TITLE: PLAN REVIEW AND BUILDING INSPECTION SERVICES
1. Introduction:
The City of Manteca Building Safety Division is responsible for plan review and inspections of commercial and residential construction projects within the City of Manteca. The Planning Division is responsible for planning for the future development of Manteca. Examples of the division's work include: reviewing and approving land-use and development proposals, implementing the City's General Plan, administering the Zoning Ordinance, processing updates and amendments to the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, creating master plans, ensuring compliance with State and Federal mandates regarding development, land divisions, and environmental review, and acting as staff for the City's Planning Commission. Due to fluctuating workloads and limited staffing, it is necessary at times to employ third party agency services on some projects to maintain reasonable response times. With the improvement in the economy, and several projects planned for the near future, third party services will be necessary to avoid a reduction in service to the community as workload increases. Responsive bids must be received by Wednesday, January 15, 2025.

PROPOSAL SUMMARY
Project Understanding
TRB would like to confirm its intent to provide professional consulting services in accordance with the Scope of Work identified in the City of Manteca’s Request for Proposal (RFP) document. In brief, it is our understanding that the City is seeking qualified consultants to assist with On-Call Building Department Staffing, Plan Review, and Planning Staffing Services on a range of project types. It is presumed that all assigned projects are to be reviewed for adherence to the City of Manteca’s latest adopted Municipal Codes and Title 24 California Building Standards Codes covering structural, fire prevention, life safety, accessibility, energy conservation, green building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical provisions; and potentially also planning, zoning, and grading compliance standards. We are well familiar with State, County, and local requirements, and other relevant industry standards and are ready to put our knowledge to work for the City.
To confirm, TRB has reviewed the Scope of Services as outlined in the City’s RFP and is prepared to provide the services requested. The following reflects our proposed work plan for providing the requested scope of services.
Project Approach Overview
Our approach is centered on using experienced staff and fostering open communication between our firm and our clients. On an ongoing basis, our proposed Project Manager, Petya McInnis, PE, CASp, is committed to maintaining regular communication with City staff to ensure that we are kept apprised of current code interpretations and policies, and to enhance our ability to quickly respond to any issues that may arise during permit counter, document review, and/or inspection activities. We value the importance of the City’s projects and are committed to meeting all project service delivery deadlines. We will diligently document and report all plan review and inspection findings, tracking information, and other reports, as required by the City.
Throughout this engagement, our key team members will be available to meet with City staff either via phone or in person to address questions that may come up during the course of a project. We understand that being accessible to project stakeholders is essential in helping ensure that decisions are made in timely manner; as such, our firm is committed to responding to all inquiries within 1 business day. We encourage discussions via in-person meetings, telecon, and/or Zoom, WebEx or similar formats as agreeable and necessary to achieve the most expeditious results.
Project Initialization, Scheduling & Management
From our prior experience supporting municipal building departments and divisions, we know that developing a comprehensive understanding of administrative processes, the project construction documents, and supporting the timely execution of the project schedule is of critical importance. To confirm, for any plan review or inspection assignment, TRB members will possess a thorough understanding of the project documents and will be committed to supporting the City with its specific project schedule and processing needs.
Preliminary Meetings and Project Administration
Shortly after project award, we would propose to hold a meeting to verify project expectations, deliverables, scheduling, and logistical considerations. To this end, we would seek to verify the key roles and responsibilities for all team’s party to the project.
We would also request information specific to each plan review or inspection assignment including plan drawings and specifications, as appropriate. Further, we can outline and discuss applicable standards and provide an overview of our Document Management System if desired. On an ongoing basis, our Project Manager will coordinate with our Plan Review and Inspection Services Managers, to allocate plan check, inspection, and staffing resources appropriately. Regular communication between our Project Manager and the TRB team will be ongoing throughout this engagement to ensure alignment on project staffing and schedule needs.

PROPOSAL SUMMARY
Quality Control Assurance
Quality reviews and inspections are of paramount importance to us. Though we employ only experienced plan reviewers and inspectors and expect their work to be of a high standard, we have instituted a quality control policy to ensure that this standard is maintained. At the core of our quality control approach is having a “two sets of eyes” policy in place. All work performed by staff is reviewed for quality control by senior members of our team.
Our Project Manager, and Quality Control Principal, Dominic Ma SE, MPA, will be in the lead role of ensuring accuracy and consistency (QA/QC) in the application of adopted codes and standards for any City assignments.
Code Interpretations and Alternate Materials and Methods Requests The TRB team is well versed in the intent of codes and standards as they apply to the built environment. To ensure that our technical findings are easily understood, we work to ensure that all of our plan review and inspection findings / communications are done in a clear and concise manner. As part of this effort, we include references to any applicable Code or Standard sections to help ensure recipients understand the basis of our findings. Our team will be available to answer questions related to codes or standards at any time. For those items where additional information may be needed, our team has access to additional resources in the form of code and commentary guidelines, illustrations, and agency interpretations. TRB is prepared to offer reference information to whomever may be requesting the clarifying material. In addition, our team has experience supporting public agencies with Alternate Materials and Methods Requests. If a project warrants such consideration, we are prepared to review all AMMR requests.
Building Code Instruction
TRB is prepared to offer Building Code Instruction support to the City in either classroom or field-type settings on a range of technical subjects. Paul Armstrong is an award-winning California Building Standards Codes instructor whose accolades includes being named CALBO Instructor of the Year. Paul is currently providing extensive training on the California Building and Residential Codes to TRB clients, local ICC Chapters, and CALBO Education Week attendees. Paul will be available to provide tailored training to the City and its invited guests upon request. TRB is an ICC Preferred Education provider.
Record Keeping and Document Management
From our prior experience, we understand that projects can involve concurrent, fast-track design and construction efforts, thereby necessitating implementation and management of well-organized processes in place to name and track documents in their various stages of development and review. TRB understands that tracking and maintaining well documented plan review and inspection findings is of paramount importance.
To facilitate timely access to construction inspection results and status information, TRB can initiate its Project Website for use on this assignment. With our project website, all plan review and inspection activities can be documented and posted daily.
Correspondence issued by our team is posted and maintained for access by City and designated project stakeholder staff. Our postings can include plan review comment letters and detailed inspection reports, project information, meeting notes, etc.; all of which may be updated on a daily basis. In addition, we can also accommodate incoming electronic document postings (i.e., electronic plans, calculations, RFI’s, etc.) to allow paperless documentation of the project. Our Document Control Team oversees all plan submittal and inspection record processing, utilizing proven document management control methods.
Key Personnel Availability Statement
We would like to confirm that key personnel will be available to the extent proposed for the duration of the project and acknowledge that no person designated as key to the project shall be removed or replaced without the prior written concurrence of the City.

Example Plan Review Process
The following process represents an example plan review workflow. Please note that the plan review workflow utilized for the City will align with the City’s specific workflow requirements and needs.
Step 1 - Preliminary Discussions: Prior to beginning our initial plan review project, our Project Manager proposes to conduct a meeting or conference call with the City to discuss local code policies, documentation procedures, plan processing protocols, plan review checklist items, and scheduling.
Step 2 - Initial Review: Upon receipt of a complete set of plan documents, we will perform our plan review in the agreed-upon timeframe, checking for compliance to all applicable code standards. All corrections are identified based on compliance with specified codes and regulations and worded so the designer will know what needs attention and how to respond to the issue stated. The client will receive a copy of each correction list, as well as a cover memo containing the date plans were reviewed by TRB.
Step 3 - Transmittal of Plans and Comment Lists for Plan Review: At the heart of our approach in delivering our services to you is the recognition that there must be a coordinated effort to track and coordinate all submittals and requests received. To help assure that submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, TRB has established an internal plan review coordination process to ensure that each plan received for review is properly handled, processed, and returned on time. Our plan tracking procedures are computerized to track each submittal through the review process and maintain accurate and comprehensive records for each submittal. Upon completion of our review, any comments generated are consolidated into a correction letter in the City’s preferred format (e.g. Bluebeam, Adobe Acrobat, or other format) which is remitted to the City for its reference.
Step 4 - Rechecks: Upon receipt of the resubmittal package from the applicant, once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed-upon timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for approval.
Step 5 - Plan Approval: When all review comments are satisfied, we will forward all relevant correspondence bearing our company’s “Reviewed for Code Compliance” stamp (including plans, calculations, and specifications), along with a transmittal letter indicating our recommendation for project approval, and the project file to the City for processing.
Shipping and Delivery of Plans
TRB provides pre-printed overnight shipping labels and/or pickup services to facilitate the transport of any hardcopy plan submittals to our office. Please note that the pickup, shipment and delivery of plan documents and other relevant correspondence to the City are provided at no additional cost.
