STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This on-call contract supports the City Council’s Safe and Prosperous and Connected and Engaged strategic outcomes. The on-call contract will provide professional civil engineering services, including planning, design, and construction support for infrastructure projects such as roadways, drainage systems, water and wastewater facilities, and other essential public works improvements for the City of Yuma.
REPORT:
The City has utilized open-ended consultant contracts for various types of engineering services on a delivery order basis for over 30 years. These on-call contracts are used to obtain study and design services; bid assistance; construction inspection and administration and post-construction documentation and analysis; land survey; and other related professional services as necessary by the City for the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and other miscellaneous projects required by individual City departments.
A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was issued to select firms for on-call engineering services in compliance with Arizona Board of Technical Registration rules. Each project will be authorized by a delivery order specifying the scope of services required, the maximum time allowed for the services and the fee.
Although the amounts will vary, the maximum value of each delivery order shall not exceed $500,000.00. The City will not guarantee each delivery order will be any specific amount or that the Consultants will receive a minimum number of delivery orders. Any delivery order under this contract that will exceed $100,000 will require City Council approval.
The City received Statement of Qualifications from 18 firms. The evaluation committee, comprised of City staff, reviewed and rated the proposals received, based on the scoring matrix of each firm within the RFQ. City Staff recommends awarding to the top eight highest-ranked firms as determined by the evaluation committee scoring.
The following 18 firms submitted a response to the RFQ: Alta Environmental and Infrastructure; Ayers Associates Inc.; Consor North America Inc.; Core Engineering Group, PLLC; Dahl, Robins & Associates, Inc.; ECS Southwest, LLP; Entellus, Inc.; EPS Group, Inc.; HDR Engineering, Inc.; Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.; Kittelson & Associates, Inc.; Nicklaus Engineering, Inc.; Psomas; Resolut (Formerly VBFA); Stanley Consultants, Inc.; Wildan Engineering; Wilson and Company, Inc., Engineers & Architects; and WSP USA.
