Approval of On Call Agreements with Intertek PSI, Krazan and MTC for Material Testing and Special Inspection Services, in an Amount Not to Exceed $300,000 per Firm
OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
recommendation
These on -call agreements with Intertek PSI, Krazan, and MTC in an amount not to exceed $300,000 per firm, for a total of $900,000 are for Material Testing services. The agreements will be in effect through December 31, 2024, with the option to extend them for one year and an additional $200,000 per firm based on the City's needs and the firm's performance.
On-call agreements are slightly different than other contracts in that Council approval is for a spending limit and not for specific funding. The projects that use the agreement are funded in the CIP and therefore, there is no budget impact when approving an on-call. This on-call is for $300k due to an increase of inflation and an estimation that more testing is likely for the planned future projects.
Public Works structures on-calls with an owner - someone to oversee the overall on-call and then each project that uses the on-call develops a task order and the project manager oversees the task order. Payments under each task are authorized by the fund managers for the project (NBU owner).
The signer on the task orders is the construction manager as delegated from the City Engineer.
