They are: <br />1. Engage clients early and often; listen first <br />a. Enterprise Automation identifies client needs first, before executing <br />engineering tasks <br />2. Planning always precedes execution <br />a. We develop a project schedule and detailed task execution plans for <br />deliverables upfront and review designs before starting work <br />3. Client approval of design documentation is required before implementation <br />(including functional specifications, SCADA standards specifications, <br />network drawings, etc.) <br />4. Our QA/QC policy is summarized by our mandate "Nothing Leaves <br />Enterprise Untested" <br />a. We document all code and hold each other accountable <br />b. All documents/programs are internally peer reviewed before internal <br />or external turnover (e.g. desk checks) <br />c. We test and commission only against client approved specifications <br />d. We strongly encourage witnessed FATs for all projects <br />e. Completion of commissioning must be. demonstrated to our client for <br />sign-off/approval during a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) <br />7.2.1 Analysis before design <br />At the onset of every project, the EA project team executes a detailed existing site <br />and design analysis where all available documentation is reviewed, site surveys <br />are completed, and if necessary, interviews with city personnel are conducted, to <br />ensure we have a thorough understanding of the current and proposed designs <br />before proceeding. <br />Workshops play a key role in this at as they ensure that all stakeholder are <br />clearly aligned and have unified goals, action items, and deliverables. Workshops <br />can be scheduled before a design starts to clearly define the goals, mid design to <br />review progress and ensure that progress meets the client's expectations, and after <br />completion of the design to identify errors before implementation commences. <br />For the project proposed by the City in RFP 17.112, EA expects to utilize several <br />workshops at all stages during the development of the scoped deliverables. <br />Client: City of Santa Ana Revision: 1.0.0 <br />Document: Response to RFP 17-112 Date: 1 112 112 017 <br />Section: Scope of Services & Schedule Pa a Number 11 of 31 <br />25E-23 <br />
