PROJECT ANALYSIS
Project Understanding
To confirm, TRB has reviewed the Scope of Work as outlined in the City’s RFP and is prepared to provide all requested services.
In brief, it is our understanding the City of Santa Clarita Building and Safety Division is seeking qualified consultants to assist with as-needed building plan review , inspections, and permit -related services during periods of high construction. It is also understood that all projects are to be reviewed/inspected for adherence to the City of Santa Clarita’s latest adopted Municipal Codes, Title 24 California Building Standards Codes, and other applicable standards covering structural, fire prevention, life safety, accessibility, energy conservation, green building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical provisions.
Project Approach Overview
Our approach to this engagement is centered on creating a team atmosphere between our staff and the City’s staff. On an ongoing basis, our Project Manager, Paul Armstrong, PE, CBO, is committed to maintaining regular communication with City staff to ensure that we are kept apprised of current code interpretations and policies, and to enhance our ability to quickly respond to any issues that may arise during permit counter, document review, and/or inspection activities. We value the importance of the City’s projects and are committed to meeting all project service delivery deadlines. We will diligently document and report all plan review and inspection findings, tracking information, and other reports, as required by the City.
Throughout this engagement, our key team members will be available to meet with City staff either via phone or in person to address questions that may come up during the course of a project. We understand that being accessible to project stakeholders is essential in helping ensure that decisions are made in timely manner; as such, our firm is committed to responding to all inquiries within 1 business day. We encourage discussions via in-person meeting, telecon, and/or Zoom, WebEx or similar formats as agreeable and necessary to achieve the most expeditious results.

PROJECT ANALYSIS
On an ongoing basis, our Project Manager, Paul Armstrong will coordinate with our Plan Review and Inspection Services Managers, to allocate plan review and inspection resources appropriately. The Plan Review Manager will be responsible for oversight of all plan review services provided, and our Inspection Services Manager will be responsible for monitoring and managing any and all Field Inspection and Safety activities. Regular communication between our Project Mana ger and the TRB team will be ongoing throughout this engagement to ensure alignment on project staffing and schedule needs.
Quality Control Assurance
Quality and on-time service are of paramount importance to us. Though we employ only licensed and experienced plan reviewers, certified inspectors and key administrative staff and expect their work to be of high standard, we have instituted a quality control policy to ensure this standard is maintained. At the core of our quality control approach is a “two sets of eyes” policy in place. All work performed by staff are reviewed for quality control by senior members of our team . Our Project Manager, Plan Review Manager, and Inspection Services Manager hold primary responsibility for ensuring accuracy and consistency (QA/QC) in the application of adopted codes and standards.

Workload Accommodation
It is understood that there are often periods of time where workload extends beyond what may be normally expected. We would like to highlight that our firm has a system in place to accommodate such peaks without compromising turnaround or quality. We have a large number of qualified and experienced team members who we access to assist at times of high workload or emergency need. To illustrate, TRB was able to mobilize a team to provide same- day post-disaster engineering and inspection suppor t to the City of Vallejo in response to the August 24, 2014 Napa Earthquake.

Plan Review Scope & Approach
TRB will work seamlessly performing plan review services for residential, multi -family residential, commercial, and industrial projects encompassing building code, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fire protection, Title- 24 energy, accessibility, and green building standards; as well as grading, drainage, floodplain, wildland urban interface fire severity zone, stormwater, gradin g, hazardous materials, and State housing law Title-25 factory-built structure considerations, as applicable.

Our experience with the use of alternate materials, alternate design and methods of construction enhances our ability to solve specific issues that arise in design and construction.
Electronic Plan Review
As an alternative to review of hardcopy media, TRB is prepared to review electronic media should it be the desire of the City to accept submittals electronically. The staff of TRB has been leaders in the field of digital plan review and workflow management and our team has extensive experience working with the several electronic plan review systems including DigEplan, Bluebeam and ProjectDox. We are also experienced with remote workflow statusing of plan review project activity, and are prepared to d o so for the City on this assignment.

Our postings can include plan review findings (i.e., approval/comment letters), plan review submi ttal status information, meeting notes , etc.; all of which may be updated daily. In addition, if so desired by the City, we can also accommodate incoming electronic document postings (i.e., electronic plans, calculations, RFI’s, etc.) to allow a paperless review of the project. To confirm, there is no additional cost for this service.
CITY OF SANTA CLARITA | CONTRACTUAL SERVICES FOR THE BUILDING & SAFETY DIVISION 4-2
WORK PROGRAM
Plan Review Process
Please note that our plan review process will be tailored to meet the City’s specific needs. The following process represents an example plan review workflow which may be applied if desired by the City.
Step 1 - Preliminary Discussions:
Prior to beginning our initial plan review project, our Project Manager proposes to conduct a meeting or conference call with the City to discuss local code policies, documentation procedures, plan processing protocols, plan review checklist items, and scheduling.
Step 2 – Initial Review:
Once we receive a complete set of plan documents, we will perform our plan review in the agreed -upon timeframe, checking for compliance to all applicable code standards. In general, plan review turnaround timeframe is ten (10) business days for initial reviews and five (5) business days for rechecks and revisions. Timeframes for large-size projects will be confirmed with City staff prior to proceeding with the review.
All corrections are identified based on compliance with specified codes and regulations and worded so the designer will know what needs attention and how to respond to the issue stated. Generally, corrections are identified in two ways:
• Notes can be made on plans as appropriate and authorized to assist in locating the issue on the plans; • A correction sheet is generated detailing what items need to be addressed before plans can be approved.
The client will receive a copy of each correction list, as well as a cover memo containing the following:
• The date plans were reviewed by TRB and Associates
• The date that the applicant/applicant’s designee was notified that the plan review was completed
Step 3 – Transmittal of Plans and Comment Lists for Plan Review:
At the heart of our approach in delivering our services to you, is the recognition that there must be a coordinated effort to track and coordinate all submittals and requests received. To help assure that submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, TRB and Associates has established an internal plan review coordination process to ensure that each plan received for review is properly handled, processed and returned on time. Our plan tracking procedures are computerized to track each submittal through th e review process and maintain accurate and comprehensive records for each submittal.
Upon completion of our review, any comments generated are consolidated into a correction letter which is forwarded to the applicant; at the same time, an electronic copy is sent to the City for its reference.
Step 4 – Rechecks:
Upon receipt of the resubmittal package from the applicant, we will notify the City (via email) that we have received the package. Once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed -upon timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for approval.
Step 5 – Plan Approval:
When all review comments are satisfied, we will forward two sets of all relevant correspondence bearing our company’s “Reviewed for Code Compliance” stamp (including plans, calculations, and specifications), along with a transmittal letter indicating our recommendation for project approval, and the project file to the City for processing.
Shipping and Delivery of Plans
TRB provides pre-printed overnight shipping labels and/or pickup services to facilitate the transport of plan submittals to our office. Please note that the pickup, shipment and delivery of plan documents and other relevant correspondence to the City is provided at no additional cost.
CITY OF SANTA CLARITA | CONTRACTUAL SERVICES FOR THE BUILDING & SAFETY DIVISION 4-3
WORK PROGRAM
Building Inspection Scope & Approach
TRB is prepared to perform inspection, referring to building plans, structural plans, and material specifications for structures located within the City limits, upon 48-hour notice. Our inspectors are proficient at verifying project conformance to model code standards (Build ing, Electrical, Mechanical, Plumbing, Green Building and Energy Code & Accessibility) and locally -adopted ordinances.
TRB provides all labor and technical, administrative, professional and other personnel; supplies, materials, equipment and all other resources necessary to perform the specified work. TRB will use existing City forms or can develop correction sheets which meet with the approval of the City, and shall maintain written lists of corrections needed to ensure conformance to codes and regulations.
Field Inspection Process
Our experienced team includes individuals with extensive field inspection experience on a range of project assignment types including municipality “Called Inspections,” “Clerk of the Works,” and “Inspector of Record” roles; our team can assist with a broad range of inspection responsibilities. Our scope of service areas includes residential, commercial, and industrial facilities , capital improvement projects, municipal agency services and infrastructure revitalization.
Our inspectors are careful to document all inspection activities, adhere to agency -adopted protocols, and follow field procedures and policies as dictated by the Building Official. TRB will maintain daily inspection records and all necessary documents on file f or reference by the City. To confirm, TRB staff are available for applicant inquiries and/or conferences during normal City busi ness hours.
Our inspections include those identified in the California Model Codes and would be amended or modified as directed by the City.
• Foundation Inspection
• Framing Inspection(s)
• Electrical, Mechanical and Plumbing systems inspection • Lath and/or Gypsum Board Inspection
• Fire Code Inspection (if requested), e.g., fire suppression systems, alarms, etc. • Concrete Slab or under-floor Inspection
• Energy Efficiency Measures Inspection
• Green Building Inspection
• Fire Resistive Rated Construction Inspection
• Floodplain Inspection
• Final Inspection
Remote Virtual Inspection (RVI) Option
Many agencies are considering or have started using virtual programs to provide remote inspection services. Several of our clients (including the City of Sacramento) have successfully implemented a virtual inspection program. The system allows staff to keep doing their jobs while abiding by social-distancing requirements. Programs such as Inspected.com (a teaming effort with the ICC) or Blitzz charge a per inspection fee as well as an annual lease of their software. Inexpensive tools like Facetime, Skype, G oogle Duo and Microsoft Teams are also being used. It is important to note that TRB currently utilizes Microsoft Teams and Facetime for these services but can utilize other programs as requested.

Remote Virtual Inspection (RVI) Option

The system allows staff to keep doing their jobs while abiding by social -distancing requirements. Programs such as Inspected.com (a teaming effort with the ICC) or Blitzz charge a per inspection fee as well as an annual lease of their software. Inexpensive tools like Facetime, Skype, Google Duo and Microsoft Teams are also being used. It is important to note that TRB currently utilizes Microsoft Teams and Facetime for these services but can utilize other programs as requested.
