Ms. Souri Amirani May 22, 2008 Page 2 Consider why the Psomas Team is the best choice for this assignment: Cost -Conscious Design. The Psomas Team recognizes the value and need for cost -sensitive design solutions. For a recent City of Downey pavement reconstruction project, we conducted value engineering of materials recommendations on our own initiative, and developed alternative solutions that resulted in direct cost savings to the City in excess of $300,000. Experienced Project JVanager. Tom Herbel, P.E., will direct the Psomas Team as Project Manager. Tom has more than 18 years of experience in civil engineering for a variety of civic project types, including municipal streets and roads, parks, and site development projects. He has managed such projects for cities throughout Orange County. He will manage your project with little guidance, working as an extension of City staff, which translates directly in conserving the City's time and resources. Understanding multi- discipline issues, Tom will serve the City by integrating a variety of professionals to undertake the City's proposed diverse assignments. Tom has precisely the background and current experience that is needed for your projects. QA/QC. Psomas is dedicated to technical excellence and professional quality, which is implemented through a proactive QA/QC program on our projects. Quality is a company -wide commitment. The lack of design - related change orders on our projects demonstrates the success of our program. Proven .Record. The Psomas Team offers the City an experienced team of professionals with proven records in providing design services for roadway rehabilitation and reconstruction projects and park facilities for cities and in meeting project budget and schedule constraints. Our Team's successful work together on relevant projects will provide the additional benefits of established working relationships and good communications. The Psomas Team will "hit the ground running!" Local Sensitivity. Much of our work has been performed for public agencies, and we understand the special concerns of municipal public works departments such as yours. We are sensitive to community impacts, and recognize the need for preparing biddable, constructible plan packages. Rules, for Proposals. Psomas declares that the only person, persons, company or parties interested in the proposal as principals, are named therein; that the proposal is made without collusion with any other person, persons, company, or parties submitting a proposal; that it is in all respects fair and in good faith without collusion or fraud, and that the signer of the proposal has full authority to bind the principal proposal. Psomas' services and staffing for the projects will be provided through its Costa Mesa office, which is easily accessible to the City of Santa Ana and the project sites. We believe the Psomas Team provides the right combination of experienced staff, project understanding, and local knowledge to successfully undertake this contract for the City of Santa Ana.
