Agreement No.17 75104201 <br /> 1.2.3 Supply Chain Model Development(Baseline Model Development): <br /> The consultants must describe their supply chain optimization model and how it will be used to <br /> analyze baseline(as-is)network performance and review the baseline results with the <br /> stakeholders. <br /> 1.2.4 Baseline Optimization and Constraint Analysis: <br /> The consultants should describe the approach to be used to identify and evaluate network design <br /> alternatives to address constraints and achieve the optimization objectives. A prioritization model <br /> should be developed. Key findings in constraint analysis will be discussed in meetings with city <br /> leaders and subject matter experts. <br /> 1.2.5 "What-if Scenario Analysis: <br /> The consultants will collaborate with Decatur leaders to develop and prioritize the"what-if <br /> scenarios. Consultants should specify the number of what-if scenarios that will be developed as <br /> part of the project. <br /> 1.2.6 Identify Potential Strategies/Protects: <br /> This task entails the qualitative analysis of design alternatives identified in the previous task. <br /> Design alternatives will be prioritized and grouped into recommended logistics solutions. <br /> 1.2.7 Design Deliverables: <br /> A technical report that identifies and assesses both short and long-term needs and opportunities <br /> related to economic development, freight networks,operations,and transportation policy within the <br /> Decatur Area. Details should be included on how the needs and opportunities were identified and <br /> prioritized. <br /> The Consultant must describe how their work will be used to identify potential commercial development <br /> opportunities at or near the MIP. <br /> A separate report will be required that documents the data inputs and model parameters. <br /> 1.3 Phase 3-Business Case Development and Implementation Planning <br /> 1.3.1 Develop Business Case(s): <br /> Consultants should describe how they will complete 3-5 business cases for network <br /> enhancements/projects that address existing bottlenecks in the regional multimodal surface <br /> transportation network. Each business case should present the nature of the network constraint <br /> and present the recommended solution,including the market opportunity,solution concept,facility <br /> sizing,and cost and benefit analysis. Business cases must illustrate the total market opportunity <br /> (for cost savings),as well as the likely market capture based on implementation of the <br /> recommended solution. <br /> 1.3.2 Implementation Planning: <br /> Develop a high-level implementation plan to deliver the recommended optimization strategies, <br /> including scope,tasks,resources,timeline and rough order of magnitude budget. This task will <br /> also include the development of project metrics and documentation required to support financial <br /> assistance applications,such as FASTLANE or TIGER grant applications. <br /> State of Illinois <br /> INTERGOVERNMENTAL GRANT AGREEMENT FISCAL YEAR 2018/3 15 17 <br /> Page 25 of 36 <br />
