City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida Marine and Coastal Professional Engineering Consulting Services (CCNA) | RFQ No. 18‐02‐01 Aptim Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. 17 01C032018D impacts to natural resources, such as seagrass, our biologists will monitor the mitigation to document the functional success of offsetting those impacts. Some projects may not have permit‐required post‐construction surveys, but the City might choose to develop a regular underwater inspection program for your existing and future waterfront structures. APTIM can assist in the development and implementation such a program which can extend the service life of existing structures and facilitate the City 's budgeting for the repair and replacement of this infrastructure. Funding Assistance Projects along the City’s shoreline and adjacent inlets have been funded by multiple sources including the Federal Government (through the USACE), the State of Florida (through the FDEP), Miami‐Dade County, the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND), and the City itself. We recommend that the City continue this approach of open communication and coordination with these public entities. APTIM has experience in tracking these various funding sources for a variety of clients as well as additional funding options. While not typical for smaller‐scale waterfront structures, obtaining funding for a project from the Federal government is the most complicated and time‐consuming process of the potential funding authorities listed above. However, Federal funding can be significant. APTIM can monitor, review, and apply on the City’s behalf for any applicable funding available through the USACE. The State of Florida provides funding for waterfront projects through the Beach Management Funding Assistance (BMFA) Program, FWC Florida Boating Improvement Plan, FWC Boating Infrastructure Grant Program, RESTORE act, and other similar marine‐related grant programs. APTIM can provide the data needed to support funding requests on behalf of the City, as needed. APTIM has extensive experience APTIM developing storm impact analysis reports to support the securing of FEMA Public Assistance disaster relief funding for our municipal clients. We have successfully obtained Project Worksheets for the City of Deerfield Beach, Manatee County, and Indian River County for damages associated with Hurricane Hermine, Matthew, and Irma. Project Management APTIM has built its stellar reputation by satisfying the needs of clients throughout the state and the country. The majority of our work comes in the form of indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contracts that require the ability to react to as‐needed task orders that often come concurrently, involve multiple disciplines, and are to be performed in different locations. APTIM’s project management procedures support this profile of service and allow our teams to excel in their work delivery by controlling cost and schedule, while simultaneously enhancing value and quality. Our APTIM Management System (AMS) contains policies, processes, procedures, work instructions, tools and supporting documents describing the way APTIM is to execute work activities. AMS represents APTIM’s best work practices and is continually improving as the company pursues “Excellence in all we Do.” This forms the basis for our Quality Assurance/Quality Control plan as it covers all facets of a project from the proposal stage to final close‐out of the project. While AMS represents APTIM’s baseline methodology for executing business and projects, we recognize that each project is unique according to the dictates of the contract and task specifics. Our team will apply APTIM’s proven, highly successful project management system to control all aspects of contract delivery to meet the City’s goals. The primary features of our project management and control system include:
