Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into contract with R.W. Armstrong & Associates, Inc. for a professional engineering services contract in the amount of $200,000.00. The intent of this contract is to provide the Division of Planning and Operations with resources to perform engineering and surveying tasks related to bridges, but also to be available for projects requiring a quick response.

Services to be included in this contract include but are not limited to bridge Inspections, bridge load ratings, bridge rehab workplans, and engineering reports, preparation of design plans, engineering analysis and reports, preparation of engineering plans and specifications to correct bridge deficiencies, plans to repair existing structures. Services may be small in scope for individual projects, and some services may be required to quickly address discovered bridge deficiencies, it is desirable to lump these services into one contract.

The project was advertised on the Vendor Services web site from August 25, 2010, to September 27, 2010. The City received ten (10) responses. All proposals were deemed minimally compliant and were fully evaluated when the Evaluation Committee met on October 20, 2010. .
