On July 1, 2020, City staff advertised a Request for Proposal (RFP) for On-Call Surveying and Plan Review Consultant Services on PlanetBids, and received proposals from eleven (11) firms. This is a three-year contract for annual amount of $100,000 with the option for two, one-year extensions.

Staff recommends awarding a three-year contract to Michael Baker International in the annual amount of $85,000, and a three-year contract to NV5 in the annual amount of $15,000. A total aggregate annual contract amount of $100,000 with two, one-year extensions.

This schedule will serve as a guide to conducting and monitoring the progress of the work and to assure projects are completed on time and within budget. To assure accurate monitoring and tracking of documents, revisions and progress, a document tracking and control system will be developed. We will meet with City project representatives regularly and maintain constant communication to assure successful and timely delivery of the project. COST CONTROL We are able to continually review and evaluate a project’s cost through all project phases to enable informed and timely decision-making by the entire project team. Cost control techniques include: reviewing methodology of preforming the work; staff continuity, leveraging available technologies; and accurately tracking project progression and billing. Our team will analyze client goals, technical requirements, alternative methods, and any site specific safety concerns which define the optimum scope within the budget, assuring long-term flexibility and value. SCHEDULE CONTROL The key to effective schedule control is to measure actual progress and compare it to planned progress on a regular basis and to take necessary corrective action immediately. We propose to supplement each major task as identified in the master project schedule with a supplemental schedule to keep careful track of where each individual component stands. We identify problems that may result from delays and readily provide the opportunity to modify the schedule, as required. This process assures the completion of your projects on schedule. INNOVATIVE AND SUCCESSFUL APPROACHES Our team focuses on providing safe, cost-effective, and innovative methods to assure that the needs of the City staff are met or exceeded. Our experienced technical staff provides lower-impact alternatives in order to develop the least disruptive and least expensive designs. In addition, the NV5 team utilizes the latest in Land Survey Hardware/ SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA OFFICE LOCATIONS • City of Palm Springs • City of Palm Desert • City of La Quinta • Cathedral City • City of Indio • City of San Diego • County of San Diego • Imperial County Transit • City of Carlsbad • City of El Cajon • City of Poway City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 12 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK Software to facilitate timely, efficient and innovative solutions for our clients.

Utilizing this technique will guarantee adequate technical support, thorough review and analysis of project issues, consistency in decisions and recommendations, and will provide a concise list of tasks to be accomplished by each team member and a specific time schedule to complete the task. This constant communication, in conjunction with in-person meetings, allows our staff to meet project milestones. QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL For every Survey project, NV5 uses a time-tested and proven project quality manual, which describes the project quality process to be followed during the execution of survey work and project deliverables. Furthermore, our experience has taught us that QA/QC must be performed at each step of a project in order to assure that schedules are being meet. As such we undergo the following quality reviews: Project Concept Review: Reviews basic concepts for feasibility and conformance to project criteria and evaluates engineering decisions based on cost, constructability and risk management. Discipline Review: Verifies the work for each of the technical disciplines, including sub consultants. Each sub consultant discipline has a review checklist for each submittal to assure technical accuracy and that there are no conflicts with the civil design and other disciplines. Graphics/CAD Standards Review: Verifies that drawings meet graphic and CAD standards for each project, taking into consideration: color; weight; level style; and level. Project Manager Review: Confirms that project deliverables conform to the scope of work and that documents supplied by others (i.e., client, sub consultants, etc.) are properly incorporated. In-House Constructability Review: In-house construction managers and inspectors review the plans to assure feasibility of construction and coordination of drawings. Client Comment Review: Assures that client comments have been addressed; we will either use our standard comment letter response or one provided by the City. Coordination Review Meeting: Coordinate all work of the disciplines. QA/QC Review: Independent review to verify the accuracy, completeness and coordination of drawings, specifications and cost estimates for all design disciplines. OPEN LINES OF COMMUNICATION Throughout the years, the success of our on-call performance has been due to our close communication and coordination with our public agency clients. By integrating our team with agency staff, we reduce costly inefficiencies that often delay project schedules. We have developed specific procedures to aid in guiding and assuring that project communication between NV5 and Agency Stakeholders is actively maintained and enforced throughout the contract life cycle. Our team’s chain of command is outlined in our organizational chart, found in the “Firm Staffing and Key Personnel” section of this proposal. DEPTH OF RESOURCES NV5’s local offices throughout Southern California, including Palm Desert and San Diego have a combined depth of resources to efficiently support the needs of this contract. Our experience, local presence, and commitment to the area allows our team to be even more responsive to your needs. NV5 is very familiar with the City’s service area, as we are currently working on, or have successfully completed, numerous projects in the region. This assures that there will be no learning curve when we work on your projects as we operate with a working knowledge of your staff, processes and environment, enabling us to provide outstanding cost- and time efficient services.

We take pride in providing value added services to small and large projects alike. Our team is locally proven with a reputation of providing services in a way that saves time, understands the client needs, and becomes part the client team. Moreover, we believe that success of any project is based on the following key factors: 1. Understanding the Scope of Work: Based on our experience providing on-call surveying to multiple agencies, we bring our most experienced team to this opportunity. NV5 has successfully performed and delivered every item in the scope of work. Additionally, we know that in order to successfully complete projects the NV5 project manager and staff must: • Always act as an extension of City staff • Maintain a high level of knowledge of City procedures including invoicing • Be flexible • Be extremely responsive • Have the ability and desire to create great working relationships • Be a resource to City project managers and staff • Provide comprehensive land surveying services to managers and staff in support of a very wide range of projects • Have a commanding knowledge and use of technology to always increase the timeliness and quality of deliverables • Always consider City objectives • Perform all projects with safety in mind—both for our surveyors and the public 2. Experience Level of the Project Manager and Staff assigned to the Project: Our previous experience providing on-call surveying for agencies similar to the City affords NV5 an understanding of required standards and our commitment to delivering successful projects. The NV5 team will work alongside City project managers to successfully complete all requested assignments. NV5 has a well-earned reputation of meeting our promised commitments to deliver quality projects on time and within budget. 3. Consultant’s Commitment to Achieving the Highest Standard of Care: We maintain this commitment which comes through the implementation of Quality Control and Quality Assurance, and the ethical commitment to doing what is right. 4. A Realistic Schedule and Efficient Implementation: To be able to complete the project on time and with all the tasks accomplished fully, we believe that a realistic schedule is essential. For this, we schedule tasks and activities and adhere to it; i.e. “Plan the work and work the Plan.” This includes creating project schedule milestones and conducting progress reviews, both with the project team of NV5, our subconsultants, and with City Staff. 5. Effective Communication: In addition to having a clear understanding of the City’s anticipated scope of services, we will coordinate and communicate effectively with key team members and subconsultants. 6. Effective Use of Technology: We effectively use state-of-the-art money saving technologies such as UAV-mounted LiDAR and close-range aerial photogrammetry and terrestrial HDS. NV5’s project team will bring our combined experience on a wide variety of surveying projects, including GPS geodetic and conventional control surveying, fixed-wing aerial photogrammetry and conventional topography, aerial LiDAR and HDS, lease platting, legal description writing and review, utility surveys, and general consulting to provide professional services that meet immediate and long-range goals for the City. While we have the experience and equipment for the latest high- tech surveying techniques, we also know when, and when not, to use it to provide the most cost-efficient surveying to the City. 7. Ability to Respond Quickly: We understand the nature of the City’s needs. Our past experience with various agencies sometimes required that NV5 immediately meet with agency staff and mobilize to allocate resources for tasks that were critical in nature. NV5 routinely responds to work requests on the same day. City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 14 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK 8. Act as an Extension of the City: Our team strives to act as an extension of City Staff. As such, we must represent the City and have its interest as a foremost priority. We know the value of a quick response, being available for questions and comments, and knowing the City’s personnel and procedures. Our approach and our team’s reputation for responsive, high quality surveying, mapping, and GIS services will enable us to provide the required data on time and within budget. Based on the scope of work defined in the Request for Proposal, and our many years of experience providing on-call surveying, the NV5 team has developed a technical and professional approach to complete the required on-call surveying tasks. NV5 survey professionals are seasoned experts in providing the following tasks: • Review, process, and approve tract maps, parcel maps, street vacations/dedications, lot Monument Inspection line adjustment/parcel map waivers, and related documents for compliance with the California State Subdivision Map Act requirements and other applicable codes and regulations • Maintain Citywide vertical and horizontal survey monuments and bench marks; coordinate City surveying functions • Stamp and sign all surveying related documents, as necessary, as acting City Surveyor. • Review and provide comments for various engineering plans such as but not limited to street improvement plans, storm drain plans, grading plans, Water Quality Management Plans (WQMP), and hydrology reports • Monument Inspection • Topographic Surveys • Aerial Mapping - Conventional and UAV • Horizontal and Vertical Control Surveys • As-Built Surveys • Utility Location Surveys • Right-of-Way Surveys • Terrestrial HDS Data Collection • Boundary Determination • Easement Acquisition/Easement Vacation/Legal Descriptions • Legal, Survey, and Engineering Document Review • Land Acquisition/Exchange • Construction Staking NV5 has developed very thorough procedures and guidelines for completing requested work. We have successfully delivered projects that were on time, within the agreed upon budgets, and as expected. Based on our experience and the proposed scope of work, we present a general workflow/approach to delivering professional services as follows: • When NV5 receives a request for work we thoroughly review and document the work to be performed with City Staff. We will immediately begin a dialog to understand the specific requirements and usually visit the project site to get a better understanding of the specific requirements and unique challenges given the work environment. We will generally attend a kick- off meeting to review project elements, deadlines, and deliverables. We will attempt to identify physical constraints and issues such as access, right-of-way, utilities, and safety. From the start we establish direct lines of communication between the NV5 project manager and the City project manager to answer any questions and to verify the deliverables and the schedule. • For each assignment, the NV5 project manager, with input from the client, will develop a detailed scope of work to meet the specific project criteria. The project manager will consider, plan, and document the approach, and include items such as methodology, equipment, software, completion date with milestones, budget, note keeping, forms, digital mapping format, safety and security concerns, environmental issues, permits, right-of-entry, methods of access and travel, and final product. • Before we perform the surveying, the requested work is put into writing in the form of a QQTR (Quality, Quantity, Time, and Resources) Work Request. This way, the staff that is performing the work has a chance to review the written request with the project manager. By doing so, staff can ask questions, review the budget, discuss procedures, and understand the deadlines. • When the work is performed, the performing staff must review their work and initial the work in order to certify that they have reviewed the work and made any changes or editions. City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 15 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK • When the survey field work is handed in to the office, the team leader, or project manager must review the work before it is converted into mapping data or delivered to the client. • Legal descriptions and other data created in the office must be reviewed by another licensed professional. • Before delivery of all material, the team leader or project manager reviews the work to make sure that work has met or exceeded expectations. In addition to work flow considerations, the team will become aware of, and comply with all applicable administrative requirements. We are experts at payroll reporting, prevailing wages regulations, and various insurance reporting requirements. SAFETY The NV5 team is well-trained in current safety procedures. All staff undergoes a background check and is subject to routine drug screening. We have also attended task- specific training and understand the rules for general safe driving. Our vehicles have identifying placards. We carry amber safety lights on the vehicles, use safety cones when working in and around any traffic or aircraft, wear long pants, boots, hard hats, and reflecting safety vests at all times. We are aware of general safety regulations and regularly communicate with agency personnel to discuss safety concerns. We hold weekly safety meetings and all field staff is CPR certified. QA/QC PROCESS NV5 is committed to perform and deliver quality projects to our clients on time and within budget. Our main objective focuses on prevention of deficiencies and project problems, not correction. The NV5 team has a long- standing commitment to the formalized process of Quality Control (doing it right the first time) and Quality Assurance (checking to make sure it was done right). We are committed to providing service to our clients that exceeds project requirements. Our team members take pride in their reputation for creative, thoughtful, and successful surveying and mapping projects. At NV5, we firmly believe that dedication to quality pays off. Most of our work comes from repeat clients because of our commitment to quality assurance and quality control. For each project NV5 is tasked with by the City, a project-specific Quality Assurance/Quality Control process will be developed and followed. This process will be incorporated into the project milestone schedule and will list the significant QA/QC activities including review times, duration of activity, a description of the QA/QC activity, and the identification of the individual responsible for the task. DELIVERABLES FOR QA/QC • Project-specific Quality Plan • Quality Assurance for each deliverable • Quality Control check-list • Evaluation of QA/QC procedures • Quality Management Every member of our team is part of the QA/QC process. Our team will survey, map, draft, and manage your project to exceed quality goals and expectations. To achieve these goals, QA/QC includes staff throughout the organization, from our field surveyors, drafters, and survey technicians up to our project manager and licensed professionals. We insist that quality is everyone’s job, not just those who are listed as our QA/QC lead person on the project organization chart. Our approach to Quality Management is founded on the basic philosophy that quality is a core value. Each team member takes great pride that we have established and maintained a reputation as an organization with high standards. Our philosophy for providing quality is ingrained in each employee and they are expected to deliver the highest quality service and product to our clients. Schedule ON-TIME DELIVERY WITHIN BUDGET The cornerstone of the NV5 team’s success is our philosophy that we act as an extension of our client’s staff. To be successful, the project team must work closely with County staff to identify and address key issues and concerns early, and to plan how the issues and concerns are to be addressed. Early issue identification comes from having an in-depth knowledge of local issues and concerns, combined with extensive experience, and technical expertise. City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 16 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK MAINTAIN PROJECT SCHEDULE One of the project manager’s tasks is to develop a comprehensive survey schedule that identifies all critical tasks and the inter-relationships of the project, and then to effectively use it to enable tracking of these critical path items. PROGRESS REPORT AND MEETINGS The schedule is closely monitored with progress reports prepared at appropriate project milestones. We hold regular meetings to monitor project progress which include project stakeholders. Progress and coordination meetings follow a set agenda and feature review of an action item list with minutes of the meeting released within several days of the meeting. WORKLOAD One of the NV5 team’s strengths is our dedication to providing the appropriate resources to complete projects on schedule. Prior to submitting a proposal, our standard procedure requires a careful evaluation of the types and volume of projects under contract, together with the proposed work requirements. This evaluation is performed to make sure we can meet our schedule commitments. APPROACH TO PLAN CHECK PROJECTS Our plan check process highlights the tools and techniques we will employ to deliver quality, accurate, timely, and responsive plan checks: • Reliable and Responsive Service. Our project manager will provide proactive communication, utilize proven project management tools and best practices, and will anticipate your needs and quickly respond with accurate and detailed information every step of the way. We are available to meet with the City at kickoff and progress meetings to discuss procedures, projects, and to maintain momentum and project schedules. • Efficiently Meet Turnaround Deadlines and Maintain Development Momentum. An emphasis will be placed on our staff’s experience with the City and project requirements to proactively facilitate communication and processing. We will work to assure proven quality assurance and schedule control measures are implemented. • Maintain Accuracy and Cost Savings Through Proven Processes and Continuity. We can implement integrated, standardized processes including electronic plan checks that will be utilized by our seasoned staff member who deliver plan check comments that are consistent, thorough, accurate, and done right, the first time. INTEGRATED PLAN CHECK PROCESS The step-by-step review process that we follow for every plan check/map review assures that review standards are consistently implemented on each and every project. We will implement a comprehensive program based on best practices to validate that each and every review is thorough, accurate, consistent, and timely. This system’s success is based on thousands of hours of practical, real- world experience by our dedicated personnel and their unique ability to interact quickly and efficiently with your staff. The specific action items in our process include: • Coordination and Communication: Our staff will handle the necessary administrative functions, such as project tracking, managing project controls, maintaining and distributing communications, reviewing agendas and ordinance issues, and fielding calls on project status. • Analyzing Submittals: Our staff will review and assess initial submittals for completeness, review title sheets and non-technical issues; maintain files; monitor due dates; monitor contract budget and status tracking reports; and coordinate invoicing. Consistency will be maintained by assigning the project to the same reviewer that performed the previous reviews, unless circumstances dictate otherwise. • Facilitating Quality Reviews: Our experienced public works plan reviewer will routinely review agency standards, ordinances, guidelines, and update checklists, write comment letters, coordinate project returns, attend review meetings, and communicate comments to the applicant and designers. Because of our depth of resources and project tools (checklists, comment letters), reassigned projects can be reviewed without missing deadlines or causing unnecessary rechecks. City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 17 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK • Providing Expertise: Our expert will provide a quality, comprehensive review of plans, studies, maps and reports in accordance with all accepted engineering practices, the Subdivision Map Act, applicable regulations and City development standards. Our expert is also available to meet with the project’s designer to clarify comments and discuss solutions, as well as provide full and complete reviews for each project that will minimize the number of resubmittals by the customer. PLAN REVIEW CHECKLISTS One of the key elements to providing quality, consistent plan checks and map checks is the development of a review checklist based on the standards of the agency. As noted above, we have developed checklists for review of grading and improvement projects in the City and several other local agencies, a sample of one is shown below. ELECTRONIC PLAN REVIEWS Benefits to electronic plan checking include reducing turnaround times, streamlining record keeping, and reducing paper waste. Another benefit is that it allows for online meetings, where City staff, developers’ engineers, and plan reviewers can coordinate, review details, and discuss review comments in real time without the added necessity of travel. NV5 staff has experience using Bluebeam Revu software for our review and comment process, and is prepared to use this tool for City plan checks. Public Works Inspection and Plan Check Services | City of Beaumont 4 Methodology write comment letters; coordinate project returns; attend review meetings; and communicate comments to the applicant and designers. Because of our depth of resources and project tools (checklists, comment letters), reassigned projects can be reviewed without missing deadlines or causing unnecessary rechecks.

Caution notes for all existing telephone and utility lines Lot numbers, slope, dimensions, and pad elevations Top and toe of slopes, grade breaks shown Recognized County or IID Benchmark location shown Geotechnical report submitted Letter(s) of permission submitted PROJECT DELIVERABLES Deliverables for a typical plan review or map check project include: • Cost confirmation letter (if required) • Signed and sealed comment letter with checklist (hard copy and PDF) • Redlined plans/maps (hard copy and PDF) PLAN CHECK SUBMITTALS SEQUENCE Each submittal will generally conform to the following sequence. FIRST PLAN CHECK The initial plan check will be comprehensive, and identify all significant issues. It is important to present significant issues to the developer as early in the review process as possible, so that the developer can respond in a timely manner. In addition to the typical scope of services, the first plan check will include the following • Plan Review Checklist • Review of Tentative Map and Conditions of Discretionary Approval • Review of Previously Established Environmental Conditions • Analysis of Easement Requirements and Right-Of-Way Needs • Identification of Required Coordination with Inter- Agency Jurisdictional Issues SUBSEQUENT SUBMITTALS Plan check resubmittals are reviewed for completeness and to determine if all previous comments have been fully addressed. If the developer has made significant changes to the submittal, new review comments may be necessary. The NV5 plan checker will identify remaining deficiencies in the documents for subsequent reiterations of the plan check submittals. NV5 will also review bond estimates for the City to prepare the bond and agreement documents. In compliance with State law, all plan check services will be performed by or under the responsible charge of a California licensed professional eligible to prepare and sign the type of map, plan, or professional study being reviewed. All plan review memos will be signed and sealed by a duly licensed professional. City of Palm Desert | On-Call Consultant Services for Surveying and Civil Engineering Plan Review NV5.COM | 18 PROPOSED METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE WORK FINAL REVIEW We anticipate that after no more than three plan checks, NV5 will request that the developer submit final plans and associated documents, as required by the City for final review. NV5 will confirm that plans and/or maps are complete and that all associated documents have been submitted. NV5 will then provide an approval letter and other required documents and transmittals, depending on the type of review. MEETINGS If the City feels that a pre-submittal meeting is necessary, depending on the size and complexity of the project, NV5’s project manager will participate in a pre-submittal meeting with the City’s staff and developer. Typically, meetings with City staff and the engineer of work are necessary for large or complex projects at the completion of the first plan check. An additional meeting may be necessary prior to request for final submittal, to assure that all conditions of approval and City requirements have been met. RETURN COMPLETED COMMENTS NV5 will deliver the completed review documents directly to the applicant’s representative. When necessary, the NV5 plan check team will review all comments and findings with City staff. City staff may also suggest changes or revisions to NV5’ review comments through the established QA/QC process. QC PROCESSES NV5 will prepare transmittals for routing to the applicant/ developer and re-submittal checklists for subsequent plan checks.

REVIEW SCHEDULES Our team is familiar with the legal requirements of California Government Code Section 65943 as it relates to the completeness of submittals and review turnaround times by local agencies. Our team will screen every submittal for completeness, and we have no reservations about rejecting incomplete development submittal packages if justified. We are committed to maintaining turnaround times for reviews that will follow the standards we have previously established in working with City staff. These review times are measured from the time we receive the submittal, to the time when we return the comment letter to City staff.
