(PUBLIC WORKS) RECOMMENDATION The City Administration ("Administration")recommends that the Mayor and City Commission ("City Commission")approve the Resolution. The solicitation is currently under the cone of silence BACKGROUND/HISTORY The City of Miami Beach is investing in infrastructure to reduce flood risk and adapt to climate change.As part of its resilience efforts,the City has updated multiple land use codes for new construction to address stormwater retention and setbacks and to increase base flood and freeboard requirements.Most recently,the City adopted an Ordinance entitled "Resiliency Standards for Tidal and Flood Protection",requiring all new seawalls,and those being reconstructed,to have a minimum elevation of 5.7 ft.North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVO 88). The City of Miami Beach has approximately 55 miles of seawalls,of which approximately 50 miles are privately owned,and 5 miles are City-owned.To optimize the benefits of the seawall program, the Public Works Department developed a methodology to prioritize the reconstruction of approximately 2.8 miles of City-owned seawalls within the next 10 years.Factors such as elevation,location,and condition of each seawall were used to develop the initial ranking of each seawall. The initial rankings were then adjusted to capture the benefits derived from contiguous private seawall segments.Essentially,by optimizing the elevation of public seawalls adjacent to extended private seawall segments,the City can mitigate additional flooding and encourage residents to reconstruct their seawalls.Thus,the ultimate focus of the seawall prioritization was to establish a continuous storm surge and overland flooding barrier throughout the City. The seawall prioritization was approved and adopted in 2021,and since then,the City has been working on executing the design and construction of prioritized segments.In 2021,the City also identified the most viable locations for implementing a living shoreline within existing City-owned shoreline segments.Living shoreline projects may utilize a variety of structural and organic materials,such as wetland plants,submerged aquatic vegetation,oyster reefs,sand fill,and stone. The City is interested in partnering with the most innovative and solutions-oriented engineers in the field dedicated to resilience and Miami Beach Rising Above,to continue to carry out the Page 48 of 1993 planned improvements to the prioritized seawall segments.These planned improvements include a combination of conventional seawalls,hybrid seawalls,and living shorelines.The intent is to maximize sustainable and resilient solutions for our City. Accordingly,the Administration developed RFQ 2024-234-ND seeking proposals for the desired services. ANALYSIS On April 3,2024,the Mayor and the City Commission authorized the issuance of RFQ No.2024- 234-ND for engineering services for seawalls and living shorelines.On April 4,2024,the RFQ was issued.A voluntary pre-proposal conference to provide information to proposers submitting a response was held on April 17,2024.One addendum was issued,and 101 prospective bidders accessed the advertised solicitation.RFQ responses were due and received on May 28,2024. The City received proposals from the following firms for seawalls and living shorelines: Seawalls: BCC Engineering,LLC Cummins Cederberg,Inc. •GHD Services Inc. Stantec Consulting Services Inc. •R.J.Behar &Company,Inc. •AECOM Technical Services,Inc. •Kimley-Horn and Associates,Inc. Living Shorelines: •Cummins Cederberg,Inc. Moffatt &Nichol,Inc. GHD Services Inc. •AECOM Technical Services,Inc. On May 29,2024,the City Manager appointed the Evaluation Committee via L TC #209-2024. The Evaluation Committee convened on June 17,2024,to consider the proposals received.The Committee was comprised of Eugene Egemba,Principal Engineer,Public Works Engineering Department;Matthew Lepera,Construction Manager,Public Works Engineering Department; Mariela Paez Castillo,Principal Engineer,Public Works Engineering Department;Lindsey Precht, Assistant Director,Environment and Sustainability Department;and Adalberto Viciedo,Chief Structural Engineer,Building Department. The Committee was provided an overview of the project,information relative to the City's Cone of Silence Ordinance,and the Government Sunshine Law.The Committee was also provided with general information on the scope of services and a copy of each proposal.The Committee was instructed to score and rank each proposal pursuant to the evaluation criteria established in the RFQ.The results of the Evaluation Committee process are detailed in Attachment A and resulted in the following rankings Seawalls: 1st ranked (tie)-BCC Engineering,LLC 1st ranked (tie)-Cummins Cederberg,Inc. 3rd ranked --GHD Services Inc. 4th ranked -Stantec Consulting Services Inc. 5th ranked -R.J.Behar &Company,Inc. 6th ranked -AECOM Technical Services,Inc. 7th ranked -Kimley-Horn and Associates,Inc. Living Shorelines: 1st ranked (tie)-Cummins Cederberg,Inc. 1st ranked (tie)--Moffatt &Nichol,Inc. 3rd ranked -GHD Services Inc. Page 49 of 1993 4th ranked -AECOM Technical Services,Inc. The Evaluation Committee process resulted in a tie for top rank for seawalls and living shorelines. BCC Engineering,LLC and Cummins Cederberg,Inc.were tied top-ranked in the seawall category.Cummins Cederberg,Inc.and Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.were tied top-ranked in the living shorelines category.After reviewing the submissions,the Evaluation Committee's rankings and commentary,and the City's experience with the tied firm s,the Administration recommends that the City negotiate with BCC Engineering as the best-qualified firm to serve as the prime/lead consultant for seawall projects and Cummins Cederberg as the best-qualified firm to serve as the prime/lead consultant for living shoreline projects. Awarding the contract to a single consultant for each discipline,such as the seawall and living shorelines,ensures continuity and cohesion throughout the project.When the City collaborates with consultants with a proven track record of successful work,it promotes a seamless workflow and consistency in quality.This approach will minimize potential communication issues and design misalignments that can arise from involving multiple consultants.In addition,having one consultant will foster trust and mutual understanding,which are crucial for efficiently addressing any challenges that may emerge during the project. While splitting the contract among multiple consultants might introduce diverse perspectives,the complexities of coordinating and integrating different consultants can lead to delays and inconsistencies in the final designs.Therefore,the benefits of maintaining continuity and cohesion with experienced,trusted consultants significantly outweigh the advantages of dividing the contract among several consultants.BCC Engineering and Cummins Cederberg have both demonstrated their ability to deliver outstanding results,and their selection as the sole consultants will be advantageous to the City. Lastly,the available workload and the volume of projects do not justify the engagement of two consultants at this time.The prime/lead consultants in each category should be able to complete all the designs as envisioned in the City's seawall prioritization plan. SEAWALLS The Evaluation Committee deemed BCC Engineering,LLC (BCC Engineering)as one of the best- qualified firms to provide engineering services for seawalls.The Evaluation Committee noted that BCC Engineering has not only completed similar projects for other municipalities in Florida but has also successfully completed various seawall projects for the City.This experience demonstrates a thorough understanding of the City's initiatives.The Evaluation Committee also highlighted BCC Engineering's familiarity with South Florida's structural landscape,which has been beneficial for past projects and will continue to be advantageous for future seawall projects.Finally,the approach and methodology outlined by BCC Engineering's Proposal was detailed and included a seawall evaluation matrix that is used to determine optimal solutions and a quality control and quality management plan that can reduce the workload for City staff. BCC Engineering,founded in Miami in 1994 as a local Florida-based firm ,has steadfastly dedicated itself to fulfilling the demands of both the private and public sector clientele.Its expertise lies in the realm of structural,planning,design,and construction management,encompassing a wide spectrum of services,including civil,environmental,site development,traffic engineering, multi-modal transit,complete streets,and highway engineering projects.Today,BBC Engineering is an award-winning firm with 385 employees and has delivered over $6 billion in 100+projects to date.Finally,BCC Engineering has assessed,repaired,and replaced Florida seawalls in Fort Lauderdale,Sarasota,and Miami-Dade County.All references provided positive feedback. The Evaluation committee also deemed Cummins Cederberg,Inc.(Cummins Cederberg),tied top-ranked proposer,and GHD Services Inc.,third-ranked proposer,well qualified and should be considered if the negotiations with BCC Engineering are not successful.

The solicitation is currently under the cone of silence. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The City of Miami Beach is investing in infrastructure to reduce flood risk and adapt to climate change.As part of its resilience efforts,the City has updated multiple land use codes for new construction to address stormwater retention and setbacks and to increase base flood and freeboard requirements.Most recently,the City adopted an Ordinance entitled "Resiliency Standards for Tidal and Flood Protection",requiring all new seawalls,and those being reconstructed,to have a minimum elevation of 5.7 ft.North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). The City of Miami Beach has approximately 55 miles of seawalls,of which approximately 50 miles are privately owned,and 5 miles are City-owned.To optimize the benefits of the seawall program, the Public Works Department developed a methodology to prioritize the reconstruction of approximately 2.8 miles of City-owned seawalls within the next 10 years.Factors such as elevation,location,and condition of each seawall were used to develop the initial ranking of each seawall. The initial rankings were then adjusted to ca pture the benefits derived from contiguous private seawall segments.Essentially,by optimizing the elevation of public seawalls adjacent to extended private seawall segments,the City can mitigate additional flooding and encourage residents to reconstruct their seawalls.Thus,the ultimate focus of the seawall prioritization was to establish a continuous storm surge and overland flooding barrier throughout the City. The seawall prioritization was approved and adopted in 2021,and since then,the City has been working on executing the design and construction of prioritized segments.In 2021,the City also identified the most viable locations for implementing a living shoreline within existing City-owned shoreline segments.Living shoreline projects may utilize a variety of structural and organic materials,such as wetland plants,submerged aquatic vegetation,oyster reefs,sand fill,and stone. The City is interested in partnering with the most innovative and solutions-oriented engineers in the field dedicated to resilience and Miami Beach Rising Above,to continue to carry out the planned improvements to the prioritized seawall segments.These planned improvements include a co mbination of conventional seawalls,hybrid seawalls,and living shorelines.The intent is to maximize sustainable and resilient solutions for our City. Accordingly,the Administration developed RFQ 2024-234-ND seeking proposals for the desired services. ANALYSIS On April 3,2024,the Mayor and the City Commission authorized the issuance of RFQ No.2024- 234-ND for engineering services for seawalls and living shorelines.On April 4,2024,the RFQ was issued.A voluntary pre-proposal conference to provide information to proposers submitting Page 58 of 1993 a response was held on April 17,2024.One addendum was issued,and 101 prospective bidders accessed the advertised solicitation.RFQ responses were due and received on May 28,2024. The City received proposals from the following firms for seawalls and living shorelines: Seawalls: BCC Engineering,LLC •Cummins Cederberg,Inc. •GHD Services Inc. •Stantec Consulting Services Inc. -R.J.Behar &Company,Inc. •AECOM Technical Services,Inc. •Kimley-Horn and Associates,Inc. Living Shorelines: •Cummins Cederberg,Inc. •Moffatt &Nichol,Inc. GHD Services Inc. •AECOM Technical Services,Inc. On May 29,2024,the City Manager appointed the Evaluation Committee via L TC #209-2024. The Evaluation Committee convened on June 17,2024,to consider the proposals received.The Committee was comprised of Eugene Egemba,Principal Engineer,Public Works Engineering Department;Matthew Lepera,Construction Manager,Public Works Engineering Department; Mariela Paez Castillo,Principal Engineer,Public Works Engineering Department;Lindsey Precht, Assistant Director,Environment and Sustainability Department;and Adalberto Viciedo,Chief Structural Engineer,Building Department. The Committee was provided an overview of the project,information relative to the City's Cone of Silence Ordinance,and the Government Sunshine Law.The Committee was also provided with general information on the scope of services and a copy of each proposal.The Committee was instructed to score and rank each proposal pursuant to the evaluation criteria established in the RFQ.The results of the Evaluation Committee process are detailed in Attachment A and resulted in the following rankings Seawalls: 1st ranked (tie)-BCC Engineering,LLC 1st ranked (tie)-Cummins Cederberg,Inc. 3rd ranked -GHD Services Inc. 4th ranked -Stantec Consulting Services Inc. 5th ranked --R.J.Behar &Company,Inc. 6th ranked -AECOM Technical Services,Inc. 7th ranked --Kimley-Horn and Associates,Inc. Living Shorelines: 1st ranked (tie)-Cummins Cederberg,Inc. 1st ranked (tie)--Moffatt &Nichol,Inc. 3rd ranked -GHD Services Inc. 4th ranked -AECOM Technical Services,Inc. The Evaluation Committee process resulted in a tie for top rank for seawalls and living shorelines. BCC Engineering,LLC and Cummins Cederberg,Inc.were tied top-ranked in the seawall category.Cummins Cederberg,Inc.and Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.were tied top-ranked in the living shorelines category.After reviewing the submissions,the Evaluation Committee's rankings and commentary,and the City's experience with the tied firms,the Administration recommends that the City negotiate with BCC Engineering as the best-qualified firm to serve as the prime/lead consultant for seawall projects and Cummins Cederberg as the best-qualified firm to serve as the prime/lead consultant for living shoreline projects. Page 59 of 1993 Awarding the contract to a single consultant for each discipline,such as the seawall and living shorelines,ensures continuity and cohesion throughout the project.When the City collaborates with consultants with a proven track record of successful work,it promotes a seamless workflow and consistency in quality.This approach will minimize potential communication issues and design misalignments that can arise from involving multiple consultants.In addition,having one consultant will foster trust and mutual understanding,which are crucial for efficiently addressing any challenges that may emerge during the project. While splitting the contract among multiple consultants might introduce diverse perspectives,the complexities of coordinating and integrating different consultants can lead to delays and inconsistencies in the final designs.Therefore,the benefits of maintaining continuity and cohesion with experienced,trusted consultants significantly outweigh the advantages of dividing the contract among several consultants.BCC Engineering and Cummins Cederberg have both demonstrated their ability to deliver outstanding results,and their selection as the sole consultants will be advantageous to the City. Lastly,the available workload and the volume of projects do not justify the engagement of two consultants at this time.The prime/lead consultants in each category should be able to complete all the designs as envisioned in the City's seawall prioritization plan. SEAWALLS The Evaluation Committee deemed BCC Engineering,LLC (BCC Engineering)as one of the best- qualified firms to provide engineering services for seawalls.The Evaluation Committee noted that BCC Engineering has not only completed similar projects for other municipalities in Florida but has also successfully completed various seawall projects for the City.This experience demonstrates a thorough understanding of the City's initiatives.The Evaluation Committee also highlighted BCC Engineering's familiarity with South Florida's structural landscape,which has been beneficial for past projects and will continue to be advantageous for future seawall projects.Finally,the approach and methodology outlined by BCC Engineering's Proposal was detailed and included a seawall evaluation matrix that is used to determine optimal solutions and a quality control and quality management plan that can reduce the workload for City staff. BCC Engineering,founded in Miami in 1994 as a local Florida-based firm,has steadfastly dedicated itself to fulfilling the demands of both the private and public sector clientele.Its expertise lies in the realm of structural,planning,design,and construction management,encompassing a wide spectrum of services,including civil,environmental,site development,traffic engineering, multi-modal transit,complete streets,and highway engineering projects.Today,BBC Engineering is an award-winning firm with 385 employees and has delivered over $6 billion in 100+projects to date.Finally,BCC Engineering has assessed,repaired,and replaced Florida seawalls in Fort Lauderdale,Sarasota,and Miami-Dade County.All references provided positive feedback. The Evaluation committee also deemed Cummins Cederberg,Inc.(Cummins Cederberg),tied top-ranked proposer,and GHD Services Inc.,third-ranked proposer,well qualified and should be considered if the negotiations with BCC Engineering are not successful. Cummins and Cederberg,founded over 10 years ago,is an engineering firm that has and continues to exclusively focus on coastal and marine projects.Its professional team is comprised of coastal engineers,marine structural engineers,marine biologists,regulatory and policy experts, marine scientists,and surveyors with proven experience in all facets of coastal engineering, environmental planning,and regulatory framework.Cummins Cederberg has significant experience within the City of Miami Beach,with more than 40 waterfront projects over the last 10 years,and the City has been satisfied with its work and offered positive feedback.Finally,its portfolio showcases a range of innovative and resilient seawall projects in Boynton Beach, Pompano Beach,and Highland Beach,among others.All references provided positive feedback.

Dear Mr.Moscoso: The City has reviewed the bid protest you filed on July 19,2021 on behalf of your Client. Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.("Moffatt"),with regard to the City Manager's award recommendation pursuant to the RFQ.After reviewing the particulars upon which Moffatt's protest has been submitted,the City hereby rejects Moffatt's protest and,in support thereof,finds as follows. Background Moffatt's protest claims "[t]he City Manager's decision to recommend an award of the RFQ to Cummins Cederberg was not exercised upon clearly defined criteria and is arbitrary and capricious,"and also that the City Manager "failed to provide a clearty defined criteria for deciding an award recommendation in the event of a tie between two proposers for the RFQ and made its decision based on criteria which was established outside of the RFQ specification."Moffatt further argues the City Manager considered factors outside of the RFQ specifications and in the process gave preference to the recommended bidder. The City Manager's Authority and the Role of the Evaluation Committee Moffit's protest mischaracterizes the City Manager's award process and fails to acknowledge the City Manager's broad discretion in making an award recommendation,as outlined in the RFQ.To describe the City Manager's award recommendation as a "tie breaker"misconstrues the roles of the City Manager and the Evaluation Committee.In making an award recommendation,the City Manager's recommendation need not be consistent with the 1700 Convention Center Drive Fourth Floor -Miami Beach,Florida 33139 Page 70 0f 1993 David J.Moscoso,Esq. July 23,2024 Page2 Evaluation Committee's rankings.Rather,the City Manager's recommendation is intended to encompass a holistic assessment of each bidder's overall qualifications. The City Manager's authority and discretion in recommending an award to the Mayor and City Commission is granted by Section 2-369 of the City of Miami Beach City Code,which is referenced in Section 0100,12 (Determination of Award)of the RFQ.Section 2-369 of the code states "[i]n determining the ...best bidder ...[the City Manager shall consider]"'the following: (1)the ability,capacity and skill of the Bidder to perform the contract; (2)whether the bidder can perform the contract within the time specified,without delay or interference; (3)the character,integrity,reputation,judgment,experience and efficiency of the Bidder; (4)the quality of performance of previous contracts;and (5)the previous and existing compliance by the Bidder with laws and ordinances relating to the contract. Furthermore,Section 0100,12,of the RFQ clearly states that the City Manager's recommendation need not align strictly with the Evaluation Committee's findings and,in addition to the factors listed in Section 2-369,may consider other information deemed relevant in making a recommendation to City Commission.Thus,consideration of a bidder's performance under previous contracts was not arbitrary and capricious,nor should information included in the RFQ and City Code be described as "an unwritten bias"or as a consideration that was not identified in the RFQ specifications. By placing too much emphasis on the results of the Evaluation Committee,Moffatt incorrectly conflates its favorable Evaluation Committee ranking with a guaranteed outcome.Moffatt disagrees with the results of the RFQ and finds that its own credentials provide no rational basis for an award to anyone other than itself.However,Florida courts have repeatedly made clear that,in reviewing challenges to a public agency's procurement decisions,a "public body has wide discretion"in the bidding process and "its decision,when based on an honest exercise"of the discretion,should not be overturned "even if it may appear erroneous and even if reasonable persons may disagree."Department of Transportation v. Groves-Watkins Constructors,530 S0.2d 912,913 (Fla.1988)(quoting Liberty County • Baxter's Asphalt &Concrete,Inc.,421 So.2d 505 (Fla.1982))(emphasis in original)."[The] sole responsibility is to ascertain whether the agency acted fraudulently,arbitrarily,illegally, or dishonestly."Groves-Watkins,530 So.2d at 914.The City Manager made an award recommendation clearly within her discretion and in accordance with the terms of the RFQ and City Code. 'Because this solicitation is a request for qualifications,where prices and bids are not collected, certain references to "price"and the "lowest"bidder have been omitted from the quoted language for the avoidance of confusion. 1700 Convention Center Drive Fourth Floor Miami Beach,Florida 33139 Page 71 of 1993 David J.Moscoso,Esq. July 23,2024 Page3 For the reasons set forth above,the City denies Moffatt's protest.Moffatt may appeal this decision by filing an original action in the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County,Florida,in accordance with the applicable court rules.Any action not brought in good faith shall be subject to sanctions including damages suffered by the City and attorney's fees incurred by the City in defense of such wrongful action.

Dear Ms Williams: The undersigned firm has the privilege of representing Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.("Moffatt" or "Client").Our Client has asked us to provide you with a letter detailing several instances in which the City has failed to uphold its duties under the Code and established case law. Supporting documentation in favor of the claims made on behalf of D.L Porter Constructors,Inc. is submitted with this response. I.BACKGROUND The City of Miami Beach (the "City"or "Miami Beach")issued a Request for Qualifications ("RFQ),RFQ No.2024-234-ND,titled "Engineering Services for Seawalls and Living Shorelines"in April of 2024.On July 17,2024 the City issued an Award Notification pursuant to the RFQ.The Award Notification notified Moffett that the City Manager will be recommending to the Mayor and City Commission at its July 24,2024 meeting for the Commission approve a resolution accepting two recommendations,one for engineering services for seawalls and another for engineering services for living shorelines,and to approve the administration to enter into negotiations with BCC Engineering,LLC for seawalls and Cummins &Cederberg,Inc.for living shorelines. The Evaluation Committee process resulted in a tie for top rank for seawalls and living shorelines.BCC Engineering,LLC and Cummins Cederberg,Inc.("Cederberg")were tied top- ranked in the seawall category.Cummins Cederberg,Inc.and Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.were tied top-ranked in the living shorelines category.After reviewing the submissions,the Evaluation Committee's rankings and commentary,and the City's experience with the tied firms,the Administration recommended that the City negotiate Cummins Cederberg as the prime/lead consultant for living shoreline projects. www.beckerlawyers.com Florida [New Jersey [New York ]Washington,D.C. Page 73 of 1993 2 The Evaluation Committee deemed Cummins Cederberg as one of the best-qualified firms to provide engineering services for living shorelines.The Manager's position expressed in the Award Notification is that it would benefit the City to have Cummins Cederberg as the awardee based on their past experience in working with the City and their experience in local projects.However,the Evaluation Committee also deemed Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.,as a tied top- ranked proposer and noted Moffat &Nichol,Inc.also has several local projects which were specific to shorelines. Moffatt &Nichol,Inc.submits this letter on July 19,2024. II.LEGALSTANDARD Although public authorities have wide discretion in awarding public contracts through a competitive procurement process,that discretion,"must be exercised based upon clearly defined criteria,and mav not be exercised arbitrarilv or capriciouslv."Liberty County v.Baxter 's Asphalt &Concrete,Inc.,421 So.2d 505 (Fla.1982)(emphasis added); Emerald Correctional Management v.Bay County Bd.Of County Commissioners,955 So.2d 647 (Fla.1st DCA 2007).Public authorities cannot exercise that discretion in a manner that is arbitrary,capricious,dishonest,fraudulent,unreasonable,or in any other way that would subvert or undermine the purpose and object of competitive bidding.D.O.T.v.Groves-Watkins Constructors,530 S0.2d912,913-14 (Fla.1988);Caber Systems v.Department of General Services,530 So.2d 325,336 (Fla.1st DCA 1988).A contract let without regard to required bidding is void and payments may be enjoined.Wester v.Belote,103 Fla.976,138 So.721 (1931).A public entity may not reserve the right to modify the specifications,because to do so would permit favoritism and prevent an equal comparison of bids.Id. No fair comparison of bids may be made unless all bidders are responding to the same specifications.When an invitation to bid lacks definite specifications,a trio of bid violations occurs:each bidder is free to submit bids on what amounts to the bidder's own scope of the work;the agency cannot make an adequate evaluation;and the agency must arbitrarily choose the successful bidder.·Any one of the foregoing defects will render a contract void Id.;Glastein v.City of Miami,399 So.2d 1005 (Fla.3d DCA 1981). A public entity may not avoid the competitive bidding requirement of its charter by amending a contract properly let through competitive bidding.Robert G.Lassiter &Co.v. Taylor,99 Fla.819,128 128 S0.14 (1930),69 A.L.R.689.

The specifications for the RFQ were provided to all Bidders at the same time on April 04. 2024 The specifications for this RF W provided clear proposal evaluation criteria in Section 0400 of the RFO guidelines,titled "Proposal Evaluation"Section 0400 provided a clearly defined evaluation criteria in sub-section 7 of the Proposal E valuation Criteria.titled Determination of Final Ranking"The evaluation criteria for a determination of final ranking provided to all Bidders was as follows 7 DETERMINATION OF FINAL RANKING Ihe sum of the evaluation cntena points will be converted to rankings n accordance wth the example below aer A Bidder Bidder C Quaitate Points 82 74 80 onmrwttee Quanttattve Punts s 5 a Merer t Toal 37 73 30 tank 4 3 2 2uatat ve Punt 32 3 72 Comnmttee Quanttat«e Pont 5 5 0 emnber 2 Tctat 87 90 72 Rani 1 2 3 Qusi4taste Pants 90 74 66 C arrrttee Qu snttat e Punts»£€3 2 ember 2 Tora!95 rg 66us123 ow Aggregate Score J 9 8 Final Ranking'1 a 1 The determination of final rankings also notes that the results of the proposal evaluation process in accordance with Section 0400 does not represent an award recommendation and that the City Manager may use any other information he deems appropriate to develop an award Page 75 of 1993 recommendation to the tty ommtsston,which may differ from the results of the proposal evaluation process and final rankings"No further elaboration,specification,or definition for the City Manager s criteria for developing the award recommendation was provided to the Bidders Following the Evaluation Committee 's sum of the evaluation criteria points.Moffet and Cederberg were determined to be in a tie even though Moffet was given more first place votes by the Committee Members.However.because the RF)specifications provide that the Evaluation Committee s decrston is not an award recommendation.the scores were simply passed to the City Manager and the Evaluation Committee s participaton in the competitive process ended The City Manager then proceeded to break the tie and make an award recommendation to Cederberg based on the fact their significant experience with the City of Miami Beach and their "deep understanding of the unique coastal challenges and environmental conditions characteristic of Miami-Dade County"However,nothing contained in the RFQ specifications provided a local bidder preference.nor were any requirements set forth indicating that proposers should tailor their bids toward a focus on local project Moreover.even if the Bidders would have known that an unwritten bias in favor of experience with local projects existed,multiple members of the Evaluation Committee.including those who ranked Moffatt &Nichol above Cederberg noted specifically the breadth of Moffatt's local experience and their familiarity with local permitting.Moreover unlike Cederberg.all the projects submitted by Moffet &Nichol were focused exclusively on shoreline projects As such Moffet &Nichol's projects included 1 their proposal were both more narrowly tailored and locally focused specifically for the engineering services sought by the City There simply is no rational basis by which the City Manager could have arrived that Cederberg was better suited to be awarded the engineering services for the living shoreline portion of the RFO Even if the consideration of Cederberg s history in working with the City of Miami Beach was a factual basis by which the City could determine that one Bidder displayed a more robust record of know ledge.performance.and aptitude for the shoreline portion of the RFQ.to make the decision based on that criteria would be to rely on a series of factors not contemplated by the RF)guidelines.it deprives all bidders of a fan opportunity to compete by gmng an unwritten advantage based on a criteria which no bidders could have tailored their bids to reflect Because the City Manager relied on the local history and preference for a bidder with local experience as criteria in awarding this RF)and because there is no clearly defined standard for the evaluation of such,the Bidders in th RF)were prevented from competing on an even playing field and the decision to make an award recommendation is based on an arbitrary and capricious standard The RF)for the living shoreline portion of the RF should be reissued for Page 76 of 1993 5 competitive solicitation.with a clear indication of procedure in the event of a tie and a clear methodology of scoring for Bidders regarding experience with local shoreline projects B.Conclusion. The City of Miami Beach issued an RF)for engineering services for a living shoreline ,,-4-.~with a clearly identified RFQ approach and methodology The Evaluation Committee for this RF reviewed proposal submitted by Bidders based on a clearly defined criteria and standards The scoring provided bv the Evaluatuon Committee resulted in a tie for two bidders in this process.The Manager proceeded to break the tie by making a recommendation to award Cederberg based on their familiarity and experience in local shoreline projects The Evaluation Committee provided in their notes an emphasis on Moffett 's experience and familiarity with local shoreline projects as a rationale for their high scores.The City Manager clearly did not rely on the experience and familiarity with local shoreline projects as the criteria for breaking the tie. however even if she did,and to the extent she did.doing so would constitute a reliance on an undefined and unspecified criteria which should be deemed as arbitrary a and capricious based on Florida case law Because the City Manager s award recommendation is based on an arbitrary and capricious application of undefined criteria,the RF)recommendation should be denied and the Commission should either award Moffett &Nichol the living shoreline engineering services or rebid that portion of the RFO Respectfully submitted David J Moscoso DJM Page 77 0f 1993 ACTION:Resolution 2024-33164 adopted.Bradford Kaine and Kristy Bada to handle.

The City of Miami Beach is investing in infrastructure improvements to reduce flood risk and adapt to climate change.As part of its resilience efforts,the City has updated multiple land use codes for new construction to address stormwater retention and setbacks and to increase base flood elevation and freeboard requirements.Most recently, the City adopted an ordinance entitled "Resiliency Standards for Tidal and Flood Protection",requiring all new seawalls to have a minimum elevation of 5.7 ft.North American Vertical Datum (NAVO). The City of Miami Beach has approximately 55 miles of seawalls of which approximately 50 miles are privately owned,and 5 miles are City-owned. To optimize the benefits of the seawall program,the Public Works Department developed a methodology to prioritize the reconstruction of approximately 2.8 miles of City-owned seawalls within the next 10 years.Factors such as elevation,location,and condition of each seawall were used to develop the initial ranking of each seawall. The initial rankings were then adjusted to capture the benefits derived from contiguous private seawall segments. Essentially,by optimizing the elevation of public seawalls adjacent to extended private seawall segments,the City can mitigate additional flooding and encourage residents to reconstruct their seawalls.Thus,the ultimate focus of the seawall prioritization was to establish a continuous storm surge and overland flooding barrier throughout the City. The seawall prioritization was approved and adopted in 2021 (See Appendix D),and since then,the City has been working on executing the design and construction of prioritized segments. In 2021,the City also identified the most viable locations for implementing a living shoreline within existing City- owned shoreline segments (See Appendix D).A "Living Shoreline"is a technique that uses a suite of bank stabilization and habitat restoration techniques to reinforce the shoreline,minimize coastal erosion,and maintain coastal processes while protecting,restoring,enhancing,and creating natural habitat for fish and aquatic plants and wildlife.Living shoreline projects may utilize a variety of structural and organic materials,such as wetland plants, submerged aquatic vegetation,oyster reefs,sand fill,and stone.The use of innovative hybrid seawall systems is also currently being evaluated by the City. The City is interested in partnering with the most innovative and solutions-oriented engineers in the field dedicated to resilience to continue to carry out the planned improvements to the prioritized seawall segments.These planned improvements include a combination of conventional seawalls,hybrid seawalls,and living shorelines.The intent is to maximize sustainable and resilient solutions for our City. 3.PURPOSE. The purpose of this RFQ is to select a prime consultant(s)for seawalls and living shorelines.Bidders may submit a proposal for seawalls or living shorelines,or both.A firm interested in being considered for seawalls and living shorelines must submit two separate proposals -one proposal for seawalls and a separate proposal for shorelines. MIAMI BEACH The City may make an award to a qualified consultant(s)that can act in the capacity of the City's prime consultant(s) for both seawall and living shoreline projects to perform the scope of work outlined below or any required services to facilitate the seawall and living shoreline program.The City may also award seawalls to one consultant(s)and living shorelines to another consultant(s). The selected consultant must have a team of qualified individuals who can guide the City through the decision- making process of making its seawall and living shoreline systems resilient,environmentally responsible, dependable,and future-proof while ensuring any requirements stemming from state and/or federal grant funding are met.While the City intends to make an award to a single consultant for conventional seawalls and living shorelines,it reserves its right to award to multiple consultants if it deems it is in its best interest.Additionally,the City reserves the right to engage other consultants,through other means,to assist the City in its city's infrastructure improvement endeavors. Consultant(s)shall be selected in accordance with the Consultant's Competitive Negotiation Act for related projects as defined in Section 287.055(2)/(0)(2),Florida Statutes (i.e.,a grouping of substantially similar construction, rehabilitation,or renovation activities).As the selection shall be specific to the work detailed herein,the value of the work awarded shall not be limited to the limits established pursuant to Section 287.055(2)(9),Florida Statutes. 3.1 Interested Parties.The_City desires to receive proposals from qualified firms that can provide professional services,in accordance with Section 287.055,Florida Statutes,commonly referred to as the Consultant's Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA).Interested parties are invited to submit proposals in accordance with Section 0300.A pre-proposal conference will be held in accordance with Section 0100, Sub-sections 5 and 7.All proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the criteria found in Section 0400. Proposals will be evaluated against other "like"proposals.For example,proposals submitted for seawalls will be evaluated against other proposals for seawalls,and proposals submitted for shorelines will be evaluated against other proposals for shorelines.The option to award one or multiple prime consultants by option or for both options shall be at the City Commission's sole discretion. THIS RFQ,AND ANY RES UL TING CONTRACT,IS ISSUED AND GOVERNED BY SECTION 287.055,FLORIDA STATUTES. 4.STATEMENT OF WORK REQUIRED. The consultant will provide subject matter expertise to the City on its seawall and living shoreline prioritization work. The consultant must have a team of qualified individuals who can guide the City through the decision-making process of making its seawall and living shoreline systems resilient,environmentally responsible,dependable,and future proof.The City is interested in partnering with the most innovative and solutions-oriented engineers in the field dedicated to resilience and Miami Beach Rising Above.The services described in subsequent items may be awarded in the future to the seawall and shoreline locations in the prioritization list,Appendix D.The City may add or remove seawalls or shorelines to the prioritization lists as deemed necessary upon approval of the City Manager.

acceptance of,nor payment for,any Services required under the Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Consultant (or any subconsultant)of its obligations and responsibilities under the Agreement,nor constitute a waiver of any of the City's rights under the Agreement,or of any 9 cause of action arising out of the performance of the Agreement.The Consultant shall be and remain liable to the City in accordance with Applicable Laws for all damages to City caused by any failure of the Consultant or to comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement or by the Consultant's misconduct,unlawful acts,negligent acts,errors or omissions in the performance of the Agreement. 2.7 TIME:It is understood that time is of the essence in the completion of the Project and,in this respect,the parties agree as follows: 2.7.1 Term:The term of this Agreement shall commence upon execution by the City and Consultant,which shall be the Effective Date referred to on page 1 hereof,and shall be in effect for three (3)years ("Initial Term"),plus two (2),one (1)year renewal options, to be exercised at the sole discretion of the City Manager (Initial Term and any renewals shall be collectively referred to as the "Term").Notwithstanding the preceding Term, Consultant shall adhere to any and all timelines and/or deadlines,as set forth in the Consultant Service Order,including the time for completion of the work and/or services for such Project (as set forth in the particular Consultant Service Order). 2.7.2 The Consultant shall perform the Services as expeditiously as is consistent with the standard of professional skill and care required by this Agreement,and the orderly progress of the Work. 2.7.3 Recognizing that the construction of other projects within the City may affect scheduling of the construction for the Project,the Consultant shall diligently coordinate performance of the Services with the City (through the Project Administrator)in order to provide for the safe,expeditious,economical and efficient completion of the Project, without negatively impacting concurrent work by others. 2.7.4 The Services shall be performed in a manner that shall conform to the Consultant Service Order.The Consultant may submit requests for an adjustment to the Consultant Service Order completion time,if made necessary because of undue delays resulting from untimely review taken by the City (or authorities having jurisdiction over the Project) to approve the Consultant's submissions,or any other portion of the Services requiring approval by the City (or other governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Project).Consultant shall immediately provide the Project Administrator with written notice stating the reason for the particular delay;the requested adjustment (i.e. extension)to the Project Schedule;and a revised anticipated schedule of completion. Upon receipt and review of Consultant's request (and such other documentation as the Project Administrator may require),the Project Administrator may grant a reasonable extension of time for completion of the particular work involved,and authorize that the appropriate adjustment be made to the Project Schedule.The Project Administrator's approval (if granted)shall be in writing. 2.8 Consultant shall use its best efforts to maintain a constructive,professional,cooperative working relationship with the Project Administrator,Consultant,and any and all other individuals and/or firms that have been contracted,or otherwise retained,to perform work on the Project. 2.9 The Consultant shall perform its duties under this Agreement,and under a Consultant Service Order,in a competent,timely and professional manner,and shall be responsible to the City for any failure in its performance,except to the extent that acts or omissions by the City 10 make such performance impossible. 2.10 The Consultant is responsible for the professional quality,technical accuracy, completeness,performance and coordination of all Services required under the Agreement and under the Consultant Service Order (including the services performed by subconsultants),within the specified time period and specified cost.The Consultant shall perform the Services utilizing the skill,knowledge,and judgment ordinarily possessed and used by a proficient consultant with respect to the disciplines required for the performance of such Services in the State of Florida. The Consultant is responsible for and shall represent to City that the Services conform to the City's requirements,the Contract Documents and all Applicable Laws.The Consultant shall be and remain liable to the City for all damages to the City caused by the Consultant's negligent acts or errors or omissions in the performance of the Services.In addition to all other rights and remedies which the City may have,the Consultant shall,at its expense,re-perform all or any portion of the Services to correct any deficiencies which result from the Consultant's failure to perform in accordance with the above standards.The Consultant shall also be liable for the replacement or repair of any defective materials and equipment and for the cost of the re- performance of any non-conforming construction work resulting from such deficient Services (i) for a period from the Effective Date of this Agreement,until twelve (12)months following final acceptance of the Work.The Project Administrator shall notify the Consultant,in writing,of any deficiencies and shall approve the method and timing of the corrections. 2.11 The City shall have the right,at any time,in its sole and absolute discretion,to submit for review to other consultants (engaged by the City at its expense)any or all parts of the Services and the Consultant shall fully cooperate in such review(s).Whenever others are required to verify,review,or consider any Services performed by Consultant (including,without limitation, Consultants,other design professionals,and/or other consultants retained by the City),the intent of such requirement is to enable the Consultant to receive input from others'professional expertise to identify any discrepancies,errors or omissions that are inconsistent with industry standards relating to comparable projects;or which are inconsistent with Applicable Laws;or which are inconsistent with standards,decisions or approvals provided by the City under this Agreement.Consultant will use reasonable care and skill,in accordance and consistent with customary professional standards,in responding to items identified by other reviewers in accordance with this subsection.Consultant shall receive comments from reviewers,in writing. Consultant shall address comments forwarded to it in a timely manner.The term "timely"shall be defined to mean as soon as possible under the circumstances,taking into account the timelines of the

evaluation of future solicitations. 2.12 Consultant agrees that when any portion of the Services relates to a professional service which,under Florida Statutes,requires a license,certificate of authorization,or other form of legal entitlement to practice and/or perform such Service(s),it shall employ and/or retain only qualified duly licensed certified personnel to provide same. 2.13 Consultant agrees to designate,in writing,within five (5)calendar days after receiving a fully executed Consultant Service Order,a qualified licensed professional to serve as its project manager (hereinafter referred to as the "Project Manager").The Project Manager shall be authorized and responsible to act on behalf of Consultant with respect to directing,coordinating 11 and administrating all aspects of the Services.Consultant's Project Manager (as well as any replacement)shall be subject to the prior written approval of the City Manager or the Project Administrator.Replacement (including reassignment)of an approved Project Manager shall not be made without the prior written approval of the City Manager or his designee (i.e.the Project Administrator). 2.13.1 Consultant agrees,within fourteen (14)calendar days of receipt of written notice from the City Manager or the Project Administrator (which notice shall state the cause therefore),to promptly remove and replace a Project Manager,or any other personnel employed or otherwise retained by Consultant for the Project (including,without limitation,any subconsultants). 2.14 Consultant agrees not to divulge,furnish or make available to any third party(ies),any non-public information concerning the Services or the Project,without the prior written consent of the City Manager or the Project Administrator,unless such disclosure is incident to the proper performance of the Services;or the disclosure is required pursuant to Florida Public Records laws;or,in the course of judicial proceedings,where such information has been properly subpoenaed.Consultant shall also require subconsultants to comply with this subsection. 2.15 The City and Consultant acknowledge that the Services,as described in the Agreement and the Consultant Service Order,do not delineate every detail and minor work task required to be performed by Consultant to complete the work and/or services described and delineated under a Consultant Service Order issued to Consultant by the City for a particular Project.If, during the course of performing work,services and/or tasks on a particular Consultant Service Order,Consultant determines that work and/or services should be performed (to complete the Project delineated under such Order)which is,in the Consultant's reasonable opinion,outside the level of effort originally anticipated in the Consultant Service Order,then Consultant shall promptly notify the Project Administrator,in writing,and shall obtain the Project Administrator's written consent before proceeding with such work and/or services.If Consultant proceeds with any such additional work and/or services without obtaining the prior written consent of the Project Administrator,said work and/or services shall be deemed to be a Basic Service under this Agreement and shall also be deemed to be within the scope of services delineated in the Consultant Service Order (whether or not specifically addressed in the Scope of Services).Mere notice by Consultant to the Project Administrator shall not constitute authorization or approval by the City to perform such work.Performance of any such work and/or services by Consultant without the prior written consent of the Project Administrator shall be undertaken at Consultant's sole risk and liability. 2.16 Consultant shall establish,maintain,and categorize any and all Project documents and records pertinent to the Services and shall provide the City,upon request,with copies of any and all such documents and/or records.In addition,Consultant shall provide electronic document files to the City upon completion of the Project. 2.17 THE CITY HAS NO OBLIGATION TO ASSIST,FACILITATE AND/OR PERFORM IN ANY WAY THE CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE AGREEMENT OR OTHER CONTRA CT DOCUMENTS.THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION,FACILITATION AND/OR ASSISTANCE TO THE CONSULTANT SHALL BE AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION AND SHALL NOT,IN ANY WAY,BE CONSTRUED,INTERPRETED AND/OR CONSTITUTE AN ASSUMPTION BY THE CITY OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS,A WAIVER OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS AND/OR EXCUSE ANY BREACH BY CONSULTANT OF 12 ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS.THE PARTICIPATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE CITY FROM DECLARING CONSULTANT IN DEFAULT FOR CONSULTANT'S FAILURE TO PERFORM SUCH OBLIGATION,NOR SHALL IT LIMIT,IN ANY WAY,THE CITY'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.THE CONSULTANT EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES NOT TO RA ISE OR ASSERT AS DEFENSE TO ANY CLAIM,ACTION,SUIT AND/OR OTHER PROCEEDING OF A SIMILAR NATURE,THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION,ASSISTANCE AND/OR FACILITATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS.INCLUDING,WITHOUT LIMITATION,ASSISTING WITH OBTAINING PERMITS OR WITH COORDINATION WITH UTILITIES,OR OTHER MATTERS RELATED TO THE PROJECT.IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THIS SECTION AND/OR ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHER CONTRA CT DOCUMENTS,THIS SECTION SHALL GOVERN. 2.18 GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS:If applicable,the Consultant shall comply with the requirements of Section 255.2575,Florida Statutes,and Chapter 100 of the City Code,as both may be amended from time to time,addressing applicable Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)compliance requirements. 2.19 SUBCONSULTANTS:All services provided by subconsultants shall be consistent with those commitments made by the Consultant in its Proposal and during the competitive solicitation selection process and interview.Such services shall be undertaken and performed pursuant to appropriate written agreements between the Consultant and the subconsultants, which shall contain provisions that preserve and protect the rights of the City under this Agreement.Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between the City and the subconsultants. The Consultant shall not retain,add,or replace any subconsultant without the prior written approval of the City Manager,in response to a written request from the Consultant stating the reasons for any proposed substitution.The Consultant shall cause the names of subconsultants responsible for significant portions of the Services to be inserted on the plans and specifications.

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: PROCUREMENT I.PURPOSE.The purpose of this procedure is to comply with the procurement requirements of the Uniform Administrative Requirements,Cost Principles,and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR Part 200) adopted by the United States Office of Management and Budget.Compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 is a requirement of federally funded grants.This Procedure includes the following exhibit: •Exhibit A-Contract Provisions for Non-Federal Entity Contracts Under Federal Awards II.APPLICABILITY.This procedure is applicable to the expenditure of any funds,typically generated through federal grants or reimbursements,to which the 2 CFR,Part 200,requirements are applicable.The requirements stated herein shall be strictly adhered to by all employees,regardless of department,who are involved in the procurement of goods and services to which the aforementioned regulations are applicable, including but not limited to:all employees involved in procurement activities (e.g.seeking quotes, submitting requisitions,receiving materials,processing invoices)or the administration of a City contract (e.g.,contract or project managers);evaluation committee members;and consultants and technical advisors. A.City's Procurement Regulations.In addition to any requirement stipulated herein,purchases funded by federal grants shall be in compliance with the City's own procurement regulations, including the requirements of Procedure PO.16.02. Ill.CODE OF ETHICS.All employees shall strictly adhere to City Procedure PO.03.01,Code of Ethics for Employees with Procurement Responsibilities,and the Miami-Dade County Conflict of Interest and Code of Ethics Ordinance (Section 2-11.1). IV.ALLOWABLE FEDERAL PROCUREMENT METHODS (2 CFR §200.320).Absent specific approval from the awarding federal agency (which may also be in the financial assistance agreement or funding agency program regulations),only the following five (5)methods of procurement may be used.Note that the methods and thresholds included herein may vary from the City's regular procurement regulations. 1.Micro Purchase.Micro purchases are small purchases made without the need for competition where the purchase price does not exceed $3,000 in the aggregate (or $2,000 for construction services covered by the Davis-Bacon Act). 2.Small Purchase Procedures (Quotes]_Quotes are normally allowed for purchases of goods and services,and construction services under $100,000.Federal regulation requires an "adequate"number of quotes,but as guidance,it is recommended that a minimum of three (3)quotes should be obtained.A no-bid or no-response does not count as a quote for obtaining multiple competitive quotes. a.For construction-related projects in excess of $3,000,the applicability of the Davis-Bacon Act must be confirmed prior to seeking quotes.Construction services is defined by the Davis Bacon Act as the construction,alteration,or repair (including painting and decorating)of public buildings or public works.

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: PROCUREMENT 3.Formal Sealed Invitations to Bid (1TB).For the purchase of goods and services,and construction services greater than $100,000 where cost is the primary determinant for award, an 1TB may be used.City 1TB procedures and standard practices apply.Cost analysis required when greater than $150,000. 4.Requests for Proposals (RFP).For the purchase of goods and services,and construction services greater than $100,000 where a combination of qualifications,proposed scope and cost are the determinants for the award,an RFP may be utilized.City RFP procedures and standard practices apply.Cost analysis required when greater than $150,000. S.Requests for Qualifications (RFQ).An RFQ may only be used for architectural,engineering, landscape architectural,and surveying services,or services performed by any architect, professional engineer,landscape architect,or registered surveyor and mapper in connection with his or her professional employment or practice (See Section 287.055,Florida Statutes) where qualifications is primary the determinant for the award.City RFQ procedures and practices apply.Typically,the RFQ is used for awards in excess of $35,000.For other goods or services,an RFQ may not be utilized.Cost analysis required when greater than $150,000. a.The use of continuing contracts must be approved by the awarding agency prior to use. 6.Non-Competitive Proposals.Non-competitive proposals are discouraged and are only be allowed only where: (i)the item is available from only one source, (ii)public exigency (urgency)or emergency will not allow the delay for a competitive solicitation, (iii)the federal awarding agency approves a written request,or (iv)after solicitation of a number of sources,competition is not obtained. The awarding agency should be notified for approval any time the City intends to enter into a non-competitive contract. 7.Purchases Pursuant to Piggyback Contracts are Discouraged.The use of piggyback contracts is strongly discouraged by FEMA and should be avoided.Piggybacking requires prior approval of the Procurement Department after confirming the following: a.The original contract contains appropriate assignability provisions that permit the assignment of all or a portion of the specified deliverables under the terms originally advertised,competed,evaluated,and awarded,or contains other appropriate assignment provisions. b.The vendor has,in writing,agreed to transfer all contractual rights of the contract to the City through assignment.

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: PROCUREMENT c.The original contract was procured in compliance with 2 C.F.R.§§200.318-200.326. d.The contract price has been analyzed and determined to be fair and reasonable. e.The contract contains all the federally required contract provisions. f.The scope of work to be performed falls within the scope of work under the original contract and there are no changes to the contract that fall outside of what was reasonably considered by the parties when they entered into the contract. g.The scope of the assigned contract originally procured by the assigning party does not exceed the amount of property and services required to meet the assigning party's original,reasonably expected needs.The federal regulations require the recipient or subrecipient to have procurement procedures that preclude it from acquiring property or services it does not need.Therefore,a contract would have an improper original scope if the original party added excess capacity in the original procurement primarily to permit assignment of those contract rights to another entity.Moreover,an assignable contract with an overbroad scope of work may lead to unreasonable pricing and thus should not be used. h.The quantities the assigning party acquired,coupled with the quantities the acquiring grantee or subgrantee seeks,do not exceed the amounts available under the assigning entity's contract. V.ADVERTISEMENT (2 CFR §200.320).Formal solicitations (i.e.,1TB,RFP,RFQ)issued pursuant to this procedure,not exceeding an estimated value of $500,000,shall be publically advertised at least once in a newspaper of general circulation at least 21 days prior to the deadline for receipt of bids or proposals. Formal solicitations (i.e.,1TB,RFP,RFQ)issued pursuant to this procedure,exceeding an estimated value greater than $500,000,shall be publicly advertised at least once in a newspaper of general circulation at least 30 days prior to the deadline for receipt of bids or proposals. VI.GEOGRAPHICAL PREFERENCES PROHIBITED (2 CFR §200.320).The use of statutorily or administratively imposed state or local geographical preferences in the evaluation of bids or proposals is prohibited except where applicable federal statutes expressly mandate or encourage such a preference. VII.COST PLUS A PERCENTAGE OF COST MET HOD OF CONTRACTING PROHIBITED (2 CFR 200.323).The cost plus a percentage of cost and percentage of construction cost methods of contracting may not be used. VIII.TIME AND MATE RIALS MET HOD OF CONTRACTING DISCOURAGED (2 CFR 200.318(j)(1)).The City may only use time and material type contracts after a determination that no other contract is suitable. When such a determination has been made,the contract must include a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk.Additionally,no time or material reimbursement may be based on a cost plus method (See Sec.VII).

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: PROCUREMENT IX.BOND REQUIREMENTS (2 CFR §200.325).Notwithstanding Florida law or City practice,at a minimum for construction or facility improvement contracts or subcontracts exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently $150,000),the following requirements must be met: A .A bid guarantee from each bidder equivalent to five percent (5%)of the bid price.The "bid guarantee"must consist of a firm commitment such as a bid bond,certified check,or other negotiable instrument accompanying a bid as assurance that the bidder will,upon acceptance of the bid,execute such contractual documents as may be required within the time specified. B.A performance bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. C.A payment bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. X.FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION (2 CFR §200.319).Federal regulations regarding procurement transactions funded with federal financial assistance require such transactions to be conducted in a manner that provides full and open competition.This means: A.In order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage,contractors that develop or draft specifications,requirements,statements of work, and invitations for bids or requests for proposals shall be excluded from being considered for award of such procurements. B.Solicitations shall incorporate a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements for the material,product,or service to be procured.Such description must not,in competitive procurements,contain features which unduly restrict competition.The following situations are specifically listed in federal regulations as situations considered to be restrictive of competition and must be avoided: 1.Placing unreasonable requirements on firms in order for them to qualify to do business; 2.Requiring unnecessary experience and excessive bonding; 3.Noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated companies; 4.Noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer contracts; 5.Organizational conflicts of interest; 6.Specifying only a "brand name"product instead of allowing "an equal"product to be offered and describing the performance or other relevant requirements of the procurement;and 7.Any other arbitrary action in the procurement process. C.The solicitation shall identify all requirements which the offerors must fulfill and all other factors to be used in evaluating bids or proposals. D.When a Request for Proposals (RFP)method of solicitation is used,the RFP must identify all evaluation factors and their relative importance.The RFP solicitation shall contain in writing the method for conducting the technical evaluation and any other necessary evaluations of the proposals received.These evaluations may be conducted by the advisory committee appointed to review the proposals (or by a subcommittee thereof)or by a separate technical committee, as set forth in the RFP.

XII.CONTRACTING WITH SMALL AND MINORITY BUSINESSES,WOMEN'S BUSINESS ENTERPRISES,AND LABOR SURPLUS AREA FIRMS.(2 CFR §200.321).The City must take all necessary affirmative steps to assure that minority businesses,women's business enterprises,and labor surplus area firms are used when possible.Affirmative steps must include: A.Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists; B.Assuring that small and minority businesses,and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources; C.Dividing total requirements,when economically feasible,into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses,and women's business enterprises; D.Establishing delivery schedules,where the requirement permits,which encourage participation by small and minority businesses,and women's business enterprises; E.Using the services and assistance,as appropriate,of such organizations as the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce; and F.Requiring the prime contractor,if subcontracts are to be let,to take the affirmative steps listed in paragraphs (1)through (5)of this section.

XIV.CONTRACT COST AND PRICE (2 CFR §200.323). A.Cost or Price Analysis is Required.A cost or price analysis in connection with every procurement action in excess of the federal Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently $150,000)shall be completed.The method and degree of analysis is dependent on the facts surrounding the particular procurement situation,but as a starting point,the requesting department must make or receive independent estimates before receiving bids or proposals. B.Negotiation of Profit Requirement.The City must negotiate profit as a separate element of the price for each contract in which there is no price competition and in all cases where cost analysis is performed.To establish a fair and reasonable profit,consideration must be given to the complexity of the work to be performed,the risk borne by the contractor,the contractor's investment,the amount of subcontracting,the quality of its record of past performance,and industry profit rates in the surrounding geographical area for similar work. XV.AWARD TO RESPONSIBLE CONTRACTORS (2 CFR S200.318).Consistent with Section 2-369 of the City Code,the City may only award contracts to responsible contractors possessing the ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of the proposed procurement.In determining whether a contractor is responsible,consideration will be given to such matters as contractor integrity,compliance with public policy,record of past performance,and financial and technical resources.A contract may not be awarded to a party listed on the government-wide Excluded Parties List System in the System for Award Management (SAM)or to a party listed on the State of Florida's or City's suspended or debarred lists.

Structure locations ra nged from the lntra coastal Waterw ay to residential neighborhoods such as the Las O las Isled,and high- tra ffic areas such as along the N ew River in dow ntow n Fort Lauderdale.Seaw all types ranged from concrete soldier pile/ panel,steel sheet pile,and cora l rock/slurry.Seaw alls supported infrastructure ranging from iconic facilities such as the Sw imming Hall of Fam e,historic parks,to running alongside or at the end of public streets or drivew ays.Th e SM P required extensive site investigation and data collection on a regional scale to assess the structura l,geologica l,and enviro nmental conditions as w ell as right-of-w ay and ow nership.Th is investigation w as then used to support an extensive feasibility study at the hear t of the SM P.The study included design,construction,and permitting cost estimates and schedules for seaw all repair and replacem ent alternatives,City Seaw all Standar ds,and seaw all prioritization forecast out 20 years so that the City could plan and budget needed pro ject s.SM P documentation also consisted of individual in-depth seaw all inspection reports detailing the above and below -w ater condition of each seaw all component,as w ell as a report including an executive level summ ar y of findings,recom m endations,and feasibility of solutions based on fa ct ors such as impacts,use of innovation w here appro priate minimizing disruption,resiliency,and co st. Th e SM P also addressed challenges associated w ith Sea Level Rise (SLR)such as potential structura l modifica tions,bank/ shoreline stabilization,raising seaw all heights,and alignment w ith the City's Residential Seaw all O rdinance outlining criteria for w hen residential seaw alls require raising to mitigate SLR. Lastly,BCC completed the SM P assignment on an aggressive fo ur-m onth schedule in order to have the report finalized so pro jects could be budgeted for the next Fisca l Year . Th e pro cess utilized on the SM P w ill be similar to the one w e envision for this contra ct and the City of M iami Beach. Th e follow ing details the key steps of our approach and methodology for site investigations and feasibility studies. Kickoff Meeting O ur Team's first action w ill be to perfo rm a desktop review of available information.Fo r seaw all projects,w e prefer to perform M IA M I BEA C H a joint field review with City staff,and then pull together senior Team members for a Kickoff Meeting to engage the City staff and/or consultants to discuss overa ll approach and the City's vision and goals.At that time,our Team will also introduce solutions that introduce innovation where appropriate,minimize cost and impacts,and maximize seawall service life. Technical Assessments and Gather Information Existing Information:Compiling all existing information such as w all locations,existing plans and SLR data will be critical for creating our plan of action for each pro ject.Identifying community and public stakeholders along with important pro perties/fa cilities abutting the pro ject will be identified and documented.A central filing location such as Pro jectW ise w ill house all info rmation gathered to fa cilitate access for all Team members.Desktop reviews also help confirm latest field conditions and access.Review of this information will also help the development of a uniform Condition Assessment System and Naming Convention that could be used to establish and document the City's seaw all inventory. Field Evaluations:Field evaluations will include "top side"inspection as well as subaqueous inspections completed by our specialized underwater inspector/divers.Our approach to quality inspections begins before the team is mobilized.Pro per planning establishes a "ro admap" fo r the inspection pro cess,which is needed to ensure the overa ll quality,efficiency,and most importantly,safety of those involved.O ur Team is very familiar with maintaining safety including strong currents and high traffic areas such as the intracoastal waterw ays and will use extreme caution when underw ay and opera te at Idle Speed/No W ake throughout the entirety of the pro ject to ensure the safety of our personnel and to ensure the safety of any manatees or other mar ine life loca ted within the area.W e understand the importance of keeping a safe distance (over 50ft)away from any manatee and w ill follow all FW C's rules and regulations if one is encountered during the inspection process. O ur Team will utilize a prepared inspection field book to organize and collect field data to ensure a comprehensive inspection. Th is field book will include checklists that are required to be filled out prior to leaving the site to ensure all data is co llected and avoid the need for return visits.During this planning phase, o Subaqueous inspections. «rs«oar ±I.IEE±II .)IJ HJ~SzJIIIJ I)LIU 3LIE8 »9±1troy 2924-234-3) bc TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J our Team w ill update our current field inspection template and Q A checklist w ith this contra ct's sco pe para meters and any special inspection provisions.Th e inspection site w ill then be assessed for additional inspect ion equipment needed (N DT equipm ent,sounding equipment,access equipment,etc.)as w ell as co nditions pertinent to the dive team.A site-specific dive opera tion plan w ill also be created and address anticipated site conditions.

Survey:W e will prepar e a "Specific Purpose Survey"to support the seawall design and plans.Notably,City of Miami Beach Seawalls often abut private pro perty. Th erefore,our focus early on will be to resear ch Right-of- W ay info rmation in order to avoid creating a "gap"betw een the City seawall and the private seaw all.O ur survey effort will utilize innovative and technologically advanced solutions such UAV's to pick up pertinent information.As a result,coordination with stakeholders such as the Port of M iami,US Coast G uar d Miami Sector,and Miami International Airpor t will be important early on.W e will first coordinate our appro ach closely with the City Surveyor and Pro ject Management.Th en,for flight restricted areas such as the airport or port,our FAA-certified UAV pilots obtain security clear ances,and employ Terrestrial Li DAR and ro botics. O ur Team hos had outstanding results with this appro ach on lar ge sca le,regional projects such as this were the use of this innovation improves safety,establishes a documented photographic record of conditions,and reduces project schedule. W e combine these methods with use of GPS and co nventional survey to "fill in any gaps"and provide comprehensive survey information with speed,accura cy,and efficiency.In the ca se of a feasibility study,design-level accura cy may not be required. How ever,using our approach,design level of accuracy can be achieved with minimal additional effort,pro viding the City with optimal value.More importantly these technologies allow us to place safety at the forefro nt of our work plan by reducing risks to the public and our M O T-trained survey technicians. Environmental:Ascertaining the enviro nmental permitting needs is one of the key steps in seawall investigation.W e will evaluate each seaw all to determine the appro priate level of permitting required by the South Flor ida W ater Management District (SFW M D),U.S.Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)and/ or the Florida Depar tment of Enviro nmental Protection (FD EP). It is anticipated that many of the seawalls should qualify for an exemption with SFW M D under Chapter 62-330.051 (12), w hich would also qualify for Section 404 approval under the State Progra mmatic Genera l Permit VI (SPGP VI).For seawalls that do not qualify under the exemption criteria of the SPGP VI, individual permits with the respective agencies will be required. W e w ill hold pre-application meetings or coordinate early with Sample LiDor still.

G eotechnical:O ur geotechnical approach to this pro ject is to provide support to the design Team during the seaw all investigation process,including assisting w ith evaluating failure mechanisms and assisting w ith design recommendations for replacement w alls.If needed to verify cause and origin of wall fa ilure or fa r new w all design soil para meters,soil borings (on land or over w ater)may be co mpleted.N ew sea walls are usually installed in front of the existing w alls.In our experience, aging sea w alls often fail fo r one of the follow ing reasons: •Inadequate w all em bedm ent into the soil [soil loss under the wall or leaning w all).Probing along the base of the w all can som etimes verify shallow w all em bedm ent. Depressions behind the seaw all may be observed and indicative of loss of fines. •Deteriora ted sealer or cracks/gaps in wall or segment joints (soil loss thro ugh w all).Evidence often observed as depressions behind w alls at w all joints or visible cra cks/ gaps in front of w all.A soil delta may be visible in the w ater in front of w all at joints. •Buckling failure (w all bow s outw ard,structura l fa ilure or loss of latera l resistance/tie-backs).In this case,the wall is no longer in alignment w ith near by w all segments and has pushed outw ard. Coastal Engineering and Hydraulics:BCC and lntera Incorporated (lntera ),in particular,have a long history working together addressing seaw alls having w orked on the SM P as w ell as the How ar d Fra nkland Bridge project.lntera will begin w ith data collection of the different SLR scenarios currently published.Th is includes the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Clim ate Change (IPCC)recommendations.O ther data co llection w ill include w ind records,historical hurricane activity M IAM I BEACH and measured gage and high water mar k data.The Team will then meet with City to discuss the different projections as well as the desired goals regarding design frequencies,time horizons, risks regarding overtopping rates and integration with existing stormwater systems.The next task involves developing different design scenarios as combinations of SLR combined with waves generated by either hurricanes or seasonal fronts as well as the contribution of tides and storm surge.Th e wave climate at the ar eas of interest can then be evaluated either deterministically or probabilistically through performing Monte Car lo simulations and determining the expected value of the wave climate experienced over the structure's specified lifetime associated with a specific return period (probability of occurrence).From the genera ted simulations,the walls'reco mmended heights can optimized to satisfy the design criteria.Notably,care must be taken to ensure that the wall heights do not adversely affect neighboring properties as per FEM A regulations.This would require additional wave modeling once the optimized height has been developed and possible modification to the recommendations so as not to violate FEM A recommendations. Seaw all Altern atives A key step in the feasibility evaluation is determining the optimal solution,ranging from repair,rehabilitation and strengthening to replacement.The basis hinges on identifying the root cause of the issue or deficiency,meeting the project need,and confirming the seawall service life goal.Understanding the site- specific conditions,wall orientation,ground conditions (loss of fill behind walls),the results of hammer soundings during inspections,and the adjacent and abutting pro perties and community are all key in determining the optimal project path. Shoreline protection options include ripra p,steel sheet pile, concrete panels,vinyl panels,and living shorelines.The appropriate selection of a seawall or shoreline protection will depend on the unique chara cteristics of the site.Factors such as SLR,tidal forces/wave action,enviro nment,scour requirements,and constructability help in determining the appropriate seawall for a specific site.Early coordination between the Structures,Coastal,and Geotechnical Engineers is par amount in determining the key design factor s for the sites and selecting an appropriate shoreline protection.With so many moving par ts during the feasibility analysis,it is important to capture info rmation logically to document design decisions and ar rive at the optimal solution.One tool we use during the feasibility phase is the below Seawall Evaluation Matrix shown as an example exercise.Th is matrix uses a point system Cracks observed in a seawall. «n o»«±I,IEEE S E)I E;7I#SL'III}AIU LJII SILIB3 JO!I+ry nI0 4 2924-234-34 9 be TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.) to distinguish preferred seaw all candidates from those that are less optim al,helping to hone the pro ject direct ion at an ear ly stage and maximize effi ciency.Based on this matrix and our holistic review of the site,the leading shoreline pro tection for this exam ple is steel sheet pile seaw alls.O nce the Coastal Engineer concludes their thorough evaluation of the sites,the matrix w ill be expanded w ith additional key design issues and shoreline protection options to determine the appropriate solutions.In this w ay,effort ca n be made to incorpora te living shorelines to maximize enviro nm ental responsibility. 3.1.2 PROJECT PLANNING AND DESIGN: O nce the planning aspect discussed in Section 1 is completed, the project moves into the production phase.Th e preparation of technica lly sound,high-quality,structural Plans and Specifications is BCC's strength.In the past 10 years,BCC has designed and detailed 697 infrastructure structures ranging from bridges to miscellaneous transportation structures to seaw alls.Th is planning and design experience has ingrained in us the necessary skill set to deliver this seawall pro ject.W e sEw Au n ow .Ek#% ISSUE I STRUCTURE TYPE DURABILITY ENVIRONMENT MAINTENANCE RESISTS SCOUR/ SURGE CONSTRUCTABILITV DESIGNCONSTRUCTION COSTAESTHETICS TOTAL CONCRETE PILE / PANEL CONCRETE SHEET PILE STEEL SHEET PILE CAST IN PLACE VINYL SHEET PILE KEV FACTORS 2 2 2 2 3 2 t 2 3 1 3 2 '2 2 1 3I. 1 '·2 3 1 3 1 2 3 1 l .2 1 3 2 l ;.. 2 3 3 1 2. 2 3 2 1 3 12 14 19 9 16 I !

Our Engineers embrace an active role in community outreach. O ur Engineer of Record provides full support and attends all public meetings.Occasionally the City Council may require updates.So our Engineer of Reco rd also participates in City Council Meetings should the City Engineer or Project Manager require it. At the onset of a project,our first task will be to identify and notify each of the affected stakeholders of the proposed improvements and give the opportunity to provide feedback. Notifications can include a mailed newsletter to the property owners and tenants,emails to elected officials,social media posts,and newspaper or other public advertisements.Our Team has web designers that currently operate and maintain pro ject websites.W e will develop the project website to keep the public informed on the project,and the website will be listed on notifications to stakeholders.Our team has conducted dozens of public meetings,workshops and public hearings.W e can also have small group meetings with stakeholders and be included as part of regular meetings that the stakeholders may already conduct.W e have done this on several projects,and it gives the stakeholders the opportunity to ask questions related solely to the project or impacts that are associated with their gro up,as opposed to being part of a larger public meeting. O ur team will also work closely with the City to develop a community outreach and public involvement plan that best suit your needs. Approach to the Plans Production Process: City Seawall projects follow a specific process from concept to completion that requires specific and timely actions on the part of the design team in order to deliver the project on schedule.

For example,many City seaw alls are located at the end of streets,requiring special considera tions and "w ra p around"w all end treatments to ensure stability of adjacent w alls and shoreline abutting each end of the seaw all.All this was done w ith close coordination w ith the City until the final product had the appear ance and co ntent that the City wanted.We look fo rw ard to continuing to build off that experience with this project! At the 30%phase,w e begin the utility coordination as well as the perm itting process w ith DERM ,Army Corps,etc.since the enviro nmental permitting is on the schedule's critical path.Also, at 30%,the w all geometry,limits,etc.is laid out.W e like to bring the "30%Submittal"up to "60%Submittal"completion, so pertinent details and all pay items,quantities,and costs.Th is goes a long w ay in expediting the design schedule for City of M iami Beach seaw all projects. At 100%,w e provide the signed and sealed plans and calculations,as w ell as a schedule and cost estimate to help the City prepare the bid documents.Given the fluctuation in cost, w e confirm cost escalation and pro vide interim quantity/co st updates as needed. M IAM I BEA C H W e have also helped prepar e bid documents packages,such as recently for the Town of Bay Har bor Islands Broad Causeway bridge repair.The City issues typical front-end Specifications, and we use the Plans to specify all else,such as concrete,steel, etc.,proving TSP's where necessar y,for example,Cathodic Protection. Th ro ughout this entire process,we do the little things right to make the City PM 's job easier.W e acquire existing information ourselves.BCC's W eekly Production Meetings,and Bi-Weekly Team meetings,ensure progress.W e also schedule time for Q uality Control,using checklists for each Phase to ensure completeness.W e take the lead in all meetings and distribute minutes.Invoices include Progress Reports,schedule,and payout curves. 7.Quality Control.All work products (plans,memos, specifications,estimates,etc.)prepared as part of this contract will be prepar ed in acco rdance with a documentable Quality Control (Q C)Plan that assures accountability,accuracy, completeness,legibility, application of appropriate design criteria,and good engineering practice.BCC will prepar e a contract specific Quality Management Plan (Q M P)that addresses the specific review process for each type of document and assigns specific reviewers to each task.BCC QC reviewers are highly experienced experts in their field.W e have identified which staff shall be responsible for QC for the major disciplines on this contract in our organizational chart.All sub consultants will be required to use BCC QM P for the contract.It is important to note that the Q M P will be specific to each TW O and considered a "living document"capable of being adjusted should the TW O needs change,i.e.a discipline added to the TW O,or a change in subconsultant staffing requiring confirmation of,and plugging in another qualified individual.Our QM P and processes go beyond the typica l 5-step QC process (i.e.Review,Comment, Resolution,Implementation,Verification check on plans). O ur QM P includes reviews for global/micro level issues by senior specialists,BCC's in-house CEI group reviews for constructability,and a QA of subs'work.Fro m the onset of any Ta sk W ork O rder (TW O)we will assign QC Reviewers per the contract QM P and include time in the schedule for QC reviews and co mment implementation and backcheck.Our QC also includes lessons learned.W eekly Meetings use "Experience o «r«sos»+EI0IIEEILJ$:III:3 1I)3 III18 AU LJJJ 3I0)1III; 39!!Aryn4 3924-234-31 bc gineerng TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J QUALITY CONTROL TRACKING STAMP PHASESUBMITTAL REVIEW Lad Tc.hie.t #rteto ADO teiia Gaalty trel ho e .# al t orel tar (g.)

Here also,BC C w ent beyond the norm and developed mechanisms specifically designed to capture know ledge. BC C developed he "BC C SDG ",a structures Know ledge Base aligned in subject matter w ith the Sections of the FD OT "Structures Design G uidelines,"including items such as softw ar e nuances,non-Standard designs/details,and Florida-I Beam cam ber coefficients used to avoid beam sag in all our projects, to nam e a few .Staff apply the BC C SDG insights into design/ Q C on a w eekly routine. BCC has also gained valuable construction experience,and a deep appreciation for responsiveness,thro ugh completing $6B of FD O T Design-Build project s,mostly in M iami-Dade County. W e find our extensive Design-Build experience has tra nslated extre m ely w ell to BC C 's continuing services structures contracts, w hich require responsiveness,sound engineering,and viable solutions in an extremely short timeframe.Tying together the Q C Pro cess is our dated/initialed tracking stamp (including elect ronic/BlueBeam version)affixed to each delivera ble to docum ent that the Q C Pro cess from document origination to Q uality Assura nce has been co mpleted,by whom,and on w hat date.Yet again,BC C Structures w ent beyond the typical "tracking stamp"documentation.Specifica lly,BCC Structures developed an innovative Quality Contro l CADD Cell that runs up the vacant space on the side of the plan sheet border,saving space and avoiding clutter on the plan sheet. 8.Plans Review s.W e provide the City with a plan set PDF at each phase,and Public W orks reviews internally and provides comments in the form of plan mar kups.So we provide written responses and return them to the City to confirm that the City is satisfied with how we propose that review comments and markups be addressed in the Plans.W e also ensure phase review comment close out by incorporating a backcheck of City co mments/mar kups into the Quality Control process. 9.Advertisement.Review Pre-Bid questions and draft Pre-Bid responses for City concurrence ASAP. 10.Post Design Services.Review Materials Submittals and conduct Field Reviews as needed.Acknowledge RFl's immediately and respond/resolve within l day.We attend the PreCon M eeting,emphasizing any key aspects of the project. Our role is support,bringing expertise to the table to support construction and keep the pro ject on schedule. Our approach to project planning and design may be best exemplified by our recent Jefferson Avenue End Seawall project with the City of Miami Beach.For this project,we co mpleted the planning,design,and construction of a replacement seawall that include the exact same work mix that can be expected for this contract!Following are several before/after photos that "tell the story"of transforming a long term maintenance issue into a resilient new structure incorporating innovative ideas and materials.

W e also recognize that,compared to FDOT or County projects, m unicipal seaw all pro ject s require an enhanced level of support during the bidding and co nstruction process.In this w ay,w e consider responsive,steadfast support throughout Bidding and Post Design/Construction Management as a key driver to deliver the pro ject on schedule and within budget. Bidding Services Bidding services (services during the bidding processes) extend from responsiveness w hen addressing bid questions and requests fo r info rmation/clarification to completing the bid package.BC C has performed both services in the exact same capacity as this pro ject.M ost recently,for the FD O T District 6 Bridge Repair/Rehabilitation Plans Prepar ation contract,BCC provided response to Contractor bid questions for 25 bridge repair projects.During the bidding phase,it is important to respond to questions and information requests as soon as possible.Additionally,it is critica l that multiple perspectives be used to prepar e w ritten responses.BC C focuses on answering the direct question being posed,often consulting internally with our in-house Construction Engineering Inspections (CEI)ar m as w ell as BC C structures staff w ho also formerly worked as Contractors so offer a unique "C ontractor's side"perspective. BC C then provides a dra ft w ritten response,and the reasoning behind it,to the City Project M anager so that the City can finalize and issue the response.Should a follow up question be posed,the follow up question is addressed w ith the same level of urgency. Bid Package services (preparation of the bid package for advertisem ent)extend from pro viding support to City staff that ar e preparing the bid package,to prepar ing all aspects of the bid package to be posted w ith the pro ject advertisement.BCC recently supported County staff in this w ay as par t of the M iami Dade County Depar tment of Transportation and Public W orks Bridge Rehabilitation co ntra ct.For that contract,provided info rmation such as the pro ject description/scope,anticipated w ork activities,and stipulations to ensure traffic flow for tw o bridge repair projects in close pro ximity to one another that the County decided to advertise as a bundle.Additionally, BC C recently prepared the complete bid package for the To w n of Bay Har bor Islands Kane Conco urse Bridge O ver Indian Creek Bridge N o.875103.Key co mponents of the bid M IA M I BEA C H package included Contract Plans,Contract Specifications, Advertisement for Bids,Instructions to Bidders,Proposal,Bid Bond,Notice of Intent to Award,Agreement (Owner/Contractor Contract),Perfo rmance Bond,Notice to Proceed,General Conditions,Supplementar y Conditions,Cone of Silence, Collusion,Sworn Statement,and Technical Specifications. Construction Management Services BCC has a complete understanding of the Construction Management services required by the City of Miami Beach based on a thorough review of the Request for Qualifications (RFQ )and our experience managing construction of similar pro jects for the City.Typica lly,the BCC Project M anager and seawall Engineer of Record take the lead on Construction M anagement.However,should it be required, BCC's in-house CEI division provides additional resources. Th e following are the key points of our Construction Management Plan: ►Communication:At the core of any successful project is co mmunication between the client and consultant staff.Mr. Christian Aquino,PE (BCC Project Manager)will deliver the Construction Management scope of work.Mr.Aquino will: •Serve as the single point of contact on all CEI Services •Maintain continuous co mmunication with the City to ensure City expectations are being met •Personally perfo rm inspections and oversight •If needed,commit additional highly co mpetent,trained, and experienced CEI inspection and management pro fessionals •Review the funding sources for each project to identify any specific reporting or documentation requirements •Ta ke a pro active appro ach in identifying potential issues and presenting early resolutions •Utilize pro ject management tools such as Primavera, pro jectTracker®,and Deltek Vision to assure projects are delivered on time and on budget •Pro vide the City with up-to-date information on the status of all assigned work •Provide the City with updates on on-going work order and overa ll co ntract budgets,limiting amounts,funds expended to date,remaining funds versus commitments, etc. o «wo o+±III,IEEE3II9 3±III3 YU'III.IS A»IJ LI)II)ELI/I3 9!I+rf1)3924-±34-3)9 TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J be ►CEI Services Plan:We will analyze and evaluate the construction scope of work,constructability,biddability, sequence of construction,maintenance of traffic,utilities, environmental impacts,and permitting.CE!Services required by the City may not require continuous daily on-site inspections and that inspections may be limited to bi-weekly and/or during key construct ion events.BCC will tailor the proposed CE!Services to the specific needs of each project.BCC will then present the City with a proposed CE!Services Plan that will include staffing recommendations based on the proposed scope of services. ►Project Construction Kick-Off Meeting:BCC may lead the Construction Kick-Off Meeting with the City's Project M anager,the selected Contra ctor,assigned CE!staff,and key shar eholders.Th e pro ject scope of w ork w ill be discussed in detail including the pro ject purpose and goals,the pro posed im provements,permitting requirem ents,and any special co nsidera tions.Administra tive functions shall also be discussed such as m onthly pay applications,shop dra w ings,and requests for information (RFl's).Additional considera tions shall be discussed including key pro ject issues,sub-contractors,Team mem ber roles and responsibilities,and City expectations. Th e planning and scheduling of the Construction Kick-O ff M eeting w ill be coordinated w ith the City's Pro ject M anager. ►Project Schedule:Th e submittal,review ,and acceptance of a detailed schedule is essential for measuring construction progress.BCC w ill coordinate w ith the select ed Contractor to submit the Schedule w ithin 30 days of the aw ard of the Construct ion Contra ct and prior to the Pro ject Construct ion Kick-O ff M eeting.BC C w ill then review the schedule fo r critical com ponents such as the N otice to Proceed Date,contract dura tion,utility relocations,shop dra w ing subm ittals,material pro curem ent,M aintenance of Tra ffic (M O T)sequencing,m ajor activities,and logical predecessor-successor relationships.

Th eir team is highly experienced in pro viding geotechnica l engineering and construct ion materials testing services for infrastructure projects,including seaw alls in South Florida.ln fa ct ,one of GC ES's ar eas of specialization is geotechnical support services fo r county and city projects in M iami-Dade County,including the City of M iami Beach.For his seaw all pro ject,GC ES w ill pro vide geotechnical engineering services in genera l accordance w ith City of M iami Beach guidelines, project specifications,and other required guidelines and standar ds.Relevant sim ilar services GC ES has provided include geotechnical evaluations to evaluate site conditions and suitability fo r new and existing seaw alls by perfo rming geotechnical borings and site analysis.GC ES is very familiar w ith the specific soil,rock,groundw ater conditions in South Florida having provided recomm endations on the most cost- effective fo undation options for planned structures considering South Florida subsurfa ce conditions such as limestone,hard layers,sand,shell,organics requiring delineation on a site-by- site basis,and high-w ater table. M IAM I BEA C H In this way,our approach will include pro ject initiation,existing data collection,field reco nnaissance,field exploration, laboratory testing and report writing.Prior to beginning each phase of the explora tion,we will submit a detailed boring location plan for review and meet with the City Project M anager to review the project scope and requirements.The geotechnical services will include a review of all existing soils and foundations,information including exiting foundation plans,as well as printed literature including USDA Soil Survey, USG S Q uadra ngle maps and any existing geotechnical info rmation.W e will supplement this data with additional explora tions and laboratory testing pro gra ms,which will be used fo r performing geotechnica l engineering analysis to provide recommendations for design of seawall structures. Th ese pro jects are expected to involve coordination with an approval of boring locations by utility companies prior to beginning the field work.Utility coordination will be done by an engineering technician.

BCC has held continuing service 5-year FD O T Structure M aintenance/Rehabilitation contract s fo r over a decade. In that regard our coastal engineering experience has ranged from the Panhandle to Ta mpa Bay dow n thro ugh the Keys. M ost Recently,BC C w as engaged im m ediately fo llow ing the landfa ll of Hurricane Ian in Fort M yers.Th rough BC C's D 1 DW Struct ures contra ct,BC C supported the reconstruction of the Sanibel Causew ay w hich involved thousands of feet of seaw all on both sides of the roadw ay.For that assignment, BC C functioned as "O w ner's Representative,"pro viding oversight and Plans Review services to ensure structura l integrity and FOO T compliance.Exam ples of recom m endations w e have provided have included performing G PR to confirm existing seaw all em bedm ent,structura l analysis to determ ine tolera ble em bedment and section loss,spall and crack repairs, ra ising seaw all heights to acco unt fo r SLR,use of innovative m ethods such as Car bon Fiber Reinfo rced Polymer and Cathodic Pro tection,selecting new seaw all type/material M IA M I BEA C H (i.e.concrete,steel sheeting,pile/panel,sheet pile)optimal for the location,and the design of both cantilever and tie- back seaw alls to provide the required level of resiliency. Regar ding Coastal Hydra ulics,the focus is to model the region in order to accura tely predict scour,w ave effects,and surge, and w ork w ith the structural engineers to identify the failure mechanisms of the original seaw alls,develop the design of new seaw alls or repairs,and design any pro tection required at the seaw all toe,above the seaw all,or at bridge abutments or other seaw alls that may flank the ends of City ow ned seaw alls. IN TERA's seaw all w ork has encompassed much of the State of Florida,w ith the majority of the w ork supporting the protection of tra nsportation infrastructure.Recently on the east coast,IN TERA w as part of a multidisciplinary and intera gency strike fo rce to identify vulnera ble sections of Volusia and Flagler County roadw ay,develop alternatives to address the erosion long-term, and solicit public opinion on the pro ject.Recommendations included a secant w all along tw o sections of the roadw ay combined w ith dune restoration and beach nourishment. IN TERA is currently w orking w ith the design build team for the seaw all sections supporting the design thro ugh ca lculation of dune ero sion and toe scour as w ell as assisting w ith the permit application pro cess.Another pro ject perfo rmed for Florida Department of Tra nsportation District 7 involved evaluation of more than tw o miles of seaw all along the south side of the How ar d Fra nkland Bridge causew ay in Ta m pa,FL.Follow ing the heightened concern of w ave induced damage to seaw alls associated w ith the Hurricane Ian landfall,the District requested evaluation of the seaw alls exposed to w aves w ithin Ta mpa Bay to the south of 1-275.IN TERA personnel perfo rmed a site investigation of the seaw all and recommended performing GPR to determine the embedment depths of the sheet pile (as no as- built info rmation w as located).Additionally,IN TERA designed toe pro tect ion fo r the w alls as w ell as a splash apron to prevent loss of fill material above the w alls in the un-asphalted areas. 0o «no«oar ±UIIEERIIJ SE±DIV:BJ YU#$LI)AIL5 AII)LI'JISt J 30±1toy 2v24-234-3/ TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J bc Regarding G eotechnica l,our appro ach w ill include providing support fo r the Structura l Engineer (soil pro perties for the seaw all analysis)and the Coastal Hydraulics Engineer (soil/ gra in size/composition info rmation for use in the scour analysis).W e w ill first review all existing soils and foundations, info rm ation including exiting foundation plans,as well as printed litera ture including USDA Soil Survey,USGS Q uadra ngle maps and any existing geotechnica l information.

Field reports ar e prepar ed for the co nstruction manager, describing the field and labora tory test results.In this way,the BCC Team provides a comprehensive approach to Coastal Engineering for this project. 3.1.6 ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING: Biological assessm ents of existing seaw alls must be co nducted to docum ent pro tected natural resources including stony and soft cora ls,seagra sses,and other pro tected species.Q ualified biologists perform benthic surveys to document these protected resources and this info rmation can be used to develop avoidance and minimization measures associated with seaw all replacem ent,aid in project design and permit applications. Permitting is vital to Structura l pro jects.Even a pro ject as simplified as a seaw all rehabilitation job can present issues if the enviro nmental permitting is not prioritized and addressed up front. M iller Legg brings j enviro nmental expertise to the team w ith extensive environmental resource and permitting experience, w etland/mar ine assessment and mitigation experience, Staff alon Seawall M IAM I BEACH listed species experience,environmental assessment and remediation experience and overall knowledge of ecology and surface and gro undwater hydrology within South Florida. M iller Legg has extensive experience with permitting coastal, wetland and in-water projects at local,state and federal levels. W e also have performed environmental support work for Design and Permitting of major transportation improvement pro jects in FOOT District 6 that are directly relevant to this City of M iami Beach Seawall project. Replacing a seawall in Miami-Dade County involves engagement with key regulator y bodies such as the South Florida W ater M anagement District (SFW M D),the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),and Miami-Dade County Environmental Resources Management (DERM ).Environmental regulatory agencies are particularly concerned about impacts on coastal ecosystems,disturbance to protected species habitats like seagrass beds and co ral reefs and maintaining water quality standards during construction.Addressing these concerns necessitates thorough environmental assessments and surveys to identify sensitive habitats and species. Essential permits include the Enviro nmental Resource Permit (ERP)from SFW M D,programmatic biological opinion (JaxBo) from USACE,and a M iami-Dade County Class I Permit from DERM .A SFW M D ERP is required for development or construction activities to prevent flooding,protect the water quality of Florida's lakes and streams from stormwater pollution, and protect wetlands and other surface waters.Section 24-48 of the M iami-Dade County Code requires that a Miami-Dade County Class I Permit be obtained prior to performing any work in,on,over or upon tidal waters or coastal wetlands of Miami- Dade County or of any of the municipalities located within M iami-Dade County.A Class I Permit is utilized to manage impacts from construction on coastal wetlands and tidal waters. Th rough the Class I Permit Application pro cess,proposed pro jects ar e reviewed to identify potential enviro nmental and other impacts.Before the permit is issued,Miami-Dade County may require modification of the pro ject to eliminate avoidable impacts and to minimize other impacts.Compensation (mitigation)is required for unavoidable impacts as par t of the permit.M itigation plans are then developed to minimize enviro nmental impacts,including erosion control measures and habitat restoration efforts. In the permit application process,early engagement with agencies,comprehensive documentation,and proactive response to feedback are prioritized to streamline approvals. Permit acquisition timelines typically range from 6 to 18 months, o ooa ENI0IIEEE3II)±II3 1JlZJ!II3 MIU IJJIIJ SILIS 39!1In »3 9 2 4 -2 3 4 -3)9 TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J be w ith var iation depending on the agency and specific project circum stances.Surveys fo r seagra ss,cora ls,and other sensitive habitats ar e conducted meticulously by qualified biological experts using appro priate methodologies,w ith findings integra ted into project planning and m itigation stra tegies.

A recent,relevant project M iller Legg is currently handling is the City of M iam i Beach Seaw all 48th Street Cora l Reloca tion. For this project,M iller Legg is tem porarily relocating corals during N Bay Road and 48th Street End Seaw all pro ject . O nce construction is co m plete,and the turbidity curtains are removed,the biologists w ill survey the new ripra p to determine a location that w ill afford the coral the best chance for stability and long-term survival. Th e coral w ill be placed w ithin the ripra p so that its orientation and depth ar e compara ble w ith its original position.A post relocation report w ill be com pleted,including a site plan that identifies the relocated cora l,pre-and post-locations of the cora l,and the anticipated survivability.In addition,M iller Legg w ill prepar e a one w eek,one month and six months post relocation coral monitoring reports.Per the DERM Class I Construction Permit (C Ll-2022-0004),in order to avoid im pacts,2 stony corals loca ted at the footprint of the pro posed w ork at 50 LF from the north pro perty line shall be tem porarily relocated to an area of similar light and depth.

Th erefore,documentation is vital to keeping a project organized, moving fo rw ard,and completed in the best interest of all stakeholders. M oreover,w ith respect to seaw alls, the City maintains ow nership and maintenance responsibility for the seaw all in perpetuity,long after design and construction is com plete."Pro per docum entation and a comprehensive pro ject file pro vide invaluable resources fo r future reference throughout the lifespan of the seaw all.O ne thing that our extensive Florida structure maintenance and rehabilitation experience has taught us is w hen it com es to assessing an existing structure, there can never be "too much"documentation w hen it comes to considering a structure's history w hen addressing conditions and deficiencies.For these reasons,BC C has established mechanism s to ensure proper documentation and reporting thro ughout the project.Pro ject documentation includes pro duct ion and delivera bles,schedule,and financial as w ell as correspondence,design decisions,and miscellaneous adm inistrative.Th e follow ing sum mar izes our comprehensive approach to pro ject docum entation and reporting,from the pro ject onset through Post Design Services. Pro je ct S e tu p At the onset of a pro ject,a project folder w ith a regimented arra ngement of subfolders is created on the BC C N etw ork fo r the purposes of filing project documents and files in an orderly and intuitive manner,ranging from existing as-built info rmation and historic data to field review /inspection photogra phs, M IA M I BEAC H to enviro nmental and utility information,to schedule,to deliverables/submittals,to administrative.After BCC dra fts the Scope of Services and Staff Hour Estimate (Fee Proposal)for City review,updated versions of each are saved to the project file w ith o"..V 2"or"..3 "naming convention to document the negotiations pro cess.Th e file name for the final version uses "...FIN AL"and the date.O nce the W ork Order is issued,BCC provides the final versions with a completed "Ta sk Setup"matrix to BCC Finance to set up the project number for BCC billing and tracking purposes,as well as to document the involvement of any subco nsultants.Although this step is in large par t internal to BCC,it is indicative of our commitment to project documentation, and the impor tance of establishing co mplete records from the start.As another example,the project schedule is prepared, and updates tracked and filed using the same "..V #"naming system.In this way,the project setup initiates an orderly flow of documentation that extends thro ughout the life of the project. :/1t 798 Sout Pointe Drive Site Inspect io n O ur Team utilizes a prepar ed inspection field book to organize and collect field data to ensure a comprehensive inspection and document the conditions observed.Th is field book will include checklists that are required to be filled out prior to leaving the site to ensure all data is collected and avoid the need for return visits.O ne innovative aspect our above-water team has found effective is to prepar e an electronic inspection report document using a laptop containing the inspection report spreadsheet template to populate the inspection report in real time as the inspection progresses.Th is includes conditions,as well as deficiency dimensions and repair limits used to calculate repair quantities and construction costs.In this w ay,the inspection report documentation is gathered,completed,and put to the pro ject file for future reference.After the inspection,a Technical Memora ndum is prepar ed summarizing the inspection findings Along w ith «rao@+±IIIEEE»U $II3 JI III8J II)LIIIIJ SI1II; 30!I+!rIy ±924·234-3)9 TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.J bc and recom mendations for City review and concurrence.Th is step further documents the direction of the project.At this time, any significant pro ject changes are identified and discussed w ith the City to confirm the correct path moving forw ar d. Coordination Early pro ject coordination includes key documentation aspects such as utility coordination,environmental permitting, cultura l resources,and public involvement. For Utility Coordination,w e prepare a utility matrix of all Utility Agency O w ners identifying facility type and size,orientation,and location,and contact inform ation.All documentation forw ar ded to,and received from ,utility ow ners is put to the pro ject file.Similar ly, Environmental Agency perm it application information,permit sketches,and correspondence is captured and filed for future reference.Any com m itm ents made to the public ar e also filed to establish a history of comm unication and ensure that the pro ject com plies w ith the goals and commitments established from the beginning. Production Design,CADD,Specifica tions, and Reports ar e filed in their respective subfo lders,w ith pdf's created and dated at key milestones,such as the Q uality Contro l stage prior to phase submittals.Q uality Contro l prints ar e either created electronically or har d copies scanned and filed to document the pro cess.Each docum ent also has a "W orking File" subfolder that contains the w orking (seed)file for reference. A "Delivera bles"subfolder documents all material submitted to the City by the date,and can include Plans,Specifica tions, Calculations,Forms,M emora ndums,Reports,Cost Estimates, Schedules,and M iscellaneous Documentation.In this w ay, there is a living file alw ays up to date w ith w hatever was pro duced and submitted at any stage during the production effort.Phase review documentation includes providing w ritten responses to City comments on the Plan mar kups as w ell as using a Comm ent-Response W ord document that captures notes from the discussion at the phase review meeting.Th e phase review pro cess is one opportunity for pro ject changes,since depending on the Plan Review er or source of the comment,scope changes can be introduced.W e take a methodica l appro ach to M IAM I BEA C H documenting this occurrence thro ugh the comment-response documentation process.Specifically,the co mment is discussed w ith the City along with potential solutions,design and construction costs,and recommendations so that the City can make an info rmed decision and the project change documented appropriately and using the proper decision-making channels. Management Documentation centers ar ound correspondence such as telephone conversations,emails,and meetings.W e take a disciplined appro ach to documenting correspondence.All project emails ar e filed in an O utlook folder created fo r each project to document w hat was received and when.Discussion/ meeting minutes and notes are taken and distributed to all participants immediately afterw ards for review and any needed edits.The key to this step is to not overly complicate the process. To ols such as M icrosoft W ord Dictate and Teams Transcription are helpful,how ever we find that the BCC Project M anager still needs to filter the info rmation fo r accuracy and key points. Discussion attendees are identified up front,and the key points of the discussion noted along with Action Items,due dates,and any follow up.This approach is especially useful for occa sions when the City PM,due to busy schedule or urgent matters,is conflicted from participating in a meeting or discussion.In these ca ses,should the City PM indicate that the meeting is to proceed without them,detailed meeting notes enable updating the City PM and providing a means fo r the City PM to pro vide valuable input and feedback on the discussion. O n more than one occasion,this has enabled BCC and the City to jointly avoid matters of scope changes and scope creep by proactively identifying the source of the potential change and working to correct it befo re it adversely affects the project. O n the administrative side,documentation and reporting includes invoices submitted monthly along with a Payout Curve and a Progress Report that identifies activities,milestones, upcoming deadlines,financial and schedule information,and compares the "%Complete"with the "%Budget Expended" to ensure progress is steadily tracked from all standpoints. Post Design From the Engineer of Record standpoint,documenting conversations and meetings is particularly important during Do «rs»a ±IIIIEEEII9 IVE;JI;III3S II)III)IJ 3IE.LIS 39 !1 t r y 294-234-3)) TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.) bcengioering Post Design to clear ly docum ent w hat w as discussed and by w hom,and w hat actions w ere taken to keep construction pro gressing.Site inspection documentation identifies participants,the purpose fo r the inspection,the co nditions observed,and action item s and dates to be delivered. 3.1.9 MAINTENANCE &REHABILITATION: Th e prepara tion of technica lly sound,high-quality,structura l maintenance and rehabilitation Plans and Specifications is another of BC C's strengths. In the past l O year s alone,BC C has completed 77 major maintenance and rehabilitation projects involving coastal Florida bridges and seaw alls.Experience is paramount w hen it comes to struct ure maintenance and rehabilitation.BCC staff has been involved w ith Florida structure maintenance and rehabilitation for over 4 decades.O ne byproduct of that w hich w ill apply direct ly to this City of M iami Beach contract is our act ive contracts keep us in constant communication w ith FDO T structure maintenance and materials staff at the highest levels in the State.In this w ay,BC C is alw ays at the cutting edge of structure rehabilitation,methods,applications, ideas,technologies,and real-tim e lessons learned that can be imm ediately applied to this City of M iami Beach seaw all contra ct. In this w ay,coastal Florida structure maintenance and rehabilitation is a niche industry in w hich BC C has a firm foothold.M aintenance and Rehab w ork is unique in that there is no "one size fits all"repair.Rather,repairs must be customized to fit each specific application.Th e devil is in the details,and Engineering pra cticality and technica l expertise m ust be applied in equal measures.Project plans must clear ly outline the w ork to be done but not dictate Contractor M eans and M ethods unless the situation demands a specific approach to ensure safety or quality.M aintenance and Rehabilitation project s follow a defined pro cess from concept to completion that requires specific and tim ely actions on the par t of the design team in order to deliver the pro ject on schedule. Th e key aspects that distinguish structura l maintenance and rehabilitation pro jects from normal pro jects include: •W orking w ithin the constra ints of existing conditions •Enhanced field review s and inspections in the absence of existing plan info rmation •Recognizing signs of deficiencies not visible to the naked eye,such as incipient spoils or previous repairs that can co nceal the true level of deteriora tion •W orking w ithin a fixed,pre-established co nstruction M IAM I BEA C H budget. •Addressing the ro ot cause of the deficiency (not providing just a "Band-Aid"repair). •Completing quality repairs that provide the required longevity. •Completing repairs with minimal disruption and impacts. •Maximizing the remaining service life,or if the structure is planned for replacement,prioritize repairs to get to the replacement year at minimal cost. •Providing clean,constructible designs and easy-to- understand plans and specifications. •Avoiding cost overruns,such as ensuring concrete repair quantities acco unt fo r the required repair volume exceeding the size of the deficiency measured in the field, and additional deterioration from the time of the initial inspection to the time actual construction takes place. •Maintenance and rehabilitation projects require enhanced attentiveness during construction.Contractors aggressively bid maintenance and repair jobs with the intent to submit claims and recognize overruns - Contra ctors are especially motivated for relatively small jobs such as seaw alls where successful claims can have a more direct impact on the Contractor'pro fit. Determining the appro priate repair solution hinges on identifying the ro ot cause of the deterioration or deficiency.Understanding the site-specific conditions,wall orientation,ground conditions (loss of fill behind walls),the results of hammer soundings during inspections,and taking note of the type and importance of pro perties and facilities supported by the wall ar e all key in this determination. O ur Team has extensive experience not only evaluating existing walls that have deteriorated but also experience designing and constructing seaw alls through many of our Design-Build contracts.Know ing what it takes to build these walls is also important w hen determining optimal repairs and the viability of constructability aspects such as in-place repairs vs.the need for tempora ry shoring and support.Issues affecting construction ar e things like shallow water,limited access,presence of utilities or submerged resources,and har d soil pro files. Typical concrete repair details include spoil repairs (shall and deep with exposed rebar ), pile jackets,and epoxy injection &sealing of Concrete Repairs «osoc+±IEE±RIIJ3II±J HJ:III1J MIU 1II)IJ SLUE3 3!I+Arr0y 3924-234-3)) b ngineereg TAB 3 3.1 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY (CONT.) cra cks.Innovative repair ideas our Team has to further increase the possibility fo r repair over replacement of existing seaw alls are: ►Post-Installed Dra inage W eep Holes (relieve pore water pressure behind w alls) ►Cathodic Protection System s (C orro sion Inhibitor) ►Use of G lass Fiber and Basalt Rebar (less costly than car bon fiber rebar ) ►Zinc M esh Act ivating M ortar Cathodic Pro tection. ►Solar pow ered impressed current Cathodic Pro tection systems.

Inspect ions include above and below w ater and inspectors M IAM I BEA C H look for signs of global and localized distress.Anything affecting safety is red flagged fo r immediate attention.Another benefit of the Engineer of Record performing inspections is pro spective repairs are added to the inspection notes at that time,facilitating plan development and promoting repair effectiveness.O ur Engineers also coordinate with the City to confirm the ca pabilities of City Maintenance crews to address routine maintenance such as localized sand cement bag shoring,vegetation removal,or minor gro ut troweling to pro tect against fill leakage,vs.repairs that require more specialized Contractor work and therefore require advertising a repair pro ject.0 Inspection/Assessment Memo.Document inspection findings and provide to City PM in order to confirm scope and the recommended repairs and upgrades.Each recommendation is accompanied by a photogra ph,description of the co ndition,and genera l type/scope of repair.Th e same goes fo r recommendations of inaction. For example,in some cases,minor deficiencies do not war rant repair due to factors such as redundancy of the structura l system or the structura l importance of the member does not justify using intrusive methods to address.Such cases are also documented in the memo to provide documentation for why design decisions were made for future reference and enable the City to make informed decisions moving fo rwar d.9 Plans Production.Seaw all rehabilitation projects ar e relatively stra ightforw ar d and do not require an abundance of phase submittals.Typically,repair projects follow a 60%/90%/l 00%Submittal Schedule.Customizing our librar y of typical/co mmon repair details to be pro ject-specific minimizes effort and reduced schedule.Repair projects typica lly do not impact utilities and involve simplified permitting,however it is still important to begin the utility coordination as well as the permitting pro cess with DERM ,Army Corps,etc.immediately to avoid unnecessar y delays dow n the line.W e also like to bring the "60%Submittal"up to "90%Submittal"level of detail and completion.Th is makes fo r a higher quality project and,for example,makes for more detailed feedback resulting from Public W orks phase review s.

A nother positive bypro duct of Design-Build work is it requires a relatively large number of structura l resources to pursue and deliver.As a result,Design-Build success has burgeoned BCC's Florida stru ct ures gro up to 50 stro ng (29 PE's),all with Florida coastal structure design and repair experience,and including experience firm ly grounded in South Florida. ►In-House Construction Engineering Inspection (CEI) Services.BCC's in-house CEI ar m pro vides vast resources in the construct ion pro jects involving replacement and re pair of coas tal structures.Th is is not only a value-added feature for construct ion support,but during the design phase when,as M IAM I BEACH par t of the Q uality Control Process,the CEI team provides Constructability Reviews on the Plans and Specifica tions. Grant Application Support. BCC offers services in the area of capturing funding sources for municipal projects.Recent grantNe.aol canon exer ience includes "Vision Zero "pro grams for the City of Coral Springs and MiamiVISION±.:Z E R0 For the DTPW assignment,BCC,S Ide rearoo of a alano to request federa l funds from the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) G ra nt Progra m to fund the implementation of a portion of the To p 10 0 locations for implementation within Miami-Dade County.W e find that an important aspect of gra nt applications is to "tell the story"behind the application that makes the submittal meaningful and compelling.In addition,in our role as a Consultant with FDOT providing oversight to the Miami-Dade TPO,BCC has helped coordinate the periodic reporting of existing gra nts such as the W alkSafe Progra m managed by the University of M iami as well as gra nts for municipal planning studies administered through the Transportation Alternatives Progra m.W e ar e therefore familiar with the reporting requirements of gra nts and will be able to ensure that the City remains compliant with any grants that will be received. Th e true mark of this experience is not the number of applications submitted,rather,the result of the applications. Below are a few recent examples of our grant work: ►Road to Zero Grant:M iami-Dade County DTPW received a gra nt of $150,000 from the National Safety County to develop a Vision Zero Dashboard and conduct a Local Community Liaison Pilot Project. ►Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant:M iami-Dade County DTPW received an HSIP Federa l gra nt to fund 3 Vision Zero Implementation Projects. ►Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A)Grant:Miami- Dade County DTPW received a Federa l grant for $16.2 Million Dollars to fund at 24 Vision Zero safety projects and additional safety planning activities.

For this contra ct,our Team w ould create a geodatabase of all municipal seaw alls,beginning w ith existing information available to-date.Th e geodatabase w ill contain all the relevant seaw all info rmation and be easily sear ched and cataloged for necessar y.M aintenance,monitoring of life expectancy and any repairs that may be needed.The database w ill hold critical info rmation about each seaw all,including repair plans,costs, funding sources,resiliency needs and condition assessment ratings.Th is can be coupled w ith general information about each structure,from geogra phic location,size,type of construction,and even dro ne imagery of each structure to docum ent current condition,in case of any catastrophic event, the condition w ill be w ell documented. A ny maintenance reports and inspections w ill also be ca taloged in the database,to assist in tracking current conditions.Th e database w ill be completely sear chable by selecting the structure on the map.Th e info rm ation in the geodatabase w ill have the capability to be converted to G oogle Ear th ".kml"files,so field inspect ors could use Google Ear th to pull any information about a bridge in the field,on a tablet or other portable device.The database w ill also be made into a w eb application that allow s sear ches,by not only the seaw all nam e,but any of the tra cked asset info rmation, again allow ing the client to better budget and track needed impro vements. O ur Team feels that this approach w ill serve the project well but can still be tailored to meet any adjustments the City may w ant.Th e information in the geodatabase w ill match the seaw all assessm ent system and naming convention established as par t of the project.It can include the information from the condition of seaw alls from the field evaluations,elevations, boundar ies of the seaw alls,stakeholder information and any additional information that City staff w ould like to include. ►Qualifications.BC C's services include the co mplete pro ject cycle from concept to design to construction to maintenance. C C holds FD O T Q ualifica tions ra nging from PD&E Studies to Roadw ay Design,all Structures W ork G ro ups thro ugh Concrete MIAMI BEACH Segmental,Inspection,Traffic Engineering,Traffic Operations, CE\,Engineering Contract Administration and Management, and Planning.Therefore,under one roof,BCC is able to support the City in whateverneed may arise thro ugh this seawall contract. "The Intangibles" Th e BCC Team would bring several intangibles to this co ntract. First,building upon experience is critica l to seawall projects, and our Team assembles firms and individuals that have based their car eers on the design and rehabilitation of coastal Florida structures including seawalls.Th at experience extends to include former FD OT staff that held key structural positions locally (FOOT District 6 Structures Design Engineer)to the state level (FOOT Central Office Assistant State Structures Design Engineer).Furthermore,BCC currently holds three FDOT Districtwide Bridge Repair co ntracts,including the FDOT District 6 Bridge Repair/Rehabilitation Plans Prepar ation contract loca l to Miami- Dade County.This would enable BCC to provide the City with a direct, real-time conduit to South Florida coastal structure rehabilitation technology and lessons learned.No other firm submitting for this project can provide such an overwhelming resource of relevant local,regional, and statewide experience. Seco nd,BC C's number one goal with this contract is not just to complete seawall projects.W e want to co ntinue to serve as a trusted advisor to the City and make this seawall contract the "G old Standar d"by which all other City contracts are compared.The key to our approach is our assigned Project M anager,Christian Aquino.Mr.Aquino and his same support staff assigned to this contract,recently delivered this exact same project to the City in the Jefferson Street End Seawall pro ject.As par t of that,Mr.Aquino developed what has become the City's Standar d Seawall Plans.That embodies Mr.Aquino's approach to this seawall contract --he hopes to continue to build upon the solid relationship that he has fostered with the City of Miami Beach over the past several years. Why choose BCC? Lastly,Miami is our home.This is where we live,work,and play.Simply stated,we will take ownership of this contract like no one else can.To us,this contract is personal.We are pro ud to say that.And we would be honored to continue to uphold our shared quality of life thro ugh this co ntract. 4119 Indian Creek Drive «roost EIIEEERIII }III)J24\III$JI)IIISIIIB3 JO!II!n0»±024-234-34) TAB 3 3.2 SUPPLIER DIVERSITY PLAN BCC is com mitted to fostering diversity and inclusion in our contracting practices,striving to meet all regulatory goals.O ur Team includes M anuel G .Vera &Associates,a Disadvantaged,minority-owned business,and M edia Relations Group,a Disadvantaged,and minority/women-owned business.W e actively engage w ith small,disadvantaged and minority businesses.
