Re: BID 7390: Construction Manager for MAX BRT Project - Cost Analysis
The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for construction management and materials testing
services for the MAX Bus Rapid Transit Project. Four proposals were received on May 23, 2012. The
proposals were evaluated, and all four firms were invited to interview in accordance with City and federal
procurement procedures. The CH2M Hill team was selected on June 6, 2012 by a team of six City staff
members.
City staff met with the CH2M Hill team to discuss the scope and fee on June 15, 2012, and an original fee
estimate was provided for $4,731,122. This included a 15% fee for CH2M Hill and a 5% fee on
subcontractors, plus expenses. At this meeting the proposed hours for each team member was discussed,
and a variety of reductions were proposed.
Negotiations continued by phone on June 21, 26, and 27 related to expenses, hours, and fees. After
several iterations, a final scope and fee was agreed upon by all parties totaling $3,835,369. This included
a 12% fee for CH2M Hill, and a 4% fee on subcontractors, plus expenses.

The Independent Cost Estimate (ICE) for this work was prepared on May 16, 2012 for $3,627,855. This is
5.7% below the final negotiated fee. This difference can be attributed to variations in the overtime hours,
outside direct costs, and material testing. The ICE was developed using the organizational chart provided
in the RFP of anticipated staff members to be provided by the consultant. The estimated number of hours
to perform these services was based on my experience managing (or consultants who are managing) other
large projects. Comparable rates of City staff and other consultants under current contract were used for

RE: Timnath Development Authority — Infrastructure Improvements (Ditesco)
Per phone conversation 6-11-12: Based on his understanding of our project, Grant felt
Ditesco was suited for this type of work. Grant has known Keith for 5-6 years. Keith
performed various CM jobs for Grant over the years and has done a great job. Republic
developed the Wal Mart site in Timnath, and because Timnath was such a small town,
Wal Mart required the developer provide off site improvements. Keith managed the 3.5
mile sewer line installation, and $2.5 million of infrastructure improvements on Harmony
Road. He coordinated this work, and took over all different functions that touched the
project. He coordinated with all parties. Grant said what he liked most about Keith was
his ability to see things beyond just the immediate construction activities. The value of
this project was $6 million, which was non-FTA funded. Grant indicated he and Keith
both underestimated the amount of work need to complete the projects, and felt Keith
was fair when negotiating the changes to the scope approximately 10%. Coordination the
Town should have done, Keith did, including a variety of utility coordination. The project
was delivered on time and under budget. No public meetings per se, but sewer line went
through 7 properties, 3 were good to work with, 3 not great, 1 awful. Connell and Keith
were great and professional when dealing with these folks. Ditesco was adequately
staffed for the project. They turned over all documents to the Town, both digital and hard
copies. This excellent documentation has come in handy many times since. The
documents were thorough, well organized and easily accessible. Grant would hire Keith
and Ditesco again, "definitely". Keith is very professional and does a very good job.
Grant said he was glad they hired him, and in fact did hire him again for another project.

RE: Various CSU Projects (Ditesco)
CH2M Hill Reference Check
By Erika Keeton, Special Projects Engineer
Per phone conversation 6-8-2012: Tracey worked with Keith on quite a few state funded
controlled maintenance projects. Keith managed a large sanitary sewer project totaling
$1.3M. This included design and construction management of C-basin, a 3 year 3 phase
project. Tracey stated Keith understands the state system very well. CSU utilized Keith as
the engineer and project manager, and he managed all aspects of the project. Keith
designed the project, managed the contractor, and provided all contract administration.
He has also managed a variety of other non -civil projects as the project manager. Tracey
indicated Keith works extremely well with CSU, and looks out for CSU as the client. He
holds the Contractor to the contract, keeps CSU's best interests at heart, yet tries to
maintain a group relationship. There have been no problems on any of the projects.
Keith stands behind his word. He found an issue with a lift station pump and covered the
cost of repair even when the project was out of warranty. He felt it was missed during
design and wanted to make it right. His paper work is always timely, and he keeps VERY
good records and photo documentation. At the end of a project Keith provided complete
documentation in whatever format CSU wanted. His fees were in line with the expected
budget, and he only has asked for more funding when design efforts exceeded 10% of the
design scope. There have been no additional construction administration requests. Tracey
said Keith has a "soft personality" and can work with everybody - but draws a hard line
when needed. He is very personable, and very professional. CSU would definitely hire
Ditesco again.

RE: DDA Alley (Ditesco)
Per Voice Mail 6-7-12: Overall I can tell you we've worked with Ditesco. They were our
Construction Managers on the Montezuma Fuller and Old Firehouse Alley projects, and
also involved during design, development, utility coordination, and construction
management on the West Myrtle Alley last summer. Very, very, high quality group of
folks. Keith Meyer is incredible; we use him regularly today on anything related to civil
engineering or construction management. Ditesco is going to help the DDA prepare bid
documents and specifications for deconstructing the Elk's building because it has
significant engineering components to take it down in a way to preserve the materials for
future use. I think Keith's approach to things is incredible, he's outside the box, and
solution oriented. He has all the right relationships with City Utilities and City
Engineering staff. I know he has been very interested in being involved in the MAX
project and knows it is a very high risk project. He has all the right skills and capabilities
to coordinate with CHM2Hill — the combination of those two groups is what the City is
going to need to manage this project.

RE: Water Reclamation Facility (Ditesco)
Per phone conversation 6-7-2012: Link said he can't say enough good things about
Keith. Keith works his people hard, but drives himself just as hard. The Mulberry project
is a testament to Keith's attention to detail, but Link was not familiar with the rest of the
team. Mulberry was a $26M construction project. Keith was the Resident Engineer, and
was 95% onsite during 95% of the construction. He adjusted his time accordingly to
manage his business and the project at the same time. He has adequate staff to run the
business in his absence. As Ditesco is the contract engineer for Utilities, Link mentioned
Utilities has light construction planned for 2013/2014 so Keith is available for this
project. "If you let Keith be in charge, it will be a good product."

RE: Gold Line (CH2M Hill)
Per phone conversation 6-11-12: Phil said he knows CH very well, and has worked with
them for a number of years. They did one of RTD's rail line EIS, and did a great job. The
Gold line is part of very unique public private partnership, including FTA. CH was also a
major sub contractor on the NW Rail EIS, and they did a very, very good job on that as
well. Phil has known Dan Heilig for many years, and several other principles. CH is a
great firm, and has done good work for RTD. While RTD does a lot of rail, they are
familiar with BRT (US 36 project) and CH is suited for the work. CH has not performed
CM for RTD lately, but has in the past, and were top notch in that area. Phil
communicates with many other government agencies around the country — and knows his
counterparts are happy with CH's CM work. They provide great public outreach, meet
the dbe goals, and Phil was happy with the overall community impact and small business
involvements. CH has a great track record. CH understands the FTA guidelines, which is
a MUST. The feds don't give you a billion dollars unless you manage it right. CH is
definitely one of the top firms in the industry in understanding federal guidelines and

federal compliance, including how to approach the feds and grant drawdowns. The
timliness of the EIS allowed RTD to start construction without any delays on their part.
CH orked with RTD well on scope changes, and were flexible when the funding didn't
work out as originally planned. They were very fair when negotiating the change orders.
The project was adequately staffed, and a provision was included to approve any
replacements. RTD has no issues with the staff provided, or any replacements, although
most folks were on the job for the duration. Phil would hire CH again, most definitely.
CH will always be at the top of the list, and will likely be getting more work with RTD
when they find more money. CH is a "First class organization".

RE: RTD Gold Line (CH2M Hill)
Per phone conversation 6-1 1-12: Ashland is currently the CM on the Eagle project, and
worked with CH2M Hill on the gold line and east corridor rail projects. CH2M Hill was
the Engineering Project Manager on the gold line, a 12 mile commuter rail project. CH
was contracted to complete the Environmental Impact statement and 30% design. The
project was a 4 year project totaling $18M. CH also completed alternatives analysis and
conducted numerous public meetings large and small. Going forward to the next phase of
Design build, Ashland felt the work done by CH was of greater quality, and superior to
the other companies working on the east corridor. CH's diligence and professionalism
has shown through.
John Spencer was Ashland's direct counterpart on the engineering side of the project.
John was very thorough, diligent, and Ashland enjoyed working with him. They did have
differences on occasion, but easily worked through any issues. The project was FTA
funded and John did the FTA reporting/tracking, and provided support and delivery of
various stages, but more on the engineering side. The last FTA submission was 6 dvd's of

information and FTA actually complained it was too much information. John has also
performed in a PMO capacity, but not on this project. Everything was submitted to FTA
on time and on schedule, despite a number of curve balls due to railroad real estate deals
that fell through. CH had to re -design the alignment based on field negotiations, and was
still able to meet all requirements. Dan Heilig was a consultant for RTD, and Ashland
actually worked for Dan for a short time. He said Dan has always been a solid individual.
Ashland felt CH is qualified for this type of work, and although his project was design, he
felt the responsibilities were similar. CH is very conscientious, very organized, and
would have no problem with performing CM duties. There were scope changes, and these
were pretty easy to negotiate. CH bent over backwards to re -negotiate — and actually
came in under budget despite 4 or 5 significant changes. The project included 4
jurisdictions, and regular meetings were held with stakeholders. CH was very good
working with those folks and communicating on a professional level. Ashland would hire
them again — definitely. Staffing levels were adequate. He said he was very happy with
their performance would love it if CH2M Hill was on the current project.

Mason MAX BRT Protect
Project Construction Management Services June 17, 2012 thru April 30, 2014
Understanding
The City of Fort Collins is pursuing construction of a Bus Rapid Transit project along the Mason Corridor from south of Harmony
Road to Cherry Street in Fort Collins, Colorado. The project is funded through multiple local sources with primary funding
coming from the Federal Transit Administration Small Starts Program. The project includes a new guideway, multiple bridge
structures, stations, retaining walls, earthwork, paving, freight rail reconstruction and site restoration. The project also includes
a new bus maintenance facility, transit center and pedestrian crossing structures.
The project has been designed by multiple consultants working for the City including Michael Baker Inc., Aller Lingle Massey,
and other subconsultants. Various parts of the project including the main BRT guideway have been bid and are in various
stages of review and award. For the various construction parts, the City is anticipating approximately $40 million in construction
value with an overall project budget of $87 million.
As the project proceeds to the construction phase, the City desires to supplement its existing workforce with specific expertise to
assist in the project construction management, contractor oversight, quality assurance and quality control testing for the project.
Specifically, this contract covers the MAX BRT, South Transit Center and Bus Maintenance Facility construction management.
Construction Scope of Work
The MAX Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project is a proposed north -south BRT system in the central core of the City of Fort Collins,
Colorado. The MAX BRT is located just west of and parallel to College Avenue (US 287), one of the busiest arterials within the
City and the entire North Front Range region. The project corridor extends from Cherry Street on the north, to approximately'/<
mile south of Harmony Road, with a total length of five miles.
The project contains three main components that include: the Mason Corridor, the South Transit Center and the Maintenance
Facility Expansion. The Mason Corridor is proposed within an exclusive guideway for 2.8 miles, with the remaining 2.2 miles
intermixed with street traffic on portions of McClelland Drive and Mason Street. Additionally, there are two bridge structures and
multiple retaining walls along the MAX BRT route as part of this project. Components also included in the Mason Corridor
portion of the project are: signing and striping, intersection improvements, various utility improvements, thirteen stations and
stop locations, landscaping, irrigation, traffic control, and guardrail installation. The South Transit Center comprises of a 4,300
square foot transit center, complete with related site work, landscaping, parking and driveways. The Maintenance Facility
Expansion includes construction of a 16,240 square foot addition to the existing building, an approximately 65,620 square foot
concrete driver training area, and a 680 square foot addition to the Chassis Wash Facility, plus minor interior and exterior
renovations.
Along the entire length of the corridor, the BRT runs parallel to existing Burlington Northern and Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway
tracks. At varying locations, the BRT system is proposed within a combination of properties owned by the BNSF, the City of Fort
Collins, Colorado State University (CSU), and private land owners which will require extensive coordination efforts. It is
anticipated that the MAX BRT service will begin operation in the first quarter of 2014. The BRT project includes the Mason
Corridor construction plans provided by Michael Baker Jr, Inc. and the South Transit Center and Maintenance Facility
Expansion plans provided by Aller Lingle Massey Architects P.C. Reference to the MAX BRT incorporates the Mason Corridor
South Transit Center and the Maintenance Facility Expansion.
