Explanation
BACKGROUND - This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to enter into contract with MSA Architects in an amount up to $336,400.00 for the Professional Architectural/Engineering Services - Task Order Basis contract.

The Department of Finance and Management (DOFM) initiated a procurement effort that will result in the award and execution of a contract for small projects completed on a task order basis. The intent of the contract is to provide the Office of Construction Management with continuing, contractual access to resources that are necessary to perform professional Architectural/Engineering (A/E) services as well as provide technical expertise for DOFM to implement projects for various City of Columbus departments. The A/E will be responsible for the complete architectural design and construction administration for each project, including but not limited to: structural, mechanical, electrical, and civil engineering; programming/space planning, site development, full design, cost estimating, construction inspection, shop drawing review; and geotechnical, environmental site assessment, landscaping, and other services as required for the completion of the project. In addition to typical architectural design/construction projects, DOFM may request that the A/E provide peer review or constructability review services.

The Department of Finance and Management, Office of Construction Management, solicited Requests for Proposals for the Professional Architectural/Engineering Services - Task Order Basis contract. The project was formally advertised on the Vendor Services web site from November 2, 2015, to November 23, 2015. The city received 12 responses as listed below. All proposals were deemed responsive and were fully evaluated when the Evaluation Committee met on December 4, 2015.
