RE: Approve Amendment to Engineering Services Agreement for Bid Award and Construction
Management Services for WWTP Control System, Influent Pumping, and Aeration Blowers
Upgrade / CH2M HILL Engineers, Inc. (CH2M) ($90,330)
BACKGROUND
A professional services agreement with CH2M for construction management services related to the
Wastewater Treatment Plant control system, influent pumping, and aeration blowers was approved by the
Common Council on November 26, 2013. During the course of construction, it became apparent
additional engineering - related services were necessary in order to successfully complete the project.
ANALYSIS
The project was originally set up to use a construction inspector from the Engineering Division.
Unfortunately, this individual left the City's employ, which required additional assistance from CH2M staff
to perform these services. CH2M also provided controls engineering and integration for control upgrades
that were identified during construction in specific areas that improved operational control and added
value to the project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Staff has reviewed the amendment and costs. The amount of this amendment is $90,330. This will raise
the total agreement amount to $877,140 (not to exceed). These services will be funded through the
Wastewater Water Utility. Funding is available in the Major Equipment section of the 2013 Capital
Improvement Program for these services.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of a
specialized nature, including engineering services, may be procured without the use of formal, sealed
quotes. I have reviewed the amendment and in accordance with Section 12 -16 of the Code, I am hereby
recommending the Common Council approve this amendment.
Approved,
