STAFFING This proposal assumes the City of Newport Beach requires full-time inspection in addition to Construction Management due to the project's extensive site, the potential for concurrent tasks, and its location within and adjacent to the sensitive habitats of Back Bay.

Accordingly, we are prepared to discuss project cost savings in staffing allocation and reimbursable items proportionally at the appropriate time to ensure the budget aligns with the City of Newport Beach's goals and objectives for this project. The staff augmentation services to be provided under this scope shall include work related to the construction phases of the above -mentioned project as outlined by the following tasks. In general, the work consists of services as defined by the City's outline as provided in the RFP. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER -Representative (CONSTRUCTION MANAGER) acknowledges that the City may retain other consultants, engineering and otherwise, and that coordination between said consultants and CONSTRUCTION MANAGER may be necessary from time to time to ensure services herein performed are effective.
