This is EXHIBIT A, consisting of 14 pages, referred to in and part of the Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services dated , ineer's Services Article 1 of the Agreement is supplemented to include the following agreement of the parties. Engineer shall provide Basic and Additional Services as set forth below. PART 1— BASIC SERVICES A 1.01 Study and Report Phase A. Engineer shall; Task 1— Hydraulic Model Training The Owner has a WaterCAD hydraulic model of their current water distribution system. The model was built and has been periodically updated by the Owner. The Engineer will provide training to the Owner's staff on the use and maintenance of the hydraulic model. The purpose of training will be to inform and train the Owner's staff in model structure, construction, scenario management, use of the model, and database interface. Training will serve as an introduction to the hydraulic modeling software for new users, as well as focus on expanding the modelers' breadth and depth of knowledge related to the Owner's model and modeling best practices. The Engineer is not responsible for reviewing the model and cannot ensure the accuracy for model results. Task 1.1 — Coordination Meetings and Training Sessions. Engineer will conduct two coordination teleconferences (up to 2 hours each) with the Owner to review model applicability, discuss training topics, and review draft training materials. Engineer will review the model to ensure selected scenarios are running properly, prepare for, and lead up to two 4-hour training sessions with the Owner's staff. Training sessions shall be conducted in person in one trip at the Owner's office in South Bend, Indiana. The first session of the training workshop will cover the basic structure of the model, scenarios, simulations, and output at an entry level of detail. The second session of the training workshop will provide detailed hydraulic model training on modeling analysis, model management concepts, model maintenance and update procedures. Specific topics and exercises may include creating new scenarios, using model controls, adding or removing customer connections, editing the pipe network, modifying demands, simulation types, and viewing and interpreting results. Task 1.2 — Training Manual. Engineer will develop a Model Training Manual that will be a compilation of the materials presented in the training sessions. This manual will include the fictional operation of the hydraulic modeling software package and the user procedures needed to perform engineering functions, i.e. a user-friendly summary version of a user's manual that a beginner familiar with the software package can use. The training manual will be provided to the Owner in PDF format.
