MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the 901mon Council
FROM: James Rabe, Director of Public Work
DATE: May 3, 2018
RE: Approve Engineering Services Agreement for Environmental Support for 2018 Capital
Improvement Projects (CIP) / AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM) ($130,000)
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from AECOM for environmental support for the 2018
calendar year. The services provided under this proposal include, but are not limited to, environmental historical
records review, Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments, site investigations/characterizations and cleanups,
development of work plans and contaminated material management plans, documentation of contaminated soil
removal during construction activities, and offsite treatment and disposal applications and approvals.
ANALYSIS
AECOM was chosen for this work due to their office location in downtown Oshkosh, their knowledge of the City,
and vast experience with this type of work from our previous programs. The work associated with this project
requires an extremely short response time in order to reduce/eliminate down time charges from contractors. When
contamination is discovered in the field, the Contractor cannot proceed with work until the Consultant is on site to
test, document, and ensure the materials are handled appropriately in accordance with all local, state, and federal
laws.
FISCAL IMPACT
Staff has reviewed the agreement and costs. The cost of these services is estimated not to exceed $130,000, and will
be charged to the Storm Water Utility, Water Utility, Sanitary Sewer Utility, or the Street Paving CIP depending on
the location of any contamination encountered. Funding is available in all four (4) accounts.
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 this
agreement and in accordance with Section 12-16 of the Code, I am hereby recommending that the Common Council
approve the award of this engineering services agreement.
Approved:

City Manager

which is within walking distance of Oshkosh City Hall. This centralized location within the City allows our team to
provide rapid response time without incurring travel time and expense to projects, including attending meetings at City
Hall. AECOM specializes in design, bidding assistance, construction documentation, environmental services and
material testing. By providing these services locally, the City of Oshkosh receives a streamlined, cost-effective
approach; consistent design goal understanding and implementation; rapid response to unanticipated project
