City of Sunny Isles Beach RFQ No. 18-11-01 | Consulting Engineering Services for Golden ShoresPump Station Rehabilitation (CCNA) QUALIFICATION INFORMATION AND ASSIGNED PERSONNEL We have assembled a team of qualified professionals who have completed projects of similar scope, who possess the diversity of technical skills required for execution of this project, and who have a full understanding of the requirements and intricacies of this project. The team is fully committed to dedicating the necessary manpower, expertise, and attentiveness to ensure that Sunny Isles Beach meets its objectives for this pump station rehabilitation project. We are committed to keep the personnel and/or principals named in the proposal assigned to the project throughout the period of the contract and understand that diversions and substitutions are only allowed if approved in writing by the City. The CGA Team will be led by Curt Keyser, Director of Civil Engineering, who will be supported by the task leaders. Under his management, there will be continuous communication with the City’s Project Manager and staff to update them on project status and progress. Mr. Keyser will be responsible for allocating resources for the CGA team while the task leaders handle the day to day management and technical components. Mr. Keyser and the team have been operating successfully together in these roles for more than 4 years and have a proven record of success and great communication with each other and more importantly, with the City. This team successfully completed the analysis, design, permitting and bidding of a large drainage improvement project for the City of Hallandale Beach. This project is a good example of many components the City is looking for in this pump station rehabilitation project. The pump station site sits within a residential neighborhood and was designed to aesthetically fit-in with the neighborhood and not look like a drainage pump station. Since the residential neighborhood experiences both frequent, high intensity and longer duration rain events, the pumps were installed with variable frequency drives (VFD’s) allowing the motors to adjust to the needs of the system. Since the Hallandale project is pumping into injection wells, the project had to get FDEP permits and is required to provide a comprehensive monitoring system with remote control and monitoring capabilities for both the City and FDEP. The monitoring system allows the City employees monitor the system and receive any requested alarms notifications while FDEP can remotely monitor the pressures of the wells. This is the second project FDEP has permitted with these conditions, the first one (Hallandale NE Quadrant Drainage) has been in operation for more than 2 years. The Hallandale Beach project also includes an emergency stand-by generator with the capacity to run both pumps for 72 hours in the event of power failure. This project, as well as others demonstrated in the attached sheets, supports why the CGA team lead by Mr. Keyser has the experience and knowledge to successfully design and permit the pump station rehabilitation. The individual key personnel experience is highlighted below. PROJECT MANAGER Curt A. Keyser, PEMr. Keyser has more than 20 years of leadership, management, and engineering experience. He possesses solid experience and proven success in managing complex operations, cross-functional teams, and million-dollar budgets. He is equally effective as a leader and key contributor. He applies a hands-on, participatory approach to team management that celebrates employee success and provides ongoing feedback for improvement. Mr. Keyser maintains effective balance between big picture, strategic thinking and a focus on the details necessary for program execution. Mr. Keyser is familiar with the City’s pump station site and its associated challenges. His background knowledge of the site and the area will allow the team to “hit the ground running” with the issuance of the NTP. Mr. Keyser has also been involved with the two Hallandale drainage projects which include pump stations and drainage wells. CIVIL ENGINEERING Jenna Martinetti, PEMrs. Martinetti has 14 years of engineering experience and has managed projects related to roadway, stormwater, park retrofits, water and wastewater infrastructure improvements. Her experience includes design and permitting of stormwater management systems, water mains, sewage force mains, lift stations, fuel stations, site design as well as permitting, preparation of specifications and bidding documents, engineering during construction and project close-out. She is certified in the Advanced MOT design and has extensive experience with JPA’s and Local Agency Program (LAP) projects including MPO Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and Community Incentive Grant Project (CIGP) projects. Mrs. Martinetti recently finalized design and bidding of the $11million dollar drainage improvement project for Hallandale Beach. The project is constructing a new stormwater pumping station consisting of two large pumps with VFD’s, a complex SCADA monitoring system, 17 pressurized 13
