and for retroactively adjusting the previous year's ICR cost to reflect the actual rate. The ICR schedule will
be sent to Email: ConsultantRates@wsdot.wa.gov.
Failure to supply this information by either the prime CONSULTANT or any of their A&E sub-consultants I
shall cause the AGENCY to withhold payment of the billed ICR costs until such time as the required
information is received and an overhead rate for billing purposes is approved.

rate, if they so desire.

4. Fixed Fee: The Fixed Fee, which represents the CONSULTANT'S profit, is shown in attached Exhibits "D"
and "E" of this AGREEMENT. This fee is based on the Scope of Work defined in this AGREEMENT and
the estimated person-hours required to perform the stated Scope of Work. In the event the CONSULTANT
enters into a supplemental AGREEMENT for additional work, the supplemental AGREEMENT may
include provisions for the added costs and an appropriate additional fee. The Fixed Fee will be prorated
and paid monthly in proportion to the percentage of work completed by the CONSULTANT and reported
in the Monthly Progress Reports accompanying the billings. Any portion of the Fixed Fee earned but not
previously paid in the progress payments will be covered in the final payment, subject to the provisions of
Section IX entitled "Termination of Agreement."
5. Management Reserve Fund (MRF): The AGENCY may desire to establish MRF to provide the Agreement
Administrator with the flexibility to authorize additional funds to the AGREEMENT for allowable
unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the CONSULTANT for additional work beyond that already defined in
this AGREEMENT. Such authorization(s) shall be in writing and shall not exceed the lesser of$100,000 or
10% of the Total Amount Authorized as shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. The amount included
for the MRF is shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. This fund may not be replenished. Any
changes requiring additional costs in excess of the MRF shall be made in accordance with Section XIII,
"Extra Work."
6. Maximum Total Amount Payable: The Maximum Total Amount Payable by the AGENCY to the
CONSULTANT under this AGREEMENT shall not exceed the amount shown in the heading of this
AGREEMENT. The Maximum Total Amount Payable is comprised of the Total Amount Authorized, and
the MRF. The Maximum Total Amount Payable does not include payment for Extra Work as stipulated in
Section XIII, "Extra Work."No minimum amount payable is guaranteed under this AGREEMENT.
B. Monthly Progress Payments: The CONSULTANT may submit billings to the AGENCY for reimbursement of
Actual Costs plus the ICR and calculated fee on a monthly basis during the progress of the work. Such billings
shall be in a format approved by the AGENCY and accompanied by the monthly progress reports required under
Section III, "General Requirements" of this AGREEMENT. The billings will be supported by an itemized
listing for each item including Direct(RAW) Labor, Direct Non-Salary, and allowable ICR Costs to which will
be added the prorated Fixed Fee. To provide a means of verifying the billed Direct(RAW) Labor costs for
CONSULTANT employees,the AGENCY may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of
recording the names, titles, Direct(RAW) Labor rates, and present duties of those employees performing work
on the PROJECT at the time of the interview.
C. Final Payment: Final Payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned will be made
promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work under this AGREEMENT,
contingent, if applicable, upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports, electronic data and other related
documents which are required to be furnished under this AGREEMENT. Acceptance of such Final Payment by
the CONSULTANT shall constitute a release of all claims for payment, which the CONSULTANT may have
against the AGENCY unless such claims are specifically reserved in writing and transmitted to the AGENCY by
the CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said Final Payment shall not, however, be a bar to any claims that
the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to any remedies the AGENCY may pursue with respect
to such claims.
The payment of any billing will not constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and at the time
of final audit; all required adjustments will be made and reflected in a final payment. In the event that such
final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT,the CONSULTANT will refund such overpayment to
the AGENCY within thirty (30) calendar days of notice of the overpayment. Such refund shall not constitute
a waiver by the CONSULTANT for any claims relating to the validity of a finding by the AGENCY of
overpayment. The CONSULTANT has twenty (20)working days after receipt of the final POST AUDIT to
begin the appeal process to the AGENCY for audit findings.

or directives issued pursuant thereto.
IX. Termination of Agreement
The right is reserved by the AGENCY to terminate this AGREEMENT at any time with or without cause upon ten
(10) days written notice to the CONSULTANT.
In the event this AGREEMENT is terminated by the AGENCY, other than for default on the part of the
CONSULTANT, a final payment shall be made to the CONSULTANT for actual hours charged and any appropriate
fixed fee percentage at the time of termination of this AGREEMENT, plus any direct non-salary costs incurred up to
the time of termination of this AGREEMENT.
No payment shall be made for any SERVICES completed after ten (10) days following receipt by the
CONSULTANT of the notice to terminate. If the accumulated payment made to the CONSULTANT prior to Notice
of Termination exceeds the total amount that would be due when computed as set forth in paragraph two (2) of this
section, then no final payment shall be due and the CONSULTANT shall immediately reimburse the AGENCY for
any excess paid.
If the services of the CONSULTANT are terminated by the AGENCY for default on the part of the CONSULTANT,
the above formula for payment shall not apply.

Agreement Number: 2143
Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Page 7 of 14
Revised 02/01/2021
11
date of termination, whether that SERVICE is in a form or a type which is usable to the AGENCY at the time of
termination,the cost to the AGENCY of employing another firm to complete the SERVICES required and the
time which may be required to do so, and other factors which affect the value to the AGENCY of the SERVICES
performed at the time of termination. Under no circumstances shall payment made under this subsection exceed the
amount, which would have been made using the formula set forth in paragraph two (2) of this section.
If it is determined for any reason that the CONSULTANT was not in default or that the CONSULTANT's failure to
perform is without the CONSULTANT's or its employee's fault or negligence,the termination shall be deemed to
be a termination for the convenience of the AGENCY. In such an event,the CONSULTANT would be reimbursed
for actual costs and appropriate fixed fee percentage in accordance with the termination for other than default
clauses listed previously.
The CONSULTANT shall, within 15 days, notify the AGENCY in writing, in the event of the death of any member,
partner, or officer of the CONSULTANT or the death or change of any of the CONSULTANT's supervisory and/or
other key personnel assigned to the project or disaffiliation of any principally involved CONSULTANT employee.
The CONSULTANT shall also notify the AGENCY, in writing, in the event of the sale or transfer of 50% or
more of the beneficial ownership of the CONSULTANT within 15 days of such sale or transfer occurring. The
CONSULTANT shall continue to be obligated to complete the SERVICES under the terms of this AGREEMENT
unless the AGENCY chooses to terminate this AGREEMENT for convenience or chooses to renegotiate any term(s)
of this AGREEMENT. If termination for convenience occurs,final payment will be made to the CONSULTANT
as set forth in the second and third paragraphs of this section.
Payment for any part of the SERVICES by the AGENCY shall not constitute a waiver by the AGENCY of
any remedies of any type it may have against the CONSULTANT for any breach of this AGREEMENT by the
CONSULTANT, or for failure of the CONSULTANT to perform SERVICES required of it by the AGENCY.
Forbearance of any rights under the AGREEMENT will not constitute waiver of entitlement to exercise those rights
with respect to any future act or omission by the CONSULTANT.
X. Changes of Work
The CONSULTANT shall make such changes and revisions in the completed work of this AGREEMENT as
necessary to correct errors appearing therein, without additional compensation thereof. Should the AGENCY find
it desirable for its own purposes to have previously satisfactorily completed SERVICES or parts thereof changed or
revised, the CONSULTANT shall make such revisions as directed by the AGENCY. This work shall be considered
as Extra Work and will be paid for as herein provided under section XIII"Extra Work."
XI. Disputes
Any disputed issue not resolved pursuant to the terms of this AGREEMENT shall be submitted in writing within
10 days to the Director of Public Works or AGENCY Engineer, whose decision in the matter shall be final and
binding on the parties of this AGREEMENT; provided however, that if an action is brought challenging the
Director of Public Works or AGENCY Engineer's decision, that decision shall be subject to judicial review. If the
parties to this AGREEMENT mutually agree, disputes concerning alleged design errors will be conducted under
the procedures found in Exhibit"J". In the event that either party deem it necessary to institute legal action or
proceeding to enforce any right or obligation under this AGREEMENT, this action shall be initiated in the Superior

Safe Harbor Indirect Cost Rate
Dear Mr.Velazquez:
Washington State has received approval from our local Federal Highway Administration(FHWA)
Division to continue administering the"safe harbor" indirect cost rate program on engineering and
design related service contracts, as well as for Local Public Agency projects.
We have completed our risk assessment for OverSite,LLC. We conducted our assessment based on the
documentation provided by the firm. The reviewed data included, but was not limited to, a description
of the company,basis of accounting, accounting system and the basis of indirect costs. Based on our
review,your firm is eligible to use the Safe Harbor rate. You have opted to use the Safe Harbor rate,
rather than provide a FAR-compliant rate at this time.
We are issuing the Safe Harbor Indirect Cost Rate of 110%of direct labor with a field rate,where
applicable, of 80%of direct labor for OverSite. The Safe Harbor rate is effective on February 9, 2022.
OverSite has agreed to improve Internal Controls and timekeeping processes to be able to develop an
Indirect Cost Rate Schedule in the future in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR),
Subpart 31. The WSDOT Internal Audit Office has provided guidance and information related to FARs
and the AASHTO Audit Guide. You may use the Safe Harbor Rate of 110%, or 80%for field office
situations, for agreements entered prior to February 9, 2025. For agreements entered after this date,
please contact the WSDOT Consultant Services Office(CSO)or our office for guidance.
The Safe Harbor Rate will not be subject to audit. Please coordinate with CSO or your Local Programs
contact if you have questions about when to apply the Safe Harbor rate to your agreement.
If you have any questions,please contact Steve McKerney or me at(360)705-7003.

Exhibit I
Alleged Consultant Design Error Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to establish a procedure to determine if a consultant's alleged design error is of a
nature that exceeds the accepted standard of care. In addition, it will establish a uniform method for the resolution
and/or cost recovery procedures in those instances where the agency believes it has suffered some material damage
due to the alleged error by the consultant.
Step 1 Potential Consultant Design Error(s) is Identified by Agency's Project Manager
At the first indication of potential consultant design error(s), the first step in the process is for the Agency's
project manager to notify the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer regarding the potential design
error(s). For federally funded projects, the Region Local Programs Engineer should be informed and
involved in these procedures. (Note: The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer may appoint an
agency staff person other than the project manager, who has not been as directly involved in the project,
to be responsible for the remaining steps in these procedures.)
Step 2 Project Manager Documents the Alleged Consultant Design Error(s)
After discussion of the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged error(s), and with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer's concurrence, the project manager obtains more detailed
documentation than is normally required on the project. Examples include: all decisions and descriptions
of work; photographs, records of labor, materials and equipment.
Step 3 Contact the Consultant Regarding the Alleged Design Error(s)
If it is determined that there is a need to proceed further, the next step in the process is for the project
manager to contact the consultant regarding the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged
error(s). The project manager and other appropriate agency staff should represent the agency and the
consultant should be represented by their project manager and any personnel (including sub-consultants)
deemed appropriate for the alleged design error(s) issue.
Step 4 Attempt to Resolve Alleged Design Error with Consultant
After the meeting(s) with the consultant have been completed regarding the consultant's alleged design
error(s), there are three possible scenarios:
• It is determined via mutual agreement that there is not a consultant design error(s). If this is the case,
then the process will not proceed beyond this point.
• It is determined via mutual agreement that a consultant design error(s) occurred. If this is the case,
then the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, or their representatives, negotiate a settlement
with the consultant. The settlement would be paid to the agency or the amount would be reduced from
the consultant's agreement with the agency for the services on the project in which the design error
took place. The agency is to provide LP, through the Region Local Programs Engineer, a summary
of the settlement for review and to make adjustments, if any, as to how the settlement affects federal
reimbursements. No further action is required.
• There is not a mutual agreement regarding the alleged consultant design error(s). The consultant may
request that the alleged design error(s) issue be forwarded to the Director of Public Works or Agency
Engineer for review. If the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, after review with their legal
counsel, is not able to reach mutual agreement with the consultant, proceed to Step 5.

Exhibit I-Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Revised 02/01/2021 Page 1 of 2
78
Step 5 Forward Documents to Local Programs
For federally funded projects all available information, including costs, should be forwarded through the
Region Local Programs Engineer to LP for their review and consultation with the FHWA. LP will meet
with representatives of the agency and the consultant to review the alleged design error(s), and attempt
to find a resolution to the issue. If necessary, LP will request assistance from the Attorney General's Office
for legal interpretation. LP will also identify how the alleged error(s) affects eligibility of project costs
for federal reimbursement.
• If mutual agreement is reached,the agency and consultant adjust the scope of work and costs
to reflect the agreed upon resolution. LP, in consultation with FHWA, will identify the amount
of federal participation in the agreed upon resolution of the issue.
• If mutual agreement is not reached,the agency and consultant may seek settlement by arbitration
or by litigation.

Exhibit J
Consultant Claim Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to describe a procedure regarding claim(s) on a consultant agreement. The following
procedures should only be utilized on consultant claims greater than $1,000. If the consultant's claim(s) are a total
of$1,000 or less, it would not be cost effective to proceed through the outlined steps. It is suggested that the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer negotiate a fair and reasonable price for the consultant's claim(s)
that total $1,000 or less.
This exhibit will outline the procedures to be followed by the consultant and the agency to consider a potential
claim by the consultant.
Step 1 Consultant Files a Claim with the Agency Project Manager
If the consultant determines that they were requested to perform additional services that were outside
of the agreement's scope of work, they may be entitled to a claim. The first step that must be completed
is the request for consideration of the claim to the Agency's project manager.
The consultant's claim must outline the following:
• Summation of hours by classification for each firm that is included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Timeframe of the additional work that was outside of the project scope;
• Summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated with
the additional work; and
• Explanation as to why the consultant believes the additional work was outside of the agreement
scope of work.
Step 2 Review by Agency Personnel Regarding the Consultant's Claim for Additional Compensation
After the consultant has completed step 1,the next step in the process is to forward the request to the
Agency's project manager. The project manager will review the consultant's claim and will met with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer to determine if the Agency agrees with the claim. If the
FHWA is participating in the project's funding, forward a copy of the consultant's claim and the Agency's
recommendation for federal participation in the claim to the WSDOT Local Programs through the Region
Local Programs Engineer. If the claim is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from
agency funds.
If the Agency project manager, Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, WSDOT Local Programs
(if applicable), and FHWA(if applicable) agree with the consultant's claim, send a request memo, including
backup documentation to the consultant to either supplement the agreement, or create a new agreement
for the claim. After the request has been approved,the Agency shall write the supplement and/or new
agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for
the agreement is subject to audit. No further action in needed regarding the claim procedures.
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, proceed to step 3 of the procedures.
Agreement Number: 2143
Exhibit J-Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Revised 02/01/2021 Page 1 of 2
80
Step 3 Preparation of Support Documentation Regarding Consultant's Claim(s)
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, the project manager shall prepare a summary
for the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer that included the following:
• Copy of information supplied by the consultant regarding the claim;
• Agency's summation of hours by classification for each firm that should be included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Agency's summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated
with the additional work;
• Explanation regarding those areas in which the Agency does/does not agree with the consultant's
claim(s);
• Explanation to describe what has been instituted to preclude future consultant claim(s); and
• Recommendations to resolve the claim.
Step 4 Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer Reviews Consultant Claim and Agency Documentation
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall review and administratively approve or disapprove
the claim, or portions thereof, which may include getting Agency Council or Commission approval (as
appropriate to agency dispute resolution procedures). If the project involves federal participation, obtain
concurrence from WSDOT Local Programs and FHWA regarding final settlement of the claim. If the claim
is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from agency funds.
Step 5 Informing Consultant of Decision Regarding the Claim
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall notify (in writing)the consultant of their final
decision regarding the consultant's claim(s). Include the final dollar amount of the accepted claim(s)
and rationale utilized for the decision.
Step 6 Preparation of Supplement or New Agreement for the Consultant's Claim(s)
The agency shall write the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount
of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit.
