RFQ #12‐06‐01, Construction Management Services for Gateway Park Page 2| 4 As District Engineer for ITDD, and BDD, our responsibilities include the review of all construction plans and specifications for conformance with the District criteria, as well as representation at District Board meetings to address technical and engineering issues. In addition, CGA has been successful in obtaining several millions of dollars in grants to accomplish the District’s goals and objectives. Furthermore, CGA has also developed storm water master plans for several municipalities including the Cities of Dania Beach, Lauderhill, West Park, Weston and the Town of Surfside. Within these cities, we have provided a number of storm water‐ related activities such as storm water modeling, drainage calculations, pump station design and/or pump station rehabilitation, NPDES MS4 compliance, culvert design, canal extensions and other related hydraulic structures. Our experienced drainage engineers keep abreast of the latest EPA, FDEP and SFWMD regulations with respect to drainage issues. They regularly summarize new regulations, their impact on clients and recommend actions to comply with the new regulation(s). ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING CGA’s Electrical Department has broad capabilities for the infrastructure and the end use development for municipal, commercial, and industrial projects. The types of services provided include:  Power Distribution  Communication System Distribution  Interior Lighting  Telephone  Area Lighting  Cable TV  Street Lighting  SCADA  Sports Lighting  Energy Conservation SURVEYING The Surveying and Mapping Division of CGA utilizes the latest in cutting edge technology when preparing surveys including GPS equipment, automated data collection, Laser Scanners, Underground utility detection technologies and a Vacuum/Slurry subsurface excavation system called the VaXcavator that exposes existing underground utilities. Operated by one of the field survey crews, it allows us to obtain sub‐surface horizontal and vertical locations required for design, while realizing cost and timesavings for our clients. Additionally, our state‐of‐the‐art Hypack software with Odom sounder allows us to offer hydrographic surveying services. By integrating with our Trimble GPS units, the equipment creates a three‐ dimensional model of the water body being surveyed and significant savings for our clients. Recognizing the value to our clients, CGA was among the first firms in Florida to acquire the 3D Laser ScanStation. Our Surveying and Mapping staff can now scan virtually anything in half the time of conventional methods, with a level of detail not available before. The ScanStation can take a virtual, detailed snapshot of a site including ceilings, undersides of bridges, elevated pipe racks, tall facades, columns and towers. Areas that were previously difficult to access. It collects millions of data points of all items in a 360° horizontal and 270° vertical field of view, allowing a full field of view. This eliminates an additional visit to capture data not covered in the original scope of work or the question as to where a shot was taken of an object. The ScanStation captures all the items at once in a permanent record that can be filed, including hundreds of high quality photos, and graphics or animations, from 3D to virtual walk‐through of sites. It is ideal for litigations, client presentations or commission meetings. For added convenience, the survey data can be exported to whatever format our clients need, whether CADD or other software.
