10.Quality Assurance/Quality Control
2. Effective Project Management
Effective project management involves the management of resources, knowledge, and people. We will ensure the
Project Team's sound organization, in-depth understanding of the issues and goals,and development/execution of the
project plan. Our staffing size allows us to handle multiple tasks simultaneously.
3. Adherence to the Procedures
LLG will adhere to the standards, policies, business methods, and project requirements. This includes understanding
Federal,State,and Local regulations and best practices within our discipline.
4. Regular and Effective Client Communication
Daniel A. Kloos,as the Project Manager,would facilitate communication between the City, responsible parties,and the
Project Team. LLG frequently uses teleconferencing and emails to expedite project management. LLG will provide
written updates on the project's progress since communication is paramount.
5. Availability and Responsiveness to Client
Many of our projects demand that we be responsive and work effectively with other team
members. All phone calls and emails are returned within 24 hours.
6. Anticipation of Issues and Problem Solving i—y.
We understand that smooth progression is critical to achieving a
successful outcome. We embrace a philosophy of anticipating
issues or conflicts before they arise. In some instances, issues 4 '
cannot be avoided but they will be addressed positively and N ( r` . .,

8. Well-Documented Reports/Plans
LLG has prepared several thousand technical reports and design plans. We specialize in putting the study's technical
elements of the report into a format that our clients and the public can easily understand.
9. Schedule and Budget Adherence
We recognize the importance of the project adhering to a set schedule and budget. We will prepare a schedule and a
cost breakdown of the tasks at the beginning of the project for approval. The schedule will be met,and the budget will
not be exceeded.
10.Quality Assurance/Quality Control
LLG has a standard practice of quality control that involves both Senior and Principal-level staff members. Every
deliverable to the City will be reviewed before leaving our office as part of our Standardized Quality Control Program.
