5.5 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or self-insured retention must be approved in writing by the City in advance and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers, in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or selfinsured retention.

At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City.

Consultant shall promptly furnish, at City’s request, copies of actual policies including all declaration pages, endorsements, exclusions and any other policy documents City requires to verify coverage.

Consultant shall either: (1) include all subconsultants or subcontractors engaged in any Work or Services for Consultant relating to this Agreement as additional named insureds under the Consultant’s insurance policies, or (2) Consultant shall be responsible for causing its subconsultants or subcontractors to procure and maintain the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of the insurance requirements set forth in this section, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers, as additional insureds to their respective policies.

Laguna Hills, CA 92653
Subject: Proposal for On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management and Support Services (CIVIL ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES ONLY)

Dear Mr. Ames:

Hunsaker & Associates Irvine, Inc. (H&A) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management and Support Services for the City of Laguna Hills. H&A was established as a California Corporation in 1976. Our company is a full-service civil engineering, surveying, and planning firm. We have offices in Irvine and Riverside with a combined staff of over 200 employees.

Hunsaker’s headquarters is located in Irvine (approximately 130 employees), we have a branch office in the City of Riverside (approximately 20 employees), and a field staff of approximately 50 employees.

The firm remains a closely held corporation with five principals having authorization to bind the firm to contracts (Doug Staley, Kamal Karam, Fred Graylee, Joe Wightman and Bradley Hay). All are Southern California residents and active project managers, and each has over 30 years of experience in their discipline.

Hunsaker offers the following categories of services to public agencies and private clients:

Engineering Services: Since 1976, H&A has worked with both public and private sector clients to design local streets and arterial roadways, drainage systems, WQMPs and treatment facilities, flood control channels, water and wastewater systems, and other backbone infrastructure for numerous projects throughout Southern California. We provide concise, cost effective, and accurate designs.

Land Surveying and Mapping Services: Our survey group provides a comprehensive range of stateof-the-art surveying for our clients, combining traditional surveying techniques with advanced surveying technology. In the office, H&A is staffed with licensed surveyors who have extensive experience with preparation and interpretation of legal descriptions and mapping procedures. Our 21 field crews are fully equipped with sophisticated survey instruments, and each is led by a certified party chief.

Planning Services: H&A staff can create specific plans; civil support; urban design; master plans; re-use and redevelopment planning; site/land use planning; community planning; general plans; land subdivision tentative mapping, entitlement-to-use processing; regulatory permits; and public information program.

If special skills not available from H&A personnel are needed for an assignment, we will augment our inhouse staff with highly qualified firms that are well-known experts in their fields. The following firms will be part of the H&A team if necessary:
 NUVIS – Landscape Architecture (DBE firm)
 AGA Engineers – Traffic (DBE firm)
 Leighton Consulting – Geotechnical
 Cho Design Associates, Inc. (CDA) – Structural (DBE firm)  TR Design Group – Building Architect
 Ultrasystems - Environmental
 Boudreau Pipeline – Potholing
 R. J. Lung & Associates, Inc. – Aerial Photogrammetry (DBE firm) H&A’s legal counsel has reviewed the Model Professional Services Agreement and identified a few wording changes that are needed to protect the City by meeting conditions for professional liability insurance, so the City is covered in case of an incident and to be in full compliance with the California Civil Code. From our past experiences, a brief telephone call between the City Attorney and H&A’s lawyer conversing with legal terminology can usually resolve the issues amicably.

H&A would welcome the opportunity to provide civil engineering services to the City of Laguna Hills.

If you have any questions, you can contact me at [email protected] or (949) 583-1010.

Sincerely,
HUNSAKER & ASSOCIATES IRVINE, INC.

On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management, and Support Services F. Project Understanding, Overview and Approach, Page 14 F. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING, OVERVIEW AND APPROACH
H&A has started this section with a general description of the H&A on-call task order process which is then followed by the draft work plan based on the sample project described in the RFP to cover several topics.

ON-CALL TASK ORDER PROCESS
The process described provides improved performance by all involved since it clearly communicates the project goals, definition of success and the constraints and concerns of the Client. The entire process can be completed in under one week if the task order needs to be expedited and Client staff is not limited by procedures and reviews that add time.

Task Order Request Prepared by Client
The Client Project Manager will prepare a task order request for available information to provide H&A an approximate scope of work and any critical concerns and constraints with initial goals defined. This may be a formal written document, email or verbal phone discussion.

Phone Call of Email from Client to H&A Contract Manager The request will be communicated to the H&A Contract Manager for consideration.

Initial H&A Scoping Meeting (Contract Manager and Task Manager) The H&A Contract Manager will assign a Task Manager for the proposal preparation and performance of the task once NTP has been received. This benefits the Client by having the Task Manager involved from the beginning so he/she is fully aware of the project evolution and the issues discussed. Together they will review the task order request, identify issues to be clarified, concerns to be addressed and resources needed for execution.

Page 575 of 1151 ends

On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management, and Support Services F. Project Understanding, Overview and Approach, Page 15 Client Staff Meeting with Client Project Manager and Client O&M Staff to clarify Task Order Request and Goals The H&A Contract Manager and Task Manager will meet with the Client staff and the Client Operations and Maintenance personnel (O&M staff are often very knowledgeable of the problems to be addressed and goals of the task). An agenda based on the review of the request by H&A will be used to focus the meeting and ensure all issues are discussed and resolved so a formal task order proposal can be developed.

Site Visit (preferably combined with Client Staff meeting) The H&A staff have found that a meeting on site with all Client staff involved can often result in more accurate problem definition, potential solutions identified and clarification of concerns and constraints, particularly with O&M staff involvement since they have “live with the problem” and have intimate understanding of the situation.

H&A develop Task Order Proposal
The Task Manager will coordinate with the assigned technical staff to develop a comprehensive task order that addresses all aspects of the work including:
 Scope of Work including what activities are required and what deliverables will be produced. H&A often attaches a sketch of the project limits and/or other documents to define the scope such as photos and notes. Depending on the size and complexity of the task, the scope may be detailed with a work breakdown structure (WBS) that will also be used for the schedule and cost.
 Schedule of performing the task including any WBS breakdown, will be prepared. The overall duration and completion date will consider the information from the Client staff and any variance identified.  Cost breakdown identifying number of hours for each WBS activity for the labor categories provided in the base contract using contract billing rates plus expenses and subconsultant costs (if any)  When appropriate, initial identification of technical personnel assigned to the task team.

Submit Completed Task Order Proposal Documents
The task order proposal will be compiled and then checked by H&A management utilizing their decades of experience to confirm all aspects are covered and the schedule and cost are reasonable and sent to Client for review.

Review and Comment by Client Project Manager
The Client Project Manager will review the draft task order proposal and verify that it meets the needs of the Client as defined in the task order request. It may be perfect and ready for execution; however, typically there are adjustments that are needed to fully satisfy the client.

Revise and Resubmit for Execution
The task order proposal will be revised as needed and submitted to Client Project Manager for approval.

Client Approval of Task Order (Notice to Proceed)
The Client Project Manager will approve/execute the task order proposal and issue the notice to proceed so H&A can get started.

PROJECT CONTROLS
A work plan is only as good as the actual execution during the project evolution. H&A uses a 3 prong approach to project management – scope, schedule and budget. We recognize that the three factors interact constantly and must all be addressed simultaneously and continuously for success. Also that communications are critical to effective coordination of all aspects of a project into a seamless design and maintain client confidence (described in detail in Section H below).

Scope Control: Every H&A project starts with a project management plan that includes the contract scope of work, project schedule and overall budget. The project management plan divides the overall project into smaller tasks using a Work Breakdown Structure. Each task then has a scope, schedule and budget assigned and the linkages between tasks clearly identified. When an individual is assigned a task, the person receives the scope, schedule and budget for that work and is expected to meet those criteria.

H&A project managers use the MBWA (Management By Walking Around) approach developed at Hewlett-Packard. From the president down to the most junior project manager, each leader is outside of their office frequently overseeing their assigned staff, reviewing progress, answering questions and providing direction. For persons working from home, this involves the frequent use of informal Team/Zoom meetings where work products can be shared on computer screens to mimic the “over the shoulder” review process. This approach typically uncovers any problems before the reporting systems so we can expedite adjustments to benefit the City. Depending on the size and complexity of the project, this approach may be augmented by formal team meetings that typically include active subconsultants.

Schedule Control: The overall schedule will be divided per the Work Breakdown Structure described above under Scope.

H&A staff are familiar with Microsoft Project and other scheduling software programs and can provide City staff with the appropriate reports and files. The budget status typically links to the schedule status so the accounting reports often trigger schedule related actions. All variances (both negative and positive) are then investigated to determine the cause and effect of each one. If a problem or bad trend is determined to be present, a work around strategy is developed.

Possible actions include overtime, added staff, change in staff, use of senior staff for improved efficiency and other methods. The overall schedule is typically updated as part of the progress report so the client gets a formal monthly schedule status. However, H&A project managers do not wait for end of month reports and instead take immediate action if a problem is identified so the City will benefit from our proactive problem solving approach.

Budget Control: The project manager receives a weekly report of all costs incurred on the project including H&A labor, expenses and subconsultant invoices received. As noted, each task in the Work Breakdown Structure will have its own budget that will be formally monitored weekly. These are checked against the planned costs to identify any variances. All variances (both negative and positive) are then investigated to determine the cause and effect of each one. For budget variances, the same approach described above under Schedule is used to keep the project on track. The weekly reports on cost will then show the impact of the work around strategy and identify if additional actions are needed.

QUALITY CONTROL
H&A has always placed great emphasis on quality assurance. The documents that we develop will be subject to our established in-house Quality Control Procedures. All H&A personnel are trained in the procedures to be used for quality control checking so that all delivered documents, reports, and studies are of a quality that is consistent with professional standards and satisfies the specific requirements of each client. Elements include following:
 Review Comment Verification. Before any internal review of plans, a senior engineer will check that all prior comments have been addressed appropriately including the initial response and final action documented. From our experience

Page 577 of 1151 ends

On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management, and Support Services F. Project Understanding, Overview and Approach, Page 17 augmenting agency staff doing plan checking we understand the frustration of making the same comments when they were not addressed the first time.
 Intra-Discipline Review. Technical checking and design review activities are performed by each responsible design discipline under the direction of the designated lead engineer (e.g., checking pipe lengths and slopes vs. elevations for storm-drain profiles).
 Inter-Disciplinary Review. The IDR is done by senior engineers in all disciplines involved in the project to identify any conflicts between project components and resolve them among the design team (e.g., checking storm-drain profiles against utility plans for potential conflicts).
 Independent Technical Review. The ITR will be noted in the scope and performed by H&A staff with no previous involvement in the project to date. The purpose of this review is to provide a real-world check (2nd opinion) for the elements in the design or deliverable and provide a level of assurance that the document is done properly (e.g., checking the overall project configuration meets the identified goals and constraints effectively).  Constructability Review. A review of plans by our experienced staff with field background working with contractors assures that the project is cost-effective and constructible from the contractor's point of view (e.g., evaluating access for equipment and materials to construct storm-drain piping at specific stage of construction with limited space). The result is a better set of plans, specifications and estimates and fewer claims. H&A’s initial evaluation of this project is that constructability concerns are critical and will be considered from the start so we select the preferred alternative design with this issue in mind.

H&A management does Quality Assurance audits to ensure the quality control procedures are being followed. This involves review of documents such as “red line” markups and interviews with key individuals to confirm that the quality control process is being followed and that issues are properly resolved and changes implemented as necessary.

SPECIFIC PROJECT DRAFT WORK PLAN
Hunsaker creates a Work Breakdown Structure that is project specific and is a consistent framework for the scope, budget and schedule aspects. H&A will use the WBS as the basis for our project schedule and cost breakdown for each task order. The duration of each task will be addressed with City staff as the scope and budget for the task order are developed.

The following is our draft WBS for the RFP sample project.

Our proposed approach has been organized in a generally chronological sequence. Activities NOT listed in RFP are highlighted in green. Additional possible activities include geotechnical services, landscape design and traffic signal modifications such as traffic loop replacement, use of video controls and ADA upgrades to equipment and curb ramps.

The write-ups on the following page are listed on the adjacent WBS and expands on those tasks with additional detail.

The WBS is also used for the design schedule and cost breakdown developed for this proposal.

On-Call Civil Engineering, Project Management, and Support Services I. Communication Plan, Page 18
TASK 1 – PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Notice to Proceed
The City will issue the Notice to Proceed and that date will be reflected in the design schedule update included in the Project Management Plan.

Project Schedule
Immediately upon receipt of Notice to Proceed, we will
compile a Project Schedule based on the draft version
in this proposal.

TASK 2 – UTILITY NOTIFICATION
Initial notifications will be made to all identified utility owners immediately after the kick-off meeting. Also
drawings at 60% and 90% stages will be submitted to
the utility companies with copies of all correspondence and transmittals letters copied to the City project
manager. Comments provided by utility companies will
be communicated to the City project manager and
incorporated into the final design, as applicable.

TASK 3 – RECORDS RESEARCH
Research and data collection would include records
data gathering from all utilities and public agencies
operating facilities in the vicinity of the proposed
project. A complete utility research within the limits of the project will be conducted. All data gathered will be incorporated into the digital base-map and evaluated in conjunction with the field information to identify
inconsistencies, missing information and apparent
conflicts.

TASK 4 – TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY
Research on available survey control points and
monumentation will start the process. Field survey will establish the project control and existing monuments
will be located. Then field crews will gather the
topographic information, dip manholes and drain inlets
and locate surface utility features.

TASK 5 – PLANS, SPECS AND ESTIMATE
Products of this task will be submitted to the City at
60%, 90% and 100% (Final) completion levels. The

G. SCHEDULE
Hunsaker creates a Work Breakdown Structure that is project specific and is a consistent framework for the scope, budget and schedule aspects. H&A will use the WBS as the basis for our project schedule for each task order. The duration of each task will be addressed with City staff as the scope and budget for the task order are developed.

H. COMMUNICATIONS PLAN
Client communications are typically directed to/from the project manager as the primary point of contact. Examples include monthly progress reports with schedule updates and invoices, progress and review meetings with client staff and more informal phone calls and emails as appropriate. After discussion between H&A and the client, it may be decided that some senior technical staff from each party can communicate directly with these contacts documented by follow-up emails copied to the H&A project manager. We are strong believers in the saying “If it is not written down – it did not happen” so our project communications are well documented and easily accessible for future reference by H&A and the City.
