Page 7 TAB D: PROJECT APPROACH & UNDERSTANDING RFQ: 20-07-01 Continuing Professional Services - Construction Engineering & Inspection (CEI) •Construction Phasing/MOT Review – Traffic control and construction phasing can add a tremendous cost to a project. Our team’s review focus is to reduce the impact of each construction project on the traveling public while increasing safety. In certain scenarios combining construction phasing will provide a valuable cost savings to the City. •Utilities - Coordinate the work with utility companies to eliminate impact on the construction schedule. •Remote Office – E&R inspectors are fully equipped and mobilized in their vehicles. They are connected remotely through Inter- net with laptops, on-board printers, radios and cell phones and testing equipment. This will eliminate the need for inspectors to meet in the office to discuss an issue. A photo can be taken and emailed to the Project Manager for immediate resolution. QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL An internal Quality Control/Quality Assurance plan that is performance-driven and consistently implemented ensures a high standard of professional work and an assurance of comfort to the City of Sunny Isles Beach in our abilities to perform the required services. The QA/ QC will be an ongoing daily process implemented at every level, from management to inspection staff. FDOT “Critical Requirement” and “Quality Assessment Guide Lists” are solid tools to obtaining a consistent application of review for com- pliance with the plans and specifications. The FDOT Construction Project Administration Manual (CPAM), specifically Section 3.2 Quality Control, is another tool implemented in our QA/QC process. The E&R team fully understands its responsibility for construction management, engineering, inspection and testing. As we have done in the past in managing CEI services, we will continue to ensure that construction of each project is in reasonable conformity with the plans and specifications and contract provisions. The E&R QA/QC team has significant construction experience and will provide a consistent product throughout each job assignment. Our plan is to set in place an internal Quality Assurance Program (QAP) that will provide the overall structure, policies, and procedures necessary for the successful execution of each project. The QA/QC team, led by Dan Foss, PE will conduct intermittent project reviews on a quarterly basis to ascertain contract compliance. Once the quality review document is finalized, our QA/QC team will submit a report to the City’s Project Manager that will outline any substandard performance area requiring corrective action. The same report will be submitted to Ido Shimony, PE, Sr. Project Engineer, who will see that the recommended corrective action is performed within ten working days. Once corrective action is achieved, the QC team will submit an updated report documenting the corrective action taken and submit it to the City’s Project Manager with file copies maintained in our quality assurance records.
