interest, which would conflict in any manner with the performance of the Services.

in this transaction or in the business of Consultant, and that if any such interest comes to

shall immediately make a complete, written disclosure of such interest to City, even if such

individual for which or whom Consultant shall bear legal liability) in the performance of
this Agreement, except to the extent the Damages arise from the active or sole negligence
or willful misconduct of any of the Indemnitees, as determined by final arbitration or
court decision or by the agreement of the Parties. Consultant shall defend the

of the Indemnitees’ choice, and shall pay all costs and expenses, including all attorneys’

Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) #24/25-501 for Various On-Call Services, in accordance with the Scope of
Services indicated herein. It is the City’s intent to create a qualified Consultants list with multiple Consultants.
Responses to this SOQ are electronic only and no paper submittals will be accepted. Consultants wishing to
submit a response the SOQ, must be registered as a Consultant with the City through Planet Bids. Registration
can be accomplished by visiting the City website at https://www.cityofrc.us/your-government/procurement.
Only those responses received from registered Consultants will be accepted. Responses must be submitted by
the named Consultant that has downloaded the SOQ this information is indicated in the bid system and provides
the ability to tabulate the responses in accordance with the named Consultants. Submitting a response under
a Consultants name that does not appear to be on the Prospective Bidders list will be deemed as non-responsive
and disqualify said response from further consideration.
1.2 DISCREPANCIES OR OMISSIONS
Consultants finding discrepancies or omissions in the SOQ or having any doubts as to the meaning or intent of
any part thereof shall submit such questions or concerns in writing to the applicable Purchasing contact
identified herein in Section 3.1. All questions must be in writing and no responsibility will be accepted for oral
instructions. Addenda issued in correspondence to this SOQ shall be considered a part of this SOQ and shall
become part of any final Contract that may be derived from this SOQ.
1.3 CONTINGENCIES
This SOQ should not be considered as a contract to purchase goods or services but is a Request for a Statement
of Qualifications in accordance with the terms and conditions herein and will not necessarily give rise to a
Contract. However, SOQ responses should be as detailed and complete as possible to facilitate the formation
of a contract based on the SOQ response(s) that are pursued should the City decide to do so.
Completion of this SOQ form and its associated appendices are a requirement. Failure to do so may disqualify
your SOQ response submittal. Consultants must submit signed SOQ responses by the due date and time as
specified herein. Consultants will be considered non-responsive if the above requirements are not submitted
as requested.

Any scope of services, contingencies, special instruction and/or terms and conditions applicable to this SOQ and
any purchase order derived thereafter shall be effective as of the issue date of a purchase order for the
requested work (the “Effective Date”), and shall remain in full force and effect until sixty (60) days after the City
has accepted the work in writing and has made final payment, unless sooner terminated by written agreement
signed by both parties.
1.4 DISPOSITION OF MATERIAL AND CONFIDENTIAL OR PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
All materials submitted in response to the SOQ solicitation will become the property of the City and will be
returned only at the City option and at the expense of the Consultant submitting the SOQ response. A copy of
the SOQ response will be retained for official files and become a public record. Any material that a Consultant
considers as confidential but does not meet the disclosure exemption requirements of the California Public
Records Act should not be included in the Consultant’s SOQ response as it may be made available to the public.
If a Consultant’s SOQ response contains material noted or marked as confidential and/or proprietary that, in
the City sole opinion, meets the disclosure exemption requirements, then that information will not be disclosed
pursuant to a written request for public documents. If the City does not consider such material to be exempt
from disclosure, the material may be made available to the public, regardless of the notation or markings. If a
Consultant is unsure if its confidential and/or proprietary material meets disclosure exemption requirements,
then it should not include such information in its SOQ response because such information may be disclosed to
the public.
1.5 KNOWLEDGE OF REQUIREMENTS
The Consultants shall carefully review all documents referenced and made a part of the solicitation document
to ensure that all information required to properly respond has been submitted or made available and all
requirements are priced in the SOQ response. Failure to examine any documents or instructions will be at the
Consultant’s sole risk.
Consultants shall be responsible for knowledge of all items and conditions contained in their SOQ responses and
in this SOQ, including any City issued clarifications, modifications, amendments, or addenda. The City will
provide notice of any changes and clarifications to perspective Consultants by way of addenda to Planet Bids;
however, it is the Consultant’s responsibility to ascertain that the SOQ response includes all addenda issued
prior to the SOQ due date.
1.6 RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
The issuance of this SOQ does not constitute an agreement by the City that any contract will be entered by the
City. The City expressly reserves the right at any time to:

segregable portion of a record shall be available for inspection by any person requesting the record after

companies are hereby notified that any and all materials submitted in response to this SOQ are subject to
California's Public Records Act. The City's receipt, review, evaluation or any other act or omission concerning
any such information shall not create an acceptance by the City or any obligation or duty to prevent the
disclosure of any such information except as required by Government Code Section 6253. Companies who
submit information they believe should be exempt from disclosure under the Public Records Act shall clearly
mark each document as confidential, proprietary, or exempt, and state the legal basis for the exemption with
supporting citations to the California Code. Pursuant to California Law, if the information is requested under the
Public Records Act, the City shall make a final determination if any exemption actually exists for the City to deny
the request and prevent disclosure. The City will withhold such information from public disclosure under the
Public Records Act only if the City determines, in its sole discretion, that there is a legal basis to do so.

Please clarify if the reference information

that Exhibit H, Reference Worksheet, states

checks for this RFQ.

Could the City please clarify if all categories
should be combined and submitted as one
Response File and also submitted separately
under their respective category tabs? Please
clarify if reference information should be
included with the 6 projects requested.
Considering that Exhibit H, Reference
Worksheet, must be complete and
uploaded into the Planet Bid system under
the “Response Type” section identified as

4 Does the City want resumes for our
proposed sub-consultants?
Yes, submit resumes for key personnel,
including subconsultants as necessary.
5
Section 4. SOQ Submission Requirements
and Response Format lays out that a single
document for Sections 4.1 through 4.8 must
be submitted as the "Response File." There
is no Section 4.8. Is this section missing from
the RFQ? Additionally, what does the City
want submitted as the separate Section 5
tabs? Can this be clarified so that we make
sure we are compliant?
There is no Section 4.8, only sections 4.1-4.7
are required to be submitted.
Quals, resumes, and the org chart submitted
within Sections 4.1-4.7 should be
representative of all disciplines you are
proposing on. Only the description of the
offered scope of services for each discipline
that you are proposing on should be
submitted as separate tabs under Section 5.
6
Due to the holidays and there being several
pursuits due at the same time, can you
please extend the deadline by one week, to
January 13?
Yes, the deadline will be extended until
January 13, 2025.
7 What is the maximum dollar amount of the
contract (annually/or life of contract)?
The initial contract award (over the life of the
contract) will be $1 Million for each selected
consultant. However, there is no guarantee of
work or compensation, and the City reserves
the right to increase or decrease this limit if
needed.
8
How many firms is the City looking to award
for each of the listed disciplines on page 11
?
The City does not have a number of
consultants set for each discipline but is
looking to award to multiple consultants for
each category provided that they meet the
requirements of the RFQ and that their
reference checks are in good standing.
9 Is there a page count limit, and if so what
does not count towards it?
There is no page count limit.

Dear Ms. Perez,
As the City of Rancho Cucamonga (City) closes in on celebrating fifty years since its incorporation, this

of your partners.
RICK is an award-winning, multidisciplinary firm with a rich history of responding to complex
infrastructure challenges throughout Southern California and the western United States. We have
partnered with clients to create resilient communities and infrastructure through innovative and dynamic
solutions since 1955. With 11 office locations, including Riverside, more than 400 employees,
and over 100 licensed/certified professionals, we offer more than a dozen services, including
civil, traffic, and transportation, surveying and mapping, landscape architecture, and plan checking.
As a multidisciplinary firm, our team has extensive communication and coordination protocols and

talent spread across our company who will provide additional management, field, and technical support.
With the current average tenure of RICK employees just shy of 15 years, we provide exceptional team
continuity across multi-year contracts.
Beyond our in-house capabilities, we have teamed with regional industry leaders to provide selected
scope for this vital work. We carefully choose our RICK Team members based on their experience
relevant to the project scope and our past successful working partnership with the firm. Our

ground running once selected.

Enclosed, you will find our qualifications for Surveying and Mapping services, Civil Engineering services,
Traffic Engineering and Transportation Planning services, Development Plan Checking services, and
Landscape Architecture services for the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s various On-Call disciplines, in
one SOQ. Each discipline provides a summary of our qualifications and in-house services as they relate
to the service. Full resumes of key personnel, client references and example projects are provided to
demonstrate RICK’s qualifications, experience, and capability to perform the requirements of the City.
Client references are included from each service to establish credibility and offer the City direct access
to clients who can validate our expertise, professionalism, and commitment to delivering high-quality
results.
Approach
RICK understands the purpose and objectives
of an on-call contract. We understand that each
client’s objectives are unique, and we prioritize
close collaboration to address concerns and
provide guidance tailored to achieving desired
outcomes efficiently and within budget constraints.
Our approach is broken into two phases: Planning
and Staffing and Performance.
Qualifications and Experience
Our team has extensive experience working with
public agencies on both standalone projects and
as components of as-needed contracts. We have
delivered comparable services to neighboring
cities such as Rialto, San Bernardino, Azusa,
Norco, Corona, Moreno Valley, Menifee, Big Bear,
etc. Furthermore, we successfully completed a
major waterline infrastructure replacement in the
City of Azusa for the Northrop Grumman Facility
Campus.
Availability of Staff
Our multidisciplinary team is fully prepared to
prioritize this project. We have the capacity
to manage the workload effectively without
compromising the quality or timeline of ongoing
projects.
Current/Ongoing Projects
RICK has a strong and steady workload with our
current/ongoing projects throughout the company
and disciplines. These projects include both public
and private clients where our multiple disciplines
continuously collaborate.
Understanding the Project Scope
With the scope of services clearly defined, RICK’s
experienced team will remain vigilant in delivering
the City’s intended on-call goals, with limited
disruption to the community, all while proactively
mitigating schedule and budget creep. With our
robust, locally-based Inland Empire staff and a
depth of in-house services, RICK can swiftly pivot
and respond to scope modifications, if requested
by the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
An Extension of the City
We view ourselves as an extension of the City’s
team, working collaboratively to understand and
address the community’s needs. By integrating
seamlessly with City staff and stakeholders, we
ensure transparent communication, proactive
problem-solving, and a shared commitment to
achieving project success. RICK’s in-house
experts as well as trusted subcontractors: Design
West (electrical engineering), C-Below (utility),
TYLin (structural), and National Data and Survey
Services (traffic control) are a team of skilled
professionals uniquely positioned to meet the
demands of any project. RICK operates as a one-
stop, solution-focused team, extending the City’s
capabilities. We’ll guide this efficient team, allowing
City staff to focus on other notable priorities for the
community.
Project Management
Clarity, alignment, focus, resource allocation,
quality control, time management, communication,
and collaboration are just a few of the values
WHO WE ARE. Our proposal illustrates our team’s specialized experience and
technical competence, proposed project approach, key personnel experience
and commitment, and local knowledge and experience. This executive summary
serves as an overview of our qualifications for Surveying and Mapping, Civil
Engineering, Traffic and Transportation Engineering, Landscape Architecture, and
Plan Checking Services.

RICK’S COMMITMENT TO DELIVERING ON THE CITY’S VARIOUS

proven QA/QC process, and meticulous risk mitigation strategies, we present
innovative solutions, reduce project risk, and ensure a successful outcome. With
over six decades of relevant experience and a proven track record of exceeding
expectations, RICK stands ready to elevate the City’s transportation infrastructure
while empowering City staff to focus on broader community enhancements.
RICK applies to each project we undertake.
We present solutions to challenges and reduce
unforeseen risks through our thorough project
planning practices, which include engaging
project stakeholders and the community, regularly
monitoring and reviewing progress, providing
documentation, and reporting regularly to the City.
This approach is what makes RICK a sought-after
firm with a reputation for consistently exceeding
expectations.
Successfully Managing Multiple Projects Simultaneously
Through our 69-years in business, RICK has
gained experience working and managing multiple
projects simultaneously. Using our approaches
to projects and project management, our team
members coordinate and communicate flawlessly
ensuring quality work on all projects.
Subconsultant Management
RICK assumes a central role in managing and
overseeing our subcontractor partners for on-call
projects. We will assure they meet the standards
outlined to perform the professional services, have
sufficient skill and expertise to deliver, uphold the
necessary licenses/certifications required, and
maintain the insurance requirements throughout
the duration of the on-call service contract. Once
our team is assigned an on-call contract, RICK will
ensure the team is set up to meet project timelines,
quality standards, and safety regulations. Effective
communication is key, as RICK must maintain an
efficient flow of accurate information, and promptly
address any issues that may arise. RICK will also
oversee and support the project documentation,
change orders, and billing to maintain transparency
and accountability.
In summary, working on behalf and alongside the
City of Rancho Cucamonga, RICK acts as the
linchpin of project management, orchestrating the
harmonious collaboration of subcontractors to
achieve the successful execution of the various
on-call civil engineering services.

METROPOLITAN WATER DISTRICT OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIAOn-Call Land Surveying and Mapping Services
RICK was selected as one of 10 firms to provide technical and
professional services to the Metropolitan Water District (MWD). The
scope included: title search; federal field note research; county
map research; site reconnaissance; control surveys; GPS surveys;
aerial mapping; survey analysis; preparation of Records of Survey;
encroachments disclosure; and installation of final monumentation to
document MWD permanent easements throughout MWD’s distribution
system area covering several counties. These permanent easement
documents were prepared to the positional standards of the 2005
National Accuracy Standards for ALTA-ACSM Land Title Surveys.
In addition, RICK was responsible for providing permanent horizontal
survey control monuments. These records were documented and
described on MWD designation sheets, with photos illustrating
surrounding landmarks. Information provided for each photo included
file name, date, latitude, longitude, and azimuth of the photo location.
A total of 35 task orders were awarded to RICK, of which 11 were fully
managed and completed in the Riverside office. Although multi-agency
research was challenging at times due to the lack of centerline and
monument information, RICK’s services were completed within the
negotiated time frame of the contract terms.
A featured task order involved a boundary search to locate an adequate
number of monuments to create a Record of Survey in Palo Verde, CA.
This task order also involved section break downs, a railroad line, and
monument ties set on farming water canals. The Gene Communications
task order involved aerial mapping near Parker Dam, CA. This project
included over 100 acres of aerial mapping and identification of the
direction of wires along the towers through the desert environment.
RICK survey staff refined final deliverables to highlight and accurately
identify extensive power lines throughout the desert site.

The RICK team redesigned a former elementary school on the west
edge of Lake Elsinore in Lakeland Village into a new community hub.
RICK developed the master plan for the 16.8 acre school site. From
there RICK designed Phases 1 and 2 that included the core areas
and outdoor spaces. Phase 3 is the addition of two little league sized
ballfields.
The Master Plan reimagined the existing site and provides the
framework for site improvements and programming opportunities,
including improved pedestrian and vehicular circulation, renovated
sports fields, large and small gathering spaces, children’s play areas,
shade structures, open park land, dog park, skate and bike park, and
additional parking areas.
Phase 1 was the renovation of the community center core areas.
This phase removed the existing asphalt and developed a pedestrian
oriented network of walks, planting areas, outdoor gathering spaces,
renovated existing shade structures, outdoor classroom spaces, parking
area improvements, and entry area upgrades.
Phase 2 was the development of new active and passive spaces. The
design included outdoor activity areas, shade trees, tensile fabric shade
structures, three pickleball courts, seating areas, picnic tables, outdoor
classroom area, sand volleyball court, and children’s play area. Fire
access and vehicular connections were creatively woven into the site
along with a connection to the existing parking areas.
Phase 3 improvements are the renovation of the existing ball fields
area. The improvements include two new little league sized fields with
artificial turf outfields, protective fencing, shaded bleachers, earthen
berm seating areas, and new parking lot. A DG trail is located around
the perimeter of the fields with active workout stations along the way. A
new concession/restroom building and pedestrian plaza is also a part
of this phase.

Work Plan
Our approach to managing projects is rooted in a commitment to excellence,
collaboration, and precision across all aspects of civil engineering, survey,
landscape design, traffic and transportation planning, and plan checking services.
With 69 years of experience delivering successful projects across the Southwest,
we have developed a proven project management methodology designed to
ensure quality, control costs, meet schedules, and exceed client expectations.
On every assignment, we consider ourselves an extension of City staff. Drawing on our extensive
experience working directly with multiple municipalities as consulting engineers, designers, planners, and
surveyors, we have developed the expertise required to successfully execute on-call contracts in the best
interests of the communities we serve. With a local office and a robust team of qualified professionals,
we are poised to respond promptly to citizen concerns, City priorities, and elected officials’ needs. Our
team provides expert guidance and facilitates design and operational services to ensure projects meet
critical funding allocation deadlines. Furthermore, the comprehensive RICK Team is experienced in, and
understand the importance of, early coordination among agencies, whether between local municipalities,
Caltrans, or other jurisdictions.
Throughout RICK’s 69-year history, we have successfully performed a variety of task order services
as part of on-call contracts for many municipalities and government agencies. Additionally, with a local
office less than 20-miles from the City, we can demonstrate 30-years of Riverside experience and have
delivered on-call contracts for the City of Banning, City of Corona, City of Moreno Valley, City of Norco,
and City of San Bernardino, to name a few. A comprehensive list of on-call experience is provided in
section 4.4 Firm Experience/Qualifications.
Approach to On-Call Contracts
As-needed service contracts may require multiple disciplines, which means the
need for smooth coordination and transparent communication while managing
multiple task orders simultaneously. As a multi-disciplinary firm, we thoroughly
understand the process and importance of, not only the on-call contract, but
the task order execution, to meet financial goals and schedule deadlines.
Based on our experience with similar contracts, RICK has developed
a successful approach in two phases: 1) Planning & Staffing and 2)
Performance. The following page goes in-depth on specific tasks each phase
includes.

Section 4.7 / Project Management Approach
Approach to Project Management
RICK has built a solid reputation for delivering quality projects on time and within
budget. Central to this success is our rigorous project management approach,
which is structured around five key components:
Communication and Coordination
Coordination and open communication
between the City and the RICK Team is
critical to the contract’s success and will
begin at the project onset. RICK staff will
meet with the City to discuss the project goals,
tasks, and deliverables and develop a project
timeline. Communication protocols and
expectations for collaboration and knowledge
transfer will be established during the Project
Kick-off Meeting. Lines of communication,
including our efficient organization structure and
project-proven practices, support successful
schedule maintenance and budget control.
Project Planning & Scheduling
Detailed planning at the beginning of the
project is essential to reduce risk, ensure
quality, and maintain schedule and budget.
Upon receiving the Notice to Proceed, the
RICK Team will create a detailed schedule using
Microsoft Project to organize the overall project
tasks and budget, and track actual versus
scheduled work and costs. Critical-path items,
manpower resources, and cost estimates will be
documented and tracked.
Cost Controls
We take seriously the financial
restrictions that exist for our clients and
avoid, in every possible way, making
any changes to the project budget. Our
clients frequently note the dedicated efforts made
by RICK staff in this regard. We believe that the
best way to control costs is to establish a well-
defined project scope in collaboration with our
clients. Determining our clients’ needs and goals
up front and organizing the project to achieve
those specific goals drastically reduces changes
as the project progresses.
RICK cost control measures are accomplished
through an effective combination of tracking and
management activities. These activities include:
[Weekly expenditure tracking, report/compilation,
report review by PM using Deltek Vision
[Effective staff supervision
[Continuity of staff assignments
[Continuous project communication
[Timely resolution of project issues
[Monthly detailed reports (expenditures vs.
budget; completion progress vs. plan; etc.)

Section 4.7 / Project Management Approach
Quality Control
The RICK Quality Assurance/Quality
Control (QA/QC) Program is
comprehensive and based on proven
practices and years of experience. With
more than six decades of experience, RICK has
earned a reputation for producing high-quality
work, as evidenced by its many long-term clients.
No matter the project size, we are committed to
understanding our clients’ needs, meeting the
quality requirements and standards specified, and
surpassing our clients’ expectations.
As a matter of practice,
RICK promotes a
continuous emphasis and
commitment to quality
control through all project
phases. This is facilitated
by attention to the
Company’s Manual on
Quality Control Standards,
periodic quality control
seminars, peer reviews,
and staff performance
reviews throughout the year. These measures are
applied to all levels of work, including project
scheduling, internal reviews, record keeping
documentation, and plan preparation.
For each project, a quality control plan is
prepared by the Contract Manager, maintains
the requisite checklists. Quality control reviews
are coordinated by our QA/QC Manager and
conducted by an independent Project Manager
throughout the development of a project.
Continual Improvement
and Project Closeout
To ensure continual improvement, best
practices are identified, and lessons
learned are documented by the project
team throughout the project life-cycle. This project
data is shared across RICK’s multiple disciplines
and are integrated into the company’s institutional
knowledge base, so the experience gained from
one project can benefit future projects and improve
company capabilities.
At the end of each task order, we will have a close-
out meeting to discuss project performance, needs
for improvements, and lessons learned that can be
used on future task orders with the City.

Project Planning and Scheduling
Efficient Resource Management
On-call contracts demand the ability to balance multiple, often overlapping assignments. A detailed
planning at the beginning of the project is essential to reduce risk, ensure quality, and maintain schedule
and budget. Upon receiving the Notice to Proceed, the RICK Team will create a detailed schedule using
Microsoft Project to organize the overall project tasks and budget, and track actual versus scheduled
work and costs. Proper scheduling ensures that staff, equipment, and materials are allocated effectively,
avoiding bottlenecks and maximizing productivity. Critical-path items, manpower resources, and cost
estimates will be documented and tracked.
Responding Immediately to Unpredictable Needs
On-call contracts often require quick mobilization for time-sensitive tasks, such as addressing citizen
concerns, emergency repairs, or funding-driven deadlines. They also require a team that can be flexible
and accommodate changing priorities. RICK’s dynamic scheduling and project management tools,
coupled with our experience and pool of resources, ensures our team can pivot without losing momentum
and meet the City’s expectations without delay.
Our Landscape team of seven professionalsallow us to prioritize client requests, for exmaple last minute
changes to construction documents that are scheduled to go out to bid or providing a sketch that explains
a solution to a condition that needs to be addressed.
Project Tracking and Performance Monitoring Procedures
RICK generates an invoice each month showing the contract amounts by individual contract line item,
amount utilized to date as both a percentage and dollar value, and the amount remaining. Our invoices will
include a Project Status Report that summarize the following:
[Work performed for the billing period
[Forecast of work performed in the upcoming billing period
[Scope of work changes made previously
[Budget status
[Schedule status
[Input needed from the City of Murrieta
[Other items as necessary
If multiple task orders are being completed simultaneously, RICK’s Contract Manager suggests that a
monthly meeting, at a minimum, be held at City Hall with the City’s Project Manager to communicate
each task order status following an agenda that covers each of the above Project Status Report items for
each task order. RICK’s Contact Manager has followed this procedure in the past and found this process
successful in keeping the City abreast of status and needs of each task order. A single summary letter
report is also presented that highlights the key status and action items for each of the task orders. For
each task order the Tools, Procedures, and Techniques outlined below are followed.
RICK has built a well-known a reputation for delivering quality projects on time and within budget. A
key component of our effective project delivery is the regular use of a series of project control tools,
procedures, and methods. This approach provides a basis for project planning, scheduling, scope and
budget monitoring, document control, cost estimating, and accommodating changes. We combine the
effective use of tracking tools and management activities into an established system to maintain optimal
project controls. Each of our project control tools are discussed below in more detail.

Project Progress Reporting Procedures
Management Activities:
[Effective staff supervision and communication
[Continuity of staff assignments
[Regular team meetings and resolution of issues/ action items
[Prompt meeting minutes identifying action items and assignments
[Consistent communication between the Contract Manager, Quality Assurance and Quality Control Plan
(QAQCP) Manager, and Task Order Managers
[Efficient cross-checking between disciplines as detailed on QAQCP
Management Tools:
[Setup a detailed project schedule at the initiation of work utilizing Microsoft Project
[Tracking critical path items and forecast dates
[Monitoring progress of actual versus scheduled work
[Forecasting resource needs to meet project manpower requirements
[Actual costs versus budgeted costs cash flow tracking
[Project cost estimate maintained to have up to date project data
Typical Task Order Project Controls
Once the Project and Task Order has started the initiation phase and has begun in earnest, the
scope, schedule, and budget is accurately monitored and controlled. The tools used enables RICK
to effectively coordinate with the City to have a continually available progress database from which to
monitor and make adjustments to the project milestones, if necessary. Using a combination of data
from our accounting system (Deltek) of tracking time sheets and task order billings integrated with one
of our project planning systems (e.g. Microsoft Project), reports can be issued both graphically and in
spreadsheet formats to demonstrate the status of the above categories.
Schedule Monitoring and Control
The RICK Team has a number of scheduling tools available, such as Microsoft Project. We can tailor
the schedule to be task detailed or simply milestone oriented based on the specific project and desires
of the Rancho Cucamonga Project Manager. The schedule will be used at team meetings to monitor
progress, and will be updated monthly by the Task Order Manager.
Project Control Project Closeout
The final milestone in project controls is the project closeout. This activity is no less important than
any of the others since it provides direction on items such as final accounting, plans distribution, and
electronic file storage. The RICK Team utilizes a comprehensive plan to closeout a project and identifies
the parties responsible to do so.
Document Control
RICK stresses project document control guidelines for every given task order or project to internal
and external staff. These guidelines establish general procedures for filing and distributing contract
documents, correspondence, meeting agendas and minutes, and other materials associated with a
task order or project. The Contract and Task Order Manager will be responsible for implementing these
procedures. Subconsultants may be required to send all relevant correspondence.

The PSR’s/PR’s contained the following key
information: project description, purpose and need
for the project, primary goals and objectives, detailed
alternative analysis, preliminary traffic analysis
including safety and accident history, preliminary
environmental conditions, evaluation of each
alternative based on factors such as cost, feasibility,
environmental impact, and benefits, schedule and
timeline of the project, potential right of way needs,
stakeholder and public involvement, identification of
permits, and a risk assessment.
Preparation or review traffic engineering reports, traffic impact analysis, traffic signal design plans, and transportation planning studies or project specific traffic related issues analysis.
Traffic Impact Analysis
RICK Traffic staff has extensive experience
preparing traffic impact studies for all types of
private development projects, including residential,
industrial, institutional, office, and commercial
projects, as well as traffic studies required for public
agency CIP projects as part of the environmental
review process.
In addition to the preparation of traffic studies,
through on-call contracts with the City of Murrieta,
City of San Bernardino, and County of San Diego,
RICK Traffic staff has reviewed and conditioned
hundreds of traffic studies submitted to the agencies
as part of an applicants development plan submittal,
tract map submittal, or parcel map submittal. Our
Traffic Division has experience conducting reviews
of various types of studies, from site access studies,
parking studies to large development traffic impact
studies and VMT analysis. RICK has a traffic study
review checklist that ensures the reviewer verify
key traffic study elements such as traffic volumes,
trip generation and operations analysis results,
VMT’s and significant impacts. For intersection
and roadways deemed a significant impact, RICK
can also help verify that any proposed mitigation
measures are feasible and can be constructible.
Comments to traffic studies are clearly summarized
in a letter or memo format along with any applicable
redlines to the traffic study report.

Traffic Signal Design
RICK has designed hundreds of traffic signals, for
both private developers as conditions of approval,
and for public agencies when signals become
warranted or are a part of a CIP project. When
designing the signals, key components that are taken
into consideration during the preliminary design are
the location of loops, phasing, detection (video or
loop), location of signal heads such that they are in
compliance with the California Manual of Uniform
Traffic Devices (CA MUTCD), type of controller and
software, and interconnect to adjacent traffic signal.
Jefferson Avenue and Town Square, City of Murrieta
Plan checking for agencies is a common service
typically requested from City as-need contracts.
Being familiar with the CA MUTCD, AASHTO, and
City’s design guidelines for roadways and traffic
signals, RICK has plan checked hundreds of CIP
and private development design plans, including civil
improvements, signing/striping plans, signal design
plans, traffic control plans, signal interconnect plans
and street lighting plans. RICK has developed a plan
checking list for various design plans that helps the
engineer efficiently complete the plan checking tasks
within schedule. The review redlines or comments to
the plans are typically provided through a Bluebeam
Studio session. The plan checks typically go through
three review cycles until final approval. Less complex
plans may be approved within the two review cycles.
Example Traffic Signal Plan Check
Review traffic impact analysis and scoping agreements related to subdivisions or development projects.
Scoping Agreement
When a project application (or a pre-app) is received
by planning staff of a public agency, RICK Traffic staff
has assisted with the scoping of the necessary traffic
analysis to support the environmental determination
and General Plan consistency of a proposed
development project. The scoping agreements
typically include a screening assessment of both
Level of Service (LOS) and Vehicle Miles Traveled
(VMT). If the project screens out of LOS and VMT
analysis, then the scoping agreement is typically
filed and no additional analysis is required. If the
LOS and/or VMT analysis is not screened out, RICK
Traffic staff has the experience and expertise to
assist in scoping the project study area, intersections,
segments, study scenarios, and any other items
necessary for a complete and through assessment of
the proposed project, i.e. signal warrant analysis, turn
lane analysis, and/or VMT analysis.
Traffic Impact Analysis Review
Through on-call contracts with the City of Murrieta,
City of San Bernardino, and County of San Diego,
RICK Traffic staff has reviewed and conditioned
hundreds of traffic studies submitted to the agencies

Perform traffic signal warrants, pedestrian studies and other warrants/studies as requested.
Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
As-part of our as-needed services contracts for local
agencies, RICK staff has experience preparing traffic
signal warrant analysis, typically at the request of a
resident or community group, following the criteria
outlined in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices (MUTCD). A typical traffic signal
warrant analysis includes the following data:
Traffic count data is collected (turning
movements as well as daily counts and speeds)
during a typical weekday, when area schools are
in session
Collision data is obtained, to determine if
patterns have been established that could be
susceptible to correction by the installation of a
traffic signal.
Once the data has been obtained and the analysis
performed, typically for the 8-hour, 4-hour, peak
hour and collision warrants, RICK Traffic staff will
summarize the results in a summary memo, which
will include documentation of the existing conditions
(including photos), the counts performed (volume
and speed), results of the warrant analysis, and a
recommendation, following the requirements of the
California MUTCD.
Pedestrian Studies
Occasionally, a pedestrian analysis is necessary
at an intersection or along a roadway segment, to
determine if any improvements are necessary to
maximize the safety of pedestrians and bicyclists.
RICK, along with our subconsultant NDS, has this
experience. Typical pedestrian studies that RICK has
performed include the following:
Pedestrian/bicyclist counts at an intersection,
for use in multi-way stop and signal warrant
analysis.
Determination of high senior/child intersection
crossing locations, for use in increase timing
parameters for flashing don’t walk intervals.
Sidewalk/bike lane connectivity or gap studies,
for use in determining locations where sidewalks
or bike lanes are needed to fill in missing links.
Parking Studies
RICK’s Traffic Division has prepared parking
calculations and shared parking studies for private
development projects, to determine the required
number of parking stalls for either single use
developments, or multiple tenant commercial
developments. Through our teaming with our traffic
counting subconsultant, NDS, we have also prepared
parking demand and occupancy counts, for use in
the shared parking study reports.
School Related Circulation
Through our on-call contract with the City of Murrieta,
our Contract Traffic Engineers have regularly worked
with the school district School Resource Officers
(SRO’s), the Safe Schools Director, and the Police
Departments Motor Officers assigned to each
school, to best progress parent drop-off and pick-up
circulation within the City’s streets adjacent to each
school. Our staff has prepared multiple work orders,
to install regulatory signage and striping within the
streets, has offered recommendations to the schools
for signage and striping within their school sites, and
has prepared maps for the district to send out to
parents at the beginning of the school year, to notify
parents of each drop-off/pick-up area.

include a review of each roadway segment to be
updated, to verify if any significant changes have
occurred since the previous survey was performed,
collection of traffic volume, speed, and collision data,
and preparation of a speed survey analysis table and
associated maps, documenting the data collected for
each segment and recommended speed limits,
following the criteria outlined within the California
Vehicle Code (CVC) and the California MUTCD.
Additionally, RICK Traffic staff has prepared the City
Council reports for speed ordinance updates, and
presented the discussion items to Council at the
initial and second readings of the ordinance updates.
Typical Speed Ordinance Update Map
Intersection Control Studies
RICK Traffic staff has experience preparing ICE
Analysis/Reports (now referred to as ISOAP
analysis), most recently for intersection of Otay Lakes
Road/State Route 94 within the County of San Diego,
as well as at the intersection of North Park Way/33rd
Street/Boundary Street/I-805 SB Ramps within the
City of San Diego. As part of the analyses, RICK
performed sight distance analysis, all way stop
analysis, traffic signal warrant analysis, capacity
analysis, collision analysis, ran truck turning
templates, prepared cost estimates for each
alternative, prepared an alternatives analysis to
identify the best solution for the intersection, and
prepared reports documenting the findings and
identifying the preferred alternatives. The analyses
were prepared following the requirements of the
California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD), Caltrans Traffic Operations Policy Directive
13-02: Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE), the
Caltrans Highway Design Manual, and the National
Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)

Multi-Way Stop Analysis
As-part of our as-needed services contracts for
local agencies, RICK staff has experience preparing
multi-way stop analysis, following the criteria outlined
in the California MUTCD. Traffic count data is
collected (turning movements as well as daily counts
and speeds) during a typical weekday, when area
schools are in session; collision data is obtained,
to determine if patterns have been established that
could be susceptible to correction by the installation
of a multi-way stop; and a sight visit is performed,
where both corner sight distance and stopping sight
distance are measured and documented. Once the
data has been obtained and the analysis performed,
RICK Traffic staff will summarize the results in a
summary memo, which will include documentation of
the existing conditions (including photos), the counts
performed (volume and speed), results of the sight
distance evaluation, results of the warrant study, and
a recommendation, following the requirements of the
California MUTCD.
Provide traffic signal or alternatives, safety studies, travel time studies and miscellaneous traffic engineering services.
Safety Studies
Our Traffic division staff has experience preparing
safety studies, as part of multi-way stop analysis,
signal warrant analysis, and Highway Safety
Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant projects. The
analysis typically begins with the collection of
collision data, and then the creation of collision
diagrams, to assist in determining if a collision
pattern exists. Once a pattern is identified,

improvements to mitigate the pattern are determined,
based on our experience, as well as by utilizing the
Federal Highway Safety Manual.
Travel Time Studies
Utilizing the Tru Traffic software, RICK Traffic staff has
performed travel time studies for roadway corridors,
to document existing travel time along a corridor, and
then once new coordination timing parameters are
installed, to document the “after” travel time along a
corridor, to determine the extent of the improvements.
For the City of Murrieta’s Traffic Light Synchronization
Program (TLSP) project along Murrieta Hot Springs
Road, the westbound travel time was reduced by
17% during the AM peak period, and the eastbound
travel time was reduced by 21% during the PM peak
period.
TLSP Project – Murrieta Hot Springs Road
Review and/or Preparation of Other Miscellaneous
Traffic Reports
In addition to our experience described below related
to signal timing, we also have experience working
with an agency’s Public Works Maintenance
Department, to improve conditions within an agency’s
roadways. This also includes the preparation of
written work orders, providing direction to
maintenance department staff, to install any
necessary regulatory or warning signage or striping
improvements as a result of an engineering analysis
or sight visit. As part of the work orders, the specific
requests are listed, as well as any municipal code

Traffic Control Plan Preparation
RICK has extensive experience preparing traffic
control plans for roadway improvements, such as
widening, construction of raised medians and
pedestrian ramps, and for utility work. Projects
undertaken by the Traffic Division design staff are the
preparation of plans for both small and large scale
projects, from as small as the traffic control
necessary for the installation of new pedestrian
ramps at an intersection, to the installation of miles of
pipeline. With larger scale projects, coordination
between contractors is key, as is coordination
between various jurisdictions. It is also important to
understand the type and size of equipment that will
be performing the construction, as provisions will
need to be made to get the equipment in and out of
the traffic controlled work zone.

Scope of Services
Our Approach to Consulting Support Services
RICK knows and understands the purpose and objectives of a consulting service contract. Throughout
our company’s history, we have successfully performed a variety of task order services for as-needed
consulting contracts for many academic institutions, municipalities, and government agencies in our region.
We thoroughly understand the process and importance of not only the as-needed consulting contract, but
the process to execute and deliver task orders to meet financial goals and schedule deadlines. On-call
consulting service contracts also require the need for and coordination of multiple disciplines, as well as
managing multiple task orders simultaneously.
Based on our experience with as-needed plan checking contracts, RICK has developed a successful
approach in managing multiple plan check task orders and the process can be outlined in two phases:
1. Planning & Staffing Phase and 2. Performance Phase
1. PLANNING & STAFFING PHASE
The RICK Team will:
[For the initial plan checking task order RICK will
meet with the City either virtually or in person
to review required specific City of Rancho
Cucamonga standards and requirements, and
to review and obtain concurrence on our plan
checking check list. Each plan type will have a
separate check list we will follow and maintain
for consistency and efficiency.
[Each individual plan check task order will
be led by Rebecca Morris, PE with each
specialty component assigned to the RICK
Team discipline expert lead, for consistency in
checking and efficiency.
[If appropriate due to the plan check task order
complexity, we will assemble our key team staff
members and hold a scoping session where
key staff members participate in a brainstorming
session to achieve a complete picture of
requirements, the most efficient way to check
the project components to reduce engineering
fees and to achieve the project plan check
schedule.
[From this evaluation, review and understand City
concerns to be able to address them properly. A
plan check fee for the individual plan check will
be presented to the City.
[RICK has the ability to meet a 2-week review
for the first plan check, and a 1-week review for
subsequent plan checks thereafter until plan
approval. The City may adjust the review time
line on an as-needed basis depending on the
project size.
2. PERFORMANCE PHASE
The RICK Team will:
[For plan checking services, the individual
discipline documents will be separated from
the comprehensive project documents and
presented to each of the affected lead discipline
experts for their plan checking. An expected
schedule with the due date will be provided to
each of the lead discipline experts.
[During the process of performing the task,
prepare plan checking documentation
(checklists, supporting regulations and
guidelines, etc.) that can be used by the client
to make key decisions or to support design.
The project manager will monitor the project
schedule.
[If numerous plan checks are occurring
simultaneously we recommend meeting on a
weekly basis to review status, receive direction,
and concurrence as necessary on each project
plan check.

Typical Scope of Work - Methodology
Through our experience with as-needed engineering plan check contracts, we have developed the following
methodology to accomplish the work for a typical public works task, as follows:
Project Kickoff
Upon receipt of the task order Notice to Proceed,
a kick-off meeting will be held with City staff to
establish the scope of work, deliverables, team
meeting and public outreach requirements,
critical issues, constraints, and project schedule.
This will help identify project management/
administrative expectations. For plan checking
services this most likely will only need to occur
at the onset of our Contract to define checklists,
confirm City policies, and standards.
Design Plan Check
We anticipate plan checking services on projects that
consists of multiple documents and disciplines as
included below, such as Grading, Erosion & Sediment
Control, Sewer, Hydrology/Hydraulic Report, Storm
Water Drainage System, Water Quality Management
Plans, mapping, etc.
1. Hydrology and Hydraulics Reports Review
These reports will be reviewed in conformance
with the City of Rancho Cucamonga Municipal
Code and the San Bernardino County
Hydrology Manuals.
2. Grading Plan Check
Plans will be checked in conformance with
the City of Rancho Cucamonga Grading
and Drainage Plan Requirements. Key items
to review will be that the plan meets the
requirements set forth in the soils report,
erosion control measures depicted and
adequate, minimum grades met, offsite surface
drainage is contained, design matches the H/H
report, earthwork quantities appear appropriate,
pads with building outlines depicted (if
applicable), parking, streets, and driveways
depicted with appropriate typical sections.
Also, are retaining walls shown with correct
standard or structural calculations to support
their design. Check boundary conditions, are
offsite letters of permission required and does
the grading meet the setback requirements.
3. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan Check
Plans will be checked in conformation with
the current California Stormwater Quality
Associations (CASQA) handbook, City of
Rancho Cucamonga, and San Bernardino
County requirements.
4. Street Improvement Plan Check
Provide a review of roadway alignments
as they conform to the City of Rancho
Cucamonga - Engineering Department
Services Public Improvement Plan &
Subdivision Map Guidelines, and the Caltrans
Highway Design Manual. As appropriate and at
the City direction, RICK can also provide input
and guidance towards the implementation of
Complete Street Guidelines to incorporate
motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, children,
ADA, and public transportation, and as the
design relates to sustainable communities.
5. Water and Sewer Design Review
If project plans include water and sewer
facilities, RICK will coordinate with the
Cucamonga Valley Water District to verify that
their plan check component for water and
sewer is being performed.
6. Water Quality Management Plan Review
WQMPs will be checked for conformance with
the City of Rancho Cucamonga Municipal
Seperate Stormwater System (MS4) (Municipal
Code Chapter 19.20) guidelines, the San
Bernardino County Stormwater Program
Technical Guidance Document for Water
Quality Management Plans, the 2010 MS4
Permit for Santa Ana Region (Order No. R8-
2010-0036), the State’s General Construction
Activities Permit (Activities Order WQ 2022-
0057-DWQ NPDES No. CAS000002), and
USEPA guidance, “Managing Wet Weather
with Green Infrastructure; Green Streets,” in
a manner consistent with the maximum extent
practicable standard.

7. Mapping and Survey
RICK will provide plan check services for
land development related certificates of
compliance, subdivision and parcel maps,
lot line adjustments, street dedications and
or vacation document descriptions and plats
for technical correctness and compliance
with Subdivision Map Act, Business and
professions code and city ordinance.
8. Traffic
Plan checking for agencies is a common
service typically requested from City as-need
contracts. Being familiar with the CA MUTCD,
AASHTO, and City’s design guidelines for
roadways and traffic signals, RICK has plan
checked over hundreds of CIP and private
development design plans, including civil
improvements, signing/striping plans, signal
design plans, traffic control plans, signal
interconnect plans and street lighting plans.
RICK has developed a plan checking list for
various design plans that helps the engineer
efficiently complete the plan checking tasks
within schedule. The review redlines or
comments to the plans are typically provided
through a Bluebeam Studio session. The
plan checks typically go through three review
cycles until final approval. Less complex plans
may be approved within the two review cycles.

Scope of Services
UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESSES, PROCEDURES, AND COMPLEXITIES OF THE WORK
ENVIRONMENT
RICK understands and is thoroughly familiar with
all facets of project development from initiation to
construction. We can comprehensively assist the City
with the following components of project delivery:
[Scoping: Preliminary studies to define goals
and alternatives; assess potential environmental
impacts and processes; begin public
participation; and perform preliminary design.
[Alternative Analysis: Develop and define
alternatives; perform site planning and utilize
environmental analysis; prepare reports; assess
impacts; and identify mitigation needs.
[Public & Environmental Approval: Circulate
design documents; respond to comments; and
obtain agency approvals.
[Design: Prepare construction documents for
construction, support permitting, and obtain
approvals; account for costs and potential
escalation.
[Contract Documents: Provide contract
document, advertise, bid and award support.
[Construction Administration: Provide
management, support, or inspection during
construction.
[Project Close-Out: Complete files, as-builts,
permit close outs, maintenance plans or training.
PROJECT FOUNDATION
RICK establishes the project foundation at the
onset of landscape architecture projects. The
project foundation begins with a kickoff meeting
with City staff, the Project/ Contract Manager and
support staff. At this meeting, the following items are
discussed and determined:
[Establish the Project Development Team (PDT)
and key stakeholders
[Introduce RICK’s Key Project Personnel
[Prioritize project goals
[Establish a preliminary project schedule
[Determine meeting method (i.e. in-person,
teleconference), frequency, dates, place, and
time of PDT meetings
PROJECT DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Project Preparation
At the onset of each project, RICK will obtain existing
record information and as-built documentation. The
following information needs to be obtained prior to
beginning design:
[As-built drawings
[Plans for on-going/future adjacent projects (if
applicable)
[Engineering and Environmental Studies
[Topographic Surveys
In addition, it is essential that the project design
team review all previous reports prepared for the
project (or project area) such as any technical
reports/environmental documents. The design team
will review and identify the criterion that needs to
be incorporated into the design.
