<br />FTE'S QUALIFICATIONS
<br />
<br />FTE acknowledges that the City requires a consultant with capacity and knowledge to quickly respond and to
<br />solve problems related to one or multiple disciplines such as: transportation planning, traffic engineering,
<br />design, and public involvement that may be required to assess any of those services.
<br />
<br />FTE's previous work on similar contracts will efficiently convey ideas, perform assessments, as well as, produce
<br />reports, memorandums and analyses for the City of Sunny Isles Beach that could encompass the following
<br />elements.
<br />
<br />APPROACH TO THE TRAFFIC ENGINEERING SERVICE: : ~ .

<br />
<br />As traffic operation firm, FTE is proficient in multiple traffic software. These packages include Synchro V7/Visual
<br />Studio, HCS Plus, Transit 7F, CORSIM, ArcGIS, Petra-Pro, and Travel-Time and delay packages. Our Experience
<br />allows us to identify the appropriate package and incorporate it adequately using elements or alternatives to
<br />incorporate geo-positioning and constraints in driver behavior, delays, gap acceptance, speed, queues,
<br />maneuvers, and simulation of existing traffic patterns in the real world.
<br />
<br />Among the transportation planning and traffic engineering services FTE will be able
<br />to provide the following products:
<br />
<br />Traffic Impact Studies FTE has performed multiple traffic impact studies following
<br />the ITE's "Transportation Impact Analyses for Site Development: An ITE Proposed
<br />Recommended Practice" and the ITE's "Parking Generation" as well as Generation
<br />User's Guide. From the previous experience, we clearly understand that the critical
<br />requirements for a traffic impact study which enables the FTE to implement the
<br />review of traffic impact studies submitted to the City and make recommendations.
<br />
<br />Safety Technical Memorandums FTE has vast experience working in traffic
<br />operation and safety studies. Between 2007 and 2009, FTE has completed several
<br />intersection safety memorandums and the analysis within Miami Dade County for
<br />Miami-Dade Public Works, FDOT and MDX. Also, FTE has full access to FDOT CAR
<br />database (State Roads crash data) and is fully familiar with resolving safety concerns.
<br />In addition, our staff is trained to determine discrepancies with the accident data
<br />provided by Police Officers that may require corrections or better examination.
<br />
<br />Intersection/Arterial Analysis FTE will provide an in-depth assessment of a
<br />concerned intersection based on an analysis addressing: the impact of geometric
<br />improvements, the existing and future intersection LOS, interval and phasing timing
<br />optimization, new signal timing plans, fuel consumption over benefits like reductions
<br />in control delay and accident numbers or severity, as well as, community response
<br />among each alternative.
<br />
<br />Traffic Simulations FTE has expertise in transit micro-simulation using software
<br />such as VISSIM and Cube. In multiple projects, FTE has incorporated the results of
<br />traffic simulation work to form the basis for conclusions and recommendations to
<br />solve a range of transportation problems in such areas as freeway and arterial
<br />systems, grade-separated interchanges, traffic signal operations, maintenance of
<br />traffic plans, roundabout intersections, toll facilities, intelligent transportation
<br />systems, and the interface between autos and other travel modes.
