Revised Presentation r� A'Y.. 1 BUSINESS CASE EVALUATION CENTRAL SAN PROCESS Bryan McGloin, Management Analyst Danea Gemmell, Planning and Development Services Division Manager Jean-Marc Petit, Director of Engineering and Technical Services Engineering and Operations Committee Meeting November 19, 2019 I WHY CONDUCT A BUSINESS CASE EVALUATION (BCE)? • BCE is a process to evaluate solutions to a need/problem and determine how best to address this need considering financial, environmental, and social impacts. It is a multi-step process intended to maximize objective over subjective assessment of project alternatives. • Evaluate economic(cost)and non-economic variables • Consider consistent factors across multiple project alternatives • Normalize values to allow for combination and comparison • Although a BCE will often be highly quantitative, its ultimate purpose is to support a business judgment decision on a proposed project. 6- ZVQ 112 INTRODUCTION 1 BCE AT CENTRAL SAN • BCE conducted to date on major projects • Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan • Headworks Screenings Upgrade, District Project (DP) 7327 • Solids Handling Facility Improvements, DP 7348 • Pump Station Upgrades, Phase 1, DP 8436 • Filter Plant and Clearwell Improvements - Phase 1A, DP 7361 • Influent Pump Electrical Improvements, DP 7328 • BCE on upcoming major projects • Pump Station Upgrades, Phase 2, DP 8457 • Steam and Aeration Blower Systems Renovations, DP 7349 3 BACKGROUND CURRENT BCE PROCESS AT CENTRAL SAN 1.
