e. Failure of the Contractor to make payment to Subcontractors or Suppliers within seven (7)
days after receipt of each progress payment.
f.

completed at which time the retainage shall be reduced to 5%; provided that: (a) the
Contractor is making satisfactory progress on the Contract; and (b) in the City's sole
judgment, there is no specific cause or claim requiring a greater amount than 5% to be
retained. Thereafter, the City shall pay the Contractor 95% of the value of the Work, unless
and until it determines satisfactory progress is not being made, at which time the 10%

immediately upon demand refund to the City all monies that the latter may be compelled to

ARTICLE 10
SUBSTANTIAL AND FINAL COMPLETION
1.
"Substantial Completion" means that stage in the progression of the Construction Work, as approved
by City in writing, when the Project is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract that City
can enjoy beneficial use or occupancy of the entire Project and can utilize it for all of its intended
purposes. A condition precedent to Substantial Completion is the receipt by City of all necessary
authorizations for the use of the Project required by any governmental or regulatory authority. City
reserves the right to use any part, phase or system of the Project when such part, phase or system is
substantially completed, but such partial use of the Project shall not result in the Project being
deemed substantially complete, and such partial use shall not be evidence of Substantial Completion.
2.
When Contractor believes that the Construction Work is substantially complete, Contractor shall
notify the City in writing and shall submit to City a list of items remaining to be completed or
corrected. The City, the City's designee, (or an independent consultant hired by City) will perform an
inspection. If the Construction Work is substantially complete, in the sole opinion of City, City will
prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial
Completion. The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall state the responsibilities of City and
Contractor for Project security, maintenance, damage to the Construction Work, and insurance, and
shall fix the date, not more than 30 days after the established date of Substantial Completion, within
which Contractor shall complete any items of incomplete or defective Construction Work. The
Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to Contractor for its written acceptance of
the responsibilities assigned to it in such certificate.
3.
Upon Substantial Completion of the Construction Work, and upon execution by both City and
Contractor of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, City shall pay Contractor, within thirty (30)
days, all sums due Contractor, including such amount of retainage as the City in its sole discretion
wishes to pay based upon the value of remaining performance, less the reasonable costs, as
determined by City in City's sole discretion, for completing all incomplete Construction Work and/or
any Design Services, correcting and bringing into strict conformance all defective and nonconforming
Construction Work, and handling all outstanding or threatened claims.
4.
"Final Completion" means the completion of all Work required by, and in strict compliance with, this
Contract, the Job Order, including Contractor's provision to City of all documents and deliverables
required to be provided by the Contract.
5.
When Contractor believes that all of the Construction Work is finally complete, and Contractor is
ready for a final inspection, Contractor shall so notify the City in writing. The City (or an independent
consultant hired by City) will then make final inspection of the Construction Work and, if the
Construction Work is complete in strict accordance with the Contract, and the Contract has been
fully performed, then City will issue a Certificate for Final Payment, providing for payment of the
remainder of the Contract Price, less any amount withheld pursuant to the Contract.
6.
City shall make final payment of all remaining sums due to Contractor within thirty (30) days after
Final Completion as reflected by City's Certificate for Final Payment, provided that all documents and
Contract #2019005-03 M.R. TANNER
JOC Contract- Street Maintenance
15
deliverables required to be delivered to City under this Contract have been delivered as required,
and provided that all other conditions precedent to payment have been satisfied.
7.
Prior to being entitled to receive final payment, and as a condition precedent thereto, Contractor
shall furnish City, in the form and manner required by the City, the following:
(a) an Affidavit of Final Payment and Release, in particular certifying that all
Subcontractors and Suppliers have been paid all sums lawfully due to them, and
releasing City from all claims that Contractor had or might have asserted during the
performance of this Contract;
(b) if required by City, separate releases of lien or lien waivers from each Subcontractor,
lower tier subcontractor, laborer, Supplier or other person or entity who has, or might
assert a claim against City or City's property;
(c) consent of surety to final payment;
(d) a complete set of the as-built drawings to include AutoCAD disks and the record set of
Contract Documents; and
(e) all product warranties, operating manuals, instruction manuals and other record
documents, drawings and things customarily required of a Contractor, or expressly
required herein, as a part of or prior to Project closeout.
8.
Acceptance by Contractor of final payment shall constitute a waiver and release of all claims against
City by Contractor except for those claims previously made in writing against City by Contractor,
pending at the time of final payment and specifically identified on Contractor's pay request for final
payment as unsettled at the time it submits its pay request.
ARTICLE 11
CITY'S DUTIES, OBLIGATIONS, AND RESPONSIBILITIES
In addition to payment, City shall undertake to perform the following:
1.
City shall provide Contractor with information regarding City's requirements for the Project including
any desired or required design or construction schedule.
2.
City shall review any documents submitted by Contractor requiring City's decision, and shall render
any required decisions pertaining thereto.
3.
In the event City knows of any material fault or defect in the Construction Work, nonconformance
with the Contract, or of any errors, omissions or inconsistencies in the Design Documents, then City
shall give prompt notice thereof in writing to Contractor.
4.
City shall provide Contractor access to the Site and to the Construction Work, and shall provide
Contractor with such information, existing and reasonably available, necessary to Contractor's
performance of the Contract as Contractor may request.
5.
City shall cooperate with Contractor in securing any necessary licenses, permits, approvals or other
necessary authorizations for the design, construction and certification of the Project.
Contract #2019005-03 M.R. TANNER

16
6.
City shall perform the duties set forth in this Article 11 in a reasonably expeditious fashion so as to
permit the orderly and timely progress of Contractor's Design Services and of the Construction Work.
7.
City's review, inspection, or approval of any Construction Work, Design Documents, Submittals, or
pay requests by Contractor shall be solely for the purpose of determining whether such Construction
Work and such documents are generally consistent with City's construction program and
requirements. No review, inspection, or approval by City of the Construction Work or documents
shall relieve Contractor of its responsibility for the performance of its obligations under the Contract
or the accuracy, adequacy, fitness, suitability, or coordination of its Design Services or the
Construction Work. Approval by any governmental or other regulatory agency or other governing
body of any Construction Work, Design Documents, or Contract Documents shall not relieve
Contractor of responsibility for the strict performance of its obligations under the Contract. Payment
by City pursuant to the Contract shall not constitute a waiver of any of City's rights under the Contract
or at law, and Contractor expressly accepts the risk that defects in its performance, if any, may not
be discovered until after payment, including final payment, is made by City.
9.
City's agreement not to exercise, or its delay or failure to exercise, any right under the Contract or to
require strict compliance with any obligation of Contractor under the Contract shall not be a waiver
of the right to exercise such right or to insist on such compliance at any other time or on any other
occasion.
10.
City shall furnish to Contractor, prior to the execution of each Job Order, any and all written and
tangible material knowingly in its possession concerning conditions below ground at the site of the
Project. Such written and tangible material is furnished to Contractor only in order to make complete
disclosure of such material and for no other purpose. By furnishing such material, City does not
represent, warrant, or guarantee its accuracy or completeness either in whole or in part, and shall
have no liability therefore. If Contractor requests in writing, City shall also furnish surveys, legal
limitations, and utility locations (if known), and a legal description of the Project site.
11.
City shall obtain all easements required for construction, and shall pay for necessary assessments
and charges required for use and occupancy of the Construction Work. Contractor shall render such
assistance as City may request in obtaining such easements, certificates of occupancy, and the like.
12.
In the event Contractor fails or refuses to perform the Construction Work in strict accordance with
the Contract, or is otherwise in breach of this Contract in any way, City may, at its option, instruct
Contractor to cease and desist from performing further Construction Work, or any part thereof. Upon
receipt of such instruction from City in writing, Contractor shall immediately cease and desist as
instructed by City and shall not proceed further until the cause for City's instructions has been
corrected, no longer exists, or City instructs that the Construction Work may resume.
13.
In the event City issues such instructions to stop Construction Work, and in the further event that
Contractor fails and refuses within seven (7) days of receipt of same to provide adequate assurance
to City that the cause of such instructions will be eliminated or corrected, then City shall have the
right to carry out the Construction Work with its own forces, or with the forces of other contractors,
and Contractor shall be fully responsible for the costs incurred in correcting any defective or deficient
Contract #2019005-03 M.R. TANNER

Construction Work. The rights set forth in Article 11, Paragraph 11 and this Article 11, Paragraph 12
are in addition to, and without prejudice to, any other rights or remedies City may have against
Contractor, including the rights to terminate or withhold payment as provided herein.
ARTICLE 12
JOB ORDER (PROJECT) DOCUMENTATION
1.
Contractor shall maintain and protect all records relating in any manner whatsoever to the Project
(the "Project Records") for no less than four (4) years after Final Completion of the Project, and for
any longer period of time as may be required by law or good management practice.
2.
All Project Records which are in the possession of Contractor or Contractors Subcontractors shall be
made available to City for inspection and copying upon City's request at any time. Additionally, such
records shall be made available upon request by City to any state, federal or other regulatory
authorities, and any such authority may review, inspect and copy such records. The Project Records
include, without limitation, all drawings, plans, specifications, Submittals, correspondence, logs,
minutes, memoranda, photographs, tape or videotape recordings, or other writings or things which
document the Project, its design, or its construction. Said records include those documents
reflecting the cost of design and construction to Contractor.
ARTICLE 13
PERSONNEL, SUBCONTRACTORS AND SUPPLIERS
1.
A "Subcontractor" means an entity which has a direct contract with Contractor to perform a portion
of the Construction Work or the Design Services. For purposes of the Contract, Subcontractors shall
also include those furnishing any equipment and materials for the Project.
2.
A "Supplier" means an entity providing only equipment or materials for the performance of the
Construction Work.
3.
Upon execution of this Contract, and at such later times as may be applicable, Contractor shall furnish
City, in writing, the names of persons or entities proposed by Contractor to act as Subcontractors on
the Project. Contractor shall provide such information regarding such proposed Subcontractors as
City deems necessary. City shall promptly reply to Contractor, in writing, stating any objections City
may have to such proposed Subcontractors. Contractor shall not enter into a subcontract with an
intended Subcontractor with reference to whom City objects. Any consent or failure to reject by City
shall in no way relieve Contractor of any of its duties or warranties under the Contract.
4.
All subcontracts and purchase orders with Subcontractors shall afford Contractor rights against the
Subcontractor which correspond to those rights afforded to City against Contractor under this
Contract, including those rights of Contract suspension, termination, and stop Construction Work
orders as set forth in this Contract. It is expressly agreed that no relationship of agency, employment,
contract, obligation or otherwise shall be created between City and any Subcontractor of Contractor,
and a provision to this effect shall be inserted into all agreements between Contractor and its
Subcontractors.
Contract #2019005-03 M.R. TANNER
JOC Contract- Street Maintenance

5.
Should Contractor subcontract all or any part of the Construction Work, such subcontracting of the
Construction Work shall not relieve Contractor from any liability or obligation under the Contract or
under any applicable policy, law or regulation, and Contractor shall be responsible for all and any
acts, defaults, omissions or negligence of its Subcontractors, Suppliers, and CONTRACTOR’S.
6.
In accordance with Article 7, Paragraph 4 above, Contractor shall employ and assign only qualified
and competent personnel to perform any service or task concerning the Project. Contractor shall
designate one such person as the Project Contractor. Absent written instruction from Contractor to
the contrary, the Project Contractor shall be deemed to be Contractor's authorized representative
and shall be authorized to receive and accept any and all communications from City. Key design and
supervisory personnel assigned by Contractor to each Job Order will be provided at the time the
contractor submits the RFP pricing package. The contractor shall conform to all requirements
established in each Job Order RFP issued by the City.
7.
If, at any time during the course of the Project, City reasonably determines that the performance of
any Subcontractor or any member of Contractor's staff construction working on the Project is
unsatisfactory, City's Representative may require Contractor to remove such Subcontractor or staff
member from the Project immediately and replace the staff member at no cost or penalty to City for
delays or inefficiencies the change may cause.
ARTICLE 14
CHANGES AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
1.
Changes in the Design Services (if required) or the Construction Work under this Contract, consisting

Construction Work, the Construction Price will thereafter include such Cost of the Construction Work
and Services attributable to such change to the extent allowed.
4.
In the event the parties are unable to agree on the terms of a Change Order or Supplemental
Agreement, then Contractor shall continue to diligently perform the Work, including any change
directed by City by Change Order or Supplemental Agreement, and shall keep thorough records of

compliance herewith shall be a condition precedent to any liability of City therefore.

time records, as and when City may request so that City may evaluate Contractor's claim.
4.
Contractor shall continue its performance under this Contract regardless of the existence of any

precedent to any liability of City for any claim, Contractor shall strictly comply with the requirements
of Paragraph 2 above and such notice shall be given by Contractor before proceeding to execute any
alleged additional or changed Construction Work. Failure of the condition precedent to occur shall
constitute a waiver by Contractor of any claim.

In connection with any claim by Contractor against City for compensation in excess of the
Construction Price, any liability of City shall be strictly limited to the Cost of the Construction Work
and Design Services if required as defined and allowed in this Contract and subsequent Job Orders
and shall in no event include, indirect, consequential, impact or other costs, expenses or damages of
Contractor or its Subcontractors. City shall not be liable to Contractor for claims of third parties,
including Subcontractors, for acts, omissions, events, or conditions for which City would not be liable
to Contractor under the terms of the Contract. As a condition precedent to City's liability to
Contractor for any loss or damage resulting from claims of third parties, including Subcontractors,
such third parties must have complied with all conditions contained in their agreements with
Contractor and such claims must have been submitted to City by Contractor in strict compliance with
all the requirements of this Article. City shall not be liable to Contractor for claims of third parties

City, or contrary to any provision of the Contract, said Construction Work shall, if required by City,
be uncovered for inspection and shall be properly replaced at Contractor's expense without change
in the Contract Time.
2.
If any of the Construction Work is covered, concealed or obscured in a manner not inconsistent with
Paragraph 1 above, it shall, if required by City, be uncovered for inspection. If such Construction

Contractor shall immediately proceed to correct Construction Work rejected by City as defective or
failing to conform to the Contract. Contractor shall pay all costs and expenses associated with
correcting such rejected Construction Work, including any additional testing and inspections made

such defective Construction Work. If the unpaid balance of the Construction Price, if any, is
insufficient to compensate City for the acceptance of defective or nonconforming Construction
Work, Contractor shall, upon written demand from City, pay City such additional compensation for
accepting defective or nonconforming Construction Work.

Contractor, without prejudice to any other right or remedy against Contractor or others, terminate
the performance of Contractor and take possession of the Project site and of all materials and
equipment at the site and may finish the Construction Work by whatever methods it may deem
expedient. In such cases, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the
Construction Work is finished.

Attn: Tammy Vogel
RE:
Request for Qualifications Job Order Contracting Street Maintenance: Category #1 Pave & Mill Projects
Dear Selection Committee:
With M.R. Tanner’s vast experience with street maintenance projects, we are confident in our ability to partner with
the City of Buckeye to achieve the goals identified for this JOC. This JOC project gives us the opportunity to bring
you our pavement preservation expertise, identifying and mitigating risks and exceeding the expectations of the City.
Some of the key areas we would like to highlight that are listed in detail in the proposal include:
Experienced Team Working Together on Similar Projects: Our team has been fortunate enough to have
completed all of their recent projects together and many of the proposed team members have worked together on
projects with M.R. Tanner for over 10 years. The advantage you get with an experienced team on multiple projects is a
fully integrated team that delivers superior personnel, capabilities, experience and the necessary resources to assist
in planning and delivering the pavement preservation projects. (See Page 24)
M.R. Tanner Specializes in Ongoing Pavement Preservation Projects: Self-performing 90% of the work,
our company is proud to have proven success with many municipalities on multiple projects. Some of our greatest
references come from local public agency clients who have experienced M.R. Tanner’s ability to handle a variety of
complex projects while meeting aggressive schedules. (See Pages 4-8)
Availability: Lastly, this entire team is available and ready to begin as the City of Buckeye’s JOC contractor. We
understand this commitment means having key personnel being dedicated to the varying and on-going needs of
the City. We also understand that we will be asked to work efficiently, in time for tight deadlines and end of fiscal
year constraints. Again, as demonstrated on the past projects, we are fully capable to react quickly and complete
the project in time for all of the City’s time constraints. Whether it’s rapid estimate turnarounds, paperwork and
documentation or mobilization to the project, M.R. Tanner is organized to respond immediately.
Thank you again for your consideration. We look forward to meeting with you to further discuss our qualifications.
Please feel free to contact me at (480) 633-8500 with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Alan Evans

#1: CITY OF CHANDLER
2018 ASPHALTIC CONCRETE MILL & INLAY
DESCRIPTION:
This renewable annual contract project for the City of
Chandler consists of multiple job duties including the
milling, soil stabilization, crack fill, paving and striping
of over 750,000 SY of existing roadways over the
last 8 years. Last year on this contract, we applied
over 800,000 LF of crack fill. These roads included
residential, industrial, and arterial paving. As prime
contractor, M.R. Tanner self-performed 80% of the
scope. This contract was ongoing in nature, Chandler
provides multiple quarter section maps and it is upon us
to determine a schedule to complete their work. Many of
these quarter section maps are active at the same time.
M.R. Tanner always finishes under budget and adheres very closely to
their published schedule. They always go above and beyond what is
expected for the City and residents.

#2: DEER VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT
PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE
DESCRIPTION:
The Deer Valley School District enlisted our help for
the maintenance on their parking lots and driveways
during the summer months. For every school district, the
summer months are key to achieving their maintenance
goals, as they have less than normal traffic flow during
this time. That being said, there is a lot of work to
happen over a 3 month time period. It was critical to
adhere very closely to the schedule that we published
from the inception of the project. We have worked with
Deer Valley School district for years and have continued
to finish within their time constraints. This work included
crack seal, seal coat, striping, and minor asphalt repairs.
Typically this work will include 25 schools at a time. We
have to coordinate these schedules with each school in
order to complete the project on time.

MERIDIAN ROAD REPAIR
DESCRIPTION:
Meridian Road north of Ocotillo has always been a
road, but only used for local traffic/businesses. Queen
Creeks Right of Way only went north of Ocotillo for a ¼
of a mile. Historically, north of that was an old farm road.
However, Pinal county improved that section, leaving
the Queen Creek portion in need of improvements. We
took the existing road and utilized the existing grade,
paved, striped and provided pavement maintenance
to the existing road. This was all done in less than two
weeks.

RESIDENTIAL OVERLAY
M.R. Tanner self-performed 75% of the scope for this
City of Phoenix contract which included maintenance
of speed humps/cushions, milling, paving, utility
adjustments and loop detectors. This contract was a
renewable contract that Phoenix elected to renew all
years possible (total of 4 contracts).
There are many factors that lead to the success of the
projects at M.R. Tanner, but we feel that our ability to
work with the needs of an owner is unparalleled among
other contractors. Utilizing several years of experience
and working with the owner, traffic control, milling and
paving of the project were a success for the City.

D. Method of Approach
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #1 PAVE & MILL PROJECTS | 27
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
GENERAL PROJECT APPROACH
1. Describe your firm’s overall commitment
to responding to the City’s request for
services?
M.R. Tanner Construction is committed to responding
quickly and appropriately to any needs for the City
of Buckeye. This includes planning, design input,
budgeting, scheduling as well as the actual construction
of any street maintenance needs. M.R. Tanner is
fortunate enough to have multiple crews. This enables
us to act quickly on these types of projects.
We feel that our work history and renewable contracts
demonstrate that we bring the best to your projects
every day. We also pride ourselves in getting the job
done right the first time. This efficient production and
high-quality product has been the reason why other
municipalities and agencies decide to choose us year
after year. M. R. Tanner Construction has held more
than 50 contracts that were renewable in nature. All of
these contracts have been renewed to the maximum
allowable time.
2. Describe how your firm handles cost con-
trol (daily, monthly and completion tracking/
reporting); scheduling (initial and progress
schedules); how are cost overruns identified
and how are they mitigated?
COST CONTROL
If not monitored, costs can easily overrun. M.R. Tanner
Construction implements daily, monthly and completion
reporting to help avoid overruns. We have found that
the best way to mitigate cost overruns is to attach the
problem from pre-construction stages. Once we have
a grasp on what the municipality would like to do,
we go and take accurate measurements. These field
measurements will define a cost estimate. This will
help minimize the chances of overrunning a certain line
item. For example, often times agencies will provide us
measurements. If we are told there are 20,000 SY, when
there are actually 22,000 SY, these field measurements
will let us know beforehand that there is a discrepancy.
This will prevent overruns.
Once the job is awarded and contracts are written,
we track quantities on a daily basis. We will track
these quantities and review them with your City’s field
contact.
Reviewing the field quantities on a daily basis will
remove the unknowns. These daily costs will then be
totaled on a weekly basis and compared against the bid
quantities.
On a monthly basis, pay applications will be generated
and used to compare against the bid quantity totals.
Through we never anticipate overruns, this would show
the beginnings or overrunning a line item.
Once a job is completed, pay applications, monthly and
daily quantities are compiled. Once combined, they will
be review and analyzed. These compiled reports will
help make sure that we are as accurate as possible.
As stated above, we try everything in our power
to minimize overruns. This is done through careful
planning through the pre-construction stages of the job.
More often than not, the only reason for overruns is due
to unforeseen conditions, or added requests from the
agency. The overruns will be mitigated by bringing our
costs to the City and negotiating a fair price for the City
and M.R. Tanner.
SCHEDULING
Scheduling is an imperative component of every job.
Initial progress schedules will be discussed with the
City. We will discuss any future events that are being
held in the area (parades, holidays, the beginning of
school, etc.) These dates will be avoided and we will find
a date that will work for the City.
Once the project is started, schedules are tracked
on a daily basis. Revisions to the schedule are
made depending on production. Weekly updated
schedules are sent to all parties (City, Contractor,
Subcontractors). This helps to remove any confusion
or miscommunication between all parties as everyone
knows what to expect.
3. Describe your firm’s conflict
communication plan; what is your proposed
escalation ladder?
As stated above, we feel that we do everything
within our power to avoid all conflicts by constant
communication and adherence to specifications and
schedule. Our track record will show that conflicts are
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #1 PAVE & MILL PROJECTS | 28
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
always minimized. However, if any conflicts arise, they
are met with open communication. We feel that most
conflicts only arise because of miscommunication. If
there is a conflict both parties will meet and discuss
the issue.
If the issue cannot be solved in the field, it would
be necessary to escalate the process to the next in
command. We cannot speak for the City, but our chain
of command would be as follows:
Field Superintendent hProject Manager h
Account ManagerhPresident
We feel conflicts can be minimized with partnering and
open lines of communication.
4. Describe your firm’s project closeout and
final documentation process.
In order to help facilitate project closeout and final
documentation, we maintain project folders onsite at
all times. The folders will include everything from dust
control records, plant reports, mix designs, asphalt
tickets, etc.
Once a job is complete, we will compile a folder for the
City which would include all of the things noted above.
We will also submit via out office (Lorraine King) all
bonding information and contract closeout documents
in a timely manner.
Job Order Management
M.R. Tanner Construction understands the importance
of returning all necessary paperwork, including cost
estimates and schedules in a timely manner. Though
every project is unique in what is required, we are
confident in our ability to return these needed items
quickly and accurately.
1. Upon receipt of a job order request for
proposal from the City, how many days does
your firm require to process and complete
all necessary paperwork and return a
proposal to the City?
Each project is unique and depending on the scope of
work we will require different pricing. As such, jobs that
have a small scope of work would only require a couple
of days to accurately return pricing; however, jobs with a
larger scope of work would require a few days to return
pricing. Therefore, we would require 2-5 days to return
accurate pricing/schedules for requests from the City.
2. Upon acceptance of a proposal and
issuance of a NTP, how many days does your
firm typically require to mobilize forces and
start construction?
M.R. Tanner Construction has multiple crews which can
be used to respond quickly to any requests from the
City. If material is readily available, we can mobilize on
one week’s notice.
Benefit
M.R. Tanner has the availability, flexibility, and quick
response required for successful JOC projects, and
has a proven track record with municipalities across
the Phoenix Metro.
3. Describe your firm’s change request
procedure and how change orders are
communicated with the City?
If we start the work and there is a change in scope
which would warrant a change request, we would get
a full grasp of what needed to be done. Once we were
confident that we understood the full desire of the
City, our field superintendent would communicate the
changes with our estimating department. They would, in
turn, re-evaluate areas that had changed in the estimate.
If there were cost savings, we would pass the savings
on to the city, if there were cost increases, we would get
the best available pricing and discuss the costs with the
City’s representatives.
Value Analysis/Value Engineering/
Risk Mitigation
1. What capabilities does your firm have to
provide additional Value Analysis/Value
Engineering to Job Orders of limited
design prior to construction? What is your
willingness to provide these services as part
of your job order quotation?
With the years of experience between the project team,
M.R. Tanner has the capabilities to make suggestions
to the City that could decrease the cost of construction
and increase the sustainability of the road.
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #1 PAVE & MILL PROJECTS | 29
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
For example, on the Sun City West Mill and
Resurface Phase 2 project, the roads on the
project were consistently flat which caused problems
with drainage. The job required us to remove the full
depth of existing asphalt. Instead of removing all the
material from the site, we milled out the edges and
pulverized the center. We then used the onsite-
generated, pulverized material to increase the crown
and improve drainage.
Making this one suggestion saved the County the cost
of bringing in more material from offsite sources to
increase the crown and improve drainage. The finished
product improved and increased the life of the roadway.
With our experience in street maintenance, we are
confident in our ability to make valued engineering
recommendations which can decrease the cost of
construction and increase the life of the road. We are
also extremely willing to provide these services as part
of your job order quotation.
2. What capabilities do you have to identify
and communicate various opportunities
for risk mitigation with the City at the
time of Job Order development? What risk
Avoidance strategies have you commonly
employed and shared with Owners to
Reduce threats to the project’s success?
Between the seven key personnel, we bring over years
of experience to the JOC. Working in construction, we
all realize that there are risks involved. However, with
our experience, we feel that we are able to identify and
communicate various opportunities for risk mitigation
with the City.
As an example, on an ARRA project for the City
of Phoenix, we were milling 7th Street. Though
the project was left extremely clean, the small dust fines
in the milled surface would begin to break off and cause
a dust problem. This causes issues with both air-borne
contaminants and dust violations. In an effort to try and
come up with a solution we tried spraying SS1-H right
after milling but days before paving. Once the SS1-H set
up we would allow traffic to use the lane again. This
small procedural change eliminated the risk of dust fines
and air-born contaminants. We have since utilized this
practice on all full-width milling jobs in high traffic areas.
Subcontractor Selection Plan
M.R. Tanner will select subcontractors based on
a combination of experience, qualifications and
price while meeting the 3% SBE utilization goal. We
will submit our list of proposed subcontractors for
prequalification to the MCDOT for approval. For the
selection of major subcontractors, M.R. Tanner will
pre-qualify a minimum of three subcontractors for each
major package or work category.
Before interested subcontractors can submit bids
on these packages, they must be pre-qualified by
furnishing the following information and meeting the
stated criteria:
¬
Possession of an appropriate contractor’s license.
¬
Ability to meet insurance requirements.
¬
If required, provide a statement from their surety
company verifying bonding capacity and bonding
rate.
¬
Identify and describe projects of similar scope,
size and schedule completed by the subcontractor
which demonstrates their capacity to perform
(include owner, project name, dates performed,
name and telephone number).
¬
Furnish project management team resumes if no
previous experience with M.R. Tanner (project
manager and project superintendent at a minimum).
¬
Identify a contract or subcontract held by firm or
officer of the firm, which has been terminated within
the last five years.
Another example, many street maintenance
projects require the use of large trucks. We were
paving an area in Phoenix where overhead power lines
caused concern because they were so low and would be
knocked down if the truck had its bed raised. In order to
mitigate the risk, we went out prior to construction with
the trucking company and expressed our concern. They
had a truck base onsite at all times standing by each
potential power line risk to ensure that the trick had its
bed down prior to crossing the power line.
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #1 PAVE & MILL PROJECTS | 30
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
¬
Identify any claim arising from a contract which
resulted in litigation or arbitration within the last five
years. Briefly describe the circumstances and the
outcomes.
¬
State their ability to provide manpower and
resources to meet the project schedule and
milestones.
¬
Maintenance of a formal safety program.
¬
State their current E-Mod rate.
Subcontractors submitting satisfactory responses to
the above will be pre-qualified, and then requested to
submit a competitive bid. M.R. Tanner will distribute
drawings and specifications, and when appropriate,
conduct pre-bid conferences with the pre-qualified
subcontractors.

understand this commitment means having key personnel being dedicated to the varying and on-going needs of
the City. We also understand that we will be asked to work efficiently, in time for tight deadlines and end of fiscal
year constraints. Again, as demonstrated on the past projects, we are fully capable to react quickly and complete
the project in time for all of the City’s time constraints. Whether it’s rapid estimate turnarounds, paperwork and
documentation or mobilization to the project, M.R. Tanner is organized to respond immediately.
Thank you again for your consideration. We look forward to meeting with you to further discuss our qualifications.
Please feel free to contact me at (480) 633-8500 with any questions you may have.

DESCRIPTION:
This renewable annual contract project for the City of
Chandler consists of multiple job duties including the
milling, soil stabilization, crack fill, paving and striping
of over 750,000 SY of existing roadways over the
last 8 years. Last year on this contract, we applied
over 800,000 LF of crack fill. These roads included
residential, industrial, and arterial paving. As prime
contractor, M.R. Tanner self-performed 80% of the
scope. This contract was ongoing in nature, Chandler
provides multiple quarter section maps and it is upon us
to determine a schedule to complete their work. Many of
these quarter section maps are active at the same time.

#2: DEER VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT
PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE
DESCRIPTION:
The Deer Valley School District enlisted our help for
the maintenance on their parking lots and driveways
during the summer months. For every school district, the
summer months are key to achieving their maintenance
goals, as they have less than normal traffic flow during
this time. That being said, there is a lot of work to
happen over a 3 month time period. It was critical to
adhere very closely to the schedule that we published
from the inception of the project. We have worked with
Deer Valley School district for years and have continued
to finish within their time constraints. This work included
crack seal, seal coat, striping, and minor asphalt repairs.
Typically this work will include 25 schools at a time. We
have to coordinate these schedules with each school in
order to complete the project on time.

DESCRIPTION:
Meridian Road north of Ocotillo has always been a

Creeks Right of Way only went north of Ocotillo for a ¼

However, Pinal county improved that section, leaving
the Queen Creek portion in need of improvements. We
took the existing road and utilized the existing grade,
paved, striped and provided pavement maintenance

M.R. Tanner self-performed 75% of the scope for this
City of Phoenix contract which included maintenance
of speed humps/cushions, milling, paving, utility
adjustments and loop detectors. This contract was a
renewable contract that Phoenix elected to renew all
years possible (total of 4 contracts).
There are many factors that lead to the success of the
projects at M.R. Tanner, but we feel that our ability to
work with the needs of an owner is unparalleled among
other contractors. Utilizing several years of experience
and working with the owner, traffic control, milling and
paving of the project were a success for the City.

RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
GENERAL PROJECT APPROACH
1. Describe your firm’s overall commitment
to responding to the City’s request for
services?
M.R. Tanner Construction is committed to responding
quickly and appropriately to any needs for the City
of Buckeye. This includes planning, design input,
budgeting, scheduling as well as the actual construction
of any street maintenance needs. M.R. Tanner is
fortunate enough to have multiple crews. This enables
us to act quickly on these types of projects.
We feel that our work history and renewable contracts
demonstrate that we bring the best to your projects
every day. We also pride ourselves in getting the job
done right the first time. This efficient production and
high-quality product has been the reason why other
municipalities and agencies decide to choose us year
after year. M. R. Tanner Construction has held more
than 50 contracts that were renewable in nature. All of
these contracts have been renewed to the maximum
allowable time.
2. Describe how your firm handles cost con-
trol (daily, monthly and completion tracking/
reporting); scheduling (initial and progress
schedules); how are cost overruns identified
and how are they mitigated?
COST CONTROL
If not monitored, costs can easily overrun. M.R. Tanner
Construction implements daily, monthly and completion
reporting to help avoid overruns. We have found that
the best way to mitigate cost overruns is to attach the
problem from pre-construction stages. Once we have
a grasp on what the municipality would like to do,
we go and take accurate measurements. These field
measurements will define a cost estimate. This will
help minimize the chances of overrunning a certain line
item. For example, often times agencies will provide us
measurements. If we are told there are 20,000 SY, when
there are actually 22,000 SY, these field measurements
will let us know beforehand that there is a discrepancy.
This will prevent overruns.
Once the job is awarded and contracts are written,
we track quantities on a daily basis. We will track
these quantities and review them with your City’s field
contact.
Reviewing the field quantities on a daily basis will
remove the unknowns. These daily costs will then be
totaled on a weekly basis and compared against the bid
quantities.
On a monthly basis, pay applications will be generated
and used to compare against the bid quantity totals.
Through we never anticipate overruns, this would show
the beginnings or overrunning a line item.
Once a job is completed, pay applications, monthly and
daily quantities are compiled. Once combined, they will
be review and analyzed. These compiled reports will
help make sure that we are as accurate as possible.
As stated above, we try everything in our power
to minimize overruns. This is done through careful
planning through the pre-construction stages of the job.
More often than not, the only reason for overruns is due
to unforeseen conditions, or added requests from the
agency. The overruns will be mitigated by bringing our
costs to the City and negotiating a fair price for the City
and M.R. Tanner.
SCHEDULING
Scheduling is an imperative component of every job.
Initial progress schedules will be discussed with the
City. We will discuss any future events that are being
held in the area (parades, holidays, the beginning of
school, etc.) These dates will be avoided and we will find
a date that will work for the City.
Once the project is started, schedules are tracked
on a daily basis. Revisions to the schedule are
made depending on production. Weekly updated
schedules are sent to all parties (City, Contractor,
Subcontractors). This helps to remove any confusion
or miscommunication between all parties as everyone
knows what to expect.
3. Describe your firm’s conflict
communication plan; what is your proposed
escalation ladder?
As stated above, we feel that we do everything
within our power to avoid all conflicts by constant
communication and adherence to specifications and
schedule. Our track record will show that conflicts are
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #2 SEALING APPLICATION PROJ. | 28
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
always minimized. However, if any conflicts arise, they
are met with open communication. We feel that most
conflicts only arise because of miscommunication. If
there is a conflict both parties will meet and discuss
the issue.
If the issue cannot be solved in the field, it would
be necessary to escalate the process to the next in
command. We cannot speak for the City, but our chain
of command would be as follows:
Field Superintendent hProject Manager h
Account ManagerhPresident
We feel conflicts can be minimized with partnering and
open lines of communication.
4. Describe your firm’s project closeout and
final documentation process.
In order to help facilitate project closeout and final
documentation, we maintain project folders onsite at
all times. The folders will include everything from dust
control records, plant reports, mix designs, asphalt
tickets, etc.
Once a job is complete, we will compile a folder for the
City which would include all of the things noted above.
We will also submit via out office (Lorraine King) all
bonding information and contract closeout documents
in a timely manner.
Job Order Management
M.R. Tanner Construction understands the importance
of returning all necessary paperwork, including cost
estimates and schedules in a timely manner. Though
every project is unique in what is required, we are
confident in our ability to return these needed items
quickly and accurately.
1. Upon receipt of a job order request for
proposal from the City, how many days does
your firm require to process and complete
all necessary paperwork and return a
proposal to the City?
Each project is unique and depending on the scope of
work we will require different pricing. As such, jobs that
have a small scope of work would only require a couple
of days to accurately return pricing; however, jobs with a
larger scope of work would require a few days to return
pricing. Therefore, we would require 2-5 days to return
accurate pricing/schedules for requests from the City.
2. Upon acceptance of a proposal and
issuance of a NTP, how many days does your
firm typically require to mobilize forces and
start construction?
M.R. Tanner Construction has multiple crews which can
be used to respond quickly to any requests from the
City. If material is readily available, we can mobilize on
one week’s notice.
Benefit
M.R. Tanner has the availability, flexibility, and quick
response required for successful JOC projects, and
has a proven track record with municipalities across
the Phoenix Metro.
3. Describe your firm’s change request
procedure and how change orders are
communicated with the City?
If we start the work and there is a change in scope
which would warrant a change request, we would get
a full grasp of what needed to be done. Once we were
confident that we understood the full desire of the
City, our field superintendent would communicate the
changes with our estimating department. They would, in
turn, re-evaluate areas that had changed in the estimate.
If there were cost savings, we would pass the savings
on to the city, if there were cost increases, we would get
the best available pricing and discuss the costs with the
City’s representatives.
Value Analysis/Value Engineering/
Risk Mitigation
1. What capabilities does your firm have to
provide additional Value Analysis/Value
Engineering to Job Orders of limited
design prior to construction? What is your
willingness to provide these services as part
of your job order quotation?
With the years of experience between the project team,
M.R. Tanner has the capabilities to make suggestions
to the City that could decrease the cost of construction
and increase the sustainability of the road.
M. R. TANNER CONSTRUCTION | CITY OF BUCKEYE | JOC STREET MAINTENANCE, CATEGORY #2 SEALING APPLICATION PROJ. | 29
RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
For example, on the Sun City West Mill and
Resurface Phase 2 project, the roads on the
project were consistently flat which caused problems
with drainage. The job required us to remove the full
depth of existing asphalt. Instead of removing all the
material from the site, we milled out the edges and
pulverized the center. We then used the onsite-
generated, pulverized material to increase the crown
and improve drainage.
Making this one suggestion saved the County the cost
of bringing in more material from offsite sources to
increase the crown and improve drainage. The finished
product improved and increased the life of the roadway.
With our experience in street maintenance, we are
confident in our ability to make valued engineering
recommendations which can decrease the cost of
construction and increase the life of the road. We are
also extremely willing to provide these services as part
of your job order quotation.
2. What capabilities do you have to identify
and communicate various opportunities
for risk mitigation with the City at the
time of Job Order development? What risk
Avoidance strategies have you commonly
employed and shared with Owners to
Reduce threats to the project’s success?
Between the seven key personnel, we bring over years
of experience to the JOC. Working in construction, we
all realize that there are risks involved. However, with
our experience, we feel that we are able to identify and
communicate various opportunities for risk mitigation
with the City.
As an example, on an ARRA project for the City
of Phoenix, we were milling 7th Street. Though
the project was left extremely clean, the small dust fines
in the milled surface would begin to break off and cause
a dust problem. This causes issues with both air-borne
contaminants and dust violations. In an effort to try and
come up with a solution we tried spraying SS1-H right
after milling but days before paving. Once the SS1-H set
up we would allow traffic to use the lane again. This
small procedural change eliminated the risk of dust fines
and air-born contaminants. We have since utilized this
practice on all full-width milling jobs in high traffic areas.
Subcontractor Selection Plan
M.R. Tanner will select subcontractors based on
a combination of experience, qualifications and
price while meeting the 3% SBE utilization goal. We
will submit our list of proposed subcontractors for
prequalification to the MCDOT for approval. For the
selection of major subcontractors, M.R. Tanner will
pre-qualify a minimum of three subcontractors for each
major package or work category.
Before interested subcontractors can submit bids
on these packages, they must be pre-qualified by
furnishing the following information and meeting the
stated criteria:
¬
Possession of an appropriate contractor’s license.
¬
Ability to meet insurance requirements.
¬
If required, provide a statement from their surety
company verifying bonding capacity and bonding
rate.
¬
Identify and describe projects of similar scope,
size and schedule completed by the subcontractor
which demonstrates their capacity to perform
(include owner, project name, dates performed,
name and telephone number).
¬
Furnish project management team resumes if no
previous experience with M.R. Tanner (project
manager and project superintendent at a minimum).
¬
Identify a contract or subcontract held by firm or
officer of the firm, which has been terminated within
the last five years.
Another example, many street maintenance
projects require the use of large trucks. We were
paving an area in Phoenix where overhead power lines
caused concern because they were so low and would be
knocked down if the truck had its bed raised. In order to
mitigate the risk, we went out prior to construction with
the trucking company and expressed our concern. They
had a truck base onsite at all times standing by each
potential power line risk to ensure that the trick had its
bed down prior to crossing the power line.

RFQ #: 2019005
D. Method of Approach
¬
Identify any claim arising from a contract which
resulted in litigation or arbitration within the last five
years. Briefly describe the circumstances and the
outcomes.
¬
State their ability to provide manpower and
resources to meet the project schedule and
milestones.
¬
Maintenance of a formal safety program.
¬
State their current E-Mod rate.
Subcontractors submitting satisfactory responses to
the above will be pre-qualified, and then requested to
submit a competitive bid. M.R. Tanner will distribute
drawings and specifications, and when appropriate,
conduct pre-bid conferences with the pre-qualified
subcontractors.
