City Council Staff Report

DATE: JUNE 2, 2026

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM DIVISION

DISTRICT: 1

SUBJECT: APPROVE SECOND AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH
PARSONS TRANSPORTATION GROUP FOR PN 653, PALMDALE
BLVD. AND SIERRA HIGHWAY RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY

UPGRADES PROJECT, INCREASING THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT
AMOUNT OF $1,168,092 BY $428,480 FOR A TOTAL NOT TO
EXCEED AMOUNT OF $1,596,572 FOR AN ADDITIONAL TERM OF
365 CALENDAR DAYS

RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommend that the City Council:

1. Approve Second Amendment to Agreement No. A -7414 with Parsons Transportation Group for PN 653, Palmdale Blvd. and Sierra Highway Railroad Crossing Safety Upgrades Project (Project), increasing the original agreement amount of $1,168,092 by $428,480 for a total not to exceed contract amount of $1,596,572 for an additional term of 365 calendar days; and,

2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the Second Amendment to Agreement No. A -7414 with Parsons Transportation Group for minor and/or non-substantial changes.

BACKGROUND

State Route 138 (SR 138), otherwise known as Palmdale Blvd., is a major arterial roadway that runs east -west and traverses State Route 14 (SR 14) in the City of Palmdale. It provides both local and regional access to the residential and business communities on both the east and west sides of SR 14 and has an average daily traffic volume of more than 25,000 vehicles.

The SR -138 widening project's primary goal is to improve the safety of the railroad crossing at Palmdale Blvd. and increase vehicular capacity on Palmdale Blvd. The Project Report to Mayor and City Council
Re: Second Amendment to Agrmt No. A-7414 with Parsons
June 2, 2026

Page 2 ends

budget was set at $25 million, with a scope of work that included the reconfiguration of the railroad signal mast -arms and other associated rail equipment to current standards, the widening of Palmdale Blvd. to three lanes in each direction from 5th Street East to 10th Street East, and the improvement of two intersections of Palmdale Blvd. at 6th Street East and Sierra Highway.

This scope of work has advanced to 95% Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E) with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), w hich marks the point at which the City is required to begin committing significant dollars to purchase right-of-way from the 49 impacted parcels along Palmdale Blvd.

DISCUSSION

Since the initiation of the SR 138 (Palmdale Blvd.) at-grade crossing improvement project and the filing of the City’s Application (A2405012) with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), the City has used existing project funds to advance design and coordination to reach the current design mile stones. These expenditures have included consultant engineering for geometric refinements, traffic signal and preemption design, preparation and submittal of technical exhibits (including preemption calculations), and participation in CPUC proceedings and technical meetings with Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR), the Rail Safety Division (RSD), Caltrans, and Metrolink. These tasks were not anticipated as part of the original design services scope.

The design included preemption timing of 85 seconds for the traffic signal and safety mast arms at the intersection . After several meetings to reach an agreement, Union Pacific Railroad would not accept this timing, citing a maximum acceptable preemption time of 55 seconds. The standard that Union Pacific referenced is not a nationally accepted standard, and as a result, the City and Consultant were not able to anticipate this being a factor in the project scope. As such, in May 2024, Parsons filed a Formal Application with the CPUC to determine the preemption timing for the intersection. Additional funding is now required to complete the final design, address remaining agency comments, and implement the commitment s reflected in the proposed Settlement Agreement with the CPUC parties. The funds requested will be used to finalize plans, specifications, and estimates, and to complete remaining coordination with UPRR, Caltrans, and Metrolink.

FISCAL IMPACT

$428,480; Funds are budgeted and available in FY 2025-26. This Project is funded using Measure R Equity Grant funds.

STRATEGIC PLAN

Goal III: Invest in infrastructure to improve community livability.

4 Project Approach
Willdan is expected to function as the City’s representative, ensuring that all construction activities are executed in strict conformance with the approved plans, specifications, contract documents, and applicable laws. The approach is structured around proactive risk management, schedule control, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and transparent communication with City staff, stakeholders, utilities, and the public.

Willdan’s services commence during the pre-construction phase with a formal constructability review and continue uninterrupted through construction, closeout, and final acceptance, ensuring continuity, institutional knowledge retention, and accountability. There are many routine aspects that are common to the way every construction project is performed in terms of construction administration and inspection of development, permitted, and capital improvement projects as outlined in our scope and in the diagram below:

Throughout construction, our team will maintain a project-first philosophy with the contractor. When this is achieved, construction is easy, straight forward, and accomplished with a minimum of issues. We are a team – right is right and wrong is wrong for all parties. When this is established, it creates a fair environment for all, and project success is achieved.

Understanding of the Project
The City of Palmdale, through its Department of Public Works Capital Improvement Program, is undertaking the 45th Street Sewer, Storm Drain, and Street Renovation Project (PN 796) to address documented stormwater management deficiencies, aging sewer infrastructure, and roadway rehabilitation needs along the 45th Street East corridor between Avenue S and Avenue R. The project is a critical component of the City’s adopted Capital Improvement Program and aligns with the City’s Master Plan of Drainage, with the objectives of improving public safety, reducing flood risk, and supporting future development capacity.

The scope includes construction of a new regional storm drain system extending the existing 66-inch storm drain from Avenue R-8 to Avenue R, completing a key missing link in the regional drainage network, along with installation of an 18-inch sewer relief line to alleviate capacity constraints in the existing 12-inch sewer main. Additional work includes pavement rehabilitation, curb and gutter improvements, utility adjustments, monument preservation, and final signing and striping. The City has identified recurring ponding and operational deficiencies during storm events, requiring a comprehensive, coordinated infrastructure solution rather than isolated repairs. The estimated construction cost is $7.5–$7.6 million, with an anticipated duration of 251 working days and a targeted completion in Spring 2027.

Willdan understands its role as the City’s representative and will perform all services in full compliance with the RFP and Addendum, including timely constructability review, qualified construction management and full-time observation, use of the City’s Virtual Project Manager for documentation, required reporting and schedule control, labor compliance and materials testing, bilingual public outreach, and delivery of the project in accordance with all City, State, and Federal requirements.

City of Palmdale
19 Quality Assurance/Quality Control Procedures
QA/QC protocols will be maintained throughout all project phases to ensure compliance.

1. Tailored QCP Development: Prior to project kickoff, we will outline specific QA/QC activities, roles, review checkpoints, documentation protocols, and reporting formats.

2. Qualified Multi-Disciplinary QA/QC Team: Our QA/QC oversight is provided by experienced professionals independent of day-to-day production staff. This ensures objective reviews of all deliverables while promoting accountability and continuous improvement. Oversight will include spot checking of daily inspection reports and periodic review of Virtual Project Manager files and Willdan’s internal Box folder archives.

3. Deliverable-Based QA/QC Workflow
Constructability Review: Pre-construction assessments will be performed to identify existing conditions, validate scope, and optimize constructability. Field-experienced inspectors and construction managers evaluate plans for feasibility, phasing logic, utility coordination, access, and potential conflicts. Internal cross-discipline coordination checks ensure drawings, schedules, and specifications are consistent across all design and technical packages. This reduces RFIs and change orders during construction.

QA/QC Control Review: Prior to submission, deliverables undergo a final quality control check for formatting, adherence to submittal requirements, and traceable documentation of prior review comments.

4. Communication: Willdan’s intent is to be the main hub through which all project communications are routed. Lines of communication will be discussed and clarified at the kickoff meeting with the City and at the preconstruction meeting with the contractor. Maintaining proper lines of communication provides for proper control over direction being provided to the Project Team.

5. Documentation and Issue Resolution: Project issues are identified and tracked through resolution. Lessons learned are logged for future task optimization and risk mitigation.

6. Field QA During Construction: Willdan will provide construction oversight with regular inspections, documentation control, and quality assurance measures. During construction, our inspectors and construction managers monitor work for conformance with approved plans, specifications, and materials. Non-conformance reports (NCRs), daily reports, and testing logs are maintained and submitted. RFI and submittal logs are created through Virtual Project Manager and reviewed at each construction progress meeting to ensure timely responses.

20 Schedule Control
Willdan’s approach to schedule control is rooted in proactive planning, continuous monitoring, and real-time coordination. Our goal is to maintain the project schedule from award of contract through substantial completion by highlighting potential constructability concerns during design review, identifying potential delays early, responding quickly to field conditions, processing RFIs, submittals, and change orders in a timely manner, and keeping all stakeholders informed and aligned. We use a combination of industry-standard tools and clear communication protocols to ensure the construction schedule remains on track.

1. Baseline Review and Integration: Upon receipt, we will conduct a thorough review of the contractor’s baseline schedule, verifying logic ties, critical path accuracy, sequencing, and milestone alignment with the City's goals. Our team coordinates with the contractor to ensure the schedule reflects realistic durations, lead times for long-lead items (e.g., fencing, play equipment, irrigation components), and seasonal considerations relevant to Palmdale’s climate.

2. Weekly Progress Tracking: Our field inspectors and construction managers provide real-time input to evaluate actual vs. planned progress. We will require the contractor to submit updated schedules monthly (or more frequently if needed) in Primavera P6 or MS Project. Our in house scheduling team will analyze these updates to identify deviations from the critical path and recommend corrective actions if progress begins to slip.

3. Look-Ahead Schedules and Coordination: We require and review two- to four-week look-ahead schedules from the contractor as part of the weekly progress meetings. These are cross-checked with field conditions and material delivery schedules. This process allows us to proactively mitigate conflicts such as overlapping trades or access restrictions due to public park operations or weather events.

4. Delay Mitigation and Recovery Planning: When delays are encountered, our team collaborates with the contractor to analyze root causes and implement mitigation measures. We will assist the City in evaluating time impact analyses for any proposed schedule adjustments, and we will hold the contractor accountable for submitting recovery schedules if delays jeopardize substantial completion.

5. Transparent Communication: We maintain detailed schedule logs and distribute summary reports to City staff on a recurring basis. All schedule discussions and updates are documented and tied to action items that are tracked through resolution. This ensures transparency and keeps the City fully informed of progress and risks.

Example: Potential Delay Aversion

Sec. 1921 et seq.) or where federal regulations or policies, or both, do not allow the substitution of securities. At the request and expense of Contractor, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall be deposited with the City, or with a state or federally chartered bank in the State of California as the escrow agent, that shall then pay those moneys to Contractor. Upon satisfactory completion of the Contract, the securities shall be returned to Contractor.

Alternatively, Contractor may request and the City shall make payment of retentions earned directly to the escrow agent at the expense of Contractor. At the expense of Contractor, Contractor may direct the investment of the payments into securities, and Contractor shall receive the interest earned on the investments upon the same terms provided for securities deposited by Contractor. Upon satisfactory completion of the Contract, Contractor shall receive from the escrow agent all securities, interest, and payments received by the escrow agent from the City, pursuant to the terms of this section.

If Contractor elects to receive interest on any moneys withheld in retention by the City, then the subcontractor shall receive the identical rate of interest received by Contractor on any retention moneys withheld from the subcontractor by Contractor, less any actual pro rata costs associated with administering and calculating that interest. In the event that the interest rate is a fluctuating rate, the rate for the subcontractor shall be determined by calculating the interest rate paid during the time that retentions were withheld from the subcontractor. If Contractor elects to substitute securities in lieu of retention, then, by mutual consent of Contractor and its subcontractor, the 9-14Concord - Document ID: 033Kk4i4ymT0ns3mMvwCig
subcontractor may substitute securities in exchange for the release of moneys held in retention by Contractor. No Contractor shall require any subcontractor to waive any provision of this paragraph.

The escrow agreement for security deposits in lieu of retention shall be substantially similar to the form provided in Public Contract Code Section 22300(f). 21 Claims Dispute Resolution
In the event of any dispute or controversy with the City over any matter whatsoever, the Contractor shall not cause any delay or cessation in or of Work, but shall proceed with the performance of the Work in dispute. The Contractor shall retain any and all rights provided that pertain to the resolution of disputes and protests between the parties. The Disputed Work will be categorized as an “unresolved dispute” and payment, if any, shall be as later determined by mutual agreement or a court of law. The Contractor shall keep accurate, detailed records of all Disputed Work, claims and other disputed matters.

All claims arising out of or related to the Contract documents or this Project, and the consideration and payment of such claims, are subject to the Government Claims Act (Government Code Section 810 et seq.) with regard to filing claims. All such claims are also subject to Public Contract Code Section 9204 and Public Contract Code Section 20104 et seq. (Article 1.5), where applicable. This Contract hereby incorporates those provisions as though fully set forth herein. Thus, the Contractor or any Subcontractor must file a claim in accordance with the Government Claims Act as a prerequisite to filing a construction claim in compliance with Section 9204 and Article 1.5 (if applicable), and must then adhere to Section 9204 and Article 1.5 (as applicable), pursuant to the definition of “claim” as individually defined therein. 22 OWNERSHIP AND DELIVERY OF WORK PRODUCT

Re: Request for Proposals for Professional Construction Management and Observation Services for Chimbole Center-Library (Phase 1) Remodel and Renovation – Project No. 878
Dear Ms. Howell and Review Committee:

Cumming Management Group, Inc. (Cumming Group), is honored for the opportunity to propose on this generational project for the City of Palmdale to restore the iconic cultural and civic Chimbole Center that has been at the heart of so many family celebrations over the years. Since the tragic fire in 2022, the community has been without its beloved gathering place and they are eager to revitalize the cultural hub. The expansion of the adjacent City Library is also critical to the first phase of the construction program.

The library was built in 1977 as the City’s first municipal building and has not changed much as the City has blossomed over the last 50 years. Central libraries play a vital role in the community, as they have grown into digitized centers for information, after school care, collaboration spaces, and coworking opportunities.

Because of our comprehensive experience and understanding of delivering meaningful cultural and civic projects similar to the Chimbole Center and City Library project, we are well positioned to provide you with the specialized skills and services needed to manage the demands and high expectations for this complicated project. Cumming Group is a great fit for this work based on the following:

Southern California Public Agency Owner’s Representative Experience. Since 1996, Cumming Group has specialized in providing value to public clients, serving as owner’s representatives helping them manage multimillion-dollar projects from conception to occupancy. We have provided these services for nearly three decades for numerous public agencies including LA County Public Works, LA County Library, City of Pasadena, City of Glendale, City of Murrieta, City of West Hollywood, County of Riverside, County of San Bernardino, along with many other municipal, county, state, and federal entities. With this breadth of experience, we are well-versed in responding quickly to owners’ needs and efficient in allocating our best available resources in order to complete our clients’ projects to their utmost satisfaction.

Civic and Cultural Project Expertise. The firm and our proposed staff for this project are experts at managing meaningful civic and cultural projects including the delivery of dozens of local libraries, community center, parks and recreation facilities, theaters, and music centers. We know what it takes to deliver these essential cultural facilities. First and foremost is that we listen to the community that uses these buildings and translate their needs to best serve the public.

Integrated Services. We can provide a range of comprehensive project- and construction management-related services in-house, including construction project management, master planning, economic development planning and administration, finance management, bond and grant management, resident engineering, value engineering, constructability reviews, cost estimating, scheduling, labor compliance, CWA management, commissioning, data analytics, energy and sustainability solutions, and project controls management. Our depth of resources ensures that we will be able to address any of the City’s needs throughout the course of the project. We have reviewed your scope of services and we are uniquely qualified to manage all services in-house, and therefore we have not proposed any subconsultants for this contract.

Our Industry Recognition. We are a trusted advisor in providing high-quality construction management services, as evidenced by our recognition as #10 in Engineering News-Record’s listing of the Top 100 Professional Services Firms, our consistent recognition by the Construction Management Association of America, and our 85% repeat business rate.

On behalf of Cumming Group, I am pleased to present our qualifications to the City of Palmdale. As Executive Vice President and Principal-in-Charge, I am authorized to represent the firm, make binding decisions in all matters relating to our submittal, and will serve as the City’s point of contact for all contractual matters.

I HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREED TO ALL STATEMENTS IN THIS REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT OF ALL ADDENDUMS / AMENDMENTS AS WELL AS TO THE TERMS, CONDITIONS, AND ATTACHMENTS REFERENCED.

We appreciate the opportunity to submit our qualifications and look forward to the possibility of serving the City of Palmdale.

Sincerely,
Anthony Sanchez, RME, Assoc. DBIA

Exclusively Representing Owners
One key characteristic that differentiates Cumming Group from other construction industry service providers is our unwavering commitment to exclusively representing owners. Many of our competitors design or build facilities while also attempting to represent owners fairly and objectively. True advocacy is not always possible when the owner’s interests are not primary.

Cumming Group engages in services exclusive to construction and project management serving as an Owner’s advocate and sole representative and does not engage in competing business interests such as real estate transactions, facility management, architectural design, or general contracting.

Public Sector Experience
From its inception, Cumming Group has
specialized in public and civic projects. We have
supported dozens of California municipalities and
public agencies on work ranging from smaller
capital maintenance projects to multibillion-
dollar building programs, providing us with an
unmatched level of experience in the state. Our
project experience includes management of more
than 10,000 assignments in support of owners,
architects, engineers, and others. This includes
more than 1,500 projects for cities and counties,
covering city halls, civic centers, libraries,
community centers, parks, animal shelters, public
housing, fire and police facilities, port or harbor
facilities, offices, maintenance facilities, roadway
improvements, infrastructure improvement
projects, and traffic signal improvements among
others. Our experience includes everything from
new construction and renovations to tenant
improvements, feasibility studies, and site
assessments.

Firm’s Relevant Experience
Cumming Group has provided our relevant
civic, cultural, library, and parks and recreation
projects within the last 10 years that demonstrate
our experience across key categories of this
project. Each project includes elements that align
closely with the scope and requirements outlined
in the RFP . The projects to the right represent our
expertise in overseeing complex construction
programs while ensuring alignment with budget,
schedule, and stakeholder expectations.

Services Provided
Cumming Group has reviewed the Project Scope and Specifications identified in the RFP that outlines the Scope of Work and we are confident these services all align with our core services. These are the same services that we have delivered in the past and are currently providing to local Cities and Counties.

cumming-group.com City of Palmdale, Chimbole Center Library (Phase 1) Remodel & Renovation4 C. Project Approach
Cumming Group is familiar with the scope of work for the project described in the Request for Proposals and in staff and City Council reports. The following table identifies the tasks listed in Section 3 – Scope of Services of the RFP that will be provided in-house by Cumming Group professional and technical staff. This table includes our approach to staff the project and identifies the staff with Primary and Support responsibilities to accomplish the scope of work.

Project Understanding
The Chimbole Center was established in 1987 and honors Larry Chimbole, who was instrumental in Palmdale's incorporation in 1962 and served as the City’s first mayor. During the holiday season of December 2022, tragedy struck the Chimbole Center when the building was victim to arson. The fire severely impacted the use of the building and it has been closed to the public since the fire. Adjacent to the Chimbole Center is the City Library. The library was established in 1977 as the City's first municipal building. It is approximately 13,000 square feet and has had very few updates since the original construction.

The City aims to deliver significant renovations to both buildings in two phases. Phase 1 consists of the complete renovation of the Chimbole Center, an addition to the Chimbole Center that expands the building into the entry courtyard and connecting the breezeway between the cultural center and adjacent library.

Phase 1 also includes a small addition to the City library at the southeast corner of the building. Phase 2 of the project (not in this scope of work) will renovate the City Library building and allow the library to take advantage of the completed Chimbole Center spaces. The architect for this project is SVA Architects.

Cumming Group, as well as our proposed Construction
Manager and Construction Observer are currently working with SVA Architects to deliver the Murrieta Children’s Library Expansion. We have been working with SVA on this project since July 2024 and we are scheduled to complete the project on time and on budget in December 2026.

Cumming Group has extensive experience fostering meaningful stakeholder and community engagement to support the
success of public projects and capital improvement programs.

Our approach is grounded in transparency, trust-building, and clear communication, ensuring that stakeholders ranging from residents and community partners to agency leadership, elected officials, and regulatory entities understand the purpose, benefits, and progress of each project.

We will collaborate closely with the City to develop a tailored engagement plan aligned with project milestones and decision points. Similar to the $1 billion LAC+USC Hospital redevelopment project we are currently managing, we will produce visually compelling, easy-to-digest bilingual outreach content such as presentation decks, fact sheets, FAQs, schedule and phasing graphics, meeting summaries, and “what to expect” notices.

Where appropriate, we will also support digital communications - such as project webpages or information hubs - to centralize updates, track milestones, and ensure stakeholders can access accurate information throughout delivery. To raise project awareness, we can host open houses and fundraising events, and provided branded merchandise to the residents so they become excited and invested in the project.

cumming-group.com City of Palmdale, Chimbole Center Library (Phase 1) Remodel & Renovation9 E/F. Quality Assurance/Quality Control Procedures
Cumming Group will be responsible for implementing a
robust quality management program for the project to ensure successful outcomes. The following sections outline our effective approach to delivering the QC program across the design phase, construction phase and change management.

Design Quality Control Approach
Our Project Director (Matthew Feldhaus) and Construction Manager (Ryan Kristan) will work together to establish the design criteria, basis of design, code compliance requirements, and design standards at the onset of working with the SVA team.

We implemented the same approach with SVA on the Murrieta Children’s Library Addition and were able to successfully provide constructability review comments, value engineering, and suggest alternates that kept the project within budget.

Our Constructability Review team will provide quality reviews of the 50% design to ensure the standards and criteria established early on are being met. Our technical/constructability reviews will provide additional assurances that the documents meet the industry standard of care, but we will also hold the Architect and Engineers accountable to resolve their own design conflicts, errors, and omissions during the design phases. This review will be completed within the first two weeks of our services and we will provide our comments in writing and meet with the design engineer and City’s Project Manager to discuss the comments in person. We will work throughout the project during the remaining design period to identify potential risk in the design proposed and coordinate with the project team to mitigate the risk. To manage quality risks, our Construction Manager will identify, analyze, prioritize, and mitigate the risks throughout the project lifecycle. The Construction Manager will use tools and techniques such as risk registers, risk matrices, risk response plans, and contingency reserves to manage these quality risks. The Construction Manager will work with the City during the permitting process to ensure the project complies with all code requirements and it satisfies the Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and stakeholder requirements.

Construction Quality Control Approach
The Construction Manager will be responsible for establishing communication protocols with the construction team and
will be responsible for creating the Quality Control plan for distribution. The Quality control plan for construction will focus on:
• Defining and communicating acceptable criteria
• Creating an inspection plan
• Using checklists, notes, and reports to conduct inspections • Correction of deficiencies and verifying acceptance criteria • Prevention of future deficiencies
The Construction Manager and the Construction Observer
will perform construction observations routinely, providing the City confidence that the project is being built according to specifications. The Construction Observer will create daily/ weekly quality inspection reports, take photos on a regular basis, and coordinate with the drawings and specifications to ensure the project is being built in compliance. General construction inspection and verification requirements include inspections, QC testing, establishing construction acceptance criteria, construction audits, compliance with handling, storage, packaging, preservation, and delivery requirements, and material identification and traceability. Inspections may uncover construction deficiencies. These will need to be identified, reported and corrective and preventive action taken.

The key is to proactively identify corrective items early to reduce impact on the overall schedule and be a good partner with the contractor.

A third-party consultant will be procured by the City to provide materials testing and inspection for construction elements that require laboratory services to meet the design criteria established early on the project. The Construction Observer will be responsible for coordinating these activities and will monitor their progress to assure the contractor’s construction methods and materials meet the requirements of the plans and specifications.

Change Management Quality Control Approach
Our project staff will keep tight control over all contract changes as they occur - whether it is a consultant contract, construction contract, or any other service provider contract.

We try to minimize the need for change orders through scope management to prevent scope creep, and through quality
assurance/quality control of the bidding documents. If
changes are needed, we first confirm the contractor is entitled to a change and then estimate its value given the current job conditions. We will first provide an opinion of merit and then assign a change reason (unforeseen condition, errors and omissions, tenant requested change, code change, etc.).

These potential change items will be tracked on a change log maintained by the Construction Manager and Cost Manager. We will include these change items along with anticipated future change items on an exposure log to most accurately depict the potential project budget status at any given time.

After changes are validated by the Construction Manager, our Cost Estimator begins a process of estimating the cost of proposed changes using unit prices, labor hours, and vendor material costs. We will be firm yet fair on the negotiations for additional work and always ensure that the change is required to perform the work at an appropriate cost. We work to resolve each change as quickly as possible so the contractor can be paid and is motivated to complete the added work with a minimum impact to the schedule. Sometimes, however, negotiations may take several weeks to finalize. In the interest of keeping the project moving, our team may need to assist the City with issuing a work authorization/change directive in writing. This will direct the Contractor to proceed while negotiations are ongoing. Each of our change orders for extra work will provide backup information that contains justification for the change and assign responsibility for the change.

This justification will be included with lessons learned to help prevent similar changes in the future on other City projects. Once the change is validated and negotiated with the Contractor, our team will provide a recommendation for change approval to the City. We will make sure that the person with the correct signature authority reviews and signs off on the change. We will enter the change utilizing the City approved forms and format and deliver a final change packet containing the change order and all relevant backup information including the schedule with any potential impacts, the change order log indicating amount of total changes and remaining budget, all change proposals including negotiations and notes, and a lessons learned document that will be added to the issues and lessons learned database.
cumming-group.com City of Palmdale, Chimbole Center Library (Phase 1) Remodel & Renovation10 G. Schedule Control
Cumming Group understands that the community has been
without their cultural hub over three years and the residents are anxious to have their space returned, but with tight controls over the cost of the project since taxpayer funds are being used. One component of keeping costs controlled, is effectively managing the schedule. We utilize the latest software technologies, including Primavera P6, to develop schedules that are realistic and easy to understand. Our expertise includes development of master schedules, review of contractor’s detailed baseline schedules and monthly schedule updates.

Beyond schedule reviews, we also closely monitor the work to assure that schedules are maintained. We identify work slippages early and develop recovery schedules and mitigation activities. We also have expertise in developing “what if” scenarios to assist in developing the best approaches to schedule revisions.

Cumming Group will provide an independent assessment of the schedule and budget updates of the project to analyze performance for the City management team. Current budget and schedule updates are compared to the accepted baseline data to produce various variance reports. Our schedule control staff keeps the entire City project team informed of budget tracking, schedule performance, actual to date costs, and the estimate of cost to complete. Cumming Group uses Earned Value Management (EVM) to allow the project team to know the actual state of the project by comparing the current project performance against original plan. Knowing the project’s performance will let us take actions needed to ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget.

Working with the General Contractor during construction, we will require timely schedule updates and review the
monthly pay application against the progress schedule prior to approving payment for work completed. When work falls behind schedule, we require recovery schedules that provide a road map for bringing the project back on track. Our team will monitor the schedule often so that the project stays on track.

Understanding the Contract terms and applying advanced
scheduling techniques is key to minimizing schedule impacts.

Too often time extensions and damages are assessed based on simplistic measures, such as robotically using the total duration of a delay for granting the number of days for a time extension. Our team of construction managers and scheduling professionals are adept at considering all influences on the project and its schedule to address the delay using a Critical Path Method (CPM) analysis. The CPM’s ability to accurately represent living, growing projects is what makes it ideal for determining how an event may potentially impact project completion. Our team of scheduling professionals will perform the following tasks to minimize schedule impacts for the project:
• Assist the City to build a master schedule for the project that identifies completion dates for various activities.
• Review and approve the contractor’s task-level baseline project schedule prior to executing the GMP contract.
• Review and analyze the contractor’s updates to the baseline schedule on a monthly basis with the submittal of the pay application.
• Require the contractor to submit a time-impact analysis whenever requesting a change to the schedule.
• Identify and classify the schedule change according to the contract:
- Excusable, Non-compensable Delay
- Excusable, Compensable Delay
- Non-Excusable, Non-Compensable Delay
- Non-Excusable, Compensable Delays
• Request a recovery schedule from the contractor when the contractor has been identified as the cause for delay.
• Enforce the liquidated damages clause of the contract when the contractor is causing a delay.

The case studies below demonstrate our team’s ability to apply creative problem-solving to maintain schedule while delivering meaningful cost savings for our clients.

Problem Solving Case Study 1
Managing Procurement Delays
Through Strategic Alternatives and
Schedule Optimization
On a healthcare facility upgrade project, our team
was faced with procurement delays for specialized
vault components due to nationwide supply chain
disruptions. We worked with the design team and
contractor to identify locally available alternate
materials and updated the submittals for expedited
approval. At the same time, we re-sequenced the
contractor’s schedule to complete adjacent work in
parallel, keeping the overall project on track without
compromising quality or scope.

Problem Solving Case Study 2
Schedule Recovery and Cost Mitigation
During Severe Weather Impacts
On the San Gabriel Valley Aquatic Center project, the project encountered an unusually wet rainy season during the
grading and excavation operations. The weather delays had set the project back almost three months while waiting for the saturated soils to dry. The contractors daily extended overhead rate would have cost the client a $250,000 change order. Our project management team and scheduling experts worked out a plan to increase manpower through staggered shifts and overtime, including work on Saturdays to catch up without any delays to the schedule. The change order for the overtime and weekend work was half the projected daily extended overhead rate change and this solution saved the client over $120,000.
