ICF will conduct an in-depth analysis of the City's existing training programs and resources to provide robust recommendations on workforce development. This analysis will include an assessment of the current knowledge and skill levels of the staff and an evaluation of the training curriculum to identify gaps in knowledge and skills that need to be addressed. To ensure that staff are well -prepared to maintain, service, and repair zero -emission vehicles and infrastructure, ICF will make targeted recommendations based on this analysis. To further support the City's workforce development, ICF will also provide a comprehensive estimate of labor hours for common vehicle repair tasks by zero -emission vehicle type. This analysis will help the City to plan for staffing levels and allocate resources effectively. We will also provide a comprehensive labor cost analysis for the repair and maintenance of electric fleets. The analysis will start with a comparation in vehicle equivalency units between zero -emission and fossil fuel vehicles by vehicle type. By understanding the differences in maintenance requirements between these two types of vehicles, the City can accurately plan for the staffing needs and labor hours to maintain a zero -emission fleet and infrastructure. In addition, ICF will also elaborate the steps that the City can take to prepare its workforce for transition to EV. This could include taking advantage of trainings from the manufacturers and station suppliers, including maintenance and operations training, station operations and fueling safety, first responder training and other trainings that may be offered by the technology providers. In addition, the project team will assist the City to review current city job specifications for Fleet Maintenance, identify opportunities for ZEV maintenance, and make recommendations to address the opportunities. Finally, ICF will provide a detailed cost breakdown for the workforce development recommendations, including training, staffing, and any necessary resources. This cost breakdown will be developed to enable the City to make informed decisions regarding the allocation of resources. Task 5 Deliverables • A memo summarizing recommendations for Fleet Maintenance workforce development and staffing levels Task 6: Fleet Electrification and Vehicle Charging Master Plan Following the completion of all tasks, ICF will compile the findings and develop a draft Fleet Electrification and Vehicle > FLEET NAME Charging Master Plan for the City. This draft plan will Executive Summary encompass all analyses from the previous tasks, including an executive summary, EV replacement schedule, recommendations for charging infrastructure development, total cost of ownership, and emission benefits analysis. Additionally, the plan will cover budgeting needs, vehicle-- replacement/procurement policies, workforce and staffing levelrecommendations, and and all other strategies and recommendations for 2,_._ infrastructure development, operation, and maintenance developed throughout the previous tasks. The plan will also identify opportunities and constraints related to EV charging infrastructure development, providing practical recommendations for the City to consider. ICF will submit the draft Plan to the City for review and feedback by Feb 28, 2025, and then subsequently revise and submit a final Plan for approval by Mar 31, 2024. Both the draft and the final report will be sent electronically in Microsoft Word (*.doc or *.docx) format. ICF will also help the City to develop a PowerPoint presentation to summarize key findings and outcomes of the final Master Plan, which the City staff to easily adapt as needed to communicate and brief regional stakeholders on the project. Task 6 Deliverables • A draft Fleet Electrification and Vehicle Charging Master Plan • A final Master Plan, incorporating feedback from City staff and relevant stakeholders • A PowerPoint Presentation accompanying the Master Plan 17
