MI&C ntaAnaorks Agency 21 036`—'Sewer System Repair Services UNDERSTANDING SCOPE OF SERVICES The Request for Proposals section on Scope of Work provides a comprehensive list of tasks expected for this contract. The purpose of the contract is to provide the City of Santa Ana with an on -call contractor capable of performing routine sewer repair and rehabilitation services on an as -needed basis. Although the Scope of Work states "This is a routine non -emergency rehabilitation and repair services contract", the end of the section (page 16 of 35) states "EMERGENCY CALL -OUT This item of work will be used in emergency situations...". It would appear that the main purpose of this contract is not for "emergency work" per se, but we understand that ANY sewer leak or break would constitute a need for immediate response. The contract allows for 24-hour response but W.A. Rasic routinely contracts with agencies and municipalities with a two (2) hour response window. We would similarly commit, regardless of contract 24-hour requirement, to provide immediate response services to mitigate any main break, etc. as environmental and safety concerns must be immediately addressed. The scope of services for the bid portion of the work is outlined on the next few sheets. The work as bid generally involves repair and rehabilitation to standard sewer facilities, including gravity main lines, manholes, services, cleanouts, and repairs to streets, sidewalks, and other facilities. The work would be by conventional trenching, bursting, and lining techniques. Work may also involve raising manholes to -grade, concrete structural repairs, and related tasks. GENERAL METHOD FOR ACCOMPLISHMENT OF WORK W. A. Rasic Construction is a contractor that self -performs a majority of the work elements on a contract such as this. With a diverse team of highly skilled professionals and large fleet of company owned equipment, we would typically perform 95% of all work "in house". This contract will require a number of crews specializing in different aspects of the project. With the preliminary description of the work we would generally utilize these different types of crews: mainline pipe repair, appurtenances, asphalt paving, concrete structures, and lining/rehabilitation. Work outside of our expertise would be subcontracted to carefully selected companies. For this project the following elements of work would most likely be subcontracted to qualified companies: • Large area street paving (non -trench patch paving) • Sawcutting • HDPE certified fusion technicians • Lining and Top -Hat Services The sewer main repair is standard and one of W.A. Rasic's demonstrated strengths. The general sequence of operations for this work would be as follows: 1) Emergency Underground Service Alert Notification 2) BMP Installation U 3) Potholing ��A 1
