MQR #2 AND #3 RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH 30 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. ENGINEERING, DESIGN & RELATED SERVICES FOR THE LOCAL PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department (WASD), as a continuation of the PSIP Program effort and in an effort to comply with the 2013 Consent Decree to improve operation of its wastewater collection system to achieve compliance, established an internal team and consultants selected specifically for their understanding of wastewater pump station systems. With this “Local Pump Stations” contract, MDWASD will repair, replace and/or upgrade existing and non-compliant wastewater pump stations throughout the County. The improvements vary from pump upgrades to complete pump station and force main upgrades. The challenges found in designing these upgrades relate to two items. First, meeting the FEMA Base Flood Elevation for some of these small locations while maintaining operations and maintenance protocols is a challenge. Under this contract, we have converted several wet well/dry well systems into submersible stations.

RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH 51 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. The purpose of the project was to provide drainage and traffic improvements through roadway widening, median installations, redesign of intersections, and improvements to drainage, parking, lighting, signalization and landscaping in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of the City of Miami. The land use is a combination of residential and commercial. Since the roadway is part of an older, well established neighborhood, many different utilities are installed within the right of way. The project corridor includes a 30-inch water main, smaller water mains, gas, multiple fiber-optic cable duct banks, sanitary sewers and force mains, requiring extensive utility and interagency coordination. Other complicating factors in the design were the elevations, which included low grades and a high groundwater table at the southern end of the project directly adjacent to Biscayne Bay, higher elevations in the mid-section, and “normal” elevations around the northern end. The final cross-section of the roadway included additional vehicular travel lanes, sidewalk, curbing, drainage, on-street parking, a bicycle lane, and a traffic calming circle. The design required a clean transition through planned driveway and property harmonization between the new roadway and the existing private property ingress and egress to match the new roadway elevation, width and contours. Additionally, the project required intensive utility coordination to execute the necessary utility relocations, including coordinating with FPL to remove the existing power poles and install all their assets below ground. The stormwater drainage design was developed in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the County and the Florida Department of Transportation. The design consists of approximately 70 drainage structures to capture and convey all the stormwater, 3,000 LF of piping and 2,000 LF of French drains divided into eight (8) independent, closed systems. By creating independent systems, CES was able to develop a design that satisfied the project requirements while achieving significant cost savings to the client compared to their customary approach of creating interdependent systems.

In response, the City seeks to explore potential modifications within the 19th Street right-of-way (ROW) to mitigate this reduction through the addition of on- street parking. The 19th Street corridor serves a critical role within the urban fabric of the City, providing access to several major civic and cultural destinations, including the Miami Beach Convention Center, Pride Park, and the Miami Beach Botanical Garden. The area is frequently utilized by residents, visitors, and event attendees, and therefore, maintaining adequate and conveniently located parking is essential to support the functionality and vitality of this district. As part of this study, CES conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the existing ROW to identify and assess feasible modifications to the corridor’s surface features, including traffic lanes, medians, green spaces, and parking configurations. Each potential alternative was analyzed in terms of its advantages and disadvantages, considering impacts to traffic operations, pedestrian safety, green space preservation, and aesthetic character. The analysis also involved coordination with key City of Miami Beach departments—including Parking, Transportation, and Public Works—to ensure consistency with municipal design standards, operational goals, and regulatory requirements. Feedback was additionally sought from adjacent stakeholders such as the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, which has a significant interest in maintaining accessibility, safety, and the visual integrity of the surrounding area. Following this coordination and analysis, the study compared alternatives based on constructability, cost, operational performance, and overall integration with the surrounding urban environment. The findings presented reflected a balanced consideration of these factors to guide the City in determining the most suitable approach to improving parking capacity along 19th Street while maintaining compliance with applicable City requirements and preserving the corridor’s civic and aesthetic value.

Our feasibility study began by inspecting the existing conditions of the intersection, reviewing the most recent survey, reviewing the previous roadway drawings, and interviewing with both City of Pembroke Pines and City of Miramar staff. Once the investigation was complete, CES developed three conceptual alternatives. These alternatives varied from adjusting the pavement markings to creating dedicated turning lanes. The primary issue detected was that there was a slight lane shift within the intersection. This lane shift caused poor visibility for the eastbound left turn lane. In order to correct this, CES proposed to adjust the lanes further away from the intersection.

The project passes through, or lies immediately adjacent to, six jurisdictions: City of Sunrise; Town of Davie; City of Plantation; City of Fort Lauderdale; Town of Dania; and unincorporated areas of Broward County. Additionally, CES assigned certified CTQP Inspectors to sample Portland Cement Concrete at the site during placement of the site’s structural concrete. The inspector made concrete cylinders for compressive strength testing and performing plastic properties tests that included water/cement ratio and temperature. During the placement of Class I concrete, the CTQP certified inspector checked the water/cement ratio of the mix delivered at the frequency specified by the FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction (FDOT Specification). We also provided a CTQP Earthwork Level I certified inspector to perform in-place density tests with a nuclear gauge (ASTM D-2922) on compacted soils, as well as to collect soil samples needed for laboratory testing. Additionally, CES provided asphalt paving inspection services according to FDOT Standards. Our field representative confirmed the temperature of the material and the placement of all layers, also preparing all documentation related to these activities. Finally, the field representative monitored field conditions and that the contractor operated in compliance with a safe working environment. A major component of the project was the construction of three at-grade reversible express toll lanes known as the 595 Express, serving express traffic to/from the I-75/Sawgrass Expressway from/ to east of SR 7, with a direct connection to the median of Florida’s Turnpike. These lanes are operated as managed lanes with variable tolls to optimize traffic flow and reverse directions in peak travel times (eastbound in the AM and westbound in the PM). The public-private partnership (P3) between the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and a private concessionaire, I-595 Express, LLC, provided for the design, construction, financing, operation, and maintenance of the roadway for a 35-year term. FDOT provided management oversight of the contract and installed, tested, operates, and maintains all tolling equipment for the express lanes. The utilization of TIFIA financing and P3 structuring allows for project delivery 15 years sooner and with approximately $394 million in financing cost savings compared to more conventional delivery mechanisms.

The project’s objectives were: to update the facilities to meet growing operational needs, meeting all federal, state, and local codes (fire, hurricane, ADA, etc.); to allow for maintenance and storage of 60-foot articulated buses; to rebuild the site to accommodate up to 50 additional public transportation vehicles; and to construct a 50,000 SF Maintenance Building, Fuel and Wash Buildings, an Operations Facility, and a three- story Parking Garage with approximately 250 spaces. Also included in the scope were complete site work improvements, to include lighting, landscaping, underground utilities, drainage, and underground storage tanks. The construction of the new facility required a carefully designed phasing plan to address not only the demolition of existing structures, but the construction of the new structures while maintaining daily operations, 24/7. The design included temporary facilities to accommodate some of the various functions on site. The project was certified with the USGBC LEED Green Building Rating System Program.

They have helped generate grant funding for community development, including arts, broadband, culture, economic development, education, healthcare, housing, justice, language, open spaces, transportation, victim services, and more. By teaming up with a group of highly successful entrepreneurs and experts in their respective fields, the Santicola & Company team has individually and collectively generated over $1B in grants in 20+ years and won numerous awards for excellence in leadership.

MDWASD Engineering, Design and Related Services for the Local Pump Station Improvement Program, Miami-Dade County, FL: Project Manager & Civil/Stormwater Engineer for the inspection/ evaluation, analysis and design of multiple sanitary sewer lift stations ranging from 20 HP to 60 HP and associated force mains. The challenges found in designing these upgrades relate to two items. First, meeting the FEMA Base Flood Elevation for some of these small locations while maintaining operations and maintenance protocols is a challenge. Under this contract, we have converted several wet well / dry well systems into submersible stations. These conversions are requiring significant structural design to reuse the existing facilities. This effort is more cost effective than installing a new wet well.

We prioritize responsiveness and proactive communication to keep projects moving, avoid surprises, and mitigate risks. Our depth of staff allows us to assign the right professionals to each task, including experienced design engineers and inspectors who are ready to mobilize. This approach strengthens budget control, supports concurrent task execution, and helps accelerate overall project delivery. Our team also includes professionals with deep local knowledge of South Florida, including regulatory requirements, permitting processes, labor conditions, and material supply considerations—allowing us to efficiently navigate the complexities of municipal projects. CES’s approach integrates people, processes, and technology to consistently deliver projects on time and within budget. For 25+ years, we have invested in top talent, continuous training, and proven systems that enhance efficiency and project oversight. We will phase work strategically to maximize efficiency and create opportunities to accelerate delivery. For example, where design and permitting can be advanced for specific project elements, we can issue early construction packages to expedite progress and deliver value sooner. Our collaborative and proactive management style is central to our success. At the outset of each task order, we will meet with the City and key stakeholders to confirm goals, priorities, and preferences. We will then align the full project team around a shared vision and clear execution plan, ensuring a coordinated approach that maximizes the City’s investment. Our methodologies and approaches used in achieving tasks for general civil engineering, transportation/transit/traffic engineering, and construction engineering and inspection (CEI) services are included in this section. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)188 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Our overall organization to completing the City’s projects is described in this section, as well as in Tab 3 – Staffing. CES will establish clear scopes, responsibilities, schedules, and interim milestones at the outset of each task order, allowing the project manager to monitor progress against the City’s required completion dates. Regular coordination with City staff, discipline leads, and subconsultants will help identify decisions, dependencies, permitting needs, and potential schedule impacts early, while internal progress reviews will confirm that deliverables remain on track. The project manager will actively manage staff assignments and adjust resources as project requirements evolve, including adding technical support or resequencing activities when needed to protect critical deadlines. Through proactive communication, timely escalation of issues, disciplined quality control reviews, and consistent schedule monitoring, CES will provide the responsiveness and flexibility necessary to meet the City’s desired timelines without compromising the quality or completeness of the work. Upon authorization of each task order, CES’s project manager will meet with City staff to confirm the scope, priorities, required deliverables, review procedures, and established completion date. The project manager will then develop a detailed work plan that identifies project activities, staff responsibilities, interim milestones, agency coordination requirements, quality control reviews, and dependencies that could affect the schedule. Key decision points and anticipated review periods will be incorporated into the project schedule so that City input, permitting activities, and stakeholder coordination can occur without delaying subsequent work. Throughout the assignment, the project manager will monitor progress against the approved schedule through regular team coordination, milestone reviews, and communication with the City. Potential schedule risks will be identified early and addressed through timely decision-making, adjustment of work sequencing, or allocation of additional technical resources when appropriate. Quality reviews will be planned in advance and performed throughout project development, rather than deferred until final submission, helping CES provide complete, coordinated deliverables while meeting the City’s established deadlines. CES will establish a clear process for receiving, documenting, and addressing complaints from residents, businesses, project stakeholders, and other affected parties. Each complaint will be acknowledged promptly, recorded in a tracking log, and reviewed by the project manager to determine the appropriate response, responsible team member, and required follow-up. Complaints involving safety, access, service interruptions, schedule impacts, or other urgent concerns will receive immediate attention. The CES project manager will promptly bring complaints to the attention of the City’s project manager, providing the relevant details, actions taken, and recommended next steps. CES will coordinate with the City before issuing responses when City direction or approval is required and will track each matter through resolution. Follow-up communication will confirm that corrective actions have been completed and that the City is kept informed of the complaint’s status and final disposition. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)189 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES applies a disciplined Baseline-Driven Execution methodology in which every design and construction decision is measured against an approved estimate integrating scope, cost, and schedule. Estimates are developed early, refined as design matures, and updated through formal change management, giving the City cost certainty at every phase and confidence that projects stay within the CCNA funding thresholds. CES aligns its cost control services to the City’s project phases as follows: »Phase 1 – Study and Report: CES develops an initial estimate of Total Project Cost for each recommended solution, itemized into estimated Total Construction Cost, contingency allowances, cost of consultant services, and other allowances defined by the City. These order-of-magnitude estimates validate feasibility and confirm each alternative aligns with the City’s budget before design begins. »Phase 2 – Preliminary Design: As preliminary design criteria, drawings, and outline specifications take shape, CES submits a revised estimate of Total Construction Cost and any adjustment to Total Project Cost. Pricing transitions from parametric to system-level, evaluating major building systems, quantities, and phasing to catch scope gaps early and keep the design aligned with the approved budget. »Phase 3 – Final Design/Construction Documents: CES prepares/verifies the detailed Estimates of Construction Cost built on industry-recognized publications, historical price lists, and current pricing for comparable construction in South Florida. Estimates are refined through detailed quantity takeoffs and unit-cost verification, then reconciled at the City’s design review stages, with a further revised Total Construction Cost estimate submitted alongside the Construction Documents. »Phase 4 – Permitting, Bidding, and Negotiation: CES supports the City by validating the final estimate against bids received, reconciling variances, and providing bid validation and cost analysis to confirm pricing is fair and complete. This independent check helps the City recommend an award with confidence and identify any anomalies before contract execution. »Phase 5 – Construction Administration: CES monitors cost continuously by comparing actual expenditures against the approved budget, identifying trends and variances, and evaluating each Change Order for pricing, quantities, and impact before it reaches the City for approval. A proactive change management process and maintained change log keep scope deviations transparent and protect the City against unsupported cost growth through project closeout. Estimates are developed at Phase 1 and updated at every subsequent phase and design milestone, each reconciled against the prior version, so the City sees precisely what changed and why. Because accuracy is tied to design maturity, the estimate band narrows progressively, and near-final estimates track within a few percentage points of bid results. On the Miami-Dade County Public Schools Cost Estimating and Scheduling CSC, this milestone reconciliation kept near-final estimates closely aligned with awarded construction values and flagged variances early enough to act on. CES uses value engineering to get the best result for every dollar the City spends, not to cut corners. For each major, high-cost part of a project, we ask what it needs to do, then find a smarter, more cost-effective way to accomplish the same thing without giving up quality or performance. What sets CES apart is that our cost control does not stop at design. During construction, we capture physical percent complete and actual expenditures and measure both against the baseline to produce a true, reliable lookahead, operating as a GPS looking forward, not a rear-view mirror. This lets us generate custom performance reports that flag emerging variances early, so the City can mitigate underperformance and take corrective action before minor deviations erode the budget or schedule. On MDWASD pump station assignments, CES evaluated reuse of existing structures during wet-well/dry-well conversions, avoiding unnecessary new wet-well construction where existing conditions permitted while maintaining functional and structural requirements. This constructability-focused value engineering approach reduced unnecessary infrastructure replacement and allowed project funds to be directed to the improvements required for reliable station operation. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)190 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES develops and maintains project schedules using Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling in Primavera P6 or MS Projects, built on the same Baseline- Driven Execution approach used for cost. The schedule is created from the project’s Work Breakdown Structure, tied directly to the estimate and scope, and becomes the baseline against which all progress is measured. Schedules are updated at regular intervals and at each design milestone, so the City always has a current, realistic picture of the path to completion. CES aligns its scheduling services to the City’s project phases as follows: »Phase 1 – Study and Report: CES develops a preliminary project schedule for each recommended solution to confirm the approach is achievable within the City’s desired timeframe. This early schedule validates overall duration, major milestones, and phasing, and supports the feasibility findings presented in the Report. »Phase 2 – Preliminary Design: As preliminary design takes shape, CES refines the schedule to reflect design criteria, key deliverables, and permitting durations. Schedule logic, sequencing, and milestones are reviewed to confirm the project remains on track, and any early risks to the timeline are identified and addressed. »Phase 3 – Final Design/Construction Documents: CES develops/ verifies the detailed baseline CPM schedule covering design completion, permitting, procurement, and construction. The schedule is reconciled at the City’s review stages, verifying critical path, milestone alignment, durations, and interdependencies among disciplines so the timeline remains realistic as documents are finalized. »Phase 4 – Permitting, Bidding, and Negotiation: CES accounts for permitting and agency review durations in the schedule and supports the City during bidding by validating the contractor’s proposed schedule for logic, sequencing, and achievability. This confirms that the winning bidder’s timeline is realistic before the contract is executed. »Phase 5 – Construction Administration: During construction, CES reviews each contractor schedule update against the approved baseline, evaluating critical path, milestone status, sequencing, and reported progress for reasonableness. Using physical percent complete and actual progress, CES produces a reliable lookahead, operating as a GPS looking forward, not a rear-view mirror, and generates custom reports that flag slippage early so the City can take corrective action before it erodes the schedule. On the Miami-Dade County Public Schools Cost Estimating and Scheduling CSC, CES managed tight, calendar-driven timelines where work had to be completed within fixed school-year windows. By maintaining current CPM schedules and using lookahead reporting to spot slippage early, CES helped keep milestone dates on track and avoided disruption to school operations. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)191 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES Project Controls and Technology Services are designed to help owners, agencies, and organizations plan, execute, and deliver capital projects with confidence. Our approach integrates project controls, analytics, process improvement, and technology into a single, unified framework that provides real-time visibility, accountability, and predictable outcomes across the full project lifecycle. At the core of CES’s philosophy is a simple principle: projects succeed when decisions are based on accurate, timely, and aligned cost, schedule, and scope information. We create that alignment through disciplined baseline development, continuous performance monitoring, and modern technology platforms that establish a true single source of truth. CES Project Controls are built on two foundational concepts: 1. Baseline-Driven Execution: Every successful project begins with a well-defined baseline. CES establishes a comprehensive control baseline—scope, cost, schedule, and execution strategy—early in the project lifecycle and manages all decisions against it. This baseline-centric approach: »Aligns stakeholders from the outset. »Accelerates scope definition and project readiness. »Creates discipline and accountability. »Eliminates costly surprises during execution. All design, procurement, and construction activities are continuously measured against the approved baseline, with proactive change and trend management ensuring deviations are identified early and addressed before they impact outcomes. 2. Real-Time Analytics and Early Warning: CES integrates cost, schedule, progress, and risk data into real-time dashboards and analytics, enabling early identification of issues and informed decision-making at both the project and program levels. By comparing physical percent complete, financial percent complete, and duration percent complete, CES provides powerful early warning indicators that highlight emerging risks and performance gaps—well before they escalate into claims, delays, or budget overruns. CES provides integrated Cost Estimating, Scheduling, and Value Engineering services. Our approach is grounded in industry best practices established by AACE International, the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA), and the Project Management Institute (PMI), and is structured to support transparent decision making, fiscal responsibility, and predictable project delivery for the City. »Cost Estimating: CES performs cost estimating services in accordance with AACE International Recommended Practices, ensuring that estimates are appropriately scaled to the level of project definition and intended use. Estimates are developed using a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) aligned with project scope, drawings, specifications, and constructability considerations. Our approach includes independent quantity takeoffs, current market-based unit pricing, and the use of historical benchmarks to validate reasonableness. Assumptions, exclusions, escalation, and contingencies are clearly documented to support CCNA negotiations, funding decisions, and public accountability. As projects advance, CES reconciles estimates against design development and bid results to identify scope gaps, cost drivers, and opportunities for optimization. This disciplined methodology provides the City with reliable budgets and early visibility into potential cost risks. »Scheduling: CES provides project scheduling services consistent with DCMA scheduling principles and PMI schedule management best practices, with a focus on schedule integrity, realism, and usability as a management tool. Schedules are developed and reviewed using critical path method (CPM) principles, with clear logic, reasonable activity durations, and minimal reliance on artificial constraints. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)192 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Baseline schedules are evaluated for logical completeness, critical-path continuity, and alignment with the planned means and methods of construction. Progress updates are based on objective status and are used to produce credible forecasts of project completion. CES also supports schedule analysis for phasing, coordination, and scope changes, ensuring that time impacts are identified, understood, and communicated clearly and defensibly. This approach enables proactive schedule control rather than reactive reporting. »Value Engineering: CES applies Value Engineering as a structured, collaborative process aligned with PMI and AACE principles, focused on improving overall project value without compromising quality, safety, or long-term operations. Our Value Engineering efforts evaluate alternative materials, systems, construction methods, and phasing strategies using a function-based approach. Recommendations are supported by quantified cost and schedule impacts, constructability considerations, and risk awareness. CES emphasizes practical, implementable solutions and clearly documents assumptions, benefits, and trade offs so the City can make informed decisions with confidence. Value Engineering is applied early and revisited as projects evolve to maximize benefit. By integrating cost, schedule, and value considerations within a unified framework, CES helps the City improve predictability, manage risk, and maintain alignment among scope, budget, and time. CES transforms raw project data into clear, actionable intelligence. Our dashboards integrate data from: »Project Management Information Systems (PMIS) platforms »Scheduling systems (e.g., P6) »Estimating systems »Financial and accounting systems »Field data and production reports Dashboards are tailored by audience—project teams, executives, and public stakeholders—and provide: »Real-time performance status »Trend and variance analysis »Funding and cash flow visibility »Grant and compliance tracking »Program-wide rollups and drill downs CES is software agnostic and integrates seamlessly with client-preferred platforms. We support assessment, implementation, staffing, training, and ongoing system optimization for: »PMIS »Scheduling platforms »BIM and asset management systems »GIS and geospatial tools »Dashboards and business intelligence platforms We also support NextGen Project Management solutions, incorporating emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning, drones, and advanced analytics to automate repetitive tasks and enhance decision making. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)193 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES will implement a structured QA/QC process tailored to the scope, complexity, and deliverables of each task order. At project initiation, the project manager will establish applicable criteria and standards, review responsibilities, submission milestones, and quality control checkpoints. Technical work products will be prepared by qualified staff and reviewed by experienced personnel who were not primarily responsible for their preparation. Reviews will address technical accuracy, completeness, consistency across disciplines, compliance with City and regulatory requirements, constructability, and coordination among plans, calculations, specifications, estimates, and supporting documentation. Quality reviews will occur throughout project development rather than only before final submission, allowing issues to be identified and resolved early. Interdisciplinary coordination reviews will be conducted at appropriate milestones to identify conflicts, omissions, and inconsistencies among the various elements of the work. When applicable, CES will also evaluate proposed improvements for constructability, maintainability, accessibility, utility conflicts, permitting requirements, and potential impacts to residents, businesses, traffic, and existing City operations. Review comments will be documented, assigned to the responsible team member, and tracked through resolution. The project manager will verify that comments have been addressed and that required corrections are incorporated before each deliverable is submitted to the City. Subconsultant work products will be subject to the same review and documentation requirements as work prepared by CES, helping ensure that all components of the submission are complete and coordinated. Comments received from the City and reviewing agencies will also be logged, evaluated, and tracked through closure. CES will maintain document control and version control procedures to ensure that the project team and the City are working from current, clearly identified information. Before submission, the project manager will confirm that the required technical and quality reviews have been completed and that the deliverable satisfies the task order requirements. This approach supports accurate, complete, and defensible work products while reducing the potential for revisions, delays, change orders, and construction-related issues. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)194 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. APPROACH/METHODOLOGY RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)195 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES is well versed in general civil engineering and transportation/transit/traffic engineering projects. The project management approach described in this section is applicable to both disciplines, with discipline-specific considerations that inform how services are delivered. For example, general civil engineering projects focused on roadway design require a thorough understanding of right-of-way constraints, utility conflicts, and maintaining access during construction. Transportation/transit/traffic engineering projects require a strong command of regulatory procedures to support design, permitting, and, when necessary, coordination of design exceptions or variances with the Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW). These are all areas in which CES brings extensive, hands-on experience. CES also offers the City a practical and forward-thinking approach to resiliency. We develop infrastructure solutions that respond to climate change impacts while maintaining a focus on constructability, cost efficiency, and community context. The City’s geography, geology, and hydrology present unique challenges, including sea-level rise, king tides, and increasingly intense storm events. Addressing these conditions requires thoughtful, multi-faceted solutions that enhance infrastructure performance while preserving the character and quality of life within the community. CES is well positioned to support the City in implementing resilient, adaptable infrastructure improvements that meet these evolving demands. CES provides general civil engineering services across both public and private environments, including projects within constrained, built-out areas throughout Miami-Dade and Broward Counties. Our work often involves close coordination with architects and stakeholders to develop site designs that support functionality, accessibility, and aesthetics. We focus on integrating vehicular and pedestrian access, balancing hardscape and landscape elements, and ensuring that drainage and grading solutions perform effectively within site constraints. Our experience also includes the design of water distribution systems, gravity sewer systems, force mains, and pump stations across South Florida. Transportation/transit/traffic engineering requires a clear understanding of applicable standards, regulatory requirements, and permitting processes. CES has in-house staff with extensive experience coordinating permits with DTPW and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). We understand that many municipalities, including the City, must balance upgrading infrastructure with existing constraints. In cases where meeting current design standards is challenging, our team works collaboratively with regulatory agencies to develop practical solutions, including pursuing design exceptions or variances where appropriate. This approach allows improvements to move forward while maintaining safety, functionality, and community context. CES is currently providing transportation design services for the City of Miami Beach, reinforcing our familiarity with similar urban and coastal conditions. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)196 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Throughout our 25+ years of experience, we have observed and learned from our projects, our colleagues, local regulators, and local contractors. This experience and lessons learned have allowed us to develop a “Base Project Methodology.” This is the template we use as the backbone to any project—the common elements required for almost every engineering project. From there, we tailor our project approach based upon the scope. We commence our efforts by understanding the details of an individual project. This includes the client’s needs and the site conditions. With this information, we identify the standards and regulations that a project will need to meet. For this contract, our project manager will make sure our design team has access to the latest City and Miami-Dade County design standards and CAD standards. We will periodically check for updates to assure that we meet the standard and quality expected by City staff. During a project’s scope of services development, our project manager will review the project scope of work, establish the necessary design elements, discuss the need for subconsultants or onboard the correct subconsultants, if directed by City staff, and develop a project schedule that identifies staff members needed to complete the task, clear project milestones, and project task durations based on the effort and the City’s needs. These elements will be discussed in detail with City staff during the project scoping and negotiations. Once the scope and staff are agreed upon, our project manager will implement our project management manual and associated protocols. This will commence with preparing a project-specific Project Execution Plan, onboarding our subconsultants, and preparing all of the necessary project management tools to execute a particular project. Once the task authorization is issued, our project team will solidify the schedule with exact submittal dates and conduct a kick-off meeting with City staff. A typical engineering project will require the following elements: »Surveying and/or Easement Acquisition »Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) and Soft Digs for Utility Investigation »Utility Coordination and Conflicts »Geotechnical Investigation »Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) Planning »Permitting »Engineering During Construction »Construction Inspection »Constructability Reviews »Stakeholder Engagement and Interaction A thorough understanding of existing above-ground/underground utilities and surficial features is essential to a well-planned, quality design that results in minimal risk to the City during construction. A detailed survey of these existing conditions provides the design team with key information for locating new facilities, determining what existing utilities conflict with planned designs and may need relocation, establishing construction staging and work areas, and ensuring compliance with local setbacks. Along with survey of the right-of-way (ROW) area, some projects may require private property surveys. These surveys include areas that may require harmonization during road raising, alignment and connection of existing utilities, such as water services and sewer laterals, adjustment of back of sidewalks to the property lines, adjustment of driveway approaches to ensure proper ingress and egress into properties, or develop full civil designs within a private property to accommodate a new facility. During this surveying process, property details are collected to assure proper restoration to the satisfaction of the property owner. Additionally, easement acquisition may be required for the proposed improvements. The legal process of obtaining temporary and/ or permanent easements is long and could affect the design and construction schedule. CES will identify owners and requirements to obtain easements for the installation of pipes, meters, pump stations, and other appurtenances. Legal processes, fees, schedules, and conditions for said land acquisition will be identified and provided to the City during the design phase. Items that may be required during this phase are: 1. Provision of a legal description and sketch for each affecting temporary construction, utility easement, or ROW take, performed to City and Miami-Dade County standards. 2. Physical delineation of parcels (with paint, stakes, flagging, etc.) in the interest of the property owner and appropriate agency. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)197 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. 3. Physical delineation of the parcel to be a helpful tool for when the property parcel is to be appraised for acquisition or temporary easement usage. 4. Determination of the different types of easements or ROW takes that may arise for the project, to include: »Temporary construction areas for storage of equipment, material, trailers, etc. »Vehicular and pedestrian ingress-egress for potential traffic flow. »Temporary relocations of affected utilities. As-built information is often not sufficiently accurate for a reliable design, resulting in unforeseen conflicts during construction. SUE is an engineering process for accurately identifying the quality of subsurface utility information needed for design projects and assists with verifying the elevation and horizontal location for existing utilities. Our team, when applicable and necessary, will verify vertical elevations and horizontal locations (VVH) for existing public and private utilities. The exact location of critical utilities will be confirmed by field survey. CES and its project managers and staff have developed or enhanced numerous “Master Utility Plans” or “Conflict Matrices,” including use of GIS, with similar services that could be beneficial to the City. Many underground utilities exist within any given roadway; therefore, understanding the utilities beneath the surface helps us strengthen our designs and reduce issues during construction. By understanding the utilities beneath the surface, we can identify potential conflicts early and develop designs that mitigate these conflicts. It also allows us to understand which conflicts we may impact during roadway designs and identify design elements that may be needed to maintain those services during construction and facilitate maintenance after construction. The initial identification of existing utilities during the site survey provides the design team with the information needed to design around a utility or to design for relocation of the utility. Of the most prominent utilities typically encountered, FPL requires significant early planning and coordination. This is of particular importance since the City is undertaking a significant electrical undergrounding effort to harden its infrastructure. Some of the hardening efforts may not have occurred during a particular task, so understanding the present utilities and future efforts is also important when designing new infrastructure. Detailed geotechnical (underground) evaluations may be necessary prior to designing any above-ground or below-ground assets. This information will assist the team in preparing the design and anticipating any conditions that will impact the material, location, or installation of the planned improvements. Specific attention is given to existing soil/rock conditions, seasonal high groundwater elevations, and other site features in the investigation. The geotechnical information is critical for the design team when considering excavation, dewatering during construction, ground failure protection for adjacent properties, and proper compaction of backfilled soils to avoid undesirable ground settlement. The area surrounding a construction site typically includes local, county (Miami-Dade County), and state (FDOT) roadways, local residential and business traffic, schools, churches, hospitals, emergency service routes, and pedestrian traffic. MOT plans are required by Miami-Dade County and FDOT for all construction projects within or near their right-of-way, along with sufficient details for the contractor to obtain an MOT permit and to maintain appropriate safety signage and lighting. The MOT plan (developed or verified by CES) ensures the contractor is aware of the vehicular and pedestrian traffic within the project area, as well as for emergency services. The CES Team will prioritize the engagement of the local fire station, local police station, local schools, local churches, and local parks to constantly keep them informed of our activities. This allows for continuous workflow and limits the impact to local emergency services. The permitting effort required to execute municipal and neighborhood improvement projects poses workable challenges, because permits within the public ROW or easements are required for the installation of the new infrastructure. Our team will address the permitting process through a very clear and simple database. This database will maintain and identify each individual permit required for the entire project and will track the status of each permit, including regulatory inspections and permit close-outs. Each individual permit will have stand-alone inspections from the regulatory agencies and individual close-out paperwork. The action of opening and closing a permit is not difficult but requires strong organizational tools and discipline. Our team members have RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)198 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. worked with the Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW), Miami-Dade County Water & Sewer Department (WASD), Miami-Dade County Department of Environmental Resources Management (DERM), SFWMD, FDEP, and other agencies in the permitting process. The increasing complexity of many construction projects and the escalating demands for project performance continue to drive significant changes in design and construction. Project integration and technical support of construction operations provide a promising response to these demands. The CES Team understands that to execute successful construction we must: »Integrate early planning with nearby residents/businesses that may be impacted. »Plan for regulatory compliance. »Consider the construction methods and sequences during design. »Provide information to support effective construction. »Identify and provide construction-applied resources. »Create an environment for safe, productive, and high-quality work. »Technically support efficient construction operations and completion. Construction inspectors are responsible for verifying construction work is performed in accordance with the contract documents. The CES Team will provide inspectors as requested during the construction phase. While on-site, each inspector will prepare an inspection report to document the field construction activities, contractor/ subcontractor workforce levels, major construction equipment, deliveries of permanent materials and equipment, unusual occurrences, accidents, work interruptions, delays, names of visitors, and weather conditions. Documentation of construction activities will include progress photos, archival photos, and videotape, as necessary. The contractor’s work will be tracked according to quantity and quality, and actual progress will be compared with anticipated progress to keep projects on schedule. The sequencing of construction for public infrastructure work must incorporate construction of the work while operation of the existing system continues. In addition, the order of construction must not conflict with follow-on work, must maintain site access for construction and local roadway access for residents, businesses, and emergency services, and provide for ready and accessible storage of contractor equipment and materials during construction. Based on our extensive experience performing engineering projects, there are three major stakeholders that require attention: elected officials, regulators, and residents. Throughout our experience, the biggest take-away is that we need to understand the needs and concerns of each stakeholder, and we need to instill confidence in the stakeholders. To achieve this, you need to listen to their concerns and provide responses that display confidence and transparency. For example, residents want to understand the duration and impact that these projects will have on their daily lives and their private property. We understand this, and depending on the needs of the project, we perform meetings where residents can meet with the design team, ask questions, express their concerns, and receive responses that are tailored to their particular question. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)199 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES recognizes continuing services contracts require a different technical approach than project-specific contracts. Each project will need an individualized approach tailored to the City’s needs and the community in which it is taking place. With 25+ years of experience working in the municipal services industry throughout various jurisdictions across South Florida, CES is exceptionally positioned to provide continuing professional services. Our project approach has been developed from extensive municipal continuing services experience and our review of the City’s RFQ, addenda, published requirements, and capital priorities. The objectives of CES are to: »Develop and successfully complete projects that meet the City’s technical goals. »Develop projects that will be compatible with the surrounding community and cause the least disruption to residents/users during construction. »Provide project designs that are cost-effective, constructible, sustainable, and of the greatest value to the City’s service area. »Consider all aspects that will lead to resiliency, sustainability, and longevity. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)200 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Upon being awarded the project by the City, we will begin coordinating with City staff to schedule a kick-off meeting. At this meeting, we will identify key participants, discuss the project’s purpose and goals, define team member roles and responsibilities, milestones, and identify expectations. Kick-Off Meeting PHASE 1 This phase will consist of establishing the project’s preliminary engineering studies or requirements and opportunities that will address the key factors previously identified, including: »Conduct field reconnaissance to assess existing conditions. »Develop a master plan by categorizing and prioritizing projects. »Develop schematic designs and establish the basis of design. »Develop individual schedules and an overall program schedule. »Develop conceptual opinion of probable construction cost estimates (OPCC) to assist the City in establishing overall budgetary impact and cash deployment timelines. Conceptual Design PHASE 2 This phase will include production of a construction set of documents and permit approvals, including: »Preparing 90% and 100% design plans. »Preparing complete project specifications. »Completing the prescribed permitting process and acquiring all necessary permits. »In-depth QA/QC, incorporating all disciplines prior to the issuance of 100% design plans. Final Design Construction Documents PHASE 4 This phase will consist of engineering evaluations, preliminary plans preparation, and permitting effort that will address the key factors previously identified, including: »Geotechnical investigation. »Preparation of topographic survey. »Development of ROW cross section. »Selection of infrastructure size, location, and alignment. »Special considerations—schools, hospitals, special needs facilities. »Permits/easements requirements and schedules. »Selection of materials, potential environmental mitigation. »Schedule—quick start; fast track; milestones. »Updating the estimates of probable construction costs performed in Phase 2. »Construction sequencing and phasing. »Developing an MOT plan. »Community and public involvement. Preliminary Design Development PHASE 3 This phase will include supporting or assisting City staff, consultants, or contractors with construction management services, construction administration, and resident engineering. CES will hold constructability reviews prior to construction to ensure a seamless transition into the construction phase of the project. CES will also conduct shop drawing reviews, pay applications reviews, and field inspections and provide responses to requests for information (RFI). CES can also serve as the City’s owner’s representative on large or interagency projects. Construction Phase Services PHASE 6 This phase will include assisting with bidding, issuing addenda, attending pre-bid meetings, reviewing submitted bids, and providing City staff with award recommendations. Bidding and Award of Contract PHASE 5 RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)201 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. The CES Team’s project management principles, procedures, and methods, established over the years through the execution of engineering projects, will be tailored to meet the City’s needs. Based on our in-house Project Management Plan (PMP), the CES Team will prepare a project-specific Project Execution Plan (PEP) for each task assigned. The PEP will provide the City and CES’s internal management with assurance that the objectives of each project are defined, understood, and achieved. The PEP will represent how the CES Team will manage and implement its services on each project. The intent of the PEP is to establish the project requirements; set a basis for controlling scope, schedule, and budget of the project tasks; and describe the principal responsibilities and authority of the project participants. The PEP is intended to be a dynamic document and will be reviewed quarterly, with its contents revised as necessary to address changes in the policies and procedures of our team and the City. The CES Team will begin with a kick-off meeting to identify the key participants, discuss the project’s purpose and goals, define team member roles and responsibilities, and identify expectations. The planning and scheduling of the meeting will be the responsibility of our project manager, working in conjunction with City staff. CES will distribute meeting minutes within three working days of the conclusion of any meeting. Action items resulting from the meeting will be identified, including a responsible individual and a date when the action is to be completed. Action items will be entered into a tracking database and will be reviewed by the project manager on a weekly basis. Any action item that is delinquent will be reviewed to determine the reason it has not been completed. If subconsultants are required, each will be given a specific scope, budget, and schedule. The project manager will meet with each subconsultant on a periodic basis to coordinate key technical issues, schedule requirements, and upcoming work. If the subconsultant falls behind schedule, they will be required to add staffing until the progress meets the schedule. All subconsultants will be required to follow the CES QA/QC plan to ensure consistent deliverables. As part of the PEP, a design schedule will be prepared based on the tasks outlined in the scope of work. The design schedule will indicate the overall project schedule and the duration of each major phase that leads to the bid documents. Submittal dates, review periods, and the printing schedule will also be included. The schedule will not only depict the most efficient workflow among design disciplines but will also illustrate the required deliverable production schedule. Adherence to the project schedule is achieved by a continuous analysis of staffing resources and requirements and production cost/schedule monitoring. CES can provide a schedule in various platforms but has found MS Project or P3e or P6 to be the most prudent scheduling tools. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)202 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. The CES Team will develop and implement a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) based on a logical organization of the work with flexibility to adjust with the evolution of the project. The WBS will include all tasks and any overall management tasks but will be primarily directed toward deliverable products. The WBS will form the basis for identifying schedule activities and monitoring costs. The PEP will identify task leaders responsible for administering each WBS. For example, WBSs for these projects will include each design discipline, and the task leader will be responsible for that WBS. We will also develop standard cost control reports for every level of the WBS, consistent with the schedule, and will track original budget, earned value, approved changes, current budget, current expenditures, estimate to complete, pending changes, and anticipated changes. The cost reports will compare planned versus actual expenses and identify variances at the cost account level. Explanation of the variances will be the responsibility of the WBS managers. Regular monitoring will allow the project manager to identify negative cost trends, determine the root cause of the variances, and establish corrective actions to rectify the situation. Our project manager will develop a QA/QC plan at the onset of the project that defines the formal QA/QC requirements that will be implemented throughout the project. The CES Team will conduct QA/QC reviews for all projects. Internal reviews, checks, and coordination will be conducted on an ongoing basis to coordinate among various disciplines to ensure a fully integrated product. We will conduct internal meetings to review the status of drawings, specifications, process calculations, permitting issues, vendor coordination, and subconsultant work. While the 100% phase represents the complete contract documents requiring one final review prior to submitting permits, CES performs periodic reviews (30%, 60%, 90%, or specialty/intermediate) as required or dependent upon the type, size, or complexity of the project. In the 100% discipline check, the project manager or task leader associated with each design discipline will perform a detailed review of plans and specifications within their discipline. At the same time, interface points associated with other disciplines will be reviewed. The project manager performs a detailed check of the entire design package. The final interdisciplinary review is conducted at the 100% completeness level and primarily represents a coordination check among design disciplines to ensure complete compatibility. Representatives of each discipline will convene at a meeting chaired by the project manager. Each design will be reviewed with emphasis on interface/coordination requirements. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)203 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Understanding the project’s parameters and limits prior to commencing design prevents project delays from occurring. The CES Team’s experience in providing continuing professional services brings extensive knowledge of the key factors critical to the successful execution of work. Our team’s core design personnel are available immediately and will be mobilized upon the Notice to Proceed. Our approach to the project schedule is to break the work into multiple phases/tasks/contracts, expediting specific activities that would enhance the overall schedule or value to the City. For example, if permitting and design activities can be completed early for one of the project phases, a separate construction package could/can be issued to get a head start on that work. Multiple contract packages can also have local economic benefits, allowing smaller local and specialty contractors to participate in the program. We understand that the most important aspect of developing a successful project is the communication among City staff, stakeholders, and our team. Having regular meetings, whether virtual or in person, is a key component of always having everyone informed and agreeing with the ongoing work. For virtual coordination, meetings, or project data transfer, CES uses multiple platforms to fulfill the team needs. The CES Team will develop complete and detailed design documents in accordance with City design standards and specifications, AutoCAD standards, and regulatory requirements. Technical and constructability reviews by senior staff will be conducted for project quality assurance and constructability. Complex Schedule An excellent example of the CES Team developing and managing a significantly complex schedule with multiple parallel deliverables is the City of Miami Beach’s West Avenue project. The active project’s schedule integrates approximately 10 disciplines, 53 individual deliverables, 17 interfacing utility companies, and 18 individual permit approvals. Due to the magnitude of the project and its impacts on the surrounding community, a segmented approach to construction further expands the schedule to incorporate overall permits, phased construction activities, and phased close-outs. Each discipline has separate deliverable dates, while the engineering and design schedule extends through construction and final close-out. In effect, the project is managed at a program level, with multiple disciplines, interdependent activities, different delivery dates, and a comprehensive existing-utilities program requiring significant utility coordination and relocation. The schedule also incorporates an extensive public involvement component, including one-on-one coordination with 189 individual property owners to secure licensing agreement signatures, as well as multiple in-depth meetings with regulatory agencies, including SFWMD and DERM, to establish and advance the permitting strategy. This level of schedule complexity requires continuous coordination of dependencies, milestones, permitting activities, stakeholder commitments, and parallel workstreams to maintain progress toward the City’s required delivery milestones. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)204 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. We anticipate the following early action and issue resolutions to be important for the timely completion of future projects: Area of Concern Resolution Traffic disruption along major arterial roads Proper MOT consideration during the design phase Work along roads in areas adjacent to residential developments, schools, and canals with sensitive habitat Environmental mitigation Coordination with critical regulatory agencies and FDOT Holding pre-application meetings with agency reviewers once a basis of design has been established Disruption of the operations of businesses along a project route Community notifications/after-hours work schedule Disruptions created by construction on narrow residential streets Public/community involvement Maintenance of all utility services during construction Proactive coordination with the City, responsiveness from the CES Team, and conflict resolution, if issues arise An aggressive plan for community involvement and outreach during the early phases of design planning will be crucial to avoiding delays in project implementation. Because of the diverse conditions that may exist along improvement corridors— sensitive habitat, residential developments, commercial properties, and planned development areas—it is likely that some groups will have concerns about the project components, a specific alignment, or the project schedule. The CES Team will work with City staff to provide the key information needed to convey the scope, timing, and benefits of the work to the community and stakeholders. Upon project commencement, the CES Team will conduct an initial screening to optimize design features. We will evaluate a wide range of technical and non-technical issues. This process will require coordination and input from City staff, as well as the CES Team. We will evaluate various categories (e.g., construction costs, constructability, environmental impacts, schedule, operational flexibility, operational reliability, etc.). The CES Team will then compare alternative options with respect to each category, present them to the City, and ultimately implement the components that have been agreed upon. The CES Team will ensure major design elements requiring decisions by City staff will be identified at an early stage and that an agreement is reached before embarking on the subsequent design. Our approach to management of the design process will be multifaceted, involving: »A detailed design work schedule with multiple and frequent opportunities to assess progress, to perform QA/QC and constructability reviews, and for coordination with City staff. »Understanding the locations of existing easements for each project site and not beginning hard design until all easements are located. »Establishing a clear schedule for the delivery of work products, incorporating specific dates for internal deliverables, including preliminary draft submittals, cross- checking by other technical disciplines, and QA/QC reviews. »Monitoring the allocation of resources of the CES Team. »Regularly assessing the status of production to ensure the timely completion of project submittals. »Developing a detailed staffing plan that provides an efficient schedule for the involvement of all technical disciplines. »Keeping City staff involved during the entire design phase. »Conducting project team meetings to coordinate diverse technical disciplines, which will also afford City staff an opportunity to assess the status of the design. »Ensuring all project records are accurate, neat, complete, indexed, understandable, and dated. »Closely coordinating all design support disciplines to avoid design conflicts and data acquisition delays. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)205 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES is a local firm with offices throughout South Florida, including our headquarters in Miami-Dade County, which allows us to quickly mobilize to the City. The CES engineering staff is equipped with the latest software to perform all necessary services for this contract. Our teams use these software packages daily and understand how the software packages interact with each other to execute the model more efficiently, and transition to the design with minimal effort. We work with industry-leading technology and software for CAD and BIM workflows. We use Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D® as our main solution for civil design. CES’s software capabilities include, but are not limited to, ESRI ArcMAP, ArcGIS and ArcGIS Pro, AutoDesk InfoWorks and InfraWorks. The following is a list of the CAD, modeling, and GIS-related software and capabilities used and maintained at CES: »3Ds Max »Advance Steel »AutoCAD »AutoCAD DWG History »AutoCAD Architecture »AutoCAD Electrical »AutoCAD MEP »AutoCAD Map 3D »AutoCAD Mechanical »AutoCAD Plant 3D »AutoCAD Raster Design »Civil 3D »Dynamo Studio »Fabrication CADmep »Formit Pro »InfoWater »InfoWorks ICM »InfraWorks »ReCap Pro »Revit »Robot Structural Analysis Pro »Vehicle Tracking »Watershed Analysis for InfraWorks »Storm and Sewer Analysis »ArcGIS Pro »ArcMAP »EPANET »Water Gems AutoCAD® Civil 3D® and AutoDesk InfraWorks help improve project outcomes with the ability to create, explore, and evaluate design concepts in a real-world contextual environment and to provide a better way to envision and understand the implications and impacts of different alternatives in preliminary design by combining and connecting data to better create, view, analyze, share, and manage information to make decisions in context. Our team integrates AutoCAD® Civil 3D® BIM technology to develop comprehensive models for water-related infrastructure projects. Existing and proposed utilities are converted into three-dimensional network entities. In lieu of drafting simplistic, two-dimensional objects in a complex underground corridor, Civil 3D® creates interconnected/intelligent networks. Each network is composed of entities that share similar design properties (i.e., shape, size, slope, cover depth, etc.), location/space, and potential construction conflicts during installation. Our professional staff has an established record of design experience and performance with municipalities throughout South Florida that exemplifies the quality and capabilities that the City desires. CES is fully available and committed to the City to ensure successful project implementation and delivery. The CES Team is highly responsive and will communicate proactively to keep moving forward, avoid surprises, and mitigate delivery risks. We will assign the optimal professionals according to their level of experience in the work required. This approach will drive solid budget control and the ability to complete tasks simultaneously while reducing the overall project schedule. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)206 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. APPROACH/METHODOLOGY RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)207 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES’s Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) approach is organized around the City’s principal evaluation priorities: effective cost control, reliable schedule management, quality assurance and quality control, responsive task order delivery, and clear communication with the City and affected stakeholders. Our methodology is scalable for a continuing services contract and directly addresses the solicitation requirements for contract administration, inspection, materials sampling and testing, cost estimating, and multidisciplinary inspection of structural, building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and roofing work in accordance with applicable codes and Florida law. The City of Sunny Isles Beach presents a compact, highly urbanized coastal environment with constrained rights-of-way, intensive pedestrian activity, active residential and hospitality uses, and critical transportation corridors such as Collins Avenue and Sunny Isles Boulevard. The City’s FY 2026–27 Capital Improvement Program identifies a diverse pipeline that includes bridges, drainage and pump stations, coastal and marine improvements, streetscape and sidewalk work, lighting and utility undergrounding, parking, public buildings, parks, solar and electrical systems, security improvements, and ADA and pedestrian-safety projects. CES will protect the City’s interests by emphasizing public safety, coastal resilience, stormwater performance, continuity of access and operations, quality and code compliance, careful staging and MOT, timely agency and utility coordination, and clear communication with residents, businesses, condominium associations, hotels, visitors, and other stakeholders. »Cost Control and Value: CES will establish an authorized budget baseline for each task order, maintain current commitments and forecasts, independently evaluate proposed changes, and identify value engineering opportunities that preserve safety, quality, functionality, and lifecycle performance. »Schedule Control: CES will review baseline and updated schedules, validate reported progress through field observations, monitor critical and near-critical paths, identify emerging delay risks, and recommend mitigation or recovery actions before contractual milestones are affected. »QA/QC and Inspection: CES will apply risk-based inspection, coordinated materials testing, documented deficiency management, and auditable closeout procedures. The Contractor will retain responsibility for quality control; CES will provide independent oversight and recommendations to the City. CES understands that this is a continuing services contract rather than one defined construction project. Accordingly, the schedule on the following page is a scalable task order delivery sequence that will be refined for each assignment based on scope, complexity, permits, funding requirements, construction duration, and the City’s required completion date. The principal issues anticipated include rapid mobilization, multiple concurrent assignments, constrained urban work areas, Collins Avenue and local traffic impacts, pedestrian and property access, coastal weather and stormwater conditions, utility conflicts, code and permit compliance, public communications, long-lead materials, and timely resolution of changes and claims. CES’s available CEI services encompass task order planning and mobilization; preconstruction and constructability review; cost estimating and value engineering; construction contract administration; schedule review and control; multidisciplinary inspection; materials sampling and testing coordination; quality assurance; MOT and public access monitoring; grant and regulatory compliance support; stakeholder coordination; change, allowance, payment, and claims review; testing and commissioning oversight; and Substantial Completion, Final Completion, closeout, and warranty transition services. The specific services, staffing, deliverables, and schedule applicable to each assignment will be defined in the authorized task order. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)208 CES CONSULTANTS, INC.

Closeout and Warranty Transition Reconcile final quantities and changes; verify lien releases, final payment support, records turnover, warranty dates, and unresolved-item closure. Within the timeframe established by the applicable task order and Construction Documents Within five business days following authorization of each task order, or within another timeframe established by the City, CES will submit a project-specific work plan identifying the assignment scope, responsible personnel, required deliverables, activity durations, review periods, decision deadlines, inspection coverage, reporting requirements, and contractual milestones. The work plan will identify each deliverable’s responsible CES lead and required City decision date. CES will monitor the work plan throughout the assignment and provide early notice when an issue may affect an established deadline. CES’s methodology is suited to the City’s continuing contract because it combines standardized controls with project-specific staffing and procedures. The same core governance, documentation, quality, cost, and schedule requirements will apply across assignments, while inspection coverage and technical specialists will be scaled to the actual risks of building, park, roadway, bridge, waterway, utility, transportation, or other City work. »Risk-based planning directs the highest level of review and field coverage to safety-critical, concealed, high-cost, schedule-critical, and public-impact work. »Stage-gate reviews at authorization, preconstruction, active construction, Substantial Completion, and Final Completion prevent incomplete work or documentation from advancing unnoticed. »Integrated cost, schedule, inspection, testing, RFI, submittal, change, NCR, and complaint logs provide one traceable record for timely decisions and audit support. »Short look-ahead planning and early-warning reporting allow CES and the City to address utility conflicts, access constraints, procurement delays, weather threats, and third-party approvals before they affect the critical path. »Scalable staffing gives the City access to the right CEI and specialty resources without maintaining unnecessary full-time coverage when project activity does not require it. »Clear escalation thresholds keep routine field matters moving while promptly elevating safety, cost, schedule, quality, public- impact, or contractual issues to the City’s project manager. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)209 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES will adapt its standard CEI controls to the technical and operational risks of each City assignment. For drainage and pump station work, emphasis will be placed on dewatering, utility conflicts, flood protection, maintenance of service, testing, commissioning, and grant documentation. For bridges, piers, seawalls, and coastal improvements, CES will coordinate structural, marine, environmental, permitting, corrosion protection, and public access requirements. For streetscape, lighting, utility undergrounding, parking, and pedestrian projects, CES will emphasize MOT, ADA accessibility, nighttime work, business and residential access, utility coordination, restoration, and FDOT or Miami-Dade County requirements. For parks, garages, buildings, solar, EV charging, and security projects, CES will provide discipline-appropriate structural, building, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, roofing, specialty system, and commissioning oversight. CES will use a single point-of-accountability structure led by the CEI Project Manager, who will serve as the City’s primary contact and remain accountable for task order scope, schedule, budget, staffing, quality, and communication. Each assignment will have a designated day-to-day lead supported by qualified inspectors, project controls, document control, materials testing, cost and schedule specialists, and discipline-specific professionals appropriate to the work. Before accepting a task order, CES will confirm staff availability, current workload, required disciplines, and backup resources. Upon receipt of a task order request, CES will acknowledge the request within one business day and coordinate scope, staffing, deliverables, schedule, fee, and project-specific risks with the City. Following written authorization, CES will mobilize the required resources within 48 to 72 hours, depending on the assignment’s complexity and urgency. CES understands that task orders may be assigned through rotation or at the City’s discretion based on the qualifications and suitability of the available consultants. CES will maintain current staff availability information and promptly demonstrate the project-specific personnel, technical disciplines, relevant experience, and capacity available for each requested assignment. CES will establish the task order work plan, reporting requirements, project logs, cost and schedule controls, communication protocols, and performance measures during mobilization. A Task Order Tracking Log and monthly dashboard will provide the City with current information regarding assignments, milestones, budgets, risks, deliverables, and resource allocation. CES will implement a CEI framework designed to support the City’s continuing services contract, which may involve multiple concurrent projects across various disciplines and project types. CES will provide centralized oversight, ensuring consistency and efficiency across projects. Key elements of CES’s approach include: »CEI Project Manager: A dedicated CEI Project Manager will serve as the main point of contact for all assigned projects, ensuring alignment with City priorities and performance expectations. »Integrated Project Controls: CES will maintain a project dashboard tracking budget vs. actual expenditure across projects; schedule performance and milestone adherence; risk exposure and mitigation status; and resource allocation across CEI staff. »Standardized Processes: Uniform procedures for scheduling, cost control, reporting, and documentation will be utilized across all assigned projects to ensure consistency and auditability. »Scalable Staffing Model: CES will deploy resources dynamically to support multiple active projects without compromising quality or responsiveness. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)210 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. Each assignment will begin with a concise task order work plan defining scope, deliverables, staffing, schedule, fee, reimbursables, subconsultants, reporting requirements, and project-specific risks. CES will not begin work until the City issues the required written Notice to Proceed or Task Order. This disciplined startup supports fast response while maintaining the controls required for a continuing contract with multiple concurrent assignments. Because the City has confirmed that the budget will depend on the specific project, CES will right-size each task order work plan, staffing model, inspection coverage, deliverables, and level of project controls to the authorized scope, construction value, complexity, risk, and available budget. CES understands that the City’s Capital Improvement Program includes projects and broader programs of varying scale; services under this continuing contract will be authorized only through eligible project-specific task orders consistent with the solicitation, CCNA limitations, and City procurement requirements. CES understands that this contract operates under a continuing services/task order-based model, requiring responsiveness, flexibility, and efficient mobilization. Upon issuance of a task order, CES will: »Acknowledge each task order request within one business day and coordinate with the City to confirm scope, staffing, schedule, deliverables, fee, and required technical disciplines. Following written authorization, mobilize the appropriate resources within 48 to 72 hours, depending on assignment complexity and urgency. »Assign a dedicated CEI team aligned with project scope and risk profile. »Establish project controls (schedule tracking, cost logs, reporting systems) within the first week. »Coordinate with City staff to confirm priorities, constraints, and stakeholder requirements. »CES will maintain a Task Order Tracking Log to monitor status of all active assignments; key milestones and deliverables; budget and schedule performance; and resource allocation. As the City’s CEI consultant, we recognize that early construction management involvement is critical to project success. During planning and design phases, CES will provide: »Constructability reviews at the City-designated design milestones, which may include the 30%, 60%, 90%, and final design stages, to identify construction risks, utility conflicts, sequencing concerns, access limitations, and potential cost or schedule impacts. »Cost estimating and validation to support budget development and control. »Schedule development and phasing analysis to optimize project delivery. »Utility conflict identification (SUE coordination) to reduce unforeseen conditions. »Permitting strategy support (DERM, FDEP, FEMA, etc.). »Value engineering input to improve efficiency and reduce lifecycle costs. »Project-specific phasing and constructability reviews addressing continuous public access, facility operations, seasonal and weather constraints, agency approvals, utility shutdowns, long-lead equipment, and technical risks identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)211 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. When an assignment is funded in whole or in part through federal, state, or other grant programs, CES will coordinate with the City to identify the requirements applicable to the specific funding source. The task order work plan will incorporate required documentation, reporting, record retention, procurement, labor-compliance, environmental, reimbursement, and audit requirements, as applicable. CES will maintain organized and traceable project records to support the City’s grant administration and reimbursement efforts. Any specialized grant administration services beyond the authorized CEI scope will be identified and defined in the applicable task order. Depending on the authorized assignment, this may include documentation required by FDEP’s Resilient Florida Program, FEMA, FDOT, Miami-Dade County, or other applicable funding agencies.

Estimates will account for Sunny Isles Beach conditions that may materially affect pricing, including restricted work areas, urban logistics, traffic-control requirements, limited delivery windows, utility conflicts, coastal exposure, dewatering, restoration, permitting, escalation, and work-hour constraints. RFQ # 26-07-01 | CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH | CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES (CCNA)225 CES CONSULTANTS, INC. CES will provide estimating and cost analysis services to support informed decision-making, budget control, and effective management of project costs throughout the planning, design, procurement, and construction phases of the work. Our project controls professionals will develop, review, and evaluate cost information as needed to help the City identify potential budget risks early, assess changes in scope, and minimize cost overruns. Depending on the phase and needs of the project, CES estimating services may include preparation or review of opinions of probable construction cost, independent cost estimates, engineer’s estimates, change order cost evaluations, bid analyses, schedule-related cost impacts, quantity takeoffs, conceptual and detailed cost assessments, and construction progress cost forecasting. CES may also assist in evaluating allowances, contingencies, escalation considerations, unit pricing, labor and equipment rates, and the reasonableness of contractor pricing for proposed modifications to the work. During design and preconstruction, CES will review available plans, specifications, geotechnical information, permit requirements, phasing constraints, utility conflicts, and other project-specific factors that may influence cost and schedule. Based on this review, CES will prepare or validate estimates using available design information and accepted estimating practices, while documenting assumptions, exclusions, clarifications, and applicable risks. As the design advances or project conditions change, CES may update estimates to reflect revised scope, market conditions, constructability issues, and schedule impacts. During construction, CES will support the City by reviewing contractor proposals, change requests, and claims-related cost submissions to determine whether the pricing appears complete, reasonable, and consistent with the Contract Documents and actual field conditions. CES may also prepare independent estimates to support negotiations and provide cost comparisons against submitted contractor values. Where appropriate, CES will coordinate estimating efforts with schedule analysis and risk assessment to help the City understand both immediate and downstream cost impacts of proposed decisions. Through disciplined estimating and project controls practices, CES will provide the City with reliable cost information that supports budget management, procurement decisions, scope validation, and timely resolution of cost-related issues. CES will attend, facilitate as appropriate, and actively participate in Value Engineering (VE) meetings with the City, Design Consultant, Contractor, and other project stakeholders to evaluate opportunities for improving project value without compromising safety, quality, functionality, regulatory compliance, or long-term operational performance. CES understands that value engineering is not solely a cost-reduction exercise, but rather a disciplined process for identifying practical alternatives that optimize constructability, efficiency, durability, maintainability, schedule performance, and overall lifecycle value. During VE meetings, CES will review proposed alternatives to determine their potential effects on project scope, capital cost, operating cost, reliability, schedule, permitting, maintenance requirements, and operational impacts to the City. CES will provide cost estimating input, constructability perspective, and implementation considerations to help the City make informed decisions regarding the feasibility and benefit of each proposed alternative. Evaluations may include material substitutions, equipment alternatives, phasing modifications, means of reducing utility conflicts, improvements to site logistics, alternative construction sequencing, and other design or construction approaches intended to improve project outcomes. CES will coordinate with the Design Consultant and other stakeholders to confirm that proposed VE concepts remain consistent with design intent, applicable codes and standards, permit requirements, and the functional needs of the project. CES will also document the alternatives discussed, summarize the basis for recommendations, identify any cost or schedule implications, and track accepted items through design revisions, contractor pricing, and implementation as applicable. By contributing technical, cost, and field-based insight during the VE process, CES will help the City identify practical solutions that improve project delivery, reduce unnecessary expenditures, and strengthen overall project performance.
