RE: Proposal for Disaster Debris Management and Disposal Services
Bid No. 23-04-01
To Whom It May Concern:
Phillips & Jordan (P&J) appreciates the opportunity to present our Disaster Debris Management and Disposal
Services proposal in response to Bid No. 23-04-01 issued by the City of Sunny Isles Beach (“City”). P&J offers
more than three decades of experience as a disaster debris management contractor, and we can provide the
management team, equipment, personnel, and other necessary resources to respond rapidly and efficiently to a
future disaster in the City. We also have a regional office located in San Antonio, FL, only 4 and a half hours
from the City of Sunny Isles Beach. Our strong presence in the area guarantees a quick and efficient response to
the City in the event of a contract activation. We understand the scope of work as presented in the RFP, and as
with all our work, we will follow applicable OSHA, EPA, and FDEP requirements to maintain safe work
environments.
Critical expectations of the disaster debris management contractor selected by the City should include
demonstrated capabilities to immediately mobilize manpower and equipment, coordinate and control all resources
deployed to the impacted area, implement robust quality control and safety programs, and have the financial
strength to support the necessary project operations. As demonstrated in this proposal, P&J offers these
capabilities as validated through our successful past performance record in responding to a wide variety of natural
and man-made disaster events, specifically coastal events that have and would affect the City.
Our disaster recovery work will include the generation and collection of Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) project documentation to validate the eligibility of work performed and ensure maximum
reimbursement. The financial reimbursement that the City will ultimately receive from FEMA through its Public
Assistance (PA) Grant Program for disaster debris costs will be dependent on three major factors: (1) compliance
with the U.S. Office of Budget and Management’s Super Circular or the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 2,
Chapter 200 (2CFR 200 [2016]); (2) eligibility of work performed; and (3) the documentation to support incurred
cost. P&J’s proven methodology and approach to executing a disaster debris management project is based on
these three factors and incorporates mechanisms that ensure the highest priority is compliance with all applicable
local, state, and federal regulations.
To ensure compliance with 2CFR 200, P&J provides the required bid, payment, performance bonds, and rates that
can support FEMA’s reasonable cost criteria. As a project’s scope and cost expand, we provide the increased
bonding capacity necessary to reduce the financial risk to the City. Our aggregate line of $1.75B bonding capacity
is a testament to our ability to implement our Core Values and Priorities (Integrity, Safety, Quality, and
Production) and demonstrates that we have the resources and experience to execute our contractual commitments
regardless of the magnitude and/or profitability of the project.

P&J’s capacity and capability to perform disaster debris management services include a disaster core response
group that offers more than 160 years of combined debris removal experience; extensive experience performing
federally compliant disaster debris management; a solid equipment plan featuring a fleet of over 2,000 individual
pieces of company-owned equipment; and standing master service agreements with experienced disaster
subcontractors who are ready to mobilize immediately. P&J is committed to providing Disaster Debris
Management and Disposal Services to the City of Sunny Isles Beach professionally and promptly and
within budgetary requirements.
