C t' of Sea Seam R ajes-fc cesa s fc na De-Jess one Se 2s sc_ "es 14 COMPANY QUALIFICATIONS QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL APPROACH BKF's Quality Assurance program roots itself on the premise that in order to achieve quality deliverables and a quality project, it must resonate throughout the design and documentation process. A well-defined work plan will integrate the design parameters and goals. These include great communication to ensure the plan is implemented, internal checklists to verify the results, and proactive construction support. Collectively, these principles facilitate successful projects. BKF has a proven track record of performing consulting services that develop projects of the highest quality. Our goal is to deliver innovative design solutions completed on schedule and within budget. QUALITY IS ENHANCED BY INTERNAL QA/QC • Two weeks before any scheduled submittal, BKF will complete an internal review of our documents. Depending on the scope of work, the appropriate Project Manager will check the documents for errors, perform a constructability review, and suggest cost-saving alternatives. The documents will be corrected in the final week before the submittal. Depending on the scope of work, the appropriate QA/QC Manager will utilize BKF's Quality Control Checklist as the basis for documenting his review. The design team also uses these. BKF QUALITY CONTROL CHECKLIST • As part of the quality control process, BKF company-standard design checklists are utilized on every project to make sure all relevant design items are shown on the plans and that no surprises pop up in the design. Checklist items include critical construction items such as underground gravity pipe conflict checks, appropriate and accurate annotation of grades, plan and profile cross-checks, and sewer- water pipe clearances to meet state health requirements. Also, to ensure functional and readable plans, BKF uses checklists for generic items such as north arrows and scales, appropriate text heights, street names, etc. By keeping an eye on critical design items and applying close attention to detail to plans, BKF emphasizes its commitment to quality design services. QUALITY IS CONSTRUCTION CONTROL • The final part of BKF's Quality Assurance program is founded in the Construction Process. Through a proactive construction support approach, BKF helps to resolve field issues quickly. This "can do" approach typically leads to clear directives during construction with good communication, quick response time, and successful project completion.

We will assist the City in developing creative solutions to challenges as we have done so on previous projects. The continuity and long tenure of our staff is evidence that the personnel who we have committed to this On-Call will see the various projects through from start to finish. Each team member is cross trained and has a clear understanding of their role for each assignment. This will allow each team member to properly allocate their resources and make the necessary commitments to the project team. The following is a sample of our scope of services and will be revised according to the needs of each project issued by the City. PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROJECT MANAGEMENT • Category Specific BKF Project Managers will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the project design team, including the technical management of the project. PROJECT KICKOFF MEETING/PUBLIC OUTREACH/PDT MEETINGS • BKF will develop the agenda, invite project team members and stakeholders and administer a project kick-off meeting. This meeting will confirm project scope, deliverables, schedule, communication conduits, invoicing, and establish future Project Development Team (PDT) meetings. BKF will prepare meeting minutes and distribute to all in attendance for review and concurrence. Our team will attend Project Development Meetings, Public Outreach, and City Council Meetings to support City Staff and the convey the Project goals. MASTER PROJECT SCHEDULE/PROGRESS REPORTS • Upon receipt of a task order from the City, we will provide a Project Master Schedule in Microsoft Project to the City. The schedule will be updated and distributed during PDT meetings to confirm the Project is tracking according to expectations. BKF will prepare progress reports indicating current tasks, outstanding items, schedule monitoring, and future anticipated meetings. The progress reports will be prepared and submitted monthly to the City Project Manager prior to the 15th of every month for the duration of the project. MONTHLY INVOICING • BKF will collect, review and compile invoices from the design team on a monthly basis and will provide the City with the teams composite invoice. Invoices will delineate the current percent complete by task which along with the project schedule can be used to confirm effort, payment, and deliverables are in agreement. PROJECT MANAGEMENT - DELIVERABLES • Master Schedule and Updates • Meeting Agendas and Minutes • Invoices • Monthly Status/Progress Reports • Public Outreach Concept Plans and Drawings • Public Outreach Materials AGENCY AND UTILITY COORDINATION STAKEHOLDER COMMUNICATION • We will engage with the project stakeholders during the early phase of work. The BKF team will reach out and communicate with the project stakeholders, and update the contact person as necessary. As part of this effort, we will: • Make necessary contacts with districts, parks and recreation or other involved agencies concerning facilities to determine design requirements for the construction of new facilities and structures. • Coordinate with all affected agencies, including school districts, utilities, irrigation districts and government agencies, as necessary. • Communicate with property owners as necessary. C y of Sea 3each 4 c ,es fc °r000sa s for C� Ca �-cfess c-a ;so o res 16 �� COMPANY QUALIFICATIONS UTILITY RESEARCH AND COORDINATION • Our standard practice when starting a new project is to engage the utility companies early in the project, and pro-actively work with them to protect their utilities, or to determine ideal relocation routes. We start by establishing the lines of communication with utility companies present within the project area, such as City of Seal Beach Municipal Utilities Company, Southern California Gas Company, Southern California Edison and coordinate with the City of Seal Beach Public Works Department as needed, by sending out Utility "A" Letters requesting for their record drawings and as-builts. Once we have received all the as-builts and record drawings from each agency, we will incorporate the existing facilities into the utility base mapping in AutoCAD format. Upon completion of the utility base mapping, we will schedule a meeting simultaneously with all third-party utility companies in an "all-hands" meeting. At that meeting, we will present the project and identify utilities needing relocation. Most importantly, we will discuss the timeline for when the utility requires relocation to maintain the project schedule. At this "all-hands" utility meeting, these utility companies are able to coordinate with each other and find opportunities to be in joint relocations reducing their construction costs and reduce their relocation schedules. We will distribute the Utility "B" Letters with the composite utility plans, and request that they confirm their existing and future facilities. All the gathered utility information will update our comprehensive utility map and matrix that were used to supplement the project base sheets to provide a complete existing utility base. This level of effort will minimize construction costs and ensure the correct placement of the proposed improvements. As part of the utility coordination work, we will: • Review and update as-built utility information • Request utility mapping from all affected utility owners • Update base mapping with existing utility information • Based on our understanding of the utilities and the impact of our project on those utilities, we are not anticipating needing any potholing • Submit utility maps to impacted utility owners for verification • Identify potential utility conflicts • Coordinate the above work with the utility owners AGENCY & UTILITY COORDINATION- DELIVERABLES • Utility Map and Matrix • Utility Notification Letters • Meeting Agendas and Minutes • Utility Meetings • Existing Conditions Base Mapping PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING DESIGN SURVEY: BKF will establish project survey controls, both vertically and horizontally, on the City datum and will set panels for the aerial survey. In areas where more detailed surveying will be required, BKF field crews will conduct a supplemental survey to gather information on critical points (i.e., CL, BCR, ECR, flow lines, edge of gutter) grades, utility structures, and other items necessary to complete the design. In addition, using available record information, BKF will review, research, and tie-in the existing right of way for the project limits. Our survey crews utilize Leica and Trimble robotic total stations, Trimble R10 GPS receivers, and a Leica C10 & P40 high-definition laser scanner. With the use of Leica P40 HDS Scanners, BKF has the ability to collect high resolution point cloud data at 1,000,000 points per second. The data gathered allows the ability to create 3-dimensional models of projects, including as-built surveys, topographical site surveys, roadway and highway surveys, ADA surveys, buildings, bridges, striping, and utility plants.

This is the opportunity to not only identify key issues and concerns, but identify and determine the scope and limits of work. To minimize construction cost, we will work closely with the City staff to identify critical items of work and satisfy the City's vision in revitalizing its community. We will create an inventory of the field conditions, identifying areas that are non-ADA compliant to make recommendations to satisfy the standard requirements. As part of this task, a Field Condition Assessment Memo and a Photo Diary will be prepared and submitted. NATIONAL POLLUTION DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM (NPDES) PROGRAM COMPLIANCE • If required, our team can prepare an NPDES compliance memo which identifies the applicable NPDES Technical Documents and proposed Best Management Practices (BMPs). Possible Technical Documents may include, but are not limited to, a Water Quality Management Plan, Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), or Storm Water Pollution Control Program (WPCP) as required by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Caltrans, or other state and federal agencies. A draft NPDES compliance memo will be submitted to the City for review and comments. Upon receiving of the review comments, the comments will be incorporated into the final NPDES compliance memo. Following NPDES compliance concurrence, the prescribed NPDES Technical Documents will be prepared. PAVEMENT INVESTIGATION • On pavement rehabilitation projects, our Team will initially perform visual inspections. Based on the visual inspection of the existing pavement, we will identify the cause of any pavement failure such that an effective reconstruction/rehabilitation strategy can be developed. We will explore the site's subgrade soil condition and provide recommendations for the structural pavement section, as well as grading requirements for construction of the pavement, curb, gutter, and sidewalk. City of Se& Beach I Request for Proposals for On-Cali Professional Services for Various Disciplines 18 // COMPANY QUALIFICATIONS GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION • BKF Engineers subconsultant, Ninyo and Moore, will provide, based on literature review, field explorations, laboratory testing, engineering analyses, and constructability reviews. The field exploration type, equipment, location, depth, and sampling pattern will be carefully selected so that required data is collected in an efficient manner. We will develop design solutions that are innovative yet practical and readily constructible, considering site constraints, design requirements, existing subsurface conditions, and long-term performance. Should on-site infiltration using BMP facilities is planned, we will evaluate the percolation characteristics of the site soils using appropriate site-specific percolation tests. The feasibility evaluation of the proposed BMP facilities should appropriately address the depth to groundwater and settlement/hydro collapse concerns of underlying soils. We will prepare and submit the Draft and Final Geotechnical Investigation Report, as well as the electronic version to the City. HYDROLOGY/HYDRAULICS/DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS • Based on the needs of a project, our Team will initiate the drainage design by performing a hydrology study of the drainage areas tributary to the project area. The hydrology study will typically consist of a Rational Method analysis performed with software developed by Advanced Engineering Software (AES).The software was designed to accept watershed data and perform Rational Method analyses in accordance with the Orange County Department of Public Works Hydrology Manual.The hydrology study will determine 10- and 25-year peak discharges at locations critical to flood water management. Projects will be evaluated with respect to current water quality requirements as defined by the County's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit as issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. Once the requirements are established, preliminary plans for the implementation of storm water quality Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be developed in parallel with the design of the flood control elements of the Project.This parallel approach will result in an integrated water quality and flood control plan. DRAFT CONCEPT PLANS • BKF will prepare the Draft Concept Plans that includes the critical elements of the project. These conceptual plans will depict the various design alternatives and aesthetic options the City will select from to progress to the Final Design. With the budget permitting, a 3D visualization in support of public presentations and council meetings may be developed. Photosimulations (a technique in which proposed conditions are superimposed on photographs) shall be used to convey the various alternatives to City Council and project stakeholders. We will capture ground and aerial photography, which the City will be able to provide input on the preferred ground and aerial perspective for use in the photosimulations. The exhibits shall include: • Existing and proposed view from an aerial perspective • Existing and proposed view from a ground perspective INITIAL STUDY • BKF Subconsultant, LSA, will prepare an Initial Study briefly summarizing the proposed project, the existing project setting, and potential project impacts related to each of the environmental resource topics contained in the Environmental Information Form, which is provided as Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The purpose of this Initial Study will be to provide the City with express findings related to each of these thresholds, thereby providing the City with the information needed to decide whether a Categorical Exemption is applicable to the proposed project. Otherwise if the Initial Study determines the Project may have significant impacts requiring mitigation then the Initial Study will serve as the basis for an IS/MND. FINAL ENGINEERING We will advance the preliminary concept plans to the final design level that have been reviewed and selected by the City.

City of Sea,Beach i Request for Proposals for 11111 On-Call Professional Services for Various Disco nes 20 COMPANY QUALIFICATIONS GRANT SERVICES BKF's grants and funding team will oversee the successful completion of any grant funding plan from beginning to end. This is accomplished by employing our version of a tactical 4-step approach as outlined below. Using these methods, the team effectively cuts costs and maximizes client time by building a solid foundation of funding support for each project or program. This foundation allows the team to write a myriad of proposals (federal, state, municipal, foundation) that build on or complement one another and allows the team to quickly and efficiently draw from previous proposals rather than reinventing the wheel every time a new grant begins. This efficiency results in cost savings for the City as we develop detailed templates for each project that can be used for multiple grants. We have several proprietary grant-related search engines and a variety of list services which enhance our research and ability to track and forecast all federal, state, local, and private foundation funding opportunities. We track current and upcoming grants so that we can advise our clients on feasible funding strategies that best match our client's goals and needs. After identifying viable grant opportunities, we provide on-going evaluation of the strength of the client's grant proposal based on a grant's evaluation criteria and scoring matrix. Getting to Know You BKF starts the grant process by getting to know our client and their needs.We work with them to develop a strategic and comprehensive funding plan. Factors such as the demographics of the municipality where the project is located and whether it is an urban or rural city play a large part in assessing the viability of certain grant opportunities. BKF is continually evaluating and looking out for any issues that might arise while pursuing funding. 2 Grant Funding Research & Identification BKF works with our client to review the current project funding levels and sources to determine appropriate funding targets and amounts. We contact funding agencies to review project goals, better assess grant viability, and consult with our client on which grants to pursue. BKF can prepare a grant package with several grant targets or a comprehensive grant calendar with a schedule of grant applications to develop monthly. This collaborative approach positions the client for the best possible outcome. 3 Grant Proposal Development After funding targets have been identified, BKF implements its grant proposal management system to provide a seamless proposal development and submittal process.This includes a comprehensive kick- off meeting and grant overview, with an outline of deliverables and internal/external due dates. Next, we lead the grant proposal development in collaboration with our client. Our job is to guide our client through the grant proposal process to a successful grant application submittal. 4 Grant Compliance & Management From start to finish, BKF maintains regular and consistent communication with our clients, keeping them informed on the status of their applications and the decision-making process. When grants require post award compliance, BKF can provide continued reporting, administration, and/or management on our client's behalf. :,aa ;_ • a 1101 21 REFERENCES RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE & REFERENCES WILLOW STREET PAVEMENT PROJECT, "` Long Beach, CA 'j As part of our On-Call contract, BKF Engineers prepared and submitted -,T4 " • the construction documents to the City if Long Beach for the pavement - = rehabilitation of Willow Street between San Vincente Street and Studebaker _ Road.
