PURPOSE OF REQUEST The City of Seal Beach ("City") is requesting proposals from qualified and professional firms ("Consultant"), of various sizes and capacity, to provide comprehensive professional services on an on-call/as-needed basis. It is desirable that the successful Consultant(s) have the ability to provide in-house services, or capacity to sub-consult, for multiple disciplines.

An option to extend may be included in the agreement. The final agreement amount, term, and the number of firms will depend on the quality, diversity, and responsiveness of the received proposals. Due to the on-call/as-needed nature of this contract, no work is guaranteed, even if awarded. The scope, work schedule, and fee for each requested task will be negotiated on a project-by-project basis. The City reserves the right to not accept the Consultant's scope and fee. Page 4 of 17 II.

The result is successful design,documentation,and timely approval of projects. A crucial step is preparing a comprehensive scope of work that clearly identifies the Scope Development various project tasks and deliverables,including any assumptions. AZTEC uses Microsoft Project to monitor project progress and define critical path Critical Path Method Scheduling tasks. If any schedule changes are anticipated,we will promptly notify the City and submit an updated schedule and plan. We will maintain project momentum by following the agreed-to schedule.We will Project Initiation hold regular project meetings that includes an agenda to provide structure for all participants. Decisions regarding items and critical issues requiring resolution will be documented in meeting minutes that become part of the project file. Every project involves matters that require discussion and agreement between the affected parties. AZTEC fosters a partnership between all members of the Project Critical Issues Team to achieve"buy-in",so stakeholder expectations are met. Early identification, resolution,and documentation of critical issues is imperative to keeping each TO assignment on schedule and within budget. To build a solid foundation for accurate scheduling, budgeting,and funding,we will Preliminary Engineering conduct and document a field review(s)when we initially scope each task order. We strongly encourage that at least one Project Team Meeting be held in the field to provide a better understanding of project issues for all members of the Project Team. Eliminating unnecessary design changes is an important element of cost control.We Contract Administration will inform you as soon as possible of any potential or proposed scope revisions that will affect the established budget. Budget Control Regular monitoring through AZTEC's Deltek Accounting System will help to identify any scope change affecting project costs. On a monthly or as-needed basis, we will meet with the City and other involved Project Progress and Design Review stakeholders. Project objectives,schedule,and work progress will be discussed to Meetings identify and resolve critical issues promptly,and address budget issues and other related items. Coordination and Communication with Maintaining open communication and having the entire Project Team commit to a Public Agencies cooperative teamwork environment will result in the resolution of critical issues in a timely manner. During design, interaction with jurisdictional agencies and other affected entities Project Delivery and Coordination (i.e., utility companies) may be needed.
