SUBJECT:Title
Award Agreement for Professional Services (Construction Management) to Atkins North America, Inc., for the Water Booster Station 1C Replacement and Tank Rehabilitation Project (Dustin Salisbury)
Body
FUNDING SOURCE:
CIP-Irrigation and Drainage District Fund
PURPOSE:
Award Agreement for Professional Services (Construction Management) for the Water Booster Station 1C Replacement and Tank Rehabilitation Project in accordance with City Code Section 3.10.040. (Project No.’s WT7440 & WT7480)
BACKGROUND:
In December of 2014, staff performed a consultant selection process to obtain engineering services for water system needs. The selection process used by staff was a qualifications based process, which required response to an RFQ and subsequent interviews. Atkins was chosen by the selection committee to provide water system engineering services to the City.
Staff has negotiated a fee of $437,981 with Atkins for Professional Services, which we feel is fair and reasonable.
COMMUNITY IMPACT:
Booster Station 1C has reached the end of its serviceable life on a majority of the components and requires replacement. Tank S-1C-24 is experiencing structural failures and is in need of immediate repair. This project will help ensure continued adequate drinking water supply is available to the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient budget is available in both the 2017 Tank & Booster Station Improvements Project No. WT7440 in the amount of $329,721 and the 2019 Tank & Booster Station Improvements Project No. WT7480 in the amount of $108,260.
