Experience and Technical Approach Calvada Surveying, Inc understands that the City of La Quinta is seeking land survey consultants to provide As Needed Land Surveying and Mappng, Calvada Surveying, Inc is a full services land survey company, and has worked on all aspects of the scope of work listed in the RFQ. Below is more detail of what land survey services Calvada Surveying, Inc. can provide. Based on our review of the RFQ, there are no constraints that would prohibit Calvada Surveying, Inc from providing and performing on the potential land survey scope of work. - Right of Way Mapping - Preparing Legal Descriptions - Base Mapping - Horizontal/Vertical Controls Surveys - Centerline Ties Pre- and Post -Construction - Monument Perpetuation - Benchmark Establishment - Design Surveys Topographic/Aerial Surveys - Construction Staking - `As -built' Surveys Calvada Surveying, Inc. can offer a complete all -in -one solution, understanding that this is a As Needed RFQ, Calvada's general approach to completing any project(s) under the Request for Proposal introduction and our proposed work plan for any proposed scope of work could be detailed in the following steps or items and will be accomplished as follows: Evaluation, Planning and Preparation for Surveying: Once Calvada receives a P0, our first step is to analyze the project needs. Survey Services: Calvada will request the primary survey control to be used for this project from the County based on the project limits and purpose. If there is no pre -established primary control, then Calvada will use GPS and conventional methods to set the primary control along with any secondary control. The materials and data provided from the County if any, will become the basis for project control planning to create a survey control network for the project. Upon receipt of Notice to Proceed (NTP), Calvada will request that the County submit all permit applications to perform survey work within the project limits, if necessary. The survey procedures will meet Third Order Accuracy Standards, as specified by "Caltrans Orders of Survey Accuracy Standards for Supplemental Project Control", in accordance with the Caltrans Survey Manual or will use any other standards as directed by the County. Horizontal datum for the control will be the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) (California Coordinate System of 1983, Zone V 2010.00 epoch or as appropriate). Vertical datum will be the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) County Survey Benchmarks. All for this project will be completed in the US Survey Foot unit of measurement. Performing Field Surveys Boundary Lines, Topography and Existing Facilities and/or Structures: Calvada will perform the necessary research and surveying to establish the existing street alignments, centerline control, benchmark elevations, existing right-of-way limits & property lines and identification of existing planimetric features. Calvada Surveying will complete this task after all due diligence has been completed. This includes research of all APN maps, recorded survey maps/plats and city/county/Caltrans monumentation records within the limits of the project. We understand that this task includes surveys and mapping work for Project Report. It also includes necessary control surveys, preliminary design data surveys and photogrammetric GCPs to be set as well as preliminary property boundary assessments, determination of status of existing ROW and its grid positioning, and associated land net mapping. Conventional surveying is assumed to be required for these projects. Our crews will mobilize and using the pre- established networks or by establishing new survey networks and will establish supplemental control along the project limits. The supplemental control will then be used to survey at 50' intervals to create 1 -foot contour intervals and at all break line locations. The crew will survey the Curb, Gutter, Lip, the crown and the slopes along the shoulder up to the existing ROW or back of walk or end of project limits. This will give the design team accurate survey measurements. Conventional foot surveys will also be performed at overcrossing bridges. The survey information will be collected at 10' intervals along the bridges and will include items such as the bridge joints, structural columns and all features along any bridge underpass to create complete Topographical surveys, where needed. Minimal traffic control will be provided by Calvada Surveying. All surface utilities will also be surveyed.. Other survey features may include spot elevations at the back of walk/sidewalks, top of curbs, flow lines, gutter edges, street crowns, high/low points, grade breaks, driveway aprons and handicap ramps, buildings, fences, all developed features, locations of signing and striping within the site, location of trees over 6 feet in height, regardless of caliper, dipping of all sewer & storm drain inverts and catch basin inverts within the site and various features as needed by the design team. The Surveys performed by Calvada will conform to the requirements of the Land Surveyors Act. We will have this work under the direction of Armando DuPont, a Licensed Land Surveyor, in the State of California. Calvada designates Ramon Gonzalez as the Senior Project Manager who will coordinate the consultant's field surveying operations and Saul Melgarejo Jr. as the Project Manager who will be responsible for all matters related to the Calvada's office operations and will coordinate with all City officials as needed. The field survey crews shall be mobilized to recon City/County Monuments along with any City/County benchmarks. Preparation of Right -of -Way Maps: For Right -of -Way mapping, Calvada will review assessor map(s) of the project area and subsequently attend coordination meetings with City staff and right-of-way acquisition agents, as needed. The final survey for design will show the record Right of Ways and property lines. This map will be prepared with the use of recovered centerline/property monumentation along with the record maps showing the boundaries of the right of ways/property lines within the project limits. Right of way maps may also show the parcels, areas, type of estates and adjoining streets with ties to centerlines. All mapping is prepared in AutoCAD .dwg format (Civil3D 2018). Preparation of and setting -up photogrammetric Surveys: Our first step is to analyze the project needs. At this time, we have not determined the locations of the GCPs/aerial targets, if any. Calvada will mobilize to the field and will use the pre -established primary control to set the aerial targets. Once the targets have been placed, we will use our survey equipment to collect the position data of each target. The data will be analyzed in the office and the correct adjustments will be made. The final data will then be delivered as a text file & CAD file. A target layout plan will be a part of the final deliverable. Performing Quality Assurance Work Associated with Various Types of Land Surveying Work: Calvada provides quality assurance/quality control for all aspects of the project, including detailed checking of work by in-house staff. At Calvada, the leadership of our quality management practice falls to our Project Managers. We are careful to say leadership and not ownership because every team member owns the responsibility for quality. We are focused on development of a quality work product, with an emphasis on safety in all respects, from project inception through closeout. This focus is ensured by the continuous improvements to the Calvada Safety and Quality Plans, with regular employee training. The purpose of our program is to improve the efficiency and accuracy of our production process, prevent errors, and establish consistency and quality. It is also intended to assist new staff in the area of professional development. As a result, our program is continually being reviewed and refined to ensure we deliver the best results for our clients. Our QA/QC program details the requirements, organizational structure, roles and responsibilities, quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) activities and is regularly modified to include specific requirements of specialized programs. Most importantly, we ensure that our QA/QC program meets or exceeds the standards of our clients. Calvada requires that each employee complete QA/QC specific training as part of their 90 -day training process. One of the most essential components of our QA/QC training is familiarization training pertaining to established client specifications and needs. Through this training, employees learn the processes required to deliver quality products to specific clients and associated partners. This familiarization ensures our team understands all required Client processes to assure continued high performance of the final deliverables. During the course of a project, our PM is responsible to ensure that each deliverable undergoes a series of QC reviews before it is delivered to the Client in order to ensure the original scope has been captured, a cohesive package has been created, and errors and inconsistencies are eliminated. DTM surface quality control: Once a DTM file has been created, then we submit the surface file to one of our staff members for a quality control review to assure that contours generated match surface features in the entire project accurately. The final files from Calvada will then be delivered to Zephyr so they can update the "master file" and update the aerial survey. CAD editing: In this process our drafters combine the DTM contours file with the planimetric features file and edit it as needed to create the finished product which will be submitted to the client. Project completion and submittal: After files are completely edited, we will review them one more time before packaging in client's requested format. We look forward to serving you on this RFQ EAST COUNTY PURIFICATION ECAWP-PACKAGE # 4 PROJECT San Diego, CA Overall Scope of Work/Brief Description of the services provided: Mr. Melgarejo was the Project Manager for the aerial and topographic survey of 9 mi of recycled water pipeline. The survey was used as the base map for the future design of a regional brine line. The scope of work was performed using a combination of aerial photogrammetry and conventional surveying methods. The topo provided 1- foot contours and spot elevations at 50 -foot intervals. All above -ground utilities were located by means of a ground survey. The existing right-of-ways and adjacent lot lines were plotted from available public record information. The final deliverable was a PDF file and a CAD Civil 3D drawing file which included a 3D surface that was used by the engineering team to assist in their design.

We understand the critical need for a complete and accurate scope, budget and schedule at the start to prevent cost overruns and delays and our internal control systems are organized to address those factors continuously and proactively identify and respond to any variances. For larger, more complicated tasks these factors will be further divided using a Work Breakdown Structure with each activity having its own scope, budget and schedule. When assigned to an individual, that person becomes responsible for successful completion under the supervision of the project manager who will use the approach developed at Calvada to closely monitor progress of all aspects of the task. Calvada uses a 3 -prong approach to management— scope, budget and schedule. We recognize that the three factors interact constantly and must all be addressed simultaneously and continuously for success. Also that communications are critical to effective coordination of all aspects of a project into a seamless design and maintain client confidence. Scope Every Calvada project starts with a project management plan that includes the contract scope of work, overall budget and project schedule. When applicable, the project management plan divides the overall project into smaller parts using a Work Breakdown Structure. Each task then has a scope, budget and schedule assigned and the linkages between tasks clearly identified. When an individual is assigned a task, the person receives the scope, budget and schedule for that work and is expected to meet those criteria. The project manager oversees everyone on the project and does informal daily reviews of each task to confirm the scope is being performed with nothing more or less than the agreed upon. Budget The project manager receives a weekly report of all costs incurred on the project including Calvada labor, expenses and invoices received. These are checked against the planned costs to identify any variances. All variances (both negative and positive) are then investigated to determine the cause and effect of each one. If a problem or bad trend is determined to be present, a work around strategy is developed. Possible actions include overtime, added staff, change in staff, use of senior staff for improved efficiency and other methods. The weekly reports on cost will then show the impact of the work around strategy and identify if additional actions are needed. Schedule As with the budget, when applicable the overall schedule will be divided per the Work Breakdown Structure. The budget status typically links to the schedule status so those reports often trigger schedule related actions. However, the informal visits by the project manager to each teammate has proven the most effective method for schedule tracking. For schedule variances, the same approach described above under Budget is used to keep the project on track. Communications From the president down to the most junior project manager, each leader is outside of their office frequently overseeing their assigned staff, reviewing progress, answering questions and providing direction. Depending on the size and complexity of the project, this approach may be augmented by formal team meetings that typically include active subconsultants. Client communications are typically directed to/from the project manager as the primary point of contact. Examples include monthly progress reports with schedule updates and invoices, progress meetings with client staff and more informal phone calls and emails as appropriate. After discussion between Calvada and the client, it may be decided that some senior technical staff from each party can communicate directly with these contacts documented by follow-up emails copied to the Calvada project manager. The progress reporting protocol for each assignment is established at the start based on discussions between client and Calvada staff. Intent is to make sure the client is confident that Calvada is satisfying their needs. The reporting is often a combination of methods and very dependent on the schedule and critical milestones. These range from twice per day informal phone calls for expedited assignments to monthly formal reporting in conjunction with invoicing. Calvada will adjust to fit your needs. Calvada has worked with many different funding sources during the history of our firm and have been successful in dealing with the various requirements. We have experienced staff who are familiar with many of the funding mechanisms that are available to the City. Calvada has a detailed Safety Plan that complies with Federal and State OSHA requirements and is reviewed with field staff periodically to refresh their memories on critical items. Depending on the particular situation, our field crews often hold daily tailgate briefings at the site to familiarize everyone with the location, constraints and hazards. Office staff is also provided a copy of the Safety Plan so they can reference it when applicable. Calvada is proud of our safety record.
