Dear Mr. Elwin,
Reference: Engineering Services During Construction Proposal for the Merced WWTF ASD and Headworks Improvements Project
Stantec Consulting Services Inc. (Stantec) is submitting this proposal to provide engineering services during bidding and construction for the City of Merced Wastewater treatment Facility (WWTF) Active Solar Dryer Supplemental Heating and Headworks Improvements Project.

A separate proposal will be sent for the bidding and construction services for the Phase VI Improvements Project (as these are two separate construction projects that will be performed by two separate General Contractors). It is understood that the City will provide their own construction management (CM) inspection services and third party specialty testing/inspectors, outside of the scope of this work.

Our proposed scope of work is as follows:

Task 530 - Services During Bidding
Task 530.1 Pre-Bid Conference
Stantec will conduct a pre-bid conference with the general contractors, subcontractors, and other interested parties to explain the requirements for bidding the ASD and Headworks Improvements Project and the construction constraints and schedule milestones. Stantec will participate in mandatory site visit and walk- through at the WWTF for all pre-bid conference attendees.

Task 530.2 Respond to Requests for Information (RFls)
We will receive and respond to questions from the general contractors, subcontractors and suppliers during the bid period. We will keep a written log of questions and distribute responses and distribute weekly to all plan holders and the City during the bid period.

Task 530.3 Prepare Addendums

Review comments will be conveyed to the Construction Manager for processing and distribution. Submittals will be reviewed and returned to the Construction Manager within 30 calendar days, unless an earlier reply is requested on selected submittals.

Deliverables: Review and provide written electronic responses (PDF) for up to 150 submittals and 40 resubmittals.

Task 600.4 Respond to Contractor RFls and Clarifications Stantec design staff will respond in writing and in a timely manner to requests for information (RFl's) from the Contractor. RFl's will be reviewed and returned to the Construction Manager. Stantec shall respond to RFI's in writing within 14 calendar days, unless and earlier reply is requested on selected RFl's.

Deliverables: Respond in writing electronically to an up to 100 RFls Task 600.5 Assist in Review of Change Orders
stantec will assist with the technical review, drawings and specifications for change orders prepared by the Construction Manager. It is assumed the Construction Manager will be responsible for preparing the change order document and negotiating the change order cost with the Contractor.
