July 11, 2023 <br />Kieran Fahey, <br />Director, Long-Term Control Plan <br />Department of Public Works <br />City of South Bend <br />Re: City of South Bend, Indiana Request for Qualifications from Providers of a Guaranteed Savings Contract. <br />Kieran and South Bend Team: <br />Please see Bowen’s attached qualifications to successfully complete improvements to the City of South Bend’s <br />WWTP/CSO 045 EQ Basin and Clarifier Upgrade Projects. <br />We are committed to being your most Resourceful and Responsive Provider while delivering the Results you <br />and your team expect. Bowen is uniquely qualified to support you with this project: <br />Because Bowen’s local Northern Indiana team is on the project, your project will benefit from existing <br />strong relationships, active jobsite presence, and a dedicated local team with backup from our <br />Indianapolis Headquarters Office. <br /> <br />Because Bowen has successfully completed past projects at the City of South Bend WWTP, <br />your projects will benefit from lessons learned and better understanding of the existing facility. This <br />experience will allow our team to successfully meet your goal of constructing a new CSO EQ <br />Basin and Clarifier Upgrades supporting your wastewater system by December 2025 (See <br />Preliminary Schedule in the Technical Approach Section). <br />Because Bowen has successful experience partnering with American Structurepoint and <br />Arcadis, you will get optimized collaboration and decision making for the best project outcomes and <br />long-term operability. <br />Because we are the #1 Water and Wastewater GSC Provider in Indiana, your team will get <br />a nationally recognized and resourced Provider partner that has implemented a successful GSC with <br />the City of South Bend and American Structurepoint (Pinhook WTP Upgrade GSC). <br />The Bowen team looks forward to the opportunity to deliver another excellent construction experience for the City <br />of South Bend. Through our collaborative GSC process, you can be assured that your Combined Sewer Overflow <br />045 EQ Basin and Clarifier Upgrade Projects will be successful and tailored to the specific needs of you and your <br />capable team. <br />Respectfully, <br />John Dettman, Vice President <br />Project Executive Sponsor <br />317.409.4840 <br />200 Billings Street, Valparaiso, IN 46383 www.bowensqp.com <br />Steve Nutt, Vice President <br />Performance Contracting <br />317.519.1716
