Statement of Qualifications
Our Past
Founded by Werner Von Siemens (pictured right) in 1847, Siemens has
become a global powerhouse in electronics and electrical engineering,
operating in the industry, energy and healthcare sectors. Siemens AG
(Berlin and Munich) entered the traffic industry market in 1924 with the
implementation of the first signal system with red, yellow and green in
Berlin, Germany. Innovation continued when Siemens introduced the
first centrally controlled light signal system in 1926 and a tradition of
developing ground-breaking technology in the traffic industry began.
With its many years of presence in the world markets, Siemens Traffic
Solutions possesses extensive international know-how and proven
technical platforms in the areas of traffic management and guidance.
Siemens entered the US transportation market in 1995 through the acquisition of two industry leaders in the
United States; Eagle Traffic Control Products and Gardner Transportation Systems. In 2010 Siemens acquired
Republic ITS, a U.S. leader in traffic signal and street light maintenance services in order to enhance its presence in
the intelligent traffic solutions (ITS) market in the USA. With these business acquisitions, along with our extensive
dealer network, Siemens Intelligent Traffic Solutions (ITS) business unit has the ability to solve traffic problems
throughout the country and around the world.
Our Present
Siemens currently services over 10,000 traffic signalized intersections and 400,000 streetlights under long-term
maintenance agreements nationwide. We are dedicated to meeting and exceeding the challenging public safety
requirements associated with our industry. Siemens has been in the traffic signal maintenance industry worldwide
for over 50 years. Locally, Siemens (formerly Republic ITS & Signal Maintenance, Inc.) has been in business for over
40 years servicing numerous contracts throughout the state of California. Currently, in California alone Siemens
maintains intersections for over 115 agencies encompassing over 4,000 locations of various sizes from full
function intersections to in-pavement flashing crosswalks and rapid flashing beacons.
Our Future
At Siemens, we are always looking to the future and for our ITS division, the future is bright. With infrastructure
improvement being the focus for many municipal governments these days, it is imperative that Siemens stays on
the cutting edge of technology in order to remain relevant. Whether the agency is looking for connected vehicle,
smart street lighting solutions, service/ support contracting, ITS software and controllers or complete
infrastructure management, Siemens is constantly evolving the industry. We look to the future with the foresight
that can only be gained through 170 years of experience and more importantly, we aim to shape it.

Request for Proposals: On-Call Traffic Signal Repair Services Submitted August 5th, 2019
Understanding and Approach
Our Understanding
It is always the goal of Siemens ITS to hone our service around a Customer’s needs. We understand that
throughout the term of a contract of this type, those needs may change. We approach all of our contracts with the
same simple vision; build a partnership with the City’s staff and work towards achieving common goals set forth
through that partnership. We realize that this is an ever evolving
process and that is why we believe that the only successful route is
through establishing these common goals. This methodology and a
commitment to service will be applied to every aspect of our services
for the City of La Quinta.
We understand that the general scope of the work to be done
consists of providing on-call traffic signal repair services of
malfunctioning or damaged traffic signal system equipment. Siemens
will have available and readily accessible qualified personnel, all
required tools, equipment, apparatus, facilities, and material and will
perform all work necessary to maintain in good workmanlike manner,
all City owned traffic signals, as outlined in the Scope of Work and in
compliance with current City and State Standards.
Siemens will provide a 24-hour, 7 days a week call service for
knockdowns and other traffic signal system related emergencies. All
Siemens technicians are supplied with proper field equipment at all
times so he/she may sufficiently address any problem with a traffic
signal as well as have continuous communication access through
cellular phone.
Siemens will keep a sufficient stock of common replacement
components of a typical traffic signal system. The replacement component types, quantities and storage location
will be adequate to meet the Emergency and Non-emergency service response time requirements.
Our Approach
Emergency response call outs and unscheduled/non-emergency repairs are initiated by calling our toll free
emergency phone number 1-800-229-6090 (this will be a live dispatcher 24 hours a day, 7 days a week), report
the traffic signal location, the problem, and leave your call back information. Our dispatcher will create a work
order in our visual planning board. Once the work order is released by our dispatcher it will immediately transfer
to our technicians queue on their android device. As part of our quality control practice, our dispatcher will follow
up with a phone call to our technician to confirm that he/she is in receipt of the call out/work order. The
technician will arrive at the site within the contracted response time to assess and correct the reported problem.
Once the problem is corrected, the technician will inform the Customer of the repair actions.
Throughout the term of this agreement, Siemens will provide and maintain emergency service response on a
twenty-four (24) hour, three-hundred and sixty-five (365) day basis, including all holidays. All personnel for
Siemens that may be dispatched will have continuous communication access through cellular phone. The
response time for emergency calls will not exceed two (2) hours. In cases of major malfunction or damage,
Siemens will contact the Public Works Department to receive further direction.
City of La Quinta Page 15 of 27
Request for Proposals: On-Call Traffic Signal Repair Services Submitted August 5th, 2019
Siemens will be responsible for responding to emergency calls from persons designated by the City. Unless
otherwise identified in this Scope of Work or the Agreement, responsive calls will be paid on a time and materials
basis.
There was no reference to response time for non-emergency repairs (i.e. new controllers, cabinets, signals,
luminaries, and most necessary ancillary devices). All non-emergency calls will be responded to as mutually agreed
upon between the City and Siemens.
Upon completion of responsive service requests (both Emergency and Non-Emergency), Siemens will notify the
Public Works Department that the work has been completed. Notification will be within twenty-four (24) hours of
said completion to both the City personnel initiating the emergency call-out and the City’s contract manager.
Upgrades and Installations
Although the City retains the right to perform any work on its’ traffic signal system by use of City forces, by
negotiated contract with a separate contractor of the City’s choosing, or by advertising such work for public bid,
Siemens is able and definitely willing to provide these construction services for new installations of traffic signal
poles and modifications and/or upgrades to existing traffic signals. This work can be performed within an
appropriate timeframe established by the City and for a mutually agreed upon price.
Communication and Teamwork
At Siemens, we are your partner. Our project management team as well as our field personnel will be constantly
communicating with the City representatives and we will follow all communication/notification requirements as
set forth and agreed upon. Routine monthly meetings will be key to ensure that everyone is on the same page,
not only for traffic signal status but to make sure that we are on track with the City’s budget and that we are
serving the citizens of the City of La Quinta to the highest level possible.
Siemens employees working for the City will be equipped with any necessary communication devices in order to
keep our City liaison(s) informed at all times. Currently, all of our staff is outfitted with an Android device that will
enable them to send, and receive real-time information as well as text, email and phone capabilities.
Vehicles, Equipment & Resources
Siemens will have available and readily
accessible all required tools, equipment,
apparatus, facilities, skilled labor services and
materials to perform all work necessary to
maintain the traffic signals and equipment in a
workmanlike manner. All bucket trucks are
equipped with spare parts sufficient to return a
defective traffic signal to operation following all
ordinary and most extraordinary trouble calls.
Our technicians will have on-hand, any
necessary equipment to maintain operable
traffic signals within the City of La Quinta.
Our warehouse and field technicians that will
support the City of La Quinta will be
permanently stationed in our Riverside facility,
which is located 74 miles from La Quinta’s City
Hall.
City of La Quinta Page 16 of 27
Request for Proposals: On-Call Traffic Signal Repair Services Submitted August 5th, 2019
Siemens owns and operates approximately 100 service vehicles of various types and sizes in the State of California.
The bulk of which are located in Southern California. All technicians are assigned vehicles which are taken home
daily in order to ensure rapid response in case of emergency. To help ensure safety, Siemens uses hydraulic
bucket trucks with aerial lifts which are OSHA approved, inspected and certified as required by law. All drivers are
trained through the Sentry Program for Insulated Devices. In addition to bucket trucks, Siemens also owns many
construction vehicles, towable arrow boards, towable air compressors, towable changeable message signs, Bobcat
with auger & backhoe attachments, all required hand tools, and many other items for maintenance and
construction. The list below shows our Southern California fleet and its respective proximity to the city of La
Quinta.

Request for Proposals: On-Call Traffic Signal Repair Services Submitted August 5th, 2019
Reporting and Record Keeping
Invoices
Siemens will provide invoices on a monthly basis. Invoices will be submitted each month and will include a
summary of all response costs. All costs will be broken down into each category of labor, material and equipment
used.
Detailed Billing/ Activity Reports
In addition to our Customer Portal, the City will receive a detailed billing report on or before the 15th day for the
prior month. Each work order will include the description, response, caller information, and the labor, equipment
and materials billed for each location.
Material Inventory
Siemens maintains an extensive inventory of traffic signal and
streetlight equipment including controllers, cabinets, load switches,
signal heads, poles, LED indications, luminaries (HPS, MH, MV LPS and
LED), service enclosures, controller cabinets and other miscellaneous
parts. This extensive inventory combined with our vast experience and
testing facilities enable Siemens to repair or replace damaged
equipment expeditiously and professionally.
Siemens employees will be equipped with all spare parts necessary to
place a traffic signal system back in operation for all trouble calls.
Siemens will notify the City if any equipment was removed and replaced
with approved spare equipment. Inventory levels will be maintained
and periodically checked to ensure we have a sufficient supply of
inventory to keep the city’s traffic signal system fully functioning.
City of La Quinta Page 18 of 27
Request for Proposals: On-Call Traffic Signal Repair Services Submitted August 5th, 2019
Customer Portal (Traffic Signal / Street Light Service Management System)
Another form of communication is our web-based management system where our technicians transmit all service
information in real time. This is included with all of our Maintenance offerings at no additional charge.
The Siemens Customer Service Portal allows customers to:
• Asset map, incl. Google Street View application
• Real-time status of service request calls
• History per functional location
• Overall historical maintenance and repair data
• Real-time equipment inventories, maps, event
reporting, photos, etc.
Siemens recognizes that speed, efficiency, and comprehensive service are the keys to customer satisfaction in our
industry. With this in mind, we are constantly seeking innovative ways to improve our service delivery. We have
developed an in-house suite of applications that represent what we believe to be the forefront of customer
account management and maintenance tracking in our industry.
Siemens utilizes a proprietary management system that we refer to as mCompanion. This software is used to
dispatch work orders and to track the progress of all work. Our technicians are now transmitting service response
items (preventative maintenance, emergency calls, scheduled extraordinary repairs, etc.) in real-time back to our
traffic signal/street light maintenance and management system using a handheld device. This allows our
customers to view all work orders in real time through our Customer Portal. This software also allows us to
monitor many key performance items such as time arrived onsite, time of completion, materials used, and
vehicle/equipment used. This information is then pulled into our internal processing system which features a
secure web portal that the City can access in order to obtain progress on technician work for call outs and
maintenance activities as well as a list of assets, asset map, real-time status of scheduled maintenance and service
request calls, history per functional location, real-time equipment inventories, maps and event reporting as well as
digital photographs of equipment. Detailed training of our management system is available anytime.
