MANAGING SUBCONSULTANTS PACE regularly uses a variety of subconsultants for various aspects of specific project work. Project subconsultants that we typically use include geotechnical engineers, landscape architects, traffic specialists, and wetland biologists. We have established relationships with a number of firms in these specialized areas of expertise and work with them on a regular basis. Subconsultants are always selected on an individual project basis, with consideration of their experience in the project area and with specific approval of the client. Our approach to managing subconsultants has allowed us to be successful in the projects mentioned under our prior experience. Our project management approach mostly centers on communication. PACE Project Managers hold regularly scheduled meetings throughout the duration of each project with our subconsultant team and the client. During the project kick-off meeting we establish communication protocols and provide team member points-of-contact for all subconsultants. During this time we also establish formats for e-mail correspondence, design criteria, technical reports, drawings, specifications, and cost estimates. Emails that deal with critical issues are copied to all appropriate people, and meeting minutes are distributed for comment prior to finalizing so that everybody’s impressions of what was said, or agreed to, are reflected. This really minimizes any misunderstandings and the problems that can follow. We find that this communicative and collaborative approach to team management results in successful projects that meet our client needs. MANAGING BUDGETS & SCHEDULES The PACE team is proud of our history of completing projects on-time and budget. Our staff is guided by years of experience in the practice of administration, scheduling, accurate scoping, and attention to budget and timetable, allowing us to deliver project after project on schedule and within budget. Managing Budgets PACE uses Deltek Vision, a project management database to track and monitor active projects. The information shown in this database includes the job number, Project Manager, internal team members, subconsultants, budget by task, project milestones, and due dates for each phase of the project. Using this program, our Project Managers have real time access to total costs incurred to date along with the balance remaining to complete the work. Budgets can also be tracked by subtotal for specific tasks or subconsultants. The Deltek software is capable of weekly, biweekly, or monthly reporting, depending upon the needs of the client. Managing Schedules PACE's Project Managers develop, maintain, and update project schedules using either Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel. The schedule defines tasks in the scope of work. Specific milestones, including progress meetings and review and comment allowances, are identified in the schedule. These schedules are easy to develop, simple to monitor, and an effective method of critical path scheduling. Schedule updates are delivered in PDF format with monthly status reports. In addition, PACE’s Principals and Project Managers have biweekly project status meetings to discuss their projects and define staffing and resource needs. During this meeting, project metrics are reviewed in advance to ensure there is sufficient staff and resources available to meet project deadlines.



PERMITTING KNOWLEDGE Permitting and environmental compliance are two of PACE’s specialties. Our Planning Department is completely familiar with all facets of current federal, State, and local permitting requirements. As on-going engineers and planners for a variety of public agencies, we routinely design and implement projects to comply with the myriad of environmental regulations facing facilities and site development. This may include environmental assessments, biological assessments, ESA consultations, and other requirements associated with NEPA and SEPA compliance. Our work with water, wastewater, and stormwater utilities has given us a comprehensive understanding of the regulations associated with marine and freshwater environments, wetlands, and other critical areas. As regulatory requirements expand and become more complex, NPDES requirements and biological evaluations have become an increasingly important aspect of our on-going work. It is not enough to know what the municipal code and development standards require, but more importantly the ability to apply those requirements consistently and fairly across all permit applications. This not only provides consistency in the development community, but also protects the client from appeals and lawsuits resulting from inconsistent interpretations of the code. By working with numerous agencies with differing approaches, PACE has developed skill in applying consistent reviews and inspections. We have excellent relationships with permitting agencies, and can facilitate permit approval by: • Initiating early agency contacts to define needed permitting forms and processes. • Developing a thorough understanding and strategy for needed permits. • Providing complete and thorough permit applications. • Making early submittals to avoid potentially lengthy review / approval processes. Permit Acquisition PACE staff are regularly responsible for acquisition of permits across the full range of the permit spectrum and compliance with land use codes and regulations. From the simplest categorical exemption through active participation in environmental impact analyses, we have the expertise and experience necessary to assist clients in obtaining the required permits. Our range of services in this area includes boundary adjustments, land use variances, SEPA compliance, and coordination of permits required for the construction of projects. These services are provided on an on-going basis for the hundreds of public works and private development projects we complete each year, and have given us a complete and thorough understanding of local, state, and federal codes and permit requirements.



SUSTAINABILITY DESIGN EXPERIENCE PACE has been designing and implementing sustainable design tools long before they were referred to as low impact development (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs). We understand how and when to use them, and what types of performance can be expected. We often combine two to three types of sustainable design solutions in order to take advantage of unique site and soil conditions to minimize the impacts and costs of the required facilities, all while meeting the overall sustainable design goals. With experience delivering sustainable and restorative designs, from daylighting and restoring local streams to providing LID to treat stormwater runoff, the PACE team is ready to provide innovative, integrated, and cost effective sustainable design solutions. PACE's surface water and civil engineers are experienced with using a combination of sustainable design techniques including porous pavement design, rain gardens, rainwater harvesting, green roofs, bioretention facilities, infiltration facilities, TESC BMPs, resource protection, and natural drainage systems. We specialize in utilizing an integrated design approach that works closely with landscape architects, environmental scientists, local jurisdictions, and our clients to provide the best possible solutions for sustainable stormwater management and restorative design services. PACE is focused on providing design services that support our clients’ needs, healthy communities, and the environment. Finding ways to integrate development with the protection and restoration of urban resources is key to our shared success. Sustainable / Restorative Design Services • LEED Accredited Staff • LID Design • Hydraulic / Hydrologic Modeling for LID • Municipal Code Revisions to meet LID Goals • Stream Daylighting / Restoration • Stream Basin / Corridor Restoration Studies • Integrated / Multidisciplinary Design Approach • Environmental Restoration and Mitigation • Aquatic Habitat Rehabilitation • Riparian Restoration / Enhancement • Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Leads (CESCL) Relevant Project Experience Cedar River Watershed Headquarters Expansion & Education Center City of Seattle | Seattle, WA PACE provided an assessment of existing utilities at the City’s headquarters to assist in future expansion of operations and development planning. The existing water system, consisting of several wells and distribution piping, was assessed for capacity to serve projected needs resulting from the headquarters expansion and Cedar River Environmental Education Center addition. Numerous well-placed stormwater biofiltration swales provide both conveyance and treatment of parking lot runoff prior to overland dispersion. Trails and the water-powered drum installation add to the focus on the surroundings. The existing on-site sewage disposal system was expanded to provide future capacity and a new pressure drainfield. A new on-site sewage disposal system treating 3,000 gallons per day from the education center includes surge tanks to moderate weekend peak flows, sand filters for enhanced treatment appropriate to the watershed location, pump stations, and pressurized drainfield.



Ravenna Park Stream Restoration City of Seattle | Seattle, WA Initiated by the community's desire to daylight Ravenna Creek from Ravenna Park to Lake Washington, Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation and King County Metro co-funded this project that daylighted approximately 850 LF of Ravenna Creek within lower Ravenna Park. PACE was part of a multi-disciplinary team that provided public process, design, engineering, survey, environmental studies, permitting, and coordination with the various permitting agencies and park users. During the design process, five public workshops were held to solicit public opinion and develop a consensus on the preferred solution. The final design included a diverse stream channel with numerous stream habitat structures, restoration of wetlands, naturalized contours, native vegetation, improved pedestrian access including bridges and overlooks, and art, all while maintaining use of the adjacent baseball field. Mercer Slough Environmental Educational Facility City of Bellevue / Pacific Science Center | Bellevue, WA PACE was responsible for survey and civil engineering for site development for this facility, which supports the educational mission of the City of Bellevue and Pacific Science Center related to stormwater, water use, and the adjacent wetlands. PACE was responsible for site grading, utilities, parking, access to the adjacent arterial, and confirming ADA requirements on the sloped site. The project achieved LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold certification. LID techniques for stormwater management include pervious concrete for walkways and central plaza, and green roofs on several buildings. Parking lot stormwater runoff is treated by a variety of vegetated features using composted amended soils in multiple small rain gardens, filter strips, and vegetated swales. Practices / Tools Used to Establish and Meet Sustainable Design Goals Listed below are a couple of examples of practice PACE has utilized to meet sustainable design goals: • PACE was civil engineer for Sherman Elementary School in Tacoma. The site was located on an old sawmill with

several feet of unsuitable material. PACE specified removal of the unsuitable material and had the contractor use recycled concrete for fill to bring the site back up to grade. The recycled concrete is a good structural fill material, plus we are reusing (recycling) a common construction material.

• PACE has been involved in the design of numerous pervious pavement and UIC projects. High groundwater is often a limiting factor in the design of these facilities. This groundwater can be a challenge in providing both flow control and water quality treatment in accordance with the Western Washington Stormwater Design Manual. However, the manual does provide guidance in utilizing the in-situ soils for water quality treatment if certain chemical characteristics are in place. PACE has worked closely with geotechnical engineers to evaluate the chemistry and other soil properties that allow us to utilize the existing soils without having to bring in several feet of new media, greatly reducing the overall project costs and impacts.

QA / QC PROGRAM Effective QA / QC Is a Philosophy That Encompasses Every Phase of the Project Quality is a characteristic of our engineering designs that can only be achieved by a dedicated and professional team who are continually focused on regular and diligent attention to detail. Effective QA / QC starts at the beginning of the project; it includes project scoping and contracting processes and is continued through each month of the project by the use of written monthly reports. As required by law, all plans, specifications, and project budget / cost estimates are reviewed and signed by one of our senior licensed engineers. PACE endeavors to maintain a working environment that is conducive to open and constructive communication, which allows each team member to present ideas or suggestions in order to provide the client with a functional and efficient facility design. Biweekly internal staff meetings are held where tasks, budgets / level of effort, and schedules are reviewed. Results of each meeting are documented. As an extension of our working environment, our QA / QC process is not promoted as the responsibility of any one individual but the responsibility of every team member. It is our Project Manager’s responsibility is to closely adhere to PACE’s QA / QC plan and ensure that each team member is doing their part to provide the client with an accurate and complete product. Our QA / QC process requires that multiple senior professionals review all documents, correspondence, and final products. The professionals that are selected as QA / QC reviewers are specifically selected for each unique issue, task, and project. QA / QC Plan Our dedication to quality mandates a commitment from each staff member that true attention to quality control and quality improvement will be maintained throughout the project. This investment is an integral part of each analysis and decision that goes into creating a finished product. PACE has a formal QA / QC plan with a designated Principal to perform QA / QC reviews prior to client submittals. In addition, we make sure that we customize the plan for your project, this includes QA / QC and oversight by Principal Engineers and Project Managers with back-up from PACE President and Principal-in-Charge, Marty Penhallegon, PE. PACE team members routinely utilize written quality control documents as a matter of good business practice and professional pride. This existing framework of quality control procedures will be compared to the design guidelines used by our clients, and modified as necessary. One of the key initial steps in the process is to define our client expectations with regard to level of detail for each task. The resulting document will be distributed to each PACE team member (after review and input from the client) and will serve as the on-going standard by which our work will be conducted and evaluated. Quality control documents typically include sections devoted to: • Definition and codification of what quality means. • Responsibility for quality management. • Early attention to GIS and mapping standards, both internal and client-mandated. • Use of accepted or verifiable field practices and procedures. • Knowledge and application of standardized specifications. • Shared and codified technical standards. • Checklists for use in review of analysis. • Documentation of all modeling parameters, assumptions and results. • Mandated, constructive review of deliverables by senior staff.

•


H. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Approach to QA / QC PACE encourages a continuous and active dialogue with our clients and other key project stakeholders and participants. The experiences and perspectives of these external sources are critical to achieving a high quality project that meets all the original expectations regarding larger project goals, budgets, and scheduling. From experience we know that these external perspectives need to be actively pursued and often don’t occur automatically. Accordingly, project progress, production, scheduling, and budget controls are updated weekly through our project management system and we encourage the clients to become an active QA / QC participant through the review of these regularly generated project tracking and communication tools. PACE also provides a biweekly emailed summary of subconsultants’ progress, issues, work to be completed, budget, etc. All of the above effective tracking tools provide the Project Manager with what they need to identify, respond, and correct any potential work scope, budget, or scheduling challenges immediately. Finally, PACE conducts a final QA / QC review by a Principal prior to issuing final work products to the client or bidding the project.
