Report
Summary
The purpose of this project is to replace BPSs 3SE-B1 and 2S-B3. 3SE-B1 is one of two major BPSs that serve as a source, or feeder, station for the Ahwatukee area, providing a reliable, redundant means to serve this portion of the City. BPS 2S-B3, which serves a pressure zone between Southern Avenue and South Mountain, is also located on the site and will require rehabilitation at the same time. BPSs 3SE-B1 and 2S-B3 have reached the end of their useful life and require complete replacement. Staff proposes replacing the 3SE-B1 BPS with a new 44 million gallons per day (MGD) BPS and the 2S-B3 BPS with a new 20 MGD pressure reducing valve (PRV) station on a site located near the existing BPS station. Staff expects the existing stations will remain in operation during construction.
PCL Construction, Inc.'s initial services will include preparation of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) proposal for the Construction Services provided under the agreement and participating with the City in a process to establish a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) goal for the project. PCL will be responsible for construction means and methods related to the project and fulfilling the SBE program requirements. PCL Construction, Inc. will be required to solicit bids from prequalified subcontractors and to perform the work using the City's subcontractor selection process. PCL may also compete to self-perform limited amounts of work.
PCL Construction, Inc.'s services include, but are not limited to: constructing the infrastructure for the BPS and PRV station, scheduling, managing site operations, field verification of site conditions, arranging for procurement of materials and equipment, and providing quality controls.
Procurement Information
The selection was made using a qualifications-based selection process set forth in section 34-603 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Scoring and selection were made in conjunction with the CMAR Preconstruction Services selection process.
Contract Term
