These services are required to augment City staff efforts to complete delivery of capital improvement projects, which includes professional services related to the design, construction management, and operation of public works infrastructure and City facilities.

The RFP was advertised on the City’s online procurement management and publication system, PlanetBids, with electronic proposals due on March 14, 2023. Twenty-eight responsive proposals were received and evaluated by a selection committee composed of PWA staff. Based on criteria outlined in the RFP, the top 15 professional engineering firms were selected. The following table summarizes the responding firms and their rankings:

RE: Proposal for On-Call Engineering Services (RFP No. 23-030) Dear Mr. Thomas and Members of the Selection Committee:

The City of Santa Ana (City) is seeking qualified consultants to join their list of on-call firms for capital improvement projects. Kimley-Horn is very excited for the opportunity to continue our partnership with the City. We have assembled a team that possesses the technical experience and local knowledge that can meet the needs and expectations of the City’s residents and stakeholders. We are confident our team can meet the City’s expectations for the following reasons:

Exceptional Experience and Resources. Kimley-Horn has provided similar services for many on-call contracts for municipalities and agencies across California, and we have developed an approach to making every project a success. Project manager Othman Elmezain, P.E. brings 11 years of experience in civil engineering, managing both small and large projects for clients throughout California as part of on-call contracts or as standalone projects. He will be supported by a skilled team of multidisciplinary engineers, planners, and analysts with experience in a range of fields, from traffic engineering and transportation planning to environmental planning and grant writing. We have supplemented our inhouse team with On Point Land Surveying, Inc., Bess Testlab, Inc., Twining, Inc., and Avant-Garde, Inc. to provide surveying, potholing, geotechnical and grant writing services, respectively. Our team works regularly with each other on a wide range of projects, allowing us to collaborate with the City efficiently and effectively on task orders without having to establish new lines of communication.

Strong Local Presence and Past Experience. Our team of professionals primarily work and live in Orange County and have completed recent work for the City, giving us the local knowledge and experience needed to complete your engineering assignments while coordinating with local stakeholders and regulatory agencies. Our team has worked on the 5th Street and Santa Ana Boulevard Bike Lane PS&E and the South Main Street Corridor Improvements PS&E projects. We will continue to bring the experience and knowledge gained from these projects to this on-call contract to ensure that our work will meet the needs and standards of the City’s residents and local stakeholders.

Communication and Responsiveness. We understand that the basis of a successful project is founded on responsiveness and adequate staffing. Kimley-Horn takes pride in having the responsiveness of a small firm coupled with the staffing and resources of a national-level firm. Our one profit center model allows us to shift personnel to various projects to ensure that we have the adequate number of staff with the skills and experience to successfully deliver on any project. In addition, our Orange office is less than five miles away from the Santa Ana City Hall, allowing us to attend project meetings on short notice.

Understanding and Approach to On-Call Services
Our approach to on-call contracts is based on developing a team-oriented approach to the project review process. Key characteristics that distinguish Kimley-Horn include:
• Rapid mobilization of staff for each task order request, including immediate identification of the key personnel and subconsultants needed for each project. The availability of in-house staff provides efficiency and consistent quality of the technical analyses • Ongoing communication and consultation to address issues that arise during the project review process. The collaborative process maintains project progress and results in user-friendly planning documents and legally defensible environmental documents • Commitment of senior level management to the project to provide close coordination with the City, to help confirm technical accuracy, and to carefully monitor budget and schedule compliance • Responsiveness to any significant issues of concern raised by responsible and regulatory agencies and the public
• Flexibility to tailor our approach to meet the specific needs of each project and client We tailor each on-call task assignment’s scope of services specifically to the needs of the individual project and the City. Our familiarity with local standards will help us determine what will be necessary to assist the City with each task order. We will approach each project in the same diligent and comprehensive manner including:
• Scope of work review and understanding
• Data collection and review
• Kick-off meeting
• Site visit with City staff
City Council 20 – 36 5/16/2023
13 GMOC77011.2023
• Evaluation of existing conditions
• Project evaluation and innovation
• Concept layouts and reports
• Interim site walk and review concept
layout of study findings
• Response to comments
Upon notice to proceed, the
appropriate staff will be
assigned by project manager
Othman Elmezain, P.E. to
accomplish the task within
the agreed upon timeframe.

One of the advantages that
our team provides is the
ability to assign the right staff
to each task. Our team can
draw from a multitude of
disciplines and resources to
complete each assignment—
whether the task is relatively
minor, requiring only a few
people in a single discipline, or a complicated task requiring numerous people and multiple disciplines. A task manager will be assigned to each task, and he/she will work closely with the project manager to get the project completed on time and on schedule.

A sample scope of services—including anticipated tasks necessary for successful completion, deliverables, and suggestions for the City—has been provided in Section 2. Scope of Services and Schedule.

Schedule and Cost Control
As our client references will confirm, Kimley-Horn has an excellent record of completing projects on schedule and within budget. We have a sophisticated Management Information System (MIS)—including software such as the CostPoint Engineering Accounting system and Microsoft Power BI—that allows our project managers to monitor budgets closely. Using the Project Effort Reports generated twice monthly by our MIS, project managers gain a clear understanding of the project scope early in the process to develop a realistic, well thought-out work plan. Once the work plan is developed with the stakeholders, the project manager communicates to the project team the key milestones and submittal dates— including time for QC reviews—as well as the importance of maintaining the established schedule and budget. This communication, along with teamwork and organization, results in successful projects and satisfied clients.

The best approach to keeping a project on schedule is to create a risk register whereby we:

1. Track each potential issue

2. Define the criticality of each potential issue

3. Identify the steps and dates for resolution of each potential issue This approach holds the team accountable and forms the basis for the sequence of steps each team member needs to take to reach resolution and keep the project moving forward.

Document Control
We utilize a redundant document control system in which both hard and electronic copies of project deliverables and significant project communications are filed and tracked by project number and key words. Our streamlined electronic filing system includes records of meetings and data shared; City Council 20 – 37 5/16/2023
14 GMOC77011.2023
documentation of design decisions; and data collected and/or provided by others, allowing us to quickly locate project records and respond to your requests in a timely fashion.

Quality Control/Quality Assurance
(QC/QA)
Since our founding, Kimley-Horn has aggressively
pursued a commitment to quality for every task,
deliverable, and service provided by the firm. We
see ourselves as an extension of client staff and
place tremendous emphasis on maintaining high
standards of quality from the inception of a task
through completion. That’s why we’ve developed a
QC/QA manual that every project manager and task
manager is required to know and use. In addition, for
every project, we assign a QC/QA manager to
oversee the quality control process. For this
contract, QC/QA managers Frank Hoffmann, P.E.,
Jean Fares, P.E., and Kevin Thomas, CEP, ENV
SP will provide quality control and assurance by
working with the project team programmatically for adherence to the City’s preferred design, reporting, and communication standards.

Our staff has the knowledge and experience to conduct preliminary studies, prepare stormwater management plans, and coordinate permit applications.

Utilities
Every project is unique and presents its own special design challenges; however, the most frequent challenge we face in local municipal projects is related to existing utilities. Most of the projects anticipated to be part of this on-call are in developed areas where utility facilities are currently within the proposed project area and any improvement will generally affect or be affected by the location of the utility facilities. Kimley-Horn believes in drawing the utility lines and features to their true size in our plans to aid in identifying conflicts early in the design phase; potholing potential conflict locations when budgets allow, which gives a better understanding of the locations of the existing utilities; and extensive coordination with the various utility companies. We also use three-dimensional (3D) modeling of utilities to identify potential conflicts in early stages of design. This method has helped us to avoid discrepancies between construction documents and actual field conditions that resulted in cost effective and timely execution of projects.

Electrical, Instrumentation, and Control Services
Kimley-Horn is a leading consultant in the electrical planning and design of power, motor control centers, motor starters, electrical panels, instrumentation and control systems, lighting design, and communication systems. Our team is thoroughly experienced in all the electrical engineering considerations that may be included in your project(s). Our vast experience allows our team to tackle projects efficiently and precisely in all capacities, ranging from leading large electrical-only projects to small support roles for multidiscipline projects.

Deliverables: Responses to RFIs
Task 21 – Construction Support
Kimley-Horn will assist the City during the construction period by attending meetings, answering contractor’s RFIs, reviewing submittals, reviewing shop drawings, conducting field observations and preparing addendums and clarifications. This also includes assisting in interpretation of bid documents, review of change orders and review of changed conditions in the field. We will prepare record drawings by updating the approved design drawings based on one set of redline markups provided by the contractor, project inspector or City staff. Independent verification of as-built drawings is not included in this scope. Significant deviations from the original design documents are not accounted for in this scope.

The purpose of the record drawings is to create a deliverable that will represent the built condition for the City’s records as recorded by the contractor.

The Kimley-Horn team has no control over the contractor’s or construction manager’s means, methods, techniques, sequence, schedule, and other activities. Kimley-Horn will provide its services during construction on a time and materials basis, and will notify the client prior to exceeding the budgets stated herein.

Consultant submitted a responsive proposal that was among those selected by the city.

Consultant represents that it is able and willing to provide such services described in the scope of work that was included in the RFP No. 23-030.

In undertaking the performance of this Agreement, Consultant represents that it is knowledgeable in its field and that any services performed by Consultant under this Agreement will be performed in compliance with such standards as may reasonably be expected from a professional consulting firm in the field.

1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Consultant shall perform the services that were described in the scope of work included in the RFP No. 23-030, during the term of this Agreement, the tasks and obligations including all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and incidental customary work required to fully and adequately complete the services described and set forth in “Scope of Services - Exhibit A”, attached hereto and incorporated by reference, and as further described in Consultant’s Proposal, attached hereto an incorporated herein by this reference as “Consultant’s Proposal - Exhibit B”.

4. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Consultant shall, during the entire term of this Agreement, be construed to be an independent Consultant and not an employee of the City. This Agreement is not intended nor shall it be construed to create an employer-employee relationship, a joint venture relationship, or to allow the City to exercise discretion or control over the professional manner in which Consultant performs the services which are the subject matter of this Agreement; however, the services to be provided by Consultant shall be provided in a manner consistent with all applicable standards and regulations governing such services.

Consultant shall furnish the City with original Certificates of Insurance including all required amendatory endorsements (or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause) and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsement Page of the CGL policy listing all policy endorsements to City before work begins. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive the Consultant’s obligation to provide them. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time. (ix)Subcontractors. Consultant shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Consultant shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors.

Reference: RFP No.: 23-030, On-Call Engineering Services Mr. Thomas,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit our Statement of Qualifications to provide On-Call Engineering Services. We value the relationship we have built with the City of Santa Ana through our past and currently ongoing projects. We are committed to providing the City with the same consistent, diligent, high-quality service that you expect and deserve, and have seen from Tetra Tech. Our project team is the right team to provide these On-Call Services for the following reasons:

Proven Expertise: Tetra Tech has been providing similar on-call engineering services for more than 35 clients in Southern California. Many of these clients are repeat clients as Tetra Tech has provided service and innovative solutions on-time and within budget. Our reputation as a leader in consulting engineering is validated by Top 10 ratings annually by Engineering News-Record. Tetra Tech consistently ranks among the top engineering firms. In 2022, Tetra Tech was rated No. 4 among the top 500 Design Firms nationwide.

Extensive City Water/Wastewater Design Experience: Members of our project team have completed more than 47 water/wastewater projects for the City since 1999. Our project team knows the City’s design requirements and standards, preferred materials, and operational preferences which will allow us to complete designs in the most cost-effective manner.

Local Staffing and In-house Capabilities: We are proud to be embedded with the local fabric of a community in which we live, work, and play. Although we can draw from a large pool of nationwide resources, our Irvine office has experienced staff ready to mobilize at a moment’s notice to meet the City’s needs. Tetra Tech can best serve the City on this on-call due to our ability to provide most of the key disciplines and services in-house, leading to an efficient and well-coordinated set of construction documents. We can self-perform the project planning, feasibility studies, surveying, environmental documentation, permitting, project design, bid support, construction support, and post-construction support tasks with top-notch professionals that have built expertise in civil works projects, City facilities, parks, and other related projects. This brings consistency and the ability to execute with no learning curve.

Dedication to the City: We believe our past 23-year relationship with the City shows our commitment to providing the City with high-quality service. We have been awarded repeat work with the City due to our quality and responsiveness as well as the trust formed with the City staff.

We assure you that the expertise, responsiveness, attention to detail, and commitment demonstrated on our previous work will be fully applied to this work. I certify that I have the authority to negotiate contracts on behalf of Tetra Tech, and I am authorized to make representations for our organization. Please feel free to contact me at (949) 809-5156, or [email protected], if you have further questions or requests for additional information.

On-Call Engineering Services
CIVIL ENGINEERING EXPERIENCE Lift Station Projects
For more than 15 years, members of our project team
have been involved in the design and/or construction
support services of more than 8 lift stations.

Tetra Tech’s experience in civil engineering design for public works stems from vast project experience in
Southern California over the past 54 years completing
projects for municipalities. We are familiar with design and construction constraints that are specific to the City of Santa Ana having completed nearly 50 task orders for the City in the past 5 years alone.

Flow Control Facility Projects
During the last 15 years, members of our project team
have been involved in the design and/or construction
support of more than 12 flow control facilities.

Our experience in civil design is relevant to the services requested in this contract in that the projects we have successfully delivered for public agencies include street design and widenings, intersection improvements,
signalization, drainage improvements, passive and
active parks, storm water quality and stormwater capture projects, utility improvement projects, and structural
design of bridges and facilities. This experience allows our staff to more effectively implement solutions that
are compatible with the goals of the City, including
budgeting, procurement, performance, and operation
and maintenance.

Reservoir Projects
Within the last 15 years, our team has been involved in the design and/or construction support of more than 60
water/recycled water reservoirs (steel and concrete).

The reservoir design projects utilize a combination
of our in-house structural and electrical teams along
with a geotechnical firm to present the best design
improvement to the client.

Water Quality and Disinfection Projects
During the last 15 years, our project team has
completed design of over 11 treatment (process/
membrane) facilities within Southern California, including design of disinfection facilities at over 10 well and/or reservoir facilities. With new PFAS regulation becoming increasingly required within the State of California, our engineers have become proficient in the design of the
latest treatment options available completing over 14
local design projects of PFOS, PFOA, TCE, TOC and
Perchlorate.

WATER/WASTEWATER EXPERIENCE
Pipeline Projects
During the last 15 years, members of our project team
have been involved in the design and/or construction
support of more than 300 miles of water and recycled
water pipelines. Tetra Tech deems pipeline projects
to be just as important as facility projects because
comprehensive research and design can mitigate field
issues. We believe we have a very proficient team that
executes these projects efficiently and successfully.

Structural Seismic Retrofits
Our in-house structural group has been responsible
for the structural analysis and design of water projects completed by Tetra Tech. This work has also included
numerous seismic retrofits throughout Southern
California. The seismic analysis includes a threedimensional finite element analysis, member stress analysis, and foundation stability assessment.

Sewer Relining or Rehabilitation Projects
For more than 15 years, members of our project team
have been involved in the design and/or construction
support services of more than 100,000 feet of relining
or rehabilitation of existing sewer mains. Tetra Tech
has extensive understanding of the temporary handling
of the sewage flow during the work as well as the
importance of detailing the bypass facilities within the construction plans and specifications.

Electrical and Controls
Our in-house electrical group has also supported the
projects done within the Irvine office, including utility, industrial, residential, commercial, governmental, and
military projects. Our teams work efficiently together to provide our clients with the most comprehensive design.

Pump Station/Well Projects
Within the last 15 years, our team has been involved in the design and/or construction support of more than 40
water/recycled water pump stations and 15 water wells.

We have developed a team, including a hydrogeological
engineer, that works efficiently and effectively together to provide our clients with the maximum capacity required.

Planning/Engineering Studies
For more than 15 years, members of our Project
Team have completed over 15 master plans and/or
hydraulic modeling, engineering studies within Southern California.

the largest benefit realized by
the Owner. Quality contract
documents clearly lead to
a larger number of bidders,
lower competitive bid prices
(due to increased competition,
the contractor has less to
assume and take the risk for, and a greater overall
comfort level in our design based on a long history
of successful projects), and lowest overall cost while
achieving a very high-quality end product (quality
contract documents mitigates the potential, and
impact of change orders, and sets forth a standard of
quality the contract must achieve).

PROJECT

MANAGEMENT

PROCEDURES
Successful on-call service contracts require a diverse
and highly talented team, made up of specific
engineering and design disciplines, as well as
responsible project management. No matter the task
that is being requested, each project requires:
• Delivering a project within budget and on schedule
• Coordinating with appropriate agency representatives
• Implementing a Quality Assurance/Quality Control
No two projects are the same, although many are
similar. The key is to utilize elements of work that
have been successful and can be appropriately
applied to your projects, continue to improve
construction efficiencies without lowering quality
based on contractor feedback, and maximize the
overall operational flexibility.

Plan to increase the excellence of the end product
• Teamwork development and meeting participation

PROJECT/COST CONTROL
For project development, Tetra Tech will use a
Project Management/Control System which we
have used successfully on numerous municipal
projects. The core of this system is a monthly Project
Management Report.

We feel the previous work that Tetra Tech has
completed on previous projects for the City are
examples of our quality product which has resulted
in a low overall cost for the City. We want to utilize
the experience gained from working on the previous
projects, and to continue providing the City with
exceptional services to assure that another project
is successfully completed to the satisfaction of the
City. It is this experience where Tetra Tech has truly
garnered the understanding and needs of the City
to support on the design and engineering services
below.

CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM)

SCHEDULES
Tetra Tech will approach the development of a
detailed work plan very seriously. The project team
will meet at project initiation to collectively determine the smaller work tasks required to complete the
major work activities as established in the Scope of
Services. A sequencing plan of these smaller work
tasks, using precedence format, will be developed
which in turn will determine the overall schedule.

The series of work tasks and resulting schedule
will be diagrammatically exhibited as a Critical Path
Method (CPM) flow chart. This flow chart, which
highlights the critical path, will be used to base our
determination of the intermediate project milestones.

TASK ORDER APPROACH
Every project has unique challenges and concerns
regardless of how similar it may be to previous
projects. To ensure the timely and efficient
completion of work, it is imperative to identify all
project specific issues during the development of

SANTIAGO PUMP S TATION MODIFICATIONS , Santiago Creek, CA The original Santiago Pump Station was constructed
at the bottom of Bond Basin in 2002. Four submersible
pumps, each with their own MCC, were installed with
varying power and head capacities to accommodate
large fluctuations in water elevation. Soon after
commissioning the station, three of the four pumps
failed. In 2011, Orange County Water District (OCWD)
installed the floating pump station that is currently in use.

In 2019, the last functional submersible pump failed,

Santiago Basin when the water elevation is above 240-
feet.

The OCWD identified two potential solutions to regain
pumping capacity when water elevations are above 240-feet: (1) Add two small pumps to the floating station and construct any necessary modifications to accommodate the additional pumps; or (2) Replace the existing larger pump drives with Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) and construct any additional necessary modifications that will allow the pumps to function within the configuration of the existing facilities.

The goal of this project was to provide a recommendation and prepare 65% plans on the optimal option to restore the ability to pump water from Santiago Basin. Preliminary evaluations of the options, included identifying the appropriate VFD and their potential costs; coordinating with the barge manufacturer for additional barge sections to accommodate the two smaller pumps; and working with the pump manufacturer to obtain potential costs for the purchase of two smaller pumps.

The Bolivar Park project consisted of an air-inflated
rubber dam diversion system to redirect all urban runoff and stormwater runoff from the Del Amo channel through a pre-treatment system to remove trash, debris, and sediment. A pump station and drainage pipeline will then convey the water into a large, buried multi-chambered storage/infiltration facility. The stormwater collected in the underground reservoir will be treated and used to irrigate the park’s landscaped areas. The system will monitor the weather conditions and the facility through a secured cloud-based system. The goal of the project was to not only help the City comply with the metals Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), as presented in the Los Cerritos Channel Watershed Management Program, but also provide additional benefits such as revitalized park infrastructure and augmentation of local water supplies. As one of the first cities to receive stormwater funding to support Caltrans with stormwater compliance units, the success of this project serves as a model for other agencies to follow.

separate it from the eastbound high-speed travel lanes on Culver Boulevard.

The regional stormwater capture project will maximize pollutant and stormwater capture by diverting dry and wetweather stormwater flows at a rate of up to 50 cubic-feet-per-second from two stormwater facility locations. Diverted stormwater flows are first sent to one of two pretreatment units to remove trash and sediments and then to a concrete underground storage facility capable of providing up to 8-acre-feet of storage. Stored water is pumped to the post-storage filtration system where it is polished for final pollutant removal before being returned to downstream storm drain channels and receiving waters. As an added benefit of this project, treated stormwater will be used to offset potable water irrigation demands on the newly constructed 58-foot-wide raised landscape median and at nearby Veterans Park.

The project design provides pedestrian and cyclist
improvements including new cycle tracks, bike lanes, bike routes, new and widened sidewalks with curb extensions, new traffic-controlled intersections, a new shared street connecting to the new Sixth Street Viaduct Arts Plaza, as well as green street elements.

In order to accommodate the project's short design timeline, Tetra Tech surveyors deployed immediately and performed an UAV/UAS survey of the entire project area. This allowed a preliminary base file drawing to be created to facilitate the pre-design report phase. As the design of the project evolved Tetra Tech’s surveyors and designers worked on a plan to only survey the necessary areas of the project, and only to the detail needed. Many portions of the project needed only striping improvements for which the aerial acquired data was sufficient. Others required striping and lighting. For those surveyors used GPS to locate and ID surface evidence of utilities. For areas of ADA access and critical drainage, survey crews utilize robotic total station and terrestrial LiDAR to capture design accurate grades. Data from the various forms of acquisition was combined into a seamless looking base file drawing to support the final engineering design.

the Work Plan will vary with the type and size of the
given task order. For small projects the Work Plan
may be a short memorandum which is distributed
by email to the members of the project team. No
internal kick-off meeting will be required for smaller
projects. For larger projects, the Work Plan will be
a comprehensive document which is distributed
and discussed at an internal kick-off meeting. The
kick-off meeting will include all key project team
members. The input of engineers and specialists of
other disciplines may be required in order to provide
comprehensive solutions to some of the tasks. Tetra
Tech has experienced staff in all required disciplines
who will address any situation that comes up.

However, to provide the City of Santa Ana with a
sense of our knowledge of project requirements for
the general types of projects expected under this
contract, we discuss our project understanding in the
next section.

DESIGN APPROACH AND

COORDINATION WITH THE CITY
The approach that Tetra Tech typically uses for
engineering design includes a preliminary design
phase and a final design phase. Prior to commencing
the preliminary design phase, Tetra Tech will lead
with support from the City a project kickoff meeting
to review the project in detail, discuss the project
approach, identify critical success factors, schedule,
budget and obtain project specific goals from the
City. During the preliminary design phase, the
Tetra Tech team will work toward understanding
the project and site location. The team will analyze
project design issues and base their design
recommendations to the City of Santa Ana on this
analysis. Lastly, the team will work with the City to
set a design course that will result in a 30% design
review package.

Task Order Authorization: Upon receipt of the notice
to proceed from the City of Santa Ana for a given
Task Order, Tetra Tech will schedule a project kickoff meeting or teleconference, update the Quality Control Plan (as necessary), and prepare a Health
and Safety Plan (if required).

Project Execution: The last and most important
component of the management process is to perform
the work. This component is not easily summarized
here because it is dependent on the type of work
required and the scope of work for each Task Order.

City of Santa Ana 22
City Council 20 – 101 5/16/2023
On-Call Engineering Services
After the City of Santa Ana completes their review of
the 30% design package, Tetra Tech will initiate the
final design phase. Tetra Tech will produce a 60%
design package, final Independent Design Review
(IDR) package, and then a Final design package.

The City will review each of these design packages,
and the Tetra Tech team will work closely with the
City to address comments, make adjustments,
and ultimately produce the final, approved, design
package.
design review meeting will focus on confirming the
project’s design meeting the goals and intent that
the City has for the project. The 60% review meeting
focuses on the constructability of the submitted
plans, specifications, estimate (PS&Es), geotechnical
report and other supporting reports and calculations.

The Final IDR design review meeting will ensure
that all City comments and concerns are addressed
prior to the design team finalizing the Final PS&E bid
package.

Design review meetings will be held after the 30%, Meetings will be attended at a location selected by the 60% and final IDR design level completion. The 30% City. Tetra Tech will prepare meeting minutes for each.

TECHNICAL APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
Having an adequate amount and necessary type
of resources are critical to the success of a project.

Inadequate resources can result in project delays
and/or poor execution of required tasks. Tetra
Tech is ready to provide support to the City with
our experience and knowledge to quickly resolve
technical issues and challenges. The Tetra Tech
team can provide the specialized expertise and the
depth of resources necessary to meet or exceed the
City’s variable project requirements. The depth and
breadth of our team’s technical expertise is described
in the following sections.

DETAILED DESIGN
Field Investigations: Conducting thorough field
reviews on projects is another critical component
of cost-effective project management. Tetra Tech
believes very strongly in walking our projects in
the field throughout the base mapping and design
stages of a project to insure all design issues are
considered. This task can be particularly important
on the City’s future projects due to the variety
of conditions that exist within potential project
footprints. Therefore, we will conduct thorough field

reviews of all projects, whenever possible, in order to Each project will dictate the survey necessary and obtain relevant site information. the level of accuracy. For example at a minimum for a project that affects the design and construction of a roadway, such as a Green Street or Complete Street
Project, survey data will be collected with very high
levels of accuracy. This may include, on a project
specific basis, the survey of each intersection,
including curb returns (BCRs/ECRs) and 25-feet to
50-feet beyond, traffic signalization (controllers and
signal detector loops), utility information, detailed
information of existing curb ramps to verify ADA
compliance and all other visual features. Along
roadway corridors, 50-foot cross sections will be
collected with additional cross sections included as
directed by the engineering team, the City or at the
surveying team’s discretion. The corridor survey will
include locations where sags, uplifts, depressions,
deficiencies and other irregularities are present. Site features including pathways, sidewalks, roof and site
drainage features, red curbs, house numbers will
be noted, driveways, parking locations, and utility
features (valve covers, manholes, fire hydrants, utility poles, guy wires, etc.) will be collected. As needed
damaged pavements, sidewalks, curbs vaults or
other feature will be noted at the time of the survey.

Surveying Approach: Our cutting-edge surveyors
utilize the latest in ground survey equipment to
perform topographic, boundary, right-of-way, ALTA,
GIS data collection and control network surveys. All
survey work is performed under the supervision of a
Professional Land Surveyor, licensed in California.

Tetra Tech surveyors utilize a combination of
GPS and Robotic Total stations to perform most
traditional surveys. Additionally, technologies such as Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), Vehicle mounted
mobile LiDAR mapping, aerial photogrammetry and
LiDAR, and terrestrial LiDAR scanning are available
to supplement the City’s survey needs. These
technologies, combined with traditional techniques
can increase efficiency and accuracy, while reducing
staff exposure to dangerous situations.

Our licensed surveyors can assist the City with
all surveying and mapping needs, including the
following:
„ꢀ Topographic surveying
„ꢀ Boundary surveying
„ꢀ GPS/LiDAR surveys
„ꢀ GIS base mapping
„ꢀ Right-of-way mapping
„ꢀ A LTA surveying
Prior to the detailed design, the field survey will be
visually verified by the engineering team.

Utility Research and Coordination: The locations
of existing utilities on a project site are critically
important for facility design, any subsurface
investigations, or any earthwork during construction.

Tetra Tech will obtain and research all plans

include researching whether any future utilities
are proposed in the project area that may require
accommodation through the improved area. When
appropriate (particularly before any ground-disturbing
activities on site), we will employ geophysical survey
techniques, or Dig-Alert type services to physically
locate any subsurface utility lines. Tetra Tech will
perform a field review of all utility line locations and verify that the plotted or surveyed locations for all
existing lines shown on drawings are correct.

Tetra Tech will coordinate with the utility purveyors
to obtain concurrence on the relocation and/ or
protection strategies. In this way, we can avoid
piecemeal work or moving a utility twice. If the
relocation design is to be prepared by the utility
owner (e.g., SCE), we will monitor and track their
design progress with the schedule. We will employ
our proven methodology to notice, catalogue, plot,
track, and coordinate utility impacts. Tetra Tech will
develop accurate substructure and utility maps to be

KEY PERSONNEL
Miguel Hernandez has more than 25 years of experience in Public Works and is proficient with the design of streets, highways, sewer, water, storm drain, grading, hydrology and hydraulics. His experience combined with his ability to communicate will make him a valuable asset to a project. As a Project Manager he will be helpful in coordinating all design inclinations and finding the appropriate balance. When critical deadlines need to be met his proven ability to work under pressure will be invaluable.

RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Mojave Solar Project - Hinkley, CA
Ensure all construction work conformed to applicable LORS, coordinated traffic detour plans, reviewed QSP activities, prepared documents to initiate revisions to approved drawings, responsible for work load reports and monitored progress of construction schedule. The project moved over 750,000 CY of soil during the grading activities that required coordination with survey crews and grading contractor.

To protect the site from large storm events and balance dirt moving activity 18,000 LF of channel were cut. The solar plant included rehabilitation of six existing water wells and drilling of four new water wells. Six existing water wells were used for construction water. After construction, two large existing wells were retrofitted and connected to four new water wells to provide water for domestic and power plant use. The two power plants included four water tanks total.

Farragut Avenue Improvements - Moreno Valley, CA
Hernandez was the Project Manager for improvements that included sidewalk, curb, gutters, driveways, drainage, access ramps, utility adjustments, short property walls, missing street lights, pavement repairs, and accommodation of upgraded water line (built in advance by BSMWC) in order to enhance safety and accessibility for commuters and pedestrians on Farragut Avenue from Sherman Avenue to Ellsworth Street.

Jeffrey Road/Portola Parkway Street Improvements - Irvine, CA Hernandez was the Project Manager for the civil design and survey of a new alignment of 1.5 miles of Jeffrey Road and 1.0 mile of Portola Parkway. Work included roadway rehabilitation, electrical conduits, cable/telephone improvements, right-of-way engineering, potholing, and grading. Work also included preparation of infrastructure plans, including storm drain design, 72-inches to 10-inches in diameter over 10,000 feet of pipe, hydrology and hydraulic calculations, sewer plans, dry utilities, specifications, and construction cost estimates. Jeffrey Road and Portola Parkway were designed for a six-lane highway with raised medians, new curb and gutter to replace open ditch channels, pedestrian undercrossing.

Cerritos Avenue Gap Closure - Anaheim, CA
Hernandez was the Project Manager for this project located on Cerritos Avenue from Euclid Street to approximately 600 feet east of Euclid Street. The project constructed a five foot wide ADA compliant sidewalk and new storm drain laterals with catch basins. The work also included the construction of block walls and fences. The new sidewalk eliminates the need for pedestrians to walk along the side of the road. Cerritos is designated as a four lane secondary arterial by the County’s Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH) with average daily traffic of 9,400 vehicles per day. The project will provide a safer and better access for the school children and pedestrians in general. The services included right of way acquisition.

6 City of Santa Ana Civil Engineering Services: RFP 23-030 Our QA/QC program sets a procedure that ensures all deliverables. As an ISO 9001:2015 compliant firm, the Quality Management Program serves as the foundation for continuous improvement in all aspects of our work. For our staff Quality Assurance is more than just a program that ensures proper internal review and documentation. It is a frame of mind with which we approach our work. The procedure will help us deliver high quality plans at 30%, 60%, and final submittal.

Our quality assurance program comprises all activities necessary to ensure that projects perform according to expectations.

The QA program places emphasis on planning control, design control, computer software control and records. We institute our QA program through early involvement of experienced members. This process begins with our proposal, is formalized by project kick off, and continues through project close out via our coordination. The program will ensure that an acceptable level of quality is achieved and maintained in each design.

We are proposing a highly-specialized team of registered professionals with a history of delivering on similar projects. A team with a bench strength unmatched in the industry. Our project manager will be assisted by the principal-in-charge and supported by key personnel. The staff we are committing is organized so that redundant leadership is available in critical aspects of design. Our team offers additional value because it will rigorously analyze a design to provide sustainable cost effective solutions.

ADVANCEDESIGN – To effectively incorporate advance innovative designs into projects, it is imperative to select a team that has been properly prepared. Our team approach will explore design from all sides, meet challenges from new angles, and help uncover perspectives that are often overlooked. Our design process is interactive and responsive. It engages all stakeholders relevant to the success of the project. We have assembled the right team!

At the proposal stage overall project direction is determined, the strategy for project is specified, and general methodology is developed.

Milestones are set with measurable timelines for checking progress on budget and scope completion. After award, our project manager prepares a project specific Work Plan. The Project Work Plan adds detail to the proposal scope of work, identifies the project team assignments and responsibilities, the project budget and schedule, and information regarding design criteria, inputs and constraints for the project. The Plan also specifies the governing design codes, guidelines and CAD standards.

Work Breakdown Structure - Huitt-Zollars will develop a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) that identifies specific tasks needed to accomplish the proposed scope of services. We will determine the level of effort required for each discipline to complete each task under the WBS. This effort is used to establish the proposed compensation for the project and helps overcome potential budget challenges.

Detailed Project Schedule – Several characteristics comprise our approach to developing and maintaining a realistic schedule. This starts with participation of the entire project team. It is imperative that the schedule be sensitive to the demands of every discipline and client review periods. A schedule must account for stakeholder considerations and include time contingencies for resolving unforeseen variables. Our PM is assigned the responsibility of developing and tracking the project schedule. Our WBS format allows our PM to review budgets against associated milestones. We require that the PM update the Principal with project progress weekly. This results in a sense of urgency that will benefit each project.

Quality project delivery can be impacted by many things. However, there are five areas that will demand our focus.

We will design both projects A and B as the City intended to design them. This will be accomplished by listening and clearly understanding your expectations. We will confirm our understanding in our negotiated scope and verify that we are on track by conducting design review meetings on a regular basis from planning through final design. » We will design projects as the City intends to design them. This will be accomplished by listening and clearly understanding your The Project Work Plan includes a Project Quality Management Plan (QMP) that is specific for each project. The QMP
identifies the QC Manager and constructability reviewer. It includes project deliverables, design tasks, and schedules in-house reviews. The QMP verifies that the all requirements are met. It is based on a 4-step process of Plan – Do – Check – Act. By working on continuous improvement we ensure
that our services provide added value.

City Council 20 – 157 5/16/2023
7 City of Santa Ana Civil Engineering Services: RFP 23-030 expectations. We will confirm our understanding in our negotiated scope and verify that we are on track by conducting design review meetings on a regular basis from planning through final design. » We will meet with sub-consultants to ensure their scope is complete. » We will design the project in accordance with your schedule. This begins with development of a detailed schedule that includes critical path, agency review times, and milestones. Progress will be reviewed during our design meetings. » We will design a project that is within your budget. We will develop a project budget that includes contingency, probable construction cost, and consultant fees. The probable construction cost will be prepared using current unit prices and submitted for review. » We strive to minimize non-client initiated change orders during construction. Our QA/QC procedure implements a constructability reviewer. It helps us foresee and resolve potential issues before the bidding phase.

Our PM will establish the framework and ensure that we capture your expectations for quality prior to publishing our plan.

Existing Utility Inventory - Every project presents its own special design challenges. The most frequent challenge related to existing utilities we would expect in the City of Santa Ana. Is that improvement to utilities located in developed areas will generally affect or be affected by other utilities. Through experience we have learned that existing records may be non-existent, inaccurate, or lack information. This is why all projects require an effective existing utility locating approach. A precise utility inventory will:
» Equal a high quality design
» Avoid conflicts during construction
» Prevent utility interruptions
With HZ, utilities will be located, verified, and compiled into a V8i CADD file using a “Four Tier Approach." Environmental Assessment – Verify that the work limits are within areas with existing infrastructure. Small improvements of this nature typically qualify for environmental exclusions but if the work requires a negative declaration. Our first step would be to research existing environmental filing(s). There after our consultant and civil team would assist the City of Santa Ana with supporting studies and documentation to comply with CEQA and/or NEPA.

Topography - HZ is leading the industry with fixed wing aerial drone surveying. The new technology has a perfect platform in topography.

With on board RTK the data will generate an accuracy that matches conventional aerial photography but a picture quality that is unmatched.

It allows for quicker delivery and data control at a competitive fee. The data would be supplemented with a field survey(s) and tied to the most appropriate datum. HZ will acquire necessary permits to perform aerial surveys via drones. Our survey department would also provide legal descriptions, if required. Providing plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) for engineering projects is the backbone of our Irvine branch. We are familiar with local, state, and federal codes and regulations. This ensures that the design is in conformance with established guidelines. We are also experience with preparation of special provisions. We have been serving Southern California for over 30 years this includes projects with the City of Santa Ana. We are familiar with the City’s criteria for acceptance of plans. » Promote public safety
» Avoid construction change orders
» Prevent construction delays
TIER I: SITE INVESTIGATION - Huitt-Zollars conducts a cursory site investigation that includes pictures used to formulate the scope of services. The information gather identifies utility purveyors in the project vicinity and assesses probable challenges.

TIER II: GATHER RECORD DATA - Huitt-Zollars request records from utility purveyors in the project vicinity. The City of Santa Ana will provide information in its possession relevant to the preparation of the project plans. Record information will be reviewed and compiled into a V8i CADD file. The information is further verified during the topographic survey.

TIER III: TOPOGRAPHY SURVEY – One week prior to surveying, HZ will contact Dig-Alert USA with a project exhibit to request that existing utilities be marked within the project limits. Our survey department will capture utility markings, visible surface utility features, and dip manholes as necessary. The survey shots will be compiled with the record data and used to verify utility locations, inverts, size, and flow direction. The information will help our civil team foresee potential challenges during design.

TIER IV: SUB-SURFACE INVESTIGATION - The data collected in previous tiers is used to arrive at possible utility conflicts during preliminary design. Our goal is to resolve each conflict via good research and design. But we must also prepare with a set aside budget for further sub-surface investigation shall it be necessary. A task sets aside a budget for potholing cost and incidentals. The investigation is kicked off after preliminary design so that the findings help improve the level of quality of future submittals.

City Council 20 – 158 5/16/2023

Water Quality Compliance
WQMP – In accordance with MS4 Permit Guidelines
SWPPP - Prepares PRDs in accordance with the requirements set forth in the NPDES General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities. The SWPPP may also be deferred to the construction phase.

Geotechnical Recommendations – Our consultant will provide the required analysis to determine the street section thickness, subsurface soils classification and condition, evaluate soil properties, provide geotechnical parameters, trench stability requirements, and backfill recommendations. We will coordinate with the City to make sure quality and durability are not compromised.

Estimates – HZ will generate quantity takeoffs and an opinion of probable construction cost for proposed project improvements. Cost estimates shall include construction, engineering, inspection, administration, right-of-way, and contingency. The estimate shall tie the unit price to a cost index and provide a format that is easily updated or revised. Bid prices from recent city project shall be reviewed to verify unit prices.

TASK B: Records Research – The utility list will be compared to findings from Underground Service Alert. All Utility agencies will be contacted to gather and review available record data. Record information will be evaluated against the survey and compiled into a master Vi8 CADD file. HZ will evaluate “record” information against proposed facilities to pinpoint potential conflicts. All potential conflicts will be tagged for further investigation during the pothole investigation.

TASK C: Survey – The overall topography includes a design survey that captures surface information within the right-of-way and an aerial that extends the topography beyond the right-of-way to capture private property features. It is assumed that the topography limits will be sufficient for design. The City will also provide the record boundary that will be necessary to evaluate right-of-way and property encroachments.

Prior to commencing design the project manager and key personnel will walk the site to evaluate the topography and record information against the existing condition. HZ will review the topography against visible utility features, notate SCE power pole number tags, control panel types, traffic signal types, and mast arm lengths. The information will be compile into the master Micro-Station CAD file for discussion prior to the design phase.
