A. The CONSULTANT, at the CONSULTANT’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies:

1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. The Consultant shall require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by the CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by the CONSULTANT for City.

2. General Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities
of the CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may

RFQ 25-003 City of Hermosa Beach

arise from the CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by the CONSULTANT or by its employees, subcontractors, or sub-consultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by City, and shall be endorsed as follows.

CONSULTANT also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONSULTANT, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”

2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any selfinsured retention the CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

RFQ 25-003 City of Hermosa Beach

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days written notice has been received by the CI
CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against CONSULTANT arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the CITY. At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement.

Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.

G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible

RFQ 25-003 City of Hermosa Beach

shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. Consultant understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by Consultant as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should City pay the SIR or deductible on Consultant’s behalf upon the Consultant’s failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any action against Consultant for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by City due to the breach.
18 USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any sub-consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.
19 FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The
acceptance by the CONSULTANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of the CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT’S work or services.

Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of the CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by the CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of the CONSULTANT, its employees, subconsultants and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by the CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by the Consultant, its employees, sub-consultants and agents.
20 CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during the City’s review of the Consultant’s report or plans. Should the Consultant fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by the CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to the CONSULTANT. In addition

RFQ 25-003 City of Hermosa Beach

to all other available remedies, the City may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by the City or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.
21 NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to
CONSULTANT by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient funds for payment of CONSULTANT’S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONSULTANT’S services only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of such fiscal year.

STAFFING ON-CALL PROJECTS
With on-call work being a large portion of our work, we have purposefully built versatile teams within our growing 40-person firm in order to adjust and surge resources as needed for multiple, concurrent projects.

Our approach to staffing your projects is characterized by the following five commitments:

1. PRINCIPAL POINT-OF-CONTACT
Principals play a key role in understanding your needs and stay involved throughout the life of any project to assure we’re exceeding your expectations. We dedicate a principal to each of our clients.

To address client satisfaction from day one, our Principal-in-Charge, PariSima Hassani, will have a key role in developing an initial understanding of your goals and objectives. She will periodically meet with you to develop and maintain a performance “scorecard” and make whatever changes might be necessary to assure that we not only meet but exceed your expectations.

2. SENIOR LEADERSHIP PARTICIPATION
Experience underwrites the ability to lead multiple, diverse and complex projects under an on-call contract. Our core management and design teams are led by senior-level professionals (20-40 years of experience each) who leverage lessons learned to foresee challenges and guide projects toward successful outcomes. We are committed to active leadership and participation of senior staff on all of our projects regardless of size or scope.

3. CONTINUITY OF CONTRACT MANAGER / PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Leadership is essential to monitor and measure that “actual” results are consistent with “planned” results. We assign a Contract Manager / Project Manager to each project. Your Contract Manager / Project Manager, Jon Freeberg, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, will be committed for the life of the projects and will manage the process from project kick-off through close-out.

4. APPROPRIATE SELECTION OF TEAM MEMBERS
We carefully select and assign team members to each project, aligning client goals and project needs with staff availability and expertise. With a staff of 40, Westgroup Designs has accomplished architects, designers, planners and consultants to dedicate to you. Our team is ready to begin working on your projects immediately.

We thoughtfully select and assign consultants to each project, ensuring alignment between client goals, project requirements, availability, and expertise. Our proposed consultants are chosen based on proven, successful partnerships and their specialized experience with project types outlined in your RFQ. We have collaborated with each of the listed consultants on numerous projects over the past two decades.

5. DEDICATED QUALITY MANAGEMENT TEAM
Our Quality Management program is led by our Director of Project Delivery, Craig Whitridge, AIA, who brings more than 35 years of architectural production expertise to every project. Craig assures that all documentation is consistent and presented in a logical and clearly understandable manner.

All personnel assigned to your projects will be fully qualified, experienced, and properly and appropriately licensed to perform the architectural services that will be assigned to them.

HVAC & SUSTAINABILITY STUDIES
Building assessments to reduce resource consumption and improve your carbon footprint.

By analyzing building energy characteristics, systems, and equipment, P2S can help develop sustainable solutions to reduce energy consumption, water consumption, and carbon footprint throughout your facility.

Our recommendations are backed by supporting calculations, energy models, and trend data used for model calibration and calculations. The best path forward will be determined based on initial cost, operational, cost construction period, as well as energy efficiency to ensure all facility needs are met.

MASTER PLANNING & FEASIBILITY STUDIES
Increase capacity and system efficiency - while minimizing operation and maintenance costs.

Our team has performed over 60 master plans for various clients. As a full service engineering firm, P2S can guide your master plan from the assessment phase to the actual design and construction phase. From conducting site visits, collaborating with facilities maintenance staff, and to developing a final report and analysis of your facilities, our engineers make cost-effective and energy efficient recommendations to suit your facility’s needs.

CENTRAL PLANT DESIGN
Cooling, heating, and power generation options to suit your campus.

We have over 100 registered mechanical engineers on our team who have provided design, sequence of operations, and even commissioning for central plants. Our team is also well-versed in designing for cooling, heating, and co-generation plants of varying sizes. Taking into consideration future needs for expansion and central plant capacity is one way to our team ensures longevity for your facilities.

Hale Building MEP Evaluation
The City of Pasadena, in an effort to update an outdated mechanical system, intends to replace the water source heat pump system in the Hale Building. The building is approximately 30,000 SF with 3-stories above grade and a basement level, housing government services for the City and consists of a public area on the ground floor, open offices, private offices, and meeting rooms throughout the building.

The existing mechanical system consists of 42 water-source heat pumps providing cooling and heating to the building. A boiler, cooling tower, and two pumps are located on the roof to distribute condenser water to each of the heat pumps. There are also two outside air fans providing ventilation and several exhaust fans for general exhaust and equipment rooms. Most of the heat pumps in the building are more than 20 years old. P2S provided a report summarizing the existing systems, discussion of potential replacement options, and a recommendation for which option will provide the best life-cycle cost for the City, as well as a study evaluating four system options to replace the existing heat pump system.

Public Safety Campus
The City of Indio expanded its Public Safety Campus to include three new buildings: Public Safety Support (PSS) Building (~23,000 SF), a Communications/Dispatch Center (~7,400 SF), and a Fire Station (~13,267 SF). This expansion bolstered the city’s public safety infrastructure, enhancing response capabilities and operational efficiency across essential services. P2S provided Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) design services for the new buildings, ensuring robust, energy-efficient, and compliant systems across all facilities.

P2S supported this project across all design phases, from schematic design through construction support, covering critical aspects of the MEP design process to meet compliance, energy efficiency, and safety requirements. Some of the mechanical deliverables included trunk line plans with prelim sizes, roof plans with prelim unit quantities, sizes and clearances. The electrical deliverables included electrical room prelim layouts.

Highlights of the project include generator back up (72 hours) for all buildings, UPS back up for data rooms, photovoltaic for the facility, redundant mechanical systems (n+1), electric vehicle chargers, and specialty vehicle exhaust in truck apparatus bays. This new state of the art dispatch center and public services buildings, which is now the heart of Indio’s communication, will be the home to police and fire personnel.

The expansion of buildings will provide a new communication center and new living quarters for firefighters.

Services from the new facilities will enhance the quality of life for the Coachella Valley residents and visitors.

City of Irvine: Operations Support Facility (OSF) Improvements Owner Contact: N/A – OCMI was a subconsultant to the AE Role: Cost Estimator
Dates of Performance: 4/2021 – 12/2022
Value: Varies by project ($18,810 OCMI Fee)
OCMI provided cost estimating services to the architect for various facility improvements, with John focused on estimates at the Design Development and Construction Document milestones. Projects included: expansion of the administration building (5,000 SF addition); installation of fire sprinklers in the administration building and the operations warehouse; relocation of the existing fueling island (including above-ground fueling tanks); relocation of the existing streets maintenance building; and expansion of the employee and public parking lots.

City of Hermosa Beach: Community Theater Needs Assessment Owner Contact: N/A – OCMI was a subconsultant to the AE Role: Cost Estimator
Dates of Performance: 5/2020 – 8/2020
Value: $5M-$13.4M, depending on options ($3,500 OCMI Fee) OCMI provided Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimates for renovation assessments to the 8,000 SF historic City of Hermosa Beach Community Theater. The venue is a 502-seat theater, along with an 85-seat second-story theater. The entire community services facility also houses a senior center, museum, dance hall, meeting rooms, and classrooms. The venue is primarily used as a rentable space for many events, including film screenings, special events, and community gatherings. Our estimates helped the Owner compare a major renovation/addition to transform the facility into a regional performing arts center versus a conservative renovation that would maintain and enhance a more community-focused approach. Our estimates were between $5M-$13.4M, depending on direction to proceed.

City of Hermosa Beach: Records Department Tenant Improvement Owner Contact: N/A – OCMI was a subconsultant to the AE Role: Cost Estimator
Dates of Performance: 3/2024 – 4/2024
Value: $557,000 ($4,488 OCMI Fee)
OCMI provided a ROM estimate for options to renovate 1,855 SF for the City of Hermosa Beach at a community center that would be better suited as a records department. The space was being converted from a former shower and locker room area and had to be properly set up for a new use, ensuring safe retention and processing of public records.

Improvements were intended to bring the space to current health and building safety standards by adding a new sprinkler system, a new ventilation system, pipe repairs, seismic retrofit of records shelving, and lighting modifications.

3.2.6 Project Management Plan
Westgroup Designs approaches on-call assignments with a structured, transparent, and proactive management process that emphasizes responsiveness, clear communication, and accountability. Our goal is to ensure that each task order is delivered on schedule, within budget, and to the highest standard of quality.

Responsiveness & Communication
Upon receiving a request from the City, our Contract Manager will promptly confirm receipt, review the scope, and mobilize the appropriate team. The Contract Manager serves as the single point of contact with the City, consolidating communication across subconsultants, task-specific project managers, and technical staff. This ensures clarity, avoids duplication, and provides the City with a consistent and accountable liaison.

Oversight of Task Orders
Each task order is tracked through our internal project management system, which monitors schedule, budget, and deliverables. Regular updates and milestone reviews will be shared with the City, ensuring alignment with priorities and early identification of potential risks.

Schedule, Budget, and QA/QC
We rely on milestone-based schedules and cost tracking to maintain tight control of time and budget. Our Director of Project Delivery oversees a rigorous QA/QC process, applying multi-level reviews to confirm accuracy, compliance, and constructability. This ensures that all deliverables are clear, coordinated, and buildable.

Work Plan for a Typical Project
While each task order is tailored to the City’s needs, our general project workflow includes the following phases:

1. PRE-DESIGN.

Our process begins with visioning and programming, engaging stakeholders to align goals and confirm project direction. This phase establishes guiding principles, verifies the building program or master plan, and incorporates site analysis, standards, and early conceptual ideas.

Deliverables may include:
• Visioning documentation I Guiding principles I Site context and analysis I Master Plan/program verification I Standards implementation I Preliminary design concepts I Initial code review I Preliminary cost and phasing review
Checkpoints:
• Client Review: Validate vision and guiding principles I Budget Check: Confirm feasibility against preliminary cost estimates I QA/QC: Early review of program alignment and compliance I Schedule:

Establish project milestones and phasing strategy.

2. DESIGN PACKAGE
Schematic Design. We translate the program into functional design solutions aligned with budget goals.

Concepts are refined and informed by early analysis, with guiding principles at the forefront.

Design Development. Details are advanced to define performance requirements and coordinate systems.

Architecture, interiors, and engineering are integrated to ensure accuracy and constructability.

Deliverables may include:
• Refined design concepts I Basic building systems infrastructure I Code review I 3D BIM renderings I Cost plan and updated estimates I Detailed building components (architecture, engineering, interiors) I Preliminary specifications
Checkpoints:
• Client Review: Design presentations to confirm direction I Budget Check: Refine cost estimates against scope I QA/QC: Multi-disciplinary review for coordination I Schedule: Update timelines based on design progress.

3. FINAL DESIGN & BIDDING
Construction Documents / Agency Approval. Comprehensive documents are prepared with emphasis on coordination, accuracy, and quality. BIM integration ensures consistency, and agency reviews are completed for approvals.

Bidding. We support the City in securing qualified contractors through a transparent process. This includes preparation of bid packages, pre-bid meetings, addenda, and review of contractor proposals.

WD assists in addressing pre-construction RFIs and evaluating substitutions.

Deliverables may include:
• Final construction documents I Agency approvals I Constructability review I Final cost estimate I Final schedule
Checkpoints:
• Client Review: Final review of construction package I Budget Check: Align final estimate with funding availability I QA/QC: Comprehensive review of all documents before submittal I Schedule:

Confirm readiness for bidding and award.

4. CONSTRUCTION
Construction Administration & Occupancy. Our project leaders maintain continuity and oversee construction with responsive communication and thorough knowledge of project intent. We review submittals, provide progress updates, and monitor cost and schedule. Close-out activities ensure a smooth transition to occupancy.

Deliverables may include:
• Shop drawing review I Construction progress updates I Project cost updates I O&M manuals I Occupancy documentation I Construction management support if needed I Cost and schedule review I Value engineering analysis if required
Checkpoints:
• Client Review: Regular progress meetings and milestone walkthroughs I Budget Check: Ongoing review of construction costs and change orders I QA/QC: Site observations, field reports, and submittal reviews I Schedule: Continuous monitoring to track contractor progress.

Through this disciplined approach, combining responsive management, strong communication, rigorous QA/QC, and a clear step-by-step process, Westgroup Designs ensures that every task order is executed efficiently, transparently, and to the City’s highest standards.

On-Call Professional Architectural Services
City of Hermosa Beach, California
Paul Murdoch Architects is pleased to present this Statement of Qualifications, in association with our diverse team of experienced sub-consultants, for On-Call Professional Architectural Services with the City of Hermosa Beach.

Since the founding of our firm thirty-four years ago, we have worked with public agencies on projects that have strengthened communities through architecture featuring functional clarity, contextual sensi- tivity, and sustainable design. Founded as a practice dedicated to the poetic exploration of sustainable architecture and creative design excellence, we believe we are well suited to support the City’s pro- gram of upcoming projects.

A firm dedicated to the poetic exploration of sustainable architecture Paul Murdoch Architects is a professional corporation based in Los Angeles, California. The firm specializes in architecture, urban design, and interiors for civic, cultural, and educational institutions.

Since our founding in 1991, we have worked continuously for thirty-four years, guided by the belief that design should serve as a catalyst for community identity, environmental stewardship, and human connection.

Our practice is recognized as a leader in sustainable design, having pioneered some of the earliest initiatives in Los Angeles. Through the poetics of sustainable architecture, we design forms, lead processes, and invent project typologies that shape new human activity. We see ourselves as creative agents of social and environmental change for institutions and communities seeking to improve 21st-century life.

We believe the most sustainable forms are those that emerge through collaborative disclosure. By enhancing the qualities latent in a place and inherent in human activity, design acquires vitality. As context and activities evolve over time, form must be original in derivation yet adaptable to change.

This is not merely a technical challenge, but one of poetic dimension. When form is alive with the spirit of place and people, it gains a vitality that can endure for generations. Nurturing that vitality is our calling.

As an architectural studio, we explore a wide range of project types and scales, always striving to exceed client expectations. Our goal is to broaden a project’s definition through persistent inquiry, explore its community of constituents, examine value for limited resources, and find innovative responses that transform a community’s capacity to meet present and future needs. In Hermosa Beach, this approach aligns with the City’s values of sustainability, coastal resilience, and community identity.

Our design process combines advanced three-dimensional modeling with physical study models and integrated energy and daylight simulations. The firm is fully insured, led by licensed architects, and certified as a Small Business Enterprise (SBE Micro). With the enclosed Statement of Qualifications, we express our commitment to supporting the City of Hermosa Beach in delivering thoughtful, resilient, and well-crafted public projects. Our E&O change order performance for public projects is consistently in the 2% range. Paul Murdoch Architects has never failed or refused to complete a contract.

The Martin Luther King, Jr. Medical Campus Transitional Age Youth (TAY) Drop-In Center is conceived as a safe haven and supportive hub for young adults in South Los Angeles. Serving a historically underserved community, the center is both a place of refuge and a springboard for opportunity, offering counseling, social services, and life-skills programming within a welcoming, restorative environment.

Located within the County’s expanding MLK Medical Campus in Willowbrook, the two-story, 9,400 SF facility is designed to integrate seamlessly with the broader network of health, social, and educational resources. Its architecture emphasizes openness, natural light, and shared spaces — a living room, café, classrooms, and support services — reflecting the belief that environments can nurture stability, dignity, and resilience.

As part of Los Angeles County’s on-call program, the project extends the campus vision of equity and holistic care, providing a model for how civic architecture can promote wellbeing, strengthen community identity, and anchor sustainable futures for transitional age youth.

Project Management Plan
PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM

PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM 30Project Management Plan On-Call Contract Experience
Our consistent track record of repeat clients is a testament to exceeding public stakeholder expectations. Current multi-year, on-call contracts with the County of Los Angeles Parks and Recreation Department, County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, City of Los Angeles Public Works Department, US General Services Administration, repeated 5-year terms as a National Park Service IDIQ contractor and our recent on-call contract for Los Angeles World Airports, means we understand task-based contracts and working on a wide range of efforts. Our approach to managing this On-Call is informed by our experience in others where we had to perform multiple task orders concurrently, finding the resources to do so, and address a wide, unpredictable range of assignment types, thereby requiring informed and coordinated input from our client, stakeholders and subconsultants with relevant expertise. We expect to manage this contract similarly, calling on our considerable team and mutual history with BOE project delivery.

Hands-On Project Leadership
Registered architects and principals, Paul Murdoch and Milena Murdoch bring over seventy-five years of collective experience in strategic thinking, design and construction to each project. Experience with planning, programming, design and construction phases on a wide range of public and institutional projects, and longstanding relationships with a dedicated team of subconsultants, make us well suited to address project requirements and collaborate with client representatives.

Paul Murdoch leads the vision for each project as the Principal in Charge and Lead Architect. Milena Murdoch heads many of the firm’s projects as Principal Project Manager. At the core of our approach for each project is the hands-on involvement and oversight of each principal on a day-to-day basis – assuring continuity through the project’s development and conformance with its planning, design and budgetary goals. Our familiarity with institutional, financial reporting and project delivery requirements helps to facilitate timely project approvals.

The Project Manager reviews projects weekly to assess progress, discuss problems, and review staffing to alert the client of any problems that need resolution. During each review, the Project Manager will generate/ evaluate a report to monitor the progress of each project in relation to the established schedule.

Any required adjustments can be determined with the owner during these review sessions. Staffing assignments are adjusted as the project needs dictate. Essential to efficient and timely delivery of services is the experience of the design team with multiple agency review processes, inclusive programming and design participation by the client, and familiarity with requirements of the building type.

Managing On-Call Contracts

PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM 31Project Management Plan Project Delivery
The firm has successfully produced construction documents for both private and public projects for over 30 years. Project budgets have ranged from less than $1 million to over $300 million in scale and from modest low-bid projects to negotiated progressive design-build projects. Roughly 80% of our work is public using various delivery methods, so there is familiarity with the administration process required during construction. These have involved various project delivery methods that include Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, P3, Lease-Leaseback, CM/GC and Negotiated Guaranteed Maximum Price.

Problem Solving
As the architects for Federal, State of California, County and civic projects, the firm is particularly well qualified for meeting public agency requirements including design excellence. We have earned a reputation for creatively reframing a given problem in a way that expands possibilities and optimizes available resources. We help public agencies with many “firsts.” For example, to advance the State of California’s renewable energy policy goals, the firm designed the first new Zero Net Energy (ZNE) facility for the Department of General Services (DGS) and Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). To achieve UCLA’s goal for developing molecular-level research in food science, the firm invented a new type of greenhouse laboratory. To help revitalize a community in South Los Angeles, the firm created the first public roof garden for the City of Los Angeles to provide much-needed, safe park space.

Discipline Coordination
We have a strong team of subconsultants experienced in the programming and design of relevant facilities. For each task order, we would identify and assemble a capable, diverse team of subconsultants experienced in the programming and design of relevant projects. The firm has generally worked with members of the proposed consultant team and share a common expectation for thorough documentation and a responsive process. All team members utilize compatible software to design and document their work that assists our quality assurance process. Use of BIM with consultants helps facilitate well-coordinated documents. Regular design meetings keep the team on track and milestone submittals are opportunities for careful coordination and checking.

The firm has used BIM for 20 years and now produces design and construction documents in Revit and Archicad, using advanced, three-dimensional virtual models in the design process. Study of daylight and energy modeling is also integrated into the design process. Microsoft Project is typically used for project scheduling.

PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM 32Project Management Plan Resource Availability & Ability to Deliver on High Volume of Project Assignments Through cultural, education, recreation, and transportation work under on-call and IDIQ contracts, the team has long-term working relationships with the many public agencies.

We have completed over fifty task orders under two on-call contracts with NPS for the $56 million, 2,200-acre Flight 93 National Memorial, implemented over a multi-phased fifteen-year period, produced a master plan for a $300 million, 2-phased Healthy Living Campus for BCHD, while also executing multiple, simultaneous task orders that have ranged from small accessibility improvements to conceptual design and feasibility studies, including 18 task orders for LAWA. We have been able to add staff as necessary to address project requirements and through relationships with larger firms who can deepen our bench. Named a Top 50 US Firm by Architect Magazine, it was noted: “Paul Murdoch Architects shows that small firms can compete with big multinationals.” Ability to Navigate a Project through a City’s Municipal Plan Check Process An early proponent of sustainable, transportation-oriented development, we are primarily focused on facilities that serve communities, with a firm belief that public work involves the most important services we can render as architects. We have successfully lead projects for federal, state, county and municipal agencies having jurisdiction. We conduct a rigorous process that is front-loaded with research of municipal requirements through a collaborative, pro-active process of dialogue with stakeholders and agencies. We also strive to build teams with subconsultants who have relationships and experience with the local conditions and decision makers in a community.

Experience Developing Projects within a Political Environment Good collaborators, facilitators, and teammates, we have a track record of helping to meet the programmatic and infrastructural needs of rapidly expanding urban populations through public placemaking. We generally include a professional community engagement facilitator in our project team who has strong relationships with the community in which a project occurs. All of our public projects use outreach methods to solicit the input and involvement of local stakeholders throughout an iterative process of design and feedback.

Budgeting, Cost & Quality Control
The principals recognize the essential design management responsibilities of helping to define project parameters and then adhere to the approved budget and schedule with the design. We review cost/benefit evaluations relative to function, flexibility of use, durability and your available fiscal resources.

PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM 33Project Management Plan The firm typically works with a professional cost consultant to generate cost estimates at interim stages from coordinated milestone documents to assure adherence with design intent and to achieve accurate estimating. Consequently, cost contingencies are minimized, thus creating a more predictable and competitive range of bids for a project. Often there are varied aspirations for a project, so magnitudes of cost are defined through a value engineering analysis that are commensurate with a range of opportunities for a project. This helps the owner decide the best value for the project expectations.

The construction change order rate due to errors and omissions for our projects over the last 10 years has averaged less than 2% of construction cost. This demonstrates the quality of the firm’s documents despite the originality of many of its projects. Good coordination with sub-consultants reduces change orders and delays. If the documents presume the Contractor to know, interpret or assume the design intent of the building instructions, the drawings are probably not thorough or complete enough, so this is addressed through a rigorous internal Quality Assurance/ Quality Control process that typically includes a third-party review. A Documents Quality Manager reviews each project at milestones for technical compliance and coordination.

Task Order Organization
When considering a new Task Order assignment, the Prime Consultant leads will assemble appropriate lead staff to discuss and define the best team of consultants for the Task Order relative to design, planning, technical capability, availability and inclusivity performance and goals. The Principal Project Manager will coordinate the proposal, and with the Principal-in-Charge, will negotiate with the subconsultants and BOE to come to terms.

Our Principal Project Manager oversees timely production and creating a controlled design process working closely with BOE and our Senior Design Manager. Regular and milestone meetings are scheduled in coordination with Hermosa Beach staff and timelines. Fundamental workflow of design deliverables incorporating the control over design objectives, inputs, outputs, quality assurance and cost management. To achieve this, we incorporate several rounds of internal reviews and client input reviews for BOE and stakeholders.

The workflow creates a clear structure and schedule for decision making from the outset, while the proposed internal reviews enhance the best value for the project. Every client review is preceded by an internal review of our review board to present coherent documents and provide feedback to the team and quality reassurance. The following diagram represents a general workflow and collaboration process.

PAUL MURDOCH ARCHITECTS + TEAM 34Project Management Plan To keep the project within the project scope and on track we provide BOE with an up-to-date Project Management Plan (PMP) in line with the statement of work. This plan is not just a deliverable but the guideline for the project team and the benchmark for all progress reports. We enhance the PMP and the Progress Report with cost management, that is regularly updated with the development of the project.

Permitting
Our team provides an understanding of all applicable codes and design requirements applicable to BOE projects and processes needed to execute the work. This includes the experience and ability to obtain permits and approvals from regulatory agencies, authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ), such as the Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety (LADBS), Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD), Los Angeles Bureau of Engineering (LABOE), Los Angeles Department of Water & Power (LADWP), Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT). Paul Murdoch + Team bring decades of experience coordinating work across and within the myriad departments at the City, County, Regional and Federal levels.

Proximity
Each of the Applicant team leadership firms have a presence in Los Angeles and the ability to attend meetings and participate in site visits.

We understand that the Contracted Firms will be eligible to be awarded Project(s)- specific Task Orders to provide services as required to support BOE’s capital projects, including planning, design, architecture, engineering, site-investigations, permitting and agency approvals, professional support during bidding and procurement stages, construction administration support, and a wide range of technical services.

Paul Murdoch Architects has carefully reviewed the RFQ, amendments and associated responses to questions to submit a fully compliant statement of qualifications that addresses all the requirements requested in the RFQ. We are an architecturally led team under direction of our Principal in Charge and Principal Project Manager, BOE’s primary points of contact for all design aspects.
