5.5 ON-CALL APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
Project Understanding
The City of Richmond is seeking to contract with professional services for special inspection and materials testing to provide services in support of Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Projects, Public Works maintenance projects, port infrastructure projects, wastewater projects, transportation projects, and other City related construction activities. Services will be provided on a task order basis ‘on-call’ or ‘as-needed.’ Services for testing and inspection will be subject to Richmond Municipal Code requirements, California Building Standards Code, Caltrans Standards and Specifications, and all other applicable local, state, and federal requirements. Scope will be, but not limited to, soils testing, asphalt, concrete, steel, structural steel, masonry,
Smith-Emery has extensive experience with on-call and task order contracts – including with some of the largest agencies in the state including Caltrans, CA Department of General Services, CA Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, San Francisco Department of Public Works, and Contra Costa County. We understand the nuances of responding to task orders in a timely manner with responsive qualified personnel that are equipped and ready to go
Quality Control System
The ISO 17020 and 17025 accreditations earned by Smith-Emery ensures that our processes and procedures exceed the stringent requirements for providing inspection and testing services. The resulting product delivered by Smith-Emery is of the highest quality. Our processes and procedures are audited on an annual basis by an external 3rd party; in addition to this qualifying audit, our programs are audited internally and by various clients each year. The continuous improvement resulting from these audits translates into a continuously improving product for our clients. The full Quality Management System (QMS) documentation will be submitted upon being selected; the following sections are highlights from our QMS program:

To ensure that all testing and inspection reports are completed timely, accurately, and fully coordinated, Smith-Emery utilizes our proprietary system, SENow. This system is web-based for easy accessibility. The system generates a tracking number when a dispatch is assigned, or lab test requested which creates a reporting platform. The report is filled out in the system by inspector or lab tech performing the services. Once the report is completed and box checked “completed” an email alert is sent to Project Engineer and Project Manager. After the report is reviewed and approved, and all boxes checked, which can only be done by PE or PM, it is sent out to distribution. SENow is web-based and can be utilized by ALL team members, consultants and any subconsultants.

Tracking Open Items for Resolution
Smith-Emery tracks open items related by utilizing a list of non-conforming (NCR) items and maintaining it throughout the duration of the project, referred to as a rolling punch list. A rolling list is the most common approach to managing open items efficiently and proactively, thereby minimizing the likelihood of having to grapple with large number of NCR items at the end of a major project. A rolling list entails constantly verifying the work status throughout the duration of the project, with a rigid closeout schedule being assigned to each task. Finishing the project error-free requires planning, communication, and managing the punch list throughout the project. We use the list as a communication tool between the general contractor and owner’s project management representative to make clear what outstanding work or issues remain in the construction project. We review the list every day and note items in our daily and weekly inspection reports. | 7
Coordination and Communication
Smith-Emery has provided services on many high-profile, mega projects with billions of dollars of construction. We know successful outcomes depend on many factors. Each project is different, with its own personality and set of challenges. We realize when working on projects with so many elements of work being installed and several trades working almost on top of each other to meet milestones and maintain schedule without delaying the project is only half the battle. Communication will mitigate any misunderstandings. We identify areas where communication could break down and install guardrails.

Safety Management
Construction sites are dangerous places to work. There are always hazards that arise and continually change throughout the construction process. Safety management is the responsibility of everyone on the site. Smith-Emery sets out a safety plan for our staff at the beginning of each project before we step onto the site. Our driving philosophy is to send everyone home at the end of the day as safely as they arrived at the site at the beginning of their shift. Once our plan is set out, we distribute it to our staff as they are assigned to a project. The plan must be reviewed and signed. We hold tailgate safety refreshers before each shift. Company-wide we distribute safety information and topics on a bi-weekly basis.

Estimating, Scheduling and Phasing
Smith-Emery Laboratories’ approach to every project is the realization that we are a part of a much larger project team and that all stakeholders are treated fairly and with respect. Ultimately, the goal of the team is to provide the owner with a product that meets or exceeds the quality standards outlined in the project specification. Smith-Emery would ensure the project team meets the standards by deploying our highly trainedpersonneltobothfieldandmanufacturing facilitiesacross theglobetoperform a variety of tasks from materials source sampling, performing pre-construction audits, and performance of on-site Special Inspection. Smith-Emery Special Inspection teams are backed by our Laboratory Division that offer more than 1,500 unique tests from environmental to materials compliance testing. The keys to our approach are the following areas:

Develop Project Compliance Plan
The project team at Smith-Emery will develop a Project Compliance Plan (PCP) that is unique to each project and addresses the specific challenges involved with the project. Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) risk factorsareassessedforeachtentativelocationfortheproject. The complianceplan will also involve a review of all known stakeholders, subcontractors, and vendors to evaluate potential conflicts of interest. SmithEmery Internal Audit will review contract documents and assess our firm’s ability to meet the project requirements.

Project Requirements and Specification Review
Prior to beginning each task, our Project Manager will review the project requirements and specification for every task order issued to Smith-Emery Laboratories. The Project Manager will develop a resource schedule for the duration of the task to ensure all required testing and inspection requirements are performed by our team. If there are any tests or inspections listed in the project specification that appear to be erroneous, our Project Manager will communicate with the project team to clarify the requirement so that project funds are committed to a superfluous test/inspection. The Project Manager team will also develop a comprehensive budget for each task order based on the required testing and activityduration. Control of the schedule leads to control of the budget.
