Phasing Approach <br />Athens Services has a very good understanding of the scope of the work because we have carefully <br />reviewed all the City's RFP materials thoroughly; have conducted a physical review of all the streets; <br />have entered all of this information into our routing data base; and can ensure the City that we will <br />comply with the sweeping schedule as described in the RFP. <br />At a minimum, Athens Services will furnish all labor, equipment, materials, and supervision to <br />perform maintenance as described in the City's RFP, including, but not limited to, using a modern <br />mechanical or vacuum street sweeper, thoroughly sweep each improved street, alley, public parking <br />lot in the City on a frequency as specified in the scope of work and dispose of collected debris in a <br />legal manner. <br />Athens fully accepts that the sweeping operations in the City of Santa Ana shall be implemented <br />utilizing a phased approach in which contract staff will assume incremental responsibility of <br />sweeping areas of the City. We understand that each phase will be implemented in three-month <br />sequences or as determined appropriate by the City based on our performance. We have no doubts <br />that we can complete the full sweeping program implementation within nine-months from the award <br />of the contract. We also understand and accept that City staff has the right to modify, reduce or <br />delete the amount of sweeping, schedules, routes, frequency, phases, standards and days of sweeping <br />with prior notice. <br />The transition "hand-off" from one street sweeper to another street <br />sweeper is a concern for most cities. We understand this concern and <br />we also know how to get it done effectively. The transition process <br />requires excellent planning, great communication, and a contractor like <br />Athens that has the resources, commitment, and knowledge to make a <br />seamless transition. <br />No other company has more experience in implementing different types of transition situations than <br />does Athens Services. Listed below are just a few examples of each of the many types of transitions <br />with which we have experience. <br />From municipal street sweeper to Athens Services <br />• Azusa* <br />• Glendora <br />• Irwindale <br />25H-87
