Re: Proposal for Professional Services—E17026 Technical Support for Water Line InfoMaster
Modeling
Dear Jeff,
Per your request,Lockwood,Andrews&Newnam, Inc.has prepared a general scope and fee schedule for
Technical Support for Water Line InfoMaster Modeling. The overall goal of the project is to setup,
configure and develop an InfoMaster model in order to systematically prioritize waterline replacements
and rehabilitations within the City.
In general,the tasks for this project include the following:
• Project Coordination: Meetings with City staff to review data and prioritization weightings
• InfoMaster Setup and Configuration: Initial setup and ranking configurations of the InfoMaster
Database based on available InfoWater hydraulic models
• Waterline Prioritization and Reporting: water lines throughout the City will be ranked based on
InfoMaster output. The overall workflow and assumptions will be documented through an
engineering memorandum.
As you are aware, unforeseen issues with projects of this type frequently arise whether it relates to model
set-up, access to system data, software issues, or similar. The work would be executed with close
collaboration with City staff. Fee's for Basic Services include not-to-exceed amounts and are based on
past experience and available data to date.
Because of the potential unforeseen issues, LAN feels that this contract may require additional services
that could be executed in an amendment to this contract to support supplementary set-up and water line
prioritization with the City staff, in the event that this is needed.
Exhibit A is a more detailed description of the proposed Scope of Services.We propose to complete these
services for a total lump sum fee of $45,120.00. Exhibit B provides a man-hour estimate of the fees
associated with the engineering tasks.
We are prepared to begin this task immediately and look forward to supporting the City of Corpus Christi
on this important project. Please feel free to contact me at 361-792-7225 or by email at SMHarris@lan-
inc.com if you have any additional questions.

Attachment A
Scope of Services
Technical Support for Water Line InfoMaster Modeling
Situation:
The purpose of this effort is to support the City Utilities Department with developing a strategic method
to replace aged waterline infrastructure in Corpus Christi. Through a Geographic Information System
(GIS)and Innovyze InfoMaster,an approach will be developed to prioritize replacement projects for the
City's water distribution system. InfoMaster will provide a systematic process to extend the service life
of the system while enhancing monitoring capability and water quality. Additional benefits will include
increased distribution reliability with reduced service outages,and reduced operational costs.
Goal of Project:
The end result will be for the City of Corpus Christi Utilities Department to appropriately and graphically
prioritize water line replacements within the City. The deliverable of this effort will be a configured and
setup InfoMaster installation,along with a better trained City staff that will be capable of operating the
system.
Scope of Services:
The following scope details the procedures that Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam (LAN) will follow to
provide the required professional services. The scope of services include the preparation of
Memorandum in accordance with the City of Corpus Christi Design Standards and Guidance.
I. BASIC SERVICES
A. Project Communication&Coordination
General project coordination will be ongoing through the period of the contract and include items
such as participating in the meetings and conference calls with City Staff, preparing contract
correspondences,transmitting deliverables,and other project oversight activities.The fee for this
sub-task is based on four required meetings and includes one(1) kickoff meeting,two meetings
with City staff for ranking and InfoMaster criteria,and one(1)review summary meeting.
B. Data Collection&Review of Data
Collect and review hydraulic models and GIS from the City.
C. Innovyze InfoMaster Setup and Configuration
LAN will setup and configure the Innovyze InfoMaster software based on available City-provided
InfoWater hydraulic models. These services will include identifying the following InfoMaster
related objects; facilities, survey/inspection reports, service requests, analysis, work order &
projects, and appropriate add on notes and tools. Each object category will be populated as
Exhibit A
Page 3 of 6

available information allows. Category priorities and base information will be reviewed with City
staff.
It will be essential that this task be a collaborative effort with City staff and may include
modifications to existing City models,if necessary to setup and configure the Innovyze InfoMaster
software and may also include time needed to gain access to the City system via VPN(or similar).
Services under this sub-task will be performed in 4-5 hour sessions at agreed upon dates and times
with LAN and City staff, until the system is fully set-up, configured, and integrated into City GI5
systems.
D. Waterline Prioritization based on InfoMaster Output
LAN will collaborate with City staff and provide an initial waterline replacement/repair
prioritization list based on InfoMaster related output and will train City staff on how to conduct
future prioritization efforts.
Training under this sub-task will be performed in 4-5 hour sessions at agreed upon dates and times
with LAN and City staff, until a time that the City agrees that the output is sufficient enough to be
included in future Capital Improvement Program(CIP)repair/replacement projects.
E. Reporting
LAN will develop a letter memorandum documenting the process for the configuration of
InfoMaster and the workflow process associated with developing the waterline prioritization as
well as a summary of waterline prioritization. This effort includes one draft submission, changes
based upon City comments,and a final submittal.
II. ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Set-up/Configuration&Water Line Prioritization Support
NOTE:Unforeseen technical issues with projects of this type frequently arise whether it relates to
model set-up, access to system data, software issues, or similar; therefore LAN will be readily
available to provide additional support if necessary.
In the event that fees associated with the Basic Services above are not sufficient enough to meet
the goals of the City to appropriately and graphically prioritize water line repairs and
replacements, LAN will be available to provide additional services (via contract amendment) to
support the City until these goals are met, or to when the City deems it necessary to close this
project.
This support could also be used to evaluate the system after the completion of the project, to
conclude that the goals have been met or to provide a report to City management.
Exhibit A

Ill. ASSUMPTIONS
The City shall provide LAN available engineering studies,surveys,and reports concurrently when
issuing the Notice to Proceed.The documents to be provided to LAN include but not limited to:
1. Access to the complete InfoWater hydraulic model;
2. City Wide GIS Data;
3. Maximo Work Order Database;
4. Access to City's InfoMaster software via VPN connection or staff augmentation within City
Offices.
As previously mentioned, unforeseen issues with projects of this type frequently arise whether it
relates to model set-up,access to system data,software issues,or similar. Even though the work
would be executed with close collaboration with City staff, LAN feels that this contract may
require additional services or an amendment to our contract to provide additional support for
waterline prioritization. This proposal assumes only 24 hours of support for Water Line
Prioritization(see fee below).
IV. FEE SCHEDULE
LAN is pleased to provide the BASIC SERVICES defined above,for a lump sum fee not-to-exceed
$45,120.00,per the table below:
Project Communication&Coordination $3,900.00
Data Collection &Review of Data $9,000.00
