ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
13 Scope. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided elsewhere in the Contract, the alternative
dispute resolution ("ADR") process provided herein shall be the exclusive means for resolution of
claims or disputes arising under or related to the Contract, the interpretation thereof or the performance
or breach by any party thereto, including but not limited to original claims or disputes asserted as cross
claims, counterclaims, third party claims or claims for indemnity or subrogation, in any threatened or
ongoing litigation or arbitration with third parties, if such disputes involve parties to contracts
containing this ADR provision. No changes can be made to this process without the mutual assent of
the County and the claimant. The parties have structured this procedure with the goal of providing for
the prompt, efficient and final resolution of all disputes falling within the purview of this ADR
process.
1.2 Meeting of Principals. When a claim is made or a dispute (hereafter "dispute") as described in
Paragraph 1.1 arises, senior representatives of the County and the claimant will meet personally within
ten (10) business days to discuss the dispute and attempt to resolve it. If, after good faith efforts,
resolution is not achieved, the dispute will proceed to mediation.
1.3 Qualifications of Mediator and Arbitrators. Any person selected as mediator or arbitrator, either as
single arbitrator as a member or Chair of the arbitration panel, shall be a member of the State Bar of
Arizona and have experience in construction law.
1.4 Mediation. If the parties have been unable to resolve the dispute after a meeting of principals, the
parties may enter into mediation. The parties shall jointly select a mediator. The parties may mutually
agree to waive mediation and proceed directly to arbitration. If the mediation process is requested by
either party, the mediation period shall be informal and shall not exceed sixty (60) calendar days from
the selection of the mediator. During the mediation process either party may terminate mediation on
written notice to the other party and the mediator.
1.5 Binding Arbitration Procedure. The following binding arbitration procedure shall serve as the
exclusive method to resolve a dispute if mediation is unsuccessful, if mediation has been waived by
the parties, or if a party requests arbitration during the mediation process. Except as provided in
Section 1.7.5 and 1.7.9, the decision of the arbitrator or arbitrator panel is final and binding on the
parties and not subject to further judicial review.
1.5.1 A party requesting binding arbitration shall notify the other party of their demand for
arbitration in writing within seven (7) calendar days of (1) the failure of mediation; (2) waiver
of mediation; or (3) of the party's demand to terminate mediation.
1.5.2 If the Engineer requests arbitration it shall post a cash bond with the arbitrator in an amount
agreed upon by the parties or, in the event of no agreement, the arbitrator shall establish the
amount of the cash bond to defray the cost of the arbitration and the proceeds from the bond
shall be allocated in accordance with paragraph 1.7.7. The bond must be in the full amount
agreed upon or as established by the Arbitrator to pay the potential cost of the full arbitration
proceeding. The bond must be posted with and received by the arbitrator within five (5)
calendar days after the demand for arbitration.
1.5.3 Disputes involving less than $200,000 shall be heard by one single arbitrator chosen by
agreement of the parties. If the parties cannot agree on the single arbitrator, then the parties
shall each submit two names to a Judge designated by Maricopa County who shall select the
single arbitrator.
TERM ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT SERIAL NO. 180009-ROQ
Term Structural Engineering Services Page 31
1.5.4 For disputes in excess of $200,000, the arbitration panel shall consist of three arbitrators: the
County's appointed arbitrator, the Engineer appointed arbitrator and a third arbitrator who
shall be selected by the parties' arbitrators and serve as the Chair of the arbitration panel.
1.5.5 The arbitration is to be convened and administered under the Revised Uniform Arbitration Act
("RUAA") (A.R.S. § 12-3001 et seq.) and the American Arbitration Association Construction
Rules shall serve as a guideline for proceedings, thus as a supplement to the RUAA.
1.6 Expedited Hearing. Any party can request the single arbitrator or the Chair of the arbitration panel to
set an expedited hearing. If the single arbitrator or the Chair of the arbitration panel determines that the
circumstances justify it, the single arbitrator or the Chair of the arbitration panel will arrange for
scheduling of the arbitration at the earliest possible date. In any event, the hearing of any dispute not
expedited will commence as soon as practical but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after
notification of request for arbitration having been received. This deadline can be extended only with
the consent of all the parties to the dispute, or by decision of the single arbitrator or the Chair of the
arbitration panel upon a showing of good cause.
1,7 Procedure. The single arbitrator or the arbitration panel will conduct the hearing in such a manner that
will resolve disputes in a prompt, cost efficient manner giving regard to the rights of all parties. Each
party shall supply to the single arbitrator or arbitration panel a written pre-hearing statement which
shall contain a brief statement of the nature of the claim or defense, a list of witnesses and exhibits, a
brief description of the subject matter of the testimony of each witness who will be called to testify,
and an estimate as to the length of time that will be required for the arbitration hearing. The single
arbitrator or the Chair of the arbitration panel shall determine the nature and scope of discovery, if any,
and the manner of presentation of relevant evidence consistent with deadlines provided herein, and the
parties' objective that disputes be resolved in a prompt and efficient manner. No discovery may be
had of any materials or information for which a privilege is recognized by Arizona law. The single
arbitrator or the Chair upon proper application shall issue such orders as may be necessary and
permissible under law to protect confidential, proprietary or sensitive materials or information from
public disclosure or other misuse. Any party may make application to the Maricopa County Superior
Court to have a protective order entered as may be appropriate to confirm or enforce such orders of the
Chair.
1.7.1 Hearing Days. In order to effectuate parties' goals, the hearing once commenced, will proceed
from working day to working day until concluded, absent a showing of good cause.
1.7.2 Award. The single arbitrator shall within ten (10) calendar days of the conclusion of a hearing
issue an award. The arbitration panel shall, within ten (10) calendar days from the conclusion
of any hearing, by majority vote, issue its award. The award shall include an allocation of fees
and costs pursuant to 1.7.7 herein. The award is to be in accordance with the Contract and the
law of the State of Arizona.
1.7.3 Scope of Award. Regardless of the provisions of the RUAA, the arbitration panel shall be
without authority to award punitive damages, and any such punitive damage award shall be
void. If an award is made against any party in excess of one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000), exclusive of interest, arbitration fees, costs and attorneys' fees, it shall be
supported by written findings of fact, conclusions of law and a statement as to how damages
were calculated.
1.7.4 Jurisdiction. The arbitration panel shall not be bound for jurisdictional purposes by the
amount asserted in any party's claim, but shall conduct a preliminary hearing into the question
of jurisdiction over the claim as regards its amount upon application of any party at the earliest
convenient time, but not later than the commencement of the arbitration hearing. If the dispute
TERM ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT SERIAL NO. 180009-ROQ
Term Structural Engineering Services Page 32
is determined to involve less than $200,000, the arbitration shall continue before the Neutral
Arbitrator as a single arbitrator, with the party appointed arbitrators being excused.
1.7.5 Entry of Judgment. As provided in the RUAA, any party can make application to the
Maricopa County Superior Court for confirmation of an award, and for entry of judgment on
it.
1.7.6 Severance and Joinder. To reduce the possibility of inconsistent adjudications, the Mediator
or the single arbitrator or arbitration panel, may: (i) at the request of any party, join and/or
sever parties, and/or claims arising under other contracts containing this ADR provision, and
(ii) the Mediator, on his own authority, or the single arbitrator or arbitration panel may, on its
own authority, join or sever parties and/or claims subject to this ADR process as deemed
necessary for a just resolution of the dispute, consistent with the parties' goal of the prompt
and efficient resolution of disputes, provided; however, that the A/E, OWNER and Project
Professionals shall not be joined as a party to any claim made by a Engineer. Nothing herein
shall create the right by any party to assert claims against another party not arising under or
related to the Contract or not recognized under the substantive law as applicable to the dispute.
Neither the Mediator nor the single arbitrator or arbitration panel is authorized to join to the
proceeding parties not in privity with the County. The Engineer cannot be joined to any
pending arbitration proceeding, without Engineer express written consent and unless Engineer
is given the opportunity to participate in the selection of the single arbitrator or non-County
appointed arbitrator.
1.7.7 Fees and Costs. Each party shall bear its own fees and costs in connection with any informal
hearing before the mediation. All fees and costs associated with any arbitration before the
single panel or arbitration panel, including without limitation the arbitrator fees, and the
prevailing party's reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and costs, will be paid by the
non-prevailing party, except as provided for herein. In the event that Engineer is the non-
prevailing party, all fees and costs as noted above shall first be paid out of the bond posted
with the arbitrator. In no event shall the Engineer obligation to pay fees and costs be limited
to the amount of the bond posted herein. In no event shall any arbitrator's hourly fees be
awarded in an amount in excess of $250 per hour and (i) costs shall not include any travel
expenses in excess of mileage at the rate paid by Maricopa County, not to exceed a one way
trip of 150 miles, and (ii) all travel expenses, including meals, shall be reimbursed pursuant to
the travel policy of Maricopa County in effect at the time of the hearing. The determination of
prevailing and non-prevailing parties, and the appropriate allocation of fees and costs, will be
included in the award by the single arbitrator or arbitration panel.
1.7.8 Confidentiality. Any proceeding initiated under this ADR provision shall be deemed
confidential to the maximum extent allowed by Arizona law and, except for disclosures to a
party's attorneys or accountants, no party shall make any disclosure related to the disputed
matter or to the outcome of any proceeding except to the extent required by law, or to seek
interim equitable relief, or to enforce an agreement reached by the parties or an award made
hereunder. This provision does not affect the County's right to inform the County Supervisors
of the dispute.
1.7.9 Equitable Litigation. Notwithstanding any other provision of ADR to the contrary, any party
can petition the Maricopa County Superior Court for interim equitable relief as may become
necessary to preserve the status quo and prevent immediate and irreparable harm to a party or
to the Project pending resolution of a dispute pursuant to ADR provided herein. No court may
order any permanent injunctive relief except as may be necessary to enforce an order entered
by the arbitration panel. The fees and costs incurred in connection with any such equitable
proceeding shall be determined and assessed in ADR.
TERM ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT SERIAL NO. 180009-ROQ
Term Structural Engineering Services Page 33
1.7.10 Change Order. Any award in favor of the Engineer against the County or in favor of the
County against the Engineer shall be reduced to a Change Order and executed by the parties in
accordance with the award and the provisions of the Contract or a settlement agreement as
appropriate.
1.7.11 Merger and Bar. Any claim asserted pursuant to this ADR process shall be deemed to include
all claims, demands, and requests for compensation for costs and losses or other relief,
including the extension of the Contract performance period which reasonably should or could
have been brought against any party that was or could have been brought into this ADR
process, with respect to the subject claim. The arbitration panel shall apply legal principles
commonly known as merger and bar to deny any claim or claims against any party regarding
which claim or claims recovery has been sought or should have been sought in a previously
adjudicated claim for an alleged cost, loss, breach, error, or omission.
1.8 Inclusion in Other Contracts. The Engineer shall cooperate with the County in efforts to include this
ADR provision in all other Project contracts.

Additional Expertise
Renovation projects, in general, require more interaction between the structural engineer and owner
due to the variety of strengthening options and the levels of "risk" associated with each solution. In
addition, constraints imposed by existing conditions may make solutions that would be appropriate for
new construction impractical for existing buildings. Combining all of these variables, ASE-KPFF's
approach to analyzing existing building structures is to develop a clear understanding of the goals and
expectations of the owner.
ASE-KPFF has developed many innovative designs that provide a "best" solution for all parties involved.
One such innovative solution is the use of Carbon Fiber material in the strengthening and
rehabilitation of building structures.
Over the last almost 20 years, we have successfully completed the design and construction management
of carbon fiber installation on 120 building structures and pipe sections up to 144 inches in diameter
throughout the U.S. as well as internationally.
As a result, carbon fiber composite technology has breathed new life into failing structures through
expeditious, cost effective design and construction, simply because of its unique mechanical properties
and versatility. Carbon fiber composite retrofits are considered a long-term solution that restores and
enhances structural integrity in major engineering projects.
THANK YOU
Thank you for this opportunity to present our qualifications and we look forward to discussing how we
can help you meet your engineering needs.

Arizona State Prison Rynning Unit, Building 4 Repair, Florence, AZ
Carbon fiber strengthening for an above grade concrete slab in the
Rynning Unit of the Arizona State Prison in Florence, Arizona. An
evaporative cooling system leaked causing severe damage to the
concrete slab by deteriorating the concrete and corroding the
reinforcing steel. The deteriorated concrete was removed and
patched. We installed carbon fiber composite reinforcing to restore
strength to the concrete slab and provide durability for continued
performance.
Sweetwater Park, Street Light Pole Repair, Phoenix, AZ
Design for the carbon fiber repair of the 16" diameter steel light pole
for the City of Phoenix. The 'A" steel was corroded at the base.
Composite Carbon Fiber was designed to be applied externally to the
base of the light pole and the connection to the base plate. Carbon
Fiber exhibits several properties which creates the opportunity for
their use as structural reinforcing elements. Such properties as high
strength, chemical corrosion resistance, and durability make them
ideal for the rehabilitation.
Paradise Valley High School, Auditorium Wall Repair, Phoenix, AZ
Designed the repairs and strengthening of the 60 foot high
masonry/concrete perimeter wall of this high school auditorium. The
wall was cracked in many locations at the base of the structure. ASE-
KPFF managed the turnkey process which included engineering design
of the repairs using carbon fiber, material selection, mobilization, and
the inspection of the installation of carbon fiber material.
ADOT Fog Room, Phoenix, AZ
Designed the repair and provided the construction management of
the installation of Carbon Fiber on double tees in a concrete testing
Fog Room. The double tees were showing serious signs of
deterioration from constant saturation and 100% humidity levels. The
Carbon Fiber not only rehabilitated the structural integrity of the
damaged concrete tees, but also provided a protective coating to the
concrete tees from the humidity and saturation exposure.
ADOT Cooling Tower Repair, Phoenix, AZ
Structural engineering analysis and design incorporating Carbon Fiber
composite materials to repair deteriorated beams and slabs over the
sump pits as well as the beams and columns at the air inlet. The
Composite wraps were installed on all of the structural elements and
connections. The Carbon Fiber strengthened the weakened structure
and prevented it from future deterioration. This repair method
prevented the need to demolish and replace the existing cooling
tower.
