A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA

AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS, OR A DESIGNEE, TO ISSUE A

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) USING THE DESIGN-BUILD ALTERNATIVE

PROJECT DELIVERY METHOD FOR THE FIRE SYSTEMS IMPROVEMENTS AT

VARIOUS CITY FACILITIES PROJECT, AND AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR OF

PUBLIC WORKS TO SOLICIT PROPOSALS
WHEREAS, the Director of Public Works has proposed for the improvement of fire systems at various city facilities ("Project") using Design-Build, an alternate project delivery method authorized under Chapter 4.13 of the Glendale Municipal Code ("GMC"); and
WHEREAS, on May 31, 2024, the Director of Public Works presented a memorandum to the City Manager, as required by GMC Section 14.13.070(A)(1), describing the Project's attributes and stating the reasons and justifications for proposing the Design-Build method of project delivery; and
WHEREAS, the memorandum, which is attached as an exhibit to the April 12, 2022 Report to the City Council, states that:

1. As required by GMC Section 4.13.070, the Project is being proposed for the following reason(s) and justification(s):
a. The Project entails a significant degree of complexity. Installing the new fire alarm panel for the Glendale Police Building, as well as upgrading it, necessitates the expertise of a certified installer, as the new system is custom designed to seamlessly integrate with the existing fire monitoring systems. Moreover, the installation of the pre action system at the General Services Building will require careful planning and design adjustments to accommodate the existing conditions in the building. Lastly, over the past few years, Public Works has made emergency repairs to leaking fire sprinkler pipes at Fire Station 21 's Verdugo Dispatch area. Although these repairs have been successful, the recurring leaks indicate poor-quality pipes. To ensure the protection and reliability of the dispatch operations, it is prudent to replace a significant section of the existing fire sprinkler pipe that runs above the third floor.
b. The Project demands a level of expertise that the city staff currently lacks. Given the technical intricacies of the fire systems involved, a design-build approach is highly appropriate. For this procurement, we will be seeking the assistance of equipment manufacturers who specialize in fire safety systems that are compatible with the existing equipment within the building.
{{section.number}}b 8b1

c. The Project encompasses a scope of work and technical demands that are challenging to precisely delineate. Because our staff lacks expertise in these highly specialized fields, preparing the Technical Specifications is proving to be a formidable task.
d. The Project benefits from early contractor involvement. By having the Contractor involved in the design phase of the project, we can eliminate possible change order costs that are typical of this type of project.
e. The Project necessitates stringent risk management and risk mitigation measures. Ensuring the safety of the Contractor, Staff, and the Facility Structure is of utmost importance, particularly when working on an active fire monitoring system. The Contractor's responsibilities encompass design, procurement, installation, inspection, and certification of all aspects of the project. f. The Project has complex phasing. The site will require the removal and repairs to be sequences as to maintain accessibility of the facility.

2. Justification for the Alternative Project Delivery Method [GMC Section

4.13.060(6)]:

Design-Build achieves or improves:
a. The Project's schedule by:
i. Minimizing the project delivery time.

The Design-Build delivery method is typical for Fire Systems Improvements due to the coordination of design, procurement, installation, and inspections it is expected that the overall project schedule will be accelerated to the maximum extent possible.
b. The Project's cost by:
i. Minimizing its cost;
ii. Maximizing its budget; and,
iii. Completing it within budget.

Using the Design-Build method on this Project will enable constant communication and coordination between the
Project designer and the builder (the designer and builder will likely be the same company), thereby reducing design errors and constructions mistakes, which in turn, ultimately shortens the construction period, reduces change orders, and lowers the Project's costs. This Project will benefit from additional cost savings, realized through Design-Build, because of early 2 {{section.number}}b
coordination of the construction means, methods, and
materials.
c. The Project's quality by:
i. Providing a high-quality design and construction that best;
ii. Addresses the complexity of the project;
iii. Providing a design and construction that minimizes or eliminates project risk borne by City;
iv. Providing the most highly qualified organization to perform the work; and,
v. The Design-Build method will ensure that the
Contractor complete the Project in a manner that is
designed and approved by Building and Safety
• Department prior to construction.

WHEREAS, the City Manager, as required by GMC Section 4.13.070(A)(2), reviewed the Project and, on Ma7 31, 2024, approved the use of Design-Build; and WHEREAS, having received the City Manager's approval and having satisfied one or more reasons under GMC Section 4.13.060(A), and one or more justifications under GMC Section 4.13.060(8), the Project meets the procedural and substantive requirements for using an alternative project delivery method.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE:

Section 1. The foregoing facts are deemed to be true and correct, and are a basis for authorizing the use of the Design-Build delivery method on this Project Section 2. The Request for Proposals (RFP) Proposals for the Design and Build of the Fire Systems Improvements at Various City Facilities Project is hereby approved and adopted and will be known as RFP No. 3961.

Section 3. The Director of Public Works is hereby directed to advertise for proposals for the project's design, work, equipment, and materials.

Section 4. The Director of Public Works is directed to return to the Council for the Council's award of a contract.

WHEREAS, the expansion of the NeoGov system will feature a module called Attract, which has many new features the City will benefit from, one of which is the ability to conduct outreach campaigns for job openings, which data will be analyzed to identify trends related to emails candidates are opening, links they are selecting, and the jobs they are applying for, allowing the City to continuously improve recruitment efforts based on the collected data;
WHEREAS, with the new Onboard module, new employees will be able to electronically fill out hiring documentation, learn about the City's benefit offerings, and better understand the expectations of the positions they are starting, all before beginning their first day on the job, allowing the City to go completely paperless for the hiring process and leverage the data from the completed job application to build out the employee's file, eliminating dual entry;
WHEREAS, City departments are currently utilizing different forms of training, with some managing the effort manually with hardcopy documents, while others are utilizing various software applications;
WHEREAS, with the Learn upgrade, the City will centrally manage all training via a single system standardizing the processes from new hire mandatory training, to recurring compliance training through auto-enrollment, to elective City sponsored training opportunities;
8d1

WHEREAS, the Perform upgrade will introduce a new way of doing evaluations by:
• Allowing supervisors to access the system to add notes on an employee's performance throughout their evaluation period
• Providing automatic scheduling and reminders of when evaluations are due • Increasing collaboration between employee and supervisor in writing the evaluation, making the process more engaging
• Providing access to appropriate reports and dashboards for supervisors as well as, the Civil Service Commission for better transparency and management WHEREAS, expanding the City's use of Neogov will enable the City to have a two way integration with its Tyler Munis Financial System, allowing new hire data to be uploaded into the Munis Payroll module;
WHEREAS, as employee and position information changes, data from Munis will in-turn be fed back into the NeoGov system and exchanging data across two enterprise systems, will eliminate the extensive manual dual entry that Human Resources staff are doing to synchronize these systems;
WHEREAS, having data covering an employee's entire tenure at the City centralized in one system will minimize redundancies, silos and manual work and the sharing of this data with the City's payroll system adds process efficiencies and shortens the time it takes to onboard new hires;
WHEREAS, with this upgrade and expansion, the City has the ability to automate and leverage technology in attracting candidates, recruiting, onboarding, training and development, and facilitating performance evaluations;
WHEREAS, Article VI, Section 9 of the City of Glendale Charter provides an exemption to competitive bidding where the City Council determines it is in the best interests of the City to dispense with competitive bidding; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that it is in the best interests of the City of Glendale to dispense with competitive bidding and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to procure the Attract, Onboarding, Learning and Perform modules with NeoGov for the purchase, implementation, software licensing and maintenance of the expansion of the current NeoGov system.
