City of • • Ana <br /> Willdan provides all administrative, professional, and other technical resources necessary to review <br /> designs for completeness and correctness without the need for subconsultants. <br /> In our communication process, we can transmit rough drafts of our comments back to the City for review <br /> prior to the preparation of final copies. This gives the City staff the prerogative of changing, modifying, <br /> or adding any comments they desire. Following approval of draft comments, final copies are printed on <br /> an agency letterhead, or as otherwise directed, and forwarded to the applicant and/or returned to the <br /> City. This process assures local input and knowledge of the content of corrections and produces <br /> continuity between the jurisdiction and the consultant. Plan reviewers will be available to discuss and <br /> clarify plan check issues with the City staff, designers, owners, and contractors. Willdan will utilize <br /> Bluebeam software for plan review. The electronic format provides efficiency in the distribution and <br /> recordation of plan review comments and responses. Mylar plans ready for approval by the City <br /> Engineer will be initialed, and a letter will be provided stating that the design is in substantial compliance <br /> with the applicable local, state, and federal requirements. <br /> Deliverables to the client and applicant for a typical plan check will include electronic delivery of <br /> reviewed plans and documents and a corresponding plan review comment letter. For projects <br /> containing the review of multiple documents, the plan review comments will be consolidated into one <br /> comprehensive comment letter. <br /> Throughout the plan check process, Willdan will be available to meet with City Staff and/or the <br /> developers' consultant with 48 hours advance notice. Willdan will tailor our in-house checklists to meet <br /> the City requirements. We routinely utilize check lists to track the completion of the various plan check <br /> requirements. They promote consistency in reviews and can be used in-house only or distributed to <br /> the City and applicant as directed. <br /> Electronic Plan Review <br /> Willdan has been providing plan review services electronically for over 17 years. The Geocivix <br /> electronic plan review process is a web-based program utilizing software that enables a plan reviewer <br /> to insert annotations (comments)on plans and create issues (comments)within a Ietterformat. Services <br /> are provided at the request of the applicant or the agency we serve. Submittals can be accepted either <br /> in hard copy, whereby Willdan converts the plans to r r <br /> electronic format, or electronic copy in a PDF or TIF format. <br /> Willdan will review plans and can transmit the electronic <br /> redlined plans back to the applicant or the City as directed, <br /> in either electronic or hard-copy format. The reviewers can _. <br /> create a comment letter with links to the electronic project <br /> pages under review. All administrative tools are provided ` # <br /> for correspondence, tracking, stepping through stages, "' _. "Nom.;= <br /> and administering all access privileges. This service allows <br /> for collaboration between the City, designer, and plans examiner to facilitate a complete understanding <br /> of plan review comments and can reduce shipping, printing, and time for the plan review. <br /> We understand that the City currently uses Project Doxx as their electronic plan review platform. Willdan <br /> has worked with many different platforms such as LMS, TRAKiT and Energov and found the learning <br /> curve to be minimal for each one as they are similar. Willdan can both work directly within the City's <br /> current system or augment with Willdan's developed platform based on the City's preference. <br /> Willdan will utilize electronic plan reviews to help streamline the review process via the use of Bluebeam. <br /> Multidiscipline reviews can utilize a Bluebeam Studio Session. These sessions allow all reviewers <br /> to markup the plan set as one cohesive team. All comments are seen by the whole team allowing <br /> immediate input and feedback between disciplines as if they are marking up the plans over the <br /> same table. Several of our clients use permit tracking software such as LMS, TRAKiT or Energov and <br /> we are proficient in the use of those software platforms as well. We will coordinate our review services <br /> with the City's permit tracking system. <br /> City Council 15 —26 Proposal or un-Lall PTMIM <br /> ervices 10 <br />
