SUBJECT: Consider Professional Services Agreement with FCG Consultants to
Provide Construction Management and Inspection Services for the

DISCUSSION
On October 6, 2021, the City Council approved the Plans and Specifications for the
Princeton Avenue Improvement Project and authorized staff to advertise the project to
obtain construction bids and a Request for Proposals for Construction Management and
Inspection Services. On December 1, 2021, shortly after receiving Project Authorization
from Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), a Request for Proposals was published
on the City’s website with a submission deadline on January 13, 2022. The Request for
Proposals was also published in the Ventura County Star on December 4, 2021, and
December 14, 2021.
On February 16, 2022, City Council awarded a construction contract to Security Paving
Company, Inc., and a Professional Services Agreement for Construction Administration
Services to Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., and further, fully funded the construction
phase of the project. Although the functions sound similar and overlapping,
Construction Administration Services is provided by the Project Engineer of Record and
is primarily an administrative function to support construction activities as it relates to
design documents. The selected consultant for Construction Management and
Inspection Services will be responsible for the coordination of the entire construction
phase of the project, manage project controls and schedule, ensure compliance and
conformance to the Project Plans and Specifications, provide quality control and
materials testing, serve as the lead coordinator between the general contractor and the
Engineer of Record, and ensure that all federal requirements are met for federal funding
reimbursements for participating costs.

On January 13, 2022, staff received four proposals from qualified engineering firms to
provide Construction Management and Inspection Services: Anser Advisory, LLC; FCG
Consultants Inc.; Filippin Engineering, Inc.; and MNS Engineers, Inc. A consultant
selection panel was formed to review and evaluate the technical proposals and to
interview the prospective firms. The consultant selection panel comprised of current
and former Public Works staff members who are familiar with the City’s needs,
knowledge of the project scope of work, and understand the importance of the project’s
successful completion and delivery. The proposals were evaluated based on the
requirements set forth in the Request for Proposals, project understanding, experience
working on similar projects, consultant and sub-consultant qualifications, and
understanding of Federal and State requirements on federally funded projects. Based
on the review and evaluation of the technical proposals and consultant interviews, the
final ranking for consultant selection is as follows:
1. FCG Consultants, Inc.
2. MNS Engineers, Inc.
3. Filippin Engineering, Inc.
4. Anser Advisory, LLC
FCG Consultants Inc. (FCG), and their sub-consultant team, has the experience and
expertise to provide the City with Construction Management and Inspection Services for
the Princeton Avenue Improvement Project. FCG is an engineering firm that specializes
in project and construction management on large highway improvement projects and
have a successful track record on delivering federally funded projects throughout
Southern California. The FCG team has demonstrated their project understanding and
key construction issues, understanding of the City’s needs and their roles and
responsibilities for the project, and commitment to the City for the successful completion
of the project.
Attachment 1 contains the draft professional services agreement for Construction
Management and Inspection Services. Staff is requesting City Council’s consideration
and approval of the professional services agreement with FCG Consultants, Inc. for
Construction Management and Inspection Services for the Princeton Avenue
Improvement Project.
FISCAL IMPACT
FCG Consultants, Inc. fee proposal for Construction Management and Inspection
Services is $1,455,483.65. This fee amount is approximately 10% of the construction
contract value and is within reason for a project of this scale. The City Council already
appropriated funding for the construction phase of the project on February 16, 2022, so
there is no fiscal impact from awarding this contract.

require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
3.All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or
applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the
policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to
the City or its operation limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4.None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these
requirements if they include limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been
first submitted to the City and approved in writing.
5.No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to
eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for
bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor.
6.All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification, and
additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not
make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability
or reduction of discovery period) that may affect the City’s protection without the
City’s prior written consent.
96
FCG Consultants Inc. Page 13 of 16
7.Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates
of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured
endorsement to Consultant’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to city at or
prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance
is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled or
reduced at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, the City has the
right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its
interests under this or any other Agreement and to pay the premium. Any
premium so paid by the City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant
or deducted from sums due Consultant, at the City’s option.
8.Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) days notice to
the City of any cancellation or reduction of coverage. Consultant agrees to
require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording
stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation or reduction
of coverage imposes no obligation, or that any party will “endeavor” (as opposed
to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate.
9.It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage
required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply
first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or
self-insurance available to the City.
10.Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved
with the Work who is brought onto or involved in the Work by Consultant, provide
the same minimum insurance required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to
monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring
that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this
section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors
and others engaged in the Work will be submitted to the City for review.
11.Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or
deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees
that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer, or other
entity or person in any way involved in the performance of Work contemplated by
this Agreement to self-insure its obligations to the City. If Consultant’s existing
coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-
insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time, the City shall review
options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the
deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other
solutions.
12.The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Agreement to
change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant
ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in
substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional
compensation proportional to the increased benefit to the City.
97
FCG Consultants Inc. Page 14 of 16
13.For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be
deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any
steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this
Agreement.
14.Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the
part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with an insurance
requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations to the City nor does it
waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
15.Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as the City, or its
employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to
this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled
or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until
the City executes a written statement to that effect.
16.Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring
during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other
policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has
been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter
from Consultant’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of
insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these
specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to
the City within five days of the expiration of coverage.
17.The provisions of any Workers’ Compensation or similar act will not limit the
obligations of Consultant under this Agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not
to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to the City,
its employees, officials and agents.
18.Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are
not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements nor as a
waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference
to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-
inclusive.
19.These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any
other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be
interpreted as such.
20.The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of
this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts or
impairs the provisions of this section.
98
FCG Consultants Inc. Page 15 of 16
21.Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any
party involved in any way with the Work reserves the right to charge the City or
Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this
Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to the City. It is
not the intent of the City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying
with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against the City for payment
of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
22.Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss
against Consultant arising out of the work performed under this Agreement. The
City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not
the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve the City.

SECTION 2: STATEMENT OF PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
City of Moorpark RFP for
Construction Management and Inspection Services for
Spec. No MPK 21‐03; HSIPL‐5436(018)
Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
Project Background
The City of Moorpark is requesting proposals for Construction
Management, Inspection, Materials Testing, and Contract
Administration services for the Princeton Avenue Improvement
Project (Specification No. MPK 21-03). The project will utilize
federal funds for participating costs, federal aid number HSIPL-
5436(018). The City of Moorpark is proposing to perform various
improvements on Princeton Avenue. Princeton Avenue, within
the proposed project limit, is a two-lane, east-west, arterial road
that provides the primary link for local traffic between the center
of the City and the Campus Park/Moorpark College area.
Princeton Avenue is also an alternative and bypass route to
State Highway 118, with a segment located within State right-of-
way that crosses below State Highway 118. The adjacent land
uses along Princeton Avenue include residential neighborhoods, light industrial, retail/commercial, and office business parks. In
general, the roadway within the project limit is characterized by a reverse curve with two vehicle travel lanes, a limited unpaved
shoulder area, and an unimproved pedestrian path along the southside. There are several single-family residential homes that take
access directly from Princeton Avenue The proposed scope of work consists of the reconstruction of approximately 3,600 feet of
Princeton Avenue, between east of Spring Road and Condor Drive. The proposed improvements include retaining wall structures,
screen walls, graded slopes, and storm drainage facilities to accommodate the widening of Princeton Avenue for 8-foot bike lanes,
12-foot vehicle travel lanes (one in each direction), 14-foot left-turn lane, and pedestrian sidewalks.
Technical Understanding
The FCG Team includes former Caltrans engineers who are highly qualified to provide the scope of services required for the Project.
Based upon the duties and responsibilities stated in the RFP, we are providing this work plan to manage the city’ construction Project.
Although the plans do not include staging plans, the FCG Team believes the best way to construct this project shall be as follows:
Stage 1 - Westbound Princeton Avenue
a.Striping and Traffic Control – The project consists of
removal of the existing striping and portions of existing
asphalt and drainage improvements. As detailed in TCP
option 1, the approach the Contractor shall take, is to make
the south side of Princeton, the first phase of work. The
point to this is to get the south side improvements complete
and get the pedestrian traffic onto these new
improvements. The Contractor could then focus on the
north side of Princeton and gear up for the retaining walls
and other improvements. The FCG Team will coordinate all
efforts with the City, Caltrans and the Contractor to ensure
full compliance to requirements of MUTCD, WATCH
Manual, and project specifications.
b.Grading – The project consists of existing roadway
removal. The removals consist of existing asphalt and
concrete along with curb, gutter and sidewalk. There are
20K CYS of cut/fill with 10K CYS of export. The Plans also
call for 12.5K tons of C.A.B along with 7100 tons of A/C and
400 tons of Rubberized A/C.
c.Drainage / Waterline Improvements – The project consists of the installation of a new RCP storm drain systems from 18”
to 42” diameter pipe. Other storm drain improvements consist of Inlets, collars, headwalls, manholes, catch basins, junction
structures and wall gutters. There are approximately 3,220 LF of new waterline, which includes new fire hydrants, water service
reconnections, blow offs and air vac valves. Landscape irrigation is also part of the Contract. The FCG team will conduct a
utility meeting to ensure compliance to requirements set forth and collaboration by all utility companies and the Contractor.

City of Moorpark RFP for
Construction Management and Inspection Services for
Spec. No MPK 21‐03; HSIPL‐5436(018)
Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
SECTION 2: STATEMENT OF PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
d. Civil Improvements – The project consists of removal of
existing concrete and asphalt, curb, metal beam guard rail,
fencing, ret. wall, bollards, signage and steel framework.
Most of the removals will be replaced with new items of
work. New A/C and rubberized A/C, concrete curbs, new
signage and striping, new driveways and curb ramps. The
driveways and ramps shall always remain open to
pedestrians. The FCG Team have extensive experience
with construction of such facilities and will make sure the
Contractor lays out the work in advance to meet all
pertinent requirements especially ADA requirements. In
addition, the FCG Team will coordinate proper materials
sampling and testing of soil, concrete, and asphalt work to
ensure quality of materials used for the project.
e. Electrical – The project consists of installation of new
traffic rated boxes and Cobra lighting fixtures. There are
also new power poles to be coordinated with SCE. The
FCG Team has extensive experience working with all
relevant electrical work and will ensure the Contractor
adheres to all required guidelines.
f. Landscape – The project consists of installation of a new
irrigation system with mainline and lateral piping, valves,
flow sensors and bubblers; The inspection of the irrigation
system is to be coordinated with the City’s landscape
representative. Landscaping consists of ivy, vines, bushes and lilacs. The FCG Team has extensive experience with such work
and Mr. Fuentes, our proposed Landscape Architect/Inspector will ensure compliance of all requirements for all work including
inspection of plant materials at the nurseries.
g. Structural Components – The FCG team provides Dragan Buha, PE, Structure Representative, as a lead for any structure
related submittals, RFI’s, change order requests and related items. Dragan has over 30 years of construction management
experience and he has worked on the SR-23/SR-118 Connector project completed in the early 90s and inspected the
construction of the structural work on this segment including the Arroyo Simi Bridges and Princeton Ave. Undercrossing Bridges.
Dragan has experience in all aspects of bridge and retaining wall construction under Caltrans and Greenbook standards and
will provide his services on this project only when required. Field inspection work will be done by the on-site roadway/bridge
inspector and Special Inspector and Material Testers (when needed). Any unusual geotechnical conditions observed will be
brought up to the Designer and Geotech Engineer of Record in order to verify that they are acceptable.
First order of work for our team is to review the project plans and specification, record any ambiguities that may require
clarifications and discuss these items with the designer. We also review background information that would help us better
understand designs constraints, permits, overall requirements and most important stakeholders’ involvement.
Structural work on this project includes several retaining walls (RW) to be constructed in order to accommodate roadway
widening. The project specific RW are labeled as “Type 1” to “Type 8” and they consist of CMU block stem walls supported on
cast in place (CIP) spread footings while the Type 9 RW consists entirely of an cast-in-place concrete stem wall supported on
24-inch Cast in Drilled Hole (CIDH) reinforced concrete piles with pile cap foundation. Based on the information provided in soils
report, we still need to clarify with the designer if any over excavation under the spread footings is required and to which depth.
Before starting the RW work, the contractor must provide submittals for materials to be used in the work for approval
(reinforcement, concrete, CMU blocks, mortar, grout, joint fillers), as well as specify methods of construction to be used. The
FCG Team together with the Engineer of Record (EOR) will review and approve all submittals before the work can start.
Contractor is required to positively identify all utilities before excavation for the foundations (Dig-Alert marked utilities), as well
as any existing/future drainage in potential conflict with the new foundations. Typical cross sections show that the existing slopes
could be laid back at 1:1 ratio, which in turn indicates that no shoring will be required. If any temporary shoring is required

City of Moorpark RFP for
Construction Management and Inspection Services for
Spec. No MPK 21‐03; HSIPL‐5436(018)
Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
SECTION 2: STATEMENT OF PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
selected contractor will have to provide shoring design submittal for review and approval. Once each wall is staked by the
contractor’s surveyor, FCG Team will review staking notes and discuss wall transitions with the contractor to make sure all
stakes are clearly marked and in accordance with the project plans.
Once the RW foundation excavation start, inspector and material tester will verify elevation quantities and track them daily, test
compaction and verify depth of aggregate base under the foundation (if any specified). Excavation must be always protected,
and adequate signing placed for safety of pedestrians and motorist. Reinforcing steel placement and footing dimensions are
verified before the concrete is placed (we will also confirm that the approved concrete mix is used) and tested for quality
assurance. Placement of additional reinforcement, masonry blocks with mortar, grouting will be monitored daily and testing of
mortar and grout is performed at specified intervals for quality control. All tests are logged and tracked in project files; any failed
tests require correction before the work is approved.
Construction of CIDH piles (as part of the foundation for CIP concrete EW) require drilling 24-inch diameter holes, verification
that holes are plumb within tolerance with no caving and of adequate depth, inspection of reinforced steel cage with spacers
before it is placed in the ground and placement of approved concrete mix. Soils reports indicate presence of sandy soil which
will require use of temporary casing during placement of concrete. In case that the groundwater is encountered (several borings
indicate presence of groundwater), the contractor must propose the method of construction for review and approval (casing and
dewatering or wet placement method). Concrete placed under wet placement method (if needed), requires gamma/gamma
testing for verification of soundness of placed concrete.
Given the number of retaining walls, as well as the number of different types of RW, we will ensure that the proper type of wall
is being constructed on the correct location and the segment of the wall. Several of the RW on the project consist of multiple
transition withing short distances between different types that have different reinforcement and even block size. One such
example is Retaining Wall “B” which transitions between five different Types of RWs. Another example is Retaining Wall “A”
which consists of four different Types of RWs that transition between different types in distances as short as 9 feet. FCG
inspection staff will always have required detailed specific information from project plans onsite and discuss the details with the
contractor in order to avoid any errors or misunderstandings. Significant portion of the work on this project (walls “G” and “J”)
include installations of over 300 24-inch CIDH piles. According to the local geology of the area and likelihood of existence of
shallow bedrock, there is a potential that a significant amount of CIDH piles could potentially encounter bedrock prior to 50-foot
embedment, which according to the contract plans will require a 15-foot rock socket drilling and embedment in bedrock. We will
discuss this with the contractor at the preconstruction meeting and request that they have adequate drilling equipment on site
to avoid potential delays. These piles are spaced at 6-foot intervals (3 pile diameter) and the contractor will have to consider
pile placing sequence in their workplan in addition to proposed methods of installation.
Retaining Walls - This project contains an extensive number of retaining walls to be constructed. After reviewing the provided
plans, we understand there are 8 retaining walls that total a combined length of approximately 0.85 miles and consist of 9
different project specific retaining wall types. The project specific retaining walls are labeled Type 1 to 8 which consist of CMU
block stem walls supported on CIP spread footings with the 9th type of retaining wall consisting entirely of an CIP stem wall
supported on 24-inch CIDH piles. These nine different types of retaining walls are not Caltrans Standard Specification “Type”
of walls, but rather project specific.
Given the number of retaining walls as well as the number of types of retaining walls, one challenge will be to ensure that the
proper Type of wall is being constructed on the correct retaining wall. Several of the retaining walls on the project consist of
multiple types which transition within short distances back and forth between different types. One such example is Retaining
Wall “B” which transitions between 5 different Types of retaining walls. Another example is Retaining Wall “A” which consists
of 4 different Types of retaining walls that transition between different Types in distances as small as 9 feet.
To ensure the proper Type of wall is constructed, our structures staff will tabulate every top of wall and top of footing stated on
the contract plans, review them prior to each work shift, and bring to the attention of the Structure Representative any
discrepancy that is encountered so the contractor does not get to far in construction if a potential correction is necessary. This
level of proactiveness is the core of minimizing schedule impacts as well as controlling project cost. Our team has already put
together two tables to assist in our complete understanding of which wall requires which type of wall, see below:

We have identified several challenges, including
Retaining Wall “J”, which has a wall layout line approximately 8 feet from SR-118 Bridge Bent 6L as well as the CIDH
support pile approximately 11 feet from the Bridge Bents location. Given that the CIDH have the potential of having rock
sockets, drilling activities may require monitoring equipment to be placed on SR-118 Bridge Bent 6L to ensure excessive
vibrations do not impact the existing bridge foundation or column. See Exhibit S- 1.
With a new 30-inch RCP storm drainage pipe being installed under Retaining Wall “B”, coordination between drainage and
structures construction field staff in relation to the proposed 30-inch RCP storm drain line at CL station 19+60 approximately
1 foot below bottom of footing will be critical to ensure no schedule delays in retaining wall construction. See Exhibit S-2.
With an existing 42-inch storm drain line under proposed Retaining Wall “C”, proper identification, verification of depth, and
location of existing 42-inch storm drain line approximately 4 feet below bottom of footing on Retaining Wall “C” at CL Station
16+00 will be necessary during excavation activities for retaining wall footing. See Exhibit S-3.
Retaining Walls “G” and “J” are supported on 24-inch CIDH piles with embedment length requirements that have the
potential of 15-foot-deep rock sockets into bedrock based on the local area geology. With 320 CIDH piles combined
between the two walls, the potential schedule delays could have a significant impact to schedule. We understand the
importance to provide adequate documentation for assistance in potential change order work or disputes in the future,
successful documentation of drill rates, soils encountered, and communication with the City or Caltrans will be required.
With the various Types of walls and multiple transitions within one wall, constructability issues may be present with
longitudinal continuous reinforcement that is required to continue through these transitions. One example is a Type 5 wall
transitioning into a Type 8 wall, which consists of a transition from 16” CMU block to 12” CMU block. See Exhibit S-4.
CIDH Piles - This project has extensive foundation installations including cast-in-drilled-hole (CIDH) piles. For retaining walls
“G” and “J”, there are more than (320) 24-inch CIDH piles supporting the retaining walls that require installation. According to
the local geology and potential shallow bedrock, there is a potential that a significant amount of CIDH piles could potentially
encounter bedrock prior to 50-foot embedment which according to the plans will require a 15-foot rock socket installation.

In addition, the 24-inch CIDH piles are to be installed at 6 feet off center from each other. Careful consideration of pile installation
sequence will be required during installation to not disturb fresh concrete of adjacent CIDH that were placed the previous day
or two. Under the Caltrans SR's direction, our staff will review the contractor's pile installation plan for conformity to project
requirements, special provisions, and Caltrans Standard Specifications. During construction, our inspection staff will monitor
drill rates, start and stop times of drill rigs, rock socket drill rates, drill rig down time, and other necessary information in order to
assist the agency in any potential future claims or change orders. Prior to starting the work, we will review the pile placement
plan and verify the outline of the contractor’s method for sequence of placement, the methods of installation, and a mitigation
plan are acceptable. From there, we will make recommendations to the Structures Representative if any changes are required
to be contract compliant. Once the work begins, our team has the experienced staff to inspect and watch for during CIDH pile
construction. Our experienced structures inspection team has a deep understanding of the contract requirements, has expertise
in this type of pile installations, and will verify the work is completed in accordance with contract requirements.
Stage 2 - Eastbound Princeton Avenue
a.Striping and Traffic Control – The project consists of removal of the existing striping that conflicts with project details;
installation of temporary striping for placement of k-rail and crash cushions on the shoulders of the 133 freeway and in the center
median. The plans include a detour plan but do not include traffic control or staging plans, however, the Contractor will most likely
close lanes during the allowed hours per the project specifications for erection and removal of falsework. The FCG Team
anticipates that the Contractor will perform various operations at night due to availability of full closure especially for work over
through lanes. The FCG Team will coordinate all efforts with the City and Contractor to ensure full compliance to requirements
of MUTCD, WATCH Manual, and project specifications.
b.Drainage / Waterline Improvements – The project consists of the installation of new electrical conduits, irrigation conduits
and existing copper pipe removal and capping. The project plans include construction of a new 10” drainage system atop a

Project Goals
The FCG Team has had two primary objectives since our inception in 2010:
Ensuring the success of our clients and delivery of projects.
Enhancing communities and providing the best project.
Working steadily toward these goals we gained a notable reputation for project understanding, technical excellence, cost
effectiveness, and client responsiveness. It is these attributes that our construction management and inspection team bring to each
project. To these goals, we add individual project-oriented goals that include:
Ensure Safety and compliance to Plans, Specifications, SWPPP, MUTCD, and all others.
Continuous communication with City staff, contractor, and design team.
Impeccable recordkeeping and reporting.
Budget Control – Minimizing change orders and applying value engineering where applicable.
Schedule Control – keeping the project moving while resolving design, contractor, or other project challenges.
Understanding City of Moorpark Needs
The FCG Team understands the importance of this project to the City as it has been anticipated to start construction for a long time
now. As the City of Moorpark staff strive and work hard to improve the lives of the residents of the City of Moorpark, project such as
this provide a great deal to the City in terms of improving infrastructure and traffic flow. The FCG Team understands the needs of
the City of Moorpark due to the following:
Previous Work Experience
FCG successfully completed Construction Management and Inspection on the Asphalt Overlay of Spring Road, Princeton Avenue,
Poindexter Avenue, and Gabbert Road Project; City Project No. MPK 15-03, Federal Project No. STPL-5436 for the City of Moorpark,
October 2017 through March 2018. This project was very important to the City as it required administration per the Caltrans Local
Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM), coordination with residents and business, and coordination with Caltrans especially at
Westbound SR-118 at Princeton Avenue which ended at the limits of this project. The FCG Team successfully delivered project to
the City without any claims or issues and the City received full reimbursements of federal funds under the leadership of our proposed
Project Manager / Resident Engineer Mr. A.B. Fakhouri.
City Policies and Procedures
As stated earlier, FCG has successfully completed a federally funded project with the City of Moorpark during which FCG executed
all administration of the project alongside of the City utilizing LAPM and City procedures and formats of documents. Such documents
included, but not limited to; daily inspection reports, progress pay estimates, and more. As the project started, Caltrans
Construction/Local Assistance Liaison conducted a Pre-Construction Review of the project documents where FCG had all
documents prepared properly to the satisfaction of the City and Caltrans per the City and Caltrans requirements.
Scope of Services: The FCG Team has prepared a thorough and specific Scope of Services something in Section 6.

SECTION 2: STATEMENT OF PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Special Considerations and Project Challenges
FCG learned a great deal about working with the City of Moorpark in terms of enforcement and ensuring Contractor compliance
during construction. The FCG Team understands the City ordinances and requirements pertaining to construction projects as the
proposed project may be the largest of its kind at the City. and this is when the FCG Team can step in and ensure compliance. Our
Resident Engineer will ensure the Contractor is aware of all this at the Pre-Construction Meeting and will remind the Contractor of
this every day and in every meeting and will make sure the inspector is enforcing this daily in the field. Other challenges that will
impact construction are, but not limited to, are as follows:
CHALLENGE RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Safety
Safety is the most important thing on any construction project, including but not limited to,
pedestrians, motorists, bicyclists, contractor workers, inspectors, city and agency staff, and
anyone in the vicinity of the project. The FCG inspector will always enforce safety.
Maintaining Traffic Flow
The FCG Team understands the need to enforce starting work hours at 8:30 a.m. and ending
at 4:30 p.m. and lane closures at signalized intersections within 200 feet of a signal is limited
to 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Such requirements will limit the production of the Contractor’s work,
not to mention the limited workspace on Princeton Avenue work limits, and it may cause the
Contractor to try to start work earlier and not schedule to complete daily work by 4:30 p.m.
Electrical Equipment Lead Time
Procurement of electrical equipment has caused delays prior to the start of construction and
during construction due to the high demand of such equipment. It is recommended that the
Contractor submit all long lead items before the Pre-Construction meeting to meet the deadline.
Coordination with Utility Companies
Typically, coordination with utility companies takes time, especially with Southern California
Edison (SCE). The FCG Team will ensure coordination is done timely to maintain the project
schedule by conducting a utilities meeting immediately after the Pre-Construction Meeting.
Flagging Typical payment for traffic control does not specifically include flagging costs. We recommend
including specific language for flagging as part of traffic control if flagging is needed.
Construction Schedule We suggest adding language to the specifications to include a timeline for review and response
to the baseline schedule and submittal of monthly schedule updates.

Constructability Review of Plans and Specifications
The FCG Team has worked on several similar projects and learned a great deal during construction of such projects as many of th e
team members have experience working as Designers, Contractors, Construction Managers, and Inspectors. The FCG Team has
noticed some issues of concern and provided recommended solutions as shown in the following table:
ISSUES AND RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
PROJECT PLANS
CIDH Piles
CIDH piles should be addressed more clearly: minimum to none details of requirements for
CIDH piles construction including workplan submittal and possibility to have wet hole concrete
placement. Pile length is not defined which can create increased cost of this item to the city
(contractor will bid conservatively, or it will create potential claim). Retaining wall sheets refer to
the Geotech Reports and these should be made available to the contractors bidding the project.
CDIH Pile Clearance
CIDH pile bottom clearance should be 3”
not 2” as shown on detail for 24” CIDH
Concrete Pile
CDIH inspection Tubes
CIDH inspection tubes: CIDH pile shows inspection tubes that are required for wet hole concrete
placement, is there a chance to hit underground water? Geotech report should addressed that.
CIDH pile depths:
CIDH pile depths: CIDH pile depth is undefined on the plans? It is given as 50 foot if no bedrock
and embedded to the bedrock 15 feet. There is a potential that most piles will be f=different
length preventing the contractor from making rebar cages in advance. Typically drilled holes
should be filled ASAP after frilling with concrete and rebar.
Retaining Wall
Retaining Wall specifications (piles, foundations, block walls, concrete walls) are not sufficient
in details, suggest adopting Caltrans requirements at least for CIDG piles if not all elements.
Rebar Specify distance from rebar to interior block wall, wall Type 7 (and others).
Backfill Specify height of permeable backfill material behind RW 7. (CT SS has it).
Retaining Wall Blocks
Specify location of the rebar in reference to the inside wall of the block, not outside. With gravel
size 3/8- 1/2-inch, this rebar should be at least 0.5-0.75 inch away from the inside surface, so it
is encased in grout. It should be shown on the detail.
Gap Areas
Plans should address gap area shown
between larger and smaller size block
shown as triangle? See below. Is it grout,
mortar or just backfill?
Bridge details BO-3
Plans should address Caltrans “Bridge Details BO-3”: sheet (page 34 of 69 plans) should be
referenced for all walls. Each wall cross section should be labeled with appropriate details.
Retaining Wall Cap
Top of RW has cap: no details what type
of cap is it? If mortar cap, it should be
shaped to shed water. If not, in some
locations it must be drilled (?) for cable
railing post (detail should be provided).

Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
SECTION 2: STATEMENT OF PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS
Overtime Inspection Overtime inspection should be clearly defined: define overtime in excess of 8 regular hours daily
and weekend work and provide an hourly rate to be charged back i.e., $140 per hour.
Schedule updates
The Contractor to submit a weekly look-ahead schedule and monthly project schedule updates
along with updated As-Builts with monthly progress payments.
Water Improvements
City should double check the agreement and permitting process during construction to ensure
that the Princeton Avenue Contractor is allowed to perform the various work as some water
agencies require that their specialty contractors perform the works; project specs should clearly
define the scope of water matched with the plans; and explain the permitting process and who
is responsible for what and costs.
Specifications References The specs have a few references in CT Permit about Lead Compliance Plan, no reference
seen in the SP.
HEPA The specs should address HEPA; Caltrans also commented on use of HEPA filters for
vacuuming stripe removals, no reference seen in the SP.
Submittals
Need to be approved before contractor can start work. Suggestion is CPM schedule, SWPPP,
obtain permits, (provide LS items breakdown or Schedule of Values SOV).
Surveying issues Surveying is to be done by the contractor, include sentence in SP that the contractor’s Surveyor
shall provide survey notes and reports available to the CM 24 hours after completing the staking.
LS measured items
At some point the contractor should provide itemized item breakdown for LS items to facilitate
monthly payments. It is preferred that this be provided with the bids, in order to help evaluate
and compare them. The Designer probably has breakdown of quantities for these items, but we
can only list descriptions and let the contractor show their quantities and unit prices.
SWPPP Provide guidelines for SWPPP prepared by the contractor.
Buy America More details on Buy America: Buy America requirements are mentioned in SP but without many
details. It should reference spec that explains it in more detail.

Construction will include approaches, ramps and connectors to
Ocean Boulevard and the I-710 Long Beach Freeway. The proposed
alignment will be approximately 140 feet north of the existing bridge,
centerline to centerline. The bridge will be a cable-stayed design with
two towers approximately 500 feet in height. Excluding approach
structures, the bridge will be approximately 2,000 feet long, with the main span approximately 1,000 feet long from tower to tower.
Scope of Services
WSP was selected by the Port of Long Beach to provide program management and construction management (PM/CM) services
for the design-build Gerald Desmond Bridge (GDB) Replacement Project. Utility relocation was one of the most significant efforts.

Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
SCOPE OF WORK
Scope of Services
Our construction management services focus on coordination, review, tracking, reporting, public outreach, cost control, and field
inspections to ensure the quality of the work complies with applicable federal funding requirements, LAPM, and the contract
documents. The RE and inspector(s) will coordinate and work proactively to assist the general contractor’s construction efforts and
maintain fluid channels of communication with the City’s design consultants to technically support the construction effort and the
efforts of the City in achieving a successful completion with minimum complications.
The FCG Team’s team is unique in that it has a natural quality assurance/control system. Through its structure as an integrated unit
with close communication between team members and interlocking responsibilities that provide good coverage of all elements of
construction engineering, it incorporates minimal overlap of duties to avoid misunderstandings and reduces costs.
The RE is responsible for daily decisions and assignments of specific duties while monitoring the success and completion of project
construction. The resident engineer has specific administrative duties that include review of field activities. He will institute a system
of periodic reviews of the field file for conformance with The FCG Team’s in-house filing system and LAPM. The inspectors will have
specific assignments and move the products of their reporting to the resident engineer/construction manager. This bi-level approach
has proved effective because the likelihood of a missed or incorrect item is essentially eliminated with this multi-level control.
Additionally, our team will maintain a project first philosophy with the contractor. When this is achieved, construction is easy, straight
forward, and accomplished with a minimum of issues. We are a team; and right is right and wrong is wrong for all parties. When this
is established, it creates a fair environment for all, and project success is achieved.
Task 1 Pre-Construction Services
Our Construction Manager (CM), AB Fakhouri, will start work on the Project immediately after the Notice to Proceed (NTP). AB
will develop the tasks that need to be accomplished and assist in bid review, Project scheduling, and with City of Moorpark’s
concurrence, assign staff duties to the appropriate members.
a.Constructability Review – The FCG Team will review the plans and special provisions during design for errors and
constructability issues, report those findings to City of Moorpark, and will coordinate with the design team to eliminate such
issues. By being active during design, these findings typically provide for accurate and concise bids that eventually reduce
RFI’s, changes or claims during construction. Most importantly, bid items in the Special Provisions must be clear as they
describe the work, measurement of the work, and what is included in the payment of each item.
b.Schedule – The CM will work with City of Moorpark to review the baseline schedule, look for issues, and make
recommendations to City of Moorpark as appropriate. Such recommendations will be based on logic and a realistic
schedule. Our CM will propose enhancements based on sequence and number of working days, milestones, and key dates
to ensure development of an efficient and well managed Project.
c.Budget – The FCG Team will review the contractors’ bids and provide comments and recommendations to City of
Moorpark to ensure proper expenditure of funds to control Project costs.
1.Construction Bid and Award
The FCG Team will assist City of Moorpark in the construction bid procurements, including contract documents,
Federal and State requirements, Plans and Special Provisions, and permit requirements. We will perform all work as
per the Caltrans Construction Manual and Local Assistance Procedure Manual.
a.Construction Bid Documents – The FCG Team will review the bids for compliance with contract documents and
contract scope to avoid unbalanced bid items and to prepare tabulations of all bids. The CM will advise City of Moorpark’s
Project Manager, (on issuing the NTP based on review of apparent low bidder price and schedule. This allows for the
contractor to obtain all appropriate permits prior to construction.
b.Pre-Construction Meeting – Once the NTP is produced, the FCG Team will coordinate for the preconstruction meeting
by preparing a list of attendees, including, but not limited to, the contractor, designer, City of Moorpark, Caltrans, and utility
companies. Prior to the meeting, the CM will prepare for City of Moorpark review an agenda that identifies the following:
documents required from the contractor for supervision and safety, certified payroll requirements, materials sampling and

Princeton Avenue Improvement Project
SECTION 5: SCOPE OF WORK
testing criteria, and certificates of compliance for all materials. The attendees will receive meeting minutes, including a sign-
in sheet, for their records following the meeting.
c.Construction Contract Award – The CM will review all bids and will make a recommendation to City of Moorpark to
award to the lowest apparent responsive bidder. Additionally, we will develop a payment excel file, verify the contractor’s
references, licenses, insurances, and coordinate with the contractor for award.
d.Funding Documents – The FCG Team will assist the City with the following:
1.Send copy of notice of preconstruction meeting to Caltrans.
2.Prepare local agency contract award checklist.
3.Prepare detail estimate and summary and finance letter based upon low bid.
4.Obtain from contractor Local Agency Bidder – DBE Commitment (construction contracts) and Local Agency Bidder –
DBE Information (construction contracts) based upon low bid.
5.Prepare resident engineer’s construction contract administration checklist to help local agency with administration of
federal aid project.
6.Submit to Caltrans DLAE Item No. 2 through 5 along with City provided data for engineer’s final opinion of probable
construction cost, contractor’s bid, bid analysis, executed contract, and as advertised plans and specifications.
7.Prepare progress invoice at least every six months based upon contractor’s contract progress reports and submit to
Caltrans DLAE.
Task 2 Construction Management and Coordination
As the pre-construction phase comes to an end, we will begin staffing for construction management and inspection based on the
contractor’s actual schedule of activities and staging of the work. The staffing will parallel the contractor activities to ensure maximum
efficiency in expenditure of the construction management contract with City of Moorpark. When Project activity increases, we will
add additional field staff necessary. A staffing plan is included in the Proposed Staffing and Project Organization section of this
proposal. As we have demonstrated in the past, The FCG Team is committed to reducing the Project duration, which will result cost
savings to City of Moorpark.
Task 2.1 Meetings
The FCG Team will coordinate and conduct weekly progress
and field meetings with the City of Moorpark, the design team,
and Contractor. Our CM will prepare the meeting agendas,
which will include reviews of the Project schedules, a summary
of submittals and RFI’s, unresolved issues, and new issues
requiring follow-up. Our CM will produce meeting minutes of
each meeting. In addition, The FCG Team will coordinate and
meet with residents, business owners, utility firms, and other
agencies involved with this project.
Task 2.2 Communication and Coordination
Our CM, AB Fakhouri, PE, will act as the prime point of
contact between the contractor, City of Moorpark, and the
utility companies. FCG’s CM will ensure coordination with
property owners adjacent to the Project right-of-way to
develop timely communication regarding pre-condition
survey, during construction, and post construction
activities. Mr. Fakhouri will also maintain regular contact
with City of Moorpark’s Construction Manager and Project
Management team, keeping everyone informed as the
Project progresses. FCG’s construction management team
will maintain a close working relationship with all
stakeholders and cohesiveness within the FCG Team.

SECTION 5: SCOPE OF WORK
The FCG Team will coordinate with the contractor during the entire Project including, but not limited to, ensuring full compliance with
permit requirements, procurement of early and/or long lead time items, and an excellent public outreach effort, which will be highly
sensitive to the many businesses surrounding the interchange and the traveling public in the surrounding community. This includes
emphasis on successfully implementing approved traffic control plans, nighttime and weekend lane closures, full road closures,
temporary drainage measures and making sure the WPCP or SWPPP BMPs are keeping up with the job as it changes. The FCG
Team is aware of the following list of projects that may be under construction simultaneously with this Project. The FCG Team will
diligently coordinate all efforts with the following, but not limited to, stakeholders:
a.City of Moorpark various departments.
b.Caltrans District 7; Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.
c.Residents.
d.Businesses.
e.Utility Companies.
f.Water Company.
g.School District.
h.Emergency Responders.
We will also coordinate with the activities of any other City of Moorpark construction Project in the vicinity that our Project may impact,
or that may have an impact our Project.
FCG has successfully worked with many public works contractors in Southern California and has developed strong working
relationships based on trust and respect. The FCG Team has the experience and capability of communicating and partnering with
the contractor and their sub-contractors. The FCG Team will always maintain a professional and a respectful relationship with the
contractor staff.
The Resident Engineer will send a daily e-mail report to the City Project Manager. This daily e-mail will provide the daily status, any
issues and photos. This service will efficiently keep the City Project Manager and others up to date on the project’s progress and
provide confidence in project progress in between site visits by the City of Moorpark.
Construction Coordination – The FCG’s CM will coordinate with the contractor as needed during the entire project to ensure
they are aware of permit requirements, long lead items that can potentially delay the project, and are sensitive to issues that affect
local businesses and the traveling public in the surrounding community. This includes emphasis on successfully implementing
approved traffic control plans, temporary drainage measures and making sure that the SWPPP BMP’s are keeping up with the job
as it changes. Additionally, we will coordinate with the activities of any other construction Projects in the vicinity that we could impact,
or that could impact our Project. These topics will be discussed at the pre-construction meeting, and subsequent progress meetings.
When necessary, required follow up meetings will be scheduled. The FCG Team has successfully worked with many public works
contractors in the counties of Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, San Diego, and Imperial, and has developed
strong working relationships based on trust and respect. The FCG Team has the experience and capability of communicating and
working with the contractor. The FCG Team will continue to develop good working relationships while producing the desired product
for the City of Moorpark.
Utility Coordination – The FCG’s CM will manage the Project’s utility coordination efforts with the contractor and the local utility
companies. A critical factor for constructing any project is early partnering with utility companies within the project limits. Our CM and
the FCG Team will coordinate with each utility company and work diligently to communicate, schedule and achieve the timeline for
each relocation or new construction. Also included in the appendices section of this submittal is a list of the utility work to be performed
by others as shown on the plans (Table A). For utilities planned for relocation during construction, the FCG Team plans to initiate
coordination with the contractor and the respective utility to plan for USA Dig Alert, potholing, and scheduling of the relocation work
of the facilities. The CM will verify the Contractor incorporates work related to the utilities in the baseline schedule.

Task 2.3 Project Schedule and Cost Control
FCG’s CM will manage the Project’s schedule and budget and will set up an internet-based document controls system and Primavera
scheduling. The team will prepare independent monthly estimates for the Project duration, monitoring both the Project and
contingency budgets. Our report to City of Moorpark will include amount paid to contractor to date, previously paid amount to
contractor, percent complete of each bid item, executed change orders, and retention withheld from each pay estimate. Our intent
is to keep City of Moorpark fully informed of the financial status of the Project.
Pay item quantities will be measured daily and documented on daily reports.
Quantity Sheets will be prepared with each pay estimate, with backup calculations.
Change orders will be prepared, monitored, costs independently estimated and verified, and work documented daily on a
separate daily diary with tentative agreements (if force account (T&M)).
Our tracking system includes costs, including supplemental work and furnished materials.
The CM will monitor the Contractor’s schedule, beginning with a thorough review of the baseline schedule submittal, and following
with a review of the monthly schedule updates. The CM will identify any changes or deviations and discuss these issues with the
contractor to determine the causes for deviation.
Contract Change Orders and Claims
The FCG Team will work with the City of Moorpark during Construction Contract Award and Change Order process to assist City of
Moorpark in controlling the costs of the Project and controlling the factors that may escalate Project costs. The FCG Team will
receive, process, track and document Project requests for Contract Change Orders from the Contractor and a CCO log will be
established at the beginning of the Project and will be continuously maintained and updated by Mr. Fakhouri. To the delegated level
of approval, and under the City of Moorpark’s direction, the FCG Team will determine the need, merit, scope, estimated cost, and
schedule impacts to the project as a result of potential contract change orders. The FCG Team will also negotiate change orders
with Contractor as directed. Once merit is established, Mr. Fakhouri will prepare change orders based on the Contract Documents
and in close coordination with the Design Engineer and City Project Manager.
All contract change orders will include a transmittal memorandum that will identify the issue, provide background information,
determine merit and provide financial and schedule impacts. This transmittal memorandum is generally for City review only and is
not shared with the Contractor. All contract change orders will be reviewed with the City Project Manager. The FCG Team will work
with City of Moorpark’s Project Manager to establish levels of financial authority from the City Project Manager up the chain of
command to provide guidelines for change authorization. The FCG Team compile the monthly Project costs, including engineering
and management costs, and include it in the monthly report to City of Moorpark.
Cost Estimating - All change orders will be estimated independently of the contractor’s proposed cost prior to approval by our
CM, and submittal for approval to City of Moorpark. We will comply with the Caltrans Construction Manual and Local Assistance
Procedures Manual and change order calculations will be based on force account analysis outlined in the Handbook. The FCG Team
is comprised of highly qualified scheduling and claims avoidance experts that will produce and analyze schedules from the
perspective of an owner and a contractor. Our experts will ensure the contractor is complying with the requirements. Our approach
includes, but is not limited to, analysis of schedules on a weekly basis, inspector’s daily diaries, meeting minutes, and Project files
to provide City of Moorpark advance notice of any potential delays.
Claims Avoidance and Mitigation – The FCG Team’s renowned claims division and our claims experts have a proven track
record with Caltrans and other public agencies on similar projects. We will monitor all site records of events, labor, materials and
equipment for potential claims or delay issues. This data will be essential when analyzing contractor’s CPM schedule and claims.
Our team will address every issue that will contain all relevant RFI’s, change orders, correspondence, pictures, inspector’s dairies,
cost analysis and schedule analysis. Our objective will be to minimize misunderstandings by providing clear and concise analysis of
all major issues on the Project.
Our Resident Engineer and Structures Representative will establish an open communication plan with the Contractor to discuss all
project matters and will respond to all issues timely to minimize any potential for claims. Typically, claims arise from lack or shortage
of communication and delay in response to RFI’s and change order requests. The FCG Team will address all concerns, RFI’s, and
change order requests in a timely matter and will document all matters in case a claim is submitted. The FCG Team have experience
with reviewing and responding to claims along with representing clients in mediation or arbitration to resolve such matters.

Task 2.4 Management
Advanced Planning and Project Plan Review – Preceding the first working day, the FCG’s Team will visit the project site and
revise the document existing confirm conditions are precisely as represented on the plans and will document all findings. During
construction, the FCG Team will work with the Contractor to review and respond to RFI’s, and if changes are necessary, the team
will handle the change orders in agreement with the contract documents. In addition, the job site will be photographed to document
the pre-construction conditions of existing facilities and utilities that can be damaged amid the construction process. Specific
consideration will be made to the potential work impacts to the local businesses and the travelling public during the construction.
Advanced planning by the FCG Team will ensure the following:
Verify construction limits; review field conditions; identify areas for storage of long lead items, parking, and project
site staging; identify utilities that within the project footprint, and their ultimate disposition; photographic and video
documentation of the project site; and proactive pre-planning to avoid project delays.
Funding Submittals – The FCG Team will assist the City of Moorpark with the following:
1.Send copy of notice of preconstruction meeting to Caltrans.
2.Prepare local agency contract award checklist.
3.Prepare detail estimate and summary and finance letter based upon low bid.

Orders and provisions of the Caltrans Construction Manual. In addition, all staff on the FCG Team will be provided the necessary
safety equipment as required by construction safety orders and regulations of the Project. These devices will be, but are not limited
to, hardhats, safety glasses, reflectorized vests, work boots, earplugs, etc., trucks with amber lights, and harnesses for fall protection
(personal protective equipment (PPE)).
Schedule Control – The FCG Team will produce and analyze schedules from the perspective of an owner and contractor to
ensure timely or early completion of the Project. We will ensure the contractor is complying with the requirements of the monthly
schedule updates as required in the special provisions and will closely monitor the critical path to avoid delays and subsequent
consequences. Our analysis of the contractor’s schedules will be done on a weekly basis in conjunction with inspector’s daily diaries,
meeting minutes, submittal logs, and other Project records. This schedule analysis approach will provide City of Moorpark with notice
of any potential delays prior to issuance by the contractor to allow time for appropriate response. The FCG Team will enforce the
scheduling requirements in the Special Provisions, which will be key to placing City of Moorpark in a positive position in case of
claims. It is recommended that the Special Provisions require the contractor to submit TIA’s, together with costs for any change
orders, including with time requirements when cost proposals are due.

Additionally, the FCG Team is highly experienced in working with AQMD and will review and ensure compliance with AQMD
requirements per the Project permit. Our team will identify the requirements in the permit to ensure all conditions and mitigation
measures are met, including any required monitoring and tracking procedures. The Project includes removal of existing slopes at
both sides of the 133 for the construction of the proposed bridge. The existing soil may include Aerially Deposited Lead (ADL) that
must be addressed in the Project plans and special provisions, including method of removal, disposal, and payment. The FCG team
will ensure the contractor submits a Health and a Safety Plan as well as a Lead Compliance Plan.
Permit Tracking – The FCG team is currently providing these same types of services to Cities of Irwindale, Downey, Burbank,
and other municipalities and agencies throughout the state. The FCG Team utilizes a simple system for tracking of both building and
public works permit using a simple spreadsheet. This system is fairly simple and allows the permittee and City officials to view the
current budget and status of each permit.
Shoring – A shoring submittal will be reviewed by one of our qualified PE’s assigned to the Project. Mr. Dragan Buha, PE a
Structures Representative, has a great deal of experience reviewing and approving contractor’s falsework, shoring, guying, and
other structural submittals.

SECTION 5: SCOPE OF WORK
As-Built Plans – The FCG Team will maintain as-built plans
on an on-going basis throughout the duration of the Project
along with reviewing the Contractor’s As-Built plans monthly
at the time of submission of the monthly pay estimate request
in order to match the work with the schedule and budget. The
redlined plans will show all changes made to the contract
plans, will present name of change approver, and CCO
number. We will also ensure the contractor is tracking as-
builts, and at the end of the Project, our construction
management team will combine all the information into one
accurate and complete set of drawings. At the end of the
Project, the Contractor will submit the final set of As-Built
plans for the City and the FCG Team to review and approve
and once the final set of plans are approved, the Engineer of
Record and Design Team will prepare the As-Builts and
provide the City with the signed plans along with the electronic copy of the plans for the City to archive. Finally, once the Project is
accepted and the Contractor is relieved from maintenance on the Project, the FCG Team will assist the City of Moorpark to transmit
the final copy of the As-Built plans to Caltrans District 7 and utility companies. The FCG Team has worked on many projects that
involve maintaining and reviewing As-Built plans and will ensure the Contractor complies with all requirements for submission.
Final Reports/Release of Permits – At the beginning of the Project, the FCG Team will prepare binders for hard copies of project
documents and a cloud-based filing system for web access of all documents. Such documents will be based on requirements set
forth by FHWA and LAPM which will be used throughout the project including, but not limited to, forms from Chapter 17 of the LAPM.
The FCG Team will complete all necessary forms from Chapter 17 of the LAPM and will assist the City with submission to Caltrans
for final reimbursement of federal funds.
The FCG Team will recommend to the City that final acceptance be issued to the contractor when all punch-list work is completed;
all issues and project walks are answered for the City. Finally, all as-builts will be inventoried and verified complete before the
contractor receives final acceptance and final payment is recommended. Once all closeout activities have been satisfied, a Report
of Completion will be prepared and forwarded to the City Project Manager with recommendation for acceptance of the work. The
report will verify the contractor's compliance with all contract specifications and drawings.
Task 3 Construction Inspection
Task 3.1 Meetings
The Resident Engineer will conduct weekly progress and field meetings with the contractor, City of Moorpark, as necessary and
appropriate, and the inspectors, Office Engineer, and other subconsultants will attend and participate in the discussions and
documentation of the meetings. The Resident Engineer will discuss issues with the Structures Representative, Field Inspectors, and
Office Engineer to ensure previous meeting minutes have been documented and distributed and an agenda with logs is prepared
for the current meeting to discuss project status and schedule.
Task 3.2 Communication
The Resident Engineer and Structures Representative will always communicate with the FCG Team including the subconsultants
and will make sure everyone is well informed and aware of construction activities and will identify all issues and discussions including,
but not limited to, change orders, delays, submittals, RFI’s, and notifying residents and businesses of activities especially closures.
The FCG Team will work as one to ensure proper coordination is done and all communication is shared and documented properly
including, but not limited, to design changes, special requests by the public, and or special requests by City departments. In addition,
the field inspectors will be heavily involved in coordination efforts with utility companies and other agencies because they will be

Task 3.3 Project Cost and Schedule
The Resident Engineer and Structures Representative will manage the Project schedule and finances and will ensure that field
inspectors and support team are aware of the upcoming work activities and costs. In addition, field inspectors will be involved with
gathering data and information to support reviewing construction and look-ahead schedules which will be documented int eh
inspector’s daily diaries. The inspector diaries will include, but not limited to, daily activities, daily quantities, and status of contract
work that will be used to compare to pay estimate requests, schedule submittals, and labor compliance.
In addition, in case the Resident Engineer and City of Moorpark do not agree on a unit price or lump sum cost of a change order,
the field inspector will play a major role in terms of monitoring the work by the Contractor to determine merit of extra work, document
change order work daily, and supervise the Contractor work if the extra work is done under Time and Materials. When the extra work
is done under Time and Materials, the field inspector will document all pertinent information to the work including, but not limited to,
contractor staff names and classifications, equipment, and materials which will be used to verify the Contractor’s Extra Work Bills.
Task 3.4 Construction
The contractor will be required to provide Traffic Handling Plans, which will be reviewed and approved by the FCG Team in
coordination with City of Moorpark as necessary. We will also monitor this and if public safety is threatened, we will direct the
contractor to remedy the situation immediately.
a.Inspection Philosophy – Our work plan is to eliminate surprises to the City of Moorpark by being proactive in working with
the contractor to resolve issues as quickly as possible. A key to our success has been our ability to create a responsive
relationship with the contractor, and our client, resulting in a more efficiently run, and successful project. Our inspectors utilize
the CPM schedule to legitimately the construction advance the construction effort by looking ahead (Being observant of issues
that could delay), and by assisting the contractor in resolving the issues before they become problems. All phases of construction
and all work will be assessed for conformance with contract plans, specifications, and current specified and pertinent standards.
Inspection services, testing, and project-wide quality assurance will be in conformance with the Caltrans construction and local
assistance procedures manuals. The overriding objective for our inspectors will be to make sure beyond any doubt that the city
of Moorpark gets from the contractor what it is paying for, and what is required by the contractor drawings and specifications.
Our objective is to remain on track by doing it right in the first place eliminating time delaying corrective work and retrofitting.
Proactive approaches such as readiness reviews with the contractor’s personnel prior to a new construction activity starting, or
implementing traffic control measures such detours, have been instrumental in accomplishing the objective.
b.Field Staff Roles and Responsibilities – The FCG Team field personnel proposed for the Project are able to perform more
than one role on any project and are able to assist each other when needed. This provides efficiencies for City of Moorpark, as
the FCG Team possesses the versatility and technical knowledge of multiple aspects of heavy civil and structures construction.
Examples of this include our CM, SR, and Office Engineer who are well-versed in assisting with inspection as necessary.
c.Safety – The FCG Team is thoroughly familiar the state of California
Construction Safety Orders (CalOSHA) and traffic control Handbook practices
as indicated within the work area traffic control handbook (WATCH), as all as the
manual of uniform traffic control devices. The contractor will be required to
prepare and submit a safety plan for its operations. The safety plan will be
reviewed by the CM and the FCG Team. Deficiencies will be noted and
corrections the plan will presented. Public safety is extremely vital on the FCG
Team.
d.Traffic Management – The contractor will be required to provide the CM
with traffic handling plans, which will be reviewed and accepted by the
FCG Team in coordination with the city of Moorpark and Caltrans as
necessary. Our inspectors and CM will perform traffic handling plan to verify feasibility prior to implementation. We will
also monitor the implementation of this plan and any traffic control devices. If the public safety appears to be
compromised, we will direct the contractor to fix the situation immediately or cease the operations

e.Inspection Disciplines – The FCG Team will provide
personnel to perform quality assurance inspection the
following Project elements that require specific
skill sets.
f.Roadway Inspection – Our work plan is to partner
with the contractor to resolve problems as quickly as
possible and at the lowest level possible. Key to our
success has been our ability to create a responsive
relationship with the contractor and our client,
resulting in a more efficiently run, successful project.
Our inspectors utilize the CPM and look-ahead
schedules to properly advance the construction effort.
All phases of construction and all work will be
inspected for conformance with contract plans,
specifications, and current specified and pertinent
standards. Inspection services, testing, and Project-
wide quality assurance will be performed in full
conformance with the Caltrans Construction and
Local Assistance Procedures Manuals. Our goal is to
stay on track by doing it right the first time and
eliminating time-delaying, corrective work. Proactive
approaches with the contractor’s personnel have
been instrumental in achieving this goal.
g.Structures Inspection – The FCG Team provides a
seasoned Structures Representative and an
experienced Structures Inspector with a wealth of
experience in bridge construction and inspection skill. Mr. Dragan Buha, PE possesses the skills to perform detailed
engineering analysis for falsework, shoring, use of transit, and builder’s level, to ensure the proposed line and
grades are met in the field, and digitally monitor the pre-stressing operation using a strain gage and load cell.
h.Electrical Inspection – Mr. Leon Fuentes, a seasoned field and electrical inspector, will provide electrical
inspection. He will administer the inspection and construction administration duties involved with the electrical
overhead signs, lighting, traffic signal and communications facilities (fiber optics).
i.Landscape Inspection – Our Landscape Inspector, Mr. Leon Fuentes, is knowledgeable and experienced with the
type of landscaping work associated with construction projects and can identify common plant diseases and pests
and provide recommendations.
j.Documentation – The FCG team will maintain a daily log that includes weather conditions, work status, location and
type of work performed, trade labor, equipment, and materials. Each inspector will take daily photos of work and
accurate measurement of quantities. The FCG team is highly experienced with documenting and maintaining project
files per the Caltrans LAPM. All project files will be kept and maintained by the PM|RE and OE regularly. The FCG
team will setup project folders for all hard copies of project documents and an online storage link to all files. The FCG
team will provide the City with a link to the online files and a directory to review and obtain project files as required.
FCG has had a successful strategy with providing field inspectors and project staff with means of performing inspection work
efficiently with minimal effort. Each inspector will have a laptop, smart phone, iPad, and field internet connection which will allow
each and every inspector to have access to emails, cloud-based filing system, and phone to communicate with the RE, Structures
Representative, City of Moorpark, Contractor, and all others. In addition, once the cloud-based systems is setup for everyone to use,
the inspector can use the iPad to perform daily work such as taking photos and directly saving them specific folders, write daily
diaries and document daily quantities on MS Excel and MS Word files.

Manager as well as experienced personnel, equipment, and facilities to
perform quality assurance (QA) geotechnical and materials testing services for
this construction Project. Twining’s lab is located in the City of Ventura which
is very close to the City of Moorpark, which makes it easier to obtain samples
and perform timely tests and provide the contractor with faster test results.
Twining’s materials technicians will sample and test all materials in accordance
with the most current and appropriate California Test Methods (CTM’s), or
ASTM test methods when specified. Twining’s Caltrans certified laboratory,
which is only minutes from the Project site, and field technicians will be used
to ensure structure and roadway construction work conforms to Caltrans
standards, specifications, and special provisions for material quality and
workmanship. The test results will be transmitted immediately to the CM and
Office Engineer to expedite work. Hard copies will follow in the mail and the
FCG Team CM will ensure testing logs and summary sheets are developed and maintained for the various materials tests, and that
these logs also include resolution of any failed tests, to include re-tests. Turn-around times for testing will also be controlled by
proactive coordination between the CM and inspectors, and Twining’s field testers and lab personnel. Some of the tests to be
performed are nuclear gauge testing in accordance with CTM 375 for compaction at a rate of 10 tests per 500 tons; testing on the
conventional and ARHM asphalt mixture sampled in the field; and Stabilometer test on paving.

Calculations for anticipated salary escalation must be provided.
This is not the only way to estimate salary increases. Other methods will be accepted if they clearly indicate the % increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of
the labor to be performed each year.
An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not acceptable. (i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an
acceptable methodology).
This assumes that one year will be worked at the rate on the cost proposal before salary increases are granted.
