City of Everett | RFP No. 2023-057 <br />November 2, 2023 <br />IMS Infrastructure Management Services, LP 26 <br />F. How (or why) does your approach provide the best value? <br /> <br />Pricing Methodology and Cost Competitiveness <br />IMS offers competitive pricing commensurate with the pavement and asset management <br />industry. In addition, we are able to offer several cost saving benefits to our clients through the <br />strength of the IMS and ICC relationship. Our estimating guidelines include reviewing historical <br />data and current industry trends. We update our estimating guidelines to reflect the most <br />competitive labor, equipment, materials, and overhead expenses that we can offer to our <br />clients. The accuracy of our initial estimate or firm fixed fee price quote is essential to <br />identifying any true variances during final contract negotiations, and for identifying <br />opportunities to reduce pricing to better align with specific project goals or to re-allocate cost- <br />savings to other areas of need. <br /> <br />The pricing we have provided the City is in-line with our published rates for the recent North <br />Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) Pavement Analysis and Related Services <br />contract. These rates are public and can be viewed here: https://www.txshare.org/available- <br />contracts/pavement-analysis-services/infrastructure-management-services-inc. <br /> <br />G.

We continuously strive to exceed our clients' expectations, delivering results <br />that have a lasting impact on the communities we serve. By placing immense value on the <br />satisfaction of our clients, we uphold our mission of empowering communities and fostering a <br />future where well-maintained infrastructure is the backbone of thriving and prosperous <br />societies. <br /> <br />H.
