HARbO R bL Vd. & G ISLER AVENUE INTERSECTION wIdE NING PROjE CT, CoSTa mE Sa Justin was the Project Manager on the Harbor Blvd. & Gisler Avenue Intersection Widening project in the City of Costa Mesa.
Due to the close proximity of the intersection to the I-405 Harbor on-ramp, there were extremely high turn movements both eastbound on Gisler Avenue turning left onto Harbor Boulevard as well as southbound on Harbor. As a result, this created heavy congestion during peak traffic hours. In order to alleviate the congestion, phase I of the project included only eastbound improvements; converting the eastbound optional through-right lane to an optional through-left lane, and adding an eastbound right-turn lane. Phase II entailed a conceptual feasibility study and right-of-way acquisition requirements for both north and southbound improvements, including the addition of a southbound right-turn lane, and the extension of the northbound optional through-right lane. The scope of work also included installing an overhead freeway sign, which required working with SoCal Gas to relocate a gas line in conflict with footings for the overhead sign. A detailed field analysis, specifications, and plans were provided, including measurements and exhibits, in conformance with MUTCD, Caltrans, and City standards. Additionally, coordination with SAF-r-DIG and utility companies was essential to perform potholing and identify utility obstructions.
RESIdE NTIAL STREETS PAVEMENT REHA bI LITATION PROjE CT FOR AREAS 1, 2, & 4, downEy Justin is providing the City of Downey with Project Management services for the Residential Streets Pavement Rehabilitation Project for Areas 1, 2, and 4. The main objective is to improve the PCI of the area residential street segments in order to extend the street service life, improve safety, minimize costs and maintenance needs, and enhance aesthetics.
In order to accurately develop a scope of work and fees for the design services, OE conducted a detailed field evaluation, a thorough review of the City’s Pavement Management Plan, and approximated the costs for the construction activities to develop a final list of residential street segments. OE was then able to determine the quantity of streets that could be incorporated into the engineering design, which rehabilitation method to use and which method could be feasibly rehabilitated while adhering to the City’s available budget, along with providing recommendations and estimates. Upon approval by the City, the team then began to prepare separate PS&E packages for areas 1, 2 and 4. The work across the three zones covered nearly 29 miles of residential streets. On a number of segments OE is using straight grade between tie-in points at adjacent segments to maximized drainage slopes. A total of 164 Curb Ramps are being reconstructed to meet ADA compliance along with 85 total driveways, in addition to street widening and single-sided street parking construction.
Collaboration with Caltrans, LA City Flood Control District and Union Pacific Rail Road was also performed in order to acquire permit acquisitions on the segments. The work was completed on time within the assigned schedule and within the set budget.

MORNING CANYON ROAd RECONSTRUCTION PROjE CT, dI amond Ba r Jonathan was a Project Manager on this project for the City of Diamond Bar. Morning Canyon Road is a two-lane residential road beginning at Diamond Bar Boulevard and ending with a cul-de-sac nearly 4,000 feet to the northwest. The initial scope of work entailed removing 16 large pine trees that were causing extensive root intrusion into the roadway section; PCC work included 1,637 SF of sidewalk, 120 LF of curb and gutter, new ADA access ramps, striping/pavement markings, and the reconstruction of a Los Angeles County Public Works (LACPW) maintained catch basin located at the Southwest corner of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Morning Canyon Road. However, after a community meeting to inform the public about the project, the residents requested the staff explore an alternative approach to preserve the mature existing trees. After exploring some new options, the new scope of work entailed realigning the curb and moving it 8 feet closer to the roadway centerline, resulting in the elimination of the existing parking lane, and preserving the existing trees. Furthermore, the innovative design included relocating the sidewalk to the new back of curb alignment, resulting in a wider parkway area being backfilled with Class A Top Soil and topped with 2 inches of mulch. Three new LACPW catch basins were required to be constructed, one at the beginning of the curb re-alignment, across from Stonepine Drive, the other on the south side of Presado Drive and the third at the end of the curb return alignment before Diamond Bar Boulevard. The fourth catch basin located at Canyon Park Drive and Morning Canyon Road was abandoned to preserve a tree across from Canyon Park Drive.

INTERSECTION wIdE NING & ROAd wA Y IMPROVEMENTS, anahE I m Ludy provided Construction Management services to the City of Anaheim on the Ball Road and Sunkist Street Intersection Widening & Roadway Improvements Project. Ball Road and Sunkist Street are designated as Primary and Secondary arterials, respectively, on the County’s Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH). Ball Road was striped for 1 dual left and 3 through lanes in the eastbound direction and 2 left, 2 through and 1 right – turn lane in the westbound direction of travel.
Sunkist Street was striped for a single left and 2 through lanes per direction of travel. 4 public schools are located on or adjacent to Sunkist Street within the 1 mile stretch between Ball Road and South Street. The Design Phase consisted of the preparation of the contract plans, specifications and estimates for the improvement of the project. The Construction Phase consisted of excavation, clearing and grubbing, placement of new AC pavement, construction of concrete curb and gutter, driveways and access ramps, construction of concrete sidewalks, storm drain modifications, relocation of existing facilities, construction of a concrete bus pad, traffic signal modifications, striping, and CMU wall relocation and landscaping.
Proposed landscaping along the project roadways included drought-tolerant and low-maintenance plantings and trees. The Right-of-way Phase consisted of the acquisition of 9 partial takes totaling approximately 3,661 square feet and 11 Temporary Construction Easements totaling approximately 2,661 square feet of right-of-way. The length of these improvements was 0.44 centerline miles. Traffic to the schools, as well as traffic to and from the adjacent SR-57 freeway, resulted in a southbound left turn demand in the AM peak period that neared 500 vehicles. The intersection operated at service level “C” during the PM peak hours. The project corrected operational deficiencies at this intersection by widening Sunkist Street by 5 ft. along each of the east and west curbs, north and south of the intersection. This provided a dual southbound left -turn lane on Sunkist Street. In addition, the project widened Ball Road at the Sunkist Street intersection, providing an exclusive westbound right turn lane while converting the lane to a third westbound through lane. The proposed 3rd west bound thru lane mitigated vehicular queuing that consistently backed up to SR-57 southbound off-ramp during PM peak hours. With these improvements in place, the intersection service level improved from “D” (0.81) to “B” (0.64) during the PM peak hour.
PHASE 3 LOCAL STREETS REHAbI LITATION (zO NE 24, 27, & 32), norwalk Ludy provided Construction Management and inspection services to the City of Norwalk on the 3rd Stage of Construction of the Local Streets Rehabilitation Paving Improvements.

No. 7925-Zone 25, and No. 7926-Zone 32). Stage 1 of this project included concrete improvements, and Ludy was assigned as the construction manager for Zone 32 of that phase. Stage 3 included a variety of pavement rehabilitation methods including full-depth repair, grind and overlay, and slurry seal for Zones 24, 27, and 32. Twenty-one streets with a total of 3.6 centerline miles were included as part of this project. These limits were within the two blocks of Highdale Street between Elaine Avenue and Ibex Avenue which had a PCI rated less than 25 (very poor). The streets were also adjacent to Edmondson Elementary School, requiring careful coordination with the school. The replacement of the deteriorated pavement and accessibility ramps was important to improving the safety of the school zone and extending the useful life of the streets.
The rehabilitation work involved street repaving which included curb and gutter repairs, slotted cross gutter replacements and pedestrian accessibility ramps at intersection corners to meet current standards.

The first project is along Spring Street at Bellflower Boulevard and the other is along Spring Street at Lakewood Boulevard.
The goal of the project was to implement congestion management and reduction strategies at these intersections to improve capacity and movement for future volumes. The project included design work for raised medians, traffic signal modifications, turn pocket extensions, utility relocation and utility adjustments. The existing conditions at the intersection of Spring Street and Bellflower Boulevard included a single left turn lane in each direction, three through lanes in each direction, and dedicated right turn pockets for all intersection legs except for the west leg. The intent at this intersection was to extend the left turn pockets for the north, east and south legs. The project also extended the southbound right turn pocket. The existing conditions at the intersection of Spring Street and Lakewood Boulevard include Dual left turn pockets in all directions, three through lanes in all directions and dual right turn lanes from southbound Lakewood Boulevard to westbound Spring Street. The future capacity required an increase in pocket lengths for the left turn pockets in each direction on Spring Street along with an increased length of the dual right turn pockets on southbound Lakewood Boulevard.
RESIdE NTIAL STREETS PAVEMENT REHA bI LITATION FOR AREAS 1, 2, & 4, downEy Ryan was the Project Engineer for the City of Downey. The main objective is to improve the PCI of the area residential street segments in order to extend the street service life, improve safety, minimize costs and maintenance needs, and enhance aesthetics. In order to accurately develop a scope of work and fees for the design services, OE conducted a detailed field evaluation, a thorough review of the City’s Pavement Management Plan, and approximated the costs for the construction activities to develop a final list of residential street segments. OE was then able to determine the quantity of streets that could be incorporated into the engineering design, which rehabilitation method to use and which method could be feasibly rehabilitated while adhering to the City’s available budget, along with providing recommendations and estimates. Upon approval by the City, the team then began to prepare separate PS&E packages for areas 1, 2 and 4. The work across the three zones covered nearly 29 miles of residential streets. On a number of segments OE is using straight grade between tie-in points at adjacent segments to maximized drainage slopes. A total of 164 Curb Ramps are being reconstructed to meet ADA compliance along with 85 total driveways, in addition to street widening and single-sided street parking construction.
Collaboration with Caltrans, LA City Flood Control District and Union Pacific Rail Road was also performed in order to acquire permit acquisitions.

This project entailed replacing a total of 71 curb ramps along Kraemer Blvd., McCormack Lane, and Yorba Linda Blvd. Additionally, the work included sidewalk/driveway improvements along Kraemer Blvd. within the curb ramp replacement limits. The project called for conducting field verification of each location and identified the necessary ADA compliance upgrades. The locations where there was critical geometry or grades were checked to identify the final removal and replacement limits. The project was designed to include all required CDBG Section 3 verbiage in the project specifications, and that the project scope/bid schedules were set up in such a way that maximized the City’s budget. This included setting up alternate bid schedules in the bid package to ensure that budgetary overrun did not occur and to ensure that the City spend the allocated amount.
GREENSTONE PAVEMENT RECONSTRUCTION PROjE CT, Sa n Ta f E SprIn gS Ryan was the Project Engineer for the City of Santa Fe Springs on the Greenstone Pavement Reconstruction Project. The project limits were Lakeland Avenue to Sunshine Ave and Sunshine Avenue from Greenstone to Shoemaker Avenue. The surrounding business included heavy commercial and industrial with mostly large truck traffic. The existing roadway was severely distressed asphalt that had alligator cracking throughout the roadway. Working with the city we came up with an alternative approach to give this roadway extended life. The method of reconstruction we used was Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC). Since we knew that we didn’t want to impact the businesses, then this method drastically reduces the cure time of traditional concrete down to hours instead of days. It uses a machine similar to an asphalt paving machine in order to place a low slump concrete that is then compacted with a roller. This method lowers the downtime for residents and businesses and because it uses paving machines then it can be completed quickly and at a much lower cost per square foot. The scope of work included 317,500 square feet of pavement reconstruction, 1,270 lineal feet of curb reconstruction, 2,700 square feet of sidewalk reconstruction, 1,510 square feet of cross gutter reconstruction, 6,800 square feet of driveway reconstruction and 26 manhole adjustments along with various other items of work.

OE’s team utilizes AutoCAD Civil 3D on 3D surfaces for the designs in compliance with the Long Beach Standard Plan No. 122 in order to satisfy the maximum allowable slopes dictated in the most current version of Caltrans Standard Plan A88A, and has had to consider other accessibility standards due to occasional unavailability of a suitable ramp case and type. The project work entails the preparation of detailed individual curb ramp construction plans with the inclusion of horizontal geometrics, design elevations and dimensions, and utility appurtenance adjustments and relocations, along with concrete infrastructure such as curb, gutter, cross-gutters, and sidewalk. The necessary reconstruction is incorporated in order to accommodate the new curb ramps, meet accessibility requirements, and maintain drainage. Additional design elements have also required consideration, which involve constructing 32”x54” size flat landings next to each pedestrian push-button at signalized intersections and installing guardrails where retaining curbs adjoin walkable hard surfaces. Due to the large volume of ramps reconstructed each year, small batches of design details and construction of the ramps are being provided to the City at regular intervals through out a continuous process, with City submittals made on a monthly basis at a scaled frequency and quality.

Dear Mr. Lee:
Infrastructure Engineers (IE), a Bowman company, understands the need for help from time to time; hence the wisdom of developing a consultant on - call list of qualified engineering firms for the City of Lynwood to choose from. Providing as - needed services to municipalities is our forte, IE was founded on the premise of assisting cities when our services are needed.
Public works projects enhance the overall quality of life in cities by improving the physical structures, systems, and facilities that provide services to the community. Some projects can be large and expensive, and the assets they install, replace, or rehabilitate will likely be required to last for decades of public use. Therefore, you will want an engineering consultant that not only takes to heart the substantial financial investment involved, but also has the capabilities to undertake the varied anticipated projects and that knows the particular needs and expectations of the City of Lynwood.
It is a privilege to provide our qualifications for the Professional Civil Engineering Services On - Call Services for the City of Lynwood. At IE we do offer a full range of engineering services all under one umbrella, thus, we are submitting for all categories: General Engineering, Utility Engineering, Traffic Engineering and Architectural Services.

03 Approach to the Project
330
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 9 Approach to the Project
We understand that public agencies often have ongoing needs for engineering services that may exceed their staff’s availability, or the agency may prefer to engage firms that offer a broad spectrum of services, with the ability to take projects from the feasibility stage through 100% design, bid and award and on to completion. Rather than going through a separate selection process each time the need for such services arises, the on - call contract provides a quick solution to get those needed services completed.
IE has had the pleasure of working with the City of Lynwood in a similar capacity for more than a dozen years. As such, we understand the nature of the on - call process, one element of which is responding quickly when you need us. In addition, we understand your expectations and preferences by having worked alongside your staff and being involved in your organization. Ultimately, the city needs a firm that can engage and manage the members of its organization as extensions of the city staff. IE team members continue to gain the respect and confidence of the city staff and stand ready to carry on this important responsibility for the term of the contract.
Understanding the city’s budgeting format, procedures and practices is vital for any consultant. Our staff have worked directly with city staff, at the city’s offices, for several years. We have established relationships, and we know your organization and your expectations; thus, there will be no learning curve or coming up to speed – we are already here and fully committed.
APPROACH
This section provides our approach to the delivery of each individual service needed by the city and as outlined in the RFP . For all disciplines, each project is launched in a prescribed manner that provides the basis for constant and consistent communication with the city - to keep you informed during all phases.
For all disciplines, IE will serve as an extension of city staff. This includes working with city’s project representatives regularly and remaining in constant communication with the entire design and construction management team to ensure successful and timely delivery of every project.
• Meetings will be conducted for which agenda notices will be distributed at least two working days before each meeting. • Meeting minutes will be distributed within one week of the meeting, identifying action items assignments and due dates. • Bi - weekly Project Status Reports will be provided, identifying tasks completed and planned, issues to be resolved, project schedule update and project trends. These reports will serve as a primary tool in monitoring project progress and keeping the city’s staff informed.
• Progress review meetings will be held internally by IE on a regular basis to update the project team on project development and critical tasks.
• Prior to releasing any document to the city or other agencies, an extensive review will be performed by both the Project Manager and QA / QC Team.
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
IE’s approach to all projects follows a proven path of work elements and tasks that ensure a successful project. Working directly with the city’s Project Manager, IE’s Program Director, Mr. Farzad Dorrani and IE’s management team will formulate a resource allocation plan and a proposal for the city’s review and approval. Upon approval of the work plan, IE’s design / construction team will commence work immediately to meet the delivery of each task. For any of the design projects, Aidan Mousavi will be the lead. Once the project has been accepted by the city and it’s ready to move into the construction phase, Masoud Sepahi, the Director of Construction Management Services will take over by taking the project through bid / award process and the construction phase. This is our overall project implementation approach, which can be modified or rearranged to the satisfaction of the city. Upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed, IE will review the project objectives and 331
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 10 Approach to the Project (cont.)
requirements, schedule a kick - off meeting with the city staff and task leaders to discuss scope of work, project budget, and schedule. IE will prepare a work plan and assign team members to each task for maximum efficiency of resources and when project activities need to be handled simultaneously. Once team assignments are complete, a team coordination meeting will be held to identify key components of the project. As a part of this process, the project will be reviewed to ensure that all project elements meet the requirements of the funding source. In addition, all current design standards impacting the project, including federal and state ADA requirements, will be identified to be included in the project. IE’s team members will also be encouraged to think outside the box to identify the challenges of the project and develop and implement innovative design strategies to create cost efficiencies. All of IE’s projects are designed to ensure that project impacts to the public are minimized. IE is committed to providing the City of Lynwood with the highest level of quality and we will continuously work with the city to update the proposed work plan to fit within the city’s schedule and all other requirements. The following flow - chart summarizes our approach for delivery of each CIP project, being assigned to the IE team of Designers and Construction Managers.
332
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 11 Approach to the Project (cont.)
ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES
IE will provide full engineering design services in support of public works projects. Our team of engineers will take the following approach for every project that we design for our clients:
• For a typical CIP project, the process consists of conducting a project kick - off meeting with city personnel to learn and document the precise scope of the project, background, budget and schedule. This will allow our team to formulate and prepare a work plan including all the resources that are needed for a successful delivery of the project. During this meeting, the IE team will discuss specific design criteria along with preferred project strategies, cost limitations and, most importantly, potential issues, challenges and opportunities associated with each project that IE manages. Upon learning more on the project scope and timelines, IE will develop a master schedule and budget for all phases of the project being assigned including clear identification of milestones for all facets of work. • As part of IE’s internal project procedures, all project staff participate in a monthly project status meeting with key staff.
This meeting serves as an additional quality control check to ensure that all aspects of the project move forward seamlessly ahead of schedule, and to ensure that resources are allocated as needed. • Useful records pertaining to the proposed work may exist, such as existing improvement plans, maps, as - built drawings, utility plans, reports, studies, and other pertinent information within the projects’ limits. Additionally, there may be proposed improvements that will affect the design of the project. The design team will review these existing records and incorporate them into the design of the project, as appropriate. The city, county and utility companies will be contacted, and all information gathered regarding, existing utilities, easements, obstructions, etc. will be used as a part of the base map.
• Throughout the entire design phase, IE’s project manager will maintain communication with the city, by preparing a monthly status report, in addition to conducting a meeting, with city staff. IE will prepare and submit Plans, Specifications and Cost Estimates (PS&E) to the city at different intervals; 35%, 65%, 95% and 100% levels of completion. Although monthly reports will be provided, IE will proactively keep the city’s Project Manager informed of any new developments, issues or factors involved in the project and offer alternatives to solve any unforeseen conditions discovered during the design phase.
• For every meeting that IE conducts, staff will prepare agendas of special items that warrant discussion at the meetings and prepares and distributes minutes with action items to all involved parties. • On projects, where either land surveying, or boundary surveying is required, IE will arrange for conducting a full survey. Mr.
Dennis Janda, PLS of Dennis Janda, Inc., brings a wealth of geodesic and spatial surveying experience and will complement our team by assisting with all right - of - way and surveying services needed for the projects. • IE team will perform a site investigation to evaluate the existing condition of items pertaining to the design. During this investigation, locations of damaged or distressed features will be inspected. As part of this investigation, IE will also inspect the project site for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility non - compliant features will be identified and noted. Existing drainage patterns will also be investigated and reviewed to determine any adverse slopes that may exist for every street improvement projects to eliminate any potential ponding issues. • IE will also conduct fieldwork to verify the locations of surface utility features within the project limits. During the field investigation, we will validate the locations of other special features and items such as traffic signal loops, overhead cables, potential encroachments, such as fences, walls, etc. In conjunction with all the information researched, IE will notify affected utility companies of the impending project and we will arrange for meetings to coordinate any necessary relocations that may be necessary. Surface features requiring adjustment will be identified and properly coordinated with the corresponding utility company.
333
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 12 Approach to the Project (cont.)
• If the proposed improvements interfere with existing utilities, we will arrange to have potholes taken by the utility companies. If the utility company has prior rights, we will negotiate with a contractor to pothole the utilities to obtain elevations and pinpoint the locations of the utilities. We will provide the city with copies of all correspondence with the utility companies compiled in a book report at the submittal of 95% plan completion, to ensure due diligence and follow - through with the utility companies.
• IE will review all available existing analysis reports. Based on review of these reports, we will recommend to the city if additional, supplemental or completely new reports or analysis will be needed. Our subconsultant for geotechnical Engineering is Associated Soils Engineering, Inc. (ASE). They will provide all the necessary geotechnical investigations including, pavement testing and subsurface analyses, by taking samples and laboratory testing. In addition, ASE will assist the team with taking core samples of the pavement to determine the thickness and the condition of the Asphalt Concrete (A / C) pavement for use in our design of the roadway rehabilitation projects. • A base map will be prepared and used for the preparation of construction drawings. This will show existing features necessary to depict the intended work within the project. As - built plans, field measurements and field survey work will be used for the compilation. The field survey work will be limited to those items and areas necessary for the proposed design.
This includes obtaining adequate topography and cross sections in areas of street widening or water or sewer line projects.
This approach is anticipated to present cost savings to the city while maintaining the intent and quality of the design work. • IE will prepare all plans to the city’s standards, utilizing base mapping based upon the agreed concepts presented to the city for all types of improvements. IE will utilize the codes, standards, regulations, which have been adopted by the city, in addition to the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction, which is the standard norm, used by major municipalities. IE continues to update and incorporate new technologies used in our design and construction practices. IE staff are active members of the ASCE, APWA and other organizations, which always strive to introduce and promote new methods and standards for public works projects throughout the country. • IE will prepare a comprehensive set of technical specifications in addition to a complete list of bid items required to thoroughly cover items described in the project plans and bidding instructions. IE will review and incorporate on every contract, the general conditions and special provisions in the bid package, to address, labor compliance, Federal Grant Funding provisions and any other special requirement that the city might have.
In some cases , IE will include Additive Alternatives for items on the bids, that the city may want to include, either as additional work items, or pricing for inclusion of certain items that the city may want to add to the scope of the project.
IE will prepare construction cost estimates for verification of project budget and assistance during the contractors bidding process. Measurement of units will be contained in the specifications with additional details for lump sum items, as necessary.
Unit prices will be derived from current bid information on similar work within the project area. • IE will prepare PS&E submittal package for city’s review at certain milestones, depending on the scope of work for each project. The PS&E deliverables are scheduled for delivery at 35%, 65%, 95% and 100% packages. A final set of signed Mylar plans, along with specifications and estimates, will be submitted to the city for bidding purposes. • Upon completion of PS&E, IE will coordinate with the City Clerk Office’s to present the final design to City Council for approval. All council meeting agendas and staff reports will be coordinated through the city’s Project Manager. • In addition to the initial Project Definition and Program Development Meetings, continuous coordination and updates will be required between the design team, the city’s Project Manager and other stakeholders, including utility agencies, permitting agencies, and any other funding source coordinators. Progress reports will be provided at appropriate intervals and, as necessary, to document project status.
• IE will prepare as - built plans based on the red mark - up plans provided by the contractor at the end of construction and submits them to the city for their retention and filing. 334

Traffic Warrant Studies
Our team of registered traffic engineer can be on hand to perform warrant studies in conformance with all federal, state, and local regulations, CA - MUTCD requirements and per city standards, ordinances and regulations for traffic signal or stop sign installations. They conduct a comprehensive field investigation and collect all field data required for each type of warrant. This data typically includes collision history from Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) of California Highway Patrol and Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) of University of California at Berkeley. Additionally, 24 - hour average daily traffic (ADT) volumes, peak - period turn movement counts of vehicular, pedestrian and bicyclist traffic and vehicular traffic speed data can also be collected.
After a thorough review, our team will determine if the relevant warrants satisfy signal or stop sign controls. After analyzing all relevant data, the warrant study will be prepared. All associated reports, documents, plans and maps will include the registered engineer’s stamp and wet signature to certify the accuracy and adequacy of the study. Upon completion, our traffic engineer will present the studies to the appropriate department, commission, or council meeting. Following the presentation of our findings, our traffic engineer will proceed to prepare design plans, cost estimates and specifications for any improvements upon direction from city’s Traffic Engineer.
Intersection Design Plans, Including Traffic Signal Plan When creating intersection design plans and traffic signal plans, our registered traffic engineers will collect all relevant traffic control needs and roadway safety information required for specific intersections prior to the preparation of traffic signal, street improvement and traffic control and detour plans. The CA - MUTCD and other Caltrans Standard Plans and Standard Specifications will be adhered to, and the final plans will have our registered engineer’s stamp and wet signature to certify the accuracy and adequacy.
Staff Reports for City Council or Planning Commission Meetings Our team of engineers prepare traffic - related staff reports for presentation at Planning Commission and City Council meetings as directed by client Cities. The reports contain data and information gathered from staff records and collected by our personnel. The reports are submitted to the Cities two weeks prior to any meetings, offering ample time for the Planning Commission and City Council members to thoroughly review the information in advance of the meetings. Our team is available to answer any questions posed by the city regarding these reports and attend the meetings to address any public comments.

Our registered Traffic Engineer has prepared numerous traffic control and detour plans for construction projects while prioritizing traffic and pedestrian convenience and safety. The Traffic Engineer assigned to these tasks for the city will promptly collect all relevant traffic control needs and roadway safety information upon a request from the city and prepare the appropriate plans for application to the specific projects. The CA - MUTCD and Caltrans Standard Plans and Standard Specifications will be used in preparing these plans. The plans will have the registered engineer’s stamp and wet signature certifying accuracy and adequacy.
UTILITY ENGINEERING
It is our understanding that the City of Lynwood is soliciting proposals from municipal engineering consultants to provide engineering design services for water, sewer, and possibly storm drain utility projects on an as - needed basis. Many of the anticipated projects are from the city’s CIP while other projects outside this program have also been identified. IE specializes in providing engineering and construction management services on on - call contracts. We know how to mobilize quickly to provide a full spectrum of services required. We understand and will provide all services for the city’s water, wastewater, and stormwater projects, including environmental reporting and compliance, traffic and detour engineering, surveying, mapping, legal descriptions, staking, geotechnical, and structural services. The City of Lynwood is committed to providing exemplary utility services to the community and, therefore, the consultant selected must have the necessary experience and qualification to be considered.
IE will serve as an extension to the city staff. This includes meeting with city project representatives regularly and remaining in constant communication with them to ensure successful and timely delivery of the project. Bi - Weekly Project Status Reports will be issued by IE. Meetings, as necessary, will be conducted for which agenda notices will be distributed at least two working days before each meeting. Meeting minutes will be distributed within one week of the meeting identifying action items assignment and due dates. The Bi - Weekly Project Status Reports will identify tasks completed and planned, issues to be resolved, project schedule update, and project trends. These reports will serve as a primary tool in monitoring project progress and keeping the city’s staff informed.
IE also intends to meet and / or communicate with city staff, city administration and Council, utility companies, Caltrans, and / or other agencies (as necessary) to coordinate the project design. For each meeting an agenda and notes will be prepared by IE to summarize issues discussed and for distribution to city and others at each meeting.
Approach
IE’s approach to project management and production is based on a strong commitment to total quality assurance. The design approach follows a proven path of work elements and tasks ensuring a successful project. Working directly with the city’s Project Manager, our Senior Engineer, Christopher Ley, will lead the Utility Design team through the entire design production.
Upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed, Christopher will review the requirements, prepare a work plan and make team assignments for maximum efficiency of resources. Christopher will assume the role of coordinator and will develop a project management plan for the project for IE’s staff and for our survey subconsultant. The project management plan will include the development of a comprehensive management and control system, which will ensure the project is completed on time and within budget. To ensure accurate monitoring and tracking of plans, revisions and progress, a document tracking and control system will be established. The steps to project development and completion will follow the steps outlined here. 338
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 17 Approach to the Project (cont.)
Task 1: Project Meetings
IE will schedule a kickoff meeting with city staff to initiate the project. At that meeting, coordination and scheduling between IE and the city will be discussed and the methods of communication decided upon. The city’s goals and objectives will be reviewed. IE will review information provided by the city prior to the meeting and will discuss any questions or clarifications needed. A project time schedule will be reviewed with the city and incorporated into a final time schedule to be prepared by IE. Subsequent monthly progress / submittal meeting dates will be agreed upon. IE will be responsible for preparing the agendas and minutes of each meeting. At the subsequent meetings, IE will report on project progress, both in writing and orally. Forthcoming activities and anticipated deliverables will be discussed at these meetings, as well as the city’s comments on documents previously submitted by IE.
Task 2: Research
The IE team will conduct research of available information, maps, data on the existing sewer system, and of any previous hydraulic analysis and modeling, including the most recent Master Plan for the project area. In addition, other factors will be reviewed and addressed including, but not limited to a review of tentative construction phasing provided by the city to evaluate and provide any recommendations on the most efficient and cost - effective contracting strategy, especially in areas that have a high potential for conflicts (e.g., near high traffic areas); traffic control, particularly on main arterial streets and where access will be an issue; and research on possible conflicts with existing utilities and other services (e.g., trash pickup).
Task 3: Modeling
As needed, IE will provide modeling based on assembled information on the existing system. Results of the modeling and recommendations by IE for project solutions will then be submitted to the city for review and approval. IE will be using Hydra for all sewer system and storm drain modeling work and production of data tabulations.
Task 4: Surveying
Upon receipt of the city’s Notice to Proceed, the IE surveyor will begin field survey work for all open - cut remove - and - replace segments. All possible alignments will be surveyed and base maps will be prepared and submitted in AutoCAD format. Surveying will include dipping all utilities manholes and will also take into account curbs and gutters, sidewalks, rights - of - way, water, street lights / pull boxes, retaining walls, structures, and catch basins. All local physical culture features will be surveyed for preparation and design of the plans that will be needed for construction of the new or replacement water, storm drain, or sewer lines in the existing paved streets.
Task 5: Geotechnical
Upon receipt of the Notice to Proceed, the geotechnical investigation work will begin with soil borings on all open - cut remove - and - replace segments to determine thickness and condition of street pavements and the sub - base soil conditions.
Borings will be drilled to a minimum of three ft deeper than the lowest required invert. A report on the investigation findings will be prepared and submitted to the city for review at the 30% - level of submittal. The report will contain recommendations for construction of the water, storm drain, or sewer lines by open - shored trenching and, where appropriate, trench - less construction and replacement of the street section to meet city standards. The report will also include recommendations on pipe bedding for the pipe to be used.
Task 6: Utility and Other Agency Coordination (Caltrans, etc.) Upon initiation of the surveying and geotechnical work, IE will begin the utility coordination process of notifying the known utilities and other substructure owners of the project and requesting plans for their facilities. Once alignments of water, storm drain, or sewer lines have been verified, the utilities / substructures will be plotted to determine if any conflicts exist within the preliminary route and alignment. With the alignment plans showing any potential utility / substructure, the preliminary plans will be submitted to the city as plans at the 60% - level of completion. Should there be any utility / substructure conflicts that cannot be resolved by design efforts, meeting(s) and discussions will be held with the utility / substructure owners to obtain resolution of the conflict.
339

Task 7: Environmental
The IE environmental specialist, B / BEP , will review and assess the proposed project by use of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA), and city environmental guidelines to identify any specific items of environmental concern. B / BEP will discuss the environmental assessment with city project staff and city personnel responsible for environmental matters and policies. Based on the city’s review and determination, the appropriate document will be drafted and submitted at the 30% - level of submittal. Note: should the city - required document be at the level of an Environmental Impact Report, IE will require a fee adjustment to prepare the EIR and to process and circulate the EIR. For lower levels of documents, B / BEP will prepare the necessary document for the proposed fee and, after circulation, will have it certified and adopted by the city.
Task 8: Potholing (if needed)
IE uses C - Below to perform any potholing services on a time - and - material cost basis once the need for identification data is determined. IE would prepare a plan for potholing work and obtain city approval to proceed. C - Below would obtain all needed street excavation permits and prepare and submit Traffic Control Plans to the city, as needed. C - Below is a highly experienced utility contractor that operates throughout the southland.
Task 9: Preliminary Design – 60% PS&E
At this point in the design process, IE will submit a 60% package of documents for the city’s review. The following is a list of the documents to be included.
• Survey base maps
• Geotechnical report
• Modeling report
• Utility coordination report
• Traffic control plans
• Temporary and Permanent Signing and Striping Plans
• Preliminary plans, specifications, and estimated cost of construction (PS&E) • Preliminary construction staging plan
The specifications will be prepared by use of city standards and boilerplate for construction of water or sewer pipe along the recommended alignment (previously reviewed by the city). The traffic control plans will be prepared by IE unless otherwise directed by the city.
IE will apply for and obtain any needed permits from other agencies such as Caltrans, Los Angeles County, Sanitation Districts of the Los Angeles County, Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board, and other agencies, as needed.
If utility relocations are needed, a time allotment will be added to the construction schedule at this submission.
Task 10: Design - 100% PS&E
Upon receipt of the city’s review comments on the 60% PS&E and other related documents, IE will proceed to incorporate any needed changes and bring the PS&E package up to a level of 90% completion for submittal to the city.
Task 11: Design - Final 100% PS&E
Upon incorporation of city review comments on the 100% - level PS&E, the PS&E will be finalized and originals in either vellum or Mylar will be signed by the IE Project Manager. The final environmental document will be certified. 340

Task 12: Assistance During Bidding
IE will provide bidding assistance to the city including preparing city use responses to any Requests for Information (RFIs) from prospective bidders. As needed and directed by the city, IE will prepare addenda of project changes and notices to bidders for issuance by the city. Upon receipt of bids, IE will review the bids and can perform bid analysis or normal assistance services such as checking of references for the city.
Task 13: Construction Assistance / Observations (Optional) As requested by the city, IE can review contractor’s material submittals, traffic control plans, etc. IE can also make periodic field observations of construction progress and provide reports to the city.
Enhancements or Innovations
There are a number of new and innovative design procedures that we could consider for various utilities improvement projects in the city. The following presents a brief list of some considerations. • 3 - dimensional (3 - D) surveying and laser scanning of existing surface structures to provide a comprehensive design considering all possible conflicts with existing surface improvements. • Underground locating, detection, and mapping to verify existing underground utilities locations, depth, and alignments. • Design of the proposed utilities in 3 - D so any possible conflict with the existing utilities or other proposed utilities will be avoided during the design phase and prior to construction. • Utilizing the newest construction methods for utilities to minimize impacts on surface improvements, traffic, businesses, and residents, such as pipe jacking, auger boring, and micro tunneling for trenchless installation of utilities. • Utilizing the latest methods for trenchless sewer repairs to minimize construction cost and duration, such as sliplining, pipelining, pipebursting and cured - in - place pipe.
Project Controls
Upon selection for an On - Call Utility Engineering contract and award of a project, the Project Manager establishes the budget for the project and hours needed for each staff member to complete the assigned tasks. Every week it is the Project Manager’s responsibility to review staff hours in correlation to percent of completion of each task and assignment. Every month, attached to the billing, the city will receive a report outlining staff hours and percent of completion and these relationships to the authorized budget. The IE Project Manager monitors accomplishments and budgets. Schedule and budget are two very critical responsibilities of the Project Manager. At 30% completion, a cost estimate of construction will be provided to the city to ensure that the project cost is in line with the budget assumed for that project. Also, at 60% and 100% cost estimates will ensure the city has adequate funds to bidding the construction plan.
On the third Tuesday of every month, all Project Managers must report their project budgets and schedules to the IE Director of Operations. It is the Director’s responsibility to facilitate operation needs of the Project Managers.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control
Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA / QC) are top priority for IE. Our QA / QC practice involves a comprehensive process to ensure delivery of quality product and services to your satisfaction. The Program Manager, together with a designated QA / QC team, provides the leadership and guidance to obtain the comprehensive and complete design documents of the city’s expected quality, meeting all industry standards. These documents will result in minimal claims and RFIs during construction phase. Key elements of our quality control are the assignment of skilled and experienced personnel, effective communications, and monitoring. The quality control process includes the following:
• Assignment of skilled professionals instituting a comprehensive and interactive orientation on the project goals, and the means of achieving these goals.
341
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 20 Approach to the Project (cont.)
• Daily contact by the Project Manager with each on - going activity to provide support and guidance, to maintain focus and momentum, and to monitor the quality of work.
• Maintaining regularly scheduled project staff meetings for reviewing work status, reviewing technical elements of the project, coordinating and interfacing of activities, reviewing budget parameters, and discussing upcoming activities and responsibilities.
• Internal (peer review) audits of municipal services for quality, accuracy, and completeness. • Strictly and rigorously following IE - developed QA / QC standards and guidelines. • Review by the Program Manager prior to submittal to assure services meet all standards and codes, project goals and objectives, and contract requirements.
• Design QA / QC will be carried out by our highly experienced and licensed professional civil engineers. • The constructability review during the design phase will be carried out by our highly experienced construction managers and inspectors.
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND SUPPORT SERVICES
Pre Construction Phase Services
IE’s team has the advantage of having all services under one umbrella. Our construction managers work with our civil design group throughout the entire design development process and have multiple opportunities to conduct in - house constructability reviews. This approach has allowed our team to prepare and deliver quality design and successful projects, with least amount of change orders encountered during construction. The following are some of the key issues that our construction management team will ensure to preview, prior to the completion of final design on every project that we manage.
Project Scope and Understanding:
We have studied the city’s 5 - year CIP program and budgets. We are glad to inform the city that IE has all the necessary expertise and experience in each of the 7 categories of projects listed in the CIP program. Our construction management and inspection staff have the right experience in each one of the categories, listed on the city’s CIP list. The following table shows our collective experience with the City of Lynwood and other municipalities, where we have delivered similar services as listed on the City of Lynwood’s CIP program.
342
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 21 Approach to the Project (cont.)
CM and Inspection Mobilization
For every category of the project that IE has been assigned to, will arrange a kick - off meeting with the city staff, the designers, and key stakeholders to learn more about the project background and any pertinent information that the CM team should know about. In our experience, coordination with various city staff and departments in addition to the outside influencers is key to a successful start. Following the city’s directions, we will establish the main contact matrix, with roles and responsibilities and chain of command for each phase of the project. As a standard practice, IE team including the construction manager, inspectors and all the subconsultants will conduct a full review of the plans, specifications, and other contract and construction - related documents.
ADA Compliance
Some of the other reviews by the IE team during the pre - construction phase will include evaluation of the project scope to see if the city will desire to update and repair such items as ADA curb ramps, ADA facility compliance, curb / gutter and sidewalk evaluation and repairs. Other services can include energy audits, solar power, EV charging stations, and other types of specialty projects. Working on similar projects, we have found that inclusion of such items will benefit the city and it will cut down on long - term costs.

Cost Estimating
IE will review the plans and the specifications and the Engineer’s Estimates and the Bid Schedules to determine the cost based on the latest unit pricing and bids received on other recent projects. IE will compare these estimates against the city’s standing budget and schedule and will make recommendations for making adjustments on the costs and budgets if the city deems them necessary. IE team understands the challenges with the recent bidding environment and sees this step as a key element of the pre - construction phase services.
Market Conditions
One of the challenges currently facing projects is the cost escalation and availability of materials. The current market condition and price escalations have made it more challenging for Cities to establish appropriate budgets and timelines for delivery of various CIP projects. The bidding environment has been very dynamic over the last few years, due to many uncertainties over price escalations and availability of materials. This situation has improved slightly, but early determination of long - lead materials and equipment is needed for each project to ensure that the projects will not be impacted or delayed.
After understanding the city’s needs and priorities, IE will review and adjust durations for each activity and milestones to paint a true picture of the project delivery schedule, based on the current market conditions. If necessary, IE will prepare and recommend early material purchasing and delivery separately from the main contract to avoid potential delays during the construction. IE will also review the project delivery schedule and cost estimates to determine any issues, prior to contractors bidding on the project. We will make sure that our schedules are realistic and all the bid items on the bid schedules have been vetted and are complete and accurate.
Right - of - Way
It is critical to identify and resolve any right - of - way issues that may exist on any type of CIP projects. There are many ways to determine if there are ROW issues on a project, starting with a review of available as - built plans, County maps, GIS maps, title report search and conducting a boundary / property survey of the properties in question. IE team can work with the city during the pre - construction phase to identify and clarify any potential issues on the property boundaries and prepare the appropriate legal documents, such as easements, dedications, and lot line adjustments. As part of the IE team, our subconsultant, Epic Land Solutions, is also ready to assist in case property appraisals and acquisitions are needed.
Utility Conflicts
It is very important to identify and show all the existing utilities on the plans and bid documents. It is as important to include provisions in the contract documents for the contractor to conduct potholing of all the utilities within 5 - ft of the proposed work, after the utilities have been marked and in advance of the start of any excavation work. We will review the contract documents to ensure that there are safeguards to protect the city from claims when encountering unforeseen conditions during construction. We can introduce various types of allowances for items that the contractor may encounter during the construction for removal of unknown utilities and for special types of shoring that may be required.
Unforeseen Soil Conditions
Another provision necessary for all underground excavation is to identify the soil’s conditions and types during the design, so that appropriate shoring methods can be included in the bid documents. This will require an investigation of the site by the construction management team to review and evaluate the field conditions, by first looking at previous soil’s reports conducted near the project site, and then formulate a geotechnical investigation to address the site conditions. We have performed similar types of investigations for other Cities and found that this approach will avoid potential claims on unknown field conditions by the contractors.
We use an electronic project
management system that will allow
seamless transfer of information
between the project team, including
architects, engineers, construction
management team and contractor.

Bid and Award
We are happy to see that the city is utilizing Planetbids for managing the bidding and award process. This system has worked very well in the past on many other projects, ensuring that all questions, addenda, and project information are processed quickly and accurately. This system also reduces the chances of information not being delivered to potential bidders. After the project is uploaded on Planetbids, and once questions are received from the bidders, IE will determine the responsible parties for providing proper responses. In case design questions are received, the engineer of the record, or the architect will be informed to provide proper responses. Regarding questions and clarifications related to the budget and schedules and other administrative questions, the city will be contacted to get the proper responses. In each case, IE will make sure to secure a proper response to each question received and to prepare and upload the addendum quickly and completely.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES
Managing projects over the last 30 years, we have learned that each project is unique and requires a different approach, however, there are certain traits, which are common to most projects and should be considered and examined. The following is a general work plan based on our understanding of the city’s needs for managing each type of project listed in the RFP and on the city’s CIP list:
Our approach to management of construction will be to collaborate and coordinate all our activities with the city’s project manager and other stakeholders and at the same time introduce many of the lessons learned from our past projects and the experience that we have gained working on the City of Lynwood’s projects. Prior to start of any construction project and / or activity, IE will meet with the city to formulate a work plan and a resource allocation matrix for each individual project to build a robust team to administer and manage construction contracts, in accordance with the city’s needs and budget.
IE will also establish the individual needs of the project for other necessary services, such as field survey, geotechnical investigations, materials testing, SWPPP , NPDES Permitting and monitoring, environmental investigations and testing, deputy inspections and other specialty items as required. IE will arrange and organize the CM team encompassing specialty services, for materials testing, deputy inspections, prior to awarding a contract. The following is a general work plan based on our understanding of the city’s needs for managing each type of projects listed in the RFP and on the city’s CIP list:
• Filing Systems - IE will set up an electronic filing system (CMIS), to address all funding requirements by the Federal, State, County and OCTA for securing grants and outside fundings. IE will ensure to follow all grants funding requirements and will monitor contractor’s compliance with these requirements to ensure compliance with prevailing wage regulations and documentation.
• Submittals and Schedules - IE will review and process contractor’s submittals by first preparing a submittal - list for each Contract. All submittals and deliverables that are required by the contract will be logged through the IE’s electronic project management system and routed to the project’s architect and engineers for review and approval. IE will ensure that proper warranties are stipulated for certain items per the city’s needs to ensure that the maintenance and longevity of these systems are secured over the long haul.
• Pre - Construction Meeting - IE will arrange and conduct pre - Construction meetings with the Contractors, designers, inspectors and other key stakeholders. We will ensure to invite all city personnel that may be involved with the project, in addition to representatives from regulatory agencies that may be involved with permitting and grant funding. We will also request that subcontractors be present at the pre - construction meeting. We have found that it is important for the subcontractors to be also present to learn firsthand about the conditions on the project and the overall scope of work. IE will arrange for a weekly progress meeting, to review the project status, request for information (RFI) log, change orders, project issues, etc. The minutes for these meetings will be prepared within 24 hours of the meeting, to ensure that all parties are aware of the project issues and any action items that were identified during these meetings. 345
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 24 Approach to the Project (cont.)
• Inspection and Field Activities - Daily construction logs shall be provided for the city review on the IE’s web - based virtual project management software. The project inspector will review construction progress schedules on a regular basis to verify that the project is on schedule and on track with project milestones. If the project falls behind, IE will identify the project deficiencies and ask the contractor for recovery schedules to ensure that corrective actions are taken to bring projects back on schedule. We have vast experience with installing utility work and will monitor the contractor’s excavation work to prevent and minimize utility conflict delays and potential need for utility relocations. We will achieve this by conducting potholing, which will be required by the contract documents, and by a thorough review of the as - build drawings. We will coordinate field meetings with the utility agencies and will make sure that they are present during the excavation, near their utility lines. IE will prepare and submit to contractor a “Weekly Statement of Calendar / Working Days” report to ensure that the Contractor is fully aware of the schedule and the critical path activities, that may be in jeopardy.
• Health and Safety - We at IE take safety very seriously. We know that even one incident on the project will taint the project.
As a standard practice, at the beginning of each meeting, we draw attention to a safety moment. This is to ensure that all parties and the construction team make safety on the job a priority. We believe that safety must be built into the culture of the construction team, and it must be the underlying condition for conducting any type of construction work. IE will make sure that the latest CAL - OSHA provisions have been incorporated into the contract documents and we will monitor the job daily to ensure that all safety precautions have been placed at the job site every day. At the pre - construction meetings, IE will ask to see the Contractor’s Health and Safety plan and makes sure that a Safety Offices has been identified by the Contractor, in addition to the subcontractors.
• Quality Control and Materials Testing - To control the quality of work on any construction project, a few provisions must be built into the Contract Documents. In addition to the requirements by the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Green Book), which sets the minimum requirements for controlling the quality at the job site, IE will evaluate and determine individual needs of the projects for a robust QA / QC program. These provisions will need to be written into the contract documents, so that the contractors provide an adequate testing program, necessary for meeting the requirements of the project. As part of our monthly reporting, a section will be dedicated to the QA / QC program, summarizing the testing and a review of the contractor’s performance, on a regular basis. IE team will evaluate the contractor’s performance and will recommend changes as necessary. IE inspectors are provided with the latest technology for documenting and reporting daily activities and are dedicated and trained to make sure the construction work is being conducted in a safe and expeditious manner.
POST–CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
IE will start planning on project close - out weeks before the completion of the project. This is to ensure that the contractor is aware of the city’s expectations for compiling the work and to allow ample time for any type of commissioning, testing, and balancing that may be required. In addition, the project may need staff training, which requires advanced planning. The close - out activities will include final inspection / walk through with the city staff, maintenance / service personnel and the project’s architect / design consultant. IE will issue a preliminary punch - list to put the contractor on notice of any outstanding item, followed by a final punch list, including schedule for punch list completion. IE will monitor the repairs and follow through “Other inspection activities include
conducting field construction employee
interviews to comply with Equal Employment
Opportunity Law and Davis Bacon Act. ”
“Control of the quality at the job - site also
requires a true and dedicated inspection staff.
IE will provide daily inspection for projects
by introducing a qualified inspector, who has
many years of experience with public works
and CIP construction projects. “

with the contractor, until all items on the punch list are 100% complete. IE will gather and transmit all required guarantees, certifications, affidavits, leases, easement deeds, operating and maintenance manuals, warranties, and other documents as stipulated in contract documents for submittal to the city.
APPROACH TO MANAGING RESOURCES
Our approach to management of resources is first to work with the city to devise a staffing plan based on the city’s unique and precise needs, followed by keen and proactive management to deliver every project and task on time and on budget.
Our VP for Construction Management Services, Mr. Sepahi will first meet with the city to learn about the unique needs of the project, the priorities, budgets and schedules. He will then prepare a preliminary staffing plan and a cost proposal for providing CM and inspection services to present to the city’s project manager. As every project is different and requires a different approach, we will provide a unique plan to address the needs of the project within the city’s desired cost and budget. Our standard team makeup usually includes a part - time construction manager, a full - time inspector, complemented by an array of experts in all aspects of construction, only when they are needed. The city will benefit from IE’s flexibility to mobilize and de - mobilize project staff quickly, and efficiently. . We have included seasoned construction managers and inspectors to assist the city with any type of CM services that may be needed. Our Director of Construction Manager will oversee and monitor the construction activities, to ensure that the CM team has the resources and to guide the team, when outside help may be needed.
The IE team will be complemented by Associated Soils Engineering, Inc. (ASE) for geotechnical investigations and materials testing, in addition to Dennis Janda, Inc. (DJI), boundary and property surveying work, needed on establishing property lines, easements and dedications.

Architectural and Facilities Design
iArch’s approach to this type of project starts with a detailed site visit with the client and reviewing the proposed scope of work and improvements, ensuring a complete agreement by the client for the proposed improvements. Once iArch is done with the site visit, a scope of work is prepared, a detailed work plan and schedule are to be shared with the client for concurrence. The said work plan will include all the milestones and critical deadlines to ensure that the project will stay on schedule and within budget. Upon agreement between parties of the scope and approach and schedule, iArch will hold weekly project status report in house and we’ll prepare updates based on the progress of our work and submit to the city bi - weekly. Additionally, iArch will request to meet with this city’s project manager, at least once a month to share the progress of the work up - to - date and receive any additional instructions or modification that may maybe required by the city. Based on our recent experiences with other similar restroom upgrade facilities, the details of the proposed improvement need to be shared with the city on an ongoing basis to ensure that the final design plans for the renovation and remodeling of the restrooms reflect city’s desire and it accomplishes to stay within the budget and be compliant with the ADA requirements.

Planning and Development
Our Urban Planning and Development division allows us to assist our city clients with direction and planning for development and economic growth. We engage local communities to capture their needs and expectations, identify development opportunities that optimize the use of resources and meet the requirements of local codes. Planning services the IE team provides include the following:
• General Plans and Updates.
• Neighborhood Revitalization Plans.
• Current / Advance Planning.
• Corridor Studies.
• Cannabis Program Services.
• Master Planning.
• Environmental Compliance and Documentation.
• Economic Development Strategies.
• Specific Plans.
PROJECT TIMELINE AND BUDGET CONTROL
IE’s ability to maintain project control is validated by our track record of completing projects on schedule and within budget.
Our strategy for project management begins by determining ahead of time how long each leg of the project should take. To determine the time frame, IE staff begin by mapping out what needs to be done and then sequencing each milestone in the project. Our project managers then determine the maximum and minimum amount of time each event will take from start to finish using the Critical Path Method or mapping out the most important tasks in any project and using that to estimate the project completion date. This enables our team to carefully analyze which events depend on other events to allow for effective project management.
Our project managers use a set of internal control measures to control costs, provide accurate and timely invoices and to maintain the integrity of the promised schedule. These methods include approaching all projects by following these steps:
• Define the problem, then understand our clients’ expectations and preferences and project goals. • Measure key tasks of the current project and review the relevant information, such as long - lead items or tasks that involve subconsultants and their timing and costs.
• Analyze this ‘data’ to determine cause - and - effect on the project schedule and budget. • Make any necessary adjustments to address and improve the current process to meet the project goals. • Maintain control of the process to ensure that any possible deviations from the project’s goals are corrected before they result in cost or schedule creep.
350
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman company | Professional Civil Engineering On-Call Services | November 13, 2023 29 Approach to the Project (cont.)
We take full advantage of these proven techniques because they help us better serve our clients by providing increased productivity, improved quality, reduced operation costs, higher client satisfaction and improved communication among all team members.
SPECIAL IDEAS, TECHNIQUES OR SUGGESTIONS
IE firmly believes maintaining regular communications among key city staff, stakeholders, public representatives, if any, and project task leaders is key to timely and successfully completing a project. To that end, as a part of our tasks, we regularly schedule a weekly or biweekly teleconference to discuss issues and progress concerning a project among the parties involved. In all our recent engagements with City of Lynwood projects, we conducted such regular teleconferences in a consistent manner, and this has been proven to be a truly effective strategy for the success of these projects. For as - needed, on - call assignments, we suggest that regular weekly or biweekly teleconferences be held between our project manager, key task leaders and the city’s designated staff to discuss progress status and issues on any and all ongoing projects.
QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCESS
Quality assurance and quality control (QA / QC) are top priorities for IE. To ensure the highest quality of the design, IE will implement a comprehensive QA / QC program. Our QA / QC manager, Masoud Sepahi, has extensive experience in providing and overseeing the implementation of IE’s QA / QC program. He will review the design drawings, estimates, specifications, reports, and any other documents being delivered to the city for accuracy and completeness. Our Constructability Reviewer, Arjan Idnani, will assure constructability and compliance with the City of Lynwood’s and other agency requirements. In addition, Aidan will provide daily supervision and guidance to the design team. (Please see Quality Assurance / Quality Control section for more details).
Key elements of our quality control are the assignment of skilled personnel who are experienced in the specific disciplines, effective and constant communications, and monitoring of project progress. The quality control process includes the following principles:
• Assignment of skilled professionals instituting a comprehensive and interactive orientation of the project goals and the means of achieving these goals.
• Daily contact by the Project Manager with each on - going activity to provide support and guidance, to maintain focus and momentum, and to monitor the quality of work.
• Maintaining regularly scheduled project staff meetings for reviewing work status, reviewing technical elements of the project, coordinating and interfacing of activities, reviewing budget parameters, and discussing upcoming activities and responsibilities.
• Internal (peer review) audits of municipal services for quality, accuracy, and completeness. • Strictly and rigorously following IE - developed QA / QC standards and guidelines. • Review by the Project Manager prior to submittal to assure services meet all standards and codes, project goals and objectives, and contract requirements.
• Design QA / QC are carried out by our highly experienced and licensed professional civil engineers. • Constructability reviews during the design phase are carried out by our experienced construction managers and inspectors. 351

Ford Park Restroom Project
Bell Gardens, CA
Summary of Services Provided
Ford Park is used extensively by the local community kids and adults. There are multiple play fields that are used often for recreational activities for the residents of the city. However, there were no bathrooms for the use of the community and therefore, it created a problem for the users. Therefore, the city decided to incorporate a new restroom within the existing facility. iArch designed a prefab bathroom that found to be the best alternative for the situation. The reason for the selection of a prefabricated bathroom was that the construction cost was lower than building the bathroom and the duration of construction.

03 Approach to project
439
EXP Team is prepared to deliver the services called for in the Scope of Services section of the RFQ. The following is an outline of the responsibilities expected to be assigned to EXP under this contract and examples of where we have successfully delivered our assignments.
Project Development Services
EXP will provide complete Plans, Specifications, and
Estimates (PS&E) for the assigned projects in compliance with the City and the APA standards as well as Caltrans standards where applicable.
The EXP Team management is comprised of former
Metro, Caltrans, and local city division managers with
solid track records of having delivered a range of small to multi-million-dollar projects on local streets and State highways. We understand the City’s concerns, urgencies, and priorities, and will work with the City, other agencies, and our subconsultants to deliver the projects assigned to us timely and cost-effectively. We strongly believe in early coordination with all parties, identification of constraints, and alternatives to go around those, assessment and
anticipation of risk, clarification of roles and responsibilities, securing commitments of all parties for joint ownership of projects and collective efforts to deliver the projects successfully, having back up plans in the event commitments may be affected by the unexpected (i.e.: utility relocation schedules affected by utility owners’ seasonal emergencies), and other considerations that will contribute to the
successful completion of projects.
As the first step in the project development process for each project, we will,
• Meet with the City staff to understand the need
for the project and the benefits expected by its
implementation. Based on the City’s input/responses,
the scope of the project will be finalized.
• Set the schedule and identify budget, availability and sources of funds, and the timing of the availability of funds for the project and plan all activities to ensure project delivery within the set schedule and available
budget. In the event grants are involved in projects,
we will schedule early coordination with the funding
agency (Caltrans, LA Metro, others) to identify the
agency contact(s) and schedule all necessary activities, communications, and coordination for agreements,
reporting, and invoicing throughout the development
and implementation of projects.
• Identify the agencies/entities with review, approval, and permitting authorities and a point of contact for each
for coordination throughout the life of each project.
A Project Development Team (PDT) comprised of the
staff from the City, EXP team, other agencies, utility
owners, and others will be formed for each project, a
“life of project” meeting schedule will be developed and focused meetings will be added as needed.
At the start of technical work, we will.
• Research all available records for every assigned
project to understand the history of issues and
improvements/changes and build an information library
of all documented issues and improvements within or
affecting the project limits.
• Field check the project site to document the existing conditions and validate consistency between the records and the actual field conditions; photograph the existing conditions for future reference and records; and perform any other necessary work to build a strong information
database reflecting the existing conditions. We will
identify the utilities and other facilities owned by others, identify the owners, and add them to the list of project stakeholders to coordinate with throughout the project
development process.
• Schedule a project kick-off meeting with all project
partners and stakeholders, share the project information, identify levels of engagement, prepare a list of contacts for the project file and share with all parties, discuss and set tentative schedule of all reviews and approvals, document the communication and agreements, prepare the notes
and share with all parties. Any reasonable deviations not jeopardizing the project delivery process and agreed to by all affected parties will be sent to all in writing.
• Conduct all other necessary work to verify and validate the current conditions, secure all third-party as-builts and other relevant documents/information, and other
preparatory work as necessary.
03 | APPROACH TO PROJECT
City of Lynwood
On-Call Engineering Services
APPROACH TO PROJECT | 6

During the design process, we will,
• Review the PSR, PR, environmental documents, surveys, and other work done earlier and validate/update the
information/documents.
• Prepare the preliminary PS&E (30%+), prepare all
supporting technical studies, conduct all necessary
coordination and data collection, ensure utmost accuracy in the draft PS&E, and circulate the package for review and comment.
• Collect feedback from internal and external reviewers and advance the design to 60% - 90% depending on the
size and complexity of the project and the extent of the details that must be addressed and circulate again for
review and comment/conceptual approval. For smaller-
scale projects, we will make every effort to deliver this round at 90%+ to cut schedule and cost.
• Implement all final changes after receiving feedback, if any, and finalize the PS&E.
Our design and construction management staff will conduct comprehensive reviews of our design work and work done
by others to ensure the thoroughness and quality of work, accuracy of information, compliance with applicable industry standards and guidelines, constructability and sustainability of the built project, convenience to traffic during construction, avoidance and/or mitigation of impacts, compliance with all City requirements, and inclusion of adequate measures of public/user safety.
Syed Raza, Gabriel Rodriguez, Anh Case, and Luis Betancourt of EXP will lead this work with assistance from our technical staff. Our competent services to our clients and their
testimonies included elsewhere in this proposal attest to the quality of our services.
We will provide engineering support services for projects in construction by assessing the need for additional or modification of the components included in the approved design for all possible safety and functional enhancements. We will ensure continuous evaluation of projects in construction, early detection of issues, quick start of modifications/change orders, and timely approvals to prevent/minimize delays and cost overruns to the extent possible.
We are currently doing this work for the City of Los Angeles for the 7th Street Improvements Project. Our work includes design modifications for the bus stops, coordination with the City and LA Metro in configuration of joint stop locations, addition of landscaping and irrigation lines, elimination of old elevator accesses on sidewalks and sidewalk gap closures, and other enhancement work.
Constructability Reviews/Construction
Management/Construction Support
Services
The EXP Construction Management Team prides itself
in delivering projects from cradle to grave. Our services begin with constructability reviews for projects that will be anticipated to go to bid. Our thorough reviews include our findings, potential solutions, and any impacts to the contract.
We will meet with the engineering team to rectify any matters that may come up, so we ultimately have solid bid documents.
We provided constructability review services to the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG) for the
Turnbull Grade Separation Project and to the City of Carson for the Sepulveda Bridge Widening Project. Anh case and her construction management team provided over 300
constructability-related comments for the Turnbull Grade Separation project leading to much more clarity in scope and procedures and a more buildable and biddable project.
EXP staff also provided engineering support services
during construction for the City of Los Angeles’ 7th Street improvements project, including identification and addition of many items missed by other consultants during design.
Our services continue throughout the bid phase where we can summarize and validate the bids for the projects. Once bids are received, EXP will perform a bid analysis with the use of a Bid Summary spreadsheet to assess the most responsive bidder and determine the lowest cost bidder. We will also assist the City in the preparation of the contract award package and agenda items for City Council meetings. We will also support the City in preparing for the Pre-Construction meetings.
Upon commencement of work, we will,
• Closely monitor the progress of assigned projects in
construction, conduct risk assessment studies at critical milestones to confirm the project progress, expenditures to date, and that the remaining work and cost stay as
originally envisioned and fit within the project budget (including the authorized contingency).
• Monitor each project’s critical path and arrange for
accelerations where possible and necessary to stay on
schedule, accelerate all functions that can be accelerated and assign the “freed-up” resources to support other
functions to keep the cost and schedule controlled to the extent possible.
• Assist the City PW staff in drafting the scopes of
additional services/change orders and negotiating the
costs with the contractors.

• Provide services including but not limited to roadway and structures inspection, answering RFI’s, submittal services, review of shop plans, drafting change orders, claims
support, scheduling, and review of pay estimates.
In addition to transportation projects, we will provide construction bid advertising, bid administration, inspection, and construction management services for water treatment facilities, sewer and water lines, storm drain systems, traffic signals, street improvement, paving, striping, and other projects.
We successfully managed the construction of the Mountain View Bridge Project and the Hesperia Ranchero Widening
Project for the Inland Valley Development Agency’s
(IVDA). For the Mountain View Bridge Project, we provided recommendations for workarounds to the contractor and
avoided the impacts of the adjacent SBCTA Redlands Rail Project on our delivery schedule.
Project Close Out
Our team is committed to closing out most projects within 2 months. This includes as-built drawings, providing all documents for the City’s archiving. All documents will be provided both in a hard-copy format as well as electronic copies in an external hard drive for the City’s usage.
Reports
EXP will,
• Prepare and/or support the preparation of staff reports for City Council, various committees, and advisory bodies. • Prepare and/or oversee the preparation of technical
reports and designs for approval/acceptance by the City Engineer.
• Prepare and/or oversee the preparation of reports and designs for third-party reviews and approvals.
• Prepare other needed reports.
Abdollah Ansari’s experience in transportation management includes positions as Sr. Executive Officer leading the LA Metro’s multi-billion-dollar Countywide Highway Programs; Manager, Traffic & Transportation Bureau of the City of Long Beach; Acting Chief, Caltrans District 7 Advance Planning Division; and Caltrans District 7 Senior Transportation/ Environmental Planner. In those positions, Abdollah prepared, reviewed, and approved a wide range of technical and
administrative reports for major transportation projects and programs. He will apply this experience to the work assigned under this contract and will assist the City in successfully advancing and securing approvals for its projects.
Syed Raza, former Caltrans Deputy District Director for Project/Program Management, has significant experience and is well-versed in the agency/project reporting processes, the expected level of detail, clarity and accuracy of the message, and solid arguments supporting the information and requests for various approvals. Syed has used his skill set to help the City of Chino with their federally funded $50M Pine Avenue Extension Project through Caltrans Office of Local Assistance, coordinating with various stakeholders including City of Chino Hills, San Bernardino County Flood Control District, U.S. Army Corp of Engineer, Southern California Edison and other resource agencies. His proactive program management approach, communication and problem-solving skills, ability to build consensus and strong leadership skills has helped RTPAs, counties and cities deliver their portfolio of projects on and off State Highway System.
Gabriel Rodriguez, EXP’s engineering lead, and Anh Case, our construction management lead on this team, will guide the preparation of all technical reports, design, and other documents for all assigned projects and check the reports for accuracy and relevance prior to final signatures. They also will review or assign qualified team members to review the design and documents prepared by others for various projects in the City.
Outside Agency Coordination
EXP staff will assist the City staff in all discussions, coordinations, plan check, negotiations, agreements, processing paperwork, permits, and other efforts involving Caltrans Local Assistance, Permits, Right-of-Way, Project Development, Project Management, and other departments; County of Los Angeles; LA Metro; and other agencies for federal and state funded projects.
Long and solid relationships between some of EXP managers and these agencies and our deep knowledge of their processes, procedures, constraints, and expectations will be extremely useful to the City of Lynwood in having quick as-needed communication and answers and will help the City get to the desired results. In discussions of funding, plan and document checks, permit approvals, and other collaborations, these professional relationships will work to all parties’ advantage.
We will also help the City staff in communication with
State and federal agencies. We will review correspondence with those agencies and provide input and assistance with responses and follow up communication where needed.
Abdollah Ansari and Syed Raza have successfully conducted inter-agency coordination and negotiations with local, State, and federal agencies to support timely and cost-effective delivery of local and State projects.

In his role as the project/contract manager leading the implementation of an emergency roadway reconstruction
project for the City of LA, Abdollah successfully managed utility relocation efforts with the LADWP an Southern
California Gas Company, for relocation of water, power, and gas lines to accommodate timely implementation of projects.
As well, Abdollah, while leading the LA Metro Highway
Programs, successfully managed multi-agency coordination with local, regional, State, and federal agencies for the implementation of several major freeway improvement
projects funded by Measure R an M sales tax funds.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) apply to
all types and phases of work assigned in this contract. As several EXP managers are former Agency managers, the “client expectations” concept is well understood and embedded in our services and is one of our core values.
We implement a rigorous and effective QA/QC Plan for all projects irrespective of size or complexity. EXP prepares a comprehensive project specific Quality Management Plan
(QMP) for every project to demonstrate its commitment to quality. The QMP outlines an effective and efficient process for the development, review, and approval of all project deliverables, sets quality and document control requirements, and defines the timing and procedures for technical peer reviews and draft plan and document checks including
engineering reports. It also provides consistency to the Quality Review Process and highlights the standards to use throughout the life of the project. The QMPs for the projects assigned to EXP will be prepared by Luis Betancourt, Former Caltrans Headquarters’ QA/QC manager responsible for Districts’
production and will be submitted to the City for review and approval within two weeks of receiving the Notice To Proceed for every project. Luis’ decades of experience with design and quality management of complex transportation projects will be of high value to the City of Lynwood.
Luis, Abdollah Ansari, Syed Raza, and EXP functional leads will closely collaborate to ensure all requirements for quality production are met. We will apply the same QA/QC concepts and procedures to the focused work assigned to the specialty area subconsultant on our team. At the award of a focused work task order to one of our subconsultants, we will identify a QA/QC manager from the subconsultant firm, share the
guidelines and requirements with them, and maintain regularly scheduled meetings and communication with them to the
completion of work prior to final approvals.
In his role as Caltrans Project Delivery Coordinator, Luis provided advice/guidance for major highway improvement
projects at the project initiation stage and throughout the PS&E phase. He reviewed and approved the QA/QC process
for capital improvement projects by various Caltrans District offices and ensured the uniform application of geometric design standards, procedures, guidelines, and practices.
Luis’ efforts led to the development of high quality and cost effective major highway capital projects within the programmed allocations and established schedules.
We have selected subconsultant firms that we have worked with in the past years/decades, who provided services to those of us who were on the Agency side and delivered beyond expectations. We have already tested these firms and trust their expertise and focus on quality of the services they provide to their clients.

EXP is providing roadway and retaining walls design, drainage studies and engineering, community coordination/briefing support, utility coordination, and other services to the LABOE.
There are two projects in progress at this time:
Project 1: Geometric design corrections to widen part of the road, modify the longitudinal and cross slopes of the road and widen/flatten a steep bend on the street to improve vehicular movement and safety at this location. This project has been promised to the community for a long time and is the first phase of a larger project to improve the street. Our team is on schedule for the PS&E delivery.
Project 2: Widening, geometric design improvements, retaining walls, and drainage improvements for a section of the road that has settled/failed due to rain seepage, weakness of the underlayers, and heavy loading/heavy vehicles. The slopes on the south/west side of the road are also moderately eroded and further failure of the roadway is imminent. This project is scheduled to be constructed before the upcoming storm season. Coordinations with the Southern California Gas Co. and the LADWP are in progress an relocations are being scheduled. Our team is on schedule to finish the final design and accommodate the construction of the project before the rain season.

Task Orders
Main Street Pavement Improvements
The City of Seal Beach proposed to Mill and Overlay four residential streets as well Main Street which intersects the Major State Highway Pacific Coast Highway. The existing asphalt was sub-standard with multiple areas with alligator crack failures.
EXP developed plans, technical specifications and estimates for these streets as part of the City’s Annual Paving Program and was instrumental in providing the IFB package on schedule for the City’s procurement of a contractor. Services include roadway geometric design, Traffic Control Plan, and plan production.
Marina Drive Resurfacing Project
The project proposed to rehabilitate the existing asphalt paving on Marina Drive between 1st Street and State Route (SR) 1. EXP prepared plans, specifications, and an estimate that included milling and overlay, full depth structural section replacement, ADA improvements, cross gutter and driveway replacements, and signing and striping. EXP also obtained an encroachment permit from Caltrans District 12 for traffic control on SR-1. Construction was completed in the summer of 2021.
