Site work for a road / highway in Manteca, California. Conceptual plans call for site work for a road / highway.

The City of Manteca (City) is soliciting proposals from firms for construction management services for the Traffic Signal Update Project HSIPL 5242 (034) (CIP No. 17058) (Project) in the City of Manteca. Selection will be based on qualifications only. The City will negotiate with the highest ranked firm for scope and fee. The DBE goal for this project is 16%. The following summary of the scope of services is not inclusive and is only intended to be used as an indication of the minimum services to be provided. It is the City's expectation that the Consultant shall include in their proposal all work necessary for the completion of the Project, and no future amendments to a contract would be required. The following is a list of the City's expectations and shall be incorporated into the Consultant's contract. 1. Be on site to observe whenever the contractor is working. 100% field coverage is expected. 2. Know the project plans and specifications. The CM should know the documents better than the contractor. Understand the work as designed or know where to research the documents for information. 3. Respond to all contractor's questions/claims no matter how small they may seem. 4. Talk with the contractor's superintendent/foreman about the day's planned activities and what his goals are for the next day. Follow up on any outstanding issues, submittals, etc. 5. Think ahead of the contractor and anticipate his work in the upcoming weeks. Remind the contractor to complete submittals, permits, etc. in advance of the work. No last-minute requests for shutdowns or City assistance, unless it's an emergency. 6. Do not do the work for the contractor. City is not going to have its consultants take on this liability. City understands the need to keep the contractor on schedule but not by taking shortcuts. 7. Recognize the need for specialized inspection and schedule inspection/testing. 8. Observe the field activities and discuss with superintendent/foreman any discrepancies. Repeat frequently throughout the day. 9. Review document logs and check on status of RFIs, submittals, etc. in review and follow up with the appropriate parties. 10. Review new RFIs and submittals from the contractor and determine if the document should be forwarded to City and/or the design consultant or whether the CM can provide response. Also, check for completeness of information before forwarding. If incomplete, either return the document to the contractor or hold and wait for supplemental information from the contractor (the received date doesn't start until the supplemental information is received); if the working relationship with the contractor is not good, return it immediately. 11. All RFI and submittal responses must be reviewed by City before being issued to the contractor. 12. When receiving resubmittals from the contractor, review the previous comments and determine if the contractor has addressed all comments. The CM will need to review these at some point in order to properly inspect the installation in the field. If the resubmittals are not complete, return them to the contractor. 13. Prepare a daily log electronically and email a copy to City for review every 1 to 2 days. Provide photos and videos as necessary to document the field activities. 14. Obtain written approval from City for all field orders, potential CCOs and change orders before issuing to contractor. 15. When issues arise, take the position that provides the greatest benefit to the City. 16. Review all proposals for CCOs received from the contractor before start of negotiations. City gets the final approval of the negotiated price before any CCOs are formalized. 17. Review all backups for field order work before the CCOs are formalized. 18. Review initial draft of the progress billing request prior to submittal to City's project manager. Review the CM's comments with the project manager prior to returning them to the contractor. 19. Review the contractor's record drawings on a monthly basis and use the same timing as the schedule updates. If the drawings are not complete, recommend to the project manager an appropriate withhold amount. 20. Return all phone calls from project management staff on the same business day. 21. Provide City with all known scheduled time off during the project duration. Review time off impacts to project and project coverage with City at least one weeks in advance, or as soon as practicable.
