to be prepared will also
be included.
Permitting
Required permits can greatly affect the cost and
schedule of a project. Identifying potential permits
early du ring project planning/schematic design is
critical for efficient processing of required permits.
Dudek will conduct a permit evaluation at the start of
each task order and coordinate with City staff to
develop a project implementation strategy that
considers permit constraints with a focus on
avoidance. The evaluation will include encroachment
permits for entities such as Caltrans, energy utilities,
and railroads, pavement moratoriums, and
environmental resource agency permits such as with
Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of
Fish and Wildlife, and Regional Water Quality Board.
We have relationships with staff at these agencies and
are used to working with these staff to acquire
permits.
In many cases, the project design can proceed in a
way that minimizes or better facilitates permitting,
such as utilizing trenchless construction methods
for pipelines to avoid environmentally sensitive
areas. Our approach to permits includes contacting
the approving entity early to inform them of the
project and gather requirements and constraints
and submitting complete applications in a timely
manner.

If needed, Dudek has environmental planning
experts who have prepared more than 3,800
CEQA/NEPA documents for large and small projects
throughout California. We have in-house expertise
available to conduct air quality and greenhouse gas

(GHG) emissions reports, cultural and historic
resources evaluations, biological resources reports,
and noise studies. Dudek's environmental
specialists work collaboratively with clients,
regulatory agencies, and the public to clearly define
project objectives and appropriate processes. We
apply practical knowledge of CEQA and IN EPA to help
lead agencies comply with current laws, regulations,
and case law. Our team expedites complex project
processing by designing and maintaining realistic
document schedules, adhering to consistent
communication protocol, leveraging our
longstanding agency relationships, and anticipating
potential issues as soon as possible.
Dudek's surface water specialists help clients
achieve project goals, control costs, and comply with
regulatory standards on a variety of projects ranging
from single streams to large-scale projects involving
multiple watersheds.
Applying the right resources to surface water
projects is tied integrally to the project setting and
objectives. We offer comprehensive surface water
services and expertise in highly technical surface
water subspecialties for a broad range of
environmental, engineering, and permitting projects.
We also offer the most advanced numerical
modeling services for hydrologic, hydraulic, and
sediment transport studies.
Additionally, we provide groundwater development,
reservoir modeling, and GIS implementation
services.

Hydrology is the foundation of all water resources
studies. Knowing the volumes, flow rates, and
timing of runoff is critical for determining the sizing
of reservoirs and conveyances and long-term water
supplies. Dudek has conducted many hydrologic
studies for flood control districts, municipalities, and
developers throughout Southern California.
Hydraulic structures (both natural and engineered)
play an important role in watershed control. Dudek
has conducted numerous hydraulic analysis studies
on natural creeks and rivers, ephemeral systems,
engineered channels, dams, and pipelines for
various agencies.
Surface water systems are often complex, requiring
a detailed understanding of the entire system to
provide accurate and appropriate assessment of the
existing and future conditions. Many systems
include natural streams and rivers that must be
protected from degradation related to changes in
flow rates, timing, and volumes. This type of study
often requires hydrologic, hydraulic, and sediment
transport analysis to prevent damage to existing or
proposed facilities.
Dudek specializes in preparing stormwater
assessments and design using proven, lasting, low-

Delivering Water/Sewer/Recycled
Water Pipeline Rehabilitation and
olacpmert Prof e
The Dudek team brings engineering expertise in all
facets of pipeline projects, includingsmall to large
diameter replacements and rehabilitation using the
full range of Greenbook methods (as well as
reinforced CIPP liners for pressure pipes). We are
experts in trenchless construction methods and
have successfully completed large horizontal
directional drill (HDD), microtunneling, auger boring,
and CIPP lining and slip lining projects to minimize
impacts to the public and environment.
We have all -encompassing experience designing
pipeline replacement projects for water, wastewater,
and recycled water, involving a variety of pipe
materials and site conditions. We have successfully
navigated the full spectrum of pipeline replacement
challenges, such as the City of Pasadena sewer
rehabilitation program, which involved the
rehabilitation of over 160,000 If of sewer pipe using
CIPP in densely populated residential areas. In
addition, our pipeline design engineers understand
the importance of accurate depiction of critical
buried infrastructure to avoid conflicts in the field.
We emphasize thorough record drawing research,
coupled with field walks, supplemental potholing,
and careful mapping to minimize change orders.
Our team understands constraints related to
removing and disposing of asbestos cement pipe,
as well as connecting new piping to it. During the
March Air Reserve Base Water Pipeline
Improvements project for Western Municipal Water
District, Dudek evaluated alignment alternatives
and provided engineering design services for several
critical areas in the system due to poor condition
and corrosion. Major elements of the project
included, traffic control, minimization of shutdowns,
coordination with MARE, and permitting.
• Large diameter pipeline improvements
present a unique set of challenges, such as:
• Pipe materials such as cement mortar lined
and coated steel that must be custom
engineered and fabricated
• Little flexibility for field changes due to utility
conflicts
■ Cathodic protection to extend the life of a
costly and critical underground asset
■ Slower installation increases impacts to
traffic and surrounding communities
■ Access structures in large diameter water
mains
■ Odor control in large diameter sewers
■ Complicated shutdowns and flow diversions
to minimize disruptions to service and
protect the environment from spills, etc.
The Dudek team has tackled these issues
successfully on many projects, such as pipeline
design adjustments project for Moulton Niguel
Water District, which involved a water main
relocation within a creek and under an 1-5 overpass,
protection of an existing water main passing under a
bridge being widened, a sewer casing extension,
and numerous miscellaneous smaller conflicts
along the project corridor. Design of all the
components required extensive coordination with
Caltrans. Dudek provided Moulton Niguel Water
District with streamlined solutions that reduced cost
and permitting complexities. In addition, our
pipeline design engineers understand the

importance of accurate depiction of critical buried
infrastructure to avoid conflicts in the field. We
emphasize thorough record drawing research,
coupled with field walks, supplemental potholing,
and careful mapping to minimize change orders.
Delivering Water and Wastewater
Facility Improvement Projects
Our team includes task managers and engineering
staff proficient in the design and rehabilitation of
water and sewer facilities, such as pump stations,
pressure reducing stations, storage tanks,
treatment processes and diversion structures.
These projects require a greater degree of
interdisciplinary coordination, as they typically
involve electrical, SCADA, structural, and sometimes
architectural designs. We have successfully
coordinated all these disciplines and see our trusted
subconsultants as an extension of our staff.
We actively participate in organizations such as the
Southern California Alliance of Publicly Owned
Treatment Works (SCAP), California Water
Environment Association (CWEA), and American
Water Works Association (AWWA), which keeps our
staff informed on new technologies and industry
trends and allows us to better serve our clients.
Dudek recently designed improvements to Padre
Dam Municipal Water District's Influent Pump
Station (IPS) Wet Well due to significant concrete
corrosion. Dudek assessed the condition of the
structure and piping, reviewed previous wet well
inspection reports and photos, and worked closely
with the District to develop an approach to the work
that met their budget and schedule requirements.
Additionally, contract documents included a 10
MGD sewage bypass pumping system during the
one month construction. The project was
successfully constructed in 2018.
Delivering Sanitation and Treatment
Facilities Projects
Dudek's treatment group proudly delivers projects
that shape California's water initiatives including
clean water, water recycling, and water supply.
Confronted with ever more stringent regulations and
increasing water shortages, our team of engineers,
scientists, operators, and managers implement
sustainable solutions to improve the quality of life
for the communities we serve. Project owners
benefit from our extensive resources including
experts in physical, chemical, and biological
processes. Dudek's team of highly qualified
professionals routinely assesses treatment
operations and assist owners in obtaining improved
efficiencies and long-term cost savings.
For example, Dudek provided professional
engineering services involving the replacement of
the wastewater solids handling facilities at the
Coachella Valley Water District's WRP 7. Dudek's
engineering design services will include a new solids
handling facility, complete with sludge holding tank,
odor control, new truck scales, polymer storage and
feed pumps, and solids thickening/dewatering and
conveyance facilities.
Delivering Treatment Facility
Optimization and Rehabilitation
Dudek engineers are specialists in identifying and
implementing optimization measures through
operation and maintenance strategies and/or
design of physical improvements. We effectively
balance the needs, experience, and concerns of
plant 0&M staff with management goals,
expectations, and budgets. This balance is achieved
by capturing treatment issues and concerns in
workshops with 0&M staff and vetting them against
objective engineering and data analysis, modeling,
and performance metrics. In our experience, there
are typically several process challenges that
manifest due to a lack of effective process
monitoring and control data, misinterpretation of the
data, or insufficient data.
We provide responsive, cost-effective, and
operations -focused engineering services customized
to meet the specific needs of our clients and their
0&M staff. Our flexibility and desire to focus on
facility intricacies makes us well suited for as -
needed engineering contracts.

Delivering Stormwater and
Groundwater Projects
Our engineers and hydrologists provide services
from flood control infrastructure planning, design,
and conjunctive use to natural drainage feature
creation, watershed management, and water quality
permit compliance to plan and design projects that
optimize valuable surface water assets while
reducing risks to infrastructure and property. Our
engineers excel at the planning, modelling, design,
and management for surface water and stormwater
infrastructure, as well as natural watershed
systems. Our diverse experts integrate innovative
technology for numeric modeling, source and
conveyance assessment and control, low -impact
development techniques, and quality
enhancements, reducing reduce flood risk and
protecting beneficial uses.
In addition, our engineers and hydrogeologists
provide planning, analysis, and design experience in
hydrogeology, groundwater recharge facilities, linear
infrastructure, pump station and groundwater wells.
Drought conditions require water agencies to
maximize limited resources. Conjunctive use, or the
coordination between surface and groundwater
resources, can be an effective means to improve
overall water supply reliability. For example, Dudek
recently completed the design for the 50-acre
Mountain Ave West Recharge Basin for Eastern
Municipal Water District. Located in a residential
neighborhood, reducing operational impacts and
risks associated with the recharge facility was a
critical component of the design.
We help water agencies utilize non -local or imported
sources to quantify recharge volumes and then
withdraw amounts specific to those deposits when
the need arises. Conjunctive use allows you to
maximize natural sources of recharge, banking
surface water runoff when abundant during wet
years for use during dry years.
Providing Bid and Construction
Support Services
We routinely provide bidding and construction
support services to our clients. We understand that
time -sensitive nature when questions and issues
arise during bidding and construction. Chuck Greely
will prioritize requests for assistance, providing in -
person support and responding to RFIs and shop
drawing submittals in a timely manner that meets or
exceeds task order requirements. For the
emergency repair projects, we were able to turn
around RFIs in less than 24 hours in most cases
and met with the contractor and resident engineer
regularly to ensure they had the information they
needed when they needed it. Our primary objective
is for your project to be successfully bid and
constructed on time and within budget.
Error Mitigation
Commonly, the quality control review process avoids
design errors and/or omissions. In the rare event of
error identification in the project construction
phase, time is of the essence. Upon notification,
Dudek staff will immediately assume the lead in an
investigation of the situation.
The primary goal is to keep the project moving
forward, maintain project safety, and minimize
downtime by the contractor. Time is money.
Dudek will coordinate a field meeting with the City
Contractor, Vendors, Construction Management
team and other stakeholders to brainstorm and
investigate the best solution as quickly as
possible. Once the appropriate corrective action
has been determined, Dudek will assist in
researching the root cause of the error. Trust is a
foundational characteristic of Dudek, and we will do
all that is necessary to mitigate the situation while
maintaining trust with the City.
In addition to being highly reactive and assuming
the investigative lead, Dudek has been successful
approaching the construction process with
Contractors as a supporting partner, open and
eager to identify means to assist the Contractor to
streamline construction while adhering to the
specifications of the work. We have found that
building trust has led to improved construction
efficiency, higher quality, and the team proactively
seeking and mitigating potential issues before
problems arise.

Project Controls and Example Project
Technical Approach
The Dudek team is accustomed to providing
exceptional services to a wide range of municipal
customers with an equally wide range of project
sizes and complexities. Dudek has both managed
and supported numerous similar contracts
throughout southern California.
Program and Project
Management
Every project, from complex planning, analysis, and
design involving a multi -faceted team, to the most
basic design process benefits from strong,
consistent leadership and communication. The
project manager's many hats include serving as a
single point of contact for the City and task
managers, assuring quality deliverables, and budget
and schedule monitoring and reporting. Our
management approach emphasizes the following
key elements:
■ Senior technical oversight and daily
administrative management
■ Continuous and clear communication
• Schedule and cost monitoring and reporting
• Quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC)
■ Multi project management and collaboration
• Virtual collaboration and technology; and,
■ Peer -to -peer collaboration.
Senior Technical Oversight and Administrative
Management. We foster clear and regular
communication and coordination between the
Dudek, client, and subconsultant teams. We
collaborate with our clients to establish regular face-
to-face meetings or teleconferences and prepare
agendas, minutes, and notes to assist teams in
clearly understanding issues so that work proceeds
in a unified manner. We use check -in meetings with
our project teams to allocate resources properly
according to the client's schedule constraints. When
working on several concurrent projects, Dudek
identifies commonalities and areas where
information sharing can reduce the time, budget, or
work needed to produce deliverables.
Continuous and Clear Communication. Proactive
client communication is the cornerstone of the
Dudek business
philosophy.
Beginning at the
Kickoff Meeting, COMMUNICATIONS
Dudek will clearly Kickoff meeting to establish

process with the
project team so that all parties have a uniform
understanding of roles, responsibilities,
requirements, stakeholders, deliverables,
objectives, and goals. Each project manager is
accountable for providing proactive client
communications that include:
• Regularly calling or emailing the City's key
contact staff person to discuss project
milestones, activities, and potential issues
■ Holding regular project management
meetings with key project staff to coordinate
work efforts, monitor task completion, and
review budget conformance
• Updating, as necessary, the project
description, schedule, work progress

Microsoft Project
We use our regular
Budget tracking with Vision
project team meetings
and Excel
to maintain
continuous
communication. These meetings
also help closely
monitor cost and schedule performance.
Project schedule, budget and progress are
monitored by earned -value schedules and budget
tracking. The tracking system uses the project Work
Breakdown Structure (WBS), combined with the
project schedule to map the estimate the projected
accumulation of cost from beginning to end,
referred to as the Base Line. As the project
advances, the project manager communicates with
the team on a regular basis to evaluate each task
for completion and compares total earned value to
project billings to establish a highly accurate budget
status at any point in the project. Proactively
managing the project schedule and budget from the
onset of the project provides the project manager
with the early warning indicators necessary to
manage the work effort and protect the project
budget.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC). our
Project Manager and Quality Control team are
responsible for quality assurance and monitoring
the completion of quality control reviews. The
quality control review for specific project elements is
delegated to senior staff with expertise in the
project scope elements. Additionally, the QC
reviewer and Project Manager will collaborate on
interdisciplinary reviews, checking of actual field
conditions, project calculation reviews, cost
opinions, deliverable review, permit requirements,
and responses to City comments.
Lack of quality is a leading cause of budget
overruns, construction claims and client
dissatisfaction. Dudek is committed to training
project managers in proven project management
and control methods. To that end, we maintain an
in-house Project Managers Committee to establish
guidelines for project management and review each
project manager's performance. Application of
proven project management and quality review
principles assures that client satisfaction is
improved, project quality is improved, and cost
savings realized. Our Quality Management Program
focuses on continually improving quality by
identifying and correcting problems, so that they do
not reoccur.
Quality assurance is a project management
responsibility conducted in accordance with the
Quality Control Plan. The project manager monitors
quality assurance continuously, makingsure proper
quality control reviews are conducted and
documented at appropriate stages of the project
development. Team members habitually check in
with peers or senior engineers for every key
decision, creating a continuous quality control check
that reduces the potential for rework. Our assigned
"Quality is never an accident. It is always the
result of intelligent effort. "
- John Ruskin
Quality Control Lead will ensure all project
deliverables are reviewed by an independent
technical expert prior to submittal to the City.
Multi -Project Management and Collaboration.
Dudek project managers follow similar project
tracking, scheduling, and budgeting systems. In
addition, by utilizing a standard file management
system, flexible budget and schedule tracking
systems, our project managers can not only manage
multiple projects, but can quickly pickup and
support other project managers if the need arises.

Demonstrated success of our ability to manage
multiple projects is reflected in our management
tracking system, where our managers maintain a
schedule performance index (SPI) and cost
performance index (CPI) of 1.0 for nearly every
project.
Management of Subconsultant QA/QC. Dudek has
a comprehensive array of in-house services;
however, in some cases, it is necessary to
subcontract for expertise we do not provide, or
where it is more economically feasible, efficient, or
better meets the goals of our client. Dudek works to
build strong relationships with subconsultants who
work to the same levels of excellence and quality
Dudek expects from our own employees. We view
subconsultants as an extension of our staff, and as
such, we review their work under our QA/QC
program for interdisciplinary coordination and
require that they conduct independent technical
reviews of all deliverables.
Coordination with Subconsultants. Effective
subconsultant coordination is critically important to
the success of multi -disciplinary engineering
projects. Our subconsultants depend on us for
information to provide their services efficiently and
accurately. Often times, they are not given direction
or necessary data until the last minute of an
upcoming deliverable. This negatively affects project
schedule and quality. The philosophy of Dudek's
engineering and design group is to coordinate with
our subconsultants early and often.
Technologies, Innovations, and
Processes
Virtual Collaboration and Technology. Dudek offers
tools and technologies for efficient, productive
virtual collaboration with the City including:
■ File Sharing/Storage via ShareFile, allowing
Dudek to store, share, exchange and track
files with the City; providing a centralized

Agreement.
4. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to
contain, the following provisions:
A. Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured
pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation
against City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,
volunteers and employees or shall specifically allow Consultant or others
providing insurance evidence in compliance with these requirements to
waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Consultant hereby waives its
own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express
waivers from each of its subconsultants.
B. Additional Insured Status. All liability policies including general liability,
excess liability, pollution liability, and automobile liability, if required, but
not including professional liability, shall provide or be endorsed to provide
that City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,
volunteers and employees shall be included as insureds under such
policies.
C. Primary and Non Contributory. All liability coverage shall apply on a
primary basis and shall not require contribution from any insurance or self-
insurance maintained by City.
D. Notice of Cancellation. All policies shall provide City with thirty (30)
calendar days' notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which ten
(10) calendar days' notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each
required coverage.
5. Additional Agreements Between the Parties. The parties hereby agree to the
following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Consultant shall provide certificates of insurance
to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with
a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation and other
endorsements as specified herein for each coverage. Insurance
certificates and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk Manager
prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance
shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of this
Agreement. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy
DUDEK Page C-2 7-44
shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on
its behalf. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of any such
policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has
been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is
cancelled or reduced, Consultant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of
written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the
City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been
reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or
companies. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of
all required insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Consultant sixty (60) calendar days' advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate
Consultant's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Consultant agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subconsultants or others with whom Consultant enters
into contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review.
Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any
liability on City, or its employees. Consultant shall require and verify that
all subconsultants maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated
herein, and Consultant shall ensure that City is an additional insured on
insurance required from subconsultants. For CGL coverage,
subconsultants shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as
CG20380413.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Consultant acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or
limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to
the City.
F. Self -insured Retentions. Any self -insured retentions must be declared to
and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self -insured
DUDEK Page C-3 7-45
retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-
insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until
proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall,
at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Consultant's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes
no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve City.
Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of
the Work.

8. STANDARD OF CARE
8.1 All of the Services shall be performed by Consultant or under Consultant's
supervision. Consultant represents that it possesses the professional and technical
personnel required to perform the Services required by this Agreement, and that it will
perform all Services in a manner commensurate with community professional standards
and with the ordinary degree of skill and care that would be used by other reasonably
competent practitioners of the same discipline under similar circumstances. All Services
shall be performed by qualified and experienced personnel who are not employed by City.
By delivery of completed Work, Consultant certifies that the Work conforms to the
requirements of this Agreement, all applicable federal, state and local laws, and legally
recognized professional standards.
8.2 Consultant represents and warrants to City that it has, shall obtain, and shall
keep in full force and effect during the term hereof, at its sole cost and expense, all
licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance and approvals of whatsoever nature that is
legally required of Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant shall maintain a City
of Newport Beach business license during the term of this Agreement.
8.3 Consultant shall not be responsible for delay, nor shall Consultant be
responsible for damages or be in default or deemed to be in default by reason of strikes,

approve or disapprove Consultant's Work promptly, or delay or faulty performance by
City, contractors, or governmental agencies.
9. HOLD HARMLESS
9.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,
volunteers and employees any person or entity owning or otherwise in legal control of the
Hunsaker & Associates Irvine, Inc. Page 4 7-50
property upon which Consultant performs the Project and/or Services contemplated by
this Agreement (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all
claims (including, without limitation, claims for bodily injury, death or damage to property),
demands, obligations, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, judgments,
fines, penalties, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees, disbursements and court costs) of every kind and nature whatsoever (individually,
a Claim; collectively, "Claims"), and which may arise from or in any manner relate (directly
or indirectly) to any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or the negligent
or reckless acts, errors and/or omissions, or the willful misconduct, of Consultant in
performance of the Services provided under this Agreement including, without limitation,
defects in workmanship or materials or Consultant's presence or activities conducted on
the Project (including the negligent, reckless, and/or willful acts, errors and/or omissions
of Consultant's principals, officers, agents, employees, vendors, suppliers,
subconsultants, subcontractors, anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them or
for whose acts they may be liable, or any or all of them.
9.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require
Consultant to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim to the extent arising from
the negligence, reckless or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Nothing in this
indemnity shall be construed as authorizing any award of attorneys' fees in any action on
or to enforce the terms of this Agreement. This indemnity shall apply to all claims and
liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do
not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by the
Consultant.
9.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent this Agreement includes design
professional services under Civil Code Section 2782.8, as may be amended from time to
time, such duties of Consultant to indemnify and defend shall only be to the full extent
permitted by Civil Code Section 2782.8.
10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
10.1 It is understood that City retains Consultant on an independent contractor
basis and Consultant is not an agent or employee of City. The manner and means of
conducting the Work are under the control of Consultant, except to the extent they are
limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No civil
service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its employees.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for Consultant or any
of Consultant's employees or agents, to be the agents or employees of City. Consultant
shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of performing the Work,
provided that Consultant is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Anything in
this Agreement that may appear to give City the right to direct Consultant as to the details
of the performance of the Work or to exercise a measure of control over Consultant shall
mean only that Consultant shall follow the desires of City with respect to the results of the
Services.
Hunsaker & Associates Irvine, Inc. Page 5 7-51
10.2 Consultant agrees and acknowledges that no individual performing
Services or Work pursuant to this Agreement shall: work full-time for more than six (6)
months; work regular part-time service of at least an average of twenty (20) hours per
week for one year or longer; work nine hundred sixty (960) hours in any fiscal year; or
already be a CalPERS member.

providing a complete set of fingerprints to City prior to commencing or performing
Services or Work. Consultant is required to submit any fees for the criminal background
investigation according to the City's most current administrative fee schedule or
successor document. Fingerprints may be required to be updated every five (5) years.
11. COOPERATION
Consultant agrees to work closely and cooperate fully with City's designated
Project Administrator and any other agencies that may have jurisdiction or interest in the
Work to be performed. City agrees to cooperate with the Consultant on the Project.
12. CITY POLICY
Consultant shall discuss and review all matters relating to policy and Project
direction with City's Project Administrator in advance of all critical decision points in order
to ensure the Project proceeds in a manner consistent with City goals and policies.
13. PROGRESS

regular basis regarding the status and progress of the Project, activities performed and

The subcontractors authorized by City, if any, to perform Work on this Project are
identified in Exhibit A and the Letter Proposal. Consultant shall be fully responsible to
City for all acts and omissions of any subcontractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall
create any contractual relationship between City and any subcontractor nor shall it create

beneficiary of any Work performed by the subcontractor for purposes of establishing a
duty of care between the subcontractor and City. Except as specifically authorized herein,

pursuant to this Agreement are not intended or represented to be suitable for reuse by

and any use of incomplete Documents without specific written authorization from
Consultant will be at City's sole risk and without liability to Consultant. Further, any and
all liability arising out of changes made to Consultant's deliverables under this Agreement
by City or persons other than Consultant is waived against Consultant, and City assumes
full responsibility for such changes unless City has given Consultant prior notice and has
received from Consultant written consent for such changes.
17.3 Computer Aided Design and Drafting ("CADD") data delivered to City shall
include the professional stamp of the engineer or architect in charge of or responsible for

days after finalization of the Project.
18. OPINION OF COST
Any opinion of the construction cost prepared by Consultant represents the
Consultant's judgment as a design professional and is supplied for the general guidance
of City. Since Consultant has no control over the cost of labor and material, or over
competitive bidding or market conditions, Consultant does not guarantee the accuracy of
such opinions as compared to Consultant or contractor bids or actual cost to City.
19. CONFIDENTIALITY
All Documents, including drafts, preliminary drawings or plans, notes and
communications that result from the Services in this Agreement, shall be kept confidential
unless City expressly authorizes in writing the release of information.

Hunsaker & Associates Irvine, Inc. Page 8 7-54
22. WITHHOLDINGS

the dispute with respect to such payment. Such withholding shall not be deemed to

discontinue Work as a result of such withholding. Consultant shall have an immediate
right to appeal to the City Manager or designee with respect to such disputed sums.
Consultant shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate of return
that City earned on its investments during the time period, from the date of withholding of
any amounts found to have been improperly withheld.
23. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
In the event of errors or omissions that are due to the negligence or professional
inexperience of Consultant which result in expense to City greater than what would have
resulted if there were not errors or omissions in the Work accomplished by Consultant,
the additional design, construction and/or restoration expense shall be borne by
Consultant. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit City's rights under the law or any
other sections of this Agreement.
24. CITY'S RIGHT TO EMPLOY OTHER CONSULTANTS
City reserves the right to employ other Consultants in connection with the Project.

SECTION l PROJECT CONTROLS
Quality Control
H&A has always placed great emphasis on quality assurance. The documents that we develop will be subject to our
established in-house Quality Control Procedures. All H&A personnel are trained in the procedures to be used for quality
control checking so that all delivered documents, reports, and studies are of a quality that is consistent with professional
standards and satisfies the specific requirements of each client. Elements include following:
■ Review Comment Verification. Before any internal review of plans, a senior engineer will check that all prior
comments have been addressed appropriately including the initial response and final action documented. From our
experience augmenting agency staff doing plan checking we understand the frustration of making the same comments
when they were not addressed the first time.
■ Intra-Discipline Review. Technical checking and design review activities are performed by each responsible design
discipline under the direction of the designated lead engineer (e.g., checking pipe lengths and slopes vs. elevations
for storm -drain profiles).
■ Inter -Disciplinary Review. The IDR is done by senior engineers in all disciplines involved in the project to identify any
conflicts between project components and resolve them among the design team (e.g., checking storm -drain profiles
against utility plans for potential conflicts).
■ Independent Technical Review. The ITR will be noted in the scope and performed by H&A staff with no previous
involvement in the project to date. The purpose of this review is to provide a real world check (2nd opinion) for the
elements in the design or deliverable and provide a level of assurance that the document is done properly (e.g.,
checking the overall project configuration meets the identified goals and constraints effectively).
■ Constructability Review. A review of plans by our experienced staff with field background working with contractors
assures that the project is cost-effective and constructible from the contractor's point of view (e.g., evaluating access
for equipment and materials to construct storm -drain piping at specific stage of construction with limited space). The
result is a better set of plans, specifications and estimates and fewer claims. H&A's initial evaluation of this project
is that constructability concerns are critical and will be considered from the start so we select the preferred
alternative design with this issue in mind.
H&A management does Quality Assurance audits to ensure the quality control procedures are being followed. This
involves review of documents such as "red line" markups and interviews with key individuals to confirm that the quality
control process is being followed and that issues are properly resolved and changes implemented as necessary.
Project Management
H&A uses a 3-prong approach to project management — scope, schedule and budget. We recognize that the three factors
interact constantly and must all be addressed simultaneously and continuously for success. Also that communications
are critical to effective coordination of all aspects of a project into a seamless design and maintain client confidence.
Scope Control: Every H&A project starts with a project management plan that includes the contract scope of work,
project schedule and overall budget. The project management plan divides the overall project into smaller tasks using a
Work Breakdown Structure. Each task then has a scope, schedule and budget assigned and the linkages between tasks
HUNSAKER & ASSOCIATES IRVINE.INC.

't NVPOR
f
RFP No. 22-51
On -Call Professional Civil Engineering Services
clearly identified. When an individual is assigned a task, the person receives the scope, schedule and budget for that
work and is expected to meet those criteria.
H&A project managers use the MBWA (Management By Walking Around) approach developed at Hewlett-Packard. From
the president down to the most junior project manager, each leader is outside of their office frequently overseeing their
assigned staff, reviewing progress, answering questions and providing direction. This approach typically uncovers any
problems before the reporting systems so we can expedite adjustments to benefit the City. Depending on the size
and complexity of the project, this approach may be augmented by formal team meetings that typically include active
subconsultants
Schedule Control: The overall schedule will be divided per the Work Breakdown Structure described above under Scope.
H&A staff are familiar with Microsoft Project and other scheduling software programs and can provide City staff with the
appropriate reports and files. The budget status typically links to the schedule status so the accounting reports often
trigger schedule related actions. All variances (both negative and positive) are then investigated to determine the cause
and effect of each one. If a problem or bad trend is determined to be present, a work around strategy is developed.
Possible actions include overtime, added staff, change in staff, use of senior staff for improved efficiency and other
methods. The overall schedule is typically updated as part of the progress report so the client gets a formal monthly
schedule status. However, H&A project managers do not wait for end of month reports and instead take immediate action
if a problem is identified so the City will benefit from our proactive problem solving approach.
Budget Control: The project manager receives a weekly report of all costs incurred on the project including H&A labor,
expenses and subconsultant invoices received. As noted, each task in the Work Breakdown Structure will have its own
budget that will be formally monitored weekly. These are checked against the planned costs to identify any variances. All
variances (both negative and positive) are then investigated to determine the cause and effect of each one. For budget
variances, the same approach described above under Schedule is used to keep the project on track. The weekly reports
on cost will then show the impact of the work around strategy and identify if additional actions are needed.
Team Communications
Client communications are typically directed to/from the project manager as the primary point of contact. Examples include
monthly progress reports with schedule updates and invoices, progress and review meetings with client staff and more
informal phone calls and emails as appropriate. After discussion between H&A and the client, it may be decided that some
senior technical staff from each party can communicate directly with these contacts documented by follow-up emails
copied to the H&A project manager. We are strong believers in the saying "If it is not written down — it did not happen" so
our project communications are well documented and accessible for future reference by H&A and the City.

City staff will be managing dozens of projects over
the course of this contract. This requires the help of
experienced on -call consultants to ensure City all
assigned projects.
MKN is an ideal partner. MKN has delivered over
300 task orders over the past 5 years on our existing
20+ On -Call contracts, with our services exceeding
$750,000 per year for some contracts.
This experience demonstrates our team can meet
the needs of our On -Call clients. This section
highlights the keys to our success.
MKN's Project Management Approach
This section describes our overall approach to
Project Management.
MKN's Project Management Procedures are based
on the driving forces to success which include: (1)
Organization, (2) Communication, (3) Project
Documentation, and (4) Risk Management and
Quality Control.
Team Organization and Resource Management
MKN's success over the past decade has been
predicated on the belief that Client service is the
highest goal, and, therefore, our project teams are
assembled to achieve this goal.
MKN's proposed Project Manager, Ryan Gallagher
will strive to understand your expectations for the
work in every respect important to you, such as
work scope, schedule requirements, level of detail,
technical quality, deliverable appearance, staff
involvement, team effort and cost.
Our PM will then identify the best engineers to
staff the project. While most companies operate
with separate "profit centers", MKN operates our
entire 45+ person operation as a single business
unit. For the City, this means that there are no
barriers to where we can draw expertise and
resources from, and more importantly every MKN
employee is driven to deliver the best results for
every Client as we succeed as a company not as
an office.
Key Project Management Take-Aways:
1. Project Management Tools that keep the
City PM informed
2. Quality Management System streamlined
and tailored for Municipal Water Projects
3. Extensive Track Record of Successfully
Managing On -Call Contracts
The Project Manager will coordinate the scope,
schedule, and budget with the selected project
team. This ensures that all team members are in
agreement with our commitment to the City.

MKN's Quality Management System is based on our Principal's experience at Fortune 500 Design Firms, but
streamlined and focused for Municipal Water projects. This means better quality, faster delivery and lower
overhead for our Clients.
Risk Management and Quality Control
The final element of our Project Management
Approach is Risk Management and Quality Control,
which are both encompassed in MKN's Quality
Management System (QMS). This defined program
includes three key elements: (1) Quality Planning,
(2) Quality Assurance, and (3) Quality Control.
Quality Planning - Plan for Success
— Our QMS requires the Project Manager
— to plan for quality even before a contract
— is signed. This means that our proposal
must include the following:
• Line Item Scope - this helps to ensure that the
budget is preserved through project execution.
• Line Item Schedule - QC is included in our task
linked Microsoft Project Schedules to ensure
that adequate time is allotted, this typically
requires 2-5 days.
• Identify QC Person - this person is identified
and confirmed prior to submitting.
Once signed, a Project Management Plan is prepared
which details key elements of the project, including
risks and quality reviews.
Quality Assurance - Prevent Errors
r A key element of Quality Assurance is
our technical training which is
conducted every two weeks. Our
engineers are also supported by our planning
templates, calculation spreadsheets and access to
our Technical Practice Groups which maintain and
manage many of these documents.
The Technical Review completed at the 10% project
phase is another key element of our Quality
Assurance program.
Quality Control - Confirm MKN Quality is
Met
For the City, MKN's President Michael Nunely, will
serve as the Principal -in -Charge which requires
him to conduct a monthly status meeting with
Project Manager Ryan Gallagher. During this call,
project status will be discussed along with adherence
to QMS procedures and resource needs.
Every deliverable will be reviewed by MKN
approved QC Reviewers, who will follow our
defined process for QC review. Our standard review
forms will be utilized which identify key elements
of review. These documents have been prepared
based on our team's extensive experience and
"Lesson's Learned".

20' ^ :seer Plan Update I Santa
Project Manager. Prepared the SCWD 2013 Water Master Plan, which culminated in a $54
million capital improvement program and implementation strategy. It also provided
technical guidance for the implementation and monitoring of a development impact
evaluation process, a comprehensive water conservation program, an operational
efficiency program, and long-range supply acquisition requirements. The master plan
was closely coordinated with established local and regional planning documents.
The basis for recommending capital improvements was the application of a series of
predictive models developed specifically for this effort, including a population growth
model, a water demand model, a demographic demand model, a development impact
model, a project cost estimating model and a computer hydraulic model. Ongoing
preparation of this master plan featured regular executive meetings included top
management (retail, engineering, operations, finance and compliance), members of the
board's subcommittee on capital expenditures, and self (consultant).
Fontana Water Company 201 1 Sandhill Water Treatment Plant Assessment I California
Analyst. Acted as an impartial third party to determine the surface water treatment
capacity of the Fontana Water Company's primary production facility. Company
estimates for capital recovery ofthe construction costs ofthe Planthadbeen challenged
through the Public Utility Commission (PUC) who was seeking independent review of
the Plant's capacity to assist with making a determination on the case. The Plant was
originally designed to treat local surface water from Lytle Creek via diatomaceous
earth filtration; it was later expanded to receive surface water from multiple sources
and to treat the additional supply capacityvia a parallel conventional process utilizing
flocculation, sedimentation and sand filtration. Conducted field research of each
element in the treatment process, reviewed available as -built drawings, reviewed
operating permits, collected computer generated and observational operations data,
constructed a hydraulic model of the Plant, determined the typical and maximum
production capacities, and prepared a report on the findings. The report was used
to support professional witness testimony related to technical claims made by the
Fontana Water Company.
Project Engineer. Supervised the development and calibration of a water system
hydraulic model and a sewer system hydraulic model for HPUD to assist with
determination of hydraulic capacity deficiencies under existing and future conditions.

2019 Sewer Master Plan I Arvin, CA
Project Manager. Responsible for preparing a comprehensive Sewer Master Plan (SMP) for the wastewater collection
system serving the City of Arvin including integration of the following services: hydraulic analysis, condition
assessment, regulatory compliance and environmental assessment. Hydraulic analysis includes (1) flow generation
analysis for existing and future conditions, (2) computer modeling of the collection system, and (3) identification
of pipelines with insufficient capacity. Condition assessment includes (1) review of the lift station, (2) review of
CCTV footage for the most critical pipes, (3) inspection of manholes, and (4) identification of infrastructure with
deficient performance or high risk of failure. Regulatory compliance involves preparation and submittal of a System
Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP) to the Regional Water Quality Control Board as part of the City's
Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP). Environmental assessment involves preparation of a programmatic CEQA
document for the SMP, which represents implementation of the City's General Plan with respect to growth and utility
services. The Sewer Master Plan culminates in a 20-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which is intended to
support a sewer rate study.
20) 5 Water Master Plan Update � Arcadia, CA
Project Manager. Prepared the City of Arcadia 2015 Water Master Plan, which focused on the synergy between hydraulic
capacity and asset performance culminated in a multi -phased capital improvement and replacement program. The
water system was evaluated against design criteria (i.e. criteria focused on hydraulic requirements and preferences)
to identify areas where greater capacity was needed. The water system was also evaluated against planning criteria
(i.e. criteria used in asset management to determine the benefits of replacement due to age and condition) to identify
areas of vulnerability, inefficiency and waste. Prioritization for improvements and replacements incorporated the
conclusions of both the capacity and performance evaluations. One chapter of the master plan was devoted to
water conservation and featured (1) modeling of conservation efficiency and (2) development of a cost-effective
conservation program. The evaluation of conservation efficiency served as a case study and basis for a white paper
published by AWWA entitled Normalization of External Factors Impacting Water Conservation Monitoring. The study
of cost-effective conservation resulted in development of a genetic algorithm in Visual Basic for cost optimization
at varying levels of target water use efficiency. The genetic algorithm considers the cost of implementation, revenue
impacts, and practical limitations of each conservation project or program. This water master plan serves as the
blueprint for water system budgeting, water conservation coordination, asset management reporting and supply
portfolio management.

limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the

insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until
proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall,
at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Consultant's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes
no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve City.
Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of
the Work.

9.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to
require Consultant to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim to the extent

conducting the Work are under the control of Consultant, except to the extent they are
limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No
civil service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its

create any obligation on the part of City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies
due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise required by law. City is an
intended beneficiary of any Work performed by the subcontractor for purposes of

not discontinue Work as a result of such withholding. Consultant shall have an
immediate right to appeal to the City Manager or designee with respect to such disputed
sums. Consultant shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate

23. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
In the event of errors or omissions that are due to the negligence or professional
inexperience of Consultant which result in expense to City greater than what would

borne by Consultant. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit City's rights under the

City of Newport Beach, Department of Public Works
100 Civic Center Drive
Newport Beach, CA 92660
Subject: On -Call Professional Civil Engineering Services (RFP No. 22-51)
Dear Mr. Sinacori:
Psomas has a long history of working with the City of Newport Beach and we are grateful for the relationships we
have developed with your various staff members. The Psomas team has the background, resources, track record,
and relevant experience in successfully delivering projects to the City of Newport Beach and to numerous other
local cities with great success.
I, Psomas' Project Director, Joseph Boyle, PE, have more than 37 years of experience delivering services to public
agencies. The most important attributes I can offer the City are responsiveness, flexibility, and understanding of
technical and community issues. All of these attributes are the reason Psomas is a solid choice for the City. When
you select the Psomas team, you can expect the following benefits:
> Responsiveness: Being responsive to an on -call task order request is second nature to Psomas. As a firm, we
have more than 30 as -needed public agency contracts, and over 75% of those are with repeat clients. One of the
keys to successfully managing on -call contracts is Joe's commitment to responsiveness and meeting the City's
response time requirements.
> Flexibility: Demonstrating flexibility means being able to expand and contract to the needs of the City on
short notice. This can be difficult for many firms given they may not have the resources to deliver these types
of services, but not for Psomas. To augment staff named in this proposal, Psomas can draw upon additional
resources throughout the firm.
► Understanding the Newport Beach Community: The City has a reputation for being a vibrant place to live, work,
and visit. This reputation has come as a result of both staff and your consultants understanding the community
they are serving as well as a commitment to going above and beyond, The Psomas team understands the City's
goals for delivering projects on time and within budget and Psomas is the right firm to deliver innovative, timely
and cost-effective professional solutions to enhance the community and quality of life of your residents.
As a local Southern California firm, Psomas is in the position to respond to the City's needs quickly and with staff
who are qualified and team players. Should you have any questions, please contact me by phone at (714) 481-8060 or

Resources and Responsiveness
With a large contingent of local resources from which
to draw, the Psomas team can respond to whatever
project needs may arise. By managing a balanced client
workload among our staff, Psomas is able to respond
within 48 hours to meet with the City. This keeps the
project momentum moving forward so the Psomas
team is in place and ready to work within days of
receiving a Notice to Proceed.
As Psomas' main point of contact, Joe Boyle will
immediately assign one of our highly qualified task
order managers to the task order request based on
relevant experience and availability. Our managers
have the knowledge and skills required to navigate the
hurdles that may arise during the course of the project.
The Psomas team understands the importance of
meeting deadlines in a timely manner. We commit to
providing adequate staffing based on qualifications
and size of team needed for each task. Being a firm
with over 700 employees, Psomas is the "right size"
firm for this contract —big enough to handle any task
order, but adept enough to provide the City a personal
touch and responsiveness.
Project Delivery
Psomas' approach to project delivery involves a
combination of administrative or management steps
and procedures that ensure the project scope objectives
are met, on time and within budget. The elements
of the project management effort can generally be
identified as communication, project tracking,
schedule control, documentation and quality control.
Joe Boyle and all of our discipline leads have the project
management tools in place to ensure all aspects of the
delivery process are implemented, and the goals and
expectations of the City's staff are met.
Communication
Communication starts with scope negotiation, a
signed contract or work order, and a kick-off meeting,
and continues through the completion of the project.
Open lines of communication between Psomas and
the City and other project stakeholders are critical
for project success. Psomas takes great pride in our
communication protocols and abilities. Our ultimate
goal is to be an extension of City staff, and to ensure
the City's project manager is always up-to-date on the
status of each task, project schedule, and budget.
Several tools are used to ensure open lines of
communication, which can be scaled to fit the project.
Some of these tools include:
► Meet bi-weekly with the consultant team to
maintain momentum and to address conflicts that
may arise
► Schedule regular, monthly meetings with the City
and other affected stakeholders
► Include progress reports with invoices to
document progress
Project Tracking
Psomas recognizes the need for tracking project
budgets along with progress in order to minimize the
risk of overruns. Each week, our project managers
receive project summary reports detailing hours
charged and costs for that particular period and for
the projects to date. On our monthly invoices, clients
are provided with the hours and costs charged to jobs
for that month, and a budget summary that shows the
amount spent to date and the amount remaining. Work
schedule modifications can be made to keep the project
on track.
Schedule Control
For each project, Psomas develops and maintains a
project schedule that identifies key milestones and
critical path items. The schedule is frequently updated
and shared with the project team and stakeholders. To
ensure the project remains on schedule, the following
strategies are used:
> Constant communication with the City's project
manager to identify critical items
► Quick response to design questions, field issues,
and other requests
► Commitment to respond Within 24 hours
> Monitoring of the project schedule to compare
progress versus plan
► QA/QC verification of subconsultant products and
progress
► Sharing of design files, meeting notes, and other
documents on Psomas' ProjectWeb to ensure
all team members are using the most recent
information
Using these tools, Psomas is able to maintain
the project schedule by monitoring time -critical
items such as agency/stakeholder review periods,
utility relocations, right-of-way acquisitions, and
environmental permitting issues.
Documentation
The Psomas Team members have a wealth of
experience delivering projects for local agencies that
use local, state, and federal funds. Psomas' document
control management policies ensure files are complete
and accurate and meet the requirements of clients.
Our typical monthly project progress reports include
the status of deliverables, utility and outside -agency
efforts, cost and schedule snapshot and analysis, and
issues discussion and recommended resolution actions.
These monthly progress reports will be tailored to the
needs and desires of the City.
Quality Assurance/Quality
Control
Psomas has responsibility for the accuracy and
completeness of the maps, plans, reports, calculations,
and construction cost estimates under its scope of
work and will meet that responsibility through the
implementation of a quality assurance plan. Our QA/QC
Program is based upon the belief that "Nothing is more
important than design quality."
The individuals responsible for our Quality Control
Program (QCP) are the Project Manager, Quality
Assurance Manager, and Quality Control Manager.
Our QCP will be implemented over the duration of the
project and is not merely a series of individual events/
plan checks at a few points on the schedule. There are
three major stages in our QCP:
> Quality Assurance — Are we doing the right
things?
► Quality Control — Are we doing things right?
> Post -Completion Quality Evaluation — What can
we do better?
Couple the three stages with a robust training
program, and you have a staff with the experience,
expertise, and the QA/QC tools to ensure a quality
product every time.
In the quality planning stage Psomas uses the kick-
off meeting to determine your QCP expectations. Our
Quality Assurance/Quality Control Managers will then
develop a work plan with our Project Manager based
upon the City's input, the schedule, and the budget.
The work plan identifies specific work products and
establishes a set of relevant measures and standards of
quality for each task that may result from this on -call
contract.
Once work on the project begins, we move on to
the quality control stage. In this stage we track the
execution of the work plan, review our designs and
work products, and communicate with the client
and team members. We provide project information
through our cloud -based file sharing tools, allowing
all team members to monitor the progress of our work
plan. In this stage, the Quality Assurance/Quality
Control Manager also facilitates detailed technical
reviews of our field work and design, and those of
all team members, to ensure they meet the quality
standards defined in the quality planning plan. This
review is continuous throughout the life of the project
and ensures a smooth process and buildable final
product with minimal change orders.

Consultant's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Consultant agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Consultant enters

insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,

CG 20 38 04 13.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Consultant acknowledges and

E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or
limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to

fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until
proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall,
at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Consultant's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes
no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve City.
I. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of
the Work.

PROJECT CONTROLS:
Public works engineering contracts require careful planning,
effective communication, and precise execution in order
to avoid costly contract change orders during the construction
phase. Additionally, as this contract includes potential local, state
or federally funded design and construction contracts, it is critical
that the selected team have a thorough understanding of the design,
approval, and construction processing requirements for each funding
source and, as is the case for federal projects, the requirements
outlined in the Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM). In an
effort to ensure consistent and excellent services on this contract,
TAIT will employ our proven 5 step project management protocol
(Understand > Assign > Plan > Execute > QA/QC) on
each assigned contract:
UNDERSTAND:
Upon receipt of an RFP from the City, TAIT will conduct a cursory
project review and will research existing conditions jfield,
environmental, regulation, and stakeholders) in order to ensure we
have a full understanding of the scope. We will also meet with the
City to discuss the project in an effort to understand the City's needs.
The potential scope of work under this contract is anticipated to
include local and state funded design services on contracts such as:
preparation of detailed roadway rehabilitation or widening plans,
pipeline construction plans, signing & striping plans, traffic signal
modification, and traffic control plans, project cost estimates, and
project specifications in accordance with City standards. Design
services may also require analysis of CEQA/NFPA requirements,
preparation of design reports for hydrology and pre/post
construction water quality documents (LID/SWPPP/NOI), review
of construction phasing and impact, and the analysis of existing and
proposed storm, sewer, and water facilities.
ASSIGN:
TAIT has in house expertise in public works roadway, water, sewer,
storm drain, surveying, hydrology/ hydraulics, pre/post construction
water quality control, architecture, and minor structural engineering
and analysis. Based on the scope of the project, TAIT's Senior
Project Manager will assign a lead Project Manager and/or Project
Engineer to each contract whose backgrounds best matches the
needs and complexity of the project. Key sub -consultants such as
geotechnical, traffic, landscaping, environmental, utility potholing
and right of way acquisition team members will then be assigned to
the project at this phase based on the needs of the project,
PLAN:
We will prepare and submit a clear and concise scope of work,
project schedule, and fee proposal that includes all necessary
tasks to successfully complete the contract. Key considerations in
the planning phase will include the funding source (local/state/
federal) and associated permitting/ documentation requirements,
stakeholder requirements/needs, level of design detail desired by
the City (plan/plan & profile), storm water quality requirements,
coordination and meeting needs, and the overall scheduling needs,
EXECUTE:
Upon issuance of the no€ice to proceed, TAIT will actively and
effectively execute the scope of work for the contract. An abridged
summary of a typical project scope of work has been included
below for Ctty review. Our assigned project monager will stay
in constant contact with the City and will remain available and
responsive to the City's needs through the life of the project.

QA/ QC:
TAIT employs our QA/QC program on each contract [hot we are
awarded. A QA/QC manager will be assigned to each project
to 1 j ensure a quality design is employed, 21 verify all agencies/
disciplines are coordinated 3) check constructability through review
of PS&E at each subrnTol, and 4) conduct an informal engineering
cost assessment to ensure compliance with the City's specific project
goals
RISK MANAGEMENT:
The greatest risk for delays in a project is the lack of foresight and
understanding of [he scope. With our proven work experience, high
caliber slaffing, and as a result of our 5 step project management
protocol, The City can be assured that our proposals are complete
and that our assigned team is fully qualifFed to design [he project.
Each proposal to the City will be accompanied with a detailed
project schedule that outlines key milestones, permitting needs,
plan submittals, agency review periods, and utility coordination/
notification dates. TAIT will also stay in close contact with the City
during the life of the project in order to ensure the project remains on
schedule.
SCHEDULE CONTROL:
The Project Manager is responsible for efficiently directing the
team and completing projects within the established budget. To
accomplish this, the Project Manager must authorize and approve
all time cards, work reports, change orders and expense sheets with
the current modules of BST (most accepted applicable accounting
system).
However, in cases where a project design has been delayed at
no fault of the City, TAIT Management would reassess assigned
personnel to the project, and review effort completed to make sure
design is on point and has not deviated from the agreed upon path.
Meelings with project team personnel would be held to review the
project and discuss options to accelerate design without impacting
quality and the required deliverables. Additional personnel,
overtime, and assignment of more senior level staff would be options
considered by TAIT Management to bring the project back on
schedule at no additional cost to the City.
COST CONTROL:
Cost control is also a central concern to our protect team. We
control our contract costs by actively [racking our project budget,
submitting invoices on time and in the format required by the agency,
and work with the City on design items to ensure full satisfaction.
TAIT also controls project costs by ensure our designs are accurate
and properly specified in order to ensure the Oty receives the best
bids possible. By controlling both the design as well as construction
costs, we are able 10 deliver a successful project to our clients and
ensure full satisfaction of our projects.
CLIENT SERVICE:
Our client service approach is to know and understand the client's
needs concerning the project, allowing us to assist the client as
if we are an extension of their own staff. TAIT will follow a set of
protocols established in our Project Instructions which will include
the development of monthly progress reports (including schedule
and budgei(, meeting attendance and reporting, and a clear
understanding with the Client as to all Action Items that have yet to
be completed.

QUALITY ASSURANCEZQUALITY
CONTROL PROGRAM:
An important feature of our design process is our Quality
Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Program. Mr. Broussard PE.,
QSD/P, oversees TAIT's QA/QC Program.
TAIT's QA/QC Program focuses on the following four primary
objectives:
1. To ensure that a quality design has been provided by following
our in-house design checklists
2. To verify that different disciplines and agencies have been
coordinated
3. To verify that the proposed improvements are constructible, and
4. To verify that a cost effective analysis approach was followed
to achieve the client's goals
TAIT utilizes a Total Quality Management approach.
TAIT's philosophy is that quality control begins at day one and does
not end until the project is constructed.
Quality Control is the responsibility of each and
every team member. II includes the selection of project team
members who have demonstrated through experience the ability to
understand and apply the project objectives to achieve a specific
goal. It requires open and continuous communications between all
team members and the client.
TAIT has developed internal design checklists. Design
checklists are used by our design team as a component of our Frm's
QC process.
Timely Quality Control Reviews are provided. Before
plans are submitted to outside parties and the approving agency/
agencies for review and approval, TAIT's QA/QC Manager or his
designated QC team member conducts a thorough review to verify
the quality, constructability and completeness of the submittal. A
typical TAIT QA/QC Program includes the following steps:
i Project Manager (PM) Transmits Design Documents
to the QA/QC Manager - The PM initiates the QC
process at agreed upon project milestones
2. QA/QC Manager conducts initial review - The QA/
QC Manager reviews the submittal with the PM to obtain
project specific information and conducts a limited review on
the completeness of the submittal.
3. Review of the Submittal — The submittal is reviewed using
TAIT's i--terral checklists Necessary corrections are ident;feed
on the submittal which is returned to the PM.
4. PM to Address QC Comments - The QA/QC Manager
and PM review the QC comments to set a course of action.
Any proposed Value Engineering (VE) measures are reviewed
to determine the appropriate next step. The reviewed
documents are then returned to the design team.
5 PM finalizes Design Documents for Submittal to
the Agency - The PM meets with the design team to monitor
progress and verify incorporation of the QC comments into
the design documents. Any deviation from the QC comment
or the agreed upon action is reviewed for acceptance prior
to transmitting the Final design documents to the City and other
reviewing parties for their review and approval.

contain, the following provisions:
A. Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured
pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation
against City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,
volunteers and employees or shall specifically allow Consultant or others
providing insurance evidence in compliance with these requirements to
waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Consultant hereby waives its
own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express
waivers from each of its subconsultants.
B. Additional Insured Status. All liability policies including general liability,

not including professional liability, shall provide or be endorsed to provide
that City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,
volunteers and employees shall be included as insureds under such

C. Primary and Non Contributory. All liability coverage shall apply on a
primary basis and shall not require contribution from any insurance or self-
insurance maintained by City.
D. Notice of Cancellation. All policies shall provide City with thirty (30)
calendar days' notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which ten
(10) calendar days' notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each

following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Consultant shall provide certificates of insurance
to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with
a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation and other
endorsements as specified herein for each coverage. Insurance
certificates and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk Manager
prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance
shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of this
Agreement. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy
Tait & Associates, Inc. Page C-2 7-234
shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on
its behalf. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of any such
policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has
been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is
cancelled or reduced, Consultant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of
written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the
City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been
reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or
companies. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of
all required insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Consultant sixty (60) calendar days' advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate
Consultant's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Consultant agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Consultant enters
into contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review.
Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any
liability on City, or its employees. Consultant shall require and verify that
all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated
herein, and Consultant shall ensure that City is an additional insured on
insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,
subcontractors shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as
CG20380413.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Consultant acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or
limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to
the City.
F. Self -insured Retentions. Any self -insured retentions must be declared to
and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self -insured
Tait & Associates, Inc. Page C-3 7-235
retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-
insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until
proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall,
at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Consultant's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes
no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve City.
I. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of
the Work.
