Thank you for taking the time to review my

Sincerely,
Luis Medina
Todd Dusenberry
General Manager
City of Vernon
4305 Santa Fe Avenue
Vernon, CA 90058
Proposal Valid for 120 Days
After September 25,2025

INTRODUCTION
The City of Vernon’s Request for Proposals (RFP) for Scaffolding Services is the City of Vernon’s process to identify and acquire a highly qualified contractor to support maintenance schedules and other repairs over a three-year period at the Malburg Generating Station (MGS). MGS supports the business and residential community, and it must import additional energy to meet its peak system demand of 163 MW. It is imperative that the scaffolding contractor is reliable, efficient, and will minimize disruption to ongoing operations.

The RFP consists of two forecasted outages. One in the first year of the proposed agreement in December 2025 and the other in the third year of the proposed agreement in the Spring of 2028. There are on-call scenarios identified for each year of the proposed agreement. It is to be expected that not all the work will be planned, and there will be last-minute call outs for scaffold support. The specific needs vary per year and will ultimately be determined by the City of Vernon.

D2 Industrial Services will be available 24 hours a day, every day to ensure we minimize delays to ongoing operations. The City of Vernon may contact D2 via phone call, email, or text to request scaffold support services. D2’s response to any request will be determined by the immediate needs of the city. D2’s Scaffold Project Manager may conduct a site visit to generate a proposal for the work required. A foreman may go to the site to identify the needs and determine the crew and materials needed while he gets started on the documentation. We may send a crew to do immediate work such as erect, modify or dismantle scaffolds. The city may request a specific number of workers and estimate the size of the scaffold due to their familiarity with the work. D2 may also provide the city with a combination of the above-mentioned responses to ensure the city gets the service it needs in a safe and timely manner, while staying within budget.

GENERAL SCOPE OF WORK

1. Outdoor Structure Adjacent to the Gas Turbine Enclosure Erect and dismantle two (2) scaffolds approximately 15’ W x 36’ L x 23’ H, adjacent to the face of the Gas Turbine Enclosure buildings. These scaffolds will be used to protect the Gas Turbines from potential weather elements. The scaffold will have an opening big enough so that it does not obstruct the small doors, the big doors, the beams that will be used to facilitate the removal of the gas turbines, or the gas turbines themselves.

The scaffolds will have an opening on the east side so that a forklift can enter and exit the containment area. The scaffolds will have a controlled work environment with a higher degree containment. The scaffold is expected to be utilized for 30 days. This project is expected to take place in the Spring of 2028

2. Gas Turbine Maintenance
Erect and dismantle the following scaffolds:

1. One (1) scaffold approximately 10’ W x 10’ L x 8’ H.

2. Two (2) scaffolds approximately 10’ W x 12’ L x 5’ H.

3. Two (2) hard barricades approximately 12’ L.

We will provide and have readily available material on-site to erect the scaffolds proposed. We will provide material to meet and exceed the needs of the above scopes of work as the jobsite conditions and needs change. This includes but is not limited to extra rails, metal planks, wood planks, clamps, plywood, etc. Additional scaffold material will be provided to meet any requirements for the Gas Turbine Maintenance at the specific unit location. Scaffold dimensions described above are for reference only, and the design will be modified to fit the unique configurations of the specific work location.

The scaffolds will then be modified as the project progresses and the needs change. We will provide a crew of two (2) to be inside the facility, next to the work area with all tools, PPE and equipment. The crew will be on standby throughout the duration of the project, ready for any scaffold erection, modification or dismantle that may be needed. The forecasted duration of the project is twenty (20) ten-hour (10) day shifts. Fifteen (15) of those shifts will be Monday to Friday and five (5) of those shifts will be Saturday to Sunday shifts. The proposed schedule for the project is 7 – 10’s. The project is expected to take place in the Spring of 2028.

3. Steam Turbine Maintenance
Erect and dismantle the following scaffolds:

1. one (1) scaffold approximately 10’ W x 10’ L x 8’ H.

2. one (1) perimeter scaffold around the steam turbine to reach the steam valves.

We will provide and have readily available material on-site to erect the scaffolds proposed. We will provide material to meet and exceed the needs of the above scopes of work as the jobsite conditions and needs change. This includes but is not limited to extra rails, metal planks, wood planks, clamps, plywood, etc. Additional scaffold material will be provided to meet any requirements for the Steam Turbine Maintenance at the specific unit location. Scaffold dimensions described above are for reference only, and the design will be modified to fit the unique configurations of the specific work location.

The scaffolding will then be modified as the project progresses and the needs change.

We will provide a crew of two (2) to be inside the facility, next to the work area with all tools, PPE and equipment. The crew will be on standby throughout the duration of the project, ready for any scaffold erection, modification or dismantle that may be needed.

The forecasted duration of the project is eighteen (18) ten-hour (10) day shifts. Fourteen (14) of those shifts will be Monday to Friday and four (4) of those shifts will be Saturday to Sunday shifts. The proposed schedule for the project is 7 – 10’s. The Steam Turbine Maintenance projects will be performed as follows:

1. December 2025 – Steam Turbine Maintenance scope for 1 Turbine.

2. Spring 2028 - Steam Turbine Maintenance scope for 2 Turbines.

4. HRSG SCR Catalyst
Erect and dismantle one (1) scaffold approximately 4’ W x 15’ L x 50’ H. The scaffold is expected to be utilized for 30 days. The HRSG SCR Catalyst projects will be performed as follows:

1. December 2025 - HRSG SCR Catalyst scope for one (1) internal.

2. Year two (2) of the proposed agreement - HRSG SCR Catalyst scope for one (1) internal.

3. Spring 2028 - HRSG SCR Catalyst scope for two (2) internals.

5. Miscellaneous Callouts
Erect and dismantle two (2) scaffolds approximately 15’ W x 20’ L x 12’ H per callout in an industrial work environment. The scaffold dimensions are for estimating purposes and will differ depending on the specific needs of the city at the time of the callout. This proposal includes two (2) callouts per year of the proposed agreement.

WORK PLAN
We propose setting up a staging area with material on site after the award of the project. This material will be used to provide scaffold support and not incur any rental charges while it is on site for the duration of the agreement. Any rental charges to be incurred will be detailed in our proposals or billed on a T&M basis on a job-by-job basis.

We will not charge the City of Vernon any shipping/material freight charges for mobilizing any material to and from the MGS at the beginning or end of the 3-year agreement. This includes any labor on site to offload, stage, and load the material.

To plan the work, we will go over the scope with the city to identify access areas needed, timelines, priorities, crew size, simultaneous operations, hazards, schedules and dates. We will come up with a plan to execute the scope in a safe, efficient and timely manner all while staying within budget. All the scaffolding will be measured and designed by a competent person. If necessary, we will measure, pull and stage material before the start of the project. Barricading procedures will be determined by the city.

When priorities shift, we will be ready and available to stop current tasks to assist or start other tasks as needed.

Once we have identified the work areas, crew makeup, hazards and other pertinent job details, we will begin the process to conduct the work. Before any work is performed, we will conduct a Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) and review as a group to identify the day’s activities, job tasks, hazards, hazard mitigations, permits, evacuation points, key personnel, contacts, emergency equipment, safety equipment, PPE and other sitespecific information related to the project. Once everyone has reviewed and signed the JHA, we will do our stretch and flex.

To erect our scaffolds, we will gather the material needed for the project in the laydown yard and stage it next to the work area. We will barricade and tag our work area, conduct a final visual hazard assessment, then start to erect our scaffolding. Once the scaffold is complete, it will be inspected by our competent person and tagged accordingly. We will then communicate with the city, contractor, end user or point of contact to ensure the scaffold is correctly erected for its intended purpose. After we conduct our housekeeping, we will mobilize our material to the staging area and organize it in racks.

For modifications we will analyze the work area and gather any materials needed. We will mobilize and stage the material next to the work area. We will barricade and tag the work area, conduct a final visual hazard assessment, and execute the modification.

Once the scaffold is complete, it will be inspected by our competent person and tagged accordingly. We will then communicate with the city, contractor, end user or point of contact to ensure the scaffold is correctly erected for its intended purpose. After we conduct our housekeeping, we will mobilize our material to the staging area and organize it in racks.

To dismantle our scaffolds, we will gather the necessary racks and stage them next to our work area. We will barricade and tag our work area, conduct a final visual hazard assessment, then start to dismantle our scaffolding. After we conduct our housekeeping, we will mobilize our material to the staging area and organize it in racks. Once the scaffold is dismantled, we will communicate with the city, contractor, end user or point of contact to let them know the work is complete and we are clear of the area.

For the outdoor structure adjacent to the Gas Turbine Enclosure buildings, we will measure the area and gather the materials necessary to erect the scaffold. We will erect the frame of the scaffolding first. We will then cover it with shrink-wrap to protect inside from the elements.

The Gas Turbine Maintenance will require us to measure and erect some of the scaffolding. As they open the turbine building and the turbine itself, we will erect, modify and dismantle scaffolding as needed. We will be at the gas turbine building ready to provide continuous support for this project on an as needed basis.

The Steam Turbine Maintenance will require us to measure and erect some of the scaffolding inside the steam turbine building. We will erect, modify and dismantle scaffolding as needed. We will be at the steam turbine building ready to provide continuous support for this project on an as needed basis.

We will pull and stage material for the HRSG according to the inner dimensions. If dimensions or additional information is not available or provided by the city, we will measure the space to create a material list to pull the material. Once the HRSG is cooled down and all permits are in place to enter the confined space, we will erect the scaffolding inside the confined space so they can clean, inspect or replace the catalyst.

For miscellaneous callouts or outage support, we will measure the work area and pull the material needed to complete the task.

There is one approach to that which will be consistent not only with all the tasks proposed, but with the unforeseen variables. That approach is safety. We will follow all Company and City of Vernon policies and procedures. All scaffolding will be built in accordance with State & Federal OSHA guidelines. All the scaffolding will be inspected by a competent person before being released for use. D2 promotes a “Stop Work Authority” culture, empowering employees to halt unsafe work without retaliation. We will ensure controls are in place: barricades, signage, fall protection, PPE, equipment checks, etc. We conduct toolbox talks, stretch-and-flex programs, and targeted training (e.g., lockout/tagout, confined space, respirator fit testing).

Supplier Clearinghouse Verification Order Number: 17001389 Congratulations, the Supplier Clearinghouse is pleased to inform you that in accordance with General Order 156, your business enterprise has successfully completed the verification process, and your company has received the following certification: Minority Business Enterprise (MBE).

Your company will now be recognized by the Joint Utilities as a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) when competing for procurements by public utilities participating in the Utility Supplier Diversity Program.

Your Supplier Clearinghouse certificate will expire on the same expiration date (September 30, 2025) as that of the WBENC, NMSDC, NGLCC or Disability:IN certification upon which this verification is based. Please notify our office of any change in your address or contact information so that we can maintain your most current contact information. You must notify our office of any change in ownership and/or control of your company within 30 days of the change. Failure to provide that notification is in violation of section 8285 of the Public Utilities Code and could render your certification status invalid.

The Supplier Clearinghouse may request additional information or conduct an on-site visit at any time during the term of your verified certification status. The Supplier Clearinghouse may reconsider your certification status and possibly rule invalid your verified status if it is determined that the status was knowingly obtained by false, misleading and/or incorrect information. Also note that if in a formal opinion, the California Public Utilities Commission determines that the WBE/MBE/LGBTBE/PDBE verification criteria under which you were deemed eligible is no longer valid, then your status may change or you may be required to comply with the change to maintain eligibility.

Thank you for participating in the Utility Supplier Diversity program. We wish you much success in your business endeavors. Feel free to contact our office if you have questions or visit our website at www.thesupplierclearinghouse.com.
