2. PROPOSED STAFFING AND PROJECT ORGANIZATION
Kimley-Horn's Approach to On -Call Contracts
On -call contracts require a different approach from project -specific contracts. Each task assigned under an on -call contract requires an
individualized approach that includes the various disciplines necessary to complete the assignment.
Jean B. Fares, P.E., will be the primary contact for the City, providing overall management and day-to-day coordination for Kimley-Horn's
on -call services. Jean will be supported by a team of experienced engineers and a subconsultant specialist. To assure responsiveness to
the City's needs, Kimley-Horn uses a workload forecasting technique to determine staff availability, known as our cast -ahead process, to
determine resource requirements by division, office, and region. Our division and regional managers then shift resources and workloads
as needed to meet all demand -supply needs. This cast -ahead process enables us to assign ample staff and technical resources to
complete each project on time and to our clients' satisfaction.
Subconsultant
Kimley-Horn has specifically selected Newport Traffic Studies (NTS) to provide count data collection services for this On -Call. NTS
has been a key partner to us for data collection services on numerous projects where they have performed these services on multiple
tasks. We recognize the value of relationships as significant contributors to a quality project and are proud of our strong relationships and
history of successful projects with this firm.
NTS is more than just another traffic count company, it is a traffic data consultant performing all types of traffic studies needed by both
government and private sectors. Since its inception in 1979, NTS has surveyed well over a billion vehicles for over 200 clients and that
number continues to grow. Surveys vary from the basic machine counts to hand counting, radar surveys, classification, license plate and
parking surveys and other special studies on request.

Quality Control/Quality Assurance (QC/QA)
Our QC/QA program will include the review of project documents and supporting data by our QC/QA manager, Sri Chakravarthy, P.E., T.E.,
and key staff who will direct individual tasks. Our QC/QA program will include, but not be limited to, the following procedures:
+ The QC/QA manager will be thoroughly familiar with project requirements and will be given the authority to direct the project team and'
call upon our corporate resources, as required, to satisfy the project needs.
« An internal "kick-off" meeting will be held with key individuals assigned to the project to clearly define the scope of services, set sub -
task responsibilities, and establish the schedule.
• Project meetings and decisions will be documented by a "paper trail". All documents are supported by appropriate data that will
clearly show the choices evaluated and the basis for our recommendations.
• All supporting calculations, text, or data used to develop a document will be signed and dated by the individual involved when
the services are performed. In addition, all telephone conversations and meetings that include or affect a project decision will be
documented. Minutes of meetings will be promptly prepared and distributed to attendees for confirmation of decisions made and then
filed after appropriate corrections are made.
• Team network quality control is the day-to-day peer review that is undertaken by the project team. A team member other than the
individual preparing the document reviews all documents, analyses, and letters. The task manager for each task provides review of
significant analyses and documents. All quality control review comments will be maintained in a quality assurance file. Weekly or
bimonthly full team meetings with the task order manager enhances this network review.
• The findings will be resolved by the originator of the document and checked again until corrected. All quality control review comments
will be maintained in a quality assurance file. This network review will be enhanced by periodic full team meetings with the Project
Manager.
Culture of Quality
In addition to the project -specific quality control practices outlined above, Kimley-Horn
employs companywide practices to reinforce quality at every level within Kimley-Horn.
These practices are illustrated in the Kimley-Horn Quality Control graphic.
Z,r, fEomrull QuaifiYy this program rewards project
managers and staff members for accomplishing tasks that help improve client service.
Tasks may entail anything from creating a project distribution list or other incremental tasks
to updating a major technical manual. CQI improves our ability to serve our clients while
also integrating our clients into our quality control. This process has helped shape the way
we serve our clients through high -quality deliverables and responsiveness to client needs.
FAgineering Checks/Peer Reviews ensure that project services and deliverables,
such as final design plans, permitting, calculations, retrofitting, modeling analyses and
recommendations, reports, and cost estimates are reviewed by senior -level staff for completeness and sound engineering.
we have selected Sri Chakravarthy, P.E., T.E. as QC/QA Manager to capitalize on his 13 years of infrastructure design exper
be an extremely valuable resource for all tasks assigned to Kimley-Horn.
Kimley-Horn Quality Control
For this project
ience. Sri will
Quality Calls involve senior -level staff at Kimley-Horn making contact with City staff during and after project design to ensure
expectations regarding service and deliverables are met or exceeded.
City of LaQuinta I TRT081031.17 18 Kimley>>>Horn
Cost Control/Invoicing and Budget Management
Cost control is achieved through two independent processing systems within our MIS program that we integrate to provide a complete
financial report overview of each task as well as the entire project. The Contract Manager and task order managers receive status reports
twice a month detailing the costs associated with the project. This level of tracking allows us to control project budgets and to keep our
clients fully informed of the administrative aspects of each project.
Cost Saving and Value Engineering Strategies
The Kimley-Horn team will pursue cost saving opportunities and strive to deliver innovative technical solutions through value engineering
strategies designed to maximize the synergies of major project elements. This will entail examining risk management, right-of-way
concerns, complete streets, pedestrian, bicycle, transit, roadway, vehicle -turning templates, utility, and beautification improvements as
well as eliminating overlapping costs for items such as demolition, restoration, maintenance of traffic, and contractor mobilization. These
costs may account for up to 20 percent of the total construction budget, offering substantial opportunities for savings.
As a part of our cost estimating and value engineering process, we work closely with contractors to pinpoint project costs and redefine
construction procedures and details to minimize costs and maximize constructability. Additionally, we will work closely with utility service
providers to identify opportunities to reduce the cost of addressing overhead utilities. This approach is highly effective when combined
with a road improvement project and offers significant opportunities for the City.
Examples of our innovative and cost saving strategies include:
• Identifying federal funding sources and grants
+ Evaluating costs associated with pavement
rehabilitation methods
• Limited full -depth replacement
• Reuse of pavement materials for base materials
+ Identifying and mitigating drainage deficiencies
■ Reducing City staff "turn around" time for less cost
• Providing a cost-effective team
• Beginning utility coordination/potholing at project inception
to reduce or eliminate potential construction conflicts
+ Conducting public and stakeholder involvement in the
early stages of the project to identify key project goals
• Innovating construction staging to reduce the number
of phases and conflicts with the travelling public
• Preparing clear, legible plans supported by project details to
reduce or eliminate Requests for Information (RFIs) and
change orders
• Coordinating with Caltrans District 8 and capitalizing
on our team's experience and relationships with
key staff responsible for decision -making
Regardless of project size, Kimley-Horn provides the same attention to detail when it comes to quality by providing cost-effective designs,
developing innovative solutions, and meeting schedules.
Depending on the task, some items we would require from the City include:
• Record plans or drawings
• Boilerplate documents (i.e. specifications)
• Utility data
studies, etc.)
• Signal timing data
+ Occasional accompaniment onsite visits or walks
• Historic data collection (counts, collision history, speed surveys ■ Any City specific formatting requirements
• Previous studies or reports (master, strategic, or specific plans; • Past project bid information for costing
feasibility studies; traffic impact analyses; timing studies; utility
