5.6 | ON-CALL APPROACH AND METHODOLODY

UNDERSTANDING OF CITY NEEDS
With more than 30 years of experience
providing special inspection and materials
testing for municipal and infrastructure
projects throughout the Bay Area, ISI
understands the demands of this on-call
contract. The City of Richmond needs a
responsive partner that can quickly adapt to
varying project scopes, from a single
inspection or materials test to ongoing
support for major capital improvement
projects while maintaining consistent quality,
communication, and accountability.

Our approach begins by providing a
dedicated Project Manager who reviews each
project scope, schedule, specifications, and
inspection and testing requirements, then
mobilizes the appropriate qualified, multicertified personnel and resources. We work closely with City staff, contractors, and other
project stakeholders to maintain compliance,
identify and resolve issues in the field, and
keep the project moving. Our experience
supporting municipalities under tight
schedules and changing conditions allows us
to provide practical, dependable support
when and where the City needs it.

QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES
ISI’s QA/QC program begins with dispatch,
where GreenBox is used to assign qualified
inspectors based on the required scope,
certifications, and experience. Inspectors
receive the project and inspection details in
advance and, upon arrival, review the
approved plans and specifications before
performing the required work.

Non-conforming items are brought to the
contractor’s attention immediately and,
when possible, corrected while the inspector
is on site. Issues that cannot be resolved are
documented in a Non-Conformance Report
(NCR) and distributed to the contractor,
owner’s representative, and ISI Project
Manager for tracking and follow-up. Field
reports are completed and distributed
promptly, with all inspection reports, test
results, NCRs, and weekly reports maintained
in GreenBox for 24/7 access.

Project Managers review field
documentation and test results for
completeness, consistency, and compliance
before weekly reports are finalized. Failed
tests, discrepancies, and outstanding items
are communicated promptly to the
appropriate project representatives. At
project closeout, an ISI Engineer reviews the
inspection records to confirm required
testing and inspections are complete and
work conforms to the plans, specifications,
and applicable codes before issuing a Final
Affidavit, when requested.

REPORTING METHODS
As previously mentioned, ISI uses GreenBox,
our proprietary cloud-based system, to
provide timely and organized project
reporting. GreenBox connects dispatch, field
reporting, laboratory results, photographs,
and project documentation in one secure,
Request for Proposal
On-Call Materials Testing and
Special Inspection Services
City of Richmond | 12
24/7-accessible platform. Inspectors use
company-issued iPads to complete reports in
the field, attach photographs, and document
inspection results before leaving the site.

Reports and laboratory results are then
uploaded to GreenBox and can be
distributed immediately by email or accessed
through the secure client website. GreenBox
also automatically compiles field reports into
weekly reports and distributes them to the
designated project team.

GreenBox also provides real-time tracking of
non-conforming work and project activity.

When an NCR is issued, the appropriate
project representatives are notified
immediately, while ISI’s Lead Special
Inspector tracks the item through resolution
and closeout. Project Managers can monitor
inspection activity, budgets, invoices, and
outstanding issues through the system,
allowing them to identify potential problems
early and communicate them to the client.

COORDINATION PROCEDURES
Each project is coordinated through an ISI
Project Manager who serves as the primary
point of contact and works with the project
team. Prior to mobilization, ISI confirms the
scope of work, required testing or inspection,
site location, schedule, access requirements,
and any project-specific procedures. During
construction, our staff maintains
communication with the project team
regarding upcoming work, changes in
schedule, outstanding items, and special
inspection and materials testing
requirements.

SCHEDULING & RESPONSIVENESS
With extensive experience working on
municipal and public works projects, ISI
understands the need for thorough
inspection and testing, flexibility in the field,
and coordination that keeps projects
moving. We assign experienced, multicertified Special Inspectors based on each project’s scope and complexity and maintain
staffing flexibility to respond efficiently to
changing needs.

We typically request 24-hour advance notice
but can often respond within hours due to
our local office and laboratory. Our dispatch
line is staffed from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM by
knowledgeable dispatchers who coordinate
inspections, sample pickups, and deliveries
and work to accommodate short-notice
requests whenever possible

SAFETY PROCEDURES
Safety is integrated into every ISI field
assignment. Our personnel follow applicable
OSHA requirements, site-specific safety
plans, and City and contractor safety
procedures. Before entering a site, inspectors
identify potential hazards, site access, traffic
control, excavation, and other projectspecific requirements.

Special Inspectors are authorized to report
unsafe conditions and immediately notify the
appropriate project representative when a
safety concern affects their work. Ongoing
communication between field staff and
project management helps ensure changing
site conditions are addressed throughout
construction.

Operating Engineers Local Union No. 3,
providing access to additional qualified
personnel when required. This staffing depth
allows ISI to support multiple concurrent
projects and respond to accelerated
schedules, overtime, and weekend work
while maintaining the appropriate level of
qualified coverage.

AVAILABILITY AND RESPONSE
As previously metnioned, ISI typically
requests 24-hour advance notice for
inspections and testing, however, our local
Berkeley office and laboratory allow us to
respond to many requests within hours when
needed. Our dispatch line is staffed from 7:00
AM to 5:30 PM by dedicated personnel who

ISI’s Berkeley headquarters and 10,000 SF
full-service accredited materials testing
laboratory is approxiametly 8 miles away
from the City of Richmond’s facility offices
which will minimize travel and dispatch time
for field personnel. ISI provides a full scope
of service and does not anticipate the need
to utilize any subcontractors for this on-call.

ISI maintains sufficient in-house personnel to
support multiple projects concurrently. If a
specialized service is required, ISI can
supplement its team with qualified personnel
and trusted specialty subcontractors.

This combination of experienced personnel,
local resources, centralized dispatch, and
flexible staffing allows ISI to provide the City
of Richmond with reliable coverage for
routine, short-notice, and emergency
inspection and testing needs.

2. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE:

Contractor and the City agree that time is of the essence regarding the performance of this Contract.

3. STANDARD OF CARE:

Contractor agrees to perform all services hereunder in a manner commensurate with the prevailing standards of like professionals or service Contractors, as applicable, in the San Francisco Bay Area and agrees that all services shall be performed by qualified and experienced personnel who are not employed by the City.

6. CITY PROPERTY:
a. Each and every report, draft, work product, map, record, applicable plans, drawings, calculation, data, specification, video, graphic, or any other material or document produced, prepared or caused to be prepared by Contractor pursuant to or in connection with this Contract shall be the exclusive property of the City. b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not be obligated to provide to City proprietary software or data which Contractor has developed or had developed for Contractor's own use; provided, however, that Contractor shall, pursuant to Section 11 below, indemnify, defend and hold the City harmless from and against any discovery or Public Records Act request seeking the disclosure of such proprietary software or data. c. No report, information or other data given to or prepared or assembled by Contractor pursuant to this Contract shall be made available to any individual or organization by Contractor without prior approval of the City Manager or their designee. d.

b. All Records shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be clearly identified and readily accessible. Contractor shall provide free access to the Records to the representatives of the City or its designees during regular business hours upon reasonable prior notice. The City has the right to examine and audit the Records, and to make copies or transcripts therefrom as necessary, and to allow inspection of all proceedings and activities related to this Contract. Such Records, together with supporting documents, shall be kept separate from other documents and records and shall be maintained by Contractor for a period of five (5) years after receipt of final payment.

Contract No: ________ For the Contract between the City of Richmond and
_____________________________
c. If supplemental examination or audit of the Records is necessary due to concerns raised by the City’s preliminary examination or audit of records, and the City’s supplemental examination or audit of the records discloses a failure to adhere to appropriate internal financial controls, or other breach of this Contract or failure to act in good faith, then Contractor shall reimburse the City for all reasonable costs and expenses associated with the supplemental examination or audit.

9. TERMINATION:
a. Termination Without Default. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the City may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without cause, terminate this Contract at any time prior to completion by Contractor of the project or services hereunder immediately upon transmission of written notice to Contractor as provided in Exhibit C “Authorized Representatives and Notices”.
b. Termination in the Event of Default.

Additionally, in the event of such termination, the City may proceed with the work in any reasonable manner it chooses.

10. CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

Contractor acknowledges, represents and warrants that Contractor shall avoid all conflicts of interest (as defined under any federal, state or local statute, rule or regulation, or at common law) with respect to this Contract. Contractor further acknowledges, represents and warrants that no City official or employee has any economic interest, as defined in Title 2, California Code of Regulations §§ 18703.1 through 18703.5, with Contractor that would invalidate this Contract. Contractor acknowledges that in the event that Contractor shall be found by any judicial or administrative body to have any conflict of interest (as defined above) with respect to this Contract, all consideration received under Contract No: ________ For the Contract between the City of Richmond and
_____________________________
this Contract shall be forfeited and returned to City forthwith. This provision shall survive the termination of this Contract for one (1) year.

11. HOLD HARMLESS:
a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, defend (with counsel acceptable to the City) and hold harmless the City, its City Council, boards, commissions, officials, employees, agents and volunteers (“Indemnitees”) from and against any and all loss, damages, liability, obligations, claims, suits, judgments, costs and expenses whatsoever, including attorney’s fees and costs of litigation (“Claims”), arising from or in any manner connected to Contractor’s performance of its obligations under this Contract or failure to comply with any of its obligations under this Contract or out of the operations conducted by Contractor even if the City is found to have been negligent. If the Claims filed against Indemnitees allege negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of Contractor, Contractor shall have no right of reimbursement against Indemnitees for the costs of defense even if negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct is not found on the part of Contractor. Contractor shall not have any obligations to indemnify Indemnitees if the loss or damage is found to have resulted solely from the negligence or the willful misconduct of the City. The defense and indemnification obligations of this Contract are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this Contract. b. This indemnification obligation shall survive this Contract and shall not be limited by any term of any insurance policy required under this Contract; provided however, that if this Contract is for design professional services, this indemnity provision is limited to claims that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the design professional (as defined in California Civil Code section 2782.8).

12. LIMITATIONS UPON SUBCONTRACTING AND ASSIGNMENT:
a. This Contract binds the heirs, successors, assigns and representatives of Contractor. The Contractor shall not enter into subcontracts for any work contemplated under this Contract and shall not assign this Contract, nor any portion hereof or monies due or to become due, without the prior written consent of the City Council or its designee.
b. Contractor shall not assign, sublease, hypothecate, or transfer this Contract, or any interest therein, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, without prior written consent of the City Manager. Contractor shall submit a written request for consent to transfer to the City Manager at least thirty (30) days in advance of the desired transfer.

The City Manager or their designee may consent or reject such request in their sole and absolute discretion. Any attempt to do so without said consent shall be null and void, and any assignee, sublessee, hypothecate or transferee shall acquire no right or interest by reason of such attempted assignment, hypothecation or transfer. However, claims for Contract No: ________ For the Contract between the City of Richmond and
_____________________________
money against the City under this Contract may be assigned by Contractor to a bank, trust company or other financial institution without prior written consent. c. The sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Contractor (if applicable), or of the interest of any general partner or joint venturer or syndicate member if Contractor is a partnership or jointventure or syndicate, which shall result in a change of control of Contractor, shall be deemed an assignment. For this purpose, control shall mean fifty percent or more of the voting power or twenty-five percent or more of the assets of the corporation, partnership or joint-venture.
d. Only those persons and/or businesses whose names and resumés are attached to this Contract shall be used in the performance of this Contract. However, if after the start of this Contract, Contractor wishes to use sub-contractors, at no additional costs to the City, then Contractor shall submit a written request for consent to add subcontractors including the names of the sub-contractors and the reasons for the request to the City Manager at least five (5) days in advance. The City Manager may consent or reject such requests in their sole and absolute discretion. e. Each sub-contractor shall be required to furnish proof of workers’ compensation insurance and shall also be required to carry general, automobile and professional liability insurance (as applicable) in reasonable conformity to the insurance carried by Contractor.
f. In addition, any tasks or services performed by sub-contractors shall be subject to each provision of this Contract. Contractor shall include the following language in their Contract with any sub-contractor: “Sub-Contractors hired by Contractor agree to be bound to Contractor and the City in the same manner and to the same extent as Contractor is bound to the City.”

SANCTUARY CITY COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
The undersigned, (hereafter "Contractor"), has had an opportunity to review the requirements of City of Richmond Ordinance 12-18 (hereafter "Sanctuary City Contracting Ordinance" or “SCCO”).

Contractor understands and agrees that the City may choose with whom it will maintain business relations and may refrain from contracting with any person or entity that provides Data Broker or Extreme Vetting services to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Division of the United States Department of Homeland Security (“ICE”).

i. The collection of information, including personal information about consumers, from a wide variety of sources for the purposes of reselling such information to their customers, which include both private-sector business and government agencies;
ii. The aggregation of data that was collected for another purpose from that for which it is ultimately used.
b. “Extreme Vetting” means data mining, threat modeling, predictive risk analysis, or other similar services."
Contractor understands that it is not eligible to receive or retain a City contract if at the time the Contract is executed, or at any time during the term of the Contract, it provides Data Broker or Extreme Vetting services to ICE.

Contractor further understands and agrees that Contractor's failure to comply with the SCCO shall constitute a material default of the Contract and the City Manager may terminate the Contract and bar Contractor from bidding on future contracts with the City for five (5) years from the effective date of the contract termination.

By executing this statement, Contractor certifies that it complies with the requirements of the SCCO and that if at any time during the term of the Contract it ceases to comply, Contractor will promptly notify the City Manager in writing. Any person or entity who knowingly or willingly supplies false information in violation of the SCCO shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a $1,000 fine.

Based on the foregoing, the undersigned declares under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing is true and correct.
