Tab 2. Qualifications Why Choose the Kiewit Team? As we will demonstrate in the following pages, our team not only has the experience and credentials necessary for the construction of the North Bay Road Pedestrian Bridge, we are uniquely qualified to deliver this project with a focus on safety, quality, and value. In addition to some of the broader benefits mentioned earlier —our nationwide network of resources, self - performance capabilities, and strong safety record —we possess an abundance of technical bridge building expertise and regional knowledge that will make the entire experience more efficient and enjoyable for the City and the community. With much more than the specified five years of experience with similar construction, KISC has played a major role in building infrastructure throughout the fast - growing southeastern United States. A large portion of these projects have been roadways and bridges, including a wide variety of bridges throughout Florida. With differing sizes, types and structure, many of these bridges have involved working in and over water. From protecting manatees to working effectively and safely from barges and trestles, we understand the specific challenges involved with working near water. Many of our bridges also have involved a pedestrian portion. For instance, an important part of the scope of work on the recent Bear Cut and West Bridges Emergency Rehabilitation project involved widening and adding a shared use path for pedestrians and cyclists. On this project, we were able to maintain heavy cyclist and pedestrian traffic throughout the construction period. In addition, many of our bridges were constructed in close proximity to businesses and structures. On our 5th Street Bascule Bridge project, we held public town hall meetings to discuss the impacts of construction and worked with area businesses to lessen those impacts. This technical and local experience is embodied in key personnel such as Project Director Frank DiGilio and Project Manager Nick Sosa. Together, these residents of southern Florida have 40 years of industry experience and have been involved with building more than a dozen projects featuring bridges. Frank, Nick and the other key team members will utilize our methodologies built on years of project experience and strategies, innovative construction solutions, and in -house expertise to provide a cost - effective, and a construction phasing plan that will deliver the project successfully — safely, on time, and within budget. Two of our primary focuses are safety and quality, which are highlighted in the overviews below. ISKiewitConstruction of the North Bay Road Pedestrian Emergency Bridge I No. 14 -09 -01
