Founded in 1917 in Omaha, Nebraska, HDR employs <br />approximately 1700 personnel in over 40 offi(:es throughout the nation. Initially, the firm provided <br />engineering services to cities and towns tbrough oult the Midwest. The company prospered largely <br />because of its reputation for "work well done" and personal servic(~. <br /> <br />Significant expansion of the company began in 1957 when HDR opened its first branch office in <br />Colorado. Since then, we have had the distinguishedl privilege of providing profe:ssional engineering <br />services in a variety of fields in Colorado, including water resources. As we look ahead, we <br />continue to stress technical expertise and close client relationships - qualities that will characterize <br />HDR in the years to come. <br /> <br />The services we provide encompass a full range of planning, study, design, and construction <br />administration activities in the fields of water and wastewater systems, water resources, storm water <br />management, bridges, and transportation. The diversity ofHDR's capabilities allows us to provide <br />total engineering services on large projects or Ito provide specialized expertise in one discipline of <br />desired. <br /> <br />The professional and support staff in our Denver office includes a staff of 40 eomposed of civil, <br />environmental, electrical and structural engineers; mgineering technicians; op'~rations specialists; <br />draftsmen; construction administrators; GIS specialists and administrative personnel. We are also <br />able to utilize as a resource the supporting expertise and specialized skills of the professionals in our <br />other offices. <br /> <br />HDR'S QUALIFICA nONS <br /> <br />The project will be led by Kevin Houck and Mary Kay Provaznik. Both team members have a <br />strong interest in this type of work. Both will be available to serve YOW' needs, as well as being abk <br />to provide alternate points of contact for your agency. <br /> <br />HDR, although limited in experience with CWeB, offers a numh~r of skills which will benefit you <br />during this project. We are familiar with many of the twelve counties listed in which flooding <br />occurred. One of our primary projects which has led to our familiarity with the region is an on-call <br />services contract with CDOT to perform a multitude of services tbroughout Region I and Region 2, <br />which consist of most areas east of the Continenta.! Divide. These services include bridge and <br />roadway work, as well as hydraulic design to support these elements. <br /> <br />We have a strong capability for data collection and analysis. One recent project which has allow(,d <br />us to perform this kind of work is the Union Pacific Railroad National Bridge Renewal program. At <br />HDR, we have chosen to take the data managl~ment process one s,tep further. Mary Kay personally <br />designed and developed a database to manage all information obtained during site reconnaissance, <br />field work, and analysis. This database was capable of manipulating information and a number of <br />different custom reports were developed for the presentation of infiJrmation. <br /> <br />Mary Kay is also the primary developer of the Rio Grande Decision Support System database for tbe <br />State Engineer's Office. Using Visual Basi(:, sh~ developed a program which compares data <br />between different databases. This work required the understanding of data management formats and <br />data entry logic in order to manipulate and compare large sets of data. <br /> <br />1999 Flood Documentation Heport <br />HDR Engineering, Inc. <br /> <br />-"rco"~ <br />tf!:M~i\ <br />,"<';Q {, <br />\,,\,,-,{-'<'I~" <br />\~,,'!;fi0~' <br />
