Kleinfelder Statement Of Quahficiltions for On -Call Material Testing and Special Inspection Services
<br />for City of Santa Ana, RFH No. 20-111
<br />The following outlines a typical work plan for materials testing and inspection services anticipated
<br />under this contract:
<br />Our project team will meet with City representatives to initialize the project expectations, in terms of
<br />scope of services, schedule, and budget requirements. Communication controls and expectations will
<br />be clearly outlined for future activities. The priniary goal is to have a mutual understanding of the
<br />City's expectations of Kleinfelder and the conduct of the construction activities. With a clear
<br />understanding of the expectations, unanticipated changes and surprises can be dramatically
<br />reduced. At this time, we will review project plans and specifications to evaluate the intended scope
<br />of services and provide alternatives for consideration.

<br />After reviewing the plans, specifications, and schedule, we can prepare a proposed scope of services
<br />and cost estimate. The construction schedule will have a large impact on the requirements and
<br />duration of our services. It is important, both from a scheduling and accounting standpoint, to have
<br />an agreed -upon schedule and budget to follow and measure, as we proceed through the
<br />construction process. These elements will help us to provide the City with progress benchmarks,
<br />both from a financial and construction viewpoint. Once our proposal is approved by the City, we will
<br />receive a Work Authorization.

<br />Our Project Manager/Principal Agent will personally manage City projects and work closely with our
<br />Task Order Managers, typically the individual that attended the kickoff meeting. We will hold an
<br />internal kickoff meeting with designated staff to review documents, project scope, expectations, work
<br />practices, and schedule subconsultants as needed.
<br />Quality Management
<br />Mr. Hanna will be supported by our Quality Assurance Manager,
<br />Mr. Mike Dorsch, to provide proactive testing and inspection in
<br />accordance with the project needs. F nr iVp ito ei T.e, o r, i e

<br />Quality Plan is the key ingredient of our QMP regardless of scope
<br />or budget.
<br />For medium to large projects where observation services are
<br />required on a full-time basis, we will assign a multi -disciplined
<br />Senior Technician to reduce the need for more than one
<br />technician for multiple operations at the site. This Senior
<br />Technician will also coordinate resources in the field. In the event
<br />that the job sequence requires more than one technician, we will
<br />provide a supplemental technician (upon City approval) who will work at the direction of our Senior
<br />Technician.

<br />Based on the discussion and information gathered from the kickoff meeting with the City staff, a
<br />Kleinfelder pavement engineer will review and/or recommend and develop concrete and asphalt mix
<br />designs considering the traffic loads, subgrade modulus, and sustainability factors. A road alignment
<br />with a weak subgrade and requiring reconstruction may be a good candidate for full dopth
<br />reclamation. Typically, this approach is cost effective where long runs of pavement require
<br />replacement. Recycling the existing asphalt pavement and base material and blending it into the
<br />subgrade soils reduces hauling and disposal of material.
