Project Checklist: This is initiated at the beginning of each project and services as a guide of all elements of the project to be completed, and as a central index for all project related material. It is continually updated and reviewed during regular project audits.

Product File and Technical Project Checklist: Initiated at the commencement of design, this checklist serves to record all considerations and decisions regarding building materials and methods to be used in construction. It also becomes a comprehensive guide for preparation of the Construction Documents.

3. CONSULTANT COORDINATION
Our engineering sub-consultants play a very critical and active role in all phases of the work. The Project Manager leads in coordinating the efforts of consultants with the help of:
• Frequent coordination meetings.
• Consultant orientation packets which are distributed at project commencement and periodically through the project.
• Clearly defined scopes of work which define separation of responsibilities and eliminate grey areas.
• Milestone Outline, prepared specifically for each project which clearly defines consultant performance expectations for each phase.
• Project Sched ule coordinated with a milestone outline, reviewed and signed off by all consultants.
• Drawing Status Log which is updated every two weeks which track’s consultant’s performance.
• CADD (AutoCAD 2024 or Revit 3D 2024 (BIM) procedures involving background and overlay methodologies that insure up-to-date and coordinated design effort.

4. CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
BOA understands the importance of efficient construction administration. To ensure that the design and technical intent are conveyed to the contractor and that the project knowledge is available throughout this phase, the construction administration is led by the project manager. The Project Manager, Edward Lok Ng will personally review shop drawings as well as attend all job site meetings to resolve design and construction detailing and constructability issues. A Senior Project Manager from each of our engineering consultants will be assigned to assist the Project Manager and ensure that the highest standard, procedures and methods of construction are employed. BOA has a Construction Administration Manual to assist the Project Manager with an established system to track shop drawings, RFI, change orders, and documentation of construction site meetings, so that keys decisions are tracked and managed for the benefit of the Client.

18.C.

If there will be on-going operations and services, BOA will assist in the development of a Construction Phasing Plan to ensure that on-going operations and services will have minimum disruptions. BOA is well aware of the need for Public Agency services to remain operational during construction. We have had good results recently assisting the Cities of Long Beach, Torrance, Los Angeles County, and San Bernardino County on renovation and addition projects that require facilities to remain open during construction.

5. Quality Control (see section e. quality assurance)

6. WORK PLAN
An integral part of our management approach is to develop a written Work Plan during the project’s Pre-Design phase, so that the Design Team and Client have clear written directions and instructions for each phase of the project. We will create a written Work Plan for each design phase of your On-Call Projects assigned to BOA, as well as a project Design Schedule, upon initiation of the project. Because of page limitation, our sample Work Plan was not included. However, it is available upon request.

D. RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE
BOA Architecture’s extensive experience in Public Works design has allowed us to acquire and develop attributes that allows us to out-perform our competitors. From assessing your facilities needs in pre-design and design development all the way through construction administration, BOA has worked on a vast array of municipal/ county/State owned facilities.

The following are current and completed architectural Public Works renovation projects that BOA Architecture has completed or currently in design process within the last five (5) years:

PROJECT EXPERIENCE
HERITAGE PARK, City of Diamond Bar (currently in Construction Document phase of Design) Heritage Park, spanning 3 acres in the City of Diamond Bar, is undergoing a comprehensive modernization. BOA Architecture partnered with David Volz Design (DVD) to spearhead the renovation of the park grounds, and completely renovating the existing community building & add 2000sf. This collaborative effort will create an inclusive recreational space that caters to the diverse interests of the community. The revitalization plan with DVD & BOA's innovative touches, encompasses a themed play design inspired by the historic Diamond Bar ranch style that reflects the ranch style of the new shade structure. Within the park, two distinct play areas will be created, accompanied by a new basketball court, and shaded amenities. A picturesque walking path will encircle the park's perimeter, providing a scenic route for visitors. The project also includes a diverse selection of trees and an upgraded irrigation system featuring bioswales, water quality enhancements, and basins. The existing 5000sf Community Center Building (large community rm, daycare rm., admin offices) will be completely remodeled with new lighting, HVAC, flooring, ceiling-wall acoustics, warming kitchen, A 2000sf building addition will further enhance the community building with new storage, expanded kitchen, more offices, and new restrooms. New shade structures with an iconic entry tower will recall the City’s historic windmill structure. Other shade structures off the large community room and daycare room, will further enhance indoor-outdoor programing.

BOA ARCHITECTURE

IRVINE CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS REMODEL, AUDIO-VISUAL

TECHNOLOGY UPGRADE & ADA COMPLIANCE
BEFORE AFTER: COMPLETED DEC. 2018
Client: City of Irvine, Dept. of Public Works, Contact: Alex Salazar, Public Works, Project Manager 949-724-7408 Construction Completed: Dec. 2018; Construction Cost: $2,600,000 Design Fee: $250,000 Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, Leonardo Arteaga, Miguel Andrade, Kyle Ng Project Description: BOA Architecture provided architectural design to entirely modernize the City Council Chambers for workplace safety, ADA Compliance and a new Audio-Visual system with latest state-of-the-art technology. The architectural renovation included the replacement of the City Council Dais, City Clerk’s desk, Director’s desk, presenter’s desk and both public address podiums. The Dais was re-organized in an oval shape to allow Council to speak directly with the Directors and public presenters directly. The existing awkwardly placed access ramp was moved to behind a wall to give the Chambers symmetry while maintaining ADA access for the disabled up to the Dais. Every Dais desk station is ADA Compliant & has internet/intranet access, individual computer screens for voting and to view PowerPoint presentation and access staff reports. Other areas of renovation include new carpeting, new acoustic ceiling with new LED lighting, special broadcast lighting, and sound system. New acoustical wall diffusers help to mitigate echoing and reverberation. This project incorporated many security components and workplace safety features such as, bullet-resistant panels (under the desk counter) for Council members and staff, and 2 desk stations for public safety officers. The added protection will allow staff to “duck and cover” in case of danger. BOA worked intimately with our AV Technology and Information Technology consultant (Triton Technology) to create ADA compliant AV systems with a hardware and software plan to provide utilities, locate new computer equipment, ambient and broadcast lighting, dedicated computer servers, state-of-theart new “cube screens” video LED wall, and customized workstations for the City’s broadcast staff. The same level of attention to the details was given to the retrofit of the locating of fire sprinkler heads and alarm devices. The greatest challenge for this project was the extremely compact schedule of 10.5 months for design, public bidding, and construction. BOA coordinated closely with the City for the Building-Safety Dept. plan reviewer to perform plancheck in the preliminary design phases to
resolve accessibility and outstanding issues
before starting construction documents, making
the formal plancheck and building permit approval
easy and seamless. BOA and its Design Team
worked weekends and overtime to meet every
critical path deadline. During the bidding process
and construction phase, BOA gave this project the
highest priority by answering and resolving RFI’s
within 1-2 days, and being on-call to meet with the
construction team to expedite the construction
process. The construction completed “on-time” to
accommodate a very important citywide City
Council Meeting. Irvine can now showcase its
newly remodeled City Council Chambers with
State-of-the-Art architecture and AV Systems.

Client: City of Irvine, Public Works Dept., contact: Alex Salazar 949-724-7408 Construction Cost: to date $5 million Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, Leo Arteaga, Kyle Ng
Project Description: In 2015, BOA was granted an On–Call Contract for Architecture Services for the City of Irvine, Public Works Dept. Since then, BOA designed 13 projects ranging in construction cost from $40,000 to $1,500,000 in construction cost. One project was a new roof structure with operable roof hatch, to change large filters, over existing water pump equipment for weather protection, Construction Cost: $300,000. Another unique project was to provide workplace safety elements (fencing, new lighting, bullet-resistant fabric panels and glazing) at multiple locations at Irvine City Hall and at Operation Support Facility, Construction Cost: $500,000. A project just completed was the ADA Compliance improvements and interior renovations for modernization and accessibility to 4 community centers at; Fine Arts Center, Heritage Park Community Center, Harvard Park Community Center, and Deerfield Park Community Center. Every effort was made to isolate construction areas and to minimize construction cost, and to be architecturally compatible with the existing architecture at each separate community center. The project Scope of Work at these 4 community centers included renovation work to create accessible restrooms, new indoor ramps and stair handrails, access lift, signage, new doors and door hardware drinking fountains. Site elements included concrete accessible ramps, stair handrails drinking fountains. Construction Cost: $400,000. Another unique project (completed 2023) was to decrease the size of the City Hall computer room and convert the leftover space into 5 office workstations. This computer room holds all the computer servers for the City Hall including the Police Dept, and emergency operations. The old-obsolete halon fire suppression system was eliminated to make way for a new “clean agent” system that will protect the computer servers and occupants in a way that will not damage the equipment and will be environmentally safe. The Computer Room was retrofitted with a pre-action fire sprinkler system to allow the “clean agent” to activate before the sprinklers kick-on, in case of a fire. Thus, further protecting the valuable servers. The Fire Alarm panel was also retrofitted to accommodate the new room configuration and new fire suppression system.

BOA Architecture
Bellflower Indoor Pool & Locker Room Renovation
Indoor Pool Before Renovation Rotted Wood Roof Framing Locker Rm Before Renovation Project: Bellflower Aquatic Center, Indoor Pool Locker Room Renovation Construction Cost: $1,500,000 Location: Thompson Park, Bellflower, CA Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, Leo Arteaga Client: City of Bellflower Dept. of Public Works, contact: Bernie Iniquez (562) 760-3250 Year Built: 2020 Project Description: BOA Architecture was commissioned to repair and improve an old 1960’s indoor pool building and its locker rooms. Our challenges were to replace all the rotted wood framing in the locker rooms. The wood studs had rotted from decades of water seepage from showers, and from the maintenance staff “hose down” the floor twice per day and pool operations (patrons are typically dripping wet when using the locker rooms). BOA’s solution was to carefully sawcut the entire locker room concrete floor, and install new concrete floors sloping and install numerous new drains, to expel water quickly. We designed new concrete curbs to protect new and existing wood stud walls from moisture, rot, and corrosion damage. All rooms were designed have at least 2 floor drains to push water out of each room quickly. New fiberglass doors and door frames provided corrosion protection and allow “hosing-down” of concrete floors in every room. The swimming pool locker rooms can accommodate over 100 swimmers with newly renovated facility included; men & women locker room/showers/restroom, private dressing stalls. Plumbing fixtures and toilet room accessories were chosen for their reliability, low-maintenance and durability in a wet environment. We also remodel the entry lobby, staff offices, and swimmer check-in counter. Also, due to poor ventilation in the concealed ceiling of the indoor pool building, much of the wood framing plywood and roof rafters had rotted. BOA removed and designed a new exposed structural roof deck with exposed rafters and plywood. New rigid insulation and new PVC single-ply “cool roof” helped to moderate interior temperature. Multiple new, large capacity, heavy duty exhaust fans located at the roof ridge helped to promoted ventilation with slow air movement (for patron comfort) while moving large volumes of air. We design large new fabric air conditioning ducts that will not corrode for the existing air conditioning system. These enhancements to the existing mechanical system also expelled pool chemical odor and moisture before its corrosive effects can harm the steel structure. New high-efficiency, up and down, LED lighting replaced old and obsolete fluorescent fixtures, lit pool decks and featured the new exposed ceiling. The large existing structural steel beam were painted with marine grade epoxy painted to minimize further rust and corrosion.

E. QUALITY ASSURANCE

QUALITY ASSUSRANCE
BOA’s Quality Assurance Program begins with the commitment, experience and abilities of the team members. All of the firm’s personnel contain many design specialists versed in the complexities of the individual phases of the design process. The quality assurance program for the project will draw on these skills to assist the team in obtaining its goals for a design of vision that delivers the maximum functional and modernization/repair solution to the user that addresses the needs of the client and does so with the most efficient construction process. BOA has an established Quality Control program that is based on three mechanisms:

The Quality Control Manual: The Quality Control Manual documents, activities, tasks, and deliverables are to be achieved in each phase of work. Checklists are included and, at the completion of each phase, are signed off by the Project Manager. The manual also includes exemplary forecasts for meetings, programs, schedules and Agendas. We have a quality control checklist that is customized especially for Public Works facilities projects. Checklist items range from plumbing fixture standards, to City department clearances, to record drawing procedures, to amount to copies needed for review submittals, and much more.

Quality Control Review: Quality Control Reviews occur prior to Submittals and at key points in the project schedule. During these reviews, the entire sets of documents are checked by an experienced, a professional who has had major experience in the design of similar projects to ensure a “questioning character” in this process. Major emphasis is placed on Constructability and on satisfying the operational requirements of the user and thoroughness of documentation.

As a part of this project, BOA will commit Mr. Leo Arteaga, Architect/Quality Review Officer. Mr.

Ng will be ideal for this role because of his extensive County and Public Works renovation/repair experience and familiarity with processes and procedures for these types of projects. Mr. Ng will review all deliverables at, 75%, and 95% completion. This involvement is formalized and part of the quality control manual procedures. We are committed to providing quality design services and trust that our past work with LA County and other local cities is indicative of that commitment.

Project Standards: From our experience of over 2000 Public Works projects, BOA has developed its own Project Standard that can be customized to the Client that enhances quality control of bid documents and the construction process. Project Standards include:

1. Construction document detail drawings: With the input of past governmental clients, BOA has developed, refined, and field tested over 300 Standard construction details that are geared for public works renovation/repair projects. We have Standard, field tested, construction document details for just about every field condition possible; accessible lavatory counters, transitions of existing to new flooring, restrooms upgrade, signage, railings, entry doors, stairs, ramps, site work, parking lot, window/door replacement, roof repair, building expansion joints, rooftop equipment platform retrofit, HVAC replacement etc.

2. BOA has developed a standard facilities modernization equipment list e.g., types of new handrails, access lifts, lighting fixtures, plumbing fixtures, drinking fountains, furniture, restroom accessories, audio-visual equipment, etc., complete with manufacturer Model # and their acceptable approved equal. The Standard equipment list has been field tested and proven to be of high quality, durability, parts availability, and acceptable to the many past county municipal clients.

3. BOA has developed a standard keynoting system with over 150 items that addresses virtually every facility field condition and many retrofit/repair conditions. These standard keynotes have been field tested and refined, and have proven to be clear and concise to construction contractors.

City of Hemet
Attn: Candace Sunds
445 East Florida Avenue
Hemet, CA 92543
Dear Ms. Sunds,
On behalf of Development One Architects, I am pleased to submit our Statement of Qualifications in response to the City of Hemet’s Request for On-Call Architectural/Engineering Services. With over 35 years of service to public agencies across California and the western United States, our firm is purpose-built for the responsive, high-quality delivery that on-call contracts demand. In fact, the majority of our work has been performed under on-call contracts, for clients such as the City of Fullerton, John Wayne Airport, The U.S. General Services Administration, NASA, The U.S. Air Force, and others.

Our municipal portfolio includes work with the City of Fullerton, where we designed the Fullerton Airport Terminal addition and the Fullerton Flight Center, dual-purpose facilities that function both as community hubs and administrative facilities housing airport and City staff. These projects reflect our ability to create civic buildings that foster public engagement, operational efficiency, and enduring design value; qualities central to Hemet’s Strategic Plan and priorities.

Our public sector experience also extends deeply into the state and federal sectors. We’ve led major projects for the Judicial Council of California, and for federal clients including the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), NASA, the Armed Forces, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and U.S. Marshals Service. These projects have encompassed public safety and security-related facilities, often requiring specialized planning for secure areas, complex systems, and interagency coordination - directly aligning with Hemet’s envisioned upgrades to fire training centers, community facilities, and public safety buildings.

Our portfolio includes significant fire station work for the U.S. military, from multiple fire station renovations for the U.S. Marine Corps and Air Force, to the design of a new fire station for the U.S. Navy at Camp Smith in Hawaii. In addition, we’ve delivered park related facilities such as the Travis Air Force Base Family Camp Visitor Center, further connecting our experience to Hemet’s interest in enhancing park and recreation infrastructure.

Recognizing Hemet’s location in western Riverside County, we also offer a unique logistical advantage: we operate a private aircraft piloted by our principal architect, J. Bruce Camino, allowing us to reach Hemet in under 30 minutes. This capability ensures rapid response with no budget impact, enabling in-person site visits, inspections, or coordination meetings with maximum flexibility and minimal delay.

We are a nimble, collaborative team with strong QA/QC processes, and have successfully executed numerous feasibility studies, new buildings, additions, and renovations, mirroring the full range of services outlined in the RFQ. We understand the demands of on-call work and bring a seasoned team ready to deliver exceptional results under evolving municipal needs.

Thank you for your consideration. We welcome the opportunity to support the City of Hemet in delivering impactful capital improvements that serve your residents, agencies, and long-term strategic goals.

Sincerely,

Because our leadership remains hands-on and accessible throughout all phases of work, we can rapidly respond to client priorities, adjust staffing in real time, and maintain consistent communication across disciplines. This approach has allowed us to serve our on-call clients with uninterrupted performance across overlapping timelines and a variety of project types.

Our firm has a unique advantage when it comes to travel - a private aircraft (piloted by firm principal J. Bruce Camino) is used to provide services at remote sites. Should a City project require immediate attention for any reason, our Principal Architect is able to arrive on-site in a fraction of the time it would take traveling by car (for example, less than 30 minutes to Hemet-Ryan Airport), with no cost impact to the project. J. Bruce has piloted his plane to project sites throughout the South West over the last 25 years.

Core Values
Development One’s operational philosophy is based on a set of core values that guide all of the firm’s efforts:
• Quality Accountability
• Mission Driven
• Integrity
• Service Excellence
• Visionary
• Purpose Driven
Quality Control
Quality Accountability sits at the top of our Core Values, and change order prevention is at the root of our quality control philosophy. At Development One, we’ve created our own Change Order Prevention System (COPS), which is a tool to forecast, recognize, and prevent contractor-driven change orders. All of our team members and consultants receive COPS training.

APPROACH AND UNDERSTANDING
The following is a general outline of the approach that we have taken on most of our past on-call projects and would expect use for most of the City’s projects. Some projects types, such as feasibility studies, building evaluation studies and conceptual designs/bridging documents would follow a modified approach.

PHASE 1 - PROJECT INITIATION AND CONCEPT DESIGN
Kick-off Meeting - Upon the City’s notice to proceed, our team will conduct a Kick-Off Meeting with the City and other stakeholders to:
• Introduce team members, define roles/responsibilities, and establish lines of communication and protocol • Convey our project strategy and review our understanding of the scope of work • Establish overall project schedule and work plan
• Review available documentation; identify City’s project goals; finalize list of design meetings to be held with building users and stakeholders, and set tentative dates to facilitate efficient design meetings.

The outcome will be a clear understanding by all team members of the anticipated scope of work as well as the City’s goals and expectations for the project.

PHASE 2 - SCHEMATIC DESIGN
Our team will begin developing the City’s approved design concept into schematic design drawings. We will begin designing optimal solutions for the project. Tasks and deliverables for this phase include:
• 30% Drawings
• Engineering disciplines will be addressed.
• A detailed schedule will be updated for review
• Outline specifications
• Basis of Design reports
• Preliminary designer’s construction cost
Review Meetings - Development One will hold a review meeting with the City to discuss project progress during the schematic design phase, as well as in subsequent phases. In the course of these meetings, we will discuss the project’s progress, and address any City questions. We will send detailed meeting minutes afterward.

PHASE 3 - DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
During the design development phase, Development One will generate more detailed site information, and identify and describe the size and character of the project elements, while analyzing constructability and technical issues. In this phase, we will continue development and expansion of architectural schematic design documents to include all disciplines. Tasks completed in this phase include, but are not limited to:
• 60% Drawings
• 60% Technical Specifications
• 60% Cost Estimate and Schedule
• Updated Basis of Design
PHASE 4 - CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
During the construction documents phase, Development One will finalize all drawings created during the design development phase to establish the final scope of the project. Development One will coordinate the design of all major elements among disciplines. Tasks completed in this phase include, but are not limited to:
• Construction drawings to include all disciplines
• Specifications
• Updated Basis of Design
• Cost estimate and updated schedule
Development One will assist the City in review and analysis of submitted bids and respond to technical questions that arise during the bidding process, incorporate stakeholder comments, and submit the 100% final submittal.

PHASE 5 - CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES
After the award of the construction contract, Development One will provide support to the City during the construction phase. Our team will attend the pre-construction conference, conduct construction meetings as necessary, participate in pre-final inspection and create a punch list. Development One will review contractor submittals at the direction of the City, including, but not limited to:
• Shop drawings
• Materials and equipment submittals
• Substitution requests
• Schedules
Requests for Information - During the construction phase, Development One will respond to RFIs promptly.

Closeout/As Built Drawings - At the direction of the City, Development One will prepare the record drawings from the “as built” drawings that were maintained by the contractor and approved by the City.

• Renovation or expansion of existing public facilities Development One provided space planning and design services for this Department of Labor (DOL) project to consolidate five divisions into the U.S. Courthouse building at 312 Spring Street. The new suites will occupy the majority of the seventh floor in the building.

This 14,381 SF project included:
• Demolition of existing spaces.
• Designs for the new offices of each of the five DOL divisions • Several shared conference and meeting rooms, a break room, and other shared support spaces.
• Upgrades to Mechanical and Plumbing systems, Electrical and Lighting systems, and Fire Protection systems were also included.

Because the building is on the National Register of Historic Places, there were many features within the seventh floor which needed to be taken into consideration for preservation. Since the existing restrooms are considered historic, but are not ABAAS accessible, two new single occupant, accessible restrooms were designed near the core of the building.

Essential services are the backbone of every area, and with how sparse Imperial County is, the county realized that their current locations weren’t cutting it when it came to response time. This spawned the need for Niland Public Safety Building. To facilitate the construction and design of the building the county brought in Design West Engineering. This project consisted of a 7,582 SF Building which included an apparatus bay for three vehicles with the necessary ventilation, 4 bedrooms as well as a captain’s bedroom, a living area for the fire department, offices, restrooms and a community area for the public. Also included in the scope was HVAC units done via rooftop packaging, and a 250kw diesel stand-by generator with 24-hour belly tank.

QUALITY ASSURANCE
Development One has an aggressive quality assurance/quality control program, with a focus on change order prevention. The project is always evaluated with an eye toward defending our clients against the possibility of unwanted change orders. Another key element to the implementation of our Quality Control Program is the Design Quality Control Manager. The Design Quality Control Manager will verify each review has taken place, and that the comments and corrections have been incorporated in the final submittal. A brief outline of our QC process is as follows:
• Review the SOW - Our QC process begins with a revisit of the statement of work to make sure all requirements are being met. At this time, preparations begin for all deliverables due for the current milestone submittal. • Change Order Prevention Review – At the beginning of the design process, the project team and consultants shall have a meeting or conference call to discuss the project and identify ‘red flags’ that might lead to contractor-driven change orders. The ‘red flags’ shall be recorded on the QC checklist, and reviewed at each design submittal. Participants in the meeting will be encouraged to be creative in imagining ways that contractors might try to introduce change orders during construction. This meeting shall be repeated at mid-design and prior to the final submittal.
• Review of Responses to Comments – Any comments from a previous submittal must be reviewed to make sure that they have been addressed. A checklist is used to keep track of which comments have been adequately addressed, and which comments are still unresolved. Comment responses must indicate exactly where/how each comment is addressed.
• Review of Agency Requirements – Most agencies have their own set of particular rules to follow for project quality and delivery. The project team reviews the agency requirements to make sure they are all met at the time of submittal.
• Cost Estimate Review – Cost estimating is a very similar review to the way a contractor will evaluate a project.

The cost estimate will tell the project manager what is and isn’t being communicated clearly by the drawings. • Adherence to Development One Drawing Standards – In order to maintain project quality and consistency, Development One has established rigorous drawing standards. A reviewer from outside the project team reviews the project for conformance with the drawing standards, using a drawing standards checklist. • Cross Reference Review – Review of cross references is an important part of Development One’s drawing standards. This step of the review phase is executed by a staff member who is not working on the project.

Checks are made of all detail cross references, references from keynotes, door and window tags, etc. • Interdisciplinary Coordination – For interdisciplinary coordination, Development One uses the RediCheck system. The project manager reviews the consultant drawings with the RediCheck Checklist, to confirm the design is coordinated and all required elements are present. • BIM Coordination – At each phase the project team shall review the BIM from each consultant for coordination and perform clash detection using Navisworks or other software as appropriate. • Code Compliance and ADA Review – It is important to review the project at the QC phase for conformance with code. In particular, the project is reviewed for compliance with IBC Chapter 5 - General Building Heights and Areas, Chapter 10 – Means of Egress, and Chapter 11 – Accessibility. • Specification Review – At the design development and interim submittal phases (30%, 60%), the QC Lead reviews the specifications outline or table of contents and confirms that all the required sections are listed. At pre-final or final submittal milestones, the QC reviewer again confirms that the required sections are included.

At this time, the QC reviewer also reviews the submittal register to confirm that the requested submittals are appropriate to the project scope.
• Basis of Design Review – The project team confirms the basis of design document meets all agency requirements. During the QC phase of each milestone submittal, the QC Lead reviews the basis of design to confirm that it can be read and understood by a layman reviewer, and it is free of typos and errors. • Consultant Quality Control – At each submittal milestone, the project manager confirms the consultants have performed their own quality control review of the work they are submitting. When the submittal is received, the project manager records who performed the QC review for each consultant. If no QC has been performed, the submittal shall be rejected.
• Quality Control Documentation - At each design submittal, the Project Manager shall update the QMP Checklist, including confirmation that the PM and QCM have performed and verified each review above. The bottom line of the checklist includes the QCM certification that the QMP has been followed and all project requirements are met, as required by the Scope of Work. The Project Managers shall also scan the red-line markups of the QC set of drawings. The checklists and red-line mark-ups shall be kept in the Quality Control folder in each project on the server.

Orange County, Yale Navigation Center, Adaptive Reuse & Conversion Brief Description
The Yale Navigation Center project included completely gutting an aging and abandoned tilt up industrial building and the addition of 20,000 sq. ft. expanding the already 44,000 sq. ft. building. The 64,000 sq foot building will be utilized for the rehabilitation and transitional programs for up to 425 homeless in Orange County with the goal of preparing them to return to a self-sufficient lifestyle. The facility includes a full commercial kitchen, health care training facilities, and over 40 office spaces for the program administration staff. The expansion/ renovation cost was approximately $25 M.

Kitchen capacity allows full meal service for the 425 residents. Indoor and outdoor dining areas double as social gathering areas. As the Navigation Cen- ter is located in a long-establish industrial park due diligence requires that potable water service size and sewer main service size available in the street be checked against demand before the County could fully commit to target resident population.

The challenges of the accelerated schedule and the drive to achieve a good neighbor design that would be acceptable to the community were addressed through continuous interaction between all IDS Group disciplines, the contractor (who was brought in during the design phase) as well as the user group which included the County officials and facility operators. Frequent communication was a must to address all the design challenges as well as several public outreach workshops with the community and full cooperation from the (a) funding sources (b) facility future operator (c) contractor, and (d) jurisdictions including the County building officials, and City of Santa Ana.

These meetings in conjunction with the implementation of the lessons learned from the operation of other shelters in Southern California were very effective resulting with positive acclamations and feedback from the user groups and the community at large.

City of Maywood, Maywood Teen Center
Brief Description
The City of Maywood secured funding for revitalizing underused spaces into much-needed community accessible resources. IDS is renovating a former commercial building into a multi-purpose center. The completed space will provide the facility with over 8,000 sf to host educational, recreational, health and wellness, and technology-based programs benefiting youth, young adults, and their families in a historically underserved community.

We have transformed a vacant industrial-style paint shop into a vibrant teen center, bringing new life to both the building and the community through thoughtful revitalization. This adaptive reuse not only dedicates the space to the development and education of the younger generation but also allows the building itself to become a tool for learning. Through the simplicity of the design, we let the architecture speak for itself. Efficiency is prioritized in various aspects of the project. A newly added skylight brings daylight and a view of the sky into the heart of the building, enhancing the atmosphere and supporting psychological well-being.

The circulation throughout the space is smooth and intuitive, guiding visitors naturally through the center. Innovation is at the core of this teen center, with flexible multi-use spaces and integrated technology that adapt to the evolving needs and interests of the youth. The facility will include cooking classrooms, a makerspace, a computer lab, and study rooms providing teens with a diverse range of spaces to learn, create, and grow.

Project Information
The El Toro Library underwent renovations through a project by the Orange County Public Libraries. IDS’ architectural and engineering (A/E) team designed the library to transform it into a modern community space located in Lake Forest.

Utilizing a County of Orange facilities condition assessment report, the IDS team identified and prioritized necessary work tasks to the building envelope, HVAC, electrical, communications, safety and security, and civil site improvements. While these upgrades added no square footage, they provided a rapid return on investment, such as energy and equipment efficiency and ADA compliance.

The renovated library offers a variety of modern amenities and collaborative spaces including lounge areas, study areas, furniture with plug-in technology, public-use computers, and a children’s story time room. The renovation included considerations for accessibility features to accommodate all patrons. Mobile furniture was used to allow staff to easily rearrange the space depending on usage. The library features reading zones for children, teens, and adults, plus a multipurpose room. High wood ceilings, blue hues, and a large mountain graphic create an inviting space. A large pillar and sky light in the center of the library act as a focal point in the space.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT & PROJECT CONTROLS
IDS has Project Management practices in place for managing task order projects on an on-call contract. These practices help ensure that the right resources are placed on the right tasks and to help increase efficiency in handling one or multiple projects. The following describe the Project Management process.

IDS’ project manager will implement project controls including timely and regular client communications, established monitoring to control costs and schedule. Activities under the umbrella of project controls include:

Project Planning: IDS’ Project Manager will create project plans, schedules, WBS, and budget to establish a baseline to work with throughout the project. This includes a kick-off meeting to deeply understand all of our client’s needs.

Budgeting: IDS’ team will provide schedule-phased budgets, a transparent model that will be available to serve as a benchmark throughout the project and as an important cash flow tool for accurate invoicing and project accounting.

Risk Management: Our team will preemptively identify risks, monitor risk continuously, and develop a contingency plan to address and mitigate issues to help reduce impacts to budget and schedule.

Forecasting: IDS’ team will perform regular updates to the schedule to ensure faster responses and corrective actions if a project schedule moves off-track.

Project Administration: This process involves established processes and systems that can help team members communicate and collaborate. The goal is to track status, action items, capture meeting minutes and lessons learned, and manage workflows seamlessly so teams can focus on efficient execution of project tasks.

Constructability Reviews
To improve project efficiency and constructability, IDS’ team leverages Bluebeam Revu®, a PDF-based solution designed for the construction industry, for each phase of the preconstruction process. Revu enables IDS to electronically share project feedback by redlining PDFs with industry-standard markups and takeoffs. In addition, IDS utilizes an online session collaboration feature, which allows multiple discipline-lead reviewers to comment on the same PDF together in real-time, or individually. As a result of this concurrent review, where team members can see comments made by other members, a more comprehensive, easy to understand, and quality list of comments are generated resulting in improved deliverables.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

18.C.

20 Statement of Qualifications for
On-Call Architectural Engineering Services CITY OF HEMET Work Schedule Management
The key to successfully implementing a project schedule is to: first, develop a realistic schedule with sufficient detail to define the critical‐path tasks required; second, implement a timely decision‐making process that continually moves the project forward in a proactive manner; and finally, to tenaciously adhere to that schedule with a continual sense of urgency. Equally important is to allow sufficient time for the Client’s involvement and evaluation of all design issues. The team prides itself on both our ability to build realistic, achievable schedules and to guide the design team, including the owner, through the decision‐making process that meets those critical timelines.

Bringing a Project Back on Schedule
We keep projects on track through continuous team communication and anticipating possible schedule delays. Before initiating a major project, the IDS Team will hold a special meeting to discuss work tasking and schedule constraints for each element of the project. Minutes from these meetings are circulated to all Project Team members for their review and concurrence. Schedules are distributed to all parties via email. Most importantly, the schedule is more than simply a reporting tool. It is an “early warning device” for handling delays and proactively manage activities. Our “percent complete” schedule realistically measures work order progress. With such advance notice, each team leader can respond quickly to avoid task slowdowns and maintain the schedule. IDS typically holds Project Team meetings, which are scheduled bi‐monthly or weekly (as deemed necessary) to keep a project on “target” and “on track.” The Project Manager will present persistent problems to senior management at IDS for assistance in problem resolution to assure that contract performance meets all Agency expectations and standards. The table below summarizes potential problem areas and the management methods IDS’ uses to identify and resolve them at the earliest possible time.

Scheduling is a critical component of the design and construction process. A project schedule for each assignment will be developed using the critical‐path‐method in Microsoft Project and / or Excel. The project schedule will be developed at the start of the project and will include all the phases and milestones that are identified by the City and / or mandated by project requirements. The design schedule will include meetings with the City project manager and its consultants at various milestones and provide status / progress reports. We will update the schedule and work plan regularly based on the actual hours worked that are tracked by our internal accounting system. In this way, we can adjust resources to ensure that the project milestones are completed on schedule. We also have an excellent record working on fast‐track projects. In these projects, it is essential for the design team to meet the critical path milestones that precede project completion.

Cost Estimates/ Cost Control
Our standard software, PlanSwift, provides the flexibility to quickly break out the itemized takeoff. This efficiency reduces the number of resources required to complete the takeoff for each project, and the program’s area and zone functions allow the estimator to sort the takeoff into multiple breakouts with minimal effort.

As design progresses, the more detailed documents can be virtually overlaid over previous ones, and changes/additions are immediately visible on screen. This ensures that our estimates at logical milestones during design (SD, DD, CD, etc.), can execute the later levels of design faster and more accurately.

When tasked with value engineering on the same project, our team members will go back and modify the original takeoffs to determine the less expensive methods or materials to construct the project. The benefit with PlanSwift is it allows the estimator to select the existing items and easily assign them to new or other existing conditions with the click of a button.

Value Engineering, Life Cycle Cost Analysis, and Bid Alternate Designation IDS performs in-house cost estimates to identify opportunities for alternate bids that will provide flexibility for our clients as they balance the project scope for construction and the cost of construction.

The first path to value engineering savings is constructability. Our construction cost estimator provides an internal constructability review, which will allow the design team to eliminate scope that will later prove to be impractical to build and therefore costly.

The second path to value engineering is the search for alternates that provide nearly equal performance at less initial cost. When considering these initial cost savings, IDS provides a life cycle cost analysis of the alternatives so that our clients can make informed choices.

Attention: Candace Sunds,
Procurement Administrator
Re: SOQ for On-Call Architectural Engineering Services
Candace,
On behalf of myself and our subconsultant design team I am pleased to present our architectural and engineering qualifications for consideration of the on-call architectural engineering services for the City of Hemet.

OUR PROJECT UNDERSTANDING In order to streamline the process of design and construction for various City projects, the City of Hemet would like to establish a group of consultants that are knowledgeable in a variety of project types, has the ability to develop and process plans quickly, and can administer services through construction.

WHY ARE WE BEST QUALIFIED? As a certified small business (SBE) we may be small, but our ideals are large. Our core concepts are to be selective in the projects that we pursue, dedicate our resources to completing them, and to build strong relationships. Our focus is on quality and not quantity and these principles have resulted in repeat work through our great references and referrals.

As an architect with over thirty years of experience in public sector work providing services for new construction, renovations, assessments, feasibility studies, and expansion projects, I feel our team and our services are well suited to assist the City of Hemet on any project needs no matter how large or small the projects may be. For the past fifteen years and beyond I have worked almost exclusively under the public bid system for cities, municipalities, special districts, fire departments, public works departments, police departments, and parks and recreation departments.

During the past fifteen years we have completed projects representing half a million dollars for small restroom renovations, to large full-service design for a $15 million-dollar public safety center.

We have been involved or are currently involved with multiple on-call contracts and have completed projects for the City of Irvine, the City of Laguna Beach, and the City of Newport Beach which each presented itself with its own unique challenges that our team was able to meet head on.

Candace, I look forward to discussing more with you our qualifications and how we can be the best fit for your needs. If you have any questions regarding the attached, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or at 949 333.6030 at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,

18.C.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
In 2023 the City of Hemet, through City Council, adopted a resolution to commit to improve the City by the betterment of quality of life, providing and seeking economic opportunities, to engage the community to develop trust and transparency, partner with local agencies, and to strengthen overall financial health and wellbeing.

As part of this commitment, the City has issued an RFQ to establish a pool of consultants.

Streamline the Process By establishing a pool a qualified pool of architecture and engineering firms, the City will be able to quickly mobilize on facility upgrades and modifications through letter proposals or direct assignment of work from the pool to be able to select and begin work quicker and with more confidence.

Have a pool of Experienced Consultants who not only understand the public bid system but have the experience, knowledge, and ability to tackle challenging projects whether they be renovations, retrofit, new construction, or studies.

Have a pool of architectural consultants who have a Breadth of Knowledge providing a multitude of services such as feasibility studies, programming studies, seismic retrofits, renovations, additions, new construction, visualization and graphic presentations, construction administration, and project management/construction administration services.

Coordinate and Collaborate with differing agencies within the City services such as public works, fire department, police department, parks and recreations, and any other personnel to establish good communications, trust, and quality projects.

As an architect with over thirty years of experience with fifteen of them being through my own firm we feel we are uniquely qualified to be a strong advocate for the City of Hemet’s overall Strategic Plan and will be an asset to the City.

Rubio Medina, Architect SOQ for City of Hemet On-Call Architectural Engineering Services: 14 Manhattan Heights Park Restroom Study
Manhattan Beach, CA

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Manhattan Heights public restrooms do not fully support the needs of the park on an ongoing basis.

The park is served by a recreation building which houses multiple functions including after school programs, summer camps, softball concession stand storage, park storage, and public restrooms. The current configuration does not meet peak demands of the park which is crowded during softball games nor are any of the public restrooms compliant with current accessibility standards.

Rubio Medina, Architect was hired to conduct a feasibility study to review current infrastructure including electrical and plumbing systems, to determine the best solution for the City of Manhattan Beach Parks Department programming including review of expansion of the recreation building to accommodate more restrooms, renovating existing spaces to make them more compliant, and or to review installation of a new free standing prefabricated restroom building.

Through a series of meetings and workshops, options were coalesced down to two feasible options:
renovate the existing spaces; renovate and expand the existing spaces. The study is currently being finalized and preparing for review by City Council for appropriate funding and authorization to begin the construction drawings and cost estimates.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Templeton Community Services District (TCSD) hired Rubio Medina, Architect to provide a Phase 1 study to upgrade and modernize their single fire station. A small town their current facility houses many services and until recently was a part time/volunteer department. After passing a bond measure the fire department has transitioned into a full time/paid volunteer station.

The current configuration does not have adequate spaces for a modern fire station nor address the needs of a full-time station as there are minimal dorms, showers, no kitchen, dining, or day room, proper storage, workout room, or other amenities.

Rubio Medina, Architect is currently providing a facility assessment to identify current maintenance and operational challenges, programming of future spaces, planning and conceptual design for an expansion to contain up to six dorm rooms, showers, lockers, additional storage, and kitchen/dining/day room. A comprehensive cost model will be generated to include not only construction costs of the remodel and expansion but additional soft costs such as special inspection. The expansion and renovation is proposed to add a two-story living and sleeping quarters of approximately 3.400SF and the remodel of approximately 1,500SF to create new public lobby, fire administration functions, and conference rooms at a construction cost of just over $5 million.

With the Phase 1 study completed, we are currently completing construction documents and preparing plans and specifications to be permitted, bid, and constructed.

STUDIO 2G ARCHITECTS | APPROACH & UNDERSTANDING
CITY OF HEMET: ON-CALL ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING (A/E) SERVICES S2G | 18 studio 2G Architects understands the City of Hemet’s goal of establishing flexible, on-call partnerships with qualified architectural and engineering (A/E) teams to support a
diverse range of capital improvement and facility-related projects. We recognize that the City’s on-call A/E services will encompass both small-scale assignments and complex multiphase projects, often requiring rapid response times and a collaborative, solutions-focused approach.

Our proposed approach is grounded in three guiding principles:
responsiveness, quality, and value. These principles inform every phase of our work, from initial task order scoping to project closeout, ensuring that each assignment—regardless of size or complexity—is delivered with exceptional care and attention to the City’s goals, budgets, and timelines.

Understanding of Scope and Project Types
We understand that services under this contract may include:
• Architectural planning and design for new facilities or renovations, including public safety buildings, fire training facilities, community centers, restrooms, and park
structures.
• Development of conceptual designs, renderings, and public presentation materials to support stakeholder engagement and project approvals.
• Preparation of detailed construction documents,
specifications, and cost estimates.
• Permitting support, including submittals, plan check
responses, and coordination with regulatory agencies and CEQA requirements.
• Construction administration services, such as submittal reviews, RFIs, site observations, and coordination with contractors and City staff.
• Optional services like feasibility studies, building system evaluations, and sustainability consulting (e.g., LEEDequivalent strategies).

We also understand that assignments may arise from various funding sources, including federal or state grants, which can impose specific compliance, reporting, and documentation requirements.

Our Approach

1. Task Order Management
• Upon receiving a task order or RLP from the City, we will conduct a thorough review to confirm the scope, schedule, budget constraints, and specific regulatory or stakeholder requirements.
• We will rapidly assemble the appropriate team of
professionals tailored to the project’s needs, including subconsultants for structural, MEP, civil, landscape
architecture, sustainability, and other specialties.
• A clear work plan, schedule, and communication protocol will be established to ensure alignment with City staff expectations.

2. Collaborative Design Process
• Our approach emphasizes open communication and close
collaboration with City project managers, stakeholders, and the public to ensure project goals and expectations are clearly defined and achieved.
• Early in each project, we conduct design workshops and stakeholder meetings to explore design alternatives,
identify potential challenges, and establish a clear, shared vision for the project.
• We create highly visual presentation materials—including renderings, 2D/3D models, and materials boards—to
support stakeholder understanding, promote informed
decision-making, and secure project buy-in.
• We prioritize precise coordination and transparent
communication throughout every project phase.

To facilitate this, we leverage SmartSheets project
management software to keep our entire team, City staff, and stakeholders aligned on tasks, deadlines, RFIs, and deliverables. Our Weekly Tracker in SmartSheet offers
an accessible, real-time snapshot of progress, milestone status, upcoming deadlines, and key action items. This
centralized platform enhances accountability, fosters
visibility, and streamlines communication, ensuring all participants remain informed and engaged.

3. Code and Regulatory Compliance
• We prioritize early identification of regulatory issues, including ADA compliance, fire/life safety, and energy
codes.
• Our team includes code specialists adept at navigating California Building Code, Title 24 energy requirements, CEQA, and agency-specific standards.
• We work proactively with City staff and other agencies to avoid delays during plan check and permitting.

Approach & Understanding
