<br />KEY BISCAYNE CSC (CONTINUING ARCHITECTURAL
<br />& ENGINEERING SERVICES)
<br />As part of the Continuing Professional Services Agreement, task orders include:
<br />CEI Services – Stormwater Drainage Improvements and Roadway Resurfacing: CES provided
<br />construction engineering inspection services during drainage and roadway improvements to
<br />maintain the Village’s infrastructure along three independent areas within the Village: Areas 1, 2,
<br />and 4. The improvements included installing new curbs, modifying existing catch basins, installing
<br />new concrete pads, milling and resurfacing, and landscaping. CES was responsible for visiting
<br />the field, preparing daily reports for those field visits, inspecting construction to assure it meets
<br />Village standards, confirming the contractor is adhering to Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
<br />requirements, documenting progress of construction, and producing punchlist at project completion.
<br />CEI Services – Beach Park Renovation: CES is providing construction engineering inspection
<br />services for this project, which includes improvements to the existing park facilities, including
<br />selective demolition, concrete and structural repairs, rough carpentry and boardwalk improvements,
<br />metal roofing, railings, stone finishes, exterior painting, electrical upgrades, exterior lighting, video
<br />surveillance infrastructure, earthwork, and landscape restoration.
<br />Stormwater Program – Zone 1 (K-8 Basin) Resiliency Improvements Estimate and Value Engineering
<br />Services: CES provided independent peer review and cost estimating services, which included a
<br />detailed review of the design and construction cost estimate prepared by AECOM. CES assessed
<br />the level of design completion, identified missing elements in both the plans and estimate, and
<br />provided recommendations to address the gaps. Leveraging our experience with similar stormwater
<br />infrastructure projects, CES revised quantity takeoffs, incorporated omitted scope items, and
<br />validated or adjusted unit prices to align with current market conditions. The result was a more
<br />accurate and complete cost estimate to support the Village’s decision-making and funding strategy.
<br />Design for Community Center Grinder Pump Removal: CES is designing a new connection to the
<br />existing gravity sewer system for the Village of Key Biscayne Community Center after the elimination
<br />of the existing grinder pump station in the Community Center parking garage. Scope includes
<br />confirming the feasibility of the project, including reviewing survey and as-builts and coordinating
<br />with Village personnel and grinder station maintenance personnel, as well as preparing design
<br />drawings. Project deliverables include 60%, 90%, and 100% (bid set) design plans, as well as permit
<br />set design plans, including assisting in permitting services.
<br />Separately, CES provided interim leadership and infrastructure support for the Village’s Public
<br />Works Department. During this time, CES assisted Village staff serving in the temporary role of
<br />Interim Public Works Director. In this capacity, CES performed plans reviews, reviewed upcoming
<br />solicitations and recently awarded contracts, assisted contractors working on construction projects,
<br />communicated with FPL regarding power outages, provided public outreach addressing residents’
<br />concerns, and assisted Village staff with their upcoming stormwater initiative.
