Sincerely, Universal Engineering Sciences Reinaldo Villa, MS, PE Authorized Representative Branch Manager RVilla@UniversalEngineering.com Section D Project Approach and Understanding Universal Engineering Sciences | 9 D. Project Approach and Understanding GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES APPROACH In order to properly assist the City of Sunny Isles Beach with their Geotechnical needs, it is imperative to, first understand their needs and constraints in order to perform a comprehensive and accurate geotechnical exploration. Once discussions with the City’s project manager have been established, a boring location plan will be presented to the PM for further discussion. The boring plan is developed by reviewing the site plan and the existing site conditions and identifying the necessary soil parameters. The boring depths are determined based upon the structural loading conditions provided by the structural engineer or by our past project experience in the absence of data. After approval by the City, a drill crew will be mobilized to the site in order to perform the field exploration. The drill crew consists of an experienced driller/crew chief and a helper. The drill crew will perform the field exploration, take logs of the findings and place samples in clean glass jars. The jars will then be returned to our laboratory for further classification and testing. After 24 hours, the water tables will be re-checked for stabilized readings. Once the field and laboratory work have been completed to the satisfaction of the project managers, a geotechnical report will be prepared under the direction of a professional engineer (PE) and reviewed by the Contract Manager, Reinaldo Villa, MS, PE and will include the information necessary for the City of Sunny Isles’ project manager to proceed with his labors. Typical reports will the following at a minimum: ■Soil boring logs and classifications; ■Existing groundwater levels and estimated seasonal high levels; ■Potential constraints to development ■Foundation recommendations; ■Anticipated settlement; total and differential; ■Pavement design recommendations; ■Site preparation recommendations; ■Retention pond drawdown/recovery analysis; ■Other concerns as appropriate (groundwater contours, berm stability, etc.) PROJECT TEAM AND MANAGEMENT PLAN UES prides itself on the level or work performed. Our Geotechnical team consist of highly skilled Engineers specializing in Geotechnical sciences are tasked with delivering the timeliest service to our clients. Our ability to respond to our client’s needs in a timely manner is what sets us apart in our industry. Our staff consists of junior and senior level engineers with experiences ranging between 5 to +20 years. Weekly meetings are held in order to assess different projects, their progress, potential savings and development approaches. It is through these meeting that the City of Sunny Isles Beach will get the benefit of not one excellent engineer but a whole team. BUILT FOR SUCCESS UES strives to maintain focus on the following objectives for each project. First, we establish a clear understanding of a client’s needs, goals, and contractual requirements. Then, we seek to gain a clear understanding of a client’s work philosophy and operational procedures. UES maintains an extensive amount of equipment and has a large resource pool of technicians readily available. We also have a document control/record keeping system which allows expedited report preparation and retrieval of archived reports, drawings, and critical documentation related to the project. There is an integral Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) system in place which helps UES maintain its level of quality. A financial management system has been established with an invoicing system designed exclusively to service the client, enabling seamless processing of project costs. Finally, UES has an advanced level of detailed knowledge pertaining to regulatory agency mandates and guidelines governing a particular task or scope of work. UES has found this integrated project approach to be an important tool for accomplishing the objectives of a given project for a client. Universal Engineering Sciences | 10 D. Project Approach and Understanding SCHEDULE AND BUDGET CONTROLS TO ASSURE SUCCESSFUL PROJECTS UES will utilize our standard proven control systems to manage the schedule and budget for this project. Through the Project Director’s initial project setup, the weekly reports, and critical path project scheduling, UES has established a stellar record of successfully completing projects on time and within budget. The following controls will be utilized to maintain schedule and budget. 1. The Project Manager will conduct a project kick-off meeting with the project personnel, specialists, and the Project Director and will address: ■The scope of services ■The schedule for each element of the work ■The budget for each element of the work ■Responsibilities for each element of the work 2. A written work order will be distributed, which will include: ■The scope of services ■The schedule ■The budget ■Any special instructions 3. The Project Manager will communicate daily with the project personnel to make a comparison of actual progress to schedule 4. The Project Manager will review the work effort weekly for comparison with actual work progress 5. The Project Director also reviews all projects for budget status QUALITY/COST CONTROL UES employs strict quality control/quality assurance procedures in all aspects of our work. UES has a proven record for completing municipal projects on time and within budget. We realize that the quality of a product is not controlled by a review at the end. Instead, it must be built into the project from the beginning. As a result of our continued work with government agencies, our staff has an exceptional understanding of all scheduling and budget requirements and processes to successfully deliver each project. Our experience in providing similar services provides us with a great basis for understanding the requirements of this project, and having the in-house resources to control the complete project with regard to our high standards for schedule commitment, budget control and quality. Because of these items, we can confidently state that we will successfully complete the projects on schedule and under budget. Every report prepared for clients is authored by a qualified professional that has the experience and education to perform the required services. The final report is reviewed by a senior level reviewer with over 15 years experience. TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT CAPABILITIES UES relies upon a comprehensive system of software, both licensed and proprietary, to successfully manage our day-to-day operations and all aspects of a project. At the top level, our company utilizes Microsoft Windows 10 on all PCs in conjunction with Office 365, Sophos Cyber Security, Fortinet Firewall and Ransomware, a secured VPN, and GoToMeeting. But, at the center of our operations side lies Deltek Vision. Vision is an established industry standard and used extensively throughout the A/E/C community. This software serves as our main database capturing every project detail, such as the scope of work, duration, subconsultants used, and primary personnel. It also houses all of our client- base information and allows for detailed report generation. Another important function of Vision is billing. The book-keeping capabilities of this component are made possible due to the massive amount of captured project and client information. Universal Engineering Sciences | 11 D. Project Approach and Understanding To ensure that all of these systems work seamlessly together, UES has on staff a full-time Application Business Analyst and Software Developer. Field Data Collection (FDC) is proprietary software used by UES technicians to gather testing data. Following a client’s request for service, a work- order will immediately be created, and a UES field technician will be scheduled and dispatched to the test site. For this task a second piece of proprietary software entitled Dispatch is used to manage all incoming requests, the subsequent work-orders, as well as the progress of the technician and the tracking of the samples. With the use of remote devices in the field, the information gathered by the technicians is saved and transmitted to our office where, in conjunction with samples taken from the field, lab tests are performed and recorded. The resulting data is uploaded to our dispatch and scheduling application where reports are generated and reviewed by a project manager for quality. Once approved, the reports are then sent electronically to the client. This entire process begins and ends with the client—a fact that every UES employee involved in the process understands and strives to deliver fast, accurate results. THE FLEET UES has made it a point to own all of the equipment and vehicles that we use. This lack of debt contributes to our financial stability and gives our field crews and technicians a sense of pride and ownership resulting in better upkeep and care given to our vehicles. GREEN VEHICLES UES utilizes a private fleet of 60 field vehicles most of which have been converted to run on propane. This fuel source burns clean and has far less emissions than traditional gasoline or diesel powered engines. We have also developed a Remote Data Collection and Transmission System for our field reporting, which substantially reduces travel to and from our office by our field staff. Saving fuel diminishes our carbon footprint, increases productivity while reducing overhead, and leads to quicker report turnaround from the draft field to signed and sealed reports. We have also switched to paperless reports and deliverables firm-wide thereby considerably reducing our paper consumption. Universal Engineering Sciences | 12 D. Project Approach and Understanding CURRENT WORKLOAD Prior to presenting this qualification statement, our Principals reviewed the anticipated scope of work under this contract to determine the allocation of our company resources should we become the successful consultant. UES’s staff and resources provide maximum flexibility to meet our clients’ scheduling needs. The nature of our work requires us to typically provide services on an expedited basis. Our typical back-log is made up of many short duration assignments and therefore our workload varies on a weekly basis. Furthermore, long-term contracts are of indefinite quantity making workload dependent upon individual work orders, and difficult to predict. UES’s workload capacity is strategically managed to enable us to respond successfully to emergency situations and fast-tracked projects. Based on prior experience, we believe that our present and future workload capacity is more than adequate to conduct the required services for this contract in a prompt (timely) and efficient manner. COMMITMENT TO AVAILABILITY UES prides itself on maintaining a local, available, and responsive team. We are confident of meeting the project schedules. We are committed to exceeding your expectations and will always plan for enough capacity to meet your project needs, both anticipated and unanticipated. Our staff has the commitment and availability to fulfill this contract successfully and is also willing and able to work nights, holidays, and weekends as necessary. Our firm has the staff available to respond effectively to multiple, varied, and often simultaneous task authorizations. Regardless of the number of authorizations, complexity or size, UES has been able to consistently deliver all projects on or ahead of schedule. Our Miami office and local key personnel within the company will remain easily accessible at all times, and the project representatives will stay well informed of the status of ongoing progress. During field activities, Senior and Staff Professionals will be performing regular site visits to verify the continuity of the work plan. Section E Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel Universal Engineering Sciences | 14 E. Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel QUALIFICATION INFORMATION UES’s reputation, facilities, and culture attract some of the most experienced and knowledgeable professionals in the industry. Many of our staff have been with the company for over 15 years or more. An unmistakable passion for excellence is ever- present as is a camaraderie and eagerness to teach, learn, and contribute to our clients’ success. UES has managed similar contracts for various municipalities in Miami-Dade including Miami-Dade County Public Works, City of Miami Beach, FDOT, MDX, and Florida’s Turnpike. UES’s professional engineers, geologists, and field technicians are registered throughout the southeastern United States—most of which hold advanced degrees in their specialized fields. We encourage our personnel to develop professional accreditation such as NICET, ACI certification, and State Departments of Transportation (FDOT and GDOT).

Reinaldo will be supported by a staff of engineers, scientist, geologists, technicians, and administrative personnel that will ensure not only we provide experienced, technical staff, but also make the invoicing and budgeting tracking efficient for the City of Sunny Isles Beach. ABILITY TO COMPLETE PROJECTS ON SCHEDULE AND WITHIN BUDGET We do not offer a broad one-size-fits-all solution because we know every client or agency is unique. We take a proactive approach with solutions developed for each client, which allows for the most accommodating and responsive service package available in our industry. UES understands the importance of maintaining schedules and is dedicated to delivering projects in a timely manner. We understand that our clients often need to make critical decisions under tight time frames while considering budgets, end goals, follow-up actions, and public image. Our staff strives to develop and drive realistic project schedules for every task we receive. One of the first steps for the project manager is to meet with all vested parties to conduct a project kick-off meeting. As part of the project kick-off meeting, a detailed schedule is developed that involves the UES project team, sub-consultants, and the client. One of the key aspects of this meeting is to understand our Client’s Objectives and Desired Outcomes (CODO) so that we can present the proposed schedule to the client. The project schedule is designed with the complete understanding of the CODO for the client. We take into consideration many project aspects including field conditions, the scope of services, project logistics, site access, subcontractor availability, laboratory turnaround times, and regulatory deadlines to name a few. Once we have a full understanding of our resources, we develop a written schedule that is presented to the client for review. Universal’s approach is to be flexible and act as a solution provider when scheduling challenges arise. Good communication with the client is critical for any successful project. We assess impacts of federal, state, and local regulatory compliance on current or proposed activities by developing a plan prior to the decision to move forward with the proposed task. Our staff strives to develop and drive realistic project schedules for every task we receive.” Universal Engineering Sciences | 15 E. Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel 5.

(UL) We have a Corporate Quality Systems Group (in- house) responsible for keeping our equipment calibrated and checked for accuracy. Also, our laboratories are qualified and accredited through outside agencies such as: ■AASHTO Materials Reference Laboratory ■Accreditation (AMRL) ■Cement/Concrete Reference Laboratory Accreditation (CCRL) ■Construction Materials Engineering Council (CMEC) ■Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) ■US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Universal Engineering Sciences | 34 E. Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel FIELD SERVICES Soils By conducting on-site tests and monitoring, UES can analyze the suitability of soils for structural fill, determine the need for moisture adjustment, and provide an overview of earthwork activities. Concrete Our inspection services also include sampling concrete for air content, slump, temperature and unit weight; making cylinders for compressive strength tests; and observing concrete placement. Asphalt Our asphaltic concrete inspection services are designed to ensure that our client’s asphalt pavement system is constructed per project requirements. UES can provide field quality control to determine and monitor temperature, lift thickness, and compaction using core samples, as well as verification of aggregate gradation, asphalt content, bulk specific gravity, stability and flow. UES also provides more advanced inspection services such as: ■Aggregate Mine and Terminal Evaluation ■Asphalt and Concrete Coring and Evaluation ■Asphalt and Concrete Batch Plant Inspection ■Contractor Quality Control (CQC) ■Drilled Shaft ■Floor Flatness/Levelness Evaluation ■Maturity and Relative Humidity of Concrete ■Pavement Marking ■Prestress/Precast ■Threshold Inspection ■Welding and Metals Fabrication THRESHOLD INSPECTION In order to assure structural component conformance of larger structures, the State of Florida Building Construction Standards enacted Chapter 553, which defines a threshold building as: “Any building which is greater than three stories or 50-feet in height, or which has an assembly occupancy classification that exceeds 5,000 sf in area and an occupant capacity of greater than 500 persons.” This standard also specifies that a building of this size must have threshold inspector services. On a typical threshold project, an agent of the licensed Special Threshold Inspector conducts a majority of the inspections. This agent is specially trained and qualified to perform structural element inspection. They perform their duties under the supervision and authority of the Special Inspector. Because our threshold agents are trained in materials testing procedures, they have the ability to provide this service to supplement our field technicians. This can reduce manpower requirements for staffing the project, thereby saving our clients money. When construction schedule dictates that the agent of the Special Inspector is needed for threshold inspection services, we are capable of supplying additional engineering technicians to perform the materials testing in coordination with the agent of the Special Inspector. We have the staff ready and available. GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING UES offers a full range of geotechnical engineering services designed to help architects, engineers, and developers meet local, state, national, and international environmental regulations. Our world-class geotechnical team works in multiple sectors throughout the United States, including theme parks, hospitality, transportation, residential, higher education, healthcare, and retail. UES’ specialists are supported by a comprehensive set of resources, including one of the largest fleets of energy-efficient field vehicles, high-capacity drill rigs, and state-of-the-art laboratories performing AASHTO, ASTM, FM, and USACE accredited testing on soils, rock cores, and water samples. We are pre-qualified with both the Florida DOT and Georgia DOT allowing us to conduct geotechnical and materials testing work related Universal Engineering Sciences | 35 E. Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel to highway design and construction in those states. Additionally, our engineers have worked on projects ranging from high-rise buildings, industrial developments, and commercial facilities, to solid and hazardous waste landfills and stormwater management systems. LABORATORY SERVICES We understand that both accurate and fast testing is critical to helping our clients achieve their goals. UES has two full-service labs conveniently located near this project. All of our sample results are uploaded by the laboratory managers to track the progress of samples during all steps of sampling, testing and reporting. Utilizing our company-wide server will allows the UES Contract Manager to perform real- time oversight of laboratory testing flow for any sample delivered to our laboratories. Each of our laboratories follows the Quality Systems Manuals and have Quality Assurance oversight by our Quality Systems Manager. With this type of in-house support, UES provides its clients with a multitude of capabilities ranging from preliminary investigations through to final design. EFFICIENT BY DESIGN Field Data Collection (FDC) is proprietary software used by UES technicians to gather testing data. Following a client’s request for service, a work order will immediately be created, and a UES field technician will be scheduled and dispatched to the test site. With the use of remote devices in the field, the information gathered by the technicians is saved and transmitted to our office where, in conjunction with samples taken from the field, lab tests are performed and recorded. The resulting data is uploaded to our dispatch and scheduling application where reports are generated and reviewed by a project manager for quality. Once approved, the reports are then sent electronically to the client. Using soil and groundwater test results, UES’ geotechnical engineers can analyze existing site conditions and provide our clients with safe, cost- effective construction solutions. Our dedication to value engineering techniques, state-of-the-art site exploration, and our extensive exploration database consistently proves to be invaluable in both pre-design and pre-construction planning. The evaluation of the subsurface soils and groundwater conditions is important to the development and design of construction projects as these evaluations confirm the allowable capacities of foundations, settlement potential and groundwater conditions. Also, it is extremely important that the subsurface exploration program evaluates potential site development and long-term performance problems. That way, we can identify cost-effective remediation alternatives for use by other members of the design team. We also provide post-construction settlement investigations. These studies involve the determination of the cause(s) of settlement followed by remedial recommendations. Examples include sinkhole evaluation of commercial and residential structures, and consolidation of organic or soft clay deposits. Universal Engineering Sciences | 36 E. Qualification Information and Assigned Personnel CIVIL DESIGN SUPPORT SERVICES Quite often, civil engineering design requires special considerations for proper performance and economical construction. A few of the services that UES provides in this area are as follows: ■Exfiltration/Recovery Analysis and Permeability Evaluations ■Underdrain Evaluation and Design ■Pavement Design ■Borrow Pit Studies ■Dewatering Permitting ■Vibration and Noise Monitoring ■Pile Driving Analysis ■Structural Failure Analysis DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES The development of a new sites requires several studies to ensure that the site is compatible with the intended use. These studies include characterizing soil and groundwater conditions, evaluating the potential for sinkhole activity on the site, and location of muck on the site that could adversely affect performance and construction costs of structure and pavement areas. DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY SERVICES UES routinely performs soil investigations and geotechnical design services for construction projects where cost-effective design is essential to the successful performance of foundations, walls, dams and other structures that rely upon proper characterization of subsurface soil and groundwater conditions. A list of our capabilities in this area is as follows: ■Site Feasibility and Due Diligence Studies ■Soil Mapping and Classification ■Sinkhole Evaluation ■Landfill Site Selection and Assessment ■Muck Probes and Mapping ■Subsurface Investigations ■Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) ■Cone Penetrometer Soundings ■Shallow and Deep Foundation Recommendations and Design ■Settlement and Stability Analysis ■Subsurface Improvement Recommendations ■Retaining Wall Design ■Seepage Analysis ■Sinkhole Remediation Design ■Value Engineering Analysis GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS As part of the broad range of engineering services provided to clients, UES uses geophysics as a cost-effective, non-intrusive means to rapidly characterize subsurface conditions and man-made structures. Our experience spans from engineering investigations involving pre-design and pre-build geologic characterizations to forensic assessments of distressed property, and “cause of subsidence” evaluations. Geophysical surveys are used to optimize drilling and sampling programs and to measure bulk physical properties that are complementary to conventional engineering sampling methods. WHAT LIES BENEATH Underground utilities can pose a variety of difficulties for construction and facilities management if their locations and depths are not accurately known. Drawings and utility maps are often inaccurate, or in many cases, utilities are not documented at all. In addition to geotechnical applications, geophysical surveys are cost-effective means to map underground utilities in the design phase or prior to start of new and remedial construction activities. UES’ geophysicists, geologists and engineers draw from their experience to provide clients with optimal solutions to the most challenging of engineering problems. UES continually strives to research new techniques and methods which may further increase our ability to provide our clients with the most prompt and up-to-date services.
