Nguyen, P.E. <br />Subject: PAVER to StreetSaver Conversion <br />Dear Mr. Nguyen: <br />Thank you for meeting with NCE on February 811, 2017. Based on our discussions, NCE understands that the City <br />wishes to convert Its PAVER database to the StreetSaver" pavement management program. In order to facilitate <br />this process, there are various processes that need to be performed, including parameters that need to be set up. <br />These are described in the following paragraphs. <br />SCOPE OF WORK <br />Based on the above understanding of the City's needs and objectives, the following tasks describe our Scope of <br />Work. <br />TASK 1— CONVERT PAVER DATABASE TO STREETSAVER` <br />NCE has. worked with almost 20 similar conversions in Southern California within the past three years, and of <br />those, I have personally been involved with at least 15. These include the Cities of Anaheim, Mission Viejo, Buena <br />Park, Dana Point, Lake Forest, EI Centro, EI Cajon and the Counties of Orange and San Diego, to name a few. <br />For any conversion, cities and counties will have unique questions on their database. Typical questions that will <br />need to be addressed are shown below. <br />1. <br />.1 What functional classifications should be used? FHWA definitions? <br />How much of historical inspection records history should/needs to be converted? <br />'. Are there maintenance treatments that should be added? <br />®° Should street management sections be redefined to better reflect current policies or practices? <br />U Are the surface types correct? Lengths? Widths? <br />Q What happens if PAVER does not have all the data needed for conversion such as construction dates? Are <br />there alternatives? <br />Therefore, NCE will first meet with the City to define areas of concern and identify solutions as needed. Note that <br />It may not always be necessary to convert all the historical records, particularly if there are questions as to Its <br />validity. As a minimum, however, NCE recommends the inventory be converted to StreetSaver*"'. <br />Fountain valley, CA <br />9550 Warner Ave., Suite 370 <br />Fountain Valley, CA 92708 <br />(714) 848-8897 <br />
