Firm's Understanding of Services f. Firm's Understanding of Services 404' )( i )(, ' t+o,;do Introduction. GEC is a small business by design. Other geotechnical firms pursuing this contract have many more continuing services contracts with numerous agencies throughout Central Florida. GEC is selective in pursuing contracts; we hold only 10 continuing contracts with local municipalities and public entities we believe are a good fit for our company location, philosophy and goals. Our experience working on City of Ocoee projects under our current continuing services contract has convinced us that we can provide excellent service to the City and we enjoy working with your staff. Since you would not be one of a multitude of GEC continuing contracts, but one of a select few,you can continue to count on the availability of our staff and you will remain a high priority client for GEC. Understanding of Scope. Many of the technical challenges the City staff handles arise from meeting the demands of a fast-growing population.The majority of the assignments under this contract are anticipated to be for water, sewer, reclaimed water, stormwater, utilities and roadway maintenance and improvement projects. GEC has been serving Central Florida for 30 years and our professional staff is extremely knowledgeable of the local geological challenges, such as the karst (sinkhole-prone) geology and closed basin drainage systems, as well as the technical requirements that are typical of City projects. We understand that geotechnical engineering projects assigned under this contract may require a rapid response and a quick turnaround. GEC's headquarters within the City of Orlando limits enables GEC staff to be on site in less than an hour for a geotechnical assignment that requires an immediate response, such as an emergency pipeline repair or roadway subsidence. The involvement of at least one of the five GEC owners in every project we do for the City means that all of our resources can be directed to your projects whenever they are needed. We enjoy the challenge of handling numerous smaller projects at one time, and the satisfaction of completing a project in a few weeks, rather than a few years. These types of projects include roadways, utilities, fire stations, pavement evaluations and drainage studies. We believe a wide variety of engineering projects is good for our staff; the unusual technical challenges that arise keep us engaged and challenged to find good, cost-effective engineering solutions as quickly as possible. We know the key to providing the service you need on your projects is consistency in field testing, laboratory testing and reporting. GEC uses long-term employees on your projects for all three phases of our services. Having experienced technicians and engineers working on your projects allows us to solve technical issues quickly and avoid impacting the project budget or schedule. GEC's Orlando laboratory is accredited by the Construction Materials Engineering Council (CMEC) and is qualified by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). In addition, our Engineering Technicians hold numerous certifications and qualifications for construction materials testing and inspection. Project Approach. GEC has developed a straightforward organizational structure and management process to ensure easy communication of project information, project coordination and accountability for meeting project goals with regard to technical issues, schedule and cost. Our Organizational Chart for this contract is shown in Tab e. City of Ocoee Request for Qualifications(RFQ)#21-005 Gee Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services Geotechnical and Environmental 28 Consultants. Inc. f. Firm's Understanding of Services t I o..d� GEC's approach begins with our Contract Manager, Dan Stanfill, P.E., who has 37 years of experience as a Geotechnical Engineer in Central Florida. Dan will be the first point of contact and, as GEC Senior Vice President, can commit the necessary resources to the City for GEC to serve as an extension of your staff. Our Organizational Chart presents the key employees that GEC will assign to the contract. As you can see,four out of five GEC Owners (Rachel Andre, Dan Stanfill, Chris Meyer, and Richard McCormick) have key roles in our Management Plan;therefore,you can be assured this City contract will be a high priority for our firm.We have established efficient systems for proposal preparation, communications, managing project information, cost control, schedule, quality assurance and reporting. The following discussion describes our management approach in more detail. Project Initiation. The first step in a new project is your assignment of the project to GEC. Dan Stanfill is your Primary Contact and Dan's residence in Winter Park will make him immediately available to meet with you in person to review project details if needed. Gene Williford will be Dan's back-up should Dan be out of the office for some reason. Proposal Preparation. When notified of an assignment by City Staff, Dan will work with the City Project Manager to develop the scope of services and cost proposal. A focused and thorough proposal is necessary for any project to be successful. Dan will assign the proposal to the appropriate Task Manager(Geotechnical, Construction or Environmental) and will ensure that project requirements including the scope of services, budget and schedule are accurately reflected. The proposal will then be forwarded to the City Project Manager for review and preparation of the Work Order. Project Execution. Once the Work Order is received, Dan and the Task Manager will review the project requirements with the assigned GEC staff to ensure understanding of the scope, budget and schedule. Geotechnical and materials testing projects are unique and require active management since they involve field, laboratory and engineering activities. We have to work with the uncertainty of weather and other site conditions that can impact the field operations. GEC addresses these issues by maintaining an experienced professional and technician staff that is focused solely on Central Florida projects. We continually monitor the progress of our field operations and adjust our resources daily and as needed to achieve schedule milestones and meet client expectations. Schedule. We can submit our proposal within 24 to 48 hours after receiving the request from the City. Geotechnical and environmental projects are usually completed within 4 to 6 weeks. Construction materials testing schedules are dependent on the construction schedule. Dan and the GEC Task Leader will establish the schedule for each task assignment in conjunction with the City representative. For short duration projects, Dan will review the schedule on a daily basis to ensure that project deliverables are completed on time. For longer duration projects, monthly progress reports will be submitted and will indicate any deviation from the original schedule,along with corrective measures, if needed to achieve the overall project milestones. We can typically provide construction materials field and/or laboratory test results on the same day as the request to facilitate the contractor's schedule. For emergency response situations, such as pipeline breaks or roadway subsidences, GEC is committed to providing personnel on site within two hours of your notification. GEC's City of Ocoee Request for Qualifications(RFQ)#21-005 Gee Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services Geotechnical and Environmental 29 Consultants. Inc. f. Firm's Understanding of ServicesServices , 441. oc ( )(-)P florid° Orlando Office is located less than 30 minutes from the Ocoee City Hall, and we understand a prompt response in an emergency situation is critical to limit facility closure periods. Our in-house Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Cone Penetration Test (CPT) rig have been very useful in evaluating subsoil conditions when a subsidence or sinkhole occurs. As an example, GEC responded to a subsidence that occurred in 2019 at SR 50 and South Bluford Avenue. A sanitary sewer manhole structure shifted and GEC responded within 24-hours with GPR equipment and Crew to evaluate pavement thickness and potential raveled soils. GEC also developed preliminary recommendations for remediation of potential raveled soils. Schedules often need to be accelerated to accommodate grant funding requirements. GEC recently completed the geotechnical design of the Little Wekiva River Erosion Mitigation Improvements Project with the City of Altamonte Springs, which was funded by a FEMA Grant to repair flood damage and mitigate future flooding. In order for the City of Altamonte Springs to secure the grant funding, a very tight project schedule was established, and GEC mobilized multiple drill rigs to keep the project on schedule. Project Communications. Based on our experience,the projects assigned under this type of contract can vary widely in scope and duration, from less than a week to more than a year. Dan will work with the City representative to establish a schedule for updating the City on project milestones that is tailored to the project type and length. Part of GEC's construction materials testing quality control program requires immediate notification and tracking of failed tests so that remediation and retesting can take place promptly. If a material test failure cannot be remediated promptly, GEC will notify our City Project Manager to give them updates on the status of the failure and the remedial actions that are taking place. Cost Control. GEC's cost accounting system, Deltek Vision,tracks all project costs and develops budget status reports on a weekly or monthly basis. This allows our Project Managers to quickly identify any areas where the project budget may be exceeded and quickly take corrective action to complete the task assignment within the original budget. A review of the project budget status will be provided on a monthly basis as a minimum. In addition, GEC applies innovative solutions to projects when possible to limit project costs and enhance the schedule. An innovative technique employed by GEC is our in-house RoadScan Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)system to assess asphalt, base and subgrade thicknesses, as well as the possible presence of voids below the pavement. GEC's RoadScan GPR system collects continuous pavement section data at highway speeds, which avoids the need for traffic control, and the output data integrates easily with GIS asset management systems. GEC is the only private company in Florida with the RoadScan GPR system. Quality Assurance. GEC has a quality assurance/control program (QA/QC) thatpt: • //s miti addresses field, laboratory and engineering services. Gary Kuhns, P.E., GE Cs ;r-' .. -,� C _' Chief Engineer, will be the Quality Control Manager and Gary has 39 years of `-', ,�-,-,,, engineering experience in Central Florida. He will make sure our contract ,r '>r specific QA/QC procedures are followed on all City projects. GEC's QA/QC / • WIMP MIMI program includes the requirement for two authors on every engineering report, UM 11 with one author being a seasoned engineer who has been qualified as a Senior MIN RoadScan Pavement Thickness GIS Output City of Ocoee Request for Qualifications(RFQ)#21-005 Gee Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services Geotechnical and Environmental 30 Consultants. Inc. f. Firm's Understanding of Services fi t 1 florido Engineer in accordance with the GEC QA/QC Program. In addition, our Orlando and Kissimmee laboratories have their own QA/QC plans and are qualified by FDOT. Safety. Safety is always a GEC priority, especially since drilling, testing and other field operations can entail the use of heavy equipment and other potentially dangerous machinery in proximity to active roadways, utilities and other facilities. GEC has a corporate health and safety plan that covers all of our operations and we will develop a contract-specific health and safety plan for this City of Ocoee contract. Our personnel are trained in the safe use of all required machinery and equipment, and all precautions will be taken to avoid any concerns. Reporting. Project reports will be clear, concise and will be reviewed in accordance with the contract-specific QA/QC Plan. Construction materials testing projects will be reported on a monthly basis, along with a monthly invoice and updates on the project costs and schedule. As test results on construction projects are generally required as soon as possible to keep projects on schedule, field inspection and test results will be provided through email on a weekly basis.The following graphic illustration describes GEC's management approach for geotechnical/environmental and construction materials testing projects. Key items in the project approach such as review of existing data to reduce field investigation costs, early notification of design impacts when identified in the field and the use of project tracking sheets on construction testing projects have been highlighted in green on the flow charts.

NeoCity required up to 10 feet of fill to raise site grades and a large stormwater lake in the western portion of the site was the source of the fill material. GEC's geotechnical investigation of the proposed borrow material identified organic soil (muck) and silty and clayey sands typical of lake bottom conditions. Although the underlying very silty/clayey sands would be difficult to compact, it was necessary to use this "less than optimal" material on-site to limit construction costs. GEC provided detailed classification of the silty/clayey soils, along with recommendations for special handling, placement and preparation of the material to allow its use in building and roadway areas, greatly reducing City of Ocoee Request for Qualifications(RFQ)#21-005 aele.

GEC followed up quickly with a Phase II ESA, to sample and test soil and groundwater, and was able to determine that contamination was not present and was eliminated as a project concern. GEC's construction materials testing services included full-time monitoring of demucking activities as well as laboratory classification testing of excavated soils. Much of the in-situ soils at the NeoCity site are dark-stained from past exposure to the waters of Lake Tohopekaliga as well as the past agricultural use of the site, which makes identification of organic soils (muck) difficult. An experienced field technician, proficient in organic soil identification, was assigned to this project to avoid both under- and over-excavation of the muck. GEC field personnel developed daily field inspection reports as well as monthly status reports to facilitate communication of the field and laboratory test results to the site contractor and Osceola County.

We will address all alternatives to provide the most professional and cost- effective environmental, geotechnical, laboratory testing, construction materials testing and inspection services. intertek. psi RFQ#21-005 Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services I May 4,2021 Page 123 404- I. FIRM'S QUALIFICATIONS Geotechnical Services Approach: PSI's services will be performed in accordance with the most current version (unless the project is being designed under l/ an older version) of the Soils and Foundation Handbook (SFH) as well as related manuals, Structures Design Guidelines and procedures. Our services will include gathering of"existing data" (i.e. USDA SCS Soil Survey maps, USGS maps, historic aerial photographs and review of . geotechnical data from projects in close proximity). A well planned "existing data" review increases project awareness I and puts forth knowledge of any unusual conditions during � the planning stages. We understand that it is an FDOT District V requirement to obtain drilling permits for work f performed within the FDOT ROW. The field work will be r performed with appropriate Maintenance of Traffic and ATSSA certified personnel. Our local knowledge of existing soils conditions, availability of local construction materials, local contractor capabilities and potential claim areas, will be used to prepare the most cost effective/feasible recommendations and identify areas that may require special considerations beyond the typical scope of services. We would execute a program of subsurface sampling and field testing. Field testing would consist of Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and auger borings in the proposed development areas. The SPT borings would be performed in building and structure areas.The auger borings would be performed in the proposed pavement and stormwater retention areas.The boring depths would be planned to provide necessary subsurface information based on building loads, pavement requirements, and stormwater retention criteria.The borings would be field-located measuring from existing features at the site and hand-held GPS equipment. PSI will visually classify and stratify representative soil samples in the laboratory using the Unified Soil Classification System. We will conduct a laboratory testing program appropriate for each project, identify soil conditions at each boring location and form an opinion of the site soil stratigraphy. Performing permeability testing for proposed stormwater facilities, collecting groundwater level measurements in the boreholes and estimating normal wet seasonal high groundwater levels would also be part of our scope. The results of the field exploration and laboratory tests will be used in PSI's engineering analysis and in the formulation of our geotechnical recommendations. The results of the field and laboratory work, including the recommendations and the data on which they are based, will be presented in a written report to the City. fntertek PSI RFQ#21-005 Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services I May 4,2021 Page 124 404 I.

Intertek psi RFQ#21-005 Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services I May 4,2021 Page 125 t I I. FIRM'S QUALIFICATIONS Environmental Services Approach: Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) Phase I ESAs are conducted to search for evidence of recognized environmental conditions (RECs), historical RECs, Controlled RECs, and Vapor Encroachment Conditions in connection with the subject property. PSI performs Phase I ESAs in general accordance with ASTM Standard E 1527-013, Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process. Phase I ESAs may also be performed to satisfy the requirements to qualify for the innocent landowner, contiguous property owner, or bona fide prospective purchaser limitations on CERCLA liability, or landowner liability protections (LLPs). Each Phase I ESA report is performed under the direction of an Environmental Professional and reviewed by a Principal Consultant. Phase II ESAs If the conditions observed in a Phase I ESA indicate that additional information is needed to determine the presence or absence of pollutants, PSI has trained personnel to perform Phase II ESAs. Phase II ESAs are site-specific, and the scope of services is generally based on the findings of the Phase I ESA report. The sampling process encompasses the initial assessment, development of a specific sample plan, sample collection (including field measurement where necessary to obtain reliable results), field handling (e.g., filtration where determination of the dissolved fraction of metals is desired), and preservation and delivery of samples to the analytical facility (with consideration of special transportation and holding time requirements). Underground Storage Tanks PSI has performed hundreds of UST closures in a wide variety of settings. Frequently,these activities are performed concurrently with active construction following the discovery of unregistered tanks during site development, where sensitivity to contractor schedule and budget is of paramount importance. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) A SWPPP is used to identify potential sources of pollution that may reasonably be expected to affect the quality of stormwater discharge form a facility and to ensure the implementation of best management practices, which are used to reduce the pollutants associated with industrial activities. An SWPPP also enables the City to maintain compliance with the terms and conditions of a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Multi-sector General Permit. PSI prepares these plans on a regular basis in general accordance with the requirements of the EPA and the Clean Water Act Section 402, for appropriate state and local regulations. Regulatory Permitting Good communication between the Project Manager and the Client to assure that the ultimate objective of the permit is understood by all affected parties, between the Project Manager and the permitting agency to assure that all appropriate information is presented to the agency to allow for a quick and hassle-free review and approval of the permit, and between the Project Manager and construction team to assure that all parties understand the boundaries of the permit to assure that violations of the permit are not encountered, which could lead to fines and/or project delays. into rtek Ps' RFQ#21-005 Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services I May 4,2021 Page 126 t I.

FIRM'S QUALIFICATIONS Scheduling& Quality Control The entire contract will be processed through PSI's state of the art A +L AWArli pVI7IM .IiQ7i laboratory information management system called PSIQEST. PSIQEST leverages Quality, Efficiency, Standardization and Technology. It is a web-based solution that integrates project set up and tracking; work assignments and employee scheduling; laboratory management and technical reporting; and financial reporting. For every task, PSIQEST creates a specific work order, schedules the task, assigns the certified/qualified employee, and tracks the employee's time on site. For every sample, PSIQEST ensures that the person obtaining the sample is qualified, the equipment used is appropriate to the task and is currently calibrated, and the appropriate test method is applied. PSIQEST is incorporated into our Quality Control Plan and is approved by AASHTO, CCRL, AMRL, CMEC and the Army Corps of Engineers. Subsequent to a qualified technician entering in test data, PSIQEST electronically presents results instantaneously to the Project Manager and/or project engineer for approval. Once the data is approved, test reports will be emailed to you through PSI's Construction Hive. The system can distribute report data to up to 99 unique locations. The project client representatives as well as other construction project team members can be granted access to the data files and test results on a real time basis through the web portal, which is also searchable and automatically archive-able. PSI will also be integrating PSIQESTField on this project for on-site data acquisition; testing and inspection reports will be delivered into the project team from smart devices. All of PSI's field personnel will have Wi-Fi enabled laptop computers, tablets or smart phones on site with PSIQESTField to achieve the real-time reporting that will be critical to this contract. Data will be review by our Project Manager and/or Special Inspector upon immediate receipt of the field report, for editing/correcting and augmenting with laboratory test data. It is then entered into a project database accessible by the PSI Team as well as the City. As work commences, all reports will be uploaded to our Construction Hive web-based portal, where the City can easily review, print, and/or archive the data. With this system, all parties will have instant appraisal of the status of individual projects. We are also happy to compile hard copy backup with our invoices, as we currently provide to various City personnel. Budget Adherence/Commitment to Cost Control Our single point of contact with the City, Aaron Wells, PE will shepherd the project's geotechnical, environmental, and materials testing/inspection services from the initial conversations through to the project close-out. As such, Mr. Wells will always "be in the loop" regarding the project's allotted budget and work authorizations, submitted invoicing, changes in scope, current status and potential short-falls or overruns. PSI's philosophy states that effective communication is a cornerstone of client satisfaction and can only be achieved through early identification, planning and establishment of project requirements and budget constraints. The relationships that PSI established with the City personnel will facilitate the coordination required for a timely resolution of any technical issues. The members of PSI's team have also worked closely with each other and with the City for many years, which also enhances the coordination continuity. vitertek. psi RFQ#21-005 Continuing Contracts for Geotechnical Testing Services I May 4,2021 Page 131 t!

As a leader in Geotechnical Engineering Tierra performs a variety of services in-house without the use of subconsultants. Most other firms use subconsultants for specialized geotechnical services. To meet our clients needs and expedite results Tierra does not have subconsultants for the following specialized geotechnical services. Sinkhole Evaluation and Remediation Tierra has significant experience in the identification and remediation of sinkhole conditions and we have performed thousands of subsidence investigations for clients throughout Florida. The focus of a geotechnical exploration in sinkhole-prone areas is to locate potential problematic subsurface conditions and define their extent. Tierra can utilize a variety of methods to evaluate the subsurface conditions present at a site and, based on the results of our exploration, we can prepare recommendations for repair and provide monitoring services during sinkhole remediation. Geophysical Evaluation: Tierra has the capability to offer an array of geophysical testing for identifying and evaluating subsurface anomalous conditions. Tierra owns our own equipment and can provide Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to evaluate subsurface conditions. The geophysical surveying is typically performed prior to soil borings so that the anomalous areas, if any, are identified and can be further characterized by drilling. Geotechnical Drilling: With one of the largest drilling fleets in the area, Tierra's complete in- house drilling capabilities make it easier to coordinate schedules and control cost without the need to rely on subcontractors. Our fleet of eleven (11) drill rigs includes track, truck and barge- mounted equipment as well as limited access rigs allowing our crews to access almost any drill site regardless of terrain or location. Our geotechnical drilling capabilities include Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings, casing installation, borehole grouting, rock coring and sampling, well/piezometer installation and abandonment, hand muck probes, hand augers, pavement and concrete cores,field permeability testing and Double Ring Infiltration Testing. ir1t 111111116rti...'"

We help our clients succeed in their projects by effectively executing projects, controlling costs, and managing risk. Our clients appreciate this approach, and they know that we intend to be an extension of their office. METHOD OF APPROACH NADIC understands the challenges facing the City of Ocoee and their need to "do more with less"we will proactively participate on your projects in ways that will ultimately allow the City to save cost. During construction we will provide owner-centered testing and inspection services that verify that the City is receiving the specified materials and construction quality. For environmental issues we will take a very practical approach that seeks the most efficient path that protects the health and welfare of the public and satisfies the regulatory requirements while minimizing the City's resources of time and money. For design projects, our analytical methods are geared to developing the most cost-effective foundation and site preparation alternatives. Further, we understand the special consideration inherent in public work that require us to serve as an advocate for the City and to complete all assignment knowing that our work is subject to public scrutiny. Geotechnical Services: Understanding the subsurface - •fw soils, rock and groundwater conditions is fundamental to the " 4,, +�►,&� design and construction of a functional and cost-effective ' r► 1 ;+'i structure.A wide variety of field explorations are anticipated ( to be required within the scope of this contract. - If • All geotechnical activities including field, laboratory testing _ ' y k_ • and engineering evaluation will be conducted in accordance with the project requirements and current Ocoee and FDOT _.� policies, procedures, and specifications.

PM ASSIGNS STAFF WA IS ACCEPTED Depending on project requirements, field exploration would consist of Standard Penetration SERVIC,S ARE PEREpRMEE) Test (SPT) or Cone Penetration Test (CPT) and auger borings within the proposed project area. SPT and/or CPT borings would be performed in PEPt,Rr rNT41HINp RECOMMENDAnONS IS PPO5'IDE building and structure areas while auger borings „E,,,, would be performed within proposed stormwater retention area and under proposed paved areas. The borings would be located in the field by MJPMITTAE measuring from existing features and with the aid x APPROVED' of a hand-held Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment. The boring depths would be planned to provide the necessary subsurface conditions for the project. The recovered samples would be examined, logged and visually classified in the field, and securely packed for shipment to the laboratory for further classification by an engineer and laboratory testing. Upon completion and after groundwater measurement,all borings would be backfilled. During and immediately following completion of field exploration, the recovered soil samples would be visually classified and stratified based on the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). A laboratory tests program appropriate for the project would be performed. Typical laboratory tests would evaluate soil type, organic content, strength, compressibility and permeability. The engineer assigned to the project would use the results of the field exploration and laboratory test results to perform engineering analysis and formulate engineering recommendations with respect to the project design and construction. Field logs, boring location plans and site maps would be prepared to document and illustrate the encountered conditions in a clear and legible manner. Typically, immediately following completion of field exploration, a geotechnical report is generated concurrently with laboratory test and engineering analysis.This method allows for prompt turnaround time,and project efficiency. The final report would be based on the field and laboratory tests results, assessments of the existing conditions and their influence on the project (whether beneficial or detrimental), and detailed recommendations for design as well as construction considerations, as appropriate. Environmental Services: Due to the crucial nature of Environmental Risk Projects,test turnaround time is probably one of the most important capabilities required of environmental professional services consultants. Rapid results lead to project efficiencies in go/no-go decisions and in tum, lead to cost savings. We understand that fast results lead to project efficiencies as a result, budget savings. Should any unusual condition or technical challenge arise on your project, our key team members can provide immediate advice and practical solutions. Wte. RFQ#21005 CONTINUING CONTRACTS FOR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES 1.11,1041114 .4 Our team have conducted a variety of assessments ranging 1 from ASTM Phase I environmental site assessments (ESAs) to extensive subsurface investigations. We have performed hundreds of Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) and Phase II ESA. We understand the goal of the Phase I ESA is to identify recognized • f - environmental conditions (REC) such as hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property, under * conditions that indicate an existing or past release, or a material threat of a release that may impact environmental t media on the property. Our Phase I ESAs are performed in strict accordance with requirements of ASTM E1527-05 a /,i1: . standards and routinely include a limited review of non- scope considerations including radon, wetlands and suspect asbestos-containing building materials. Our Phase II ESA is conducted to find whether or not the REC reported in the Phase I ESA presents an environmental concern, hazard or liability to our client.All Phase I & II reports are reviewed internally and signed and sealed by licensed professional engineer. Our team has extensive experience assessing and remediating sites for public clients. Our Team is knowledgeable of geologic conditions, regulatory jurisdictions, and location information as defined in ASTM E-1527. This will help WASD to avoid problematic situations, and to efficiently complete site assessments with a trusted local partner. We are capable of providing a full spectrum of soil, sediment, surface water and groundwater contamination assessment, investigative and remediation services. Our Team has extensive experience and a thorough understanding of the process for the planning, implementation of soil and groundwater contamination assessment, both chlorinated solvent and heavy metals (such as lead) contaminants. Awareness of Permitting Requirements: NADIC's familiarity with regulations and the County's permitting process is an important component of our consulting services. The permitting effort requires a thorough knowledge of regulations and policies enforced by several Seminole County and State of Florida agencies, including DERM (RER), FDEP, Department of Solid Waste, and SFWMD. Our Team's permitting approach between the Contract Manager and the permitting agency assures that all appropriate information is presented to the agency to allow for a quick and hassle-free review and approval of the permit. Materials Testing and Inspection Services: Our Team understands that construction projects do not always go as planned which is why NADIC runs a 24/7 business with an emergency dispatcher available at any time. In order to keep track of the project schedule, we have a Contract Coordinator whose sole purpose is to make sure our Team _ ,•. _ members are available, punctual, and trained for the '=": Atm.,"" ' client's needs. Every project starts with a thoroughly review gamma. v �► of the project plans and specifications, and a meeting with the City staff to set up the testing approach. It is vital to establish fluid communication with the contractor and the City's staff by holding a "kick-off' meeting. This allows us to establish a work schedule for testing and inspection, and . help to identify and reduce risks at the beginning of the �w� rQ 421005 CON IlNUINO CONTRACI S FOR GEO IECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES WORK AUTHORIZATION FLOW CHART project. We assign and maintain the same MATERIALS TESTING &INSPECTIONS personnel through the duration of the projects to f1 allow for continuity and efficiency. CITY IDENTIFlES NADIC DEVELOPS �' A TASK UNDER SCOPE&PRICING ,� WAS Our technicians are cross-trained and equipped to THE CONTRACT ACCEPTED FOR WA perform all of the necessary testing required for tr-42 City projects.

CONTRACTOR PROCEEDS Our field technicians are trained to properly document project issues such as gaps, IS TASK inconsistencies, or conflicts in their daily field logs X COMPLETE, when they happen.The information in the daily log including any retesting, standby time or re- CLOSE OUT inspection time will be verbally communicated and DOCUMENTATION&SUBMITTAL made available to the Construction Supervisor daily and also presented in the project weekly summary. This makes sure that issues are indeed raised, and investigated and resolved quickly and effectively.Proper field documentation and reporting,as well as timely submittal of test results will help eliminate unnecessary project quality control concerns. We are using state-of-the-art and calibrated equipment with written procedure for testing and inspections. Both our field and laboratory testing services are operated in accordance to NADIC's Quality Management System (QMS). This internal quality management manual was developed to meet the requirements of AASHTO and CMEC for testing laboratories providing soils, aggregate, asphalt and concrete testing. NADIC documents training of staff, equipment and calibrations. We verify and establish internal quality control procedures as stated in our QMS. Our team also participates in annual reference sample and proficiency tests which are compared statistically by the accrediting agencies to assess accuracy in testing methods. NADIC team's laboratories are inspected annually by the accrediting agencies, including FDOT, CMEC and AASHTO. Project Issues and Challenges All tasks are managed and supervised by a qualified and experienced engineer, assigned to the task by our contract manager, Godwin Nnadi Ph.D., P.E. These individuals, selected specifically for their expertise in the task requirements,are responsible for both supervising the task team and managing the successful completion of the task, including adherence to schedule and budget. The responsibility of establishing a schedule for a task falls on the Task Manager.These experienced individuals are well versed with estimating cost and schedule requirements, and, more importantly,with the need to involve the City Ayw4G RFQ#21005 CONTINUING CONTRACTS FOR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES on the scheduling and budget process and to maintain a line of communication throughout the task. Nevertheless, delays which negatively impact the schedule are not uncommon, and when they become evident it is imperative that our Task Managers immediately inform the City, describing the situation and reasons for the delay. Together with the City, NADIC's Task Manager will assess the impact of the delay and consider the available options for reducing the negative effects on completion of the task. If the delay was resulting from NADIC's failure to perform, we will conduct an internal evaluation to assure that future failures do not occur. Potential Project Risks Avoidance/ Minimization Approach Avoidance: NADIC schedules a preconstruction meeting with the Contractor to Misunderstanding of Scope and introduce our core team personnel assigned to the project. NADIC also Scheduling/Response addresses the scope of work, scheduling, cost saving strategies, and our standard 24-hour response times. Avoidance: Being proactive by discussing scheduling and standard 24-hour Contractor forgets to provide 24 hours' response time during preconstruction meeting. notice for testing Minimization: NADIC makes every effort to send a technician out to the site in time.

Obtain background checks, drug testing, etc. as required and provide testing,etc.) documentation. Errors in calculations/reporting Avoidance: Perform QA/QC Process on each project 4Wy Q.42,1005 CUiNIINL1Nu LUNTRAC1S t.UR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES Adhering to Budget and Schedule: When provided any task by the City, our Contract Manager, Dr. Nnadi with other key staff will develop a project scope that addresses the specific need. An appropriate experienced project manager will be assigned to the task. The key to cost control and a successful project execution is the quality of communication between the City and the project team, and good planning. The project manager will provide direct line of communication between the City and NADIC. Staffing will be based on the needs of the City and the project manager ensures that the assigned staff is the right staff for the task. The staff assigned to the task will be committed to the project until the task is completed. Our Project Manager will track project cost closely and will be in constant communication with the City to ensure the scope of services align with the initial proposal. The task project manager will meet regularly with the appropriate City Task Manager for updates and performance review. We internally audit the project costs data to verify all invoices and time sheets are accurate.This allows us to eliminate project inefficiency and in turn, increase budget savings. Upon approval of the proposal by the City, Dr. Nnadi, our Contract Manager will activate our Project team within 12 hours. During the next two (2) days after approval, our task project manager will contact the City's Task Manager representative to define the project scope, timeline, and obtain all necessary documents. Geotechnical Engineering services for most projects are typically completed within two(2)to three(3)weeks,while construction materials testing and inspection services are performed on a project-by-project basis,as the requirements are contingent on the scope. Our testing and inspection personnel are available at a moment's notice and can service the City on projects seven (7) days a week. Our technicians and engineers are cross trained and this allows us to exceed the normal response time for typical tasks expected in this contract. NADIC will meet any response and test turnaround time set forth by the City. Quick response to the City's needs results in cost saving to the City. Our estimated turn-around time for services that may be required under this contract is shown below: GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING MATERIALS TESTING & INSPECTION Field crew on site Technician on site Normal Response: within 72 hours of notification Normal Response: 24 hours Emergency Response: within 24 hours of Emergency Response: within 1 hour of notification notification Final Report Field Reports Normal Response: 2-3 weeks (authorization to Normal Response: immediate (when required) completion) Laboratory Reports (typed, signed and sealed) Emergency Response: 1 week or less (expedited) Normal Response: 2-4 days (depending on test) The ability to provide reports and results in a timely manner is an important aspect of successfully performing under a continuing contract. NADIC's ability to obtain similar public-sector continuing contracts is testimony to our ability to meet scheduling expectations of our public clients. Our dedicated staff and resources give us the ability to meet virtually any schedule. The schedule for producing geotechnical and environmental study reports is dependent on the scope and magnitude of the project. We will work closely with the City to establish the appropriate work scope and develop a schedule that meets the needs of the scope. Obviously, there will be times when a very quick turnaround is required. We have the resources to address these "emergency" situations. Materials Testing and Inspection Services are very critical regarding test turnaround. Construction schedules are frequently dependent on the results of acceptance testing. NADIC 's laboratory is designed to accommodate large volumes of work, and process test results quickly. JWG ;�FQ#21005 CONTINUING CONTRACTS FOR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES Quality Control and Quality Assurance Successful project management requires attention to Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC). NADIC main objective is to provide quality services to our clients. QA/QC has been the cornerstone of our reputation, which is overseen by Richard Haffner, PE. Mr. Haffner holds a Master Quality Management and is a FDOT certified Quality Control Manager. Mr. Haffner is responsible for establishing and managing the Quality Control and Quality Assurance policies for NADIC and often acts as a liaison between NADIC and our clients. Our Quality Management System (QMS), is the umbrella process by which we impose the stringent quality controls for our projects, and can implemented to various degrees, depending on the nature and magnitude of the project. This policy encompasses the certification of NADIC technical staff and laboratory facilities. Our committed to total-quality management is grounded in three main elements: Client participation, standardization, and independent technical reviews. We believe that the following items are essential to developing a quality system covering all aspects of our services. Work Quality - The primary way to achieve quality results is perform the work in a quality manner with quality equipment. Our approach is to always assign personnel who are properly trained and certified. The field and laboratory technicians are required to obtain and maintain the proper certifications applicable to their work type. Further, the field and laboratory equipment are maintained in good working order and regularly calibrated to obtain the most accurate and consistent results. The QMS includes a quality control checking, back checking, verification procedures, and QA/QC reviews/audits of all work and documents. Employee Education - Our professional and technical staff attends continuing education workshops and presentations.Technician training has included an extensive FDOT formalized training process through which dozens of our technicians have obtained CTQP certifications. Documents/Reporting - All project-related correspondence, notes, calculations, graphics, invoices, preliminary reports, final reports and contracts are maintained in project files for a minimum of three years after completion of the contract,or as required by our client.After three years we scan and store documents in lieu of retaining original paper documents. We maintain a library of updated software, guidelines, manuals and specifications is critical to our work. We have subscribed to e-mail lists for the major testing specification organizations (AASHTO and ASTM) as well as FDOT, so that we are notified of changes to their standard specifications. Laboratory Inspection - Our laboratory is inspected annually by the Concrete Materials Engineering Council, and FDOT. Quality Review- The results of all field and laboratory tests are subject to an initial independent review. All reports issued by NADIC will be reviewed by a registered and experienced Professional Engineer. Any inconsistencies or discrepancies are noted and resolved between the reviewer and the author of the report. This peer review process helps to assure that each report issued has had a thorough and accurate engineering review. Senior Engineer Review- All work performed by Project Engineers is reviewed and checked by a Task Managers. We frequently implement a peer/quality assurance review by an in- house engineer from one of the other Task Managers.All proposals and reports are reviewed by a minimum of two individuals which include a senior engineer who reviews the document for accuracy and thoroughness. Safety- Safety is our top priority. It is our commitment to provide a strong safety program covering not only field personnel, but members of the general public which may also be impacted by project activities. Our personnel follow Pre-Task Planning safety guidelines while implementing their day-to-day activities. Our safety program is enhanced by weekly tool box talks, as well as project/task specific training when needed. Our safety plan encompasses all that OSHA requires and more. 04 RFQ#21005 CONTINUING CONTRACTS FOR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES Innovative Concepts: NADIC continually searches for innovative and effective cost saving solutions for our ` clients.An innovative technique employed by NADIC is to use our in-house Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) a, system to assess asphalt, base and subgrade - thicknesses, as well as the possible presence of voids below the pavement. NADIC's GPR system collects continuous pavement section data at highway speeds and �"� the output data integrates easily with GIS asset management systems.- We are one of the few local firms to deploy unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV/Drone) technology on our projects. Our team is qualified with FAA Part 107 Certification, which allows us to a commercial operator a 107 Small Unmanned Aircraft.We have tested the use of UAV's on a few clients and have increased efficiency, project visibility,and budget savings. The use of UAV technology allows our team to; minimize the obvious dangers and health risks, collect in- depth and higher detail data, inspect difficult to reach and hazardous areas, save time and money for the City. 0 e_ m n -4 ID ID 0 A C, J G :.FQ#21005 CONTINUING CONTRACTS FOR GEOTECHNICAL TESTING SERVICES 4 • .. .`0 ' s 4, t - ' ; t le: 4 -_ ` r.�g .+.ems- � :.�� r ♦y,, 4111411111, Oil jjjnf fY/ , Oil Ort if'1"- TABB FIRM'S OFFICE LOCATION & OTHER FORMS ••J•x...
