• Any damage to pole /lamp; improvements to the pole /lamp to mitigate damage and date of improvement (where possible) • Pole height, mast arm length • Pole type (e.g, street light only, utility distribution, traffic signal, mast arm — including single /double and length, decorative, etc.) • Pole material (e.g. wood, metal, concrete, fiberglass) • Street name • Physical attributes and /or issues — such as paint color, electrical hazards, open hand holes, graffiti, tree obstructions, etc. Unlike other potential providers, Tanko Lighting is an industry expert focused solely on street lighting. Tanko Lighting has built its own in -house data team with the right blend of both street lighting technical expertise and data analysis skills to collect and reconcile accurate project data. Further, Tanko Lighting's field auditors have accurately collected data thousands of street light fixtures nationwide — ensuring that the City's audit will be conducted by highly qualified professionals with tremendous experience. This renders Tanko Lighting as the most qualified to perform the GIS audit, as its staff is extremely experienced in the nuances and characteristics of all street light installations. Drawing from these expertise, Tanko Lighting's auditors will collect and transmit data points daily, using GPS devices. Tanko Lighting will compile data weekly to provide the City with a Weekly Audit Report (see Appendix B for a sample report), which will enable the City to identify and address (or request SCE to address) any immediate safety concerns, as well as other issues — such as tree trimming — that may need attention prior to any future LED installation or maintenance phase. Once the on -site data is obtained (and cross - referenced with any other available system data via the Data Reconciliation Task below), Tanko Lighting will compile and provide this complete data to the City in an electronic Geographic Information System (GIS) file in the City's choice of either a shape file format, geodatabase and/or Excel file format with latitude /longitude coordinates at the conclusion of the project. Task 2: Data Reconciliation Simultaneously with the GIS audit, Tanko Lighting will conduct a thorough and detailed investigation of any available City and /or SCE records, including billing records and maps. Depending on the available data, Tanko Lighting will reconcile these records with the data from the citywide GIS audit to confirm such aspects as ownership and billing record accuracy. In Tanko Lighting's experience, cross referencing these various data sources results in extremely precise and clean data. Task 3: Pole Sampling Tanko Lighting will develop a representative sample of types of poles to form the basis of the final RCNLD study. Task 4: Accompany SCE (Sampling) Tanko Lighting will accompany SCE during its final survey and study of the street light system to ensure that a fair representative sample is used and that all parties agree on the facts associated with the initial SCE valuation. Task 5: Assess Cut -Over Costs Tanko Lighting will assess cut -over costs from the SCE system, including fees and physical cut -over requirements (i.e. id tags, lockouts, fuse kits, etc.). Tanko Lighting will use its extensive technical knowledge to ensure that any cut -over costs are equitable for the City. Task 6. Identify OverlUnder -Lit Areas At the City's option, Tanko Lighting will identify any over -lit areas of the City and recommend street light installations /removals based on minimum safe night -time lighting standards. In the event of any areas that are over -lit, Tanko Lighting will provide options for relocating fixtures in these areas to potentially under -lit areas (depending on relevant construction characteristics — such as pole type, etc.). Additionally, in areas that are under -lit, Tanko Lighting will present options for what could cost - effectively be achieved to address efficiency and light output needs. This will ensure that the City does not endure unnecessary costs. Tanko Lighting Statement of Qualifications — City of Santa Ana — RFP #15 -g53 Page 18 of 26 25N -14
