SECTION D j UNDERSTANDING OF NEED
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City desires to retain a highly qualified Civil
Engineering Consultant on as as -need basis to
provide Plan Check Services. TKE recognizes the
City's need for plan check services for street
improvement plans, grading plans, water quality
management plans, storm drain improvement plans,
signing and striping plans, traffic studies, traffic signal
plans, signal modifications, street lighting plans,
traffic control plans, landscape and irrigation plans,
land survey documents such as: tract maps, parcel,
dedication legal description. TKE staff is prepared to
immediately mobilize and begin providing the
required services and related engineering assistance
for all plan check services of the City's project needs.
PROJECT APPROACH
TKE and the City have a common goal, successful
project delivery. Our definition of successful project
delivery is:
o Project completion that protects City interests
o Project completion that meets all project
requirements
o Project completion within budget
a Project completion on schedule
Our goal is not limited to project processing only, but
includes the incorporation of value engineering and
constructability review. Through the evaluation and
management of specific alternatives, we will facilitate
the delivery of the most cost-effective project
alternative that meets design requirements and will
provide for the greatest opportunity for expedited
construction.
To achieve our goal, we approach our projects by first
developing a project plan. Our project plan considers
the major issues described below. Prior to beginning
plan checking services, we would perform the
following:
o Detailed Review of the Project
is Preliminary Research and Data Collection
o Client Inquiries
o Field Reconnaissance
We have identified the following key elements which
are vital to quality plan check delivery:
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Project management will be an essential element in
project delivery. Effective communications will lead
to effective management. Management will include
Request for Proposals for On -Call Engineering Ph
Ift City of Santa Ana
weekly reviews of project budget and schedules and
regular meetings with all project shareholders.
For all projects, either development or capital
improvement, the most important aspect of
management will be to ensure that the City's interest
is protected to the maximum extent possible. Any
deviation from standards and requirements will be
referred to the Development Principal Engineer. TKE
will implement direction given by City staff.
For development projects, project requirements and
project schedule compliance will be important.
Project requirements will be assessed by the plan
checker and presented to the City's management
staff (i.e. Development Principal Engineer). Upon
receipt of direction from City administration, the Plan
Checker will be responsible to verify that
development is completed in compliance with those
project requirements. TKE's effective project
management techniques will ensure that compliance
will occur.
For developers, time is money. For the City,
development assists the City's economic engine.
Therefore, maintaining the project schedule will be
one of the most important tasks for the plan check
process. Further, maintaining excellent
communications will prevent any project processing
misunderstandings leading to project delays. TKE
management techniques will result in efficient project
delivery.
TKE's management approach includes
Monthly Progress Reports — TKE documents project
progress for all plan check projects assigned to TKE
by a comprehensive plan check summary log. The
summary log includes project name and related
number, plan description, plan check number, date of
receipt, due date, return date and notes.
Communication — Communications with agencies'
staff is another important component to effective
project management. In addition to the monthly
progress reports, TKE meets with clients as needed
to ensure the projects are proceeding as
anticipated. We document each discussion or
meeting with notes and electronically mail them to the
project team within three days of the
meeting/conference indicating action items and a
schedule for completion of these items.
Record Keeping — TKE keeps records in an
organized filing system both in hard copy and
electronic forms. This organized filing system allows
TKE to access records immediately should they be
needed. w
Check Services
Page 115
Meetings — TKE meets with project stakeholders as
needed. We meet with them upon request and
throughout the course of plan checking to ensure all
comments are properly addressed and considered in
the project design. All meeting preparation
(agendas, exhibits, slide shows, etc.) will be prepared
by TKE for each meeting. Again, meetings will be
documented. TKE has provided numerous meetings
with other consultants and developers to adequately
convey the City design requirements.
Team Meeting — Team meetings include all parties
particular, the City's Engineering and Public Works
Departments will be a close working partner with TKE
in determining plan check requirements and
conditions for development and capital projects.
REGULATORY, SUBDIVISION MAP ACT AND
CITY STANDARDS COMPLIANCE
Another primary function of the Plan Checker is to
verify compliance with all aspects of federal, state,
and local laws as well as the subdivision map act and
City standards. TKE is already well versed with
federal, state and local development law and the map
act requirements. Furthermore, TKE is extremely
knowledgeable of City standards and will verify that
all design related to engineering components are
prepared in accordance with these requirements and
standards.
DIGITAL PLAN CHECKING
TKE is familiar with digital plan checking and
equipped to provide digital plan checking services in
two different manners. We are equipped with Blue
Beam to provide fully digital plan checking
services. With Blue Beam, the City and development
community would also need to have the appropriate
software and computer capabilities to process and
review the plan checks. Many City's we currently
provide plan checking services for are not yet
equipped with these capabilities, therefore we
provide another form of digital plan checking to
accommodate such cities. For cities that are not
capable of fully digital plan check services, we are
able to accept a pdf submittal, review and print
necessary plans in-house and provide pdf plan check
plans and reports back to the City.
COMMUNICATION
TKE provides effective project management of plan
checking services to a variety of clients. We have
successfully delivered plan and map checking
services for extensive and highly visible developer
and CIP street improvement, traffic improvement,
drainage improvement, water, wastewater and facility
improvement projects for the Counties of San
Bernardino and Riverside, Cities of Fullerton, Irvine,
Diamond Bar, Eastvale, Upland, Fontana, Hesperia,
Banning, Calimesa, Corona, Chino, Adelanto,
Highland, Yucaipa, Rialto, Redlands, El Monte,
Azusa, South El Monte, Wildomar, and Pico Rivera
and for the San Bernardino Municipal Water
Department, Western Municipal Water District,
Rubidoux Community Services District, and Mission
Springs Water District. TKE's approach has
consistently allowed our partner agencies to fulfill
public's investment.
