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
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
Michael K. Nunley & Associates, Inc. Page 5
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.
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.

regular basis regarding the status and progress of the Project, activities performed and
planned, and any meetings that have been scheduled or are desired.

of Work, Consultant shall obtain, provide and maintain at its own expense during the
term of this Agreement or for other periods as specified in this Agreement, policies of
insurance of the type, amounts, terms and conditions described in the Insurance
Requirements attached hereto as Exhibit C, and incorporated herein by reference.
15. PROHIBITION AGAINST ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS
Except as specifically authorized under this Agreement, the Services to be
provided under this Agreement shall not be assigned, transferred contracted or
subcontracted out without the prior written approval of City. Any of the following shall
be construed as an assignment: The sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of
any of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Consultant, or of the interest of any
general partner or joint venturer or syndicate member or cotenant if Consultant is a
partnership or joint -venture or syndicate or co -tenancy, which shall result in changing
the control of Consultant. Control means fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting
power or twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the assets of the corporation, partnership
or joint -venture.
Michael K. Nunley & Associates, Inc. Page 6
16. SUBCONTRACTING
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 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
establishing a duty of care between the subcontractor and City. Except as specifically
authorized herein, the Services to be provided under this Agreement shall not be
otherwise assigned, transferred, contracted or subcontracted out without the prior
written approval of City.

implementing this Agreement, shall become the exclusive property of City, and City
shall have the sole right to use such materials in its discretion without further

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

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.

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

Michael K. Nunley & Associates, Inc. Page 8
22. WITHHOLDINGS

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

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

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.

Communication Tools and Approach
Our approach to communication is frequent and
focused. To complete this Project Manager, Ryan
Gallagher, will hold bi-weekly internal meetings
with the Project Team followed by meetings with
the City's Project Manager.
MKN utilizes several tools to support our Project
Managers in communicating expectations, project
status and project plan, including the following:
1. Project Management Plan. This standard
form is completed at the start of the project
and serves as our team's internal roadmap.
2. Microsoft Project Schedule. Our standard
includes line items for QC, Client Review,
and hard dates for Deliverables.
3. Earned Value Analysis. Our standard
spreadsheets are shared with the Client and
ensure we are on budget and schedule
throughout the project.
4. Budget Management Software. Our billing
software (BillQuick V20) provides for up to
date budget, billing and payment details.
Our technical teams also utilize tools such as the
latest AutoCAD, GIS and Modeling software
(including both Bentley and Innovyze products) to
support execution of project work. For construction,
our teams utilize Procore, EADocs and Bluebeam.
Microsoft Teams provides a platform that increases
communication, documentation and transparency,
while also minimizing the effort required by the
City's Project Manager.

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
yr� 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

2015 Water Master Plan Update I 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.
