Project Management Work Plan Process and Methodology
Our Project Manager, Mr. Jose Guedes, TE, and key task leaders are intended to serve in their respective roles throughout the duration of the agreement. ADVANTEC has significant experience working on simultaneous tasks for clients under as-needed contracts and on multiple tasks associated with larger projects. This is the nature of our business, and Mr. Guedes has demonstrated his ability to manage and maintain budgets and schedules working on concurrent projects. Mr. Guedes will be the primary point of contact for the City. He will be supported by experienced California registered Civil and Traffic Engineers and other qualified professionals capable of managing day-to-day tasks under this contract.

Typical Project Methodology
ADVANTEC’s approach providing professional
consultant services is based on years of
project experience completing On-Call Traffic
Engineering Services for public agencies
across California. Through this experience we
have developed a logical, efficient approach
that blends basic principles of traffic,
transportation, and civil engineering with our
fresh, creative thought process. Our
methodology approach will provide us with
cost control measurements, development of
quality products, and ability to meet the task
order or project schedule. In addition, our
methodology approach provides the entire
team with our communication, cooperation,
commitment, responsiveness, and
requirement process on each project or task order. The graphic on the previous page illustrates our process once a task order is requested. One key element to our success is communication with the City’s Project Manager from task order beginning to end to make sure that the City stays current on design issues. We understand the importance of responding quickly so that accurate decisions can be made. Recognizing that each project will 351

City of Placentia

develop its own challenges and unique tasks based on location, and that the breadth of study area and design issues will vary from project to project, we generally follow a similar approach when initiating a project task:
1) Understand the City‘s Goals: In order to be successful on any project, it is vital that the Project Manager and Task Leaders understand the final product. We will meet with City staff to learn what the important issues are on each task order. We will understand the budget, schedule, and scope of work before planning the project so that we can begin to formulate a detailed scope of work and identify critical path issues. 2) Prepare a Detailed Work Plan: We will define all project tasks, their relationship with one another, and their associated time frame for completion. We will develop a list of needs so that we can identify specialized expertise that may be required to maintain schedule and complete tasks. Budgets will be established for each task to ensure that the project team stays on track. We will provide City staff with a detailed Project Schedule.

In addition, we will provide the City with our Project Management Plan, Quality Control/Quality Assurance Plan, and Resource Plan.

Project Execution
Following notice to proceed, we will coordinate resources, oversee the completion of technical tasks, and keep the project team and stakeholders informed of the project’s status and any new findings. Our Project Manager will continuously monitor the project’s progress, budget, and schedule to identify areas requiring attention. Virtual meetings will be held with the City’s project manager and key stakeholders on a monthly basis to identify issues early and keep everyone informed of the project’s status. ADVANTEC uses various project management tools that will give all team members and City staff access to archived deliverables, milestone schedules, to-do lists, and a history of project communications — further fostering a collaborative working environment.

Final Project Delivery and Closeout
As each project or task order ends, the Task Leaders will confirm that all final deliverables have been provided.

These include all digital files and hard copies in the City’s preferred format. Final invoices will be processed quickly to facilitate contract administration.

Experience Working with Concurrent Task Assignments

key personnel and support staff have similar management, planning and design experience; therefore, we are able to work on concurrent tasks, and have the flexibility to bring other staff together to meet project deliverables.

Innovative Approaches
A strong project management and communication plan is critical to contract/project success. Providing access to the right team at the right time is essential to any on-call contract. Through experience on other on-call contracts, we will provide seamless execution on each and every project or task order. Our project management communication plan establishes the chain of command for the team involved in any and all task orders, providing well-defined roles and responsibilities. Our Project Manager, Mr. Jose Guedes, TE, is the single point of contact for all task order initiation and contract discussions. The Entire Team is Highly Experienced in On-Call and Task Order- Driven Contracts. We understand the need to be responsive to the requirements of such contracts with fast mobilization, as demonstrated through our ability to complete task orders through previous On-Call Contracts with other agencies.

To ensure fast response with the right resources on task orders, our project manager will meet regularly with City staff to discuss upcoming projects or tasks that may require consulting services through this contract. Upon issuance of a task order, our Project Manager and selected ADVANTEC Team members will meet with the responsible City’s personnel to define the project scope. A detailed work plan will then be developed by the ADVANTEC team, reviewed, negotiated, and approved by the contract and/or project managers. This establishes the work parameters and defines the scope of work, schedule, budget, and deliverables for each task order.

As part of the project management plan, we ensure our deliverables are of the highest quality before being submitted to the City. They must initially pass our internal quality review process which consists of a series of separate internal reviews before any project deliverable is provided for review to a Client. Following the City’s review, the comments are addressed, and the process is repeated. ADVANTEC’s internal program to track progress, maintain quality control, and schedule are led and orchestrated by the Project Manager with all project personnel participating directly in the process as independent reviewers.

Internet Based Tools and Project Management Software
ADVANTEC utilizes the Microsoft Suite of software including OneDrive which provides online access for all software that we typically utilize, such as Outlook for email, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, others. We also use Ajera for project management and accounting software to track tasks and budgets.

In addition, ADVANTEC's latest strategy to maintain coordination, task order status, and deliverables is to create and maintain a file-sharing portal to be used for project correspondence, file transfer and repository, and schedule management. This helps all staff internally and provides a singular location where the City can go to find status on all task orders, action items, deliverables, outstanding items, schedule, and next steps. We are currently using Microsoft Teams on similar projects, which has been effective. We will discuss this platform and our options with the City prior to implementation.

Dissemination and retention of pertinent
reference information
 Establish process for flow of project documentation to key staff and document control procedures (e.g., scope of work, invoice/progress reporting, meeting minutes/action items, deliverables, etc.). 356

Proposal for On-Call Traffic Engineering Services
City of Placentia

Policy Approach
Expectations of internal/external Project
Team and design interface meetings
 Develop consistent meeting minutes, action item tracking, and issue resolution log format.

Expectations for regular “over the shoulder”
reviews by Discipline/Task Manager
 Define protocols for continuous review process during plan/document preparation to ensure multiple discipline involvement.

Inter-disciplinary coordination and shared
work elements
 Establish weekly or biweekly planning and design meetings. Inter- disciplinary exchange of plans prior to milestone submittals for joint review ensuring plan and work consistency.

Milestone checking of calculations, reports,
and plans
 Assign qualified, experienced independent review staff.  Perform checking, revisions and back checking in a coordinated manner considering standards, project scope, technical accuracy, format, presentation, and previous review comments.

Quality Control Review Checklists  Require all design disciplines to implement pertinent checklists in the preparation of project deliverables.

Our Ability to Meet Project Schedule and Budgets
Project controls provide the critical information needed to manage a Project or Task Order through to completion on schedule and to ensure that projects or task orders are completed within budget. The following project control measurements are used by our Project Manager and Task Leaders.

S CHEDULE C ONTROL - We understand the importance of a project schedule as a critical tool in the management of a project. There are several key elements that maximize the effectiveness of our Microsoft project schedule including:
 Information should be easily communicated and understood;  Commitment is obtained from each functional leader and the project team;  Inter-relationship of tasks is shown, including internal QC/QA and agency review periods;  Easy and flexible to update; and
 Office wide correlations of staffing and project commitments are considered.

Specific critical path items or key critical decisions that affect project deliverables will be identified on a continual basis to ensure the project schedule is met. We will promptly notify the City of any changes in anticipated project progress. This approach also allows the City to schedule staffing for their reviews in advance and avoid any rescheduling that would delay other projects.

B UDGET C ONTROL - The project scope of work will serve as the basis for the development of work breakdown structure (WBS) and the project schedule. A budget expressed in hours and dollars will be established for each task and subtask in our project cost accounting system (Ajera). Our Project Manager and ADVANTEC’s Task Leaders have real-time access to this cost data from his desktop computer enabling continuous monitoring of project costs. The WBS budget and schedule will be combined into a time phased budget to allow for measuring progress and comparing planned versus actual expenditures. Earned values will be computed for all activities and assessment of budgeted cost of work scheduled, budgeted cost of work performed, actual cost of work performed and estimates to complete will be developed. This data will be reviewed with our key task leaders to allow for continuous monitoring, identify early warnings of budget or schedule issues and develop required corrective actions to mitigate any potential schedule delays. A complete Monthly Progress Report will be prepared aligned with each task order and will describe work completed that period, work to be completed in the subsequent period and identification of significant schedule or cost matters that are of critical nature.

ADVANTEC's Experience and Approach to Perform the Work
includes: 1) Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) “Signalized Intersections – Informational Guide”; 2) NCHRP Signal Timing Manual, Second Edition; 3) the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD); 4) the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), or 5) Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). Each guideline uses slightly different metrics to consider left turn control, yet are similar in that they all consider the volume-to-capacity (v/c) ratio for the permissive left turn as a function of the opposing traffic flow.

ADVANTEC will prepare a level-of-service (LOS) analysis for existing and proposed conditions. The proposed conditions will be based on results of the left-turn phasing analysis. ADVANTEC will develop a traffic model using Synchro software, calibrate the model with the existing traffic signal timing parameters (from timing sheets provided by the City), and input the traffic counts in order to provide the LOS and operations analysis. Two scenarios will be analyzed for each project intersection: 1) existing conditions and 2) with protected left turn phasing during the AM, Mid-day, PM peak hours. A comparison analysis between these two scenarios will be provided that evaluates the difference between the LOS.

Based on the results of the LOS analysis, ADVANTEC will provide recommendations for the left turn phasing, and If additional deficiencies are found, ADVANTEC will provide recommendations to improve the signal operations.

A technical memorandum will be prepared introduction, purpose, study area, existing conditions, LOS methodology, LOS analysis, protected left turn phasing analysis, and recommended improvements (e.g. left turn phasing, and improved signal operations). The final format of the project report will be based on the City’s review and approval. We anticipate up to three submittals of the project report: one submittal of the draft technical memorandum, the second submittal to address comments of the draft technical memorandum, and the third submittal to address any comments of the final technical memorandum.

Engineering

Speed
Surveys

This E&TS updates will justify the posted speed limits and enable the local police department and law enforcement agencies to perform radar enforcement that is defendable by the court of law.

ADVANTEC understands that state and local agencies should conduct E&TS studies at least once every 5, 7 or 10 years, in compliance with California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 40802 to reevaluate non-statutory speed limits on segments of their roadways that have undergone significant changes since the last review, such as the addition or elimination of parking or driveways, changes in the number of travel lanes, changes in the configuration of bicycle lanes, changes in traffic control signal coordination, or significant changes in traffic volumes.

ADVANTEC will work with the City to determine the number of segments, speed survey, and ADT locations.

This survey will also incorporate the E&TS related support (requirements), standards, and guidance in California Manual and Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD), Section 2B.13., that includes, but not limited to:

Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS)
Support:
• CVC Section 627 defines the term “Engineering and traffic survey” and lists its requirements. • Take into account of AB 43 legislation and the latest CAMUTCD E&TS requirements.

Standard:
• An engineering and traffic survey (E&TS) shall include, among other requirements deemed necessary by Caltrans, consideration of all of the following:
