TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
BY: MATTHEW BAUMGARDNER, P.E., DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC
WORKS/CITY ENGINEER
DATE: JANUARY 23, 2024
SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2024-2026 ON -CALL CIVIL ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City Council will discuss or consider approving staff's pre -qualified list of on -call civil engineering consultants to provide the City with civil engineering services on an as - needed basis over a three-year period during Fiscal Year 2023-2024 and continuing through Fiscal Year 2026-2027 with an option to renew the approved list for three additional one-year periods.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Approve the following list of seven on -call civil engineering consultants, which have been pre -qualified by staff: 1) BKF Engineers, Inc., 2) Kreuzer Consulting Group, 3) MKN Consulting Services, 4) Rick Engineering Co., 5) Stantec Consulting Services, 6) Tetra Tech, and 7) Willdan Engineering;
2. Approve the Professional Services Agreement template for on -call civil engineering services, and
3. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the agreement with the pre - qualified consultants on a per -project basis in the future in a form acceptable by the City Attorney and to execute any and all amendments to the agreement as deemed necessary for any future projects or tasks to be completed by said consultants.
BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department occasionally has a need to contract out civil engineering - related services to professional engineering consultants to assist the Department with the completion of various projects and tasks. This allows staff to supplement its resources with more specific expertise as well as leverage additional assistance during busier times of the year. Examples of work that has been completed through the subject on -call services in the past include preliminary engineering, final design, plans, specifications, and estimates for the following types of projects in support of the City's Capital Improvement Program:

o Street improvements and intersection widening
o Pavement and infrastructure rehabilitation and reconstruction o Water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure improvements o Water well and water treatment improvements
o Streetscape enhancements
o "Green Street" projects
o Drainage infrastructure
o Sidewalk, curb ramp and other pedestrian circulation improvements o Median Island Construction
The City last procured the services of on -call civil engineering consultants in 2017, and the respective professional services agreements of the on -call firms have since expired.
Therefore, the City is ready to engage the services of new on -call consultants for the next round of civil engineering services on an as -needed basis over the next three years (Fiscal Year 2024-2026) with an option to extend up to an additional three years to 2029.
ANALYSIS
A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the subject professional services was published on Planet Bids on September 15, 2023. On October 13, 2023, a total of 12 Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) were received from civil engineering firms in response to the RFQ.
An evaluation panel consisting of three Engineering Division employees was assembled to review the SOQs and evaluate and rank the consultants accordingly based on the following seven evaluation criteria (with corresponding weight):

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
TYPICAL PROJECT APPROACH
BKF Engineers recognize that an organized On -Call project delivery approach is critical for project success. We understand that managing, building consensus, and obtaining project approvals and permits are often more challenging than preparing the actual design documents. Ensuring that these processes are managed will allow projects tobedelivered mnschedule and within budget.
BKFs management philosophy integrates the following key components-, managing the process; defining the critical issues; developing coordinated design documents; and validating implementation, COMPONENT1. MANAG|NGTHE PROCESS
PROJECTWORK When the City identifies ascope specific project, our Principal -in -Charge, -- Chris Rideout, PE will be available to meet and review the Project goals. Based on the specific tasks provided, will assign a team who will be committed to the Project for the duration, We will develop e detailed project work program that identifies tasks and deliverables tailored to deliver the Project.VVeintendfurthis work program to be a living document that we update regularly to reflect the progress and needs of the Project.
DEF|NEEDULVVewjUdeve |oIs ourworkprmgnamwith refenencetpa schedu|ein M ic rosoft P rojectfmmnat Our dedicated Project Managers will update the schedule with the completion of each phase, discuss and gain concurrence with the City. The schedule is a critical tool for the Project Team, City, and other Stakeholders to ensure all agree to the tasks and delivery dates. It is imperative to regularly review the baseline schedule and identify any potential tasks that are slipping behind schedule. If this situation occurs, our PK4s will work with the team toestablish arecovery plan tobring the design schedule back into alignment with the baseline schedule. This recovery schedule will be discussed with the City to ensure concurrence moving forward, I ) F �,, "N !"I" � The BKF team will develop a fee for our services based on the agreed to scope of services and schedule. m COMPONENT2:DEF8N|NG CMTICAL.|SSQES

This early establishment and agreement with the City on the geometrics will allow the ProjectTeamhz identify critical issues, such as right of way acquisitions and utility relocations that require lengthy lead times that may affect the Project schedu|eandbudget.
DEFINING CONSTRUCT|()N RISK: Risk assessment is key to managing the overall construction budget, Our experience isthat characterizing subsurface soils and utilities is critical to managing unknowns that could lead to montnactorchangeonderend/orde|aya.8KFwiUworkwithCi1yStafftoidendfvonanyenvinonmenta|considenationy/ mitigations early on in the project to ensure the project stays on schedule and can meet the environmental needs ofthe project asthe design iadeveloped. Comprehensive Construction Staging and Traffic Hand|ingp|ansdepicting vehicle/pedestrian circulation as well as efficient Contractor work areas are critical in clearly showing the intent/limit of any closures,
STAKEHOLDERS: Understanding the concerns of the P ject's stakeholders at the earliest stage in the design process is essential to prevent delays or conflicts. BIKE will coordinate and attend all meetings to understand goals and objectives of all stakeholders and confirm they are aligned properly with the City. Engaging all stakeholders from the beginning of the design process through construction will minimize misunderstandings and will result inaproject that meets all objectives.

KCG has created a network of resources, both in-house and through long-standing relationships with quality subconsultants, to provide clients with "one -stop shopping" in all of the technical disciplines necessary to address these issues. Services provided by the KCG team include:
KCG staff have worked extremely hard over the years to establish the firm's reputation as engineers who will "go the extra mile" for our clients. We are proud of this reputation.
RELEVANT EXPERIENCE: A big part of our firms practice includes the provision of design services through on -call engineering contracts. The following summarizes our current on -call design services contracts:

Section 4.0 herein provides a more detailed description of KCG's relevant project experience.
K
The Kreuzer Consulting Group (KCG) is a firm comprised of individuals who have spent their entire professional careers serving the public sector in Southern California.
We are led by our President, Rick Kreuzer, who has 40 years of experience in the Public Works engineering industry. Our firm is a small firm (12 staff) which can provide a broad range of services to our clients. We currently have active on -call engineering contracts with multiple departments in the City of Anaheim, as well as with the Cities of Long Beach, Tustin, Brea, San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente, Arcadia, Lake Forest, Newport Beach, Gardena and Culver City.
We also maintain strong relationships with subconsulting support firms that share our philosophy of hands-on principal involvement on all projects. Depending on a particular project's needs, this team would consist of some, or all, of the following firms:
• Clark & Green — Landscape Architecture
• Hartzog & Crabill — Traffic Engineering
KCG has worked extensively with these firms on past projects with great success.
Our in-house staff are second to none. Their credentials as well as a detailed description of the wide range of projects we have delivered over the years are summarized in sections 1.0 and 2.0 of this proposal.
Our experience will translate to value for the City of Downey. Based upon our firm's extensive public works design experience, we believe the key issues for successful completion of on -call design projects center around the key areas summarized on the following pages. ❖ Effective Project Management
There is no doubt that all proposing firms will tout their abilities to effectively "manage" a project.
Unfortunately, many firms believe if they stay somewhat on schedule and submit their invoices on time they have been "effective" managers. We at KCG do not subscribe to this. Our core business philosophy is centered around effective management of all of our projects with the goal of making our clients job easier. The cornerstone goal of this philosophy is to "get out and stay out in front of the issues" on each and every project. We feel very strongly that our clients hire us for an assignment it is our obligation to bring it to a successful completion without having our hands held or being reliant on City staff to do our job for us. We know that cities have this hand -holding experience with consultants too frequently... KCG will not allow this to take place on this or any project. The way we achieve this objective is by providing seasoned engineersthat are also effective managers, not only because they understand the project process but because they understand the technical background of the design itself. We can anticipate issues faster than those managers who are reliant on younger design engineers to keep them informed. This disconnect cannot and will not happen at KCG because our Project Managers have hands on day to day involvement in the project design. Our project manager for the subject project will be Rick Kreuzer. Mr. Kreuzer is the President of KCG and has 40 years of experience managing and designing public works projects. Over the last 15 years, he has personally managed and/or designed over 50 roadway and public works infrastructure improvement projects for Southern California cities. 3 ❖ Proactive Utility Coordination
Utility coordination is an element that, if not properly addressed and managed, can significantly effect a project schedule and budget. This work task is much more than gathering record drawings and plotting then on the plans. The success of this task is proactively managing the relationship with all utility agencies involved. It certainly requires the establishment of the existing location of utilities as a first step but the real key is identifying the impacts to these facilities early on in the design process and coordinating proactively with the affected agency staff/service planners to mitigate those impacts and facilitate needed relocations.
Overlooking or addressing utility impacts late in the design process usually results in schedule overruns and cost increases during construction.
❖ NPDES Expertise
Water quality requirements have become a critical component of projects over the last decade. Successful delivery of a project requires a firm that understands this reality and can deliver the permits required.
KCG's stormwater specialist, Chris Becker, has a thorough understanding of the City's plans for long-term pavement maintenance and rehabilitation, while maintaining strict compliance with today's stringent water quality regulatory environment. He is a seasoned stormwater compliance expert that specializes in the municipal sector. He is a California Certified/Qualified SWPPP Practitioner (QSP) and Qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD). KCG can turn -key all storm water compliance needs from site assessment, to report preparation, to site inspections and monitoring. We have a working knowledge of the complex California General Stormwater Permit for New Construction and are currently performing work for many cities, Caltrans and several developers and general contractors. ❖ Grant Funding Knowledge
We are very familiar with the various local grant programs administered by LAMTA and Caltrans, having completed multiple projects with funding allocations from these agencies. ❖ Focus and Experience
KCG's primary core business is civil design. Our staff has delivered successful street widening and rehabilitation and utility projects all around Southern California for the last two decades. We understand the design subtleties associated with public works design projects in urban settings. Moreover, we provide in house experience in the complementary functions, namely water quality and community outreach, that have become so integral to the successful delivery of projects in today's world. This experience and focus will translate to value, via cost effective design, to the City of Downey. ❖ On -Cali Experience
The nature of on -call contracts requires a firm to be nimble and responsive. We are a small firm that prides ourselves on providing these qualities to our clients. This is evidenced by the number of active on -call contracts we maintain with other public agencies.
❖ Project Quality and Delivery
Simply put, the ultimate success of a project is determined by the delivery of a quality design delivered on schedule. The following pages describe the tools and approaches KCG implements to insure that these objectives are achieved on all of our projects.
4 Once a project is identified, the KCG Project Manager will meet with the City Project Manager or designated staff member responsible for the project to discuss the proposed scope of work, projected schedule, and estimated costs required to complete the detailed work. The KCG Team will not begin work on a project until a work order has been approved. Upon concurrence of all work order details, the City will issue the work order, and the KCG Team will begin the designated tasks.
The KCG Team, together with its supporting subconsultants, will provide the City with the resources necessary to successfully deliver the projects at hand. The following are the project controls we employ to deliver each project assignment.
❖ Schedule Control: KCG has extensive experience in managing projects through such automated scheduling tools such as Microsoft Project and Primavera. The KCG Project Manager will coordinate with the City Project Manager to determine the most appropriate scheduling software for this project.
A monthly status of each project schedule will be provided and impacts to other project tasks will be noted if there are delays. Any delays or schedule modifications will be discussed with the City Project Manager and recommendations will be given for maintaining the overall schedule. ❖ Cost Control: KCG is committed to controlling costs through regular and timely discussions of work efforts and project accomplishments. KCG will utilize automated project accounting tools to ensure project completion within budget. Before the start of the project, a detailed scope of work will be established where tasks and subtasks are identified and a "per -task" budget will be estimated. Project team members will develop a scope of work that minimizes project cost, while ensuring a high -quality product. The KCG Team Project Manager will discuss with the City Project Manager key elements of the project budget and work scope before the project begins. In this way, unforeseen costs and potential delays will be minimized.
Time spent on projects is recorded electronically on an integrated time sheet application for each work day and integrated into an automated tracking system. From the computerized system, the Project Manager can, at any time, obtain a detailed Project Progress Report that shows the amount of time spent per person, as well as the budget -per -task, year-to-date, and project -to -date. Expense sheets for professional services and expenses (from direct costs such as equipment, materials, and subcontractor services) are prepared weekly. These tools allow KCG to proactively manage the project delivery process and identify potential schedule and budget issues before they become a problem. We can also provide the City with a Work Breakdown Schedule (WBS) for both manhours and costs which assists us with managing the flow of work and provides the City of Downey with anticipated monthly project cash flows for the entire project duration.
At KCG, we believe our "uniqueness" comes from our belief that quality control is rooted in the philosophy by which you conduct your business. It is true that quality can be monitored and controlled to some degree via checklists and independent reviews, but a true "quality" product comes from a firm's commitment to excel for their clients. Do they care about their product? KCG does. Do they have experienced staff overseeing or doing the work every step of the way? KCG will. Do they want the next job? KCG does. Are they staying out in front of the issues and "leading" the project? KCG will. Qualty is a culture within a company ... you either have it or you don't.
This philosophy manifests itself in how we systematically approach QA/QC. This is a cornerstone element of KCG's overall approach to the management and control of our work. The graphic below depicts KCG's approach to QA/QC on all of our projects.

At KCG, we pride ourselves on the quality of our work product. We encourage the City of Downey to contact our past and current clients regarding this claim.
Our team organization is depicted on Exhibit A below. KCG's president, Rick Kreuzer, PE, will be the Project Manager as well as the Principal in Charge. He will be the single point of contact with the City of Arcadia, and will have the authority to act on behalf of the firm regarding all contractual, project performance and quality matters.
Mr. Kreuzer is a registered civil engineer in the State of California with 40 years of professional experience.
The unique aspect of Mr. Kreuzer's experience is that he has spent his entire professional career as an owner of (or working for) small firms which means he has been, and continues to be, a very involved and hands-on Project Manager. He is not a delegator or glorified principal but is "on the boards" and intimately involved with the day to day design aspects of his projects. We believe this attribute is a real value to our clients and is the cornerstone operating philosophy of our company.
Assisting Mr. Kreuzer with the day to day design of the project will be Mr. David Jarvi. Mr. Jarvi has been Mr. Kreuzer's right hand man for the last decade including many assignments within the City of Downey.
He is a registered Civil Engineer with 24 years of experience. He is proficient with the use of AutoCAD software and has a thorough understanding of City standards, design criteria and plan formatting requirements. He is also well versed with Civil 3D design software.
Eric Metz, LS will be responsible for all surveying mapping and right of way acquisition documentation. He has 23 years of professional surveying experience and is an expert Civil 3D software user.
Chris Becker, QSP is KCG's Storm Water Quality expert. Mr. Becker has 29 years of professional experience in the public works industry. He is a Qualified SWPP Developer and Practitioner (QSD/QSP), Certified FA
Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control and Certified Sediment and Storm Water Quality Management Plans (WQMP), Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) and Caltrans Storm Water Data Reports (SDR).

The new 22,560 -square -foot AWPF is being constructed on a 5.7-acre site within the confines of the Monterey Regional Treatment Plant (RTP) and adjacent to the operating Monterey Regional Waste Management District (MRWMD). Both facilities must be kept in full operation during construction. Access and security of vehicular traffic, construction work, and staff must be coordinated with the existing plant operations team.
In addition to access and security issues, ongoing coordination with plant operations personnel prevents potential impact to the ongoing operation of the existing wastewater treatment plant. Provided construction management, construction inspection, testing, startup, and commissioning services.
Aerated Sllh,,idge Hold'�ng 'TartA Rep[acement I Carpirtte,,ri�.-',� Sz.,,,nitary District, CA Construction Manager. This $6M project demolished two aging aerated sludge holding tanks and constructed two new concrete digesters that meet current seismic standards, use state-of-the-art aeration equipment and computerized process control systems, enhance treatment of solids, and dramatically improve energy efficiency through the use of ultra -efficient pumps and blowers. The solid foundation comprised of 170 stone columns beneath the new tanks prevent future seismic liquefaction. To avoid major noise impacts associated with pile driving, a unique process involving a vibrating head and hollow shaft extended these densified rock columns 55 feet deep into the ground. This work required a massive 250-ton crane. These substantial structures —each approximately 50 feet by 50 feet and 20 feet deep —were outfitted with piping, equipment, and instrumentation necessary to provide maximum operational flexibility and optimized biological treatment. Additional project elements included the installation of a temporary sludge handling system and new aeration blowers; relocation of existing chemical facilities; and modifications to yard piping, electrical and instrumentation, and other appurtenant work.
