TOPIC: Water Control Panel Building Services
AGENDA TITLE
Approve Agreements with KDC Systems, Trimax, and Instrument Control Services for
Water Resources Control Panel Building Services for a Total Amount not to Exceed
$750,000 for up to a Five -Year Term (Non -General Fund)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute agreements with KDC Systems, Trimax, and
Instrument Control Services to provide control panel building services, for a three-year
term beginning January 18, 2022, and expiring January 17, 2025, with provisions for one,
two-year renewal period exercisable by the City Manager and City Attorney, with a shared
aggregate amount not to exceed of $750,000, subject to non -substantive changes
approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Water Resources Division oversees and maintains the daily
operations of the City's water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is composed
of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations,
10 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 49 million gallons, four pressure regulating
stations, and seven connection points to the Metropolitan Water District. The system has
an average daily demand of 30 million gallons from its, roughly, 45,000 service
connections. Control and monitoring of the water system is coordinated with the City's
Supervised Control and Data Acquisition system.
The Water Resources Division utilizes numerous industrial control panels (i.e., motor
control centers, remote terminal units, switchboards, and programmable logic computers)
to control the various mechanical components of the water and sewer system (i.e.,
variable frequency drives, motor operated vales, magnetic flowmeters, and radio and
communication equipment). As a result, the design, construction, and quality assurance
testing of industrial control panels provided by certified contractors are crucial to the
successful operation of the City's sewer lift stations, water well sites, water pumping
stations, and pressure control stations.

Trimax, a Tesco Controls Company ("Contractor"), and the City of Santa Ana, a charter city and
municipal corporation organized and existing under the Constitution and laws of the State of
California ("City").
RECITALS
A. On September 10, 2021, the City issued Request for Proposal No. 21-100, by which
it sought qualified contractors to provide industrial control panel
construction/fabrication and design services, not including control panel
programming and system integration, on an as -needed basis for the Water Resource
Division of the City's Public Works Agency.
B. Contractor submitted a responsive proposal that was among those selected by the
City. Contractor represents that it is able and willing to provide the services
described in the scope of work that was included in RFP 21-100.
C. In undertaking the performance of this Agreement, Contractor represents that it is
knowledgeable in its field and that any services performed by Contractor under this
Agreement will be performed in compliance with such standards as may reasonably
be expected from a professional contracting firm in the field.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual and respective promises, and subject to the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:
1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
On an on -call basis, and at the City's sole discretion, Contractor shall perform the services
described in the scope of work that was included in RFP No. 21-100, which is attached as Exhibit
A and incorporated in full, and as further described in Contractor's Proposal, which is attached as
Exhibit B and incorporated in full.
2. COMPENSATION
a. City neither warrants nor guarantees any minimum or maximum compensation to
Contractor under this Agreement. Contractor shall be paid only for actual services
performed under this Agreement at the rates and charges identified in Exhibit C.
Contractor is one of three (3) contractors selected to provide services on an as -
needed basis under REP 21-100. The total compensation for services provided by

the Prevailing Wage Laws, and the total compensation is $1,000 or more, Contractor agrees to
fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the

independent contractor and not an employee of the City. This Agreement is not intended nor shall

List of contracts in the last three years that were terminated prior to completion
Trimax in its history, has never had a contract terminated prior to completion. Trimax is committed to delivering the
client their systems as required per the specifications and contract documents.
Project Mangement
Trimax assigns a dedicated project manager for all services provided by the company. This allows a single reliable point
of contact for the customer and provides an individual that has knowledge of all aspects of a project to ensure that the
needs of the client are always met. While there may be multiple projects and service -related activities occurring
simultaneously for a client we maintain a single project manager. That person is then best suited to evaluate the needs
of completing requirements and allocate resources in the most efficient way possible.
The project manager facilitates communications between all personnel involved on the project through weekly
meetings. This is most important when multiple projects are underway. To keep constancy in the outcome across
multiple sites the project manager makes sure that all parties are made aware of decisions made at a single location.
work includes interacting with or managing other contractors, the project manager tracks vital aspects of the project
that must integrate clearly between all parties. This requires the preparation and management of documentation
defining these interactions to make sure that requirements from all sides are specified and understood by everyone.
Strong and open communications are required between Trimax engineers and many members of the district's staff to
ensure that work performed best meets the needs of the district and operates as intended. Many times, this is achieved
through meetings and/or workshops. While this is very positive for information transfer it also creates contrasting
opinions. To mitigate this, we require one point of contact per project that is designated to make final decisions that
are not formally answered through the RFI process.
Resource Availability
Trimax has a strong group of engineers with specialties in a wide range of fields associated with PLCs, SCADA, Networks,
database & software development, and robotics. This allows for high level solutions to almost any problem. At the
same time, it also provides flexible resource support to meet demanding needs. All the engineering staff is strong in the
TRIMAX I A TESCO CONTROLS COMPANY Water and Waste Water Project Qualifications
City of Santa Ana I Statement of Qualifications Water Resources Panel Building Services 1 6
core disciplines of PLC, HMI, and SCADA. While at any given time the bandwidth of an individual may be very limited
the group is usually able to take on any requirements that come up.
Quality Assurance
Trimax believes strongly in quality assurance and has set procedures in place for many aspects of the company. Trimax
will identify the strategy and controls currently employed, and to be developed and implemented, to consistently
deliver applications and services that meet the requirements of City and their stakeholders. This approach will serve as a
map of the current controls employed by Trimax and will present a concise strategy for the continuing development
throughout the project.
Quality assurance is relevant and applicable to all operations, from the integration of Headquarters to all the remote
sites. When safety conditions exist, the Project Management may decide to bring our own Certified Safety Engineer or
obtain subcontractors who has earned the "Certified Safety Engineer" status.

UNDERSTANDING SCOPE OF SERVICES
Each project is assigned a lead engineer that is responsible for all aspects of the work. To best utilize the abilities of the
senior engineering staff Trimax has created a strong support structure including design engineers, drafters, instrument
technicians, software developers and field service technicians. The lead engineer has these resources at his/her
disposal to assist with project tasks allowing more of the engineer's time to be spent programming and commissioning
systems. The senior engineer is solely responsible for all work and documentation performed. He/she is required to
review and verify the product of all support work. The support staff allows for more efficient output from the senior
engineer and the single point of accountability makes sure that the assistance is a tool and not a crutch. The support
staff also acts as a review panel and secondary check to the senior engineer.
This structure also ensures that when multiple programmers are working on a project there is a single direction and
methodology. The senior engineer defines the breakdown of tasks and interaction between all programming before
work begins.
Trimax believes that detailed and accurate design at the beginning of a project saves far more time at the end of the
work. This design must also account for possible future needs and expansion, so the result has the flexibility to meet
ongoing requirements.
Documentation is the key to accurate design, efficient work, a successful result, and maintainability. It produces a
greater life cycle for the project.

Former Building 10 Integrated Groundwater
Remediation
Boeing Company, Long Beach, California
Trimax joins forces with Hargis + Associates as part of a multi -disciplinary team
to implement a project to remediate contaminants from spills, leaks, and chemical
releases in soil and groundwater.
In February of 2012, Trimax was contracted to design, fabricate, integrate, and provide
start-up support for a control system for the B10 Integrated Remediation System, Former
C-1 Facility, located in Long Beach, California. The remediation system consisted of seven
subsystems includinga 2,000-standard-cubic-feet-per-minute (scfm) soil vapor extraction
system with a thermal oxidizer and dry scrubber treatment, a 2,000 scfm vapor phase
granular activated carbon adsorption vapor extraction system, dual phase extraction system
using air stripping, advanced oxidation, and liquid phase carbon adsorption system, and a
groundwater extraction and treatment system with liquid phase carbon adsorption.
Trimax provided the design and fabrication of a main control panel plus three
remote 1/0 panels to control and interface with multiple groundwater extraction
wells and treatment facilities controls, in order to operate the various subsystems as
well as remove the contaminants from groundwater and vapor. The overall project
integrated two vendor -supplied control panels for treatment equipment packages,
tank level systems, blower control packages, and an advanced oxidation system
to SCADA for monitoring, trending, and control. Ignition services were installed to
communicate with PLC/HMI software Wonderware and Windows systems. For the
Ethernet/fiber network, Trimax integrated 23 extraction wells, 3 injection wells,
chemical tanks, valves, pumps and water treatment packages.
Over the past eight years, Trimax has provided ongoing field control modifications
associated with system modifications and optimization and has also provided
and integrated field instrumentation, such as Pressure, Flow, Temperature, and
Level, transmitters, switches, and gauges, along with calibration, testing, and
commissioning. Programming included various PLCs firmware updates, retro fits, logic
edits, and network communication to existing and new systems.

Trimax upgraded the PLC system comprising 10 enclosures to a new, fully -
redundant Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLC system with remote 1/0. Trimax also
replaced the existing Wonderware SCADA system with Ignition by Inductive
Automation. Because the water treatment facility was required to remain
operational, with specific treatment process downtime limited to a maximum
of four hours on any given day, Trimax installed the new control system and
SCADA in parallel with the existing systems and limited all downtime during
testing to less than four hours. Once the new system testing was complete, the
old controls were removed, and new ones installed to final physical locations.
lao Surface Water Treatment Plant Upgrades
This $21.5 million project constructed a new surface water treatment plant in
central Maui with a micro -filtration treatment process. The plant has clean -
in -place four filter trains and backwash, and a maximum capacity of 3.2 mgd.
The control system operates raw water in -feed from a local stream, filtration,
chemical dosing, chlorine generator, chlorine contact tank, 3 MG water storage
tank, and pumping into the water distribution system.
Trimax upgraded the existing control system to fully -redundant Allen-Bradley
ControlLogix processors with 12 large remote 1/0 panels, including more than
W 6001/0 system points. Trimax also implemented a new Ignition SCADA system
in a fully -redundant configuration.

2.5. Factory Acceptance Testing & Metrology Lab
This Lab is used for conducting Factory Acceptance Tests. This Lab is also used to house Test
Systems for supported customers.
2.6. On Going Support
KDC Systems is committed to supporting City of Santa Ana for the next 5 years and
beyond. Here are some additional services, which may be of value to City of Santa Ana.
2.6.1. Emergency Support
KDC Systems maintains a 24-Hour Emergency Number. We can contractually
commit to getting an engineer on -site within a specified time frame in the case of
an emergency.
2.6.2. Scheduled Service Calls
We will schedule regular service calls. The purpose of these calls is two -fold.
Firstly, we will meet with City of Santa Ana and discuss the performance of the
system. This would be the forum for raising minor / non -emergency issues. These
meetings would also be used for planning future upgrades and small maintenance
projects.
Secondly, KDC Systems would use this service call to review system logs in order to
detect emerging issues. Special attention would be paid to alarm logs. Recurring
alarms can be indicative of an emerging problem which needs attention.
Alternatively, they may indicate an alarm that needs to be tuned or
reprogrammed. KDC envisions working with City of Santa Ana to reduce the
volume of nuisance alarms generated and 'rationalize' the system alarms.
2.6.3. Software Updates / Patches
KDC Systems is also available to monitor all city software and firmware for updates.
Software Updates will be applied at regular intervals (such as quarterly). In the

Once KDC has completed all testing and verification, the same test will be repeated with
the City's Representative and results documented on City's Control Panel Testing form.
3.3. Post -Installation Field Testing
Once system installation has been successfully completed and installed, we will perform
a site acceptance test. We will test the full operation and functionality of the completed
system in the SAT with a City Representative.
Once all operation and functionality are confirmed and approved by the City Personnel
in the SAT, we will commence on -site closeout and final completion of the project.
During on -site closeout, we will review panel drawings for any redlines, changes or
corrections and make sure these are implemented and captured on the drawings. We
will make sure any non -conformances have been corrected and re -tested. We will clean
and vacuum the panel and take detailed photos after installation.
For in -office closeout we will update drawings to reflect as -built condition and provide
all records including photos and schematics to the City upon closeout of the project.

The biggest challenges on this project were the use of a third party code Library and
interfacing with multiple equipment vendors. Our engineers quickly became proficient
in the IRWD Library. Our project managers communicated constantly with the various
equipment vendors.
4.2. IRWD, Michelson Water Recycling Plant, Biosolids
and Energy Recovery
Project Size $4M (est)
Years 2017 - present
Overview
The IRWD Michelson Water Recovery Plant is being expanded to provide recycled water
for use in landscaping and irrigation.
KDC Scope

This project is still in progress. Technologies being deployed include Wonderware
System Platform, Wonderware Enterprise Historian, VMWare Virtualized Environment,
Dell Servers, Modicon PLCs, Win911. KDC Systems is maintaining a Test Bed at our
facility to support testing and debug.
4.3. Orange County Water District, Advanced Water
Treatment Facility
W
a
Project Size $15.3M
Years 2004 — present (Initial project, Phase 2 expansion & Final expansion)
Overview
The Ground Water Replenishment System (GWRS) is the world's largest advanced water
purification system for indirect potable reuse. The system takes highly treated
wastewater that would have previously been discharged into the Pacific Ocean and
purifies it. A three -step advanced treatment process is utilized. This process consists of
microfiltration, reverse osmosis and the application of ultraviolet light with hydrogen
peroxide. The process produces high -quality water that meets or exceeds all state and
federal drinking water standards
KDC Scope
DeltaV Programming (Control Strategies, Operator Stations, Historian), Design and Build
of 100+ UL-508A Control Panels and Local Operator Stations, Electrical Design,
Instrumentation, Field Calibrations, Commissioning, Testing.

Details
The core system is 8,000 10 points with an additional 7,000 points being monitored in
sub -systems. DeltaV Version 11, M Series Hardware, Delta V Historian and Win 911 were
utilized. Both Fieldbus and DeviceNet were used on these projects
Perhaps the biggest challenge in this project was the fact that the process itself was
somewhat experimental. Nobody had ever attempted to clean up effluent from a
Wastewater Facility to drinkable level on this scale before. The experimental nature of
the process resulted in the need to absorb multiple changes to the control narrative
during the course of the project.
To facilitate this collaborative effort, we conducted Design Workshops. The purpose of
these Workshops was to get input from all stakeholders and get their sign off on the
design. A custom software library was built and maintained. This library was managed
and pushed out to sub -vendors who were responsible for providing some of the sub-
systems.
The control system was built and tested off -site using a Test Platform. Rigorous testing
protocols were developed with the engineer and OCWD. Unwitnessed and witnessed
testing was conducted at our facility using the Test Platform. The thoroughly tested
code was then deployed on -site, greatly reducing startup time and issues. The same
testing was then repeated in the field on actual equipment with water to commission
the system.
Another, challenge on this project was the use of the DeltaV DCS. DeltaV is a very
powerful and highly integrated process controls technology which can be challenging to
implement. KDC Systems has mastered this technology and as a result OCWD has
repeatedly chosen to use us over the local Emerson business partner.

4.4. Los Angeles World Airports, LAX Central Utilities
Plant Upgrade
Project Size $43M
Years 2010 - 2016
Overview
KDC developed a 'Balance of Plant' control system for the new LAX Central Utilities
Plant. The Wonderware System Platform SCADA System provided visualization for the
Central Utilities Plant and also for Air Handling Units distributed throughout the airport.
Process values were captured and historized to a Wonderware Historian
KDC Scope
Our scope included all PLC and HMI programming along with the design and fabrication
of all Control Panels
Details
The heart of this system consisted of Redundant Control Logix Processors. These
controllers communicated with multiple geographically dispersed systems over
protocols including Ethernet, BACNet and Modbus.
A library was developed using Wonderware Templates and Logix Modules. Standard
Logix Modules were developed. These modules utilized User Defined Tags (UDTs) for
public interfaces. and were comprehensively documented. The SCADA system was
deployed in a VMWare Virtualized environment consisting of 3 physical servers, each
hosting 5 virtual servers with Dual Redundancy
This was a very challenging project. It is always challenging working in a fast -paced
environment like an airport. Implementation mistakes had the potential to cause severe

discomfort to the thousands of daily travelers and commercial discomfort to LAWA who
have commitments to their customer airlines.
As the 'Balance of Plant' integrator we were required to interface with multiple
equipment vendors. The airport is physically and organizationally dispersed. Every
terminal has its' own systems and service contracts which made this a very difficult
project to manage.Our schedules had to be constantly revised to ensure that specific
modules were ready and tested to coincide with changing construction and installation
schedules.
KDC Systems met our customer's requirements through careful planning and
coordination with all parties.

Selected Projects:
Orange County Water District GWRS AWTF
KDC Systems provided electrical, instrumentation and control system engineering and installation expertise
to automate the Orange County Water District Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS) in Fountain
Valley, CA. The process control system hardware and software was Emerson DeltaV with 1/0 devices by
Allen-Bradley and Phoenix Contact, and the project used specialty subvendors for the Microfiltration and
Ultraviolet Disinfection systems. The Reverse Osmosis system and balance of plant were automated by
KDC; and KDC was in the unique position of combining the other subvendor controls work to establish one
integrated control system. KDC produced about (30) main control panels, and another (70) panels for
instrumentation, local control, etc. There are around (60) DeltaV controllers for this project, many of them
redundant. KDC performed all control wire terminations and instrument calibrations.
The overall project 1/0 count of 8,000 points was substantially implemented using Foundation Fieldbus and
DeviceNet, and there were about 15,000 historized points. About half of the points were KDC's direct
responsibility, while the balance was indirectly our responsibility as overall system integrator. KDC held
workshops with the owner and developed software detailed designs, test plans, and a complete software
library which we administrated among the other subvendors. Unwitnessed and witnessed testing was
conducted at our facility, and was repeated in the field on actual equipment with water to commission the
system.
OCWD GWRS Initial Expansion
Construction of the Initial Expansion of the Groundwater Replenishment System for the Orange County Water District
(OCWD) has begun. Located at the OCWD Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF) on Ward Street in Fountain
Valley, Calif., the $142.7 million project will create an additional 31,000 acre-feet per year (AFY) of new water
supplies to serve north and central Orange County. Once completed, the AWFP's total production will reach 103,000
AFY, enough water for 850,000 people.
The project entails expansion of the existing microfiltration facility by constructing eight new below -grade treatment
basins and enlarging the existing basement facility. Other work includes construction of a new 32,000-square-foot
reverse osmosis building, the installation of five new ultraviolet light (UV) treatment trains to match the existing
systems, as well as retrofitting the existing post treatment systems to employ a new lime feed system. McCarthy will
also construct two above ground steel tanks, each is 215 feet in diameter with a height of 35 feet and a capacity to
hold 7.5 million gallons of water.
