with a 10 percent contingency of $235,758, for a total amount not to exceed $2,593,334

for a one-year term beginning July 20, 2021 and expiring July 19, 2022, with options for

DISCUSSION
The School Crossing Guard Services Program (Program) serves three school districts,
which includes 35 schools, and dispatches approximately 50 crossing guards throughout
the City. During 2020, the Program was reduced due to a decrease in student traffic. It
will return to full service in FY 2021-2022 as schools re -open for in -person instruction.
The Program was recently transferred to the Public Works Agency, and in November
2020, Public Works issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for school crossing guard
services (Exhibit 1). Five vendors submitted proposals, which were evaluated by a rating
panel and ranked based on the criteria included in the RFP. The results are summarized
below.

The proposal submitted by All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS) is ranked highest,
is responsive to the criteria, and meets the City's requirements. ACMS has provided
crossing guard services to the City of Santa Ana since 2013 and has a proven record of
professional, consistent service provision. As such, staff recommends awarding the
agreement to ACMS (Exhibit 2).
This item was first presented to the City Council on June 15, 2021 and included a three-
year term with two, one-year extensions. The City Council directed staff to look at
alternative short-term flexible contract options which would allow the City to work with the
surrounding school districts to jointly fund the School Crossing Guard Program. As
funding becomes available from the school districts, the cost of this program would be
partially paid for by the City and the School Districts.
Staff proposes two options. Option 1: a one-year term with one, one-year extension for a
total amount not to exceed $2,593,334. Option 2: a one year term with four, one-year
extensions for a total amount not to exceed $6,869,996. Due to the importance of
providing crossing guard services to Santa Ana school children, staff recommends option
two as it allows the crossing guard contract to proceed and service to commence at the
start of the upcoming school year while funding issues are resolved. In the event
coordination with the school districts extends past the upcoming school year, option two
provides a longer, flexible contract that has an optional renewal every year and can be
terminated anytime with a 30-day notice to the provider.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The FY21-22 General Fund budget includes $820,980 for the School Crossing Guard
Services Program. The proposed contract exceeds budgeted funding. To make up the
$466,626 funding shortfall for FY21-22, staff will request a carryforward of any unspent
FY20-21 appropriations and re -assess the budget at Mid -year. Beginning in FY22-23,
the General Fund budget for this contract will need to increase by $0.5 million to maintain

the increased in cost for providing the service. If services are reduced due to lack of
funding, rates will need to be renegotiated as there are significant fixed costs.

of Los Angeles. Santa Ana covers 27.2 square miles and is the most populous city in Orange
County with approximately 340,000 residents. The City of Santa Ana is the County Seat of
Orange County, which can lead to an increase in the daytime population by approximately
50% during normal business hours. Santa Ana is bordered by the cities of Orange, Tustin,
Garden Grove, Irvine and Costa Mesa. Santa Ana has a diverse population comprised of 73%
Hispanic, 12.4% White, 8.7% Asian, 1.3% Black, and 0.3% American Indian, and Eskimo.

hours providing crossing guard services to the children of our community. Data for the 2019-
2020 and 2020-2021 school year are not provided due to the COVID pandemic which disrupted

Works Agency. All City Management Services also oversees the recruitment, training, and
management of all crossing guards, as well as their placement at locations as requested by the

RECITALS
A. On November 24, 2020, the City issued Request for Proposal No. 20-149, by which

knowledgeable in its field and that any services performed by Contractor under this
Agreement will be performed in compliance with such standards as may reasonably
be expected from a professional contracting firm in the field.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual and respective promises, and subject to the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

City.
8. INDEMNIFICATION

SCOPE OF SERVICES & CROSSING GUARD LOCATIONS
I. INTRODUCTION
The City of Santa Ana, California is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to provide adult
crossing guard services to aide primarily school children of our community as they walk to and
from school. The out -sourced crossing guard program will include recruitment, training,
coordination, and management of the entire Adult Crossing Guard Program. The crossing
guard program will be conducted in the City of Santa Ana at the locations identified in Table
A shown in the Appendix Attachment 1, Section VII (page 6 of 8).
The City of Santa Ana intends to award a contract for a minimum term of three (3) years with
an option to extend the contract one additional two—year term. It is anticipated that this new
contract will commence on July 1, 2021.
II. BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Ana is located in central Orange County approximately 30 miles southeast
of Los Angeles. Santa Ana covers 27.2 square miles and is the most populous city in Orange
County with approximately 340,000 residents. The City of Santa Ana is the County Seat of
Orange County, which can lead to an increase in the daytime population by approximately
50% during normal business hours. Santa Ana is bordered by the cities of Orange, Tustin,
Garden Grove, Irvine and Costa Mesa. Santa Ana has a diverse population comprised of 73%
Hispanic, 12.4% White, 8.7% Asian, 1.3% Black, and 0.3% American Indian, and Eskimo.
There are approximately 54,000 students of all ages currently enrolled in schools throughout
the City. The City of Santa Ana has a mild climate with an average annual temperature of 75
degrees, and an average annual rainfall of 13.7 inches.
Crossing guard locations are strategically positioned near schools located within the Santa Ana
Unified School District, the Garden Grove Unified School District and the Orange Unified
School District. During the 2018--2019 school year, crossing guards worked a total of 47,325
hours providing crossing guard services to the children of our community. Data for the 2019-
2020 and 2020-2021 school year are not provided due to the COVID pandemic which disrupted
normal walking and pedestrian activity in March 2020 through the publication date of this
RFP.
All City Management Services currently manages the Adult Crossing Guard Program which
consists of 52 crossing guards who provide crossing guard services to 70 locations within the
city limits, which are listed in Table A. Oversight was being provided by the Santa Ana Police
Department, however in the summer 2020, program oversight was transferred to the Public
Works Agency. All City Management Services also oversees the recruitment, training, and
management of all crossing guards, as well as their placement at locations as requested by the
City. This will be the responsibility of the successful proposer.

Crossing Guard Services RFP No. 20-149
20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701
Dear Mr. Kekula
On behalf of All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), I would like to express our sincere
appreciation for the potential opportunity to continue to serve the City of Santa Ana Crossing Guard
program. We are proud to have served the community of Santa Ana for the past sixteen (16) years.
We have received the Request for Proposal, we have reviewed all RFP requirements,
Specifications, Scope of Work, Standard Agreement and Addendums. We agree with the terms and
conditions set forth with thee exception of Standard Agreement Item 7a — Insurance, Item -8
Indemnification and Addendum One regarding Price Adjustments.
Item 7a — requires General Liability combined single limit coverage of not less than $10,000,000 per
occurrence. Our current insurance coverage provides combined single limit coverage of not less
than $5,000,000 per occurrence. We would hope to avoid any additional expense to the City and
would request the limit to be lowered to $5,000,000 per occurrence. If the limit cannot be lowered,
we would need to secure additional coverage. We have included this optional pricing exhibit via
optional program pricing. Please see our pricing exhibits. Item 8 pertains to Indemnification and we
would request a modification to the language proposed to include shared liability. We have included
our preferred language in our response. Addendum One refers to price adjustments being tied to
Consumer Price Indices and we would like this language to be removed, as the operational costs
associated with a Crossing Guard program are not tied to CPI. If selected to continue services we
would like to discuss price increase language that is acceptable to both parties.
Our goal is simple, to continue to relieve the City of Santa Ana of the day-to-day responsibilities of
managing a Crossing Guard Program. As your full services contractor, we have assumed complete
responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Santa Ana Crossing Guard program. This
includes recruitment, background clearance, hiring, training, equipment, payroll, supervision,
management of the program. We maintain local supervision, alternate guards, a paging system,
and a 24-hour 800 number to ensure adequate response and immediate back-up for any Crossing
Guard absent from duty for any reason. We also establish communication with each school to
ensure proper scheduling.
We have become the nation's largest provider of private crossing guards as a result of our singular
focus to this industry as well development of benchmark training. This includes our "Employee
Handbook for School Crossing Guards" which details our Job Requirements, the initial and
ongoing Training we provide, including our Site Evaluations, our Rules of Conduct, Crossing Guard
of the Year recognition and the Certification Requirements for all ACMS Crossing Guards.

COMPANY PROFILE
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), is a California based Corporation founded in 1985.
We are the largest provider of School Crossing Guard services, managing both large and small
Crossing Guard Programs. We currently have over 6,500 employees dedicated to safety, serving
cities, towns, communities, schools, and school districts nationwide.
One defining issue that distinguishes ACMS is that we are the only company that exclusively
provides School Crossing Guard Services. It is our commitment to limiting the scope and focus of
the company to School Crossing Guards that has helped us emerge as "The Crossing Guard
Company". We have successfully privatized the Crossing Guard programs for over 250+ agencies.
Ultimately our clients become the beneficiaries of our single-minded approach toward this industry.
The heart of our business is in assuming responsibility for the task and challenges of conducting a
successful Crossing Guard Program. Toward that end, in our typical contractual arrangement we
assume responsibility for; recruitment, local hiring, background clearance compliant with
Department of Justice standards, initial and ongoing training, payroll and administrative support
functions, coordination of assigning qualified substitutes during absences, local supervision,
complaint investigation and resolution, communicating with schools and site safety inspections.
One of the benefits we bring to any agency is our expertise in overseeing a seamless transition
from public to private management of the program. The continuity of the Crossing Guards'
employment is a key component of a seamless transition. We value the experiences and
understanding of the Crossing Guards currently working in each program we manage. Much of our
success with individual programs is a result of the experience and knowledge these Crossing
Guards bring to our management.
With over 34 years of experience, ACMS leads the Crossing Guard Industry in the development of
Crossing Guard standards for training, supervision, and safety.
Each program we have taken on has brought a unique set of issues and challenges. The heart of
our success has been our ability to articulate these challenges and experiences into our training,
policies, and procedures to benefit all Crossing Guards in all the cities, towns, and communities we
service.

The most significant resources ACMS brings to any Crossing Guard program is the depth and
scope of management provided by the years of experience brought by our operational
management team. The community of Santa Ana will continue to benefit from a team concept
which consists of Area Supervisor, Regional Manager, Regional Support Manager and Vice
President of Operations. Each Member of our management team is available 24 hours a day via

provide personnel management for all the sites they oversee and will interface with school staff
as needed. In addition to communicating with the City and School staff, they are responsible for
ensuring each employee receives the proper number of Site Performance Evaluations. The
Area Supervisors will be available by telephone on all occasions for discussion with City staff
and will be locally available for meetings in person upon 24-hour written or telephonic notice.
Area Supervisors will commit eighty-five percent (85%) of their time to the program and they
report directly to the Regional Manager.
Regional Manager (Michele Busch): Michele will serve as Project Manager and will continue
to directly manage your Area Supervisors and provide training and support. She will continue to

compliance with Company standards and City of Santa Ana expectations and be the liaison to
the City. Michele Busch will commit twenty percent (20%) of her time to the program and reports
directly to Regional Support Manager.

management and support for ACMS. She is responsible for the development and
implementation of operational standards, training programs, safety instruction and compliance
with all legal requirements and restrictions. Works directly with Project Manager to ensure all
program standards are being met. Kim has extensive experience implementing and managing

Understanding of Need
Approach and Management Plan
ACMS will continue to provide the agreed to level of service upon contract award and our
approach is simply a continuation of our current processes. This includes scheduling, daily site
inspections, guard sourcing, hiring and training (when needed) and overall program
management and administrative support.
We employ a Team Concept of management which results in efficient field operations as well
as providing a multifaceted response to potential problems. The Vice President of Operations
and Regional Support Manager work together (with input from City of Santa Ana) to establish
specific program objectives and expectations. These Senior Managers then work directly with
your Regional/Project Manager and Area Supervisors to implement the management plan.
The Project Manager along with your local Area Supervisors; has responsibility for the direct
management of the Crossing Guards and together they will continue to ensure City of Santa
Ana operational expectations are met. Standards and expectations are communicated to
Crossing Guards personally by their local supervisor so as to allow the employee a better
understanding of the decision -making process. This helps reduce confrontational attitudes by
establishing and enhancing the common goal of providing for the safety of school children.
Crossing Guard performance and compliance with safety standards will continue to be
accomplished through regular site visits by local Area Supervisors and Project Manager. In
addition to verbal training and counseling, these managers are supported by the use Field
Training Check Lists, Field Training Cards, Site Performance Evaluations, Independent
Field Observations and a professionally produced Crossing Guard Safety DVD. Reports of
satisfactory completion of all levels of training and ongoing safety reviews will be summarized
and available to the City of Santa Ana representative.
Background checks and fingerprinting will be completed on all potential employees as allowed
by California state law. Successful completion of the background check, drug and alcohol
screening, employment reference check and Social Security verification via E-Verify is
required prior to the employee being hired. ACMS understands eligible employees should
have no current or prior felony convictions. ACMS will comply within the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission guidelines when making hiring decision based on criminal records.
After hiring ACMS may conduct random field testing for drugs and or alcohol when use is
suspected or at the discretion of management. ACMS has a strict policy on Drug and Alcohol
abuse. This policy is included in our Employee Manual.
Internal minimum passing standards along with City of Santa Ana established standards would
prevent any person from working as a Crossing Guard for the program who has been
convicted of any crime of moral turpitude or a crime against children, including, but not limited
to:
• Conduct in violation of California Penal Code or which requires registration under
California Penal Code
• Conduct which requires registration under California Health and Safety Code.
• Any offense involving the use of force or violence upon another person.
• Any offense involving theft, fraud, dishonesty, or deceit.
• Any offense involving the manufacture, sales, possession or use of a controlled
substance
• Conspiracy or attempt to comment any of the aforementioned offenses.
• Any registered sex offender or narcotics offender.
Summary reports of background clearance on employees within the City of Santa Ana
Crossing Guard program will be regularly available to the City.
ACMS will investigate all public complaints concerning crossing guard services. All incidents
shall be reported to City within two (2) hours to advise the nature of complaint. ACMS shall
furnish a written report within five (5) business days after the date of the incident, which
includes the course of action/remedy/resolution of said complaint.
Communications with individual school sites is facilitated by Area Supervisors. Personal visits
are made regularly (minimum quarterly) to each school site in an effort to develop relationships
with staff and establish a collaborative environment for information exchange. Calendars and
bell schedules are obtained for each school both at the beginning of the school year and
periodically throughout the year. Key school personnel are supplied with appropriate contact
information (business cards) and reminded to inform ACMS of any changes. Additionally,
schools are provided with large magnets which can be easily displayed making contact
information effectively available to all staff. The email address of the Office Manager is also
obtained which enables ACMS administrative support staff to regularly contact each school
and proactively solicit information regarding potential schedule changes.
The establishment of accurate and responsive shift times is critical to the effectiveness of
Crossing Guard services. Sites further from the school would be expected to start earlier in
the morning and finish later in the afternoon. These staggered shifts effectively address the
time it takes for students to walk from a remote location to the school site (or vice versa in the
afternoon) and optimize the protected periods. Additionally, locations are continually
monitored for actual pedestrian traffic patterns enabling a better understanding of site needs
and any potential deviation from established guidelines.
ACMS Area Supervisors are in the field daily when crossings are covered by the guards and
they ensure all guards arrive on time and are ready for duties as scheduled. ACMS is in the
final stages of developing an application (App) that will monitor guard attendance via cellphone
and will improve efficiency in our timekeeping.
Recruitment and Staffing
ACMS Managers will continue to assess the staffing needs of the City of Santa Ana on
an ongoing basis. We will focus further recruitment efforts in the geographical areas
where additional Crossing Guards will be needed.
We have developed a comprehensive plan for recruitment of new Crossing Guards. As
a part of our Staffing strategy, we encourage a very aggressive recruitment program. We
utilize soft advertising, local media advertising, targeted flyers, on -site solicitation, school
flyers and employee referral bonuses as parts of our overall recruitment strategy. We
often work closely with school districts in some of our recruitment drives.
Our ability to effectively staff a Crossing Guard Program remains a fundamental benefit
that ACMS brings to most Crossing Guard Programs. Staffing sites is one of the primary
responsibilities of the Area Supervisors. They are trained to continuously recruit and
train prospective Crossing Guards. New recruits are first processed and submitted to the
Department of Justice for background clearance.
Supervisors are also responsible for coordinating the staffing for all sites under their
supervision. As part of our staffing strategy Area Supervisors aggressively enforce the
following policies and procedures for Crossing Guards.
♦ Supervisors must maintain an adequate alternate or substitute
guard roster. We encourage at least a 5 to 1 ratio of sites versus
alternate guards
♦ We require any guard not reporting for duty to notify the Area
Supervisor as early as possible utilizing our 24/7 Guard Hotline or
directly notifying their Area Supervisor. Notifications less than 1
hour prior to shift starts are considered unexcused absences.
♦ Our employee policy is "No call, No show, No Job" Throughout our
training we emphasize the importance of insuring the safety of
children by our presence. As such, we cannot allow the children's
safety to be compromised by failing to call or show for duty.
Supervisor Teams — The City of Santa Ana would benefit from our presence in nearby
cities such as: Costa Mesa, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Cypress, Laguna
Niguel, Los Alamitos, Yorba Linda, Placentia, Fullerton, Stanton, and Orange County
Sheriff's. Area Supervisors are grouped together by their geographic location. These
Teams meet every quarter and team members are encouraged to work together. This
cooperative effort allows them to share relief guards with each other, if needed. This has
resulted in alternates guards getting more hours as they are "shared" with other
Supervisors. Consequently, we are able to retain a more stable group of alternate
guards.
Training
Effective initial and ongoing training is essential in a profession dedicated to the safety of
children. With over 34 years of experience and a commitment to working cooperatively with
other public safety professionals, ACMS is recognized as an industry leader in the development
and implementation of School Crossing Guard training and standards of excellence.
The process begins during the first contact with a potential employee when our phone interview
process outlines job expectations and our zero -tolerance policy for failure to report for a
scheduled shift. Throughout the application process prospective employees are reminded
about the critical nature of our assignments and the work ethic and integrity required of our
employees.
Once hired, the training process starts in the classroom where employees review sections of
the "Employee Handbook for School Crossing Guards" and are shown the professionally
produced training DVD, "Crossing Guard Safety". The process then moves to a field practicum
where the trainer demonstrates proper procedures and allows the employee to practice correct
techniques. The employee's progress is closely noted on the detailed steps outlined on the the
Field Training Check List to ensure the employees' field competence. This cross -modality
approach not only exposes the employee to the necessary training components but also
addresses the needs of the visual, auditory and kinesthetic learner. While the classroom
setting is expected to require approximately two - three hours and the field training
approximately two - four hours, it's important to note that the low ratio of students to trainer
allows for accurate assessments of the employees readiness to move forward.
The new employee is typically assigned to alternate work and closely supervised during their
early assignments. They benefit from their trainer completing of a written assessment of their
work which better allows them to understand their strengths and weakness and make
improvements where necessary (the Site Performance Evaluation). Additionally, all new
employees are required to carry and regularly refer to the Field Training Cards. This pocket -
sized card (listing all steps for a safe cross) allows the employee to self -evaluate their
performance prior to the time they have all steps of the procedures memorized.
Throughout their employment, employees are subjected to the same Site Performance
Evaluation as an ongoing training and assessment tool. These evaluations happen in both
side -by -side sessions as well as unannounced observations without the knowledge of the
employee. Prior to the start of every school year guards are re -contacted for assignment
readiness and take part in a review/refresher training before the start of the school year.
The standard issue equipment and clothing includes:
• ANSI II compliant high -visibility retro-reflective vest marked with the required insignia of
a Crossing Guard
• MUTCD compliant 18" STOP/STOP paddle
Picture Identification Card with emergency contact information
• Company -issued cap or visor with corporate logo
• Whistle for emergency alert to vehicles and pedestrians
• High -visibility ANSI II compliant jacket and/or rain jacket.
Relevant Project Experience
Qualifications & Experience
Our ability to continue to operate and manage the City of Santa Crossing Guard program is
supported by our current success operating the Santa Ana program and with similar programs in
Southern California. Some of these programs include: City of Costa Mesa, City of Garden Grove,
City of Lake Forest, City of Cypress, Orange County Sheriff's, City of Yorba Linda, City of Fontana,
City of Buena Park, City of Tustin, City of La Palma, City of Fullerton and many others.
Our many other clients include; Beverly Hills Unified School District, CA; Pasadena, CA; Los
Angeles County Office of Education, CA; Huntington Beach, CA; Riverside, CA; San Bernardino,
CA; Redwood City, CA; County of Marin, CA; Palo Alto, CA; among many others.
Another defining component that distinguishes ACMS as the industry leader is our focus on
providing School Crossing Guard services. We are not a security guard company with a few clients
based upon a low-cost offering. Our singular area of service; "School Children Safety" enables all of
our resources to be devoted to the development and delivery of programs that provide exceptionally
high safety standards and client satisfaction.
It should be noted that ACMS has never lost a client agency due to the level of service provided.

Objective:
Every program we manage has the same objective and that is to provide a model School Crossing
Guard program. This is done by educating students on proper crossing techniques; such as
following local traffic regulations and using traffic control devices to ensure safe routes to school for
all students and parents in the community. We have accomplished this through our dedication to
on -going training, ensuring adequate staffing levels are in place, professional staffing and the years
of experience provided by our management team.
Challenges:
Each program we manage comes with its own set of challenges, which can vary from but not limited
to; transitioning from city, agency or district management to private management, becoming familiar
with ACMS policies and procedures, coordinating schedule changes from various schools,
accommodating guard days off due to medical needs, etc. It is through our detailed training,
experience in Crossing Guard Program management and continued employee training that has
allowed us to overcome these challenges.

The City of Santa Ana is located in central Orange County approximately 30 miles southeast
of Los Angeles. Santa Ana covers 27.2 square miles and is the most populous city in Orange
County with approximately 340,000 residents. The City of Santa Ana is the County Seat of
Orange County, which can lead to an increase in the daytime population by approximately
50% during normal business hours. Santa Ana is bordered by the cities of Orange, Tustin,
Garden Grove, Irvine and Costa Mesa. Santa Ana has a diverse population comprised of 73%
Hispanic, 12.4% White, 8.7% Asian, 1.3% Black, and 0.3% American Indian, and Eskimo.
There are approximately 54,000 students of all ages currently enrolled in schools throughout
the City. The City of Santa Ana has a mild climate with an average annual temperature of 75

Crossing guard locations are strategically positioned near schools located within the Santa Ana
Unified School District, the Garden Grove Unified School District and the Orange Unified
School District. During the 2018--2019 school year, crossing guards worked a total of 47,325
hours providing crossing guard services to the children of our community. Data for the 2019-
2020 and 2020-2021 school year are not provided due to the COVID pandemic which disrupted

RFP.
All City Management Services currently manages the Adult Crossing Guard Program which
consists of 52 crossing guards who provide crossing guard services to 70 locations within the
city limits, which are listed in Table A. Oversight was being provided by the Santa Ana Police
Department, however in the summer 2020, program oversight was transferred to the Public
Works Agency. All City Management Services also oversees the recruitment, training, and
management of all crossing guards, as well as their placement at locations as requested by the

Crossing Guard Services RFP No. 20-149
20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701
Dear Mr. Kekula
On behalf of All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), I would like to express our sincere
appreciation for the potential opportunity to continue to serve the City of Santa Ana Crossing Guard
program. We are proud to have served the community of Santa Ana for the past sixteen (16) years.
We have received the Request for Proposal, we have reviewed all RFP requirements,
Specifications, Scope of Work, Standard Agreement and Addendums. We agree with the terms and
conditions set forth with thee exception of Standard Agreement Item 7a — Insurance, Item -8
Indemnification and Addendum One regarding Price Adjustments.
Item 7a — requires General Liability combined single limit coverage of not less than $10,000,000 per
occurrence. Our current insurance coverage provides combined single limit coverage of not less
than $5,000,000 per occurrence. We would hope to avoid any additional expense to the City and
would request the limit to be lowered to $5,000,000 per occurrence. If the limit cannot be lowered,
we would need to secure additional coverage. We have included this optional pricing exhibit via
optional program pricing. Please see our pricing exhibits. Item 8 pertains to Indemnification and we
would request a modification to the language proposed to include shared liability. We have included
our preferred language in our response. Addendum One refers to price adjustments being tied to
Consumer Price Indices and we would like this language to be removed, as the operational costs
associated with a Crossing Guard program are not tied to CPI. If selected to continue services we
would like to discuss price increase language that is acceptable to both parties.
Our goal is simple, to continue to relieve the City of Santa Ana of the day-to-day responsibilities of
managing a Crossing Guard Program. As your full services contractor, we have assumed complete
responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Santa Ana Crossing Guard program. This
includes recruitment, background clearance, hiring, training, equipment, payroll, supervision,
management of the program. We maintain local supervision, alternate guards, a paging system,
and a 24-hour 800 number to ensure adequate response and immediate back-up for any Crossing
Guard absent from duty for any reason. We also establish communication with each school to
ensure proper scheduling.
We have become the nation's largest provider of private crossing guards as a result of our singular
focus to this industry as well development of benchmark training. This includes our "Employee
Handbook for School Crossing Guards" which details our Job Requirements, the initial and
ongoing Training we provide, including our Site Evaluations, our Rules of Conduct, Crossing Guard
of the Year recognition and the Certification Requirements for all ACMS Crossing Guards.

If our proposal is accepted for final selection, ACMS agrees to negotiate in good faith with the City
towards a final Agreement containing such material business and legal deal points as we set forth
in Proposal.
If awarded, the undersigned agree to execute a formal Agreement within ten (10) calendar days
following the Notice to Proceed and will deliver to the City prior to the execution of the Agreement,
certificates of Insurance and endorsements.
ACMS represents that the following person is authorized to negotiate on their behalf with the City in
connection with this RFP:
Harlan Sims, Director of Marketing
10440 Pioneer Blvd., Suite 5
Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670
800 540 9290, Ext 107
The undersigned certify that they have examined and are fully familiar with all of the provisions of
the RFP Documents and are satisfied that said documents are accurate; and that they have
carefully checked all works, figures and statements made in the proposal requirements and that we
have satisfied ourselves with respect to other matters pertaining to the proposal which in any way
affect the work or the costs thereof.

provide the City with services described in the proposal specifications an agreement documents.

COMPANY PROFILE
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), is a California based Corporation founded in 1985.
We are the largest provider of School Crossing Guard services, managing both large and small
Crossing Guard Programs. We currently have over 6,500 employees dedicated to safety, serving
cities, towns, communities, schools, and school districts nationwide.
One defining issue that distinguishes ACMS is that we are the only company that exclusively
provides School Crossing Guard Services. It is our commitment to limiting the scope and focus of
the company to School Crossing Guards that has helped us emerge as "The Crossing Guard
Company". We have successfully privatized the Crossing Guard programs for over 250+ agencies.
Ultimately our clients become the beneficiaries of our single-minded approach toward this industry.
The heart of our business is in assuming responsibility for the task and challenges of conducting a
successful Crossing Guard Program. Toward that end, in our typical contractual arrangement we
assume responsibility for; recruitment, local hiring, background clearance compliant with
Department of Justice standards, initial and ongoing training, payroll and administrative support
functions, coordination of assigning qualified substitutes during absences, local supervision,
complaint investigation and resolution, communicating with schools and site safety inspections.
One of the benefits we bring to any agency is our expertise in overseeing a seamless transition
from public to private management of the program. The continuity of the Crossing Guards'
employment is a key component of a seamless transition. We value the experiences and
understanding of the Crossing Guards currently working in each program we manage. Much of our
success with individual programs is a result of the experience and knowledge these Crossing
Guards bring to our management.
With over 34 years of experience, ACMS leads the Crossing Guard Industry in the development of
Crossing Guard standards for training, supervision, and safety.
Each program we have taken on has brought a unique set of issues and challenges. The heart of
our success has been our ability to articulate these challenges and experiences into our training,
policies, and procedures to benefit all Crossing Guards in all the cities, towns, and communities we
service.

as needed. In addition to communicating with the City and School staff, they are responsible for
ensuring each employee receives the proper number of Site Performance Evaluations. The
Area Supervisors will be available by telephone on all occasions for discussion with City staff
and will be locally available for meetings in person upon 24-hour written or telephonic notice.
Area Supervisors will commit eighty-five percent (85%) of their time to the program and they
report directly to the Regional Manager.

Understanding of Need
Approach and Management Plan
ACMS will continue to provide the agreed to level of service upon contract award and our
approach is simply a continuation of our current processes. This includes scheduling, daily site
inspections, guard sourcing, hiring and training (when needed) and overall program
management and administrative support.
We employ a Team Concept of management which results in efficient field operations as well
as providing a multifaceted response to potential problems. The Vice President of Operations
and Regional Support Manager work together (with input from City of Santa Ana) to establish
specific program objectives and expectations. These Senior Managers then work directly with
your Regional/Project Manager and Area Supervisors to implement the management plan.
The Project Manager along with your local Area Supervisors; has responsibility for the direct
management of the Crossing Guards and together they will continue to ensure City of Santa
Ana operational expectations are met. Standards and expectations are communicated to
Crossing Guards personally by their local supervisor so as to allow the employee a better
understanding of the decision -making process. This helps reduce confrontational attitudes by
establishing and enhancing the common goal of providing for the safety of school children.
Crossing Guard performance and compliance with safety standards will continue to be
accomplished through regular site visits by local Area Supervisors and Project Manager. In
addition to verbal training and counseling, these managers are supported by the use Field
Training Check Lists, Field Training Cards, Site Performance Evaluations, Independent
Field Observations and a professionally produced Crossing Guard Safety DVD. Reports of
satisfactory completion of all levels of training and ongoing safety reviews will be summarized
and available to the City of Santa Ana representative.
Background checks and fingerprinting will be completed on all potential employees as allowed
by California state law. Successful completion of the background check, drug and alcohol
screening, employment reference check and Social Security verification via E-Verify is
required prior to the employee being hired. ACMS understands eligible employees should
have no current or prior felony convictions. ACMS will comply within the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission guidelines when making hiring decision based on criminal records.
After hiring ACMS may conduct random field testing for drugs and or alcohol when use is
suspected or at the discretion of management. ACMS has a strict policy on Drug and Alcohol
abuse. This policy is included in our Employee Manual.
Internal minimum passing standards along with City of Santa Ana established standards would
prevent any person from working as a Crossing Guard for the program who has been
convicted of any crime of moral turpitude or a crime against children, including, but not limited
to:
• Conduct in violation of California Penal Code or which requires registration under
California Penal Code
• Conduct which requires registration under California Health and Safety Code.
• Any offense involving the use of force or violence upon another person.
• Any offense involving theft, fraud, dishonesty, or deceit.
• Any offense involving the manufacture, sales, possession or use of a controlled
substance
• Conspiracy or attempt to comment any of the aforementioned offenses.
• Any registered sex offender or narcotics offender.
Summary reports of background clearance on employees within the City of Santa Ana
Crossing Guard program will be regularly available to the City.
ACMS will investigate all public complaints concerning crossing guard services. All incidents
shall be reported to City within two (2) hours to advise the nature of complaint. ACMS shall
furnish a written report within five (5) business days after the date of the incident, which
includes the course of action/remedy/resolution of said complaint.
Communications with individual school sites is facilitated by Area Supervisors. Personal visits
are made regularly (minimum quarterly) to each school site in an effort to develop relationships
with staff and establish a collaborative environment for information exchange. Calendars and
bell schedules are obtained for each school both at the beginning of the school year and
periodically throughout the year. Key school personnel are supplied with appropriate contact
information (business cards) and reminded to inform ACMS of any changes. Additionally,
schools are provided with large magnets which can be easily displayed making contact
information effectively available to all staff. The email address of the Office Manager is also
obtained which enables ACMS administrative support staff to regularly contact each school
and proactively solicit information regarding potential schedule changes.
The establishment of accurate and responsive shift times is critical to the effectiveness of
Crossing Guard services. Sites further from the school would be expected to start earlier in
the morning and finish later in the afternoon. These staggered shifts effectively address the
time it takes for students to walk from a remote location to the school site (or vice versa in the
afternoon) and optimize the protected periods. Additionally, locations are continually
monitored for actual pedestrian traffic patterns enabling a better understanding of site needs
and any potential deviation from established guidelines.
ACMS Area Supervisors are in the field daily when crossings are covered by the guards and
they ensure all guards arrive on time and are ready for duties as scheduled. ACMS is in the
final stages of developing an application (App) that will monitor guard attendance via cellphone
and will improve efficiency in our timekeeping.
Recruitment and Staffing
ACMS Managers will continue to assess the staffing needs of the City of Santa Ana on
an ongoing basis. We will focus further recruitment efforts in the geographical areas
where additional Crossing Guards will be needed.
We have developed a comprehensive plan for recruitment of new Crossing Guards. As
a part of our Staffing strategy, we encourage a very aggressive recruitment program. We
utilize soft advertising, local media advertising, targeted flyers, on -site solicitation, school
flyers and employee referral bonuses as parts of our overall recruitment strategy. We
often work closely with school districts in some of our recruitment drives.
Our ability to effectively staff a Crossing Guard Program remains a fundamental benefit
that ACMS brings to most Crossing Guard Programs. Staffing sites is one of the primary
responsibilities of the Area Supervisors. They are trained to continuously recruit and
train prospective Crossing Guards. New recruits are first processed and submitted to the
Department of Justice for background clearance.
Supervisors are also responsible for coordinating the staffing for all sites under their
supervision. As part of our staffing strategy Area Supervisors aggressively enforce the
following policies and procedures for Crossing Guards.
♦ Supervisors must maintain an adequate alternate or substitute
guard roster. We encourage at least a 5 to 1 ratio of sites versus
alternate guards
♦ We require any guard not reporting for duty to notify the Area
Supervisor as early as possible utilizing our 24/7 Guard Hotline or
directly notifying their Area Supervisor. Notifications less than 1
hour prior to shift starts are considered unexcused absences.
♦ Our employee policy is "No call, No show, No Job" Throughout our
training we emphasize the importance of insuring the safety of
children by our presence. As such, we cannot allow the children's
safety to be compromised by failing to call or show for duty.
Supervisor Teams — The City of Santa Ana would benefit from our presence in nearby
cities such as: Costa Mesa, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Cypress, Laguna
Niguel, Los Alamitos, Yorba Linda, Placentia, Fullerton, Stanton, and Orange County
Sheriff's. Area Supervisors are grouped together by their geographic location. These
Teams meet every quarter and team members are encouraged to work together. This
cooperative effort allows them to share relief guards with each other, if needed. This has
resulted in alternates guards getting more hours as they are "shared" with other
Supervisors. Consequently, we are able to retain a more stable group of alternate
guards.
Training
Effective initial and ongoing training is essential in a profession dedicated to the safety of
children. With over 34 years of experience and a commitment to working cooperatively with
other public safety professionals, ACMS is recognized as an industry leader in the development
and implementation of School Crossing Guard training and standards of excellence.
The process begins during the first contact with a potential employee when our phone interview
process outlines job expectations and our zero -tolerance policy for failure to report for a
scheduled shift. Throughout the application process prospective employees are reminded
about the critical nature of our assignments and the work ethic and integrity required of our
employees.
Once hired, the training process starts in the classroom where employees review sections of
the "Employee Handbook for School Crossing Guards" and are shown the professionally
produced training DVD, "Crossing Guard Safety". The process then moves to a field practicum
where the trainer demonstrates proper procedures and allows the employee to practice correct
techniques. The employee's progress is closely noted on the detailed steps outlined on the the
Field Training Check List to ensure the employees' field competence. This cross -modality
approach not only exposes the employee to the necessary training components but also
addresses the needs of the visual, auditory and kinesthetic learner. While the classroom
setting is expected to require approximately two - three hours and the field training
approximately two - four hours, it's important to note that the low ratio of students to trainer
allows for accurate assessments of the employees readiness to move forward.
The new employee is typically assigned to alternate work and closely supervised during their
early assignments. They benefit from their trainer completing of a written assessment of their
work which better allows them to understand their strengths and weakness and make
improvements where necessary (the Site Performance Evaluation). Additionally, all new
employees are required to carry and regularly refer to the Field Training Cards. This pocket -
sized card (listing all steps for a safe cross) allows the employee to self -evaluate their
performance prior to the time they have all steps of the procedures memorized.
Throughout their employment, employees are subjected to the same Site Performance
Evaluation as an ongoing training and assessment tool. These evaluations happen in both
side -by -side sessions as well as unannounced observations without the knowledge of the
employee. Prior to the start of every school year guards are re -contacted for assignment
readiness and take part in a review/refresher training before the start of the school year.
The standard issue equipment and clothing includes:
• ANSI II compliant high -visibility retro-reflective vest marked with the required insignia of
a Crossing Guard
• MUTCD compliant 18" STOP/STOP paddle
Picture Identification Card with emergency contact information
• Company -issued cap or visor with corporate logo
• Whistle for emergency alert to vehicles and pedestrians
• High -visibility ANSI II compliant jacket and/or rain jacket.
Relevant Project Experience
Qualifications & Experience
Our ability to continue to operate and manage the City of Santa Crossing Guard program is
supported by our current success operating the Santa Ana program and with similar programs in
Southern California. Some of these programs include: City of Costa Mesa, City of Garden Grove,
City of Lake Forest, City of Cypress, Orange County Sheriff's, City of Yorba Linda, City of Fontana,
City of Buena Park, City of Tustin, City of La Palma, City of Fullerton and many others.
Our many other clients include; Beverly Hills Unified School District, CA; Pasadena, CA; Los
Angeles County Office of Education, CA; Huntington Beach, CA; Riverside, CA; San Bernardino,
CA; Redwood City, CA; County of Marin, CA; Palo Alto, CA; among many others.
Another defining component that distinguishes ACMS as the industry leader is our focus on
providing School Crossing Guard services. We are not a security guard company with a few clients
based upon a low-cost offering. Our singular area of service; "School Children Safety" enables all of
our resources to be devoted to the development and delivery of programs that provide exceptionally
high safety standards and client satisfaction.
It should be noted that ACMS has never lost a client agency due to the level of service provided.

Objective:
Every program we manage has the same objective and that is to provide a model School Crossing
Guard program. This is done by educating students on proper crossing techniques; such as
following local traffic regulations and using traffic control devices to ensure safe routes to school for
all students and parents in the community. We have accomplished this through our dedication to
on -going training, ensuring adequate staffing levels are in place, professional staffing and the years
of experience provided by our management team.
Challenges:
Each program we manage comes with its own set of challenges, which can vary from but not limited
to; transitioning from city, agency or district management to private management, becoming familiar
with ACMS policies and procedures, coordinating schedule changes from various schools,
accommodating guard days off due to medical needs, etc. It is through our detailed training,
experience in Crossing Guard Program management and continued employee training that has
allowed us to overcome these challenges.
Accomplishments:
ACMS has been successful in our ability to learn from each set of challenges, issues programs face
and articulate those changes and experiences into our training policies and procedures. This
ongoing training has allowed us to continue to improve and grow as a company and services
provider. Please see an attached listing of some of the recognition ACMS has received over the
years.
