rLIA INNOVATIVE AND SUCCESSFUL APPRW <br />The NV5 team focuses on providing safe, cost-effective, reliable and sustainable improvements using <br />innovative design and contracting techniques that meet the needs of the taxpayers, meet or exceed the <br />minimum standards based on design improvements, and minimize impacts to adjacent properties and <br />vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Our experienced engineering staff provides lower -cost or lower -impact <br />alternatives in order to develop the least disruptive and least expensive designs. <br />One such example of our use of innovative techniques <br />can be seen in our work on the design of the Industrial <br />Way Storm Drain and Drainage Improvements project <br />for the City of Costa Mesa. <br />The project included design of a drainage system to <br />alleviate the flooding in the area. The existing 48- <br />inch storm drain pipe in the street (Industrial Way) <br />was not capable of handling the storm flood in its <br />current condition. We studied different design options <br />and performed hydrology and hydraulic analyses for <br />various alternatives. We designed a system that would <br />limit the flow into the existing storm drain system. <br />In addition, we designed an underground detention <br />system consisting of three (3) rows of 12-inch <br />perforated corrugated metal pipes within the available <br />portion of the adjacent field. The new drainage system <br />solved the flooding problem in the area and saved the City Public Works Department a substantial amount of <br />money. The City did not experience any flooding in the project area in the past heavy rain season. <br />Our team utilizes the latest in civil engineering design and analysis software to facilitate timely, efficient and <br />innovative engineering design solutions for our clients. <br />Our team also provides constructability and value engineering review of projects during design, utilizing our <br />extensive construction phase experience. <br />QUALITY ASSURANCE/CONTROL <br />NV5's approach to Quality Management is founded on our basic philosophy that quality is one of our core <br />values. Each team member takes great pride that we have established and maintained a reputation as an <br />organization with high standards. NV5's philosophy for providing quality is ingrained in each employee, as they <br />are expected to deliver the highest quality service and product to our clients. <br />NV5 has a longstanding commitment to the formalized process of Quality Control (doing it right the first time) <br />and Quality Assurance (verifying that the Quality Control was done correctly). NV5 is committed to providing a <br />service to our clients that fulfills or exceeds the project requirements. NV5's team members take pride in their <br />reputation for creative, thoughtful and successful engineering planning and design. <br />Quality Control will be provided by Carmen Kasner, PE. Ms. Kasner has more than 28 years of experience <br />in public works, focusing on the design and management of water and wastewater systems. She will create <br />a plan tailored to meet your project criteria, such as completion date, budget, note keeping, forms, mapping <br />format, digital format, safety concerns, environmental issues, permits, rights of entry, methods of access and <br />travel, and final product. <br />On the following page is our standard practice to assure projects are delivered on time and error -free. <br />
