PSA25-3522CA
Page 2 City Attorney Approved Version 5/22/2024
be granted if requested by Contractor and agreed to in writing by the City Manager or the Division Director
as authorized by the City Manager (“Director”). The City Manager or Director will give allowance for
documented and substantiated unforeseeable and unavoidable delays not caused by a lack of foresight
on the part of Contractor, or delays caused by City inaction or other agencies' lack of timely action. In no
event shall a specific Task Description exceed the term of this Agreement.
5. COMPENSATION
The cumulative total for all projects allowed pursuant to this Agreement will not exceed five hundred
thousand dollars ($500,000). Fees will be paid on a project-by-project basis and will be based on
Contractor’s Schedule of Rates specified in Exhibit “A”. Prior to initiation of any project work by
Contractor, City shall prepare a Project Task Description and Fee Allotment (the "Task Description") which,
upon signature by Contractor and for City, the City Manager or Director, will be considered a part of this
Agreement. The Task Description will include a detailed scope of services for the particular project being
considered and a statement of Contractor's fee to complete the project in accordance with the specified
scope of services. The Task Description will also include a description of the method of payment and will
be based upon an hourly rate, percentage of project complete, completion of specific project tasks or a
combination thereof.
If the City or CMWD elect to extend the term of the Master Services Agreement, adjustments to the rate
schedule may be permitted. Upon receipt of a written request from the Contractor, the City or CMWD
may consider approving a rate schedule increase. Rate schedule increases will be considered for each
anniversary of the Agreement effective date after the initial three-year term. An increase to the rate
schedule will be calculated based on the proceeding 12-month percentage change in the Consumer Price
Index, San Diego Area, for All Urban Customers (CPI-U) , as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or
5.0%, whichever is lower. If the CPI-U is a negative number, then the rate schedule will not be adjusted
for that year. The Contractor must submit a request and justification to increase the rate schedule at least
sixty days prior to the anniversary of the effective date, assuming the City or CMWD opt to extend the
Master Services Agreement. The justification accompanying the written request should detail the
rationale for the requested adjustment, and the requested adjustment amount, supported by relevant
documentation (e.g., CPI-U or 5.0%, whichever is less). Approval of rate schedule increase by the City or
CMWD must be documented in an amendment to the Agreement.
6. PREVAILING WAGE RATES
Any construction, alteration, demolition, repair, and maintenance work, including work performed during
design and preconstruction such as inspection and land surveying work, cumulatively exceeding $1,000
and performed under this Agreement are subject to state prevailing wage laws. The general prevailing
rate of wages, for each craft or type of worker needed to execute the contract, shall be those as
determined by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to the Section 1770, 1773 and 1773.1 of the
California Labor Code. Pursuant to Section 1773.2 of the California Labor code, a current copy of applicable
wage rates is on file in the office of the City Engineer. Contractor shall not pay less than the said specified
prevailing rates of wages to all such workers employed by him or her in the execution of the Agreement.
Contractor and any subcontractors shall comply with Section 1776 of the California Labor Code, which
generally requires keeping accurate payroll records, verifying and certifying payroll records, and making
them available for inspection. Contractor shall require any subcontractors to comply with Section 1776.
7. CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE

decreasing turnaround times. The Contractor is required to create a free web-based Procore user
account(s) and utilize web-based training / tutorials (as needed) to become familiar with the system.
Unless the Engineer approves otherwise, the Contractor shall process all project documents through
Procore because this platform will be used to submit, track, distribute and collaborate on project. If
unfamiliar or not otherwise trained with Procore, Contractor and applicable team members shall
complete a free training certification course located at http://learn.procore.com/procore-certification-
subcontractor. The Contractor is responsible for attaining their own Procore support, as needed, either
through the online training or reaching out to the Procore support team. It will be the responsibility of the
Contractor to regularly check Procore and review updated documents as they are added. There will be no
cost to the Contractor for use of Procore.
It is recommended that the Contractor provide mobile access for Windows, iOS located at
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/procore-construction-management/id374930542 or Android devices

installed to at least one on-site individual to provide real-time access to current posted drawings,
specifications, RFIs, submittals, schedules, change orders, project documents, as well as any deficient
observations or punch list items. Providing mobile access will improve communication, efficiency, and
productivity for all parties. The use of Procore for project management does not relieve the contractor of
any other requirements as may be specified in the contract documents.
8. STATUS OF CONTRACTOR
Contractor will perform the Services in Contractor's own way as an independent contractor and in pursuit
of Contractor's independent calling, and not as an employee of City. Contractor will be under control of
City only as to the result to be accomplished, but will consult with City as necessary. The persons used by
Contractor to provide services under this Agreement will not be considered employees of City for any
purposes.
The payment made to Contractor pursuant to the Agreement will be the full and complete compensation
to which Contractor is entitled. City will not make any federal or state tax withholdings on behalf of
Contractor or its agents, employees or subcontractors. City will not be required to pay any workers'
compensation insurance or unemployment contributions on behalf of Contractor or its employees or
subcontractors. Contractor agrees to indemnify City within thirty (30) days for any tax, retirement
contribution, social security, overtime payment, unemployment payment or workers' compensation
payment which City may be required to make on behalf of Contractor or any agent, employee, or
subcontractor of Contractor for work done under this Agreement. At the City’s election, City may deduct
the indemnification amount from any balance owing to Contractor.
9. CONTRACTOR EVALUATIONS
Work performed under this Master Services Agreement may be subject to the City’s contractor evaluation
program. Prior to the release of any task orders, the Contractor will be notified of the program
requirements and will receive a copy of the evaluation criteria and process. The Contractor’s performance
may be evaluated and the results will be considered for future task orders or agreements.
10. SUBCONTRACTING
Contractor will not subcontract any portion of the Services without prior written approval of City. If
Contractor subcontracts any of the Services, Contractor will be fully responsible to City for the acts and
omissions of Contractor's subcontractor and of the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the
subcontractor, as Contractor is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Contractor.
Nothing contained in this Agreement will create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor

11. OTHER CONTRACTORS
The City reserves the right to employ other Contractors in connection with the Services.
12. INDEMNIFICATION

performance of the work described herein caused by any willful misconduct or negligent act or omission
of the Contractor, any subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone
for whose acts any of them may be liable.
If Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Contractor’s
performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8), then,
and only to the extent required by Civil Code Section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated herein,
Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to claims that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to
the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, and, upon Contractor obtaining a
final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction. Contractor’s liability for such claim, including the
cost to defend, shall not exceed the Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault.
The parties expressly agree that any payment, attorney’s fee, costs or expense City incurs or makes to or
on behalf of an injured employee under the City’s self-administered workers’ compensation is included as
a loss, expense or cost for the purposes of this section, and that this section will survive the expiration or
early termination of this Agreement.

insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damage to property which may arise out of or in
connection with performance of the services by Contractor or Contractor’s agents, representatives,
employees or subcontractors. The insurance will be obtained from an insurance carrier admitted and
authorized to do business in the State of California. The insurance carrier is required to have a current
Best's Key Rating of not less than "A-:VII"; OR with a surplus line insurer on the State of California’s List of
Approved Surplus Line Insurers (LASLI) with a rating in the latest Best’s Key Rating Guide of at least “A:X”;OR an alien non-admitted insurer listed by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)
latest quarterly listings report.
13.1 Coverages and Limits. Contractor will maintain the types of coverages and minimum limits
indicated below, unless Risk Manager or City Manager approves a lower amount. These minimum
amounts of coverage will not constitute any limitations or cap on Contractor's indemnification obligations
under this Agreement. City, its officers, agents and employees make no representation that the limits of
the insurance specified to be carried by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to protect
Contractor. If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate, Contractor will
obtain such additional insurance coverage, as Contractor deems adequate, at Contractor's sole expense.
The full limits available to the named insured shall also be available and applicable to the City as an
additional insured.

acknowledges that the filing of a false claim may subject Contractor to an administrative debarment
proceeding as the result of which Contractor may be prevented to act as a Contractor on any public work

jurisdiction is grounds for City to terminate this Agreement.
