We value the relationship we have built with the City of Santa Ana through our past and currently <br />ongoing projects. We are committed to providing the City with the same consistent, diligent, high -quality <br />service that you expect and deserve, and have seen from Tetra Tech. Our project team is the right team to <br />provide these On -Call Services for the following reasons: <br />Proven Expertise: Tetra Tech has been providing similar on -call engineering services for more than 35 clients in <br />Southern California. Many of these clients are repeat clients as Tetra Tech has provided service and innovative <br />solutions on -time and within budget. Our reputation as a leader in consulting engineering is validated by Top 10 <br />ratings annually by Engineering News -Record. Tetra Tech consistently ranks among the top engineering firms. In <br />2022, Tetra Tech was rated No. 4 among the top 500 Design Finns nationwide. <br />Extensive City WaterlWastewater Design Experience: Members of our project team have completed more than <br />47 water/wastewater projects for the City since 1999. Our project team knows the City s design requirements and <br />standards, preferred materials, and operational preferences which will allow us to complete designs in the most <br />cost-effective manner. <br />Local Staffing and In-house Capabilities: We are proud to be embedded with the local fabric of a community in <br />which we live, work, and play. Although we can draw from a large pool of nationwide resources, our Irvine office <br />has experienced staff ready to mobilize at a moment's notice to meet the City's needs. Tetra Tech can best serve <br />the City on this on -call due to our ability to provide most of the key disciplines and services in-house, leading to an <br />efficient and well -coordinated set of construction documents. We can self -perform the project planning, feasibility <br />studies, surveying, environmental documentation, permitting, project design, bid support, construction support, and <br />post -construction support tasks with top-notch professionals that have built expertise in civil works projects, City <br />facilities, parks, and other related projects. This brings consistency and the ability to execute with no learning curve. <br />Dedication to the City: We believe our past 23-year relationship with the City shows our commitment to providing <br />the City with high -quality service. We have been awarded repeat work with the City due to our quality and <br />responsiveness as well as the trust formed with the City staff. <br />We assure you that the expertise, responsiveness, attention to detail, and commitment demonstrated on our <br />previous work will be fully applied to this work.
