DURATION
July 2020 - Present

SITUATION

Covering over 600 square miles and with a population of almost 23,000 residents, the
County is located on the southern border of Kansas, The major disaster declaration opened
reimbursement possibilities for all eligible Public Assistance applicants, including cities and

counties across the country. The incident period was back-dated to January 20, 2020 and
continues.

TASK

The recovery process is complex and often overwhelming, so we work with our clients to
guide them through the FEMA requirements and ensure they receive the maximum eligible
recovery of costs. iPararnetrics and our partner Metric, were retained by the County to support
grant management and writing for COVID-19-related reimbursements. We provide community
outreach, cost recovery, grants management, program implementation support, and technical
assistance and training.

ACTION

The iParametrics team is providing the County with grant management and program design and
implementation of four COVID-19 relief programs and as technical consultant for FEMA PA cost
recovery. Programs implemented included rent, mortgage and utilities assistance for households,
recovery grants for small businesses and microenterprises, reimbursement of COVID-19

related expenses for government entities and non-profits, and grants for community-supported
COVID-19 response and recovery initiatives.

RESULT
We managed a grant program of approximately $7 million in funding. We implemented

four programs that served 467 households (84% LM), 65 businesess, and 39 community
organizations.

If the Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents and fails
within a ten-day period after receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of such
default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies the Owner
may have, correct such deficiencies. In such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued deducting from
payments then or thereafter due the Contractor the reasonable cost of correcting such deficiencies, including

§ 3.2.2 Because the Contract Documents are complementary, the Contractor shall, before starting each portion of the
Work, carefully study and compare the various Contract Documents relative to that portion of the Work, as well as
the information furnished by the Owner pursuant to Section 2.2.3, shall take field measurements of any existing
conditions related to that portion of the Work, and shall observe any conditions at the site affecting it. These
obligations are for the purpose of facilitating coordination and construction by the Contractor and are not for the
purpose of discovering errors, omissions, or inconsistencies in the Contract Documents; however, the Contractor
shall promptly report to the Architect any errors, inconsistencies or omissions discovered by or made known to the
Contractor as a request for information in such form as the Architect may require. It is recognized that the
Contractor’s review is made in the Contractor’s capacity as a contractor and not as a licensed design professional,
unless otherwise specifically provided in the Contract Documents.

§ 3.2.3 The Contractor is not required to ascertain that the Contract Documents are in accordance with applicable
laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities, but the Contractor
shall promptly report to the Architect any nonconformity discovered by or made known to the Contractor as a
request for information in such form as the Architect may require.

§ 3.2.4 If the Contractor believes that additional cost or time is involved because of clarifications or instructions the
Architect issues in response to the Contractor’s notices or requests for information pursuant to Sections 3.2.2 or
3.2.3, the Contractor shall make Claims as provided in Article 15. If the Contractor fails to perform the obligations
of Sections 3.2.2 or 3.2.3, the Contractor shall pay such costs and damages to the Owner as would have been
avoided if the Contractor had performed such obligations. If the Contractor performs those obligations, the
Contractor shall not be liable to the Owner or Architect for damages resulting from errors, inconsistencies or
omissions in the Contract Documents, for differences between field measurements or conditions and the Contract
Documents, or for nonconformities of the Contract Documents to applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules
and regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities.

§ 3.3 SUPERVISION AND CONSTRUCTION PROCEDURES

§ 3.3.1 The Contractor shall supervise and direct the Work, using the Contractor’s best skill and attention. The
Contractor shall be solely responsible for, and have control over, construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences and procedures and for coordinating all portions of the Work under the Contract, unless the Contract
Documents give other specific instructions concerning these matters. If the Contract Documents give specific
instructions concerning construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, the Contractor shall
evaluate the jobsite safety thereof and, except as stated below, shall be fully and solely responsible for the jobsite
safety of such means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. If the Contractor determines that such means,
methods, techniques, sequences or procedures may not be safe, the Contractor shall give timely written notice to the
Owner and Architect and shall not proceed with that portion of the Work without further written instructions from
the Architect.

§ 3.3.2 The Contractor shall be responsible to the Owner for acts and omissions of the Contractor’s employees,
Subcontractors and their agents and employees, and other persons or entities performing portions of the Work for, or
on behalf of, the Contractor or any of its Subcontractors.

§ 3.3.3 The Contractor shall be responsible for inspection of portions of Work already performed to determine that
such portions are in proper condition to receive subsequent Work.

skilled in tasks assigned to them.

§ 3.5 WARRANTY

The Contractor warrants to the Owner and Architect that materials and equipment furnished under the Contract will
be of good quality and new unless the Contract Documents require or permit otherwise. The Contractor further
warrants that the Work will conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents and will be free from defects,
except for those inherent in the quality of the Work the Contract Documents require or permit. Work, materials, or
equipment not conforming to these requirements may be considered defective. The Contractor’s warranty excludes
remedy for damage or defect caused by abuse, alterations to the Work not executed by the Contractor, improper or
insufficient maintenance, improper operation, or normal wear and tear and normal usage. If required by the
Architect, the Contractor shall furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of materials and equipment.

§ 3.6 TAXES

The Contractor shall pay sales, consumer, use and similar taxes for the Work provided by the Contractor that are
legally enacted when bids are received or negotiations concluded, whether or not yet effective or merely scheduled
to go into effect.

§ 3.7 PERMITS, FEES, NOTICES AND COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

§ 3.7.1 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall secure and pay for the building

rules and regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities applicable to performance of the Work.

rules and regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities, the Contractor shall assume appropriate responsibility
for such Work and shall bear the costs attributable to correction.

§ 3.7.4 Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If the Contractor encounters conditions at the site that are (1)
subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions that differ materially from those indicated in the Contract
Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, that differ materially from those ordinarily
found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the
Contract Documents, the Contractor shall promptly provide notice to the Owner and the Architect before conditions
are disturbed and in no event later than 21 days after first observance of the conditions. The Architect will promptly
investigate such conditions and, if the Architect determines that they differ materially and cause an increase or
decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, will recommend an
equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Architect determines that the conditions
at the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the
terms of the Contract is justified, the Architect shall promptly notify the Owner and Contractor in writing, stating the
reasons. If either party disputes the Architect’s determination or recommendation, that party may proceed as
provided in Article 15.

§ 3.7.5 If, in the course of the Work, the Contractor encounters human remains or recognizes the existence of burial
markers, archaeological sites or wetlands not indicated in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall immediately
suspend any operations that would affect them and shall notify the Owner and Architect. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Owner shall promptly take any action necessary to obtain governmental authorization required to resume
the operations. The Contractor shall continue to suspend such operations until otherwise instructed by the Owner but
shall continue with all other operations that do not affect those remains or features. Requests for adjustments in the
Contract Sum and Contract Time arising from the existence of such remains or features may be made as provided in
Article 15.
