SERVICE PROVIDER 'S Scope of Work is attached hereto as Exhibit A.1 . Rl V 114838-6958-3880 v3 DRAFT 1/27/15 A-3 EXHIBIT A.1. 3. SCOPE OF WORK With the continuat ion of the City's Graffiti Removal Service program , Temple City recogn izes the need to continue this vita l service to a vibran t bus iness and residential community. To this end , Woods Maintenance Serv ices will cont inue its current work plan to maintain the areas in a state of cleanliness and to offer concentrated , speedy and consistent serv ice through the balance of the contract term . Since Woods Maintenance Services current ly has the contract in the City, we are well acquainted with the specific needs, problems and idiosyncrasies , and can quickly address them . At all t i mes during the execution of this work, WMS will follow best management practices (BMPs) for all duties incorporated into th is contract. PROTOCOLS As the current Contractor in the area , there will be no need to "ramp " up to bring the areas into a clean or acceptable standard . Our trained crews will continue their da ily routine per the contract specifications . This crew works Monday through Friday, and is always available for emergencies , seven days a week. Upon arrival to the City, our crew will drive the lengths of the main thoroughfares , known hot spots and the alleys looking for graffiti , and removing it immediately, or noting its location for later removal due to vehicle obstructions , too many pedestrains , or anything that would not allow for us to do the work safely and effectively. Work orders that have come to us via phone call or email will be placed in the appropriate order, allowing the crew to most effectively abate all incidents . Having removed graffiti in the City for the past 8 years , we have the standard colors used most frequently pre-mixed and ready to be applied. Once all the color matched paint out graffiti has been abated , the crew will move on to the tags that require pressure washing. Finally, the technician will handle all tags that require chemical removal. We have found, especially for this project, with our 8 years of prior experience, that this work plan is the most effective and allows for the most possible work to be done on a daily basis . Of course, if there is any racist , sexually explicit, or vulgar graffiti found , those incidents will be immediately abated . Woods Ma intenace Services , Inc. has sufficient equipment, as detailed on Attachment 4 , and should the need arise during the course of the contract to purchase or lease new equipment or vehicles, we have the capital available to make said purchases very quickly . In spite of the very infrequent use of either of our high lift bucket trucks during the course of the 8 years we have worked in Temple City, both are available anyti me a graffiti tag would require either of their use . One of the important aspects of any graffiti program is having the knowledge and the right equipment and experience to tackle the problem . Woods Maintenance Services/Graffiti Control Systems uses a combination of methods to abate graffiti , starting with t he least damaging process : 9 M th d & T h . e 0 s ec mgues This will include all previously Color matched pa inti ng for Painted Surfaces painted substrates such as wood , each specific site and custom metal, block walls , stucco , bri ck, county co lors for county curbs, chain link fencing . property These w ill include glass windows , Treated primarily wi th eco- Non Porous ceramic tile , road signs , t raffic friendly chemical washes , Surfaces control boxes , light standards pressure washing and the judicious use of soda bicarbonate blasting . Included here will be natural Pressure wash with eco friendly Porous Surfaces masonry substrates that have not chem ica ls, hot high pressure already been painted , concrete waster blasting . We do not use light standards , sidewalks , curbs, sand blasting UNLESS it is poles , bus shelters and/or absolu tely necessary benches . SAFETY & QUALITY CONTROL Great care will be taken in protecting surrounding areas, utilizing plastic sheeting and drop cloths when required . If spraying pa int would risk overspray upon veh icles or property, either the task shall wait for a more opportune time, or areas shall be hand painted to preclude such damage . Sand , soda and any residue from cleaning and/or painting operations shall be cleaned up immediately by Contractor, restoring the surface and area to its original condition , and removing any potential liab ility problem or exposure . When necessary, the technici an w i ll obtain signatures from property owners or managers on Release and Consent Forms , a ll owing us legal access . Our supervisors conduct weekly tailgate safety meetings every Monday before the week begins to discuss the safety topics and listen to any suggestions on how to best approach the work , to ensure that all safety measures are taken , and to make sure all crew members are on the same page . Should any Woods employee receive a complaint from a constituent , merchant , or City employee , we immediately address it. Regardless of fault, we w i ll always effort to correct the problem safely and efficiently first, and then will examine the facts of the issue . We have found that no matter who or wha t is to blame , if we solve the problem first , trust between the const ituent and Woods , and the City by impl ication , is ensured. When an issue takes place in the field , we instruct our crews to make 2 important phone calls : the first is to the immediate supervisor, and the second to the office . Of course, if there are any injuries apparent, appropriate authorities are immediately called (911 , Fire Dept, Law Enfo rcement). By calling the office immediately, and having the issue documented as close to its occurrence as possible , many prob lems are avo ided . When and if the compla i nant calls to follow up , we can accurately and professionally address their concerns , and cor rect anything that needs to be corrected . We have found by speaking directly to the counterparty, we can minimize further issues. 10 Safety is always the primary concern-not only for our employees , but for the public at large. Every task we perform is done with safety as the paramount miss ion . All employees are trained in safe and proper use and maintenance of all relevant equipment and tools , both in the warehouse and in the field prior to working alone . Rest assured, when Woods Maintenance Services, Inc. is working for you , the City is guaranteed crews that are skilled , safe , respons ible, and respectful. Another important element to ensuing that the scope of work is performed successfully is to have a v igourous quality assurance program . This is an extremely important element to our work plan . To this end, all staff members must attend and pass a comprehens ive in-house training program , prior to being qualified as a Woods Maintenance Services Technician . Prio r to beg i nning work, and immed iately afte r hiring , the personnel record is examined to substantiate all submitted facts and information . A voluntary drug test is administered and forms are signed allowing random drug tests during employment. The driving record is examined for any noticeable failings . Once the preliminary, administrative work is completed, the employee is issued uniforms, gloves , safety goggles , hard hat, safety vest , rubber boo t s, an Employee Manual, and several guides to equipment and procedures . Some of th is is "homework", and must be completed before formal t raining begins at our offices , and then the job site. The training is usually broken down into six d istinct areas, though there may be some overlapping : 1. Safety and operating procedures for high pressure washers 2 . Safety and operating procedures for gas powered spray equipment 3. Safe vehicle operating procedures and included emergency/safety equ ipment 4 . Graffiti removal techniques on 12 different types of surfaces 5. Use of chemicals , reading an MSDS , emergency procedures and BMPs 6 . Public relations, expected behavior, image and dealing w ith the pub li c The training process , both i n the office with a veteran supervisor and out in the fi eld , takes two weeks . Upon complet ion of this training period a new hire is allowed to work solo, but still supervised . Quality Control is one of the most important aspects to any successful company--and it is no different fo r our firm . From t he initial training of all employees , the technic ians are reminded over and over that it is the quality and not the quantity of work performed that sets us apart from our competition . Both the Owner and General Manager of the company take active roles in quality control as well as the immediate supervisors to protect the sta t us and reputation that our firm has earned over the last 43 years . This feedback is imperat ive because it helps us weed out the below par technic ians as well as promote and reward the superior technicians . The safety and well being of all Contractors ' employees and the citizens in general are our primary concern. All work undertaken conforms to all ru les, regulations , o rdinances and statutes of the City , County, State and Federal Governmental offices . All proper traffic control methods are utilized , as requ ired on the public right -of-way, with flashing arrow boards, cones and barricades. The concern is also for the public at large , as we will be working closely w ith those affected by the trash and grime along the sidewalks and alleys and the graffiti in the neighborhood as well , to see that their businesses are not disrupted . Woods Maintenance Services has already developed , had approved , and has a working module of the Safety Program as mandated by SB 198, which is available for review 11 by any public agency. All vehicles carry first aid kits , fire extinguishers , MSDS sheets , and BMP protocols for the services we will be performing. All employees are provided with uniforms and all necessary and required safety gear fo r their protection . In addition , every employee , when hired, is photographed and given an employee ID that they must carry with them at all times while working . Our normal Quality Control formula is to spend approximately 2 hours per week per each technician out in the field . This does not include the time spent by the senior superv isor or the on -site supervisor in their regularly scheduled duties (i.e., overseeing the day-to-day operations and work flow). Enrique Lopez , Senior Supervisor, will typically survey the contracted areas twice to three times per week, though his schedule is flexible to insure that he can attend to any concerns that may arise. For the past 8 years , he and Jeff Woods have provided quality control for the Temple City Graffiti Removal contract. All work orders and requests for service, whether they are emailed or called into our office , are imputed by our office support staff. Job orders are taken and entered into our proprietary database and mobile application , Write On Right Off (WORO), and tracked through the entire process , until completion . WORO is compatible with TAGRS and all work is transferred seamlessly from our system into the TAGRS system used by the LASD . (See Attachments for Write On Right Off samples). At month-end , all completed work orders are compiled into an invoice and sent to City staff. Our billing follows universally accepted protocols for accounting practices . In addition to the "honor'' system , WMS has supervisors out in the field seven days per week. These supervisors report to Memo Acosta , our firm wide Field Quality Supervisor. Guillermo Acosta has worked on various crews during his 17+ year tenure with WMS , and knows how to perform all tasks in which Woods Maintenance Services contracts , including the graffiti removal services that are provided under this RFP . By having superv isors out surveying in the field , WMS can verify that staff technicians are on the job, doing what they are contracted to do and also allows us the time to do Quality Control. Supervisors are armed with printouts of the prior days (weeks) work and have the opportunity to not only check current jobs, but to verify the completion of previous assignments . When supervisors cannot make it to a particular site that day, vehicles are equipped with in dash T -Mobile Sync Up Fleet, that allow us to monitor the exact location of any of our fleet at any time . All quality control reports, work orders, and requests are kept in a file in the office for easy access for any interested party to inspect. 12 r-------------------------- Type of Removal Sandb las ting Water Blasting Water Blast ing w/Bak ing Sod a Pa in ti ng (Ma tching Paint) Chemi ca l/Solvents Oth er: High Graffiti (a bove 20 ') Ot her: Protect ive Coating s Type of Surface Non-Poro us Pai nted Po ro us Em erg ency Call-O ut Location Definition EXHIBIT "B" COMPENSATION Minimum Cost $25.00 75 $25 .00 125 $25.00 125 $17 .00 200 $19.00 100 $5 0.00 50 Additional Cost /sq . ft . $0 .33 /sq . ft . /s q. ft . $0 .20 /sq . ft . /sq . ft . $0 .20 /sq . ft . /sq. ft . $0 .085 /sq . ft . /sq. ft . $0.19 /sq . ft . /sq. ft. $1.00 /sq . ft .
