Rohloff, City Manager DATE: April 22, 2021 RE: Professional Services Agreement with AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM) for Survey Support Services for the 2021 Construction Season ($51,300) The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from AECOM to provide field staff to assist with the City of Oshkosh’s (City) survey team during the spring and summer of 2021. The City requested this assistance due to a shortage of summer part-time help applications, staff shortages due to open positions, and in an effort to complete design of projects for the 2022 construction season in order to be more proactive with private utility company notifications. Communication and coordination with the other users of the public right-of-way is critical for the successful completion of construction projects. In recent years, the private utility companies have been pushing to get plans sooner to allow themselves more time to complete their design work. The AECOM field staff will be partnered with an experienced City staff member. The City will be providing the necessary survey equipment and AECOM will be providing their staff member with the necessary personal protective equipment in accordance with their Health and Safety Plan. The cost of these services is estimated not to exceed $51,300 and will be funded from the 2021 Capital Improvement Program (Account #03210410-6801-04091/Contract Control-Paving-Annual – Envir Assmts/Subsf, 03210410-6802-04091/Contract Control-Sanitary Sewer-Annual – Envir Assmts/Subsf, 03210410-6803-04091/Contract Control-Water Main-Annual – Envir Assmts/Subsf, and 03210410-6804- 04091/Contract Control-Storm Sewer-Annual – Envir Assmts/Subsf). Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code provides that professional services of a specialized nature, including engineering services, may be approved by the City Manager without the use of formal, sealed quotes. In accordance with Section 12-16 of the Code, I am here by submitting this report regarding this professional services agreement. MAR/jer
