subsequent submittals; and 4) Achieve alignment <br />with City staff early in the project to address <br />existing nonstandard field conditions and <br />associated improvements. <br />Electronic Plan Submittal, Plan Check, and <br />Document Management <br />With established submission requirements, workflows <br />will verify that documents are up-to-date, applications <br />are complete, and appropriate date/timestamps are <br />shown on the plans. These benefits provide the ability <br />to audit what has changed on a submittal (and by <br />whom), provide access to appropriate personnel, and <br />track plan review schedules. By utilizing electronic <br />submittal processes, agencies have increased the <br />speed of plan routing to departments, freed up <br />space previously used for plan storage, and created <br />an environmentally friendly system resulting in less <br />paper waste and pollution from physical plan delivery. <br />As an extension of the City, the Harris team's <br />thorough understanding of these procedures <br />will create a near seamless transition with your <br />digital plan check process. <br />Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) <br />Our QA/QC process will be led by Principal Agent <br />Craig Siefert, PE. His understanding of Agency <br />expectations and track record of leading development <br />programs will facilitate developing a QC program for <br />our services. He will be supported by Associate- <br />In-Charge/Project Manager Michael Wu, PE, who <br />will also utilize Harris' QC procedures to confirm <br />accuracy of all deliverables when leading projects. At <br />the inception of the project, we will verify that the City <br />and project team understand the scope of services, <br />schedule, budget, and expected work deliverables. <br />✓ .,. 100 i <br />Listen to Town concerns <br />Complete QC checklists <br />Su bmittaI sent to Town/ <br />Final design and <br />project stakeholders <br />deliverables ready for <br />bidding an nstmction <br />� <br />I' O CY <br />WSW <br />1 <br />Complete submittalfor <br />QC review to makesure <br />Receiveand respond to <br />Address comments from <br />intern al review <br />minimum design standards <br />comments m froTown/ <br />Town/project stakeholders <br />and project goals and <br />project stakeholders <br />(further refine design <br />intents are met <br />submittals) <br />■ . ■ ■ ■ . <br />. . ■ ■ ■ ■ . . ■ ■ ■ ■ <br />. . . ■ ■ ■ <br />Coordination of Submittals <br />Our approach to developing strong relationships with <br />City staff is predicated on trust and a commitment to <br />shared learning. Lessons learned, policies, and <br />procedures will be discussed and implemented, <br />updates to applicable standards will regularly be <br />provided, and plan/map check redlines will be <br />reviewed together, as necessary. <br />Community Involvement <br />Harris celebrates opportunities to create value for <br />the communities in which we live and work. From <br />everyday efforts to improve community infrastructure <br />and support development efforts to diving into the <br />trenches of community service, we actively seek <br />new ways to enhance our clients' reputations as <br />excellent places to live and do business. Some of <br />these actions include: <br />Local Presence. We are active participants, <br />committee members, and leaders in local <br />organizations and industry events. We maintain a <br />local presence and continue to learn about our <br />community through active participation in many <br />professional organizations. <br />Sustainable Solutions for our Clients. Harris <br />develops solutions that balance environmental and <br />social benefits, while meeting client and project <br />objectives. Our client's most successful projects — <br />and the ones we are most proud of —are those that <br />make the greatest impact on people's lives. We <br />pride ourselves on the impacts made within <br />our clients' footprints by providing solutions <br />to support the development of well -planned, <br />balanced, and self-sustaining communities. <br />Environmental Stewardship. Harris has a <br />corporate sustainability program that implements <br />sustainable solutions. Practices include paperless <br />offices modeled after the California Green Business <br />Program, recycling and the use of reusable and <br />recycled materials, and conservation of energy and <br />water. We encourage carpooling, public transit, and <br />cycling to work by promoting Bike to Work days and <br />selecting offices near public transit centers. <br />Harris & Associat�e'� itxcCouncl l <br />15 — 161 l.d.
