Subject: Downtown Parking Lot Improvements Project | CITY PROJECT NO. 230801 Construction Management, Inspection, Materials Testing Services & Public Relations Mr. Cervantes,
Fountainhead Consulting Corporation is pleased to submit our proposal to provide construction management, inspection, materials testing and public relations services to the City of Rialto for City Project No. 230801 for the Downtown Parking Lot Improvements Project.

Technical Understanding
The City of Rialto has issued a request for proposals for staff augmentation for construction management, inspection services, materials testing, and public outreach for their Downtown Parking Lot Improvement project. The project site is located at the North East corner of the intersection of Southside Riverside Avenue and East Rialto Avenue and is approximately 35,000 SF. All work relating to this project shall be done in accordance with the City of Rialto Standard Drawings, Standard Special Provisions and the latest edition of the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction.

The Rialto Downtown Parking Lot will be an asphalt paved public parking area with three ADA accessible parking stalls, thirty-six ordinary parking stalls, six facilities for future charging of electric vehicles, and two ADA accessible EV charging facilities, for a total of 47 parking stalls. Additionally, there will be eleven aluminum poles with 32 Watt-LED light fixtures and twelve planted trees post construction with irrigation lines to provide sufficient water.

The project is estimated to be 140 working days (which includes 90 calendar days for landscape maintenance) from the issue of the Notice to Proceed have been allotted to the contractor to complete the work. Currently the site serves as a public green with benches, trash facilities, and large trees, as well as a small parking lot of three stalls. Work will commence by the contractor to remove the trees and additional vegetation and excavate the site to begin the compaction process. All utilities shall be installed prior to paving the parking lot, including a 2” Schedule 80 PVC conduit with 1” PVC communication conduit terminating at the future EV location in a theft proof #5 pull box and 135 LF of 1” PVC Schedule 40 irrigation. The Engineer’s estimate is $850,000.

Compaction of the subgrade shall be compacted to 95% and confirmed by the soils engineer before the 4” of aggregate base, also compacted to 95%, is placed. The final surface layer of AC is not to be placed until all on-site improvement have been completed. Striping will commence upon the final 4” of AC, with a 90 degree parking layout of 9’ wide and 20’ deep parking stalls. Planting of trees and reestablishment of City of Rialto flags will complete this project. The contractor will also be responsible for 90 days of landscape maintenance after the final working day has been completed.

Mr. Art Cervantes, PMP, Engineering Manager / Engineering Services Department City of Rialto’s Downtown Parking Lot Improvements Project | City Project No. 230801

Public outreach throughout the duration of construction is essential to the success of the project. Notifications to local businesses who neighbor the project site and proper signage and traffic control will be maintained throughout all 140 working days.

Upon completion of the project, the City of Rialto will have a new public resource to its residents and offer a convenient option to park downtown. Residents will be able to patronize local businesses and access public transport while being able to safely and legally park their vehicles nearby.

Scope of Work to be Provided
Pre-Construction Services
Upon receipt of Notice to Proceed from the City of Rialto, our will determine the best method for quality assurance, specific to meet the needs and constraints of the project. This plan ensures adherence to the uniform quality assurance procedures. We include procedures and designated responsibilities for Project start-up, Project Organization, Defining Roles and Responsibilities, Risk Register, and establish lines of communications in a Communication Plan. During this stage, we discuss a Project–Specific Safety Plan for the Project Team.

Assist the City of Rialto in evaluation of bids received: The Fountainhead team assists the City during the bid process in conducting a pre-bid conference if required and with questions from bidders. The Team also performs complete evaluation of bids received including submitted unit prices with respect to the Engineer’s estimate and recommend award to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.

Prepare construction award package: We assist the City staff in reviewing the construction bids for Responsiveness and Responsibility by making sure the contractor’s bids are complete and the summation of all bid items are correct. Once a low bidder is determined, Fountainhead staff checks the contractor’s State license, Insurances, Bonding, and prior construction work references. When all checks are cleared, we assist in preparing the Staff report to the City Council for recommendation to award the construction contract to the lowest responsible/responsive bidder.

Prepare project instructions and establish proposed contract administration and record-keeping procedures to be used during construction for review and approval by the City Project Manager: Fountainhead’s general record- keeping process follows Caltrans’ for construction with approximately 63 file categories. In coordination with the City, we modify the process as directed to meet internal the City contract administration procedures while maintaining compliance with Caltrans Local Assistance Manual .

Establish outline of dispute resolution with Contractor’s methodologies, policies, and procedures: Alternative dispute resolution helps resolve disputes and potential claims to mitigate damages and maintain project schedules. The alternative dispute resolution processes are partnering, dispute resolution ladders (DRL), dispute resolution advisors (DRA), and dispute resolution boards (DRB).

The Fountainhead has experience using several of the processes on previous construction projects to address potential claims. “Potential Claims and Dispute Resolution,” as described in the Caltrans Standard Specifications helps to determine which alternative dispute resolution process is appropriate for the contract. Alternative dispute resolution processes must be set up and used in accordance with the applicable provisions.

Weekly and/or Monthly Owners Meeting: At Fountainhead we use meetings as a tool to coordinate between consultants and key stakeholders. Monthly, weekly, or as often as deemed necessary focus meetings are conducted to discuss and resolve issues promptly. The goal of all our meetings is to identify and discuss objectives, schedules, contract terms, related risks, and risk action plans. Fountainhead distributes the meeting minutes of all such meetings within 48 hours. Our meeting minutes include the identification of the party responsible for action on any particular item.

These meetings are held throughout the project life cycle.

Management Services During Construction
This phase includes construction administration, scheduling, resident engineering, site and source observation / inspection, utility coordination, public notifications, design support coordination, and materials testing coordination just to name a few.

Our construction management services shall be in accordance with the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual, and the Construction Manual when applicable. During the Construction Management Services Phase, the Fountainhead Team provides:

Coordination of Contract Execution: Upon NTP to the Contractor, the Fountainhead Team coordinates with the City to mobilize the field staff that administers the contract. The field staff consists of the Resident Engineer, Construction Inspectors, and Office Engineer. The Fountainhead Team also includes an array of specialty inspectors that can be utilized on an on-call basis as the project requires. As part of this task, the field staff establishes the project file system, conduct ongoing collaboration efforts with the City's Design Consultant, and coordinate activities commensurate with the Contractor’s operations.

Communication: The Fountainhead Team, as an agent of the City, communicates directly with the Contractor and the City. The Fountainhead Team reports to the City regarding the progress of the project and provides information as requested by the City for the local community and other agencies as directed by the City.

This consists of a written report detailing the construction schedule, budgetary status, traffic impacts, etc…. Our staff is responsible for the day-to-day communication with the Contractor and represents the City at the project site. We proactively resolve project issues that impede progress, coordinating with the City's Design Consultant, responding to RFls and reviews and coordinates approval of submittals, and ensure that the Contractor is complying with the contract documents. If necessary, our staff can represent the City in presentations at public events on behalf of the City.

Project Coordination and Correspondence: Our Resident
Engineer, Arezo Ghiam, PE serves as the day-to-day project focal point for coordination between the City, local agencies, the public, Caltrans, the project Designer, the Contractor, utility companies, and all other stake holders, as necessary. On all project issues, Fountainhead is the point of contact for the Contractor. All correspondence relating to the project are discussed with the City.

We maintain close contact and confer with the City and Design Engineer prior to sending any significant or critical correspondence to the Contractor. Any coordination with other applicable parties are conducted, as necessary. Fountainhead conducts weekly meetings with the Contractor and any additional focus meetings as necessary to address the status of the project and resolve project issues. Our staff also evaluates and discusses with the City any Value Engineering Change Proposals (VECP) submitted by the Contractor. Fountainhead prepares and distributes agendas, minutes, and an issue list, as necessary.

Document Control: Two components at the heart of a successful project are effective communication and comprehensive project documentation. Although some small and short duration projects may be best served through manual use of the spreadsheet-based document tracking systems that have been in use for many years by a large cross-section of the industry, larger projects, with durations exceeding several months benefit from an easy-to-use, and industry standard document control system. Fountainhead recommends the use of electronic document control software called “Procore” to assist with managing submittals, RFI’s and correspondence.

Fountainhead’s document management system allows for networking between the Contractor, designer, construction manager and owner. This Web-based Document Control collaboration tool allows all participants’ immediate access to project documents through a web browser and is easily customized to fit every client and every project. Fountainhead uses Procore to manage (log, track, store, and retrieve) project documents in a timely and organized fashion for decision making purposes during any phase of the project.

Submittals Management: The Fountainhead Team reviews project submittals, such as the Contractor’s baseline schedule, Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), falsework plans, shop drawings, materials suppliers, materials sites, etc. Fountainhead also approves or recommends approval, subject to delegation of authority from the City, other documents requiring review and approval. Some submittals are reviewed by multiple entities such as SWPPP. Submittal distribution list developed during pre-construction phase identifies the parties responsible for review and acceptance. All submittals shall be logged in as they are received and are routed to the reviewing party.

They are tracked, based on review times, and followed up as they progress through the review and approval process. We continuously maintain and update the submittal log established at the pre- construction phase.

Requests for Information (RFI): Fountainhead receives logs, processes, tracks, and documents Project Requests for Information (RFI) and responses. The RFI log is continuously maintained and updated. The RFI Log identifies the parties responsible for review and response. Fountainhead Staff prepares responses to RFI’s related to construction issues in a timely manner and in accordance with the requirements of the Contract. All responses prepared by Ivan are copied to the City Project Manager for concurrence. Design-related RFIs and other RFIs that are not Construction related are routed to the appropriate parties and the City is copied on all such RFIs. When necessary, Ivan coordinates and conducts meetings with the appropriate parties to discuss and resolve any complicated RFIs.

Inspections and Records: Our team reviews the contract
documents and monitors the work full time to record the Contractor’s progress for conformance to the contract and reasonable applications and practices. Our inspectors are qualified and familiar with the items of work in which they are involved. In addition to monitoring the work, our inspection team performs audits of the performance and effectiveness of the Contractor on site and source acceptance quality control staff and testers. We include the results of these audits along with identified concerns and corrective actions taken in our monthly report to the City. Our Daily Inspection Reports (DIRs) include information regarding date, day of the week, weather, Contractor work force, contract work being performed, unusual occurrences, visitors, utility information, conversations with stakeholders, accidents, encountered safety issues and resolution, digital photos, SWPPP inspection and inspection and testing audits performed. We immediately make the Contractor aware of any non-conforming work found during daily inspections.

Material Testing: Fountainhead’s subconsultants, Ninyo & Moore provides Material Testing and Inspection services with Caltrans certified personnel and equipment. Ninyo & Moore’s scope of services will include compaction testing and structural concrete testing. We understand that the project will generally consist of construction of a new parking lot area located at South Riverside Avenue and East Rialto Avenue. The improvements include construction of asphalt concrete pavement over aggregate base, concrete ADA curb ramps, curbs, and sidewalks, landscaping, irrigation and biofiltration system. Ninyo & Moore prepares daily reports to document items observed and submits materials certification memoranda. Ninyo & Moore will provide the following scope of services:
• Project coordination, management and technical support including review of the project geotechnical reports, plans and specifications, work scheduling and distribution of test data. • Attendance at pre-construction meetings and as-requested field meetings. • Field Technician services to provide observation, sampling and testing during subgrade preparation and aggregate base placement. Field density tests will be performed to evaluate the Contractor’s compaction efforts. • Field Technician services to provide observation, sampling at the batch plant and observation and density testing for asphalt concrete (AC) paving operations. Field density tests will be performed to evaluate the Contractor’s compaction efforts.
• ACI Field Technician services for observation, sampling and testing of concrete including checking mix design, elapsed time, temperature, slump and fabrication of compressive strength samples. • Laboratory testing, including but not limited to proctor density, sieve analysis, sand equivalent on subgrade, trench backfill materials and aggregate bases. Hveem stability, unit weight, percent asphalt content, sand equivalent and sieve analysis on the asphalt concrete materials. Compressive strength testing on concrete samples obtained in the field. • Preparation of daily reports and test data sheets to document the items inspected.

Schedule Management, Progress Meetings, and Reports: Fountainhead staff reviews and approves, subject to the City’s delegation of authority, the Contractor’s CPM schedule. The team reviews the Contractor’s planned schedule for conformance with the specifications and for reasonableness of the sequence and duration of the activities. The Contractor’s 3-week look-ahead schedule, which is submitted weekly, is reviewed against the CPM schedule and progress is evaluated. The Contractor is notified in writing of any identified schedule delay or slippage that may have an impact on the overall project completion date. In addition, monthly schedule updates are reviewed for progress of work and any critical activities or logic changes by the Contractor. All updates include a narrative report and any delays and change order time impacts. Reasonable and logical time extensions are negotiated with the Contractor and reviewed with the City prior to inclusion in the CPM schedule. Fountainhead staff prepares and submits to the City monthly progress reports that include status on budget, expenditure, schedule, change orders, key issues, and upcoming work activities.

Schedule Mitigation Strategies: Typically, Fountainhead team members are intimately familiar with the work plan and schedule and do not encounter situations where we have been the root cause of a project delivery delay, however if we are the cause or even if any team member is the cause of a delay, we work diligently to develop a mitigation plan to get the project back on track. As a general rule we identify activities that were originally scheduled to be performed in series and modify the finish-to- finish relationship with a lag so that the activities can be worked on concurrently instead, saving time without costing client any additional fees. Fountainhead strives to perform quick turnaround of submittal reviews and RFI responses.

Mr. Art Cervantes, PMP, Engineering Manager / Engineering Services Department City of Rialto’s Downtown Parking Lot Improvements Project | City Project No. 230801

Payment Recommendations: At the start of the construction contract, a progress payment cutoff date is established with the Contractor.

Fountainhead also reviews and approves Contractor’s cost breakdown and schedule of values for all lump sum items. On or around the established monthly cutoff date, Fountainhead meets with the Contractor to review, discuss, and approve quantities applicable to the progress payment for the month. Discussion is based on
measurements and quantities calculated in the field, subject to the City’s audit and delegation of approval. Once all quantities are negotiated, Fountainhead reviews and recommends approval of the Contractor’s invoice with the City. The document is submitted to the City for processing and payment to the Contractor.

Change Orders Coordination, Preparation and Management:

Fountainhead receives, processes, tracks, and documents Project requests for Contract Change Orders (CCO) from the Contractor. A CCO log is established at the beginning of the Project and is continuously maintained and updated by our assigned staff. To the delegated level of approval, and under the City’s direction, Fountainhead determines the need, merit, scope, estimated cost, and schedule impacts to the project as a result of potential contract change orders.

Fountainhead also negotiates change orders with the Contractor as directed by the City. Once merit is established, our staff prepares change orders based on the Contract Documents and in close coordination with the City.

All contract change orders include a transmittal memorandum that identify the issue, provide background information, determine merit, and provide financial and schedule impacts. This transmittal memorandum is generally for the City review only and is not shared with the Contractor. All contract change orders are reviewed with the City. Prior approval by the City is obtained on all contract change orders.

Construction Safety: Fountainhead understands that there is nothing more important than the safety during construction. The Contractor has sole responsibility for compliance with safety requirements on the construction contract, but the Construction Management staff has the responsibility of monitoring compliance with their safety program and advising the Contractor of observed deficiencies. Fountainhead reviews the Contractor’s Injury and Illness Prevention Program and field activities on continual basis. All project team members are required to review, sign, and adhere to the project code of safe practices. Fountainhead conducts safety reviews, night safety inspections, and attend weekly safety tailgate meetings. The Fountainhead team is knowledgeable of the CAL/OSHA Construction Safety Orders and monitors the Contractor's work to assure that the public, the Contractor, and the Inspection staff is working in a safe environment.

Claims: Fountainhead’s construction management team
members have successfully managed projects without
Contractor claims. Fountainhead ensures excellent
communications and working relationships exist during the life of the project among all project stakeholders. Our team focuses on resolving issues at the lowest possible levels.

All issues are properly documented in detail and
coordinated with the City. Our staff acts in a timely manner, to avoid the need for the Contractor to file claims. If claims become unavoidable, the Fountainhead team can tap into
expert resources to eliminate or minimize impacts to the project’s cost or schedule. Claims that are submitted are thoroughly reviewed by our team and responses prepared
and coordinated with the City. An itemized claims log is established and status of each “Notice of Potential Claim” received from the Contractor is monitored and tracked as needed.

Labor Compliance: Labor compliance is an important part of the Construction Manager’s effort to protect the wages, health benefits, and employee labor rights on County public works projects.

Fountainhead coordinates with the County Labor Compliance staff to verify compliance with Federal and State labor laws by ensuring contractor certified payroll records are submitted and that said payroll records match our field documentation of various project personnel working on the project. We also be performing contractor employee EEO interviews and provide copies to the City’s labor compliance officer for their records.

Public Relations: The Fountainhead Corporation Outreach team is excited to get the opportunity to be a part of the City of Rialto’s Downtown Parking Lot Improvements project and gladly bring, once more, all of its experience provided by Public Relations Representative, Claudia Mejia, who has had the pleasure of working on the City’s Riverside Avenue Central Reconstruction Project and the J&K Auto Body Demolition project.

Claudia is familiar with the City of Rialto’s public, community and residents, and understands that addressing communication, written and verbal, to a diverse community will require for the community outreach efforts to be tailored in language, that is, in English and Spanish (and any other language that the city requires). This will allow Claudia to establish direct relations with impacted stakeholders by developing a proactive community outreach approach to ensure it serves the project’s diverse yet focused community in this area.

The proactive community outreach plan will keep in mind the 140-day project duration timeframe, including plant the establishment phase, and will include a grass-roots approach consisting of:
• Leveraging Branding from previous City of Rialto projects (as approved by the City), for a cost-effective approach including (all of these could be tailored to create a unique identity for the new project):
o A project logo
o Header
o Footer
o A new project phone number (as needed) to keep a single point of contact for inquiry assistance.
• Project Database – develop and upkeep a project database consisting of contacts for the required 300’/2-block radius, as stated in the project specifications.
• Collateral Material
o Factsheet
o FAQ (as needed)
o Project Location Map (as needed)
• E-blast – weekly/as needed construction alert eblast including project activities, schedules and mitigation practices due to any project impacts such as:
o Closures/Detours
o Utility Disruptions, as needed.
o Dust
o Vibration
o Traffic Control
o Flaggers
Additionally, Claudia will attend the pre-construction meeting, all weekly/biweekly construction meetings, to help the CM team proactively identify any impacts to the community in and around the project area, attend two community meetings, and document all outreach activity in a City-approved tracking system.

Mr. Art Cervantes, PMP, Engineering Manager / Engineering Services Department City of Rialto’s Downtown Parking Lot Improvements Project | City Project No. 230801

Claudia has gained knowledge and experience of the City’s notification practices (no less than a 5-day advanced notification notice) and will ensure all information being provided to the public follows these for successful communication and outreach implementation
Post-Construction Services, Project Close-Out
Field Inspection and Punch List: As a project nears completion Fountainhead staff walks the project and document all items of work that have yet to be completed as required in the contract documents. An itemized punch list of outstanding items is developed and handed over to the Contractor to be addressed. After the Contractor has completed all the items on the punch list, a final walk-through of the project site is conducted. If the City is satisfied that all the items on the punch list have been addressed, then the Contractor is given a letter of acceptance, and final payment is authorized. Fountainhead staff coordinates with all project stakeholders during final inspections to obtain their acceptance of the improvements as required by the City. Our certified biologist documents as-built conditions and perform habitat and revegetation monitoring, complete and submit the final compliance report to CDFW.

As-Builts: The Fountainhead Team maintains a full-size set of the project plans for as-built purposes. These as-built plans are modified to reflect what was constructed and includes any authorized field modifications by the design engineer, as well as any modifications due to approved change orders. All modifications are noted in red and, upon acceptance of the contract, are submitted to the City's Design Consultant for incorporation into the final as-built plans.

Project Close-Out: Upon completion of the work and after all items on the punch list have been addressed, the Fountainhead Team issues a letter of acceptance and formally relieve the Contractor of any further responsibility for the project. The project close-out phase includes:
(1) Resolving any outstanding claims and providing supporting information (2) Recommending approval of the final payment to the Contractor to the City (3) Ensuring that all liens on the project by the Contractor or Subcontractors have been released (4) Archiving all project records, including final materials certification (5) Prepare project close out documents for Caltrans approval (6) Assist the City staff during any audit performed by state or federal agencies (7) Perform the 1-year warranty inspection one month before it is due and create a comprehensive punch list and follow up with contractor and Caltrans to ensure the punch list items are adequately addressed to the satisfaction of Caltrans and the City.

The Fountainhead Team prepares project close-out reports per City Standards and Caltrans Local Assistance Manual to meet all funding requirements. For the Fountainhead Team, project close-out is an important aspect of the contract and is implemented in a meticulous fashion. At this point our Account Manager ensures that the project is 100% complete from both a construction and construction management perspective. In closing project files, the Fountainhead Team makes sure that all original documents are in the project files, and we encase all records in clearly marked storage boxes per the City policy.
