r <br />September i9, 2011 <br />Mr. Raul Godinez II, P.E. <br />Executive Director, Public Works Agency <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza <br />Santa Ana, CA 92702 <br />Subject: Proposal to Provide Professional Engineering Services <br />Dear Mr. Godinez: <br />Interwest Consulting Group is pleased to submit our proposal to provide professional engineering <br />services to assist the City of Santa Ana's Public Works Agency's Engineering Services section per your <br />letter dated September 12, 2011. Interwest Consul#ing Group is a municipal consulting firm specializing <br />in providing engineering services to public agencies throughout California. Interwest Consulting Group <br />only serves public agency clients, typically in a staff augmentation and program management role. We <br />believe this commitment is important to prevent any real or perceived conflict of interest issues for our <br />public agency clients. <br />Currently, we serve over 70 California public agencies providing the following services: <br />? City and Traffic Engineering <br />? Capital Improvement Program Management <br />? Development Improvement Plan/Map Review and Entitlement <br />? Transportation Planning and Policy Development <br />? Neighborhood Traffic Management <br />? Transportation Program Management and Funding Assistance <br />? Real Property Acquisition <br />? Construction Management and Inspection <br />? Building and Safety <br />? Geographic Information System Development and Implementation <br />We understand municipal challenges and requirements because we've done the same work as public <br />employees. Many of our staff have held senior and executive management positions within public <br />agencies- Our staff includes five former Public Works Directors/City Engineers, four former City Traffic <br />Engineers, and six former Chief Building Officials. <br />We believe this background and experience is important since serving in the capacity of the "owner," <br />especially a municipal agency with locally elected public officials, requires a high level of sensitivity <br />towards community and special interest group issues. Accordingly, our professional staff truly <br />understands and values the importance of maintaining a focus on representing the interests ?f <br />community stakeholders in a manner which reflects positively on the agencies we serve. <br />15061 SPRINGDALE STREET, SUITE 205 • HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA 92649 <br />rEt.717.899.9039 • F2,x.714.899.9I46 • www_interwes[grp.com
