Exhibit A (Scope of Work) <br />Our Proposal <br />Engineered Sports was founded in 2007 specializing in Sports & Tactical Performance <br />Rehabilitation. Over the past 15 years, we have been a proven leader in Snohomish <br />County, forming strategic partnerships with numerous sports teams, fire departments <br />and law enforcement agencies to provide comprehensive musculoskeletal testing and <br />rehabilitation programs to ensure sport & tactical-readiness, while decreasing the risk <br />for injury. <br /> <br />Over the years, while working with Police Officers & Firefighters throughout Snohomish <br />County, we have come to learn that in order to find solutions for improving Officer- <br />Fitness & Readiness there must be a comprehensive system in place that can <br />objectively measure the quality of human movement. If we cannot measure it, we <br />cannot fix it, or manage it. In a sense, we are trying to redefine “Police Officer Fitness” <br />by looking beyond pure strength and conditioning, and focusing on quality of movement, <br />mobility, stability, and symmetry throughout the human body. With a comprehensive <br />system in place, we propose there will be a reduction in injuries on and off duty, along <br />with a reduction in the amount of time-loss from work. Ultimately, we should see a <br />reduction in medical costs to the Police Department and/or municipalities. We also <br />propose that by having a comprehensive testing system in place, such as the TFMA, <br />the individual Police Officer should experience greater career longevity and <br />sustainability. <br /> <br /> Rationale <br /> The rationale behind the Tactical Functional Movement Assessment is <br />to have an efficient, seamlessly integrated, Department-supported <br />evaluation tool that can cross multiple age groups for identifying problem <br />areas in the body that can lead to future injury. By implementing a <br />comprehensive system that provides a more thorough evaluation of <br />muscles, joints, flexibility, symmetry, and movement quality, we are able to <br />intervene early and often to support the Officers’ individual needs. Thus, <br />we can reduce the risk of injury, while improving overall tactical- <br />performance and better ensure readiness at a moment's notice. <br /> <br />Execution Strategy <br />Our execution strategy to help ensure Officer-Tactical-Readiness (OTR) is called <br />“LASCR” (pron. “Laser”). <br /> <br />THE “LASCR” APPROACH <br /> LOCATE→ASSESS →SUPPORT→CORRECT→REPEAT <br />EXPECTED RESULTS <br />Expected results include: Improved human performance; decreased risk for injury; and <br />lower medical (L&I) costs to the Police Department and Municipality.
