Urben, CPPO FMP Manager, General Services Division City of Oshkosh 215 Church Avenue Ohskosh, Wisconsin 54903-1130 G AECOM 558 North Main Street Oshkosh, WI 54901 aecom.com Date April 25, 2018 AECOM Proposal No. OPP-813115 Proposal to Update the Bidding Documents Related to the Proposed Oshkosh Police Department Fence located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin Dear Mr. Urben, AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM) is pleased to present this proposal to the City of Oshkosh (City) to revise the design and bidding documents for the proposed Oshkosh Police Department (OPD) Parking Lot Fence project. Project Understanding AECOM assisted the City in developing bidding documents for this project in 2017. The project bidding documents were based on Department of Public works bidding requirements and City Standard Specifications and were assigned Contract 17-28. Unfortunately there were not any bids received during the bidding process. Contractors were interviewed as to why they did not bid and the following concerns were identified: Project was too complicated and the scope of work was beyond what Fencing Contractors usually provide. Examples are: — Concrete and pavement removal and replacement project requirements — Landscaping and restoration project requirements — Erosion control project requirements — Coordination with City crews to complete the project requirements Fencing Contractors normally do not provide Contract Management services as they are normally retained as a subcontractor. — City Standard Specification and Municipal Bidding requirements are too cumbersome — Bonding and Insurance requirements exceed what fencing contractors normally provide The project time line requirements were too restrictive As a result, it was decided by City staff to rebid the project under the City Purchasing Department guidelines. This approach will reduce the complexity of the bidding documents and associated requirements. In addition, City staff will complete all facets of the project that are not directly related to the fence and/or gate installation. The project schedule will also be revised in an attempt to reduce Contractor risk. A prebid meeting will be held to explain the project to potential bidders. The project is planned to be constructed during the 2018 construction season. The bidding documents previously prepared will be modified and incorporated into the standard Purchasing bidding document format. The proposed scope of work is provided below.
