We recognize that our strong credentials and resources are not enough <br />to meet your needs; however, we are well aware that the ability to <br />respond quickly and efficiently is imperative to guarantee successful <br />performance. Most assuredly we have that response capability and will <br />be there when you need us <br />This contract requires a management plan designed to specifically <br />address the staffing, monitoring, planning, and communications <br />challenges that can inevitably occur. Our management plan will set <br />forth well- documented and understandable procedures, allowing staff <br />to be efficiently managed. Specifically, our management plan provides: <br />• An efficient management system, with clearly defined roles and <br />responsibilities for scope, schedule and budget; <br />• A Project Manager, once a project is assigned, as the primary point -of- contact for the City; <br />• Quick- turnaround capability; <br />• Compliance with individual task schedules and budgets; <br />• Flexibility to respond to changes in scope and direction; and <br />• Quality assurance and quality control throughout all phases of a project. <br />We are a firm dedicated to the timely and cost - efficient delivery of services. In fact, when the FDOT released its annual <br />summary of design overruns (time and money), K &S ranked among the best of the over two hundred firms surveyed. In the <br />six -year period studied, K &S designed and surveyed twelve projects with a construction value in excess of $120 million. No <br />other firm selected by FDOT in that six -year period completed this volume of work, while maintaining such low overruns <br />in cost and time. <br />Because we understand our clients' desire for a consultant that can deliver projects on time and schedule while <br />maintaining quality, we establish and implement a Quality Control Plan on all our projects. Our Quality Control <br />Plan is based on the philosophy that: <br />• Quality is achieved by proper planning, coordination, supervision, and the appropriate use of skilled personnel; <br />• Quality is controlled through checking, reviewing and monitoring of work activities by individuals outside of the Team; <br />• Quality is verified by having a Senior Manager performing QA/QC functions; and <br />• Quality is assured through independent reviews by qualified staff through each stage of project development. <br />Conclusion <br />As summarized above and explained throughout this submittal, K &S should be your first choice for this important contract. <br />We understand the significance of your decision, and simply request that during your review of our submittal, you give <br />particular consideration to the strengths that K &S will bring to the City. ServingYOU is our top priority and we look <br />forward to the opportunity. As Team Project Manager, I will ensure that your expectations are exceeded. <br />Please do not hesitate to contact me at (954)776 -1616 or at thall @ksfla.com should you have any questions. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Tim J. all <br />Vice President, Civil Engineering <br />
