CC - Item 7B - Professional Service Agreement for Building and Safety Division e ` Il 9 o ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL AdI1\ STAFF REPORT c vume TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: GLORIA MOLLEDA, CITY MANAGER DATE: MAY 8,2018 SUBJECT: PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT FOR BUILDING AND SAFETY DIVISION SUMMARY The Building and Safety Division serves and protects the public by ensuring that building construction complies with California Building Standards Code (Title 24, California Code of Regulations) as well as State safety laws, disable access, and City Ordinances. As a contract city, Rosemead has historically contracted its Building and Safety Division of the Community Development Department with Los Angeles County ("County") or a private consultant. From Rosemead's incorporation as a City in 1959, the County had provided Building and Safety services until 1981 when the City entered into a service contract with Willdan Engineering ("Willdan"). Since 1981, Willdan has provided ongoing building and safety services under Professional Service Agreement(s) ("Agreement")with the City. The current Agreement with Willdan was entered on April 28, 2015 and is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2018. The Agreement does include an option for the City to extend the Agreement two (2) additional years. However, Staff felt prudent and in the best interest of the City, to release a Request for Proposal ("RFP") in order to ensure that the City retains for upcoming years the highest qualified consulting services at a competitive cost. The City received a strong response to the RFP with eleven (11) submittals. After careful consideration of each proposal, including but not limited to; responses to the RFP requirements, firms' history and ability to provide services, proposed staff qualifications, proposed fee structures, and interviews with the four qualified low bidding firms, staff believes that entering into a new contract with Interwest Consulting Group would be the best course of action for the City at this time. ITEM NO. 7.B City Council Meeting May 8,2018 Page 2 of 10 DISCUSSION Request For Proposal ("RFP") The RFP for building and safety services was released on February 22, 2018, with posting on the City's website and distribution to thirteen (13) prospective firms. Proposals were due to the City Clerk's Office on March 22, 2018, where the received submittals remained unopen until after the 3:00 p.m. deadline. No proposal was received after the deadline. All received proposals are on file with the City Clerk's office for public record and review. The scope of service was prepared with the current service efficiency level in mind and to ensure that the City would continue to receive services on an all-inclusive percentage compensation fee schedule with no additional fees for building services charged by the consultant. The terms included the minimum number of full time staff that must be assigned to the City, counter service hours and over-the-counter plan check, building inspection services (including morning inspections on Fridays), and others. As such, the service level would be consistent with the current operation of the Building and Safety Division which is operating efficiently. The RFP also clarified the compensation schedule and staffing as follows: • Compensation is clarified as "net revenue." Net revenue excludes added fees or charges, such as fines, penalties, and others where no added service is provided by the consultant. For example, the net revenue does not include double fee fine for construction without a permit (which the fine recover costs to correct the violation by Code Enforcement and Planning services). Refund of plan check or building permit fee where an applicant withdraws the project is also removed in net revenue calculation. • City Hall staffing is to include: o Certified Building Official (full-time) o Certified Combination Building Inspector(full-time) o Permit Technician(s) (full-time) o Certified Plan Checker(part-time city hall) and outside service for larger projects The requirement for "Certified" Building Official, Building Inspector and Plan Checker is to comply with the State of California Health and Safety Code, Chapter 7 (Construction Inspectors, Plans Examiners, and Building Officials). Specifically, Section 18949.28(a) requires, "[AA construction inspectors, plans examiners and building officials.......obtain certification from a recognized state, national, or international association. as determined by the local agency. " Section I 8949.29(a) further states, "[A]!l construction inspectors, plans examiners, and building officials shall complete a minimum of 45 hours of continuing education for every three-year period, with at least eight hours regarding disability access requirements pursuant to subdivision (d). " City Council Meeting May 8,2018 Page 3 of 10 The intent of the aforementioned statutes is to protect the public safety by ensuring that those professionals that are plan checking, inspecting building construction, and making building code interpretations are experienced and qualified to do so through a certification process. Additionally, the California Building Code is updated every three- years and continuing education requirements ensure that such building professionals are up-to-date on the most current Code standards. The current Agreement calls out for a full-time Building Official, Building Inspector, and Permit Technician. City Hall over-the-counter plan check services is to be provided in the mornings between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m., and also 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. (and as requested by appointment). Additional staff is to be provided as needed to meet the demands of an increase in workload. Responses to the RFP The City received a strong response to the RFP with receipt of eleven (11) submittals.

Interwest has agreed to match the low bidder rate of 47% for both plan check and building permit revenues. Interviews and Staff's Recommendation Staff invited the four low responsive bidding firms for an interview and specifically requested that the proposed staffing for Rosemead attend. It was evident that all four firms demonstrated the minimum experience and capacity to provide building and safety functions as requested. As such, the interviews were focused to ensure that the proposed staff for Rosemead were credentialed, qualified and would work well with city staff and departments. The questions asked included among others: 1. Please briefly introduce your firm, and specifically describe in more detail the proposed city hall staffing personnel. City Council Meeting May 8,2018 Page 8 of 10 2. Please talk about the firm's staffing resources. If the,firm's Rosemead assigned staff take leave (sick, vacation or other), does the firm have staffing resources to provide replacement staffing without interruption? if the City request replacement of an assigned staff; would the firm have the ability to immediately provide a replacement? 3. Please describe your proposed compensation structure. 4. Situation Question: The city frequently deals with unpermitted structures. How would you address the matter and what would he the steps for finding a solution (unpermitted addition to a single family home)? CONCLUSION Although all four firms interviewed and responded well to the questions, it is staff's recommendation that retaining Interwest Consulting Group as Rosemead's consultant for Building and Safety Division function would be the best course of action for the City at this time for the following reasons: • Interwest exhibited the most understanding and experience in providing the full and all- inclusive services required by Rosemead. Interwest provides similar full service contracts to the cities of Pomona, Lake Forest, and Eastvale. The reference checks were positive with comments that included, "no public complaint," "responsive with staff change needs," "great customer service," "service was so good that (we) never hired full- time staff." • The firm retains adequate company resources to augment increases in workload with additional city hall staff as needed. Interwest understood the City's all-inclusive percentage compensation fee schedule structure and that an increase in workload would require a greater number of plan checks and permit issuance. The increase in workload would also generate an increase in revenue which would provide compensation for additional staffing that would be needed to ensure that the Building and Safety Division runs efficiently. Reference checks confirmed that Interwest has been responsive to staffing needs. • Interwest retains certified professional staffing to comply with the State's Health and Safety Code's requirement for Certified Building Official, Certified Plan Checker, and Certified Building Inspector, and certifications for the proposed Rosemead staff are confirmed. Interwest also listed the firm's staffing resources and their licenses and certification numbers on pages 18 to 20 in the proposal. • Interwest demonstrated a strong partnership philosophy and commitment of providing Rosemead with a high level of service as part of the all-inclusive fee structure. Staff was City Council Meeting May 8,2018 Page 9 of 10 also impressed with Interwest's proposed city hall staffing personnel, and believe that Interwest staff would work well with city hall staff and the City's customers. • the firm is also actively involved in community and civic programs for cities that it serves. Interwest has worked with local high schools in offering an internship program to introduce students to the building profession. Interwest hires about 12 students annually. The firm also provides college scholarships and has awarded between 150 to 200 scholarships in the past 5 to 7 years. Additionally, lnterwest has supported community events such as parades and other recreational events. STAFF RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Council authorize the City Manager and the Community Development Director to finalize negotiations with lnterwest Consulting Group for Building and Safety Division Services pursuant to the Request for Proposal No. 2018-06 at service fee not to exceed 47% for building plan check and 47% for building permit of net revenues, and for the City Manager to execute a Professional Service Agreement for a term of three (3) years with two (2) one-year options. FISCAL IMPACT The Building and Safety Professional Service Agreement fee is offset from building plan check and building permit revenues. As proposed, the proposed fee is 47% of the building plan check and 47% of building permit net revenues. Since the current Agreement fee structure is 55% of plan check and 60% of building permit revenues, the proposed Agreement would yield a cost savings to the City. STRATEGIC PLAN IMPACT None.

By utilizing Adobe Acrobat, our plan reviewers can quickly and accurately review plans for compliance with applicable codes. Plans are submitted as PDF files via a secure and confidential FTP site. These plans are then reviewed by our staff who are able to place comments and redlines directly on the plans, corresponding to areas needing revisions. Redlined plans with comments are then forwarded to, or placed on the secure FTP site for the designers, engineers, and architects. The City also has access to the FTP site. Plans can then be revised and resubmitted via the same method described. If all items were resolved, hard copy plans are sent to BVNA for approval stamps and signatures. These stamped and signed approved drawings are sent to the jurisdiction for permitting. Electronic plan submittal and commenting allows for economical movement of plans and quick turnaround, eliminating shipping time and costs. Using Adobe Acrobat software, electronic plans with comments can be viewed and discussed with tenant, designer, and plans examiner as needed to resolve issues quickly and efficiently. We have successfully used a digital solution to plan review for over 60 federal, state, and local agencies. This program was used to provide expedite review of the tenant improvements for the Westfield Galleria at Roseville, who needed nearly 250,000 square feet of damaged space to be renovated with limited time. PICK UP AND DELIVERY BVNA assumes responsibility for the pickup and return of plans. All plans shall be picked up from the City offices within 24 hours of notification. Should the volume of work be sufficient, we propose to establish regular pick up of plans on a consistent basis. We will also utilize shipping courier, at no additional cost to the City. Upon completion of each plan review, we will forward a copy of the correction list to the City and the applicant, by mail.

CIVIL PLAN REVIEW SERVICES As a result of our extensive experience providing development review and processing services to public agencies, we have been able to evaluate those qualities which are essential to providing effective review services. As an initial step, our professional staff familiarizes themselves with all city, state, and federal requirements applicable to the project before beginning a review. Requirements for civil infrastructure originate from multiple sources including statutory requirements, local ordinances and design guidelines, federal requirements including ADA and NPDES, state requirements including Title 24, and the requirements of any affected utilities, districts, or agencies. ■ Civil infrastructure and site plans are reviewed for conformance to the following quality standards: of Ilk • Greenbook • Geotechnical Report recommendations v a " • Conditions of Approval of the use permit or Tentative Map 7;i-2.. • Municipal Code and local ordinances BUREAU I �� VERITAS • Jurisdiction's design guidelines and standard plans and specifi- cations www.us.bureauveritas.com • ADA and Title 24 accessibility standards ts-MsnejorwardwithConfidence • NPDES C.3 requirements when applicable • Environmental mitigation requirements • Requirements of affected outside agencies and utility districts 0 Our professional plan reviewers will provide a comprehensive assessment of the conformance of submitted improvement plans to these quality standards.

Ideally, the review process involves no more than two plan submittals, perhaps three under extraordinary circumstances. To achieve this, it is important for the plan reviewer to see the "big picture" during the approval process, and to expedite the review, while assuring adherence to all City standards and requirements. At the completion of each review, comments noting any deficiencies are prepared for the Applicant. Review comments may be distributed by the City staff, or directly to the Applicant by BVNA, depending on the City's preference. Copies of review letters are always forwarded to the City for its records and files. Our customary practice is to provide comments in narrative form in a memorandum. We find this method to be more precise than just marking the submittal alone. Additionally, this method facilitates the transmission and preservation of comments in electronic format. WHY CHOOSE BUREAU VERITAS? Knowledge and Expertise Certified by the International Code Council and licensed by applicable state agencies, BVNA plans examiners and engineers are proficient in the application of design and testing standards and have participated in the development of design standards on many different levels. BVNA inspection staff is also certified by the International Code Council and many are multi-disciplined. Having a multi-disciplined inspector ensures consistent inspections by the same inspector for all trades. Multi-disciplined inspectors also provide the construction teams with a single point of contact throughout the duration of the project. Reputation BVNA has become the leader in construction code compliance services throughout the United States. The growth of BVNA's construction code compliance division is the result of repeat clients and client referrals. -711.1 _ - . - -�4 it i.r .

Understanding of Scope of Services COORDINATION BVNA prides itself on our positive and transparent relationships with all - of our clients. Our building and safety team will work closely with City of Rosemead staff throughout projects to ensure that plans meet minimum code requirements. We believe in a partnership approach to achieving compliance goals. As an independent third party compliance partner, we will verify instead of direct project staff and work with stakeholders 1, to develop effective solutions to issues. Should any project have outstanding issues after either the initial check or rechecks, your staff will be notified as soon as possible. Support the established culture throughout the City and community Community character is conveyed by not only grand buildings and public spaces but a whole range of elements: residences of all sizes and scale; commercial, government, and institutional buildings; street cross-sections; street furniture and graphics; public places, large and small; ceremonial buildings; informal activities such as street markets and fairs; and the food, language, and personalities that contribute to a community's narrative. In an effort to adopt the spirit and proud nature of the Community, BVNA employees are encouraged to regularly support and participate in local activities and events. We will strive to preserve and enhance the local identity, uniqueness, and culture of Rosemead and community. The BVNA team will adopt the policies, processes and procedures for the Building Division that reinforce the underlying philosophy and vision. Promote information sharing and collaborative work between all City staff and Contractors When you have multiple groups with differing views, resources, and skills applying their intelligence and strength to manage a community, the results can be impressive. They can figure out ways to garner the necessary skills, funds, and time to solve community problems and improve human services. But it requires people who are well-organized, cooperative, and aligned by a common mission. The BVNA team puts aside the narrow interests of its own organization and gives priority to the broader common good of the larger community. By networking, coordinating, cooperating, and collaborating, the BVNA. team works with all City staff, stakeholders, and organizations to accomplish common goals each entity can't achieve on their own. Maintain established business hours and provide appropriate staff to perform the requested services BVNA recognizes it is responsible for conducting business during the established business days and hours, except when the Government facility is closed due to observed federal holidays, local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government directed facility closings. We will, at all times, maintain an adequate workforce for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined for the building and safety services. Earn the trust of the public We understand that for our services to truly be effective, we must earn the trust of the public. In order to earn their trust we incorporate strict policies regarding customer service. Our staff will: • Maintain a courteous demeanor • Be empathetic to the needs of the customers • Strive to go above and beyond with each and every customer • Meet commitments and appointments • Return phone calls and emails quickly and efficiently • Acknowledge mistakes and make corrections without hesitation �'U VpA i + v WORKING TOGETHER 14 ,a2e.

When corrected plans are resubmitted, the previous procedure will be followed or the applicant may schedule an office visit to go over any corrections in person. When plans are completed they are stamped, signed and forwarded by BVNA staff. Our transmittal forms are customized for use unique to the City. CARE PROGRAM - A PROVEN, FORMALIZED & INTEGRATED PLAN REVIEW PROCESS Our CARE Program. a formalized and integrated process whereby Coordination, Analytical, Review, and Expert management/quality control functions are consistently implemented. This system's success is based on thousands of hours of practical experience by our dedicated personnel and their unique ability to interact quickly and efficiently with your staff. BVNA provides you with a staff extension that will bind the varying interests of your operations, the citizens you serve, and legal and regulatory considerations into a dynamic, flexible working system. The specific roles of each of our CARE elements include: Coordinator: Our clerical staff will handle various administrative functions, such as logging information (project tracking, time budgeting), managing project controls, maintaining and distributing communications, reviewing agendas and ordinance issues, and fielding calls on project status. The Coordinator is the first line of contact for each project submittal. Analyst: Our analysts will review submittals, title sheets, and non-design items; maintain files; monitor due dates; monitor contract budget and status tracking reports; and coordinate invoicing. Our analysts also maximize and "right place" staff resources to meet turnaround times in a quality manner. When assigning resubmittals to staff, our Analyst ensures consistency by passing the project to the same reviewer that performed the previous reviews. Reassignments are done when unforeseen circumstances dictate. Reviewer: Our experienced plan reviewers will routinely review agency standards, ordinances,guidelines, and checklists; create comments letters; coordinate project return with the coordinator; attend review meetings; and communicate questions/solutions to project stakeholders. Because of our depth of resources and project tools (checklists, corrections letters, etc), reassigned projects can be reviewed without missing deadlines or causing unnecessary rechecks.

Understanding of Scope of Services Work Performance BVNA has built long-term partnerships with agencies. We understand that accuracy, efficiency, and integrity in all aspects of professional services are required. Testimony to our professional excellence is the fact that we have provided services to many of our municipal clients since their incorporation. Because of our large pool of accessible resources we are able to assemble experienced personnel in order to help with project schedule recovery when necessary. Our team will maintain efficient turnaround times on all reviews as a key measurement of our performance for our plan review services. At your request, BVNA can provide plan review activities on a fast-track basis. Turnaround times for each submittal will relate to the size and nature of the project and its impact on the construction schedule. To reduce turnaround times for plan review, we can use electronic submittals, phased submittals, conference calling, and videoconferencing. The following schedule is representative of the review times associated with the type of construction you can anticipate.

Our plan checkers will schedule meetings during work hours to discuss and clarify plan check issues with designers, owners and contractors. Resolutions of code issues are accomplished by telephone, email, or meetings prior to resubmitting corrected plans and documents. For example,we meet almost on a monthly basis with various Edison teams of architects on their many projects, the latest of which is the pedestrian bridge over Walnut Grove connecting the GO 1 and GO 3 buildings. Willdan's plan check staff will often meet with City staff, architects, developers and homeowners prior to plan resubmittal,to discuss any issues arising from the first review comments and to address code compliance concerns or questions. These meetings help to expedite plan review rechecks and move toward timely plan approvals. In addition, Willdan's Building Official, Mr. Michael Zabala, will continue to provide daily over-the-counter plan review. As a part of our customer-focused approach, Mr. Zabala is also our lead in the pre-development review of projects.

Our inspectors are ICC certified and fully experienced to perform residential, commercial and industrial inspections for compliance to the approved plans and related documents. The inspections will be performed in accordance with the City's adopted version of the Los Angeles County Building laws, which includes the California Building Code, California Residential Code, Green Building Standards Code, California Mechanical Code, California Plumbing Code, California Electrical Code, and the State and Federal regulations for Accessibility, Noise and Energy Conservation, California Fire Code and provisions of Title 19 and NFPA. Inspection staff is available to meet with City staff, builders, developers, and citizens to provide assistance and resolve any inspection issues that may arise. Inspectors attend and participate in required meetings with other City staff, property owners, contractors and/or design professionals. Inspectors review the permit package to verify that the on-site condition is consistent with the appropriate records for square footage, setbacks, heights, and other requirements that may be applicable. Inspectors comply with the City's procedures for reporting inspection results, use City inspection correction forms, make appropriate entries onto the permit documents, and follow City procedures prior to finalizing a building permit. Willdan has both designed and provided all of the City of Rosemead plan check, permit and inspection forms. We were also instrumental in the design of modifications to the HDL permit issuance system to specifically meet the needs of the City of Rosemead. Willdan verifies that all inspection records, including daily records of inspected projects, which will be recorded on the job card,with a permit copy entered into the City's Building and Safety HDL system. We will employ such techniques as necessary to minimize delays to builders and provide helpful advice and counsel to builders, owners, engineers and architects as to enhance the orderly flow of the construction process, while maintaining an effective level of enforcement. Inspectors ensure that any construction changes are documented and approved by appropriate City planning and/or public works staff. Our inspection staff is trained to look for compliance with both City planning and public works requirements and advise the permitees of possible non-compliance and report those non-compliance issues to the appropriate City department. We strenuously avoid the "not my job" attitude of some building departments.

DISASTER RECOVERY ASSISTANCE For over two decades, Willdan has helped California recover from firestorms, floods, earthquakes and mudslides. In the midst of the turmoil, Willdan emerged to assist local communities in rebuilding their homes and their pride. Over the years, Willdan has established a reputation for its disaster recovery assistance programs. The Willdan team is ready to assist by providing efficient means of reviewing and approving building permit applications, and providing prompt construction inspection for affected property owners.We understand that most city and county staff are hard pressed to maintain normal services while assisting residents impacted by a major disaster. Perhaps one of the most unique aspects of Willdan's disaster recovery assistance is the establishment of"one-stop permit centers," which virtually guarantee fast-track plan checking and inspection services. Funding for many of these projects is provided by the FEMA and the Office of Emergency Services (OES). Specifically,Willdan has assisted communities recover from the following disasters: • Northridge Earthquake • Loma Prieta Earthquake • Whittier Narrows Earthquake • Berkeley Tunnel Firestorm • Malibu Flood • Malibu-Topanga Firestorm • Oakland Firestorm • Calabasas Flood In the case of the Whittier Narrows Earthquake, Willdan responded with a full team of inspectors to inspect and numerous damaged buildings in the City of Rosemead. Willdan provided technical assistance and guidance to the citizens and property owners of Rosemead in their post-earthquake rebuilding efforts. Firestorms Responding to the need for immediate clean-up in the aftermath of a firestorm,Willdan services include long-term" recovery operations. Willdan has provided assistance the 14[ very day the flames were finally extinguished. Staff can 4a ' ' F r immediately begin working on: Yr • Damage assessment • Public information for fire damage assistance •.+ -. • Street and storm drain clean-up • Removal of burned vehicles • Replacement of more than 100 storm drains • Street repairs • Replacement of destroyed bridges • Establishment and management of a city-wide debris removal program • Preparation and implementation of a near-term erosion and sediment control program WWILLDAN City of Rosemead Engineering Building and Safety Services Page X22 City of Rosemead In addition to private-property assessment, Willdan can provide initial damage assessments and cost estimates for a variety of publicly owned buildings, including public libraries, multi-family housing complexes, cemeteries and mausoleums, parking lots, pier pump stations, and treatment plant and utility lines. We are also able to offer construction management services for emergency repair, such as: • Conducting site inspections for damage and safety assessment • Engineering evaluations • Recommending repair methods • Reviewing and writing specifications • Preparing cost estimates, change orders, and requests for qualifications • Reviewing bids Floods Winter storms caused a considerable amount of damage to a 1 I (� variety of infrastructure facilities. Willdan was retained to provide flood recovery services, responsible for assessing " public facility damage, preparing bid documents for repair fi + work and let contracts.The work required close coordination q �� with FEMA and OES officials for reimbursements. Past work involving these agencies has included: • Preparation of Exhibit B for types of damage project repairs • Filing the Notice of Intent (N01) • Field reviews with OES field inspectors • Preparation of Damage Survey Report(DSR) description and cost information • Preparation of a hazard mitigation program for OES review and approval • Final OES and FEMA walk-through and project approval Earthquakes Willdan coordinated with FEMA and the OES officials for " • ''•' j .+- reimbursement of earthquake fees. Additionally, Willdan �,• provided over-the-counter plan checking services and permit - issuance for privately owned commercial and residential properties. Perhaps the most unique aspect of Willdan's �± disaster recovery assistance was the establishment of a "one- , stop permit center," where planning and zoning approval, as well as building and safety permits, were issued the same day directly over the counter. This service by Willdan was essential to the City of Rosemead's response and recovery from the 1987 Whittier Narrows Earthquake. cW I LLDAN City of Rosemead Engineering Building and Safety Services Page X23 City of Rosemead APPENDIX • Resumes • Exceptions to City Contract • Sample Certificate of Insurance WWI LLDAN City of Rosemead Engineering Building and Safety Services City of Rosemead JAMES M.

B.4 TRANSITION FROM CURRENT CONSULTANT Transtech has completed several similar service transitions, and will be able to minimize any inconveniences. We do not see a need for an extensive overlapping work period with the current consultant. Our staff has done similar transitions before, and can handle any open issues left from the current consultant. The "overlapping work period" would only increase the City's cost on staff time. Our expectation is to review the project files and address status of current/open plan checks and projects and priority issues for transition. Upon this review and de-briefing from the current contractor,the Transtech team will immediately assume the positions to maintain and improve the current status of the assigned responsibilities. Plan Check Transition: If the current consultant has already started the plan check for a project, the City would have 2 options: Option 1: Allow current consultant to complete the plan check; or Option 2: The new consultant completes the plan check with an hourly fee. After the review of status of current open plan checks, we will advise the City with an appropriate option accordingly.

Entitlement Process and Planning Department Collaboration OBJECTIVE:To identify potential constructability and code issues that may arise before the completed design package is submitted for plan review. a. The City assigns the project and sends Transtech the plans for comments and conditions of approval for review. The goal is to identify potential issues for code compliance to ensure plan review process is streamlined and kept on schedule. This step is helpful for large and complex projects to eliminate unnecessary delays during the plan review process. Anytime potential issues are found during this phase, Transtech staff meets with the City staff and the applicant face to face to assist them in mitigating potential issues or resolve conflicts before the entitlement is processed. b. Transtech Building staff always recommends early and ongoing meetings with the designer for large and complex projects to discuss the road map to success for permit issuance. 2. Permit Application and Plans Submittal to City OBJECTIVE:To initiate the proposed project and verify the application for completeness. a. The applicant files the permit application and submits their plans to the City b. Plans are received by Transtech's Plan Management Division c. At this point the plans are logged into the Transtech Plan Management Tracking System (TPMTS) to categorize them by date submitted, projected project turnaround time, date returned to the city, plan check ID number, street address, type of plan check, and status. 3. Plan Review by Transtech Plan Check Staff OBJECTIVE:To assist the applicant in complying with all required codes as efficiently as possible within the least amount of plan checks based on the agreed upon turn around time between the City and Transtech. a. Transtech's Plan Management Division assigns the plan review to a Transtech ICC Certified Plans Examiners. PROPOSAL FOR CITY BUILDING DIVISION SERVICES(RFP NO.2018-06) TRANSTECH C.EXPERIENCE&QUALIFICATIONS C.3 b. Initial Plan Review:The assigned Transtech ICC Certified Plans Examiners reviews the plans. i. If the plans are in compliance, the plans are delivered back to the City as approved and the Permit Technician verifies that approvals have been obtained from all other required city departments and agencies. ii. If there are corrections,the Transtech ICC Certified Plans Examiner develops a plan check list of corrections. These corrections are typed on a customized city specific Plan Check Correction List which has the permit applicant contact information as well as the plan examiner's contact information including their phone number and email address.This allows the applicant to contact the Plans Examiner anytime for any questions they may have. In addition, the actual plans are red marked to assist the applicant in identifying the required corrections. iii. As part of the plan review,the Transtech Plans Examiner attaches an agency referral checklist which explains which other agency's or city department's approvals are necessary for permit issuance. iv. Additionally, during this plan review, the Transtech Plans Examiner confirms if the nature of corrections significantly impacts the entitlement approval, if this is the case, the Planning Department will be notified. v. The plans are sent to the City for the applicant to pick up, correct, and resubmit for review. vi. Transtech's Plan Management Division logs the status into the Transtech Plan Management Tracking System. c. Second Plan Review: i. The Transtech Plans Examiner, checks the resubmitted plans against the city specific Plan Check Correction List and red marks to ensure all corrections were addressed appropriately. 1. If all corrections have been addressed,the plans are delivered back to the City as approved and the Permit Technician verifies that approvals have been obtained from all other required city departments and agencies. This means the plan review process has been completed within the objectives of two plan checks. 2. If there are still outstanding corrections the Transtech Plans Examiner will prepare a Second Plan Check Correction List highlighting the areas that need to be corrected and providing additional guidance for compliance. The plans are delivered back to the City for the applicant to pick up, correct, and resubmit for review. ii. Transtech's Plan Management Division logs the status into the Transtech Plan Management Tracking System. d. Any Subsequent Plan Reviews: i. If all corrections have been addressed, the plans are delivered back to the City as approved and the Permit Technician verifies that approvals have been obtained from all other required city departments and agencies. ii. If there are still outstanding corrections that have not been addressed, the Transtech Plans Examiner will prepare a Plan Check Correction List highlighting the areas that still need to be corrected. The Transtech Plans Examiner will provide addition guidance to the applicant recommending them to either come in during the over the counter plan check hours, or to contact us to schedule a meeting over the phone or in person to go over the items in detail to A PROPOSAL FOR CITY BUILDING DIVISION SERVICES(RFP NO.2018-06) Albr ' % TRANSTECI! C.EXPERIENCE&QUALIFICATIONS C.4 avoid further corrections,and ensuring the applicant understands the nature of the items that need to be addressed. This extra step is to eliminate unnecessary delays during the plan review process. 1. It is very often that during this time all outstanding items are addressed, and the plans are sent back to the City approved and the Permit Technician verifies that approvals have been obtained from all other required city departments and agencies. iii. Transtech's Plan Management Division logs the status into the Transtech Plan Management Tracking System. 4. Permit Issuance OBJECTIVE: To document that the plans have been approved, fees have been paid, and construction can begin. a. Once the final plans are approved by the building department and all other agency and city departments,the permit is issued. b. The applicant is given an Inspection Record Job Card,which identifies the required inspections and approvals. c. At this point the applicant may begin construction. It is the applicant's responsibility to call and schedule inspections per the Inspection Record Job Card as the construction progresses. 5. Construction Start, Inspection Requests, and Inspection OBJECTIVE: To ensure the construction is built per the approved plans in code compliance. a. Transtech's ICC Certified Inspectors verify that the work done is in compliance with the codes and approved plans. Inspection is provided the next business day if called prior to the cut off time. 6. Project Completion, Final Inspection, and Permit Sign Off a. OBJECTIVE:To verify the project is complete and all required inspections have been performed. b. Transtech's ICC Certified Inspectors verify that all required inspections per the Inspection Record Job Card has been completed and all applicable city department approvals have been obtained. c. Transtech Building Staff files the permit at the City as final and the project is closed. C.3 EXPERIENCE IN WORKING IN A MIXED STAFF/CONSULTANT ENVIRONMENT Coordination: Transtech has extensive experience working in a mixed staff/consultant environment, below are the methods we utilized to ensure a close and positive working relationship with City Staff. At Transtech, we firmly believe that no matter public or private, smart organizations' goal is to enhance the performance of their people. When we refer to "people" we mean any individual who participates in carrying out the business of the organization. This could be internal staff and/or consultants/vendors. In today's knowledge work economy, people are the engine that keep organizations growing, adapting, improving and innovating. Not surprisingly,thoughtful mixed work environment design can be a powerful tool for supporting performance. Transtech Engineers, being who they are, `engineers' knowing equations and formulas; believe that: PERFORMANCE = ABILITY X MOTIVATION X OPPORTUNITY PROPOSAL FOR CITY BUILDING DIVISION SERVICES(RFP NO.2018-06) iF;?, - TRANSTECI C.EXPERIENCE&QUALIFICATIONS C.5 Ability, Motivation and Opportunity cannot come to fruition without fostering teamwork and team building. This has been Transtech's key to success in any organization we have been engaged with,as well as that of our own internal. Every member of our own team has a unique background. Some had been in key/senior public official positions for long time who intimately understand the dynamics of public sector's mixed work environments and dire need of fostering team building environment. Transtech's first and foremost role in such environment would be that of taking the lead to streamline processes, bring expertise and innovative solutions to the issues at hand, and willing to not only mentor but learn from any opportunity. Since the late 1980s, Transtech's long history of working in mixed staff/consultant environment, is a proven record that speaks for itself. With today's ever-growing complexities and demand for multi- discipline expertise becoming more apparent, Transtech success relies on team building, recognizing abilities, motivating the talents and creating opportunities. Throughout the region, approximately 20 agencies, each with very unique organizational structure have enjoyed their partnership with Transtech in enhancing their people's performance. We consider our staff as extension of City staff, and work in the same structure and hierarchy as other City staff. We coordinate and interact with various in-house City staff members just as another City staff member as part of the City Team.

Recheck Procedure: Plans returned for second and/or third reviews are immediately given to the original plan reviewer. The benefits of assigning re-checks to the original plan reviewer are twofold: 1) their familiarity with the project saves time in approving corrections, and 2) this helps expedite the review process for applicants. 5. Approval Process: When plans are found to show general compliance with the applicable building codes they are stamped with a "Reviewed by Consultant for Code Compliance" stamp and returned with a transmittal letter. 6. Applicable Building Codes: In accordance with state law, VCA will perform plan checking with the California Code of Regulations Title 24, Parts 1 through 12, along with all City ordinances applicable at the time of submittal. Any additional requirements provided by the City will also be incorporated into the plan review process so that the process is as seamless as possible. 7.

CAA's Certified Building Officials have assisted jurisdictions in achieving high Insured Services Office (ISO) ratings. The ISO assesses each community on a scale of 1 to 10 with regards to the administration and enforcement of the building codes and mitigation of losses from natural hazards. In 2014, CAA received a company rating of"2" by ISO for all of our California Cities.

We have extensive systems in place to prepare detailed monthly, quarterly, and annual reports of our activities to the City. The reports include, but are not limited to, staffing levels provided, staff hours expended, the number of plans reviewed, number of inspections performed, and other financial, operational, and statistical information pertinent to the services provided. In addition, CAA offers to provide a standard version of our own Automated Permit Issuing System at no extra cost for building inspections, plan review and permitting. Modifications beyond our standard system requested by the City or additional users will be provided at an addition cost. CAA is an industry leader in cross-training employees in order to streamline the inspection process. Each inspector is able to perform multiple inspections, which is both cost effective to the City and simplifies the process for contractors, causing less wait times for inspections to be approved. We are devoted to keeping our certified and licensed staff up-to-date on the latest practice, techniques and skills in their areas of specialization. Our approach to training is ongoing and not just occasional, assuring clients of work that is in full compliance to current standards.
