shall obtain and maintain, said E&O liability insurance during the life of this Agreement and for three years after completion of the work hereunder.

Neither the CITY nor any of its elected or appointed officials, officers, agents, employees, or volunteers makes any representation that the types of insurance and the limits specified to be carried by Consultant under this Agreement are adequate to protect Consultant.

(c) Other insurance: "The Consultant's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects the City of Placentia, its officers, officials, agents, employees, and volunteers. Any other insurance maintained by the City of Placentia shall be excess and not contributing with the insurance provided by this policy."

All issues are processed with a sense of urgency and presented to the City with suggested alternatives, cost and schedule impacts and recommended solutions.

RFIs Upon receipt, the CM will log, distribute, and respond to each Request for Information (RFI) as required. It is anticipated that most will be handled upon receipt. If the design engineer or any member of the City staff is required to answer questions, the CM or Inspector will coordinate a timely resolution.

Change Orders Each issue, which is identified as a potential change to the design, scope, cost, or contract time, will generate change notice. The CM will determine whether a change notice should be considered. The plans and specifications will be reviewed against the change notice. If the issue does not appear to be included in the plans or specifications, a Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be sent to the Contractor.

Force Account Daily Extra Work Reports Ardurra will verify and sign the contractor's daily extra work reports documenting force account (time and materials) work. Ardurra will monitor that only appropriate worker classifications necessary for approved time and materials work is included on extra work reports.

Claims Avoidance Ardurra will assist the City with claims filed by the Contractor in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the LAPM Section 16.15, the general specifications, and the standard specifications. Ardurra is well -versed at negotiating and resolving claims amicably between contractors and public agencies.

Schedule Review Ardurra's CM will review the baseline construction schedule including activity sequences and duration, schedule of submittals, and schedule of delivery for products with long lead-times.

Schedule Control During the progress of construction, the Ardurra CM will compare the contractor's schedule updates to the baseline schedule and any approved time extensions, note any shortcomings, and monitor and track corrections by the Contractor to keep the project schedule on track. If necessary, Ardurra will negotiate time extensions due to change orders or other delays.

Inspection Services Inspection services will include but are not limited to the following tasks and will be performed on a daily basis:
review and familiarization with contract documents, participate in pre -construction meetings, other meetings, and conferences, as required, be present always, including weekends when construction is in progress, review and in conjunction with the City's project manager, enforce the contractor's proposed construction schedule, monitor and document the contractor's compliance with plans, specifications, and referenced standards, assist in the review of "submittals" required by the specifications, assist with coordination between City's project manager, contractor, and any other entities that may be involved, review contractor performance, and expedite corrective measures for discrepancies as they occur, provide assistance and direction to technicians performing material tests.

Progress Payment Processing A cost control system, based on the approved schedule of values, approved change orders, and the contract amount, shall be developed and implemented to monitor progress costs.

Cashflow Management (Preliminary Notices, Releases and Stop Notices) Ardurra recognizes that the diligent monitoring and tracking of preliminary notices, conditional and unconditional releases is an important component of public construction management, City of Placentia
On -Call Construction Management and Inspection
20 enables the team to stay abreast of the construction contract cash flow and provides for excellent documentation of prompt payment as required by agency funding.

Labor Compliance Ardurra's Labor Compliance group's established program is a 5 -step process to capture, monitor, collect, investigate, and review through Cracker, which is a certified payroll reporting software. Our process of actively monitoring prevailing wage requirements, allows for real-time monitoring of the required documents, DAS140, DAS142, fringe benefit statements, monthly union status, CAC -2 Training Fund Contributions, express, and other requirements of the awarding body.

The Ardurra team will work proactively and cooperatively with the contractor to monitor and enforce the City's and funding agencies' requirements for labor compliance, as follows:
• Verify contractor and subcontractor eligibility through the State Contractor's Licensing Board, DIR contractor registration, and state debarred list.
• Serve as the primary contact person for labor standards issues related to state and federal labor codes. The consultant shall attend the preconstruction conference to provide the contractor and subcontractor(s) with contractor labor compliance handouts and to review the applicable labor standards requirements as mandated by State of California labor compliance requirements. • Inform contractors of the prevailing wages requirements. All services performed under the agreement will be subject to payment of the applicable prevailing wage for personnel performing the work. The submittal of certified payroll records will be required as work is performed or when they are needed to verify compliance with state/federal labor codes. Certified payroll submittals will be available for review by the City and directly submitted to the DIR.

QA/QC Ardurra will implement the City's established Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) as outlined in Section 16.14 of the LAPM for Non -NHS projects. Ardurra will coordinate QA/QC activities daily and review activities as they happen to make sure that QA/QC procedures are followed, and deficiencies are resolved in a timely and efficient manner. QA/QC is an ongoing task throughout the duration of the project.

Our strategic approach to a quality, timely, and cost -sensitive product includes the following elements:
• Understand the project.
• Select the right people for the project.
• Frequent communication and tracking of project progress are integral to our approach to make sure there are no surprises.

Utilize our project management tools that forecast staff requirements and labor allocations three months in advance. Proper documentation is critical for all projects and will comply with the City's requirements.

City of Placentia
On -Call Construction Management and Inspection
21 Testing and Observations The CM and inspection team will coordinate laboratory, jobsite, and offsite/source inspection and testing of construction materials and required observations per the QAP, LAPM, construction documents, construction codes, and Jurisdictional Agencies.

Project Closeout Ardurra will expedite close-out of the project according to the plans and specifications, receipt of close out submittals from the Contractor, and preparation of the required forms per Chapter 17 of the LAPM including the federal report of expenditures, report of expenditures checklist, final inspection form, federal aid final invoice, final DBE utilization report, materials certificate, statement of materials used by contractors, other supplemental forms, and/or backup documentation.

Pre -Final Inspection The CM and lead inspector will perform the final job walk and prepare the punch list (deficiency list). Ardurra will coordinate and observe completion of required corrections. Should the Contractor lag on a portion of the completion of project work, Ardurra will estimate the value of the incomplete items and recommend specific retainage in accordance with the contract to preserve the City s interest.

Final Inspection All corrections must be made before Ardurra recommends processing of the "Notice of Completion". Upon completion of the punch list and final sign off by all project stakeholders, Ardurra will make a recommendation to the City regarding the Contractor's final progress payment request and prepare final progress payment report for submission to the City.

Delivery of As-Builts and Close -Out Documents Ardurra will periodically review the Contractor's as -built updates on the approved job plan set, identify missing items, and require the Contractor to keep as -built records up to date throughout the project as required by the specifications. Ardurra will review the Contractor's submittal of "as -constructed" conditions and compare this submittal to Ardurra's own documentation. Discrepancies will be discussed, resolved, and recorded. Completed "as -constructed" plans will be submitted to City.

Ardurra's tools and efficiency in coordination, communications, and documentation provide the City with a transparent process for the duration of the contract.
