KENT EATONProject Supervisor

SCOTT COTTERProject Supervisor

Key Projects/Role

RS-41006. US 40 Resurface from Brazil to Reelsville. Clay and Putnam Counties. INDOT requested to have Kent assist on this late season resurfacing contract. The project is patching and resurfacing approx. 5 miles of US 40 from the East side of Brazil to near Reelsville. Kent is working on this job while concurrently completing the Final Construction Record for B-36694. This dual responsibility is a direct cost saving to INDOT.

B-36694 SR 46 Bridge Replacement and Overlay, Clay County. – The District requested to have Kent take over this project from the original Project Supervisor. He seamlessly took over in July 2019 with an Inspector from another firm working under him. This project is replacing a bridge on SR 46 over Killion Ditch east of SR 59 and overlaying another bridge on SR 46 to the west of SR 59.

R-30907 SR 75 Pavement Replacement and Utility Relocation, Advance, IN. – Kent led field inspection activities for this project through end of June 2019. During his time on this job, he shared his experience and knowledge of construction with younger inspection staff. Knowing this is how Kent approaches his job, gave INDOT the confidence to reassign Kent to B-36694 and still be assured the SR 75 project in Advance would continue to successful completion.

Key Projects/Role

B-39578 I-65 Bridge Removals and Overlays, Clinton and Tippecanoe Counties, IN. – Scott is the Project Supervisor for this $8 million project at three different locations. Near the SR 28 exit in Clinton County, NB and SB I-65 bridges over an abandoned rail line are being completely removed, filled in, and new mainline pavement placed. To the south of SR 28 bridges over Little Potato Creek are being overlaid with special Latex Modified Concrete that gains strength rapidly to reopen to traffic sooner. Lastly, bridges over Lauramie Creek in Tippecanoe County are receiving more extensive rehabilitation, including new approach slabs, conversion to semi integral end bents, removal of existing overlay, hydrodemo and deck patching, new latex modified overlay, and polymeric overlay. To accommodate traffic and phased construction, a temporary prefabricated bridge and roadway are being constructed in the median.

INDOT Greenfield District, ID/IQ Contracts. – Scott was a Project Manager for INDOT overseeing the ID/IQ contracts in Greenfield District. These contracts serve as a bridge between Maintenance and Construction. The contractors perform bridge and roadway work that is beyond the capacity of normal INDOT Maintenance forces and prolongs the service life of the assets until construction contracts are developed, bid, and executed for more robust rehabilitation or replacement is performed.

Project UnderstandingOn-call construction inspection contracts continue to be INDOT's preference for supplementing their in-house staff to fully staff and successfully deliver projects. Parsons proven approach has been developed from our strong understanding of INDOT's use and expectations for On-Call Construction Inspection services.

Since March of this year, our world has experience unprecedented challenges with the COVID-19 pandemic. Indiana has responded well on all fronts to protect its citizens and keep our economy on track. INDOT's mission was deemed essential from the onset, which shows the commitment Indiana has to continuing the construction, upkeep and operation of a world-class transportation system.

We believe that what we do is vitally important as we are the quality control for the construction of Indiana's transportation system. Our experience and attention to even the smallest detail help deliver successful quality projects that will last. We apply a firm but fair approach with the contractors we are charged with overseeing to ensure their conformance with the contract documents.

INDOT On-Call UnderstandingThrough our successful delivery of six on-call contracts with the Crawfordsville District, we have developed a full understanding of the needs for Construction Inspection Services and the expectations for delivering them.

ADAPTING TO DELIVER

In the Spring of 2020, the Parsons team was supplying inspection staff on RS-40108 and B-41004 for an INDOT PE/S who resigned mid-June. The Area Engineer asked Bob Fisher to assume the role of PE/S on both. Bob took over the administrative duties and Inspectors Eric Fisher and Thomas Padgett tag-teamed the inspection of work on both jobs. This team effort and willingness to adapt made the transition seamless and have delivered quality projects for INDOT.

Parsons' proven approach to delivering on-call construction inspection services has been developed and honed through five contracts with the Crawfordsville District. RFPs 131004b, 141004e, 171104c, 180901d, 190403b, 190903e, and 200407e.

Our 5 Part Approach is proven to deliver highly cost-effective, quality construction inspection services.

3 FLEXIBILITY

Highway construction is a dynamic business. Countless factors can require changes to the best laid plans. Parsons is ultimately flexible to adapt and respond as the District needs to deliver successful projects at the best value possible.

4 AVAILABILITY

As shown in the table on Page 4, we have a variety of staff with availability at the end of this construction season. We also continue to look for and hire quality construction professionals that can provide the District with additional staffing options.

5 LOGISTICS

The required map on Page 3 shows how our staff has unmatched district-wide coverage. We feel this has been a difference maker for us by being able to staff projects anywhere in the District. This gives you more options and creates true costs savings on travel and provides better service being close to our jobs.
