Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into a professional services contract for the Facilities Management Division with Advanced Engineering Consultants for professional engineering services associated with the renovation of fire alarm systems and sprinkler systems at various Fire stations.

Advanced Engineering Consultants will be responsible for the complete design program, including the design of fire alarm systems for multiple Fire stations and the design of sprinkler systems for all mechanical rooms in these stations in order to meet code requirements. Twenty-two stations are included in this project.

A Request for Proposals (RFP) was solicited by the Public Service Department on June 17, 2005, with responses due on June 30, 2005. The City received four proposals (1 FBE, 1 MBR, 1 MBE). The Public Service Director reviewed the statements.

Emergency action is requested so that work may begin as quickly as possible in order to bring all Fire station fire alarm systems and sprinkler systems up to code.

Fiscal Impact: The Fire Division budgeted $50,000.00 in the General Government Grant Fund to complete the professional services for this project. The actual project will be bid once the engineering is complete. Advanced Engineering Consultants Contract Compliance Number 31-1612308, exp. 07/13/2008.
