Calvin, Giordano & Associates, Inc. <br /> A SAFEbuilt Company <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach, FL | RFQ # 26-07-01 | Continuing Professional Architectural and Engineering Consulting Services (CCNA) | 8 <br />Below, you will find the Top 8 reasons why CGA stands out from its competition: <br />1. Multidisciplinary In-House Team for Seamless Integration <br />Unlike many competitors, CGA offers a fully integrated, multidisciplinary team—including landscape architects, civil engineers, surveyors <br />& mappers, transportation/transit/traffic engineers, CEI professionals, grant writers, construction administrators, and construction project <br />managers—all under one roof. This integrated structure promotes efficiency; consistent, streamlined communication; faster turnaround; and <br />holistic servicing that addresses infrastructure, environment, and community concerns in one cohesive strategy. <br />2. Proximity to Job Site <br />CGA’s headquarters in Fort Lauderdale is less than fourteen (14) miles from Sunny Isles Beach City Hall. <br />3. Seventeen (17) Years of Experience with the City <br />CGA is very proud to state that we have provided a broad, diverse array of services to the City since 2009. Because of this longstanding working <br />relationship, we are notably familiar with each others’ workstyles, and our collaborative efforts have repeatedly proven to be successful and <br />effective. Along those lines, by sticking with CGA, the City will not experience any lag time that occurs while transitioning to a new contractor. <br />4. Proven Long-term Success throughout South Florida <br />From the beginning, much of our reputation was built on repeat business with clients from the public and private sectors in South Florida. <br />Our success is reflected in both the quality of work we consistently provide and the personal approach we take with each client. The winning <br />combination is affirmed by our large number of repeat/long-term municipal clients. Because of our diversity, CGA can control the entire process, <br />offering a host of professional services as a one-source partner, or efficiently tackle time-sensitive individual projects, providing customized <br />solutions with handpicked teams of highly experienced professionals. Taking advantage of our diversified staff’s experience and knowledge <br />is what distinguishes CGA as a professional consultant and what allows our team to repeatedly complete projects on time, under budget and <br />exceeding expectations while doing so. <br />5. Stability and Depth of Resources <br />In 2018, CGA joined the SAFEbuilt family of companies, providing our clients with the stability and depth of resources of a national company with <br />service delivery at a local level. CGA provides a comprehensive range of community development services to municipalities throughout Florida. <br />We leverage our extensive local knowledge alongside the broader capabilities of SAFEbuilt to deliver each client the highest levels of service, <br />expertise, and resources. <br />As part of the SAFEbuilt family, we will focus on continued growth in Florida, implementing new technologies and expanding our services along <br />the way to meet the ever-changing needs of our clients. We strive to develop new partnerships with organizations and businesses to provide <br />superior services and create an even more comprehensive suite of solutions for our clients. As the world of construction continues to evolve, <br />CGA remains committed to providing its clients with the best solutions, helping them achieve their goals and create a better future. <br />6. Perfectly Aligned Goals <br />Our core values embody our approach to our working relationships, as well as our philosophy in providing services. Our team stands apart <br />from others by remaining dedicated to a client-centered method based on our core values of Service, Integrity, Improvement, Teamwork, and <br />Respect. Our goals are perfectly aligned with the goals of the City, and together we can meet your objectives to invigorate your culture through <br />scalable, sustainable, and affordable business practices. <br />7. Nearly Nine Decades of Experience with Barrier Island Communities <br />Founded in Hollywood in 1937, we have provided related services to barrier island communities (e.g., Hollywood Beach) for 89 years. For <br />example, we understand the deIicate balance between land use, conservation, and resilience—particularly vital for a barrier island community. <br />Our team is well-versed in providing services and crafting plans that protect natural resources while aligning with federal, state, and local policies. <br />8. Effective Emergency Response <br />CGA is proud of our history supporting municipal agencies in their time of need. In the aftermath of storms, CGA has been able to assist <br />numerous municipalities in the recovery effort. CGA has repeatedly deployed our team of over 80 National Incident Management System (NIMS) <br />and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) certified staff to properly document the damage, manage, and assist in the recovery effort. <br />More specifically, CGA staff was part of the Hurricane Ian post-assessment and recovery effort in the Village of Estero and assisted Estero, as <br />well as barrier island communities in the Tampa Bay region, in the aftermath of Hurricanes Debby and Milton. CGA’s support during these events <br />assisted the municipalities in achieving their refund of recovery costs with FEMA funds. <br />Why Is CGA the Best Qualified Candidate?
