On -Cali Right -of -Way Specialty Services (AS) fzight of Way program Management Services APPROACH & METHODOLOGY Our primary approach is to serve as a direct extension (i.e. surrogate staff) of the City of Santa Ana Public Works Department (City) staff, Our approach is based on strong commitment to total quality assurance and follows a proven path of work elements and tasks to ensure a successful project. Working together with the City Project Manager, APA's Project Manager, Ms, Souri Amirani PE, Broker, will lead the project team. Work Breakdown Structure At the onset of this project, the Project Manager will meet with team members to review the requirements, prepare a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), and make team assignments for maximum efficiency of resources. The detailed WBS will communicate the scope of work, constraints, and technical requirements to all project participants. The WBS shall identify the procedures and technical requirements that are to be followed in developing deliverables. The WBS also describes the responsibilities of each participant in the project. Work Breakdown Structure for Team Assignments Scope or Work Project Goals Technical Requirements Master Project Schedule Work Progress Monitoring Milestones Identified Plan and Report Review __.. i.. Early CWlaboretien Dreg Deliverables Accurate Documentation A Master Project Schedule will be prepared following the WBS showing the relationship between tasks and the expected start date and Quality Deliverables Produced On Time and Within Budget duration for each item. This schedule will serve as the guide to conducting and monitoring the progress of the work, and to ensure projects are completed on time and within budget. To ensure accurate monitoring and tracking of documents, revisions and progress, a document tracking and control system will be developed. To facilitate the review and approval process, we will work closely with the key individuals at the City who are responsible for the review of specific elements of the project and will submit draft copies of significant work items before the milestone submittal dates. This will give tts a clear understanding of what the reviewers expect, and they will have a preview of what will be submitted before the actual submittal is made. Our past experience working on projects with cities has taught us the importance of maintaining accurate and detailed meeting minutes, decision logs, and action item lists during the project development process. Quality Assurance /Quality Control APA recognizes that a successful project must start with a clear project understanding and knowledge of the City's standards and requirements. Quality control is embedded within our employees and is most effective when practiced continuously throughout the design and construction process. This is a characteristic that is valued and rewarded within our team and will provide the City with a properly designed and constructed project that we expect to exceed its required service life. During the design process, APA has a time tested and proven Quality Control Plan (QCP) that is used for every design project. The QCP describes the project quality process that shall be followed during the development of the design documents, and other project deliverables. APA will prepare and submit to the City a copy within 30 calendar days of notice to proceed. The QCP outline, in general, is as follows: Page 114
