Consultant's bills shall include a brief description of the services performed, the date the services were performed, the number of hours spent and by whom, and a description of any reimbursable expenditures.

Ownership of Documents. All plans, studies, documents and other writings prepared by and for Consultant, its officers, employees and agents and subcontractors in the course of implementing this Agreement, except working notes and internal documents, shall become the property of the City upon payment to Consultant for such work, and the City shall have the sole right to use such materials in its discretion without further 13 compensation to Consultant or to any other party. Consultant shall, at Consultant's expense, provide such reports, plans, studies, documents and other writings to City upon written request.
6 Independent Contractor. It is understood that Consultant, in the performance of the work and services agreed to be performed, shall act as and be an independent contractor and shall not act as an agent or employee of the City. Consultant shall obtain no rights to retirement benefits or other benefits which accrue to City's employees, and Consultant hereby expressly waives any claim it may have to any such rights.

Interest of Consultant. Consultant (including principals, associates and professional employees) covenants and represents that it does not now have any investment or interest in real property and shall not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, in the area covered by and during this Agreement or any other source of income, interest in real property or investment which would be affected in any manner or degree by the performance of Consultant's services hereunder. Consultant further covenants and represents that in the performance of its duties hereunder no person having any such interest shall perform any services under this Agreement.

Consultant is not a designated employee within the meaning of the Political Reform Act because Consultant:
a. will conduct research and arrive at conclusions with respect to his/her rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel independent of the control and direction of the City or of any City official, other than normal agreement monitoring; and
b. possesses no authority with respect to any City decision beyond rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel. (FPPC Reg. 18700(a)(2).) Professional Ability of Consultant. City has relied upon the professional training and ability of Consultant to perform the services hereunder as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. Consultant shall therefore provide properly skilled professional and technical personnel to perform all services under this Agreement. All work performed by Consultant under this Agreement shall be in accordance with applicable legal requirements and shall meet the standard of quality ordinarily to be expected of competent professionals in Consultant's field of expertise.

Indemnity. Consultant agrees to indemnify, including the cost to defend, the City, and its officers, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, costs or liability that arise out of, or pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant and its agents in the performance of services under this contract. This indemnity does not apply to liability for damages for death or bodily injury to persons, injury to property, or other loss, damage or expense arising from the sole negligence, 14 willful misconduct or defects in design by the City or its agents, servants, or independent contractors who are directly responsible to the City, or the active negligence of the City.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Consultant shall (1) immediately defend and (2) indemnify the City, and its councilmembers, officers, agents, and employees from and against all liabilities regardless of nature or type that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Consultant, or its employees, agents, or subcontractors. Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnity include, without limitation, all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. The Consultant's obligation to indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability is caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party, then Consultant's indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability.
(b) The duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from Consultant's duty to indemnify. Consultant shall be obligated to defend, in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by the City, the City and its councilmembers, officers, agents, and employees, immediately upon tender to Consultant of the claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Consultant are responsible for the claim does not relieve Consultant from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Consultant asserts that liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party, Consultant may submit a claim to the City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys' fees and defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of the indemnified party. (c) The review, acceptance or approval of the City's work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the City's indemnification or defense obligations. This Section survives completion of the services or the termination of this contract. The provisions of this Section are not limited by and do not affect the provisions of this contract relating to insurance.

•ROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, GEOTECHNICAL AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR THE "ALLE' MPROVEMENTS PROJECT PHASE I, 2 &3", IN THE CITY OF CALEXICO, C/

INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Calexico Department of Public Works is requesting proposals from qualified and experienced construction management and field inspection professionals to provide Resident Engineer and Construction Inspection Services for the above-mentioned project. The services are anticipated to be full time for the duration of the construction work.

Project Background
The City of Calexico is proposing to pave approximately 3.46 miles of unpaved alleyways in Calexico. The Alley Improvement Project - Phase I, II & Ill will consist of grading base and subgrade preparation for installation of class I base, remove and replace concrete curb and gutter, driveways, surveying work, utility adjustments and traffic control. There are sections of gutter that do not have a proper drainage slope, consequently, the contractor's surveyor must survey these areas to provide a positive flow profile so the street can drain by gravity Contract Administration Procedures
The purpose of the Proposal is to provide the City Public Works Department with the assurance that this City administered project is constructed in substantial compliance with the plans and specifications and that all local, state, and federal provisions (where applicable) required due to the specific funding requirements are adhered to. An important objective is to maintain a level of high quality Resident Engineer and Construction Inspection services through appropriate documentation and workflow methodology in the most cost-effective manner possible.

The contract will be regulated according to the provisions of all State and local laws and ordinances that are applicable. This includes compliance with prevailing wage rates and their payment in accordance with California Labor Code, Section 1775. It will be critical on this project to provide prevailing wage services. This includes providing prevailing wage training seminar to the Prime Contractor and Subcontractors, reviewing certified payrolls for proper labor classification/wages, EEO monitoring, reviewing correlation of payrolls and extra work billings, review of placement of proper posters, investigations, recommending possible deductions for violations and discrepancies, conducting field interviews and site audits.

Keeping the prevailing wage files in order will be critical.

PROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, GEOTECHNICAL AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR THE "ALLEY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT PHASE 1, 2 &3", IN THE CITY OF CALEXICO, CA The Resident Engineer is very familiar with the project and will become very familiar with the project files to ensure that any questions from Caltrans during an audit can be answered.

Documents will be filed correctly and indexed for quick reference.

The project will be administered per the LAPM chapter 16. This includes reviewing working days, contract time requirements, documenting time extensions. The Engineer's Daily Reports will be per 16-C in the LAPM. DCE will complete Exhibit 16-A, "Weekly Statement of Working Days" form CEM-2701 on a weekly basis.

The work will be inspected to assure compliance with the contract documents, plans and specifications. Deviations will promptly be brought to the contractor's attention. Material samples will be taken, and tests performed as noted in Section 16.14 of the LAPM or in accordance with the City's Quality Assurance Program. DCE will record the engineer's and inspector's activities, as noted in Section 16.7 of the LAPM.

Dynamic Consulting Engineers, Inc. "the DCE Difference" There are many professional firms that can provide Construction Management and Inspection Services. But no two companies are the same. At DCE we go above and beyond to assure the project is completed per the plans and specifications with minimal impacts to the community. Our team of Construction Managers and Inspectors get closely involved with the community, especially with residents and local businesses located along the project to inform them of the construction activities and the impacts to their daily activities and/or operations.

We maintain effective communication with the residents and local business and listen to their concerns. This minimizes or avoids potential complaints to the City from impacts due to construction activities. We will work closely with the Contractor, the City and the community to assure the project progresses as efficiently as possible. Our Construction Manager and Inspector are both fluent in English and Spanish and can communicate effectively with local businesses, local residents, local schools and all agencies affected by the construction activities. DCE will oversee the project site to make sure the contractor is providing a safe work environment for all construction workers as well as safe environment for vehicular traffic and pedestrian traffic. DCE understand safety is imperative in every project and a priority to the City.

DCE's Construction Manager/RE and Inspector have extensive experience working on street improvement projects throughout the Imperial Valley.

PROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, GEOTECHNICAL AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR THE "ALLEY INPROVEMENTS PROJECT PHASE I, 2 83", IN THE CITY OF CALEXICO, CA pavement striping, and raising utility covers to finish pavement grade. Our staff assisted the County to keep the project within the budget by finding cost saving measures that did not interfere with the anticipated longevity of the project. Although the pavement was failing in many areas, total rehabilitation was not necessary because of the ARAM. One recurring issue on this project was that the Contractor was concerned of overrunning the AC tonnages due to the existing uneven surface of the roadway. This was controlled by DCE staff, as the tonnages were monitored daily and the thickness of the AC was checked continuously as it was being laid. This project was a success, both for the County of Imperial and the Town of Seeley.

This project included the construction of a new roadway between McCabe Road and Correll Road. Signing and striping were also completed. One issue that occurred on the project site was that a shallow IID pipe was discovered during the roadway excavation. The inspector/field engineer on site assisted the County in a redesign of that portion of the roadway to ensure that there would be enough cover over the pipe, after coordination with the IID water department. Also, there was an area on site that was pumping profusely during the excavation process. The inspector recommended that geogrid be placed down in the overexcavated area to help bridge the material and to cover the grid with Class Base up to the finished subgrade elevation.

IMPERIAL COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT (FEDERALLY FUNDED AND

ADMINISTERED BY CALTRANS) - CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT OF FORRESTER ROAD AND EVAN HEWES HIGHWAY SIGNALIZATION PROJECT. FEDERAL FUNDED

PROJECT
Members of our staff performed Resident Engineering responsibilities, including coordination of project with the IID water and power divisions. This project included the installation of a new traffic signal at the intersection of Forrester Road and Evan Hewes Highway, as well as overlaying the existing AC pavement. The Resident Engineer was able to foresee a few issues and implement solutions before they became a large problem. One of these issues was the existing utilities that were located in the intersection; prompt coordination with the IID ensured that this issue was addressed as soon as possible. Also, the intersection was redesigned in the field by the Resident Engineer to rid it of a low point that would have caused vehicles to bottom out while driving through. Finally, the stop bars were moved back as a result of the recommendation made by DCE to allow for better turning movements for large wheel-based vehicles. Observe construction to ensure contractor complied with plans and specifications and Caltrans requirements. Implement Labor Standards, complete all required forms, maintained records of construction activities and photographs per Caltrans standard filing system.

Reviewed and observed contractor's traffic control plan to keep this busy intersection of Evan Hewes and Forrester open and safe for local traffic during the intersection overlay. DCE implemented all required Labor Standards, completed all required forms, and maintained records/photographs of construction activities and per Caltrans standard filing system.

APPROACH TO MANAGING AND COMPLETING THE PROJECT:

APPROACH TO PROJECT AND PHILOSOPHY
DCE's philosophy for providing management of the construction activities are as follows:

Making a project a success by:
• Communicating effectively with the Client, Contractor, affected residents and utility companies, and working in a partnership with the Contractor. Constant and open communication with the affected public goes a long way to contributing to the success of the project. Community relationships are Important and we work hard to ensure that we communicate and address any concerns In the community for all projects.
• Providing full time inspection that insures that the project is bullt according to the plans and specifications. In some cases flexibility is Important. Many times the Contractor has very good Ideas on how to solve problems in the field. We believe in listening to all sides and recommending the best alternative, even If it is not our own.
• Providing a QA/QC effort focused on:
• Safety Management
• Risk Management
• Contract Administration
• Change Order Management
• RFl Management
• Submittal Management

PROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, GEOTECHNICAL AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR THE "ALLEY ¡AAPROVEMENTS PROJECT PHASE I, 2 83", IN THE CITY OF CALEXICO, CA Document Management
• Progress Meetings
• Photo Management
• Dispute/Claims Management
• Scheduling Milestones and Management
• Reporting (Daily, Monthly, Accident, Special)
• Schedule of Values/Pay Applications
• QA/Inspection
• Community Relations
Prevent delays by:
• Review and analyze the Contractor's schedule before construction. If there are any potential for not meeting milestones, we will review those Items with the Contractor and assist with a solution. • Responding to issues that arise quickly. It Is Imperative that Issues be solved quickly before they turn into potential claims. We will work with the Contractor to find solutions that all parties agree to. • Responding to RFls and Submittals quickly. We belleve that responses to RFls and Submittals should be done Immediately. Sometimes the Contractor will need to stop work until a response is received. If possible we address questions in the field, and base our answers on the plans and specifications. If there is not an answer in the plans and specs we use our engineering experience to recommend a solution that the County approves.

Prevent Claims by:
• Providing staff with significant and relevant project experience. The staff will become Intimately familiar with the plans and specifications and must be proactive to be able to resolve issues at the lowest levels before any issues arise. This Is very important for claims management. We will provide all of the skills needed to cover the specialized required areas such as earthwork and special Inspections (dewatering, bore and lack).
• Documenting, documenting, documenting - Ensuring that the project documentation is kept organized and avallable for the City to review. Keeping excellent field notes and daily reports, including a plethora of project photos.
• Listening to the Contractor's concerns and sincerely working together for a mutually acceptable solution. We are sensitive to the need to have a seamless team that integrates the City's staff and the design engineer. We belleve that we can give the City well-rounded Input based on our experience for construction contract decision making.

Keeping it professional - treating each stakeholder in a professional and consistent manner. Once the contractors know our expectations, see that the documents are being interpreted in a consistent manner, and that all stakeholders are being treated in a falr and equitable manner, they will respond in a like manner. This will create fewer problems in administering the project. The contract documents set the standards of construction and the interpretation of these documents in a reasonable manner will make for a harmonious construction management atmosphere.
