CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 5/21/2018 SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins, PE, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Approve and authorize execution of Professional Services Contracts for On Call Ocean and Engineering Services with Moffatt & Nichol, Anchor QEA, LLC., and GHD, Inc., each in an amount not to exceed $150,000 Statement of Issue: The Public Works Department requires on-call/as-needed ocean and other engineering services to support staff for design of capital improvement projects. Financial Impact: The City's FY 2017/18 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget totals $28 million (All Funds) for approved projects citywide. Each approved CIP project has a budget containing sufficient funding for design, environmental, engineering, construction, project management and other required costs. The three (3) recommended ocean and engineering service contracts have a maximum value of $450,000 over the next three years and will be funded on an as -needed basis within each project's individual CIP budget. As such, no additional funding is required by this action. Recommended Action: A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $150,000 "Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Moffatt & Nichol for On Call Ocean and Engineering Services;" and, 4 5CF_5EPC <,A PILE B) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $150,000 "Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Anchor QEA, LLC. for On Call Ocean and Engineering Services;" and, + SEC SE��1j2FC(E }� T— C) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $150,000 "Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and GHD, Inc. for On Call Ocean and Engineering Services." Alternative Action(s): Do not authorize the contracts and direct staff with an alternate action. Budgeted Capital Projects could be delayed until new contracts are approved. Analysis: On November 28, 2017, the City advertised a Request for Qualifications ("RFQ") for On -Call Engineering and Professional Consulting Services. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Four (4) proposals were received for ocean and engineering services. In accordance with a qualifications based selected Item 16. - 1 HB -474- Dept. ID PW 18-018 Page 2 of 2 Meeting Date: 5/21/2018 procurement per the Federal "Brooks Act," State SB 419, and the City of Huntington Beach Municipal Code Section 3.03 "Professional Services" the Public Works Department established a review board. Proposals were evaluated and ranked by a three (3) member panel review team established by the Public Works Department. The reviewers were a Principal Civil Engineer, a Planning Manager, and a Senior Planner. After conducting the entire evaluation process, including negotiation for competitive rates, the top three (3) firms were selected to increase opportunity for competitive proposals for future projects from qualified on call consultants, and they are Moffatt & Nichol, Anchor QEA, LLC., and GHD, Inc. A summary of evaluation sheets for the top (3) firms, and the fourth (4th) firm not selected are shown in Attachment 4. The contracts recommended in this Request for Council Action (RCA) are to support staff for ocean and design engineering of capital improvement projects. These services have historically been utilized to supplement City staff to meet annual CIP goals, as an extension of staff and/or to provide required expertise for unique projects. It is anticipated that these services will be required based on past years. Each project is evaluated on a case by case basis to determine if these as -needed contract services are necessary. The City's Capital Improvement Program ("CIP") is approximately $24.6 million in Fiscal Year 2017/18, and exceeds $28 million with continuing funds for projects approved from previous years. In addition, the proposed Fiscal Year 2018/19 CIP totals $24.7 million in new projects. Typical design and construction support costs from use of consultants on a CIP project can vary between ten (10) to twenty (20) percent of total costs for a CIP project. Therefore, it is practical to conservatively estimate minimum annual consultant costs would be approximately $2 million to the City for total CIP projects or $6 million within the next three (3) years. Ocean and engineering services are typically required for ocean related CIP projects. Therefore, these consultants were selected to meet projected workload over the next three years with a total contract limit of $450,000. Public Works Commission Action: Not applicable. Environmental Status: Not applicable. Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance and maintain infrastructure. Attachment(s): 1.

In support of both design and permitting, a hydraulic/hydrology study is being prepared. As part of the study, GHD is researching and synthesizing current sea level rise projections to estimate the end -of -century sea level rise projection and expected water levels over the service life of the trail structure. Utilizing the existing FEMA coastal flood analysis and the projected subsidence from the geotechnical investigation, GHD is estimating the future coastal flood elevation. This will be important information for the design process, as it will define the top of walkway elevation, in preparation for sea level rise. In addition, the design of the trail structure will include appropriate materials (e.g. concrete, coated steel and timber, plastic) that require minimal maintenance and are suitable for the marine environment.

The new berths will consist of concrete floating docks held in position by precast, pre -stressed concrete guide piles. The conceptual berth improvements included associated access gangways and utilities to accommodate commercial fishing and recreational boats. Maintenance dredging scenarios for the areas adjacent to the eastern outer breakwater at the Harbor and other areas were also developed. Dredged materials may be beneficially used to create uplands for parking and other amenities adjacent to the new boat basin, and as beach nourishment along an adjacent beach. The preliminary design and conceptual layout of the additional 71 berths and guest dock was an important aspect of the project. GHD worked closely with the District, Harbor staff and the California Coastal Commission to develop alternatives for the seawall and berth layouts that would be acceptable to both commercial and recreational boat owners. In addition, GHD has provided engineering and permitting to assist the Harbor District with dredging of sedimentation at the boat launch ramp and stabilization repairs to the shoreline and hillside adjacent to the coastal public access West Trail.

Additionally, GHD developed conceptual designs for structural repairs and potential seismic upgrades, and provided preliminary cost estimates for the conceptual work. As a part of the condition survey, the Pier 50 substructure framing and piling required above -water structural condition assessment from a boat under the pier. A topside visual survey of the deck was also included. As is typical, condition surveys were conducted in accordance with the MOTEMS standard (Chapter 31 F, California Building GHD I City of Huntington Beach j HB-615-11 Ocean Engineering & Professional Consulti Item 16. - 142 Code). GHD provided subsequent conceptual repair and potential seismic upgrade design along with cost estimates of the conceptual design repairs. A condition survey report was prepared with the results of the condition survey and material testing, and included the survey team's inspection report along with tables noting the location and extent of the damage observed on above -water portions of piles and deck substructure bent caps, as well as under -deck surfaces. Photos were included to document the damage observed during the survey. The report also featured recommendations for items observed that required immediate, short range, medium -range, and long-range attention by the Port.

The breakwater repair site is approximately rectangular shaped, about 100 feet long along the breakwater extending up to 170 feet into the water measured from the centerline of the road on top of the breakwater. The repair consists of the installation of concrete cubes of two different sizes (4.8 feet and 6.0 feet), the heavier size cube to be located on the upper slope and a smaller size cube on the lower toe slope of the repair. GHD conducted a coastal engineering study to develop estimated return periods for various height waves at the repair location. This estimate was based on the local bathymetry developed during the design, and on assumptions for maximum wind speed, available fetch and other wave height limiting factors relative to the open -ocean wave approach angles. Modeling of the local topography above and below water was performed to identify local topography that may be impacting or amplifying the wave effects in the repair area. The results were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed repairs and to establish the risk of damage due to increased wave heights.

To help the City meet their goals, GHD has developed a comprehensive approach to coastal zone and waterfront projects that takes advantage of our multidiscipline staff. Through listening to our clients' needs and building on past projets, we are able to continually improve our project delivery system. The following approach would be customized for each project we undertake with the City of Huntington Beach. Key Issues and City Objectives Our approach was developed to address the key issues and City objectives related to the on -call contracting vehicle used on various waterfront and coastal zone projects, based on experience completing engineering projects for City/County Public Works Departments charged with the management of recreational and public facilities and the infrastructure that supports them. • Coastal and Waterfront Projects are often located in Residential or High Public Use Areas. Most City facilities are located in areas of high public use and repairs to these facilities need to be cost-effective and minimize restrictions for public use and impact to environmental resources. GHD's design solutions for these facilities will emphasize low impact construction methods and equipment that can be utilized to develop a balance between City and contractor needs, public use, property owner concerns and environmental protections. • No "Off -the -Shelf' Design Solutions. Coastal projects are unique and because we are a multidiscipline firm, our waterfront and coastal engineers and scientists have regular working contact with other disciplines and can anticipate site -specific issues (like environmental, corrosion, geotechnical or structural concerns). (I m 0 1 O Z u Item 16. - 149 GHD I City of Huntington Beach I I HB -622- Ocean Engineering & Professional Consulting Services 113 C� 0 J 0 0 W 06 z_ l� z Q U) rr W z n Z 0 W U) • Multiple Disciplines often Required to Complete Small Projects: Projects associated with waterfront sites may likely require coordination with multiple engineering disciplines. GHD's approach takes advantage of our depth and breadth of resources, which helps assure that we have both appropriate design details and can bring customized engineering solutions to the project when necessary. • True Project Delivery often Requires More than Design: Successful project delivery depends as much on communication as design skills. Projects often benefit from an early needs assessment with the client, where opportunities to maximize the project value can be discussed. Typical Project Approach For the purposes of this illustration, we have chosen to highlight how we approach a design project. We have divided our typical approach to a project into the following three major components: Project Initiation Project Execution wpo. Closeout Each of these project elements is discussed in the following sections. Project Initiation Project initiation is one of the most critical phases of a project. Although there can be a strong desire to "get working" and produce some results, it is absolutely essential that the effort be orchestrated from the outset for a successful outcome. Project initiation often includes the following steps: • Development of a detailed scope, budget, and timeline by GHD's Project Manager • Identification of project milestones and deliverables • Defining roles and responsibilities of team members and benchmarks for tracking success • Establishment of a communication pathway for proper distribution of information • Setting up the QA/QC plan for the project • Developing a design and construction budget to meet the needs of the City As part of our project initiation phase, we develop a detailed Project Memorandum that outlines in detail the overall plan for the execution of the project. A detailed GHD's project a prcac emphasizes practical, Proactive design, Pst'ructjon, and Itir ` t ate " _. scope, budget, and schedule are included with the Project Memorandum which is reviewed with the client so that there is mutual understanding of the undertaking and roles and responsibilities of the client and consultant. We also conduct a project kickoff meeting that includes the key team members and the client. where overall project objectives and constraints are reviewed, as well as the schedule and deliverables. Project Execution Project execution is a careful combination of production of work products; coordination of individuals and subconsultants; and management of resources, budget, and time. Some projects may be divided into several logical phases, such as the following: • Phase 1: Site Reconnaissance • Phase 2: Alternatives Evaluation and Preliminary Design • Phase 3: Final Design, Specifications, and Cost Estimating • Phase 4: Bid Support • Phase 5: Construction Support, Inspection and Management Depending on the nature of the project, we may not provide all of these phases, or we may provide some additional work. Our typical approach to each of these phases is described in the following sections as an example. Phase 1: Site Reconnaissance This is one of the most important phases of a project and is used to define the characteristics of the project and scope of work, with the following consideration: • Site constraints, construction equipment access or potential limitations • Availability of existing reports, records, plans and utility maps GHD I City of Huntington Beach I RFQ On -Call Ocean Enc HB -623- -ofessional Consulting Services 114 Item 16. - 150 • Potential for geologic or structural instability (unstable seawall, coastal embankment or slope revetment, shoreline protection, landslides, etc.) • Potential for hazardous materials contamination • Public access constraints or use restrictions • Condition of any existing facilities, structures, and supporting foundations We consult with local City staff when possible since their experience can provide a wealth of information. Reconnaissance -level investigations are used to identify issues and develop a detailed approach to of the project. A memorandum summarizing the findings and our opinion of the potential implications of the findings is prepared to help guide the project. Phase 2: Alternative Evaluation Very few projects have no alternatives, and there are often various ways of achieving the overall project objectives. Sometimes there may be several major alternatives for a project (vertical seawall or bulkhead versus rip rap rock revetment) while other times there may be many minor options that the client can make based on cost, timing, and preference. It is important that alternatives be developed in sufficient detail so that the client can make important choices. GHD will typically work with the client throughout this investigation phase and prepare a summary report outlining the costs and benefits of various project alternatives. From this evaluation, we work with the client to select the approach that best meets the project and community objectives. Phase 3: Final Design, Specifications, and Cost Estimating We will complete the final project design, specifications, and cost estimate in a phased approach. Typically, we provide 50% (permitting level), 90% (preliminary), and 100% (final) design submittals. At each phase, we will review the submittal with the client and can make corrections and adjustments to refine the design as it progresses to help avoid any surprises during the process. Phase 4: Bid Support Our services during bidding depend on the contracting procedure of the client, and we typically conduct a pre - bid conference, review contractor questions during the bid phase, issue addenda to provide clarifications, and assist the client in evaluating bids. Phase 5: Construction Support, Inspection and Management We provide a full range of construction inspection and management services that include: • Preconstruction conference • Constructing surveying and staking • Review of shop drawings, submittals, and contractor pay requests • Site inspections and soil/materials testing • Preparing change orders and daily logs • Final punch list walk through, testing, and final inspection We manage our projects using our detailed procedures manual, which provides a detailed accounting of the flow of documents, requests, and instructions to the contractor. GHD's procedures help the City and contractor proceed based on clear instructions meeting the intent of the plans and specifications and that there is a clear documentation of what transpired at every step of the construction project. Project Closeout Finishing a project correctly is just as important as starting a project correctly. GHD project closeout procedures include preparation of final Contract Record Documents that are a summarization of construction contractor records of changes made during construction that materially differ from what is shown on the plans. All electronic data in the form of documents, spreadsheets, data files for models, drawings, and survey data is compiled into a standardized filing system that can be retrieved from one source when needed.

For the purpose of this RFQ, professional services for other disciplines are being separate solicited. Question 3 By signing and initialing Exhibit A: Pre -Qualification Form, will this satisfy the requirement to provide a statement, as requested in Section 9. General Requirements, as to agreement with no exceptions to the standard form of agreement or should we include a separate statement in the cover letter to this effect? Completing Exhibit A will satisfy this requirement. Item 16. - 175 HB -648- Question 4 Will covers and divider tabs be excluded from the 15-page limit? Yes Question 5 Under the Firm Qualifications section; item 5 states inclusion of resumes in this section. However, Section 2 Staffing also includes resumes for key personnel. Are we to include resumes in both sections of the Response or can resumes be included in Section 2 only (behind the Organizational chart)? Under staffing, resumes are just included once. See the last sentence under paragraph 1 of Staff. "include resumes for all key individuals as indicated in section 5) above, along with copies of any pertinent certifications" Question 6 Section 2 Staffing also states that copies of any certifications be included as a part of the RFQ response- is this necessary at this stage? Or can copies can be provided upon request? This is at the discretion of each consultant to submit "pertinent certifications". Once a consultant is selected, when required, specific certifications may be necessary at th at time. Question 7 Please clarify the maximum dollar amount for each consultant contract City will finalize exact maximu€n contract amount at a later time. Current on -call contracts have the following maximum contract amount. CM - S1,000,000 Material Testing - S250,000 Water - S1,000,000 Plan Check - S400,000 Civil - S1,000,000 Transportation - S300,000 Ocean - S350,000 Architectural - S250,000 /"" A--w- O "Q _(1i0 TtPm 16 - 171 REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS FOR ON -CALL PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ADDENDUM 3 Public Works Department CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH RFQ Released on November 28, 2017 Addendum 3 issued December 21, 2017 tem 1 6_ - 177 uR _�;n Question la Question regarding the required Caltrans forms. The City response to Question DI stated that Exhibit 10-B Suggested Consultant Evaluation Sheet This is just the evaluation form. Question Ib Are Exhibit 17-F Final Report — Utilization of Disadvantage Business Enterprises (DBE) and First -Tier Subcontractor to be included in the submittal? Depending on DBE goals established for each RF'Q, if any, and if the consultant has DBE subs, fill this out. Question 2 Exhibit 10-B is for use by evaluators and Exhibit 17-F is to be submitted with invoices. In terms of the submittal, what is the City requesting that the consultant complete on these forms? Exhibit 10-B is the rating form, so no need to fill out but disclosed to each consultant. As for Exhibit 17-F, depending on DBE goals established for each RF'Q, if any, and if the consultant has DBE subs, you should fill this out. Question 3 Based on my review of the Caltrans forms and my past experience, it's my understanding that only certain forins are required to be provided by the proposer. Below is a breakdown of my understanding of the forms. Can you please confirm whether or not this is correct? Caltrans Understanding Form # 10-B For use by the proposal evaluation committee, not to be provided by the proposer Yes 10-H One of the three cost proposal examples, to be provided by the prime consultant and the subconsultant(s) #2 for the prime consultant, and #3 pertains to Geotechnieal and Material Testing 10-I For the agency to notify proposers of the DBE requirements, not to be provided by the proposer is an info sheet 10-K To be provided by the prime consultant and subconsultant(s) Yes 10-01 To be provided by the prime consultant, with information obtained from the subconsultant(s) Yes 10-02 To be provided by the prime consultant, with information obtained from the subconsultant(s) Yes ] 0-Q To be provided by the prime consultant and subconsultant(s) 1'es 17-F To be provided by the prime consultant & 1st tier subconsultants upon the completion of an assigned project Yes Question 4 In the Construction Management RFQ it asks for NAASCO Certified inspectors. Is this applicable to this solicitation since this was also in the last on -call RFQ that was more water focused? «Ve are requiring \NAACO Certified Inspectors like what the did last time, and this RFQ for inspection is not specialized for water. Question 5 Page 4 of the RFQ document states that Consultants are required to complete ALL attached Caltrans forms in Appendix D; However, the following forms are not applicable during the proposal stage since the first form deals with scoring and the two other forms deal with DBE subs AFTER the contract has been awarded. Please confirm that these Exhibits are to be excluded from the proposal submission Exhibit 10-13, (This is the evaluation form for City to use) Exhibit 10-02 (Both prime and sub to complete as much as available during proposal stage) and Exhibit 17-F (To be provided by the prime consultant & 1st tier subconsultants upon the completion of an assigned project) Question 6 Page 7 of the RFQ document lists four bullet points (Capability of Developing Innovative or Advanced Techniques, Familiarity with State and Federal Procedures, Financial Responsibility, and Demonstrate Technical Ability). Do these four bullet points fall under the "Understanding and Methodology Section' or are they each their own separate section within D. Service Category? At the discretion of each consultant. Question 7 Page 7 of the RFQ document lists "Financial Responsibility" as a bullet point. Please clarify what kind of financials the City is requesting as this is a vague requirement. This is taken from Exhibit 10-B of Caltrans evaluation form. See Caltrans Local Assistance Procedure Manual. Question 8 Page 7 of the RFQ document lists "Demonstrate Technical Ability" as a bullet point. Please clarify what the City is requesting Consultants to show as this is a vague requirement. This is taken from Exhibit 10-B of Caltrans evaluation form. See Caltrans Local Assistance Procedure Manual. Question 9 Could we be approved as a CM through this RFQ, but not do any of the Caltrans work? City has both types of projects, Caltrans work, or just City. -em 1 F_ - 179 "P _F; Question 10 Or is the Caltrans work required as part of this On -call? For CM, consultant is to be equipped to handle Caltrans work. Question 11 Will this On -call list be used for projects other than Caltrans? Yes Question 12 Does the city anticipate releasing an RFQ for other types of work, i.e. vertical projects, or might those be included with this one? 8 categories were released simultaneously for this round. Depending on other needs, City could pursue others in the future.
