i) e Consulting Engineering & Science Inc 4. Approach / Methodology The City of Sunny Isles Beach has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the services of a Civil Engineering firm (roadway and traffic design; and roadway construction engineering) for the preparation of 100% construction plans for a driveway cut off of Collins Avenue (SRA -IA) south of 183rd Street into a privately owned commercial property. The RFQ states that the selected Consultant shall provide Traffic / Transportation / Civil / Consulting services in a prompt, effective, and efficient manner for this project. The work shall include, but not be limited to, preliminary development through permitting and subsequent close -out of the project, a site assessment based on existing information and field reviews; coordination with the staff from the Florida Department of Transportation, the City of Sunny Isles, Miami -Dade County and private owners for preliminary reviews and comments. The CES Team project approach is task based incorporating the scope of services that are required for the success of this project. The major tasks are to include: Task 1: Pre - Engineering & Conceptual Design Task 2: Design Development Task 3: Final Design / Construction Documents Task 4: Permitting Task 5: Bidding & Award Task 6: Construction Administration Task 1: Pre - Engineering & Conceptual Design This task is easily the most important to the overall success of the project. In addition to initiating a working relationship with the City's project team, it is the task where most of the important information for the project will be collected, assembled and generated. A detailed inventory of the existing conditions will be collected which will include but not limited to vehicular flow of traffic, utilities, drainage system, landscaping and streetscape, etc. The Kimley Horn report justifying the driveway changes will also be reviewed and incorporated in the Site Assessment Report. Meetings with all the appropriate regulatory agencies to review the project and establish each agency's conditions of approval will also be conducted. These early meetings with the agencies will serve well to generate the confidence of agency staff in the project and the CES Team. During these data collection efforts, the CES Team will work closely with City staff to finalize the Conceptual Plan and present it to the appropriate City committees and Boards to secure their approval to more forward. The CES Team will attend meetings and /or update the City regularly. Minutes will be prepared for all meetings held and distributed to all in attendance. Once all of this data collection is complete; meetings held; and, applicable City internal approvals secured, the project can proceed to the next task. City RFP No. 11 -11 -01 22
