BACKGROUND The current year Pavement Management Plan (PMP) was divided into two phases. The first phase was comprised of slurry and chip seal projects. The plans and specifications were prepared in house and a contractor has been selected to complete phase one improvements in April 2004. The second phase of the PMP covers asphalt concrete overlays in the following areas: 1. Azusa and San Gabriel Canyon Road (Old Dairy Road) 2. Gladstone and the Frontage Road, between Citrus and the easterly City boundary line Due to complexity of design issues, especially on the Old Dairy Road that is in large part unimproved , outside consulting services are needed to prepare the plans and specifications. Request for Proposals On January 23, 2003, staff circulated a request for proposals on this project to the following five companies: 1. B& E Engineers 2. Boghossian & Associates Inc. 3. HDR Engineering 4. Korve Engineering, and 5. Wheeler & Gray Inc. On February 18, 2003, only two proposals were submitted from Boghossian & Associates Inc. and Wheeler & Gray Inc. Staff evaluated both proposals based upon the following criteria: $ Experience and demonstrated ability of the designated individual, who will be the project manager. $ Training and experience of support staff. $ Ability to deliver the required work to meet the project schedule. Upon review of the proposals, staff is recommending the selection of Boghossian and Associates for the following reasons: 1. The scope of work as shown in the proposal best meets City requirements. 2. Boghossian & Associates Inc. also provides plan check services to the City and has completed other recent projects to staff’s satisfaction. Each proposal contained the following fee for the project (proposal fee schedules are attached): Boghossian & Assoc Inc $56,880.00 Wheeler & Gray $57,955.00 (plus optional $5,850 for construction management) FISCAL IMPACT The current year CIP list has designated $2,139,000 for the PMP and the consulting fee of $56,880.00 will be paid out of the same funds.
