AGENDA REPORT D 6
TO: Dave Adams, City Manager
FROM: Nasser Abbaszadeh, Director of Engineering and Building
SUBJECT: Consideration of Master Personal Services Agreements for Engineering,
Building, and Architectural Services
RECOMMENDATION
By motion, approve 35 consultant service agreements to perform and execute
Engineering, Building, and Architectural Services including building and engineering
plan check services for a three (3) year term with the option of two (2) one-year
extensions, not to exceed $50,000 per project proposal, per year.
A. Summary and Recommendation
The concept of a master consultant listing of prequalified firms was originally
introduced in 1992 and, to date, has worked very well. It was created as a means to
• improve service delivery for resident and developer plan check, as well as
environmental, traffic studies, inspection services and temporary staffing. The
concept has proven successful, resulting in improved efficiency. Our current
contracts expire on December 31, 2006. Therefore, staff has solicited proposals
and is requesting that 35 firms be recommended for a new three-year contract with
the option of two one-year extensions.
B. Background
1. History
In 1992, City Council approved the concept of creating a plan check consultant
team consisting of a select group of consultants. The team concept creates a long-
term contract with each consultant. The purpose of the team concept is to have
available consultants with pre -approved contracts and insurance in place and ready
to go to work. The team concept allows staff to expeditiously process all consultant
plan checking. In addition, the plan check team agreements required that they
perform their services at a specified percentage of the City's fees. All consultants
agree to a fee not to exceed 65% or 80%, depending upon the type of plan check.
In many instances, the fees are negotiated lower, especially on larger projects.
Upon expiration of the initial five year term, and having had a positive experience
with this concept, the master listing was reviewed, updated, and again brought to
Council for approval in 1997. Design services were added to the listing in 1997, in
addition to plan check services.
0 SE)
Agenda Report
Paae 2
October 17, 2006
In December 2001, City Council again approved agreements with a selected group
of consultants for plan check and design services. These agreements will expire
December 31, 2006.
2. Selection Process
A Request for Proposals was sent to 46 firms. Many of these firms were on the
pre -approved list, with others added at staff members request. Of the 46 firms, 35
responded with proposals. The proposals included general engineering and
building firms, as well as a number of specialty companies. The specialty
companies include areas such as geotechnical, traffic, building structural, and water
quality services. A review team consisting of the Department Director,
Administrative Assistant, and Engineering and Building Project Managers reviewed
the proposals for the following elements:
• Consistency with the scope of work
• Ability to meet schedules
• Past performance of similar work
• Individual(s) specified to work on projects
• Ability to meet fee requirements
Qualifications of firm in handling required work
Staff believes that all 35 firms qualify based on the above criteria. As this is a three-
year contract with two one-year extensions, there is no need to narrow the field.
Staff prefers to spread projects among the teams as work becomes available. This
provides more flexibility and allows work to be performed in a more efficient and
timely manner. Attachment 1 provides a list of consultants defined by their area of
expertise.
3. Process
Plan Check Services are to be performed at a not -to -exceed fee based on a fixed
percentage of the City's calculated plan check cost. This eliminates the need to
negotiate fees and allows staff to select a consultant and request they perform the
work at the agreed upon price. No time is wasted with costly proposals, reviews,
and fee negotiations.
Design and miscellaneous services not covered byfee recovery, such as design for
a City capital improvement project, will continue to require that staff solicit proposals
from at least three members of the team. Proposals will then be evaluated and
followed by consultant selection. If the fee exceeds the $50,000 limit established
under the master contract, it will be forwarded to City Council for review and
approval. However, no new personal service agreements will be required, nor will
insurance certifications cause delays, as they will already be in place.
