Report

Summary

On Feb. 14, 2020, the City and Project Engineering Consultants, LTD. entered into the Large Diameter Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Grade 5 and 4 Manholes Engineering Services agreement. The City received notification on Dec. 3, 2022, from Project Engineering Consultants, LTD. indicating the name change from Project Engineering Consultants, LTD. to Consor North America, Inc. and is now operating under the name of Consor North America, Inc.

 

The purpose of this project is to rehabilitate the higher priority Grade 5 and 4 sanitary sewer manholes as identified by the assessment report.

 

This amendment is necessary because the project was phased into four design packages versus a single package. The project deliverable was changed to a manhole rehabilitation work sheet versus a typical design sheet. This change increased the overall project duration, as well as the review periods, and this amendment will provide additional time to the agreement.

 

Project Engineering Consultants, LTD.'s additional services include, but are not limited to: administration of the construction schedule, review of submittals, issue interpretations and clarifications, certify contractor progress payments, inspections, survey, material testing, record drawings and project documents, and field administration.

 

Contract Term

The term of the agreement amendment is five 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 $1.9 million, including all subconsultant and reimbursable costs.
  • This amendment will increase the agreement by an additional $1,150,000, for a new total amount not to exceed $3,050,000, including all subconsultant and reimbursable costs.
