Title
Booster Pump Stations Rehabilitation and Replacement - Engineering Services Amendment - WS85100032 (Ordinance S-50178)
Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to Agreement 150121 with Wilson Engineers, LLC, to provide additional Engineering Services for the Booster Pump Stations Rehabilitation and Replacement project. Further request to authorize execution of amendments to the agreement as necessary within the Council-approved expenditure authority as provided below, and for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The additional fee for services included in this amendment will not exceed $300,000.
Report
Summary
The purpose of this project is to rehabilitate or replace six booster pump stations (BPS), including summarizing and prioritizing the BPS as part of the capital improvement projects over the next several years. The proposed sites will require extensive coordination with Operations and other divisions, including potentially performing construction activities in parallel at multiple sites within a tight construction schedule.
This amendment is necessary because additional time is needed to complete construction administration and inspection services for the electrical rehabilitation at BPS 1-B3. This amendment will provide additional funds and time to the agreement.
Contract Term
The term of the agreement amendment is three years from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Work scope identified and incorporated into the agreement prior to the end of the term may be agreed to by the parties, and work may extend past the termination of the agreement. No additional changes may be executed after the end of the term.
Financial Impact
- The initial agreement for Engineering Services was approved for an amount not to exceed $1,475,000, including all subconsultant and reimbursable costs.
- This amendment will increase the agreement by an additional $300,000, for a new total amount not to exceed $1,775,000, including all subconsultant and reimbursable costs.
Funding for this amendment is available in the Water Services Department's Capital Improvement Program budget. The Budget and Research Department will separately review and approve funding availability prior to the execution of any amendments. Payments may be made up to agreement limits for all rendered agreement services, which may extend past the agreement termination.
