City of Sunny Isles Beach | RFQ No. 20-07-01 | Continuing Professional Consulting Services (CCNA) <br />Below you will find a brief synopsis of critical items of <br />interest that we follow for ALL our Construction Engineering <br />& Inspection (CEI) projects, pertaining to each scope of work <br />to be completed. <br />Roadway Construction and Maintenance projects: Our <br />proposed staffing is Construction Training Qualification <br />Program (CTQP) certified in earthwork (1 & 2), asphalt <br />paving (1 & 2), ACI (1 & 2), drill shaft, pile driving, IMSA, final <br />estimates (1 & 2), and QC manager as well as many others. <br />Asphalt and Paving: The team proposed by CGA is certified and <br />has extensive experience with milling, resurfacing, roadway <br />reconstruction, earthwork testing, utility adjustments and <br />pavement markings. The team will hold a pre-paving meeting <br />to review the specifications and plans requirements to ensure <br />compliance with contract documents. Review the asphalt <br />QC plan prior to paving, temperature testing is performed, <br />asphalt tickets collected, milling depth checked, cleanness <br />of milled surface prior to tack application, track asphalt and <br />tack application rates, quantities and ensure QC logs are <br />submitted within 48 hours. Perform cross slope checks and <br />a rolling straight edge to ensure compliance with the Florida <br />Department of Transportation (FDOT) ridability requirements, <br />noted deficiencies will be corrected. All VT tests will be <br />sampled and tested by the CEI team and performed at the <br />same frequencies listed in the FDOT standard specifications. <br />Ensure contractor uses track-less tack. CGA understands <br />the industry’s latest challenges with “tack balls”, raveling <br />and the use of non-electronic paving machines. The Senior <br />Project Engineer (SPE) or the Project Administrator (PA) <br />will be present on the field during the paving operation to <br />identify issues early and implement corrective measures. <br />Contractor’s paving machines, checked daily and the CPPR <br />process followed. <br />Earthwork: Ensure that all proper testing is performed, <br />specialized spreadsheets will be used for tracking of the <br />earthwork quantities, proper documentation in the density log <br />book, and verification of cross sections are the most major <br />issues related to earthwork on the project. De-mucking is <br />another critical operation that can impact time and cost on <br />a project. Proper tracking of quantities, ensuring complete <br />removal of the muck and proper disposal are key issues. CEI <br />team and the contractor will agree on cross sections prior to <br />backfilling to avoid delays and claims. The PA will perform QA <br />checks on the Density Log Book on weekly basis, conduct a <br />preearthwork meeting, three way calibration test and material <br />source verified. <br />Drainage: Our team will conduct a pre-activity meeting <br />prior to construction to discuss the contractor’s approach <br />and the requirements set forth in the contract plans, the <br />FDOT standard specifications and the FDOT standard index. <br />Timely submittal and review of shop drawings will be <br />critical expedite the material procurement process and help <br />expedite construction. Ensure that all filter fabric, bricks, <br />mortar and coarse aggregate is certified and sampled prior <br />to the installation of any drainage structures. Adherence to <br />elevations is essential to ensure proper drainage. Ensure <br />proper stamping and certification of drainage structures prior <br />to submittals and installation. No structure will be installed <br />without submittal of delivery ticket and proper certification. <br />Project Approach and Understanding - Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) Services <br />16
