One of Willdan's first con- tracts was to provide contract staffing to Dairy Valley — now the City of Cerritos. Uniquely, Willdan provides contract staffing to public agen- cies, providing a cost-effective alternative to employing full-time staff. This service is provided through on -call, in- terim, and long-term staff support and is utilized by public agencies to provide technical expertise on a project -by -pro- ject basis, relieve peak workload situations, or fill vacant positions during a job search. Willdan personnel, many of whom have served in positions with public agencies, can serve as City staff engineers, building officials, plans exam- iners, inspectors, planning directors, case planners, public works directors, or project managers. Having served, not only as staff with public agencies but also as contract staff through Willdan, our personnel have a clear understanding of the challenges facing public agencies. They focus on matching practical solutions with the budgetary and politi- cal requirements of individual public agencies. The diversity of our staff's experience is an added value of our professional services. Combining the strength of our lo- cal personnel with experts nationwide, Willdan offers prac- tical solutions that are timely and cost-effective and meet the needs of individual communities. Whether it is a simple concern about a right-of-way permit or a complex series of questions regarding municipal services and infrastructure capacities, Willdan has the diversity to address it all. On -Call Contract Expertise Willdan advantages include: • On -call and staff augmentation have been the cornerstone of Willdan's business for over 54 years • Full -service capabilities offer specialists in desired services with minimal use of subconsultants • Delivers the combination of experienced, hands-on skills, and perspective that ensures the City receives high -quality service at the least cost On -call engineering services are Willdan's foundation. Our staff includes former public agency employees or contract agency staff. Therefore, we understand the importance and purpose of on -call contracts and are very familiar with the processes and procedures for such services. Within the last seven years, Willdan has completed projects and task or- ders for more than 200 as-needed/on-call contracts. This experience and the relevant experience of our dedicated and available key personnel are what best suits Willdan to provide the City with on -call services. Our history of working with on -call contracts has well pre- pared our staff to respond to all requests for services in a positive, efficient manner. Our firm's commitment to re- sponsive service and successful project delivery has given us a reputation as a firm that can be trusted to listen and to deliver a product our clients envision and embrace. We begin our approach by adhering to these principles: • Approach each project with a spirit of resourcefulness and excellence • Maintain high standards of technical quality • Seek appropriate solutions that fit the project • Conduct business with truthfulness and high ethical standards Willdan understands the unique aspect of working under an on -call contract. Success in working with this type of contract is dependent upon understanding a variety of ele- ments that may be encountered, such as. Short project durations and minimal lead times for as- signments may be required Flexibility in service assignments, understanding work to date, and coordinating completion of project tasks already started by agency staff in crucial Availability of our staff to the work assignment as it de- velops is often critical to moving that project forward Efficient use of resources is important for project as- signments that are relatively small Consistent, organized project management is a vital due to the potentially large numbers of projects that may be in process Special attention to quality assurance and quality con- trol is particularly important as short-term projects may limit the number of interim review steps often as- sociated with a project -specific contract Governmental Agency Expertise Local Agency Willdan has extensive experience working with various gov- ernment agencies due to our public agency services focus and participation as members of various city and county committees involved in nearly all public agency activities. We are thoroughly familiar with regulations pertaining to many of the federal, state, county, and local funding pro- grams. We have worked extensively for and with: Comprehensive. Innovative.

As a firm with a strong public agency orientation, many of our client relationships are longterm and ones in which our staff develops intimate familiarity with City processes as we very often serve as an extension of City staff and it is ex- tremely important that our presence on each assignment is seamless. Willdan's fundamental goal is to provide the City of La Quinta with the highest level of support in completing requested services. This requires close personal coordina- tion between Willdan and City staff that will be provided through interactive meetings throughout the course of each project to ensure all issues are addressed. Our approach is to fully understand each project requested by the City, review each project in detail with the City, agree on the course or extent of action best suited, and proceed accordingly. Having successfully completed many other assignments of this type, Willdan understands City processes and the technical and communication skills that are vital to ensuring each project receives the necessary at- tention, objectives are met, project schedules are adhered to, and each project stays within budget. To accomplish this, each assignment is led by a senior staff member with strong project management skills who is spe- cifically selected for the assignment based upon the antici- pated project needs, geographical area, and anticipated work environment. In doing this, Willdan is confident that Proposal for On -Call Traffic Engineer Consultant Services 13 City of La Quinta A the selected project manager and team will fit the assign- ment, have good communication among team members and City staff, and be consistent in work efforts and prod- ucts. This approach promotes good teamwork and ensures that deliverables are completed on time and within budget. In addition, Willdan's team keeps abreast of technological advances that enhance our services. Electronic tablets used out in the field for various aspects of a project, including — but not limited to data collection with GIS or GoPro cam- eras for field surveys — enable our team to minimize field trips which results in project savings for our clients. Technical Approach Upon commencement of this assignment, Willdan's Principal -in -Charge, Ms. Vanessa Munoz, and Traffic Engi- neer, Mr. Steve Libring, will meet with City staff to discuss the project assignment in more detail and establish the specific days and hours of service to the City. It is antici- pated Mr. Libring will be available to the City on an as - needed basis up to 32 hours per week. Based upon the City's needs, the routine hours at the City for Mr. Libring are flexible and can be adjusted as work levels and tasks fluctuate or as budgetary considerations arise. Mr. Libring's approach to the assignment will depend largely upon the City's specific needs at any given time; however, he will generally start each day with a review of ongoing work efforts, new work efforts assigned, and dis- cussions with City staff. Since he is accustomed to City Traf- fic Engineer assignments, many of these efforts will be self - directed, except when given general or specific direction from the City, as deemed appropriate. While at the City, work efforts, such as development re- view, traffic study preparation and management, and City Planning Commission and Public Safety Commission meet- ings preparation, Mr. Libring will work closely with City staff to coordinate specific tasks and provide appropriate input when needed. He will make necessary contacts with private developers, other public agencies, and other City depart- ments on an as -needed basis. To more fully understand all issues relating to specific projects, Mr. Libring will research available records at the City, make field reviews as appro- priate, and hold discussions with City staff. At the end of each day, he will review the events of the day, schedule any remaining needed efforts by City staff, and establish a preliminary list of efforts for the next regularly scheduled day at the City. From time to time, the traffic engineering duties may re- quire Mr. Libring to be contacted while not at the City. In such cases, he will routinely check for messages — both at the City and at Willdan to keep current with ongoing issues Nh/ Comprehensive. Innovative. Trusted. and formulate and deliver timely responses. This may re- quire Mr. Libring to coordinate with or assign work efforts to City or Willdan staff. Whenever feasible, Mr. Libring will be available for direct communication while on other as- signments.

City -Provided Information, Documentation, and/or Staff Assistance Based upon our project understanding, we anticipate that some project assignments will require information to be provided by the City. The following list is just an example of information that may be necessary to complete the project assignment. Traffic and/or pedestrian counts Reported collision history As -built plans for roadways, traffic signals, signing and striping, etc. Traffic signal timing plans Sample format for City staff reports and traffic ordi- nances and resolutions Resource Management Staffing and Resource Management Plan Willdan is completely committed to providing the staffing and resources required to complete projects under this bench contract on schedule and with high quality. To en - Comprehensive. Innovative. Trusted. Proposal for On -Call Traffic Engineer Consultant Services 16 City of La Quinta sure we meet this commitment, we prepare labor projec- tions for all projects. Projections are made for each individ- ual project and then aggregated by the technical director to produce division/office-wide labor needs and to identify shortages or surplus. Labor planning for this contract will be done on an individu- alized basis. Ms. Munoz will identify the staff required to complete each awarded project and calculate the hours. This data will be input into our project staffing needs plan on a weekly basis. For activities that do not require a specific person (i.e., draftsperson, tech aide, word processing, etc.), this esti- mate will be done on a position basis. Project staffing as- signments will match the experience of personnel with the degree of project complexity. Because resources are often shared for any given project, our project managers are very involved in our staff workload projections. Subconsultant Management Plan One of Willdan's advantages over most of our competitors is that we offer nearly all the services described in the City's Request for Proposal through our in-house experts and technicians. We do not need to hire and manage as many subconsultants as other firms do. However, we understand the City's may have individual task assignment goals for small and disadvantaged business enterprises. Willdan has made a commitment to teaming with disadvantaged, mi- nority, women, and disabled veteran businesses whenever possible. We always strive to meet or exceed the goals set by our client agencies. We maintain a subconsultant data- base that is utilized to fill DBE needs. For this on -call contract, Willdan has teamed with Counts Unlimited, Inc. (CUI) to perform data collection, including turning movement counts, machine counts, speed survey data, vehicle classification data, and any data collection necessary for specific traffic engineering analyses. All activities related to the administration of the subcon- sultant agreement will be managed by Ms. Munoz, our pro- posed Principal -in -Charge. She will review CUI's progress on a weekly basis and include CUI's work in quality control re- views. Project Controls Willdan's project control system is designed to provide a coordinated effort between all task facets of a project in the framework of the pre -established master schedule, budget controls, and reporting system. The project control system provides an objective measure of performance — integrating: SSS • ff.7 Iro + _ + El +r�5 +=101 Manhour Budget Master Progress Quality Breakdown Control Schedule Reporting Assurance Structure System Control and Control System Manhour Breakdown Structure The manhour breakdown structure subdivides the work into manageable segments and is the Iro basis for our project managers' project control plan. The work breakdown structure is tailored to specific project needs, but generally has typical ele- ments, including codes to identify work segments and engi- neering disciplines, weekly reports, and project resources schedule. To monitor labor costs, each person performing work on a project completes a weekly timecard that identifies the project, segment of work, and engineering discipline by code. Man-hour summary reports are developed weekly from the timecards and are issued to our project manager for review. Each project manager then updates the sched- ule. This simple system provides accountability for Will- dan's payroll, billings, and progress reporting and serves as the basis for all cost -related project management data. Cost Control The budget control system is prepared in ac- cordance with the work breakdown structure. The budget becomes the control against which performance is measured. The budget is time phased by combining project master scheduling data with budget data. Actual costs are compared with budgeted costs and variances analyzed. Deviations between planned and actual cost can then be evaluated to forecast and con- trol future work. Beginning with electronic timekeeping, project hours are assigned to the appropriate tasks and subtasks and booked as work -in -process. Pre -bill reports are generated that 110/ Comprehensive. Innovative. Trusted Proposal for On -Call Traffic Engineer Consultant Services 17 City of La Quinta identify the hours to be billed along with any other direct charges to the project. This is the information used to de- termine each month's invoicing. Once hours and charges are billed, they are shifted from Work -in -Process to Ac- counts Receivable to ensure that billed hours are inacti- vated. Monitoring is easily accomplished through team member progress updates and comparisons between the scope of work, schedule, and budget. Schedule Control A critical path method master schedule will be prepared following the notice to proceed. The schedule will identify major items of work and will be the vehicle for monitoring, controlling, and tracking progress. The schedule will be updated monthly to reflect actual and forecasted completions. This allows our project managers to anticipate and forecast potential issues and develop an advanced strategy to proactively mitigate prob- lems before they impact the schedule. If it is determined that a project is falling behind schedule, project managers meet with the respective team members, identify the problem, and ensure that extra support and ef- fort are expended to bring the project back on schedule. Willdan will keep City staff informed of the overall sched- ule, including advanced notification of any necessary ad- justments or actions to remain on track. Project managers monitor all progress on a weekly basis Progress Reporting 0 The submittal requirements and format for con sistent monthly reporting of project costs and status will be confirmed with the City during project start-up. The status report will contain a project performance summary, action items, outstanding items to be resolved, an updated schedule, and a compari- son and narrative of budgeted costs versus actual costs. Quality Assurance and Control Quality assurance and control procedures are Ucritical to ensuring sound engineering practices and quality deliverables are produced for our cli- ents. Project -specific quality assurance/control activities will be planned at the beginning of each awarded task as- signment. Typical quality assurance/control activities in- clude assigning the appropriate technical staff to the pro- ject, selecting the proper project technical approach, estab- lishing a project schedule that meets City and internal Will - clan deadlines, and determining the proper level of quality assurance/control review. These project deliverables re- view levels are: "Comprehensive. Innovative.
