Prior to the Selection Committee reviewing proposals, the following methodology will be
applied to each consultant’s information provided in this area:
• The County shall total each of the consultant’s responses and create a ranking from
highest number to lowest number (TOTAL). Responses marked with an N/A or not
completed (or some similar notation will be given the score of zero (0)). Consultants
who do not turn in information as requested will be given the lowest number of
criteria points (0).
• The greatest number of criteria points allowed in this criterion will be awarded to the
agency who has the highest TOTAL.
• The next highest consultant’s TOTAL will be divided by the highest consultant’s
TOTAL which will then be multiplied by criteria points to determine the consultant’s
criteria points awarded. Each subsequent consultant’s criteria point score will be
calculated in the same manner.
• Points awarded will be extended to the first decimal point (per Microsoft Excel).
The points awarded by consultant will be distributed to the Selection Committee prior to
their evaluation of the proposals. The Selection Committee will review the consultant’s
proposal to ensure consistency and completion of all tasks in the RFP, and review the
Points Awarded per consultant. The Selection Committee may, at their sole discretion
modify the criteria points assigned after a thorough review of the proposal and prior to
final ranking by the final Selection Committee.

outlined herein.
In order for the firm to be awarded any points for this tab, the County requests that the

similar nature to this solicitation as a part of their proposal. The County will only use the
methodology calculations for the first five (5) references (only) submitted by the vendor
in their proposal.
Prior to the Selection Committee reviewing proposals, the following methodology will be
applied to each vendor’s information provided in this area:
i. The County shall total each of the firm’s reference scores and
create a ranking from highest number of points to lowest number of
points.
ii. The highest number of points, five (5), will be awarded to the vendor
who has the highest reference score.

determine the vendor’s Points Awarded. Each subsequent firm’s
reference score will be calculated in the same manner.
iv. Points awarded will be extended to the first decimal point (per
Microsoft Excel).
For illustrative purposes only, see chart for an example of how these points would be

the next meeting. The Individual Selection Committee Score and Rank Form is
merely a tool to assist the selection committee member in their review of the
proposals.
7. At the scheduled selection meeting, the members will present their independent
findings / conclusions / comments based on their reading and interpretation of the
materials presented to each other, and may ask questions of one another. At the
conclusion of that discussion, members of the public will be offered an opportunity
(not to exceed three (3) minutes) to provide comments.
8. At the conclusion of public comments (provided for in number 7), the selection
committee members will individually rank order each proposer. Collier County
selection committee members may consider all the material submitted by the
Proposer and other information Collier County may obtain to determine whether the
Proposer is capable of and has a history of successfully completing projects of this
type, including, without limitation, additional information Collier County may request,
clarification of proposer information, public comments, and/or additional credit
information.
9. Once the individual ranking has been completed, the Procurement professional will
direct selection committee members to read their individual ranking publically. The
Procurement professional will record individual rankings on the Final Ranking Sheet
which will mathematically compile into an overall selection committee rank of
proposers.
10. In any of the selection committee meeting deliberations, by consensus, members
may request to invite proposers in to clarify their proposals, ask for additional
information, present materials, interview, ask questions, etc. The members may
consider any and all information obtained through this method in formulating their

individual ranking and subsequent selection committee overall ranking and final
ranking.
11. The selection committee’s overall rank of firms in order of preference (from highest
beginning with a rank of one (1) to the lowest) will be discussed and reviewed by the
Procurement Strategist. By final consensus, and having used all information
presented (proposal, presentation, references, etc.), the selection committee
members will create a final ranking and staff will subsequently enter into
negotiations. Award of the contract is dependent upon the successful and full
execution of a mutually agreed contract, pending the final approval by the Board of
County Commissioners.
The County reserves the right to withdraw this RFP at any time and for any reason, and
to issue such clarifications, modifications, addendums, and/or amendments as it may
deem appropriate, including, but not limited, to requesting supplemental proposal
information.

Board approval, no firm or their agent shall contact any other employee of Collier County in reference to
this Proposal, with the exception of the Procurement Director or his designee(s). Failure to abide by this

The project for which the services are required is:
County Project Number: 66066.10
Descriptions: The principal intent of this project is to provide CEI and Related Services for the
replacement of an existing functionally obsolete bridge on White Boulevard
(#034020).
The Consultant and/or Sub-consultant(s) must be FDOT qualified (Rule Chapter 14-75) to perform the
assigned work and/or services required of the project. As a minimum, the Consultant must be qualified
to perform the following types of work:

Exceptions to these minimum types of work qualifications may be considered at the discretion of the

Agreement. Pursuant to Section 4.1.4 of the Construction Project Administration Manual (CPAM), the

Project Administrator shall be identical to the FDOT’s Resident Engineer and Project Administrator

36
Services provided by the Consultant shall comply with FDOT manuals, procedures, and memorandums
in effect as of the date of execution of the Agreement unless otherwise directed in writing by the
County. Such FDOT manuals, procedures, and memorandums are found at the State Construction
Office’s website.
On a single Construction Contract, it is a conflict of interest for a professional firm to receive
compensation from both the County and the Contractor either directly or indirectly.
Other projects developing within the geographical area of Collier County may be added at the County’s
discretion. The Consultant must perform to the satisfaction of the County’s representatives for
consideration of additional CEI services.
3.0 LENGTH OF SERVICE:
The Contract shall begin upon written notification to proceed (NTP) by the County and end when the
“as-built” documents are accepted by the County and the final pay application is processed. See Exhibit
“A”, paragraph 12.0, for “CERTIFICATION OF FINAL ESTIMATES”.
Please note: No work is authorized after the final completion date indicated in the NTP unless the time
of the contract is extended before the final completion date indicated in the NTP. Invoices for
unauthorized work will not be paid. Any request for time extension must be justified (as determined by
the County) and shall be submitted to the County’s Construction Project Manager a minimum of thirty
(30) days prior to the final completion date indicated in the NTP.
For estimating purposes, the CEI Services Contract shall begin approximately thirty (30) days prior to
written notification to proceed to the Contractor for the Construction Contract and end approximately
thirty (30) days after final acceptance of the Construction Contract.
County’s Construction Project Manager will track the execution of the Construction Contract such that
the Consultant is given timely authorization to begin work. While no personnel shall be assigned until
written notification by the County has been issued, the Consultant shall be ready to assign personnel
within two weeks of notification. For the duration of the project, coordinate closely with the County and
Contractor to minimize rescheduling of Consultant activities due to construction delays or changes in
scheduling of Contractor activities.

RE: Tab I – Letter of Transmittal – Solicitation 16-6560 – CEI Services for the White
Boulevard over Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement Project
Dear Ms. Colon:
The AECOM Team is pleased to submit our qualifications in response to your request for proposal (RFP) to
provide CEI Services for the White Boulevard over Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement Project. As
specified in the RFP, we have attached one paper copy labeled "Master" and five (5) CDs with one copy of
the proposal in pdf format for your review.
AECOM is a full-service A/E and CEI firm with over 1,100 talented people in offices statewide, including
more than 85 CEI personnel. We assign our staff to projects based on matching their particular skills to the
project at hand. Transportation and infrastructure have been our bread-and-butter work since opening
major, permanent operations in Florida in 1957, with our largest office located in Tampa. Of particular
relevance, we have served all Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Districts and dozens of county
and municipal clients statewide, including Collier County. In a number of cases, these services have been
continuous for over 25 years. We believe this attests to the high caliber of our services and our
commitment to our clients.
We are currently finalizing an agreement with the County to provide CEI services for the Vanderbilt Drive
Bridge Replacement Project, and expect to begin providing services this year. We believe the two projects
are timed so we can provide CEI services for the White Boulevard project by offering many of the same
members from the Vanderbilt Drive team. Sharing team members is not only cost effective, but provides
Collier County ease of communication since one manager will be overseeing both jobs.
Our proposed Project Manager, Crystal Gorman, PE, is a long-time resident of Collier County, and has
over 10 years of construction management experience on various large-scale roadway/bridge projects,
including more than three years of serving as Senior PE for AECOM and more than eight years as an
FDOT employee where she served as the Interstate Construction Resident Engineer in Southwest Florida.
Crystal recently completed the US 27/SR 80 interchange reconstruction project in Hendry County, which
was delivered to FDOT as the “FTBA Best in Construction Award for Best Interchange” in the State in
2013. Crystal’s extensive experience on large bridge and roadway reconstruction projects and her
enthusiasm to serve Collier County puts her in a strong position as leader and coordinator for our team.
Our Project Engineer, Steve Nappi, PE, has extensive experience administering construction contracts
under FDOT and local government specifications. Steve is a valuable asset to the team with nearly 11
years of experience ranging from structural design to being in responsible charge for FDOT on multiple
highly complex projects. He is highly dedicated to his clients, and this experience has made him fully
aware of the County’s expectations of the CEI and their required documentation. Crystal and Steve have a
solid working relationship having worked together on several local government CEI jobs.
Additionally, our proposed team is well-versed in documenting compliance with contract documents and
agency requirements, and in proactive, effective communication with the client and its contractors to avoid
delays and budget over-runs. We are extremely well organized and are experienced in managing these
types of projects.

II Consultant Approach and Understanding
Consultant's Understanding of the Project
AECOM is pleased to present this letter of interest for
the upcoming White Boulevard at Cypress Canal Bridge
Replacement Project. We have performed a preliminary
plan review of the 100% submittal and visited the jobsite to
ensure we gain a solid understanding of the project.
We understand that the County wishes to replace the
existing two-lane bridge over Cypress Canal with a more
robust concrete structure. The wider replacement will have
two 12-foot travel lanes, two 5.5-foot shoulders and two 6.5-
foot raised concrete sidewalks. The intermediate bents will
rest on eight 18-inch square concrete piles, while the end
bents will rest on six 18-inch square piles. The relocated
raw water line will require two 18-inch square piles to span
the Canal totaling 30 piles for the project. The three-span
bridge deck will be 1’-6” thick cast in place concrete and
poured in five segments; unless the Contractor proposes
an alternate pour sequence and receives approval from the
Engineer of Record (EOR). Quadguard II crash cushions
and a bicycle rail on concrete parapet wall round out the
safety features of the new bridge.
Construction of this project requires the use of a temporary
structure to divert traffic to the north, which will result in
minimal impact to the traveling public. Utility relocations
are required by both FP&L and Comcast. The overhead
electric relocation must be performed prior to construction
to facilitate installation of the temporary structure, as well as
removal of the existing bridge and subsequent replacement.
The Comcast line currently attached to the existing bridge
will require removal prior to demolition. The raw water line
is to be relocated by the Contractor under this contract and
will require coordination with Collier County Utilities.
The typical section for the roadway shows two 12-foot travel
lanes, two 4-foot shoulders, with 2-feet of Type F curb and
gutter and two 6-foot concrete sidewalks. New roadway
construction will utilize 12 inches of stabilized subgrade,
10 inches of limerock base, 3 inches of type SP structural
course and 1.5 inches of FC-12.5 for the friction course.
Areas of the existing roadway remaining per plan will be
milled 1.5 inches and 1.5 inches of FC-12.5 will be placed.
The roadside slopes will consist of a 4:1 slope beginning 2
feet from the edge of sidewalk for a distance of ten feet until
sloping 3:1 into the ditch bottoms. From the varying ditch
width, the slope will rise 3:1 tying back into original grade.
The wider cross section requires significant drainage
improvements, which eliminates existing mitered ends
and ditches in front of residences. These improvements
will require the Contractor to relocate fences and install
mailboxes, which will have to be handled delicately as
many are custom works. New driveway turnouts will be
installed at four active driveways and two at lots that are not
cleared. These turnouts will include installation of 24” & 42”
reinforced concrete pipes to carry storm water to the control
structures. Close coordination with the property owners
will be required to ensure their satisfaction and prevent the

County from receiving unnecessary
complaints for these activities.
Due to the limited right of way of
the facility, construction access and
staging will be a challenge that will
need to be addressed in advance of
construction commencement.
Approach
AECOM has a strong reputation for effectively
communicating with project stakeholders. Our Team
always strives to keep everyone involved with the project
informed of major work items including schedules and
potential traffic impacts. Effective communication comes
naturally to our project team – regular communication
with the Collier County Project Manager will occur to
keep the PM updated on project progress, Contractor
schedule, project conflicts, requests for information,
quality control issues, Contractor performance issues,
notices of intent to claim, and any public concerns. All
AECOM Project Engineers are issued iPhones, and all
inspection staff members are provided with cameras, cell
phones, laptop computers and wireless Internet cards;
essentially mobile offices, to effectively communicate
with fellow staff, the Contractr, and the County. AECOM
also recognizes that email is the standard method of
communication for most construction projects. All verbal
directions or notices to the Contractor will be followed up
in writing whether in the field or at the office. Daily work
reports produced by our inspection staff will be clear and
concise, but with the necessary detail to track all project
progress. Detail is extremely important should a claim or
conflict arise on the project where daily work reports are
used for justification. Good communication is one of the
most important factors of a successful project. Fostering
a positive CEI-Contractor relationship at the beginning of
any project allows issues to be resolved and decisions
to be made at the lowest, most cost-effective level.
With this philosophy, we have been able to resolve
project issues and bring equitable solutions to our client
that the CEI team and Contractor have agreed upon.
The AECOM Team remains completely committed to
proactive problem resolution and accepts responsibility
to resolve problems with a “solve it here - solve it now”
approach. The AECOM Team will focus on a few key
points in our approach.
1.Keep an open dialogue with the Contractor. Open
discussion on project issues or upcoming work items often
produces solutions. Working together as a team builds
trust.
2.Stay ahead of progress (be proactive) by looking at the
plans for upcoming phases of work. AECOM’s philosophy of
“never be complacent” on a project with a positive trajectory
will always be in the back of our minds. Catching issues
early before they occur helps keep the project on schedule,
which is good for both the Contractor and the County.
3.The Contractor appreciates prompt responses.
AECOM consistently provides immediate action on any
incoming correspondence from the Contractor and other
stakeholders. We set short but reasonable timeframes for
turnaround and keep track of outstanding items in up-to-
date project logs.
4.While the Contractor appreciates responsiveness, AECOM
expects the same. We include action items at the end of
each weekly meeting agenda, which are then documented
in all meeting minutes for follow up. Issues that cannot be
resolved at the project level will be escalated to the Collier
County Project Manager.
Early detection of problems in the plans, whether they
are errors, omissions, conflicts, or unforeseen conditions
result in fewer time delays and will keep cost increases
to an absolute minimum.
Immediately upon final selection of this CEI contract,
if we are selected, and upon award of the construction
contract, we will begin coordination efforts we feel are
critical to the success of this project.
1.To follow up on our efforts during this CEI contract pursuit,
the AECOM Team would execute a full constructability
review of the White Boulevard at Cypress Canal Bridge
Replacement contract plans. Upon final selection, we would
prepare our constructability comments and meet with the
Collier County Project Manager and the EOR to discuss our
findings. This would also be an opportunity for us to discuss
with the EOR their approach to the design and obtain any
clarification on intent of specific plan items.
2.Upon award and execution of the Construction Contract,
the AECOM Team will schedule a meet-and-greet session
with the low-bid Contractor. This informal meeting is to set
the stage for a favorable project kick-off and helps establish
a partnering attitude. The AECOM Team has found this
special coordination effort to be extremely successful in the
past.
3.AECOM has a very comprehensive Quality Assurance/
Quality Control (QA/QC) Program. One of our first orders
of business would be to produce a QA Plan specifically
tailored to this project and submit it to the Collier County
Project Manager for their review and acceptance. The
AECOM Team is proud of our approach to Quality
Assurance, and we believe it will provide additional success
for this and future projects for Collier County.
Pre-construction Activities: A successful CEI project
requires commencement of services long before the
Contractor starts work. This is initiated with a thorough

existing condition surveys
•Review plans, specifications, and other contract
documents
•Develop file system/document control guidelines
•Review of Contractor’s baseline CPM schedule, QC
Plan, and other pre-construction submittals
Construction Activities: Once the day-to-day
construction activities begin, the following activities will
be part of our routine services to ensure the Contractor
provides the best construction quality to Collier County,
and minimize the risks for unnecessary costs or claims
to the lowest extent possible.
•Hold pre-activity meetings for all construction phases
and critical activities

The AECOM Team prides themselves on their
meticulous filing system and document process controls.
All documents and correspondence will be scanned and
filed on a daily basis for quick retrieval in accordance
with the County’s preferences.
Review Contractor’s Schedule: Effective use of
the schedule begins with a timely baseline submittal.
The AECOM Team intends to work closely with the
Contractor as soon as possible to formulate a baseline
schedule. While providing assistance, we will be careful
not to dictate means and methods or resource allocation.
Our goal is to have a baseline schedule established for
the project at the pre-construction conference so that
a detailed discussion can occur for the benefit of those
present.
•Upon submittal of the baseline schedule, the review
will include the following at a minimum:
•Completion date meets contract time or sooner
•Logical sequence of activities
•MOT phasing reflected in sequence
•Milestones included
AECOM CEI Services for the White Boulevard over
Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement Project
Solicitation #16-6560
II-4
• Check for reasonable production rates
• Adequate breakdown of activities to eliminate
durations in excess of 30 days
• Utility relocation durations included
• Cost loading analysis (if applicable)
• Contractor submittals with adequate review periods
in accordance with specs
• Include narrative identifying critical path
• Check that there is not an excess of activities shown
on the critical path
Project Schedule Updates: The AECOM Team will
ensure the schedule remains the focal point of the
project team by discussing in detail the schedule status
at the weekly progress meetings. The Contractor’s
schedule update should reflect construction progress
during the previous month. In updating his schedule, the
Contractor may choose to modify his sequence of events
and activities, or alter durations. If this occurs, we will
want to know why and whether there is an effect on the
overall project. If the update is accepted, the submitted
schedule then becomes the basis for future, “scheduled
vs. actual” activity analysis.
Two-Week Look-Ahead: The AECOM Team will ensure
that the Contractor’s two-week work plan is based on
the controlling items of work identified in the schedule.
Noncritical schedule activities will be monitored closely
as well. In the weekly meetings we will discuss with the
Contractor the plan for performing the work by using a
two-week look-ahead schedule. This will ensure that
all required equipment and materials are at the site for
construction and ready to proceed in a timely fashion.
Claims Avoidance and Construction Schedule:
We are fully cognizant that late delivery of the project
inconveniences the traveling public, involves increased
administration and construction costs to the County,
and may adversely affect the County’s reputation.
Consequently, we believe that timely completion and
maintenance of the construction schedule to be of the
utmost importance. In the pre-construction phase, a
preliminary schedule is the most valuable tool to analyze
for potential conflicts, overestimating/underestimating
production, unrealistic milestones, interface conflicts,
and more. The most effective means of dealing with
claims is to recognize the potential for their occurrence
early in the project and take the necessary steps to
eliminate the problems that may lead to such claims.
Special meetings prior to the commencement of major
activities on the project are also extremely useful in
the avoidance of claim situations. When circumstances
arise in which claims are justified and unavoidable, we
will take steps to resolve the field problem in order to
minimize impacts on the Contractor’s progress, thus
settling claims with the Contractor before they become
large and costly problems.
The most common causes of claims on a construction
project are design deficiencies, utility conflicts, and
unknown site conditions. The AECOM Team recognizes
that many of these problems are not beyond the ability
of the CEI to prevent, minimize, or resolve. The AECOM
Team has the ability to anticipate the type of claim that
could be presented and advise Collier County on the
probable value of the claim, as well as the recommended
position to take. We have the experience to successfully
negotiate substantiated claims and defend the County
against unsubstantiated ones.
Once a claim situation is identified, the CEI team will be
notified and asked to be conscientious of all activities
surrounding the claim. CEI staff will be expected to
document factual, concise observations in daily work
reports, photograph or videotape anything supporting
the claim or our defense, and track the Contractor’s work
effort on appropriate forms.
Key Features
AECOM has reviewed the plans and visited the site to
determine the key features of this project. The most
apparent key feature is the temporary structure and lane
shift that will carry traffic around the construction zone of
the replacement bridge. The use of a temporary bridge
expedites construction as the new bridge will not have
to be constructed in phases while allowing the traveling
public safe and efficient travel through the work zone.
As with any MOT phase, the safe implementation of the
temporary bridge and lane shift are critical. AECOM staff
maintains the required MOT certifications and will closely
monitor MOT inspection reports, ensure the worksite
traffic supervisor performs their duties under the Contract
and perform independent inspections to determine MOT
is in accordance with the contract documents and is
working as intended. Any discrepancies or suggestions
for improvements will immediately be brought to the
attention of the Contractor. The Contractor may elect
to utilize a Bailey or Acrow bridge for this application
which can be rented from the State. The Contractor will
benefit financially by completing the project as quickly
as possible as the temporary
bridge can be removed from
service and taken off rent.
Drainage is another key feature
of this project. The utilization
AECOM CEI Services for the White Boulevard over
Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement Project
Solicitation #16-6560
II-5
of underground pipes and structures will allow the
facility to be widened, adding shoulders and sidewalks,
making the roadway safer for both the vehicular traffic
and pedestrians to travel. As previously stated, there
is not much area available for staging so the work must
be properly scheduled in a manner to allow work to
progress without crews being in the same area. We will
assist the Contractor by discussing their CPM schedule
and 2-week look ahead at weekly progress meetings.
Lastly, this is a bridge replacement project making bridge
construction a key feature. We have provided staffing
specializing in bridge construction, which will prove
valuable when issues arise. Our staff has been involved
in the administration of numerous complex signature
bridges and has worked through extremely complicated
issues when encountered. We are well aware of the
methods of bridge building in the State of Florida and will
continue to assist the Contractor in delivering a quality
bridge.
Potential Risks
We have assessed some of the
potential risks associated with this
contract and will discuss three of
them. The first is utility relocation.
FP&L has an overhead electric
line to the north of the existing
bridge. This line will not allow
properly sized cranes to perform
the work under this contract,
which is why coordination of this
relocation is imperative. AECOM will contact FP&L to
see where the relocated line will be placed, checking
to be sure the new location will not pose OSHA safety
concerns during construction of the new bridge. Our
staff will monitor the progress against the construction
schedule and will utilize standard forms found in the
CPAM if delays appear to be eminent. Comcast has a
line attached to the existing bridge that also requires
relocation. Again, we will coordinate this relocation so it
will not be in conflict with other underground work on the
contract and monitor the work closely. The raw water
line is to be relocated to the south by the Contractor.
The Contractor is to adhere to the County specifications
when performing this work and is required to provide
a minimum 20-day notice prior to taking the line out of
service. Once the line is removed from service, it must
be reconnected within 12 hours. AECOM will coordinate
a pre-work meeting between the County and the
Contractor and will ensure that items discussed in the
meeting are met satisfactorily and the time restrictions
are adhered to.
The work under this contract requires the relocation
of fence and installation of driveway turnouts for
residents along the corridor. Some of this work requires
construction easements that must be procured prior
to beginning. AECOM will confirm easements are
obtained prior to allowing the Contractor to work in these
areas. Residents will be notified in advance of both the
construction impacting their access and relocations of
their property. The fences along the south side of the
roadway will need to be checked against the cross-
sections to determine if the fill needs to be adjusted
to avoid undermining foundations or creating large
gaps beneath the fence bottoms. Communication and
coordination with the property owners will be essential
so no surprises occur, causing undue complaints to the
County. AECOM believes we can stay ahead of this
and ensure property owners satisfaction throughout the
duration of the project.
There are potential environmental risks specifically
attributed to storm water run-off and turbidity caused by
in-water bridge construction operations. The Contractor
is responsible for maintaining drainage throughout
the duration of the project. AECOM will assist the
Contractor by reviewing the plans prior to beginning
construction to identify possible issues of maintaining the
drainage between phases. Items will be discussed and
brought to the attention of the Contractor so they can be
resolved. There is a note in the plans that no dewatering
is allowed unless a dewatering permit is issued by
SFWMD. AECOM will bring this to the attention to the
Contractor prior to construction and will also seek input
from SFWMD to determine the options we have for this
specific project. In-water turbidity causing operations will
be monitored to ensure compliance with the applicable
permits. We anticipate a request to preform holes
for pile installation due to the hard layer encountered

Experience of the Assigned Team / Staff
Qualifications/Certifications
The AECOM Team proposed for this project, and shown
on the organizational chart on the next page, is intimately
familiar with Collier County, the inspection criteria, and
expectations. We recognize that training is a vital part
of today’s CEI business. Due to the number of required
certifications necessary for construction inspection and
materials testing, AECOM has developed a qualifications
database that identifies training experience and
certifications for all CEI personnel. This database is used
and monitored to ensure that certifications are renewed
as necessary, and to track personnel classification and
each individual’s area of expertise. AECOM prides itself
in dedicating a considerable amount of funds annually to
properly train our staff. We understand the principle of
cross training and know this is important to properly and
efficiently execute our CEI role. You will find that our team
members have more than the required qualifications/
certifications for their respective classifications, which
allows for a well-rounded yet diversified team. When
selecting subconsultants, AECOM ensures that proposed
personnel are properly certified for their respective
positions.
Experience/Performance on Similar Projects
The AECOM Team has extensive CEI experience on
projects very similar to Collier County’s White Boulevard
over Cypress Canal Bridge Replacements project. The
CEI and support personnel included on this project team
have worked nearly their entire professional careers on
FDOT and County transportation projects in this area.
We are intimately familiar with multiple systems of project
documentation and document processing software, and
thoroughly familiar with the requirements, procedures,
manuals, processes, and expectations of Collier County.
We are currently finalizing an agreement with the County
to provide CEI services for the Vanderbilt Drive Bridge
Replacement Project, and expect to begin providing
services this year. We believe the two projects are timed
so we can provide CEI services for the White Boulevard
project by offering many of the same members from the
Vanderbilt Drive team. These team members were hand-
picked, not only for their relevant project experience on
similar bridge replacement projects, but also for their local
knowledge. We are eager to offer this team for the White
Boulevard bridge replacement project for Collier County,
and are confident that we can exceed your expectations.

Project Team Certifications
The AECOM Team members are currently working
together to complete ongoing assignments and have
successfully worked together in the past. Through
these and other prior contracts, our Team has become
thoroughly familiar with all types of construction. More
importantly, our staff has developed an awareness of
current FDOT and County practices, procedures, and
specifications that are applicable to the White Boulevard
Bridge project. There are several items within the CEI
scope of services that require full attention from the CEI
Team to ensure the contract runs seamlessly. Many
of those items are discussed in other sections within
this proposal; AECOM takes pride in our proactive
approach to contract management. Since our Team has
worked together on previous contracts, they understand
each other’s expectations and responsibilities that are
invaluable in successfully completing a CEI contract.
Several examples of recent relevant AECOM CEI
projects, either as a prime or as a major sub-consultant,
that include similar bridge work, are described below.
AECOM is proud of its performance in providing CEI
services. It is our belief that these projects include all

In preparation for this project, we have spent a
considerable amount of time reviewing the contract
documents, the roadway and structures plans, and
reviewing the site conditions. During this review, we took
note of each specific construction aspect of the job and
built our team ensuring that we’ve appropriately covered
each item with regard to staffing and experience. In
this section, we will outline how the AECOM Team is
experienced in each of these areas.
The White Boulevard Bridge replacement project
includes the following major construction elements:
• Roadway Reconstruction
• New Bridge Construction over Cypress Canal
• Milling and Resurfacing
• Temporary Bridge
• Utility Adjustments/Coordination
• Drainage Installations
• Pedestrian Facilities
• Signing and Pavement Markings
On nearly all of our past projects, roadway re-
construction, drainage installations, milling and
resurfacing, utility relocation, and signing and pavement
markings have been included. These are standard
roadway construction elements in almost every
transportation project, and our team can safely say we
are experts in these areas. AECOM personnel also pride
themselves on keeping abreast of current construction
issues that are ongoing throughout the state.
The remainder of the above-listed elements, however,
are not as common. The AECOM Team has the
necessary experience in each of these categories.
Bridge Construction – The AECOM Team has a
tremendous amount of bridge construction experience,
as shown in our staff’s resumes and in the projects
listed above. Our team members have worked on all
types of bridge projects, including bridge widenings,
bridge replacements, bridge rehabilitations, and
new bridges. AECOM fully understands all aspects
related to structures and the importance of effectively
administering this portion of the contract. AECOM
anticipates several pre-activity meetings for the
bridge construction including, but not limited to, pile
installation, concrete placement, temporary bridge/
MOT and utility relocations. The Contractor will be
required to submit a Pile Installation Plan, which we will
review with our geotechnical team for completeness
and acceptability. The plan will be monitored during
test pile driving operations along with performing PDA
to determine authorized pile lengths and establish
driving criteria. Any inefficiency in the Pile Installation
Plan will be reevaluated and revisions made should
the hammer-pile-soil system cause undue stress to the
piles. Once lengths and driving criteria are established,
the production pile installation will be monitored for
conformance to contract requirements from delivery of
the piles, lifting and handling of the piles and driving
operations.
Formwork and reinforcing steel will be inspected for
adherence to tolerances prior to all concrete placements.
Curing and form removal will be monitored after
placement to ensure form removal does not occur prior

to allowed timeframes or strength test results being
achieved. The concrete placement for the deck will be
discussed in detail at the concrete pre-activity meeting.
Topics to be covered will include lighting during the
placement, initial screed demonstrations, placement
rates, weather limitations, moisture-evaporation rate
monitoring, and finishing and curing activities. During
concrete placement for the deck, depth checks will be
performed, for overall depth as well as reinforcing steel
cover. Sampling and testing will be performed during
placement as is typical. Plastic finish requirements will
be in accordance with Specifications, and the laser
profile report will be reviewed prior to deck planing to
ensure optimal planing machine settings are applied.
The laser profile report after planing will be reviewed to
ensure smoothness requirements are met or exceeded
as required by Specifications.
Utility Adjustments – 80-90% of our past project
experience includes utility coordination and utility
relocations. We have worked with County and City water
facilities, sewer facilities, overhead and underground
electrical, fiber optics, overhead and underground phone
and cable facilities to name a few. It will be important
to establish contact and begin coordination with each
affected utility as soon as possible prior to construction.
The AECOM Team, with our Project Engineer Steve
Nappi taking the lead, fully anticipates assisting this
coordination effort with both the contractor and Utility
Agencies/Owners to facilitate the relocation efforts and
minimize potential delays to the project.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities – The AECOM Team
has significant experience with pedestrian and bike
facilities. The components of these facilities: grading,
concrete, asphalt, striping, signage, ADA access and
slopes, etc., are similar to other components within our
area of expertise. We will use our inspection principles
to ensure these items are constructed per plan and meet
ADA requirements.

THE E-VERIFY PROGRAM FOR EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING FOR EMPLOYERS USING A E-VERIFY EMPLOYER AGENT
ARTICLE I
PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) sets forth the points of agreement between the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS), AECOM Technology Corporation (Employer), and
TALX Corporation (E-Verify Employer Agent) regarding the Employer's and E-Verify Employer
Agent’s participation in the Employment Eligibility Verification Program (E-Verify). This MOU
explains certain features of the E-Verify program and enumerates specific responsibilities of
DHS, the Social Security Administration (SSA), the Employer, and the E-Verify Employer Agent.
References to the Employer include the E-Verify Employer Agent when acting on behalf of the
Employer. E-Verify is a program that electronically confirms an employee’s eligibility to work in
the United States after completion of the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form I-9).
For covered government contractors, E-Verify is used to verify the employment eligibility of all
newly hired employees and all existing employees assigned to Federal contracts or to verify the
entire workforce if the contractor so chooses.
Authority for the E-Verify program is found in Title IV, Subtitle A, of the Illegal Immigration
Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), Pub. L. 104-208, 110 Stat. 3009, as
amended (8 U.S.C. § 1324a note). Authority for use of the E-Verify program by Federal
contractors and subcontractors covered by the terms of Subpart 22.18, “Employment Eligibility
Verification”, of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (hereinafter referred to in this MOU as
a “Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause”) to verify the employment eligibility of
certain employees working on Federal contracts is also found in Subpart 22.18 and in Executive
Order 12989, as amended.
ARTICLE II
FUNCTIONS TO BE PERFORMED
A. RESPONSIBILITIES OF SSA
1. SSA agrees to provide the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent) with
available information that will allow the Employer to confirm the accuracy of Social Security
Numbers provided by all employees verified under this MOU and the employment
authorization of U.S. citizens.
2. SSA agrees to provide the Employer and E-Verify Employer Agent appropriate
assistance with operational problems that may arise during the Employer's participation in
E-Verify. SSA agrees to provide the E-Verify Employer Agent with names, titles, addresses,
and telephone numbers of SSA representatives to be contacted during the E-Verify

process.
3. SSA agrees to safeguard the information provided by the Employer through the E-Verify
program procedures, and to limit access to such information, as is appropriate by law, to
individuals responsible for the verification of Social Security Numbers and for evaluation of
E-Verify or such other persons or entities who may be authorized by SSA as governed by
the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a), the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)), and SSA
regulations (20 CFR Part 401).
4. SSA agrees to provide a means of automated verification that is designed (in conjunction
with DHS's automated system if necessary) to provide confirmation or tentative
nonconfirmation of U.S. citizens’ employment eligibility within 3 Federal Government work
days of the initial inquiry.
5. SSA agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating SSA
records as may be necessary) for employees who contest SSA tentative nonconfirmations
that is designed to provide final confirmation or nonconfirmation of U.S. citizens'
employment eligibility and accuracy of SSA records for both citizens and non-citizens within
10 Federal Government work days of the date of referral to SSA, unless SSA determines
that more than 10 days may be necessary. In such cases, SSA will provide additional
verification instructions.
B. RESPONSIBILITIES OF DHS
1. After SSA verifies the accuracy of SSA records for employees through E-Verify, DHS
agrees to provide the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent) access to
selected data from DHS's database to enable the Employer (through the E-Verify
Employer Agent) to conduct, to the extent authorized by this MOU:
• Automated verification checks on employees by electronic means, and
• Photo verification checks (when available) on employees.
2. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer and E-Verify Employer Agent appropriate
assistance with operational problems that may arise during the Employer’s participation
in E-Verify. DHS agrees to provide the E-Verify Employer Agent names, titles,
addresses, and telephone numbers of DHS representatives to be contacted during the
E-Verify process.
3. DHS agrees to make available to the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent),
at the E-Verify Web site and on the E-Verify Web browser, instructional materials on E-
Verify policies, procedures and requirements for both SSA and DHS, including
restrictions on the use of E-Verify. DHS agrees to provide training materials on E-Verify.
4. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent) a notice,
which indicates the Employer’s participation in the E-Verify program. DHS also agrees to

provide to the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent) anti-discrimination
notices issued by the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair
Employment Practices (OSC), Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice.
5. DHS agrees to issue the E-Verify Employer Agent a user identification number and
password that will be used exclusively by the E-Verify Employer Agent, on behalf of the
Employer, to verify information provided by employees with DHS’s databases.
6. DHS agrees to safeguard the information provided to DHS by the Employer (through the
E-Verify Employer Agent), and to limit access to such information to individuals
responsible for the verification of employees’ employment eligibility and for evaluation of
the E-Verify program, or to such other persons or entities as may be authorized by
applicable law. Information will be used only to verify the accuracy of Social Security
Numbers and employment eligibility, to enforce the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA)
and Federal criminal laws, and to administer Federal contracting requirements.
7. DHS agrees to provide a means of automated verification that is designed (in
conjunction with SSA verification procedures) to provide confirmation or tentative
nonconfirmation of employees' employment eligibility within 3 Federal Government
workdays of the initial inquiry.
8. DHS agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating DHS
records as may be necessary) for employees who contest DHS tentative
nonconfirmations and photo non-match tentative nonconfirmations that is designed to
provide final confirmation or nonconfirmation of the employees' employment eligibility
within 10 Federal Government work days of the date of referral to DHS, unless DHS
determines that more than 10 days may be necessary. In such cases, DHS will provide
additional verification instructions.
C. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EMPLOYER
1. The Employer agrees to display the notices supplied by DHS (through the E-Verify
Employer Agent) in a prominent place that is clearly visible to prospective employees
and all employees who are to be verified through the system.
2. The Employer agrees to provide to the SSA and DHS the names, titles, addresses, and
telephone numbers of the Employer representatives to be contacted regarding E-Verify.

of the E-Verify User Manual. The Employer will obtain the E-Verify User Manual from the
E-Verify Employer Agent.
4. The Employer agrees to comply with current Form I-9 procedures, with two exceptions:
!If an employee presents a "List B" identity document, the Employer agrees to only
accept "List B" documents that contain a photo. (List B documents identified in 8

C.F.R. § 274a.2(b)(1)(B)) can be presented during the Form I-9 process to establish
identity.) If an employee objects to the photo requirement for religious reasons, the
Employer should contact E-Verify at 1-888-464-4218.
!If an employee presents a DHS Form I-551 (Permanent Resident Card) or Form I-
766 (Employment Authorization Document) to complete the Form I-9, the Employer
agrees to make a photocopy of the document and to retain the photocopy with the
employee’s Form I-9. The photocopy must be of sufficient quality to allow for
verification of the photo and written information. The employer will use the
photocopy to verify the photo and to assist DHS with its review of photo non-matches
that are contested by employees. Note that employees retain the right to present
any List A, or List B and List C, documentation to complete the Form I-9. DHS may
in the future designate other documents that activate the photo screening tool.
5. The Employer understands that participation in E-Verify does not exempt the Employer
from the responsibility to complete, retain, and make available for inspection Forms I-9
that relate to its employees, or from other requirements of applicable regulations or laws,
including the obligation to comply with the antidiscrimination requirements of section
274B of the INA with respect to Form I-9 procedures, except for the following modified
requirements applicable by reason of the Employer's participation in E-Verify: (1) identity
documents must have photos, as described in paragraph 4 above; (2) a rebuttable
presumption is established that the Employer has not violated section 274A(a)(1)(A) of
the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) with respect to the hiring of any individual if it
obtains confirmation of the identity and employment eligibility of the individual in good
faith compliance with the terms and conditions of E-Verify; (3) the Employer must notify
DHS if it continues to employ any employee after receiving a final nonconfirmation, and
is subject to a civil money penalty between $550 and $1,100 for each failure to notify
DHS of continued employment following a final nonconfirmation; (4) the Employer is
subject to a rebuttable presumption that it has knowingly employed an unauthorized
alien in violation of section 274A(a)(1)(A) if the Employer continues to employ an
employee after receiving a final nonconfirmation; and (5) no person or entity participating
in E-Verify is civilly or criminally liable under any law for any action taken in good faith
based on information provided through the confirmation system. DHS reserves the right
to conduct Form I-9 and E-Verify system compliance inspections during the course of E-
Verify, as well as to conduct any other enforcement activity authorized by law.
6. The Employer agrees to initiate E-Verify verification procedures (through the E-Verify
Employer Agent), for new employees within 3 Employer business days after each
employee has been hired (but after both sections 1 and 2 of the Form I-9 have been
completed), and to complete as many (but only as many) steps of the E-Verify process
as are necessary according to the E-Verify User Manual, or in the case of Federal
contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause, the E-Verify User Manual for Federal
Contractors. The Employer is prohibited from initiating verification procedures before the
employee has been hired and the Form I-9 completed. If the automated system to be
queried is temporarily unavailable, the 3-day time period is extended until it is again
operational in order to accommodate the Employer's attempting, in good faith, to make

inquiries during the period of unavailability. Employers may initiate verification, through
the E-Verify Employer Agent, by notating the Form I-9 in circumstances where the
employee has applied for a Social Security Number (SSN) from the SSA and is waiting
to receive the SSN, provided that the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent)
performs an E-Verify employment verification query using the employee’s SSN as soon
as the SSN becomes available.
7. The Employer agrees not to use E-Verify procedures for pre-employment screening of
job applicants, in support of any unlawful employment practice, or for any other use not
authorized by this MOU. Employers must use E-Verify (through its E-Verify Employer
Agent) for all new employees, unless an Employer is a Federal contractor that qualifies
for the exceptions described in Article II.D.1.c. Except as provided in Article II.D, the
Employer will not verify selectively and will not verify employees hired before the
effective date of this MOU. The Employer understands that if the Employer uses the E-
Verify system for any purpose other than as authorized by this MOU, the Employer may
be subject to appropriate legal action and termination of its access to SSA and DHS
information pursuant to this MOU.
8. The Employer (through its E-Verify Employer Agent) agrees to follow appropriate
procedures (see Article III. below) regarding tentative nonconfirmations, including
notifying employees in private of the finding and providing them written notice of the
findings, providing written referral instructions to employees, allowing employees to
contest the finding, and not taking adverse action against employees if they choose to
contest the finding. Further, when employees contest a tentative nonconfirmation based
upon a photo non-match, the Employer is required to take affirmative steps (see Article
III.B. below) to contact DHS with information necessary to resolve the challenge.
9. The Employer agrees not to take any adverse action against an employee based upon
the employee's perceived employment eligibility status while SSA or DHS is processing
the verification request unless the Employer obtains knowledge (as defined in 8 C.F.R. §
274a.1(l)) that the employee is not work authorized. The Employer understands that an
initial inability of the SSA or DHS automated verification system to verify work
authorization, a tentative nonconfirmation, a case in continuance (indicating the need for
additional time for the government to resolve a case), or the finding of a photo non-
match, does not establish, and should not be interpreted as evidence, that the employee
is not work authorized. In any of the cases listed above, the employee must be provided
a full and fair opportunity to contest the finding, and if he or she does so, the employee
may not be terminated or suffer any adverse employment consequences based upon the
employee’s perceived employment eligibility status (including denying, reducing, or
extending work hours, delaying or preventing training, requiring an employee to work in
poorer conditions, refusing to assign the employee to a Federal contract or other
assignment, or otherwise subjecting an employee to any assumption that he or she is
unauthorized to work, or otherwise mistreating an employee) until and unless secondary
verification by SSA or DHS has been completed and a final nonconfirmation has been
issued. If the employee does not choose to contest a tentative nonconfirmation or a

photo non-match or if a secondary verification is completed and a final nonconfirmation
is issued, then the Employer can find the employee is not work authorized and terminate
the employee’s employment. Employers or employees with questions about a final
nonconfirmation may call E-Verify at 1-888-464-4218 or OSC at 1-800-255-8155 or 1-
800-237-2515 (TDD).
10. The Employer agrees to comply with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and section
274B of the INA, as applicable, by not discriminating unlawfully against any individual in
hiring, firing, or recruitment or referral practices because of his or her national origin or,
in the case of a protected individual as defined in section 274B(a)(3) of the INA, because
of his or her citizenship status. The Employer understands that such illegal practices
can include selective verification or use of E-Verify except as provided in part D below,
or discharging or refusing to hire employees because they appear or sound “foreign” or
have received tentative nonconfirmations. The Employer further understands that any
violation of the unfair immigration-related employment practices provisions in section
274B of the INA could subject the Employer to civil penalties, back pay awards, and
other sanctions, and violations of Title VII could subject the Employer to back pay
awards, compensatory and punitive damages. Violations of either section 274B of the
INA or Title VII may also lead to the termination of its participation in E-Verify. If the
Employer has any questions relating to the anti-discrimination provision, it should
contact OSC at 1-800-255-8155 or 1-800-237-2515 (TDD).
11. The Employer agrees to record the case verification number on the employee's Form I-9
or to print the screen containing the case verification number and attach it to the
employee's Form I-9.
12. The Employer agrees that it will use the information it receives from SSA or DHS
(through the E-Verify Employer Agent) pursuant to E-Verify and this MOU only to confirm
the employment eligibility of employees as authorized by this MOU. The Employer
agrees that it will safeguard this information, and means of access to it (such as PINS
and passwords) to ensure that it is not used for any other purpose and as necessary to
protect its confidentiality, including ensuring that it is not disseminated to any person
other than employees of the Employer who are authorized to perform the Employer's
responsibilities under this MOU, except for such dissemination as may be authorized in
advance by SSA or DHS for legitimate purposes.
13. The Employer acknowledges that the information which it receives through the E-Verify
Employer Agent from SSA is governed by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a(i)(1) and (3))
and the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)), and that any person who obtains this
information under false pretenses or uses it for any purpose other than as provided for in
this MOU may be subject to criminal penalties.
14. The Employer agrees to cooperate with DHS and SSA in their compliance monitoring
and evaluation of E-Verify, including by permitting DHS and SSA, upon reasonable
notice, to review Forms I-9 and other employment records and to interview it and its

employees regarding the Employer’s use of E-Verify, and to respond in a timely and
accurate manner to DHS requests for information relating to their participation in E-
Verify.
D. RESPONSIBILITIES OF FEDERAL CONTRACTORS WITH THE FAR E-VERIFY CLAUSE
1. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor subject to the employment
verification terms in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR it must verify the employment eligibility of
any existing employee assigned to the contract and all new hires, as discussed in the
Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors. Once an employee has been verified
through E-Verify by the Employer, the Employer may not reverify the employee through
E-Verify.
a. Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause agree to become familiar with
and comply with the most recent versions of the E-Verify User Manual for
Federal Contractors and the E-Verify Supplemental Guide for Federal
Contractors.
b. Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause agree to complete a tutorial for
Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause.
c. Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause not enrolled at the time of
contract award: An Employer that is not enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal
contractor at the time of a contract award must enroll as a Federal contractor with
the FAR E-Verify clause in E-Verify within 30 calendar days of contract award
and, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to use E-Verify to initiate verification of
employment eligibility of new hires of the Employer who are working in the United
States, whether or not assigned to the contract. Once the Employer begins
verifying new hires, such verification of new hires must be initiated within 3
business days after the date of hire. Once enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal
contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause, the Employer must initiate verification of
employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days from the time of
enrollment in the system and then selecting which employees will be verified in
E-Verify or within 30 days of an employee’s assignment to the contract,
whichever date is later.
d. Employer that are already enrolled in E-Verify at the time of a contract award but
are not enrolled in the system as a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify
clause: Employers enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor for 90 days or
more at the time of a contract award must use E-Verify to initiate verification of
employment eligibility for new hires of the Employer who are working in the
United States, whether or not assigned to the contract, within 3 business days
after the date of hire. Employers enrolled in E-Verify as other than a Federal
contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause, must update E-Verify to indicate that
they are a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause within 30 days after

assignment to the contract. If the Employer is enrolled in E-Verify for 90 calendar
days or less at the time of contract award, the Employer must, within 90 days of
enrollment, begin to use E-Verify to initiate verification of new hires of the
contractor who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the
contract. Such verification of new hires must be initiated within 3 business days
after the date of hire. An Employer enrolled as a Federal contractor with the FAR
E-Verify clause in E-Verify must initiate verification of each employee assigned to
the contract within 90 calendar days after date of contract award or within 30
days after assignment to the contract, whichever is later.
e. Institutions of higher education, State, local and tribal governments and sureties:
Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause that are institutions of higher
education (as defined at 20 U.S.C. 1001(a)), State or local governments,
governments of Federally recognized Indian tribes, or sureties performing under
a takeover agreement entered into with a Federal agency pursuant to a
performance bond may choose to only verify new and existing employees
assigned to the Federal contract. Such Federal contractors with the FAR E-
Verify clause may, however, elect to verify all new hires, and/or all existing
employees hired after November 6, 1986. The provisions of Article II, part D,
paragraphs 1.a and 1.b of this MOU providing timeframes for initiating
employment verification of employees assigned to a contract apply to such
institutions of higher education, State, local , tribal governments, and sureties.
f. Verification of all employees: Upon enrollment, Employers who are Federal
contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause may elect to verify employment
eligibility of all existing employees working in the United States who were hired
after November 6, 1986, instead of verifying only new employees and those
existing employees assigned to a covered Federal contract. After enrollment,
Employers must elect to do so only in the manner designated by DHS and initiate
E-Verify verification of all existing employees within 180 days after the election.
g. Form I-9 procedures for existing employees of Federal contractors with the FAR
E-Verify clause: Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause (through their
E-Verify Employer Agent) may choose to complete new Forms I-9 for all existing
employees other than those that are completely exempt from this process.
Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause may also update previously
completed Forms I-9 to initiate E-Verify verification of existing employees who
are not completely exempt as long as that Form I-9 is complete (including the
SSN), complies with Article II.C.4, the employee’s work authorization has not
expired, and the Employer has reviewed the information reflected in the Form I-9
either in person or in communications with the employee to ensure that the
employee’s stated basis in section 1 of the Form I-9 for work authorization has
not changed (including, but not limited to, a lawful permanent resident alien
having become a naturalized U.S. citizen). If the Employer is unable to
determine that the Form I-9 complies with Article II.C.4, if the employee’s basis

for work authorization as attested in section 1 has expired or changed, or if the
Form I-9 contains no SSN or is otherwise incomplete, the Employer shall
complete a new I-9 consistent with Article II.C.4, or update the previous I-9 to
provide the necessary information. If section 1 of the Form I-9 is otherwise valid
and up-to-date and the form otherwise complies with Article II.C.4, but reflects
documentation (such as a U.S. passport or Form I-551) that expired subsequent
to completion of the Form I-9, the Employer shall not require the production of
additional documentation, or use the photo screening tool described in Article
II.C.4, subject to any additional or superseding instructions that may be provided
on this subject in the Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors. Nothing in
this section shall be construed to require a second verification using E-Verify of
any assigned employee who has previously been verified as a newly hired
employee under this MOU, or to authorize verification of any existing employee
by any Employer that is not a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause.
2. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause,
its compliance with this MOU is a performance requirement under the terms of the
Federal contract or subcontract, and the Employer consents to the release of information
relating to compliance with its verification responsibilities under this MOU to contracting
officers or other officials authorized to review the Employer’s compliance with Federal
contracting requirements.
E. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE E-VERIFY EMPLOYER AGENT
1. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to provide to the SSA and DHS the names, titles,
addresses, and telephone numbers of the E-Verify Employer Agent representatives who
will be accessing information under E-Verify.
2. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to become familiar with and comply with the E-
Verify User Manual and provide a copy of the manual to the Employer so that the
Employer can become familiar with and comply with E-Verify policy and procedures.
3. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees that any E-Verify Employer Agent Representative
who will perform employment verification queries will complete the E-Verify Tutorial
before that individual initiates any queries.
a. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees that all E-Verify Employer Agent
representatives will take the refresher tutorials initiated by the E-Verify program
as a condition of continued use of E-Verify, including any tutorials for Federal
contractors if the Employer is a Federal contractor.
b. Failure to complete a refresher tutorial will prevent the E-Verify Employer Agent
and Employer from continued use of the program.
4. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to obtain the necessary equipment to utilize E-
Verify.

5. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to provide the Employer with the notices described
in Article II.B.4 above.
6. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to initiate E-Verify procedures on behalf of the
Employer in accordance with the E-Verify Manual and E-Verify Web-Based Tutorial.
The E-Verify Employer Agent will query the automated system using information
provided by the Employer and will immediately communicate the response back to the
Employer. If the automated system to be queried is temporarily unavailable, the 3-day
time period is extended until it is again operational in order to accommodate the E-Verify
Employer Agent’s attempting, in good faith, to make inquiries on behalf of the Employer
during the period of unavailability. In all cases, the E-Verify Employer Agent will use the
SSA verification procedures first, and will use DHS verification procedures only as
directed by the SSA verification response.
7. The E-Verify Employer Agent agrees to cooperate with DHS and SSA in their
compliance monitoring and evaluation of E-Verify, including by permitting DHS and SSA,
upon reasonable notice, to review Forms I-9 and other employment records and to
interview it and its employees regarding the use of E-Verify, and to respond in a timely
and accurate manner to DHS requests for information relating to their participation in E-
Verify.
ARTICLE III
REFERRAL OF INDIVIDUALS TO SSA AND DHS
A. REFERRAL TO SSA
1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by SSA, the Employer must
print the tentative nonconfirmation notice as directed by the automated system and
provide it to the employee so that the employee may determine whether he or she will
contest the tentative nonconfirmation.
2. The Employer will refer employees to SSA field offices only as directed by the
automated system based on a tentative nonconfirmation, and only after the Employer
records the case verification number, reviews the input to detect any transaction errors,
and determines that the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation. The Employer
(through the E-Verify Employer Agent), will transmit the Social Security Number to SSA
for verification again if this review indicates a need to do so. The Employer will
determine whether the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as
possible after the Employer receives it.
3. If the employee contests an SSA tentative nonconfirmation, the Employer will provide
the employee with a system-generated referral letter and instruct the employee to visit
an SSA office within 8 Federal Government work days. SSA will electronically transmit
the result of the referral to the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer Agent) within 10
Federal Government work days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10

days is necessary. The Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case
updates.
4. The Employer agrees not to ask the employee to obtain a printout from the Social
Security Number database (the Numident) or other written verification of the Social
Security Number from the SSA.
B. REFERRAL TO DHS
1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer must
print the tentative nonconfirmation notice as directed by the automated system and
provide it to the employee so that the employee may determine whether he or she will
contest the tentative nonconfirmation.
2. If the Employer finds a photo non-match for an employee who provides a document for
which the automated system has transmitted a photo, the employer must print the photo
non-match tentative nonconfirmation notice as directed by the automated system and
provide it to the employee so that the employee may determine whether he or she will
contest the finding.
3. The Employer agrees to refer individuals to DHS only when the employee chooses to
contest a tentative nonconfirmation received from DHS automated verification process or
when the Employer issues a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo non-match.
The Employer will determine whether the employee contests the tentative
nonconfirmation as soon as possible after the Employer receives it.
4. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer will
provide the employee with a referral letter and instruct the employee to contact DHS
through its toll-free hotline (as found on the referral letter) within 8 Federal Government
work days.
5. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo non-match, the
Employer will provide the employee with a referral letter to DHS. DHS will electronically
transmit the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work
days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. The
Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case updates.
6. The Employer agrees that if an employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based
upon a photo non-match, the Employer (or the E-Verify Employer Agent) will send a
copy of the employee’s Form I-551 or Form I-766 to DHS for review by:
!Scanning and uploading the document, or
!Sending a photocopy of the document by and express mail account (pain for
at employer expense).

with the image generated in E-Verify, the Employer (through the E-Verify Employer
Agent) must forward the employee’s documentation to DHS using one of the means
described in the preceding paragraph, and allow DHS to resolve the case.
ARTICLE IV
SERVICE PROVISIONS
The SSA and DHS will not charge the Employer or the E-Verify Employer Agent for verification
services performed under this MOU. DHS is not responsible for providing the equipment needed
to make inquiries. A personal computer with Internet access is needed to access the E-Verify
System.
ARTICLE V
PARTIES
A. This MOU is effective upon the signature of all parties, and shall continue in effect for as
long as the SSA and DHS conduct the E-Verify program unless modified in writing by the
mutual consent of all parties, or terminated by any party upon 30 days prior written notice to
the others. Any and all system enhancements to the E-Verify program by DHS or SSA,
including but not limited to the E-Verify checking against additional data sources and
instituting new verification procedures, will be covered under this MOU and will not cause
the need for a supplemental MOU that outlines these changes. DHS agrees to train
employers on all changes made to E-Verify through the use of mandatory refresher tutorials
and updates to the E-Verify User Manual, the E-Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors,
or the E-Verify Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors. Even without changes to E-
Verify, DHS reserves the right to require employers to take mandatory refresher tutorials.
An Employer that is a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause may terminate this
MOU when the Federal contract that requires its participation in E-Verify is terminated or
completed. In such a circumstance, the Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause
must provide written notice to DHS. If an Employer that is a Federal contractor with the FAR
E-Verify clause fails to provide such notice, that Employer will remain a participant in the E-
Verify program, will remain bound by the terms of this MOU that apply to participants that
are not Federal contractors with the FAR E-Verify clause, and will be required to use the E-
Verify procedures to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired employees.
B. Notwithstanding Article V, part A of this MOU, DHS may terminate access to E-Verify if it is
deemed necessary because of the requirements of law or policy, or upon a determination by
SSA or DHS that there has been a breach of system integrity or security by the E-Verify
Employer Agent or the Employer, or a failure on the part of either to comply with established
procedures or legal requirements. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal
contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause, termination of this MOU by any party for any reason
may negatively affect the Employer’s performance of its contractual responsibilities.

C. Some or all SSA and DHS responsibilities under this MOU may be performed by
contractor(s), and SSA and DHS may adjust verification responsibilities between each other
as they may determine necessary. By separate agreement with DHS, SSA has agreed to
perform its responsibilities as described in this MOU.
D. Nothing in this MOU is intended, or should be construed, to create any right or benefit,
substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by any third party against the United States, its
agencies, officers, or employees, or against the E-Verify Employer Agent, the Employer, or
their agents, officers, or employees.
E. Each party shall be solely responsible for defending any claim or action against it arising out
of or related to E-Verify or this MOU, whether civil or criminal, and for any liability
wherefrom, including (but not limited to) any dispute between the E-Verify Employer Agent
or the Employer and any other person or entity regarding the applicability of Section 403(d)
of IIRIRA to any action taken or allegedly taken by the E-Verify Employer Agent or the
Employer.
F. Participation in E-Verify is not confidential information and may be disclosed as authorized
or required by law and DHS or SSA policy, including but not limited to, Congressional
oversight, E-Verify publicity and media inquiries, determinations of compliance with Federal
contractual requirements, and responses to inquiries under the Freedom of Information Act
(FOIA).
G. The foregoing constitutes the full agreement on this subject between DHS, the Employer
and the E-Verify Employer Agent.
