At EA, specifications provide the reader with a detailed and methodical description of how the system or component will look, feel, and operate. They are developed in close collaboration with our client and all relevant stakeholders to ensure thoroughness, completeness, and accuracy. Functional specifications require an acute attention to detail as they serve four vital roles: 1. They facilitate alignment between stakeholders before configuration begins 2. They provide a set of guidelines and constraints, which helps engineers plan properly and avoid cost over runs by letting them know when they can consider configuration complete 3. They act as compliance tools, which are incorporated into internal, FAT, and SAT documentation 4. They are utilized as training and on-site, troubleshooting tools Refer to Volume 11, Appendix E: Example Technical Documentation for a sample of one of our functional specifications. 7.2.3 Panel and electrical design Panel designs start with the development of a site's functional specification. A complete functional "specification should make it easy for an engineer to identify and list the required I0, equipment, and communications channels. Those requirements along with the spatial, power, and heat dissipation requirements form the components form the basis of the panel design. Where possible, EA develops panel design standards to reduce future design, maintenance, and training costs. These standards include: terminal block layouts, power supply sizing, component placement, and protective device sizing and usage. 7.2.4 Testing Our seventh core value is 'Notbing Leaves Enterprise Untested". We believe that testing standards and processes are what separates a good integrator from a great integrator. Our testing processes play a key role in our ability to proudly claim that we deliver "World Class Startups" to our clients. To develop test procedures for a project, we start with the functional specification. We test every 110 point from field to SCADA screen, every feature from redundancy to security, and all.process control subroutines. Outside of the specified features, we also test for anomalies and attempt to conceive every way Client: City of Santa Ana Revision: 1.0.0 Document: Response to RFP 17-112 Date: 11/21/2017 Section: Scope of Services & Schedule Pae Number 12 of 31 25E-24
