Sage Telecommunications Corp. of Colorado, LLC
Response to City of Fort Collins Purchasing
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
7546 DIRECTIONAL BORING & TRENCHING
Sage is excited to have the opportunity to respond to the Request for Proposal for
Directional Boring & Trenching. Sage is the current contractor for underground and
directional bore services under the P113 LP Electrical Services Underground
Program. The City has renewed that contract for the maximum extension periods
which has enabled Sage to become very familiar with the intricacies of the work
orders as well as the overall project. Sage also held the P762 L&P Utility Electric
Services Underground Program that started in August 2000 and was extended for
several years.
Most recently Sage was acquired by Dycom Industries Inc. This enables Sage to
have the benefits of acting as two companies, a regional company that is customer
focused, and a billion dollar corporation with many resources.
Sage has a long tenure in providing services to the City and looks forward to your
response to our proposal.
We acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 1 for this proposal.
Sincerely,
Roger Hoaglund
President
Sage Telecommunications

Section Specific Responses
II. SCOPE OF WORK
Answer: Sage currently performs under these conditions and complies with these
conditions.
Pricing for items 14-16 are included in the rate schedule.
III. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Answer: Sage currently performs under these conditions and complies with these
conditions.
G. OSHA: Contractors are asked to provide their “OSHA Lost Time Rate” and
“OSHA Recordable Incident Rate”, accompanied by the Contractors OSHA 300
log for the last full year. Contractors must also provide a letter from NCCI
showing the current year Experience Modification Rate.
Answer: See Section 5.
H. Waste: Boring waste will be disposed of according to all local, state and federal
regulations. Contractors are to provide a description of how they propose to
dispose of their boring waste.
Answer: Sage has been in contact with the EPA as well as local landfills to help
determine the best manner of spoil disposal. The contents are benign since they
consist of local dirt and water. However, the presence of water from bore spoils
in landfills creates leaching of other material that pre-exist with such landfills.
We have found specific landfills that keep our spoils separate and open to the air
so that natural drying conditions renders them safe.
I. Traffic Control: Awarded Contractor is required to provide traffic control for
projects. Contractor will itemize traffic control on each scope of work based on
the pricing submitted with the Contractor’s proposal. Contractor is required to
provide a traffic control rate sheet with their RFP response.
Answer: See Rate sheet for traffic control rates. We believe that using certified
third party specialty contractors provides the most cost effective and safest
solution to lane closures. Sage does its own traffic control designs since the
work zone is under our control and responsibility.

materials (ie fuels and raw materials), Sage has tried to reduce its carbon
footprint in various manners.
First, we have a recycling program for paper, oil, scrap metal, and used
cable. We are able to recycle between 50% to 95% of the above materials
at a small cost to the company. The more material we recycle, the less goes
into landfills.
Second, we operate multiple yards and offices so that the expense of
commuting to job sites is decreased. We currently have 4 offices and yards
in Colorado and strive to remain as close to the clients’ outside plant as
possible.
Third, we have 4 full time mechanics to service our equipment. We believe
that equipment that is kept in tune will reduce hazardous spills and remain
more fuel efficient.
Fourth, we constantly replace older, less efficient equipment with newer less
polluting models. This not only includes trucks, but also the heavy
equipment like directional bore rigs.
Fifth, Sage will be implementing Cab Cam which monitors drivers speed,
location and driving habits. We believe that keeping speeds down is not
only is a fuel saver, but also good for the general public.
Finally, Sage has been able to work with our clients to coordinate workloads
by area so to reduce the number of trips and save fuel and manhours
associated with a work order.
d. Include 1-2 paragraph’s regarding your firm’s experience in projects/contracts
similar to the scope of work as requested in this RFP.
Answer: Sage is the current contractor for underground and directional bore
services under the P113 LP Electrical Services Underground Program. The
City has renewed that contract for the maximum extension periods which has
enabled Sage to become very familiar with the intricacies of the work orders
as well as the overall project. Sage also held the P762 L&P Utility Electric
Services Underground Program that started in August 2000 and was extended
for several years.
Sage’s primary focus is to be the turnkey provider of outside plant
construction for utility owners. Besides the City, Sage covers 65% of
Comcast’s Colorado infrastructure. We have been providing dry utility
construction for network owners for over 20 years for clients ranging from US
West, AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast’s predecessors. Sage is the largest
employer for underground construction in Colorado.
e. Describe in detail your firms approach to the project.
RFP 7546 Directional Boring & Trenching Page 6 of 66
Answer: The key approach is to be local and use the management and crews
that have worked not only in immediate area, but also those that have actually
worked for the City. Sage has a local presence with an office in Fort Collins,
from which this Project will be staffed. We believe that employing local
residents and having an office close to our customer enables us to provide
quick and efficient service that is sensitive to the needs of our client and their
customers.
The management team has been with Sage an average of 10 years and have
worked in the Front Range most of their careers. Sage and its predecessors
have managed projects for many different operators including cable, telephone,
cellular, water, power, and education districts. The experience of working in
Colorado for so many years with the same management team gives Sage
unique knowledge of Colorado’s utility infrastructure which translates to safe
and efficient project management.

RFP 7546 Directional Boring & Trenching Page 7 of 66
David Park, Matt Stepisnik, and Frank Barrientes will be the Field Foremen and will
be dedicated fulltime to the project and are available for the duration of the
contract.
Operators –The Operators will be the heavy equipment operators (ie directional
bore machines, backhoes, large trenchers). The Foreman is also responsible for
jobsite safety and analysis. Various Foremen will be used including Luis Placencia
(directional bore), and Carlos Lazcano (directional bore). The exact number and
name of Foremen will be dependent on the amount and type of workload assigned
by the City. Foremen will be dedicated fulltime to the project. Individual
assignments will occur after we had a chance to meet with the City on methods of
construction (aerial, bore, trenching, mini-excavation).
Project Coordinator, –The Project Coordinator is responsible for billing and

the Project Coordinator and will support both Domingo and Mike McFadden.
d. Resumes or work history of individuals proposed to fill these key positions
Answer: Resumes are attached.
e. Define who will negotiate (a) the Services Agreement (b) individual work
orders
Answer: Mike McFadden will negotiate the Services Agreement, and
Domingo Torres will negotiate work orders.
f. Indicate the availability of all individuals proposed on this project
Please indicate your firms approach to staffing the entire project. Indicate
pertinent work experience and availability of assigned personnel. Include
references from owners for the last 3 projects for each assigned person and
similar references for work on Electric Services Undergrounding Programs (if not
among last three projects). Indicate if key staff will be assigned to manage the
work for the duration of the contract.
Answer: It is the intent of Sage to staff the entire project with in-house crews.
Sage consists of 148 people, all here in Colorado, so resources are certainly
available for this project. We believe in using our own employees since we can
better control the final product and adhere to all safety and hiring policies. When
we were awarded the 2008 contract, we opened an office in Fort Collins to be more
available to the City’s managers and closer to the actual projects. Resumes for the
key individuals are attached. Staff availability is detailed above.

7. Damages Caused by Contractor.
Describe any major and/or minor damages caused by Contractor to others
property during the last five (5) years. Indicate how the damages were handled,
who handled them and who paid for them.
Answer: Sage performs a vast range of construction services, including direct bury
of residential cable. The vast majority of our damages come from unlocated
residential sprinkler lines. Sage has a dedicated employee to call in all locate
requests and crews do not begin construction until the locates are completed.
Even with this process, damages occur since locators have either mis-located the
utility or did not mark a utility (usually the resident lateral sewer lines).
Sage has worked with the City to develop a City specific Door Hanger to help notify
residents of pending construction activities and what actions are needed by the
homeowners. This form enables Sage to perform sewer locates on private
property and help indemnify the City of any damages when residents don’t
respond.
Roger Hoaglund handles all damages. All damages are paid by Sage unless
noted.
2008- Sage hit located Qwest copper phones lines four times, highest was $2,335.
Electric lines were hit twice. highest was $2,204. Gas was struck twice, highest bill
was $1,629. Water lines were damaged once: City of Fort Collins for $1,132.
Sewer lines are damaged three times (all unlocated by utility owner). Repair bills
were $5,241, $5,866 and $4,991 (last paid by insurance).
2009- Located Electric lines were damaged twice by directional bore: $10,395
(Sage paid $5,000 and insurance paid balance, and $3,922 paid by Sage). Gas
lines were hit in three instances, largest bill was $2,692. Two sewer lines were hit.
The largest was $3,480 and cost was split with the City and Sage.
2010- Gas lines were hit three times. Largest bill was for $7,233 and paid by
insurance. Damage was due to poor bore head calibration. City power was hit
due to lack of accurate pothole use ($1,012). Xcel electric was hit during
emergency repair ($3,724). Unlocated sewers was hit twice, with largest repair bill
of $5,471. Private fiber line was located but drill hit PRPA line. Invoice for $9,801
was paid by Sage.
RFP 7546 Directional Boring & Trenching Page 12 of 66
2011- Qwest lines were hit once with a repair bill of $220. Unlocated server line
(City of Fort Lupton) was hit with drill and was repaired for $9,151 (paid by Sage).
Gas lines were struck twice, with largest bill of $8,226. Xcel and Sage agreed to
split invoice since both companies had fault (ticket description was vague, Locator
did not locate line). Sage drill operator failed to use potholes to verify depth on
other gas damage.
2012- Qwest was hit twice, with largest bill of $950. Electric lines were hit three
times, with largest of $1,025. Gas was hit three times, with largest bill for $718.
Private fiber was damaged by mini-ex for a repair of $3,801. Sage’s subcontractor
hit City water and paid for repair bill of $7,920. Sage also hit the City waterline and
repaired for $1,089 (Sage did not expect elbow in lateral line). The City and Sage
split the cost to repair unlocated sewer lateral for $10,756. After this damage,
Sage and the City developed new door hanger to reduce City’s liability.
2013- Qwest located line was hit once for a repair of $787. Unlocated sewer
lateral was damaged and repaired for $1,718.
On any damage, the first goal is to protect customers and their property, especially
on gas line ruptures. The second goal is to repair the utility and get the service
back online. The third goal is to investigate, determine how to avoid future
accidents and determine who is at fault. There have been several near misses in
the last 2 years that went unrecorded, so Sage has created missed locate forms to
track locate issues with poor locate companies.

Answer: No change to template form. For purposes of brevity, the pages were not
included in Proposal.
However, to help clarify an item, we would recommend that on page 57 of 86 in
paragraph 5.4.10 you strike the words “…covering CONTRACTOR’s indemnity
obligations under paragraph 6.12.” The contractual liability coverage is subject to all
the terms and conditions of the policy. The policy covers bodily injury, personal
injury, and property damage and would respond to indemnification requests for
those damages. However, the policy does not cover things like fine, penalties, liens,
breach of contract, patent infringement, violation of laws and permits etc. which are
included in the indemnification provision of a contract.

5. Safety record.
Contractors are asked to provide their “OSHA Lost Time Rate” and “OSHA
Recordable Incident Rate”, accompanied by the Contractors OSHA 300 log for
