PLAN REVIEW Our plan review procedures allow designers to conference with all plan review disciplines in person, via e-mail, fax, overnight mail, teleconferencing, and web conferencing. EsGil receives plans from the City or directly from the applicant by mail, courier, via electronic transmission, or on physical media such as a compact disc or thumb drive, decreasing the time delays and costs associated with shipping plans. When required, EsGil uses the City's electronic plan review platform to perform electronic plan reviews. Our process has been designed not only the City's convenience, but also for designers and permit applicants. PLAN REVIEW PKUC ESS Receive application Follow-up on and plans t status of review Only corrective comments ; on resubmittals Pre -construction meeting, if necessary Distribution of plans to Comments consolidated Pre -submittal meetings, appropriate contacts into one plan review when requested provided by clients rigure 7 EsGil s plan review process has proven successful foi the City over the past 13 years When EsGil receives plans, they are reviewed for completeness and logged into our network tracking system within 24 hours of receipt. Target times and maximum completion times are assigned for each plan review discipline. This information is transferred to a plan check assignment list with completion deadlines as listed in the contract. The best -qualified reviewers are chosen based on the requirements and complexity of the plan review, including specialists for architectural, structural, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, energy compliance, accessibility and fire/life safety. When required, a Structural Engineer performs plan check on structural plans and calculations. During the review, all disciplines work as a team on each project. A supervisor oversees all reviews, consults with staff and City staff as needed, and performs spot checks for quality control. The reviewers first perform an overview of the project, and then use our copyrighted checklists to focus on the areas of concern. We use tailored supplemental checklists for the City. As our plan review engineers follow the checklists for their reviews, they add to, or modify, any item on the checklist at their workstation, then print out a list showing only those items where deficiencies were found on the plans. Our checklists are user-friendly and well -received by the design industry. Once the review is completed, our administrative staff contact the listed applicant to advise them on the status. Project data from the plan review is inputted into the City's permitting software whenever requested. Copies of the corrections are then sent to the applicant and jurisdiction via e-mail, fax, or USPS mail. Resubmitted plans are submitted directly to the City, or shipped or delivered directly to our office. Upon final review and approval, two sets of the approved plans are stamped, perforated, or sent as -is, back to the City Building Department. Our administrative staff review all plans returned to the City for completeness of forms, and tracks all fees for billing per the contract. v Esrail A SAFEbw[CCompany MAKING A DIFFERENCE WHERE YOU NEED US 13 RFP On -Call Building Plan Review and Inspection Seivices I City of La Quinta. CA As you know, our staff provides flexibility when managing workloads. During peak workloads, we only work with contractual clients —a current total of 47 in California. As a result, we have never missed agreed upon review times. When necessary, we assign overtime to allow our plan review staff to meet those timeframes, at no cost to the jurisdiction.

Our staff is flexible, efficient and can quickly respond to the City's needs. We are committed to working with City staff and designers to ensure the building health and safety of the community as a whole, making the regulatory process understandable, user-friendly, and reasonable. Our goal is to issue approved plans as quickly as possible, while remaining fully compliant with all applicable state and local laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations. Since EsGil's inception, our only product is services to Building Inspection Departments and government agencies. By specializing in this type of business, we believe that our service levels, professional quality of reviews and reasonable costs cannot be matched. By limiting our clients to government entities only and performing no design work, any conflict of interest by performing services for developer clients or other private interests is avoided. Our systems, administrative staff capabilities and our depth of engineering experience have continued to evolve and improve over the years. Our team approach to plan review, using specialized engineer disciplines and computer network systems has resulted in consistent service levels and professional quality of reviews that have been well received by our clients.
