Scope of Work
This letter addresses the scope of work regarding radio and antenna systems to be installed at
Tower 41. This document contains two sections for the work to be completed. The first section
will address the radio system installation, while the second section will address the antenna
system with associated grounding and bonding systems.
The work on Tower 41 will involve DFS personnel for the radio system and a trusted
subcontractor, Second Sight Systems,for the antenna systems.
Section 1
Regarding equipment going directly into the radio room,there will be none. The DFS radio
equipment will be located in a DFS RTU204 type enclosure(NEMA 4X) and configured as a
Forwarding Terminal Unit(FTU). The FTU will contain the three radios, one for the Yagi
communication back to the Utility's Yard, and two for the Omni Antennas to communicate with
the RTUs throughout Miami Beach. The dimension of an RTU204 is 15.5" H X 23" W X 9.5" D.
Below figure A is a picture of the RTU204 enclosure,which will be used for the FTU with one
of our Technicians to gauge the size.

Data Flow Systems,Inc./605 John Rodes Blvd. Melbourne,Plonda 32934/PH:321.259.5009/FAX:321.259.4006
The FTU will be mounted on the cooling tower's outside wall, under the new Yagi-type antenna
at a serviceable height. Figure B below shows the expected mounting location and approximate
size of the FTU radio enclosure. The exact position will be determined during installation and
dictated by Coax lengths from the two New Omni Antennas. Coaxial cable from each antenna
will be routed to the enclosure. However, if the board at Tower 41 prefers a different location,
DFS needs to understand their requirements and adjust our plan.
The only utility the FTU will need from the building is 115VAC power(standard wall receptacle
power)20amp circuit is typical, of which the FTU would use a fraction of the power. The ideal
electrical connection for the FTU is the distribution system with the backup generator; however,
it is not a requirement. The approximate power calculation of the FTU with three radios would
be 50 Watts @ 115VAC, so very minimal.

RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission of the City of Miami
Beach, Florida approve the material terms of an agreement with Data Flow Systems, Inc.
("DFS"), pursuant to Request for Proposals (RFP) 2018-233-KB for Design, Build, Operate
and Maintain Water, Wastewater and Stormwater Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
(SCADA) & Programmable Logic Controller(PLC), and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute the agreement upon finalization by the City Manager and City Attorney.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) generally refers to an industrial computer
system that monitors and controls a process. In the case of the transmission and distribution
elements of utilities, SCADA monitors substations, transformers and other electrical assets.
Sensors (either digital or analog) and control relays that directly interface with the managed
system. Remote Telemetry Units (RTUs) serve as local collection points for gathering reports
from sensors and delivering commands to control relays.
Additionally, SCADA systems are crucial for industrial organizations and companies in the
Page 346 of 2461
Page 362 of 1884
public and private sectors to control and maintain efficiency, distribute data for smarter
decisions, and communicate system issues. The SCADA software processes, distributes and
displays the data helping operators and employees analyze the data and make important
decisions. State and municipal utility departments use SCADA to monitor and regulate water
flow, reservoir levels, pipe pressure and other factors. Effective SCADA systems can result in
significant savings of time and money.
The current SCADA system in the City of Miami Beach is outdated and no longer applicable for
software updates.Therefore,the system requires removal and replacement with a new SCADA
contract. In order to consider a contract,the City of Miami Beach is seeking qualified proposers
to respond to this RFP for an all-inclusive SCADA package that includes engineering, design,
integration and installation of a radio-based or equal form of communication, Internet accessible
SCADA system including PLC. The SCADA system will be for remote monitor and control of
potable water storage tanks and pumping station, wastewater pumping stations, stormwater
pumping stations,and all associated monitoring stations(flow,pressure,etc.).
ANALYSIS
On June 6, 2018, the City Commission approved the issuance of RFP 2018-233-KB and the
RFP was issued. The RFP stipulated a two-step, phased evaluation process. Phase I
considers the qualifications, experience and availability of the proposers and key members of
the design-build team. Firms short-listed in Phase I are then invited to submit technical and price
proposals as part of Phase II. Phase I proposals were received on August 15, 2018. The
Phase I proposals were evaluated on September 13, 2018 by an Evaluation Committee
appointed by the City Manager pursuant to LTC# 456-2018. On October 17, 2018, via
resolution No.2018-30541,the Mayor and the City Commission approved the shortlisting of the
three top-ranked proposers, namely (1) SICE, Inc., (2) Data Flow Systems, Inc., and (3)
Revere Control Systems, Inc.,to be further considered in Phase II of the evaluation process.
Subsequent to the completion of Phase I short-listing and as a result of questions from short-
listed bidders, the City realized that, in order to get the best responses and facilitate the
proposal review process, it was necessary to provide more information to bidders in the form of
design criteria requirements (DCR), which establishes the minimum technical requirements for
the SCADA and PLC system. Accordingly, the Administration engaged Hazen and Sawyer
Engineering towards the latter end of 2018 to develop the DCR. The RFP had to be placed on
hold while the DCR was being developed. Once Hazen and Sawyer Engineering completed the
DCR,the RFP was reinitiated on June 21,2019.
Following the release of the DCR, Phase Il proposals were received from the short-listed firms
on October 18, 2019. Prior to the due date for Phase II proposals, Revere Control Systems,
Inc. notified the City that it had elected not to participate in Phase II. Once the Phase II
proposals were received, Hazen and Sawyer completed its full review of the compliance of
each proposal with the requirements of the DCR.
The Evaluation Committee convened on January 13, 2020 to consider proposals received
under Phase Ii. The evaluation process resulted in the scoring of the proposal received as
follows:
1st Sice, Inc.
2nd Data Flow Systems, Inc.
Page 347 of 2461
Page 363 of 1884
On February 12,2020 City Commission authorized the Administration to enter into simultaneous
negotiations with(1) Sice, Inc. ("SICE°), the top ranked proposer, and (2) Data Flow Systems,
Inc. ("DFS"), the second ranked proposer, and further provide that the final selection of the
recommended proposer, project costs and approval of material terms for the Project shall be
subject to the prior approval of the Mayor and City Commission.
As directed by City Commission, staff proceeded with simultaneous negotiations and requested
a Best and Final Offer(BAFO)from both fimms. The administration has successfully negotiated
the following essential terms:
1. programmable Logic Controls (PLC's): Replacement of all existing PLCs and
input/output(I/O)racks at all wastewater,water,and stormwater stations.

CONCLUSION
I have reviewed the submissions and the findings of staff and the City's engineering consultant,
Hazen and Sawyer. Hazen and Sawyer was tasked with assisting the City with this process and
analyzing how each firm has addressed the project requirements included in the RFP.
According to the Hazen and Sawyer, both firms have met the overall intent of the REP.
Through the negotiation process each firm was given the opportunity to submit its best and final
offer (BAFO) which must comply with the final criteria (essential terms mentioned above)
established by the City to compare the proposals. The BAFOs also included any revised
pricing proposed.According to staff and the City's consultant, both firms are well qualified and
can deliver a system that suits the City's requirements for the project. However, there are two
major material differences that support an award of contract to DFS.
Page 349 of 2461
Page 365 of 1884
•
First, DFS is the only proposer that is a full-service manufacturer and installer of its SCADA
system. This is an important point because the full accountability for the system lies within a
single entity. In contrast, Sice's proposal is based on multiple manufacturers whose products
would be integrated into a cohesive system by the proposer. While this is certainly possible, it
does increase the likelihood of implementation and integration issues, now and in the future
when upgrades are necessary. Further, while the DFS system is proprietary, according to the
City's consultant, once system components are selected, regardless of whether these
components are from a single manufacturer or multiple manufacturers, it is unlikely that a system
would deviate from the original equipment manufacturer because of potential integration issues
that could arise.As such, the proprietary nature of a system of this magnitude and complexity is
not of major concern.
Second, and probably the most important point, DFS submitted a final cost proposal that is
significantly more cost effective and approximately 30% lower than the final cost proposal
submitted by Sice. DFS submitted a final cost proposal of$3,756,169.00. Sice submitted a
final cost proposal of $5,302,010.00. The difference between the two proposals is
$1,545,841.00. Further, when costs for future stormwater integrations (e.g. dry pit, submersible
or in-line booster pumps for wastewater, water and/or stormwater stations) into the SCADA
system are considered,the cost differences between the two proposals becomes even greater.
DFS submitted a proposal .for future integrations and maintenance in the amount of
$1,141,173.00.Sice submitted a proposal for future integrations and maintenance in the amount
of$4,033,781.00.The difference between the two proposals is$2,892,608.00.
Finally, by awarding a contract to DFS the City is assured of a technically competent system that t
is manufactured, installed and maintained by a single entity at a significant cost savings from the
competing proposal.
Therefore, based on the aforementioned, I recommend that the that the Mayor and City
Commission of the City of Miami Beach, Florida approve the Resolution accepting the
recommendation of the City Manager and approving the material terms, pursuant to Request
For Proposals (RFP) 2018-233-KB, for Design, Build, Operate and Maintain Water,
Wastewater and Storrnwater Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) &
Programmable Logic Controller(PLC), in an amount not to exceed $3,756,169.00 including a
ten percent(10%)Owner's Contingency in the amount of$375,616.90;and authorizing the City
Manager and the City Attorney to take the necessary and appropriate steps for the
implementation thereof; and further authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute and
agreement with Data Flow Systems, Inc.("DFS").
