1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a contract with Hill International, Inc. for the Professional Construction Management 2023 project, CIP #690587-100002, in an amount not to exceed $3,058,800.00.

This contract will assist the City with managing a capital improvement program consisting of multiple capital improvement projects to ensure completion in accordance with design requirements and City’s needs, while serving as a liaison between the construction contractor, design professional (DP), and City personnel. Future phases will include modifications of the contract until the last assigned construction contract is completed.

The Community Planning Areas are 35 Northland, 37 West Scioto, 64 Far South, 68 Dublin Road Corridor, and 99 Citywide, as the water facilities associated with this contract serve multiple planning areas.

TIMELINE & FUTURE RENEWALS
The Notice to Proceed (NTP) is anticipated to occur in November 2023. Construction projects will be assigned to this contract based on their advertisement date using a three year assignment period that starts at this contract’s NTP date; thus, the assignment period is anticipated to run from November 2023 to December 2026. Funds will be authorized through contract modifications as required by fiscal needs. The PCM team will provide construction services through completion of the last construction project assigned to this contract. Thus, the end date for this contract will depend on the construction duration of the last construction project assigned.

ESTIMATED COST OF PROJECT
The initial contract amount is to be $3,058,800.00. Modifications will be performed on an as needed basis for future funding needs. It is anticipated that total spending during the term of the project could total $33,558,800.00 as shown below:
