Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify Four General Engineering contracts to remove the ending dates for the contracts so that the remaining funds on those contracts can be efficiently utilized. The intent of these projects is to provide the City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, additional resources to perform various engineering and surveying tasks.
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 rehabilitations, and aesthetic improvements. These contracts may be used for quick response design services. These contracts were legislated in ordinance 0563-2008 for a timeframe of two years.
The contracts were awarded for $250,000.00 each for ME Companies, Resource International, American Structurepoint, and Prime Engineering.
Searches in the Excluded Party List System (Federal) and the Findings for Recovery list (State) produced no findings against ME Companies, Resource International, American Structurepoint, and Prime Engineering.
