Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into a professional engineering services contract with Dynotec, Inc.

The intent of this project is to provide the City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, additional resources to perform various engineering and surveying tasks for all divisions in the department: Mobility Options, Planning and Operation, and Design and Construction. The projects developed under this program are typically small to moderate size improvements, and frequently include a significant emphasis on pavement rehabilitation, curb replacement, sidewalks, curb ramps, drainage, minor intersection improvements, and other minor rehabilitations and aesthetic improvements as requested. Non-standard plan formats may be used for the simplest projects where there is no apparent benefit from developing standard construction drawings.
The selected consultant shall be readily available to perform such tasks when requested by the City. Services on request and detailed scopes of individual projects will be developed as requested and work will be authorized as individual scopes are developed. The ability to complete projects in a short timeframe will be a critical point in the evaluation process. The consultant shall be expected to work on multiple projects concurrently. The consultant should refer to this description when preparing their proposal for understanding, schedule, and tasks defined.
The Department of Public Service, Office of Support Services solicited Requests for Proposals for the UIRF - General Engineering Services contract. The project was advertised through the City's Vendor Services web site from August 3, 2011, to September 1, 2011. The city received Eleven (11) responses. All Eleven were fully evaluated when the Evaluation Committee met on September 16, 2011.
