SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1: PROJECT COORDINATION AND MANAGEMENT
1.1: KICKOFF MEETING
Following execution of the project contract, consultant will hold a formal kickoff meeting with City
staff. The meeting will focus on review of the scope of work, the project timeline, and key
outcomes for the project. The meeting will also help us define project objectives and areas of
concern and to clarify project priorities and timelines of concurrent projects.
1.2: ONGOING COMMUNICATION AND PROGRESS REPORTING
Consultant will conduct bi-monthly phone meetings with the City’s Project Manager to discuss
progress and key technical questions. This task also includes developing monthly progress
reports outlining project status and upcoming activities and coordination with the internal team.
TASK 1 DELIVERABLES:
1.1 Kickoff meeting, agenda, and summary
1.2 Bi-monthly coordination calls and monthly progress reports
TASK 2: BRANDING AND SIGN REVIEW
Task Description: This task will be undertaken to gain an understanding of existing conditions
for signs and wayfinding around Bremerton, how people move around Bremerton on foot and by
bike, and which destinations are important to include on wayfinding signs.
Task Assumptions:
· The wayfinding sign system will incorporate existing city branding, and this task will be
focused on understanding that system
· The wayfinding plan will address the entire city but downtown will be the focus area for
the pilot program
· Bicycling, walking, and driving routes will be assessed and addressed in the plan.
The consultant will begin the project with a review of the City’s existing plans, policies, and signs
relating to wayfinding, as well as community visioning and branding. Consultant will include any
relevant information from Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT),
Washington State Ferries (WSF), and the Naval Base. The consultant will also consult with City
staff about their fabrication capacities and preferences for sign material and post style for use
on the roadway and off-street network and will review any local standards for post and sign
fabrication and installation.
This review will help with the development of concepts that are consistent with and integrate
with existing and planned signage to the extent possible. The findings will be documented in a
research findings report.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1034A36F-6864-4FA1-8D31-BF6F205F2694
Page 4 of 7
TASK 2 DELIVERABLES:
2.1 Research findings report for branding and sign review
TASK 3: PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Task Description: The consultant will use a variety of methods and formats to solicit input
and guidance from stakeholders to inform the content and placement of the wayfinding signs.
This task will cover engagement and communication with the community and stakeholders. The
Steering Committee will be the focus of the engagement; committee members will be able to
provide the technical input and guidance to develop concepts, which can then be shared with
the wider community.
3.1: PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE
Consultant will plan and facilitate one interactive Open House early in the process to solicit input
on destinations, circulation patterns, and sign design concepts. It is assumed that this event will
be held online.
3.2: ONLINE SURVEY
Consultant will develop one online survey to solicit input on the sign design alternatives (Task
4.1). The survey will be promoted using a social media campaign (described below). Consultant
will provide paper versions as needed and appropriate. Social media will be used to promote
participation in the survey to invite input from a wide range of community members at different
points throughout the project.
3.3: WAYFINDING STEERING COMMITTEE MEETINGS
The Wayfinding Steering Committee will provide direction at critical points throughout the project
and will also help with promoting and sharing progress with the wider community. Ideally, one
meeting would take the format of an interactive design workshop. Up to three steering
committee meetings are assumed.
TASK 3 DELIVERABLES:
3.1 Public Open House, including agenda, meeting materials/presentation, and facilitation
3.2 Online survey, draft and final
3.3 Wayfinding Steering Committee meeting materials, including agendas, meeting content, and
brief summary (maximum of three)
TASK 4: WAYFINDING SIGN DESIGN
Task Description: In this task, the consultant will develop sign concepts and design guidelines.
This task will integrate guidance from Task 2, input from the public engagement efforts, and
direction from the project team meetings, to inform the concepts. The guidelines will address
sign design and assembly.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1034A36F-6864-4FA1-8D31-BF6F205F2694
Page 5 of 7
4.1: SIGN CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
Based on input from the project team, the Wayfinding Steering Committee, and best practices,
the consultant will develop a sign family and two draft sign concepts for each family. It is
expected that the City’s wayfinding system will include monument or gateway signs for people
traveling by foot, bus, bicycle, and car as well as confirmation and decision/turn signs. These
will be shared with the public via the survey. The project team will then discuss the input from
the public engagement/survey, with the Wayfinding Steering Committee to select a preferred
design.
At a minimum, the following topics will be addressed in the concepts:
· Discussion of any variation from the national or local guidance on wayfinding sign
design, along with a justification and explanation of the process that was used to choose
the design
· Recommended sign typology for the City’s wayfinding system, and explanation of the
different sign types recommended (sign family)
· Colors, sizes, and proposed materials
4.2: PILOT SIGN PLANS (UP TO 25 SIGNS TOTAL)
Once the preferred concept is selected, the consultant will incorporate one round of refinements
of the signs. The consultant will then develop pilot sign plans for one to three high-priority areas
in Bremerton, including draft sign designs for up to a maximum of 25 signs total. Consultant will
not develop sign designs for map kiosks as part of the sign plans. Sign plans will consist of a
GIS shapefile including points on a map or aerial photo for each sign assembly, as well as
images of individual draft signs for each location provided in PDF format. City staff or signing
crews will need to use judgement to ensure signs are installed in appropriate locations.
4.3: SIGN DESIGN AND LAYOUT/DESIGN INTENT DRAWINGS
Following the pilot installation and discussion of public input on pilot signs, final design intent
drawings to be developed for inclusion in the Draft Wayfinding Plan. Included will be sign design
and layout specifications such as sign dimensions, materials, colors, fonts, icons and symbols,
and graphics or logos.
TASK 4 DELIVERABLES:
4.1 Sign Family and Draft Concepts (two designs)
4.2 Pilot Sign Plans based on the preferred concept
4.3 Design Intent Drawings for the finalized sign design
TASK 5: WAYFINDING PLACEMENT GUIDELINES
Task Description: The consultant will prepare a memorandum that describes and illustrates
basic recommendations for placement of signs throughout the city.

Page 6 of 7
5.1: SELECTION OF DESTINATIONS
Based on the important destinations identified by the project team and by the Steering
Committee, the consultant will develop a multi-tiered hierarchy for destinations to be included on
wayfinding signs. Destinations considered will include cultural amenities, parks, trails, corridors,
gateways, transit stops/stations, and parking.
This task will cover the following topics:
· Guidance on how to select destinations for each sign assembly by using a destination
hierarchy
· Naming conventions for destinations and routes (as applicable) as they should appear
on signs
The consultant will work closely with City staff to develop these recommendations and design a
system that has the flexibility for the City to make changes and easily add new signs and
destinations in the future. The destinations to be included in the initial wayfinding system
implementation will be consolidated into a GIS shapefile.
5.2: SIGN FABRICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDANCE
Once the final design intent drawings for the Wayfinding Plan have been completed, the
consultant will create a fabrication and installation guidance document with probable costs for
the City. The sign fabrication and installation guidance document will include the following
topics:
· Sign fabrication materials and references to local, state, and federal standards
· Planning-level cost estimates for sign fabrication and installation
TASK 5 DELIVERABLES:
5.1 Wayfinding sign destination hierarchy and map, draft
5.2 Sign fabrication and installation guidance, draft
TASK 6: WAYFINDING PLAN
In this task, consultant will integrate the guidance and work products from the previous tasks,
and input from the public engagement, Wayfinding Steering Committee, and City staff into a
Wayfinding Plan for Bremerton. The Wayfinding Plan will provide the City with the necessary
protocols, standards, signage templates and probable fabrication and installation cost estimates
for implementing the wayfinding system. The plan will be submitted for review and undergo one
