Geosyntec's Huntington Beach office is staffed with of over 50 employees, including geotechnical and civil engineers, geologists and hydrogeologists, environmental and chemical engineers, risk assessment specialists, GIS and CADD designers, administrative personnel, construction managers, and field technicians. Figure 1 illustrates our proposed project team organization and the functions that each team member will perform. In addition to the key personnel described above, the Geosyntec team provides the City with access to over 200 staff within southern California. Geosyntec's local staff proposed to serve the City under the geotechnical service categories described in this SOO is comprised of highly -qualified and motivated professionals with expertise in each of the technical disciplines required to perform the work requested by the City. Geosyntec's personnel/staff have the necessary technical expertise and project management skills, as well as previous relevant work experience in southern California to efficiently perform the full range of requested services for service category G. D-3 Understanding and Methodology In preparing this SOO, Geosyntec has carefully reviewed the detailed scope of work items listed under the geotechnical materials testing and inspection service category described in the RFQ. In this section we provide a brief description of our understanding of the City, the objectives to be accomplished, and our innovative approaches and solutions. This section also includes a brief description of our efforts to achieve project objectives to the satisfaction of the City. P a q e 12 Understanding of the City We understand that the City of Huntington Beach operates with 14 departments; three departments are headed by elected officials (i.e., City Attorney, City Clerk and City Treasurer). The other 11 departments report to the City Manager. Some of the City departments include, but are not limited to, Community Services, Finance, Fire Department, Information Services, Planning & Building, and Public Works. Based on our close working relationship with the City, Geosyntec understands that the Public Works department is charged with the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of public facilities and infrastructure within the City. Public Works is also responsible for projects designed and managed with in-house staff as well as by professional consultants. We strive to be an extension of your staff. City work includes major project management, drainage and sewer master planning, pavement management, general surveying, engineering, technical oversight and review, construction drawings and contract document preparation, construction quality assurance, contract administration, as well as inspection services related to capital improvement, utility public encroachment, and development entitlement. Based on Geosyntec's unique understanding of the City's needs, objectives, and the specific items requested in RFQ, Geosyntec understands that, in general, the City is seeking experienced consulting fines to provide professional services on an "On -Call" basis for projects assigned by the City. We also understand that the scope of work for any one project may involve all phases of project development. Projects included under the scope of work described in the RFQ may include projects performed under the CIP. Geosyntec understand that the CIP identifies major public improvement to the Citys infrastructure over the next five years and include new projects and upgrades to existing facilities of $50,000 or more. We also understand funds for CIP are provided through a variety of sources but the major funding sources are Special Revenue Funds, Enterprise Funds and Grants. ;Based on our close working relationship with the City and our review of the of the City's CIP for the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 through 2018/2019, we understand that there are currently multiple Capital Infrastructure Construction (CIC) projects in progress. To assist the City accomplish the objectives of these vital projects, Geosyntec will implement the following proven steps: Project initiation - The City and Geosyntec usually collaborate on a "scoping session" where details of the City's objectives, specifics of the work, and the schedule for the project are discussed. Please note that Geosyntec is happy to provide this scoping assessment whether or not the project/task is subsequently competitively bid amongst the City's qualified on -call consultants. Proposal Preparation - at the direction of the City, Geosyntec will prepare a proposal for the project/task. The format and level of detail of the proposal will be commensurate with the complexity, size and nature of the project. Regardless of format, minimum proposal requirements include a sufficient description of the work to be performed, the schedule and the estimated cost. P a a e 13 Project Execution - if the project/task is approved by the City, detailed formal work plans will be prepared only if required. If required, the formal work plan will provide a framework for the executing the project tasks and related schedule. Project Management - during project execution, Geosyntec will include tracking project task advancement, project expenses and schedule. These data will be reported to the City on a regular basis or as requested by the City. Project Completion Follow -Up - once the project has been completed, Geosyntec will contact the City to confirm that the work was satisfactorily completed and to remind the City of potential follow-up and/ or maintenance requirements or considerations. If necessary, Geosyntec will develop a project follow-up sheet which lists some possible actions which could be considered by the City to further benefit the project and confirm project approval by other stakeholder or regulatory agencies. Cost Controls - we recognize that cost savings and cost control are important issues for the City. We strive to provide all our clients with cost effective strategies that begin in the planning stages of the project. During the initiation phase, we will discuss with the City their expectations with regard to budget and deliverables to develop a project strategy that meets or exceeds the budget expectation. In our experience, up front planning, building on similar project experience, and staff dedication to working efficiently are the most important ingredients to overall cost control on projects. Stakeholder Coordination - Based on our previous project experience with the City, Geosyntec understands that many of the City's projects involve coordination amongst internal City staff and departments and/or external stakeholders. On multiple public and private sector projects, including several that we have performed with the City Fire Department and Public Works, Geosyntec is experienced at coordinating negotiations and discussions between external stakeholders and the City. A key example of stakeholder coordination for the City Department of Public Works involved Geosyntec's work with the ongoing NPDES MS4 inspection process. During these inspections (over 500 businesses within the City to date), Geosyntec personnel have been able to educate business operators regarding surface water quality issues and successfully inspect the premises. Typical strategies involve listening to and understanding stakeholder requests, requirements or concerns. The relationship between stake -holder issues and project components such as regulatory compliance, protection of human health and the environment, cost or schedule are evaluated to develop potential path forward options and guide decision -making. Geosyntec is also experienced in providing presentations or briefings to internal City stakeholders on technical or regulatory topics to support the City's decision making process, as well as providing support to or representing our clients at public hearings. Geosyntec's unique understanding of the City's needs, objectives, and the speck services described in the RFQ stems from our long-term working relationship with the City, our locally available in-depth expertise and project -specific experience, and our 27- year operational history in Huntington Beach. Repeatedly and to the satisfaction of City project managers in several departments, Geosyntec has provided the City with an array of engineering & professional consulting support services on several projects totaling over $750,000 in professional services over the past decade.
