Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Sedaru, Inc.,
to provide computer water modeling licensing and support services, for a three-year period
expiring December 3, 2021, with provisions for one two-year renewal option exercisable by the
City Manager and City Attorney, in an amount not to exceed $150,000 annually for a total
agreement amount not to exceed $750,000, including renewal option, subject to nonsubstantive
changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
The City's water enterprise provides high quality, safe drinking water to all of Santa Ana's
residents and businesses via a network of wells, pumps, reservoirs and 450 miles of pipelines. In
order to assure overall water system reliability and better evaluate current and future system
hydraulic operations and needs, industry best practices are to create and maintain a water
system hydraulic computer model. In 2014, the City Council authorized the creation of such a
model and awarded a contract to Sedaru, Inc. (formerly IDModeling, Inc.), at the conclusion of an
open competitive bid process. One of the primary benefits of the water model solution offered by
Sedaru is the SEDARU® web portal which allows for the water model to be controlled remotely
and reduces the amount of staff time and training necessary to maintain and effectively utilize the
computer model. Additionally, the SEDARU web portal allows staff to perform capital planning
and monitor system performance live.
Approval of this recommended action will allow for the continued use of the SEDARU software
and support services for the evaluation and analysis of the City's water system for reliability,
system hydraulic operations, and future development -driven needs. An important industry best
practice is to sustain, support and improve a water system hydraulic computer model that applies
flexible technology to assist in the optimization of daily operations and to identify hydraulically
deficient areas where the water system and residents would benefit from future capital

improvements. The water enterprise requires ongoing licensing and support of the SEDARU
software and its various suites to optimize the following operational, engineering and managerial
tasks:
1. Continued hydraulic simulations and recalibration of the model;
2. Review of proposed development projects and ability of City to meet user needs;
3. Analysis pipeline deficiencies for replacement projects;
4. Simulations of water production controls;
5. Track, trend, monitor and report on system production and energy usage;
6. Plan capital improvement projects; and
7. Provide predictive water operational simulations to determine water quality within the
system and potentially reduce field related water quality sampling.
Staff recommends that the agreement be approved in order to continue to utilize modern
technology for the effective management of the City's water system. Sedaru, Inc. has performed
exceptionally well, has delivered a comprehensive water model and met all of the City's
requirements.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
