- TITLE: AWARD OF MASTER AGREEMENTS FOR
PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING, ENVIRONMENTAL, PLANNING, GEOTECHNICAL, SURVEYING,
AND PROPERTY APPRAISAL SERVICES
ITEM EXPLANATION: With City Council and CMWD Board approval, the Public Works Department contracts with consulting firms to obtain professional services to facilitate the timely completion of Capital Improvement Program projects. To reduce the time and cost to obtain professional services, staff is recommending that the City Council and the CMWD Board approve Master Agreements for roadway, drainage and traffic engineering, water, recycled water and sewer utility engineering, environmental planning, geotechnical, surveying, and property appraisal services.
In addition to defining the terms of the agreement the subject Master Agreements identify the discipline of professional services to be provided and the maximum value of services that can be performed on Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects over the term of the agreement. As project specific work tasks are identified, individual Task Description and Fee Allotments are negotiated with the appropriate Master Agreement consultants. Each Task Description and Fee Allotment will include an exhibit that defines a detailed scope of services, which corresponds to the discipline identified in the Master Agreement, and an associated fee. The disciplines for this set of Master Agreements are as follows: 1) Roadway, Drainage and Traffic Engineering, 2) Water, Recycled Water and Sewer Utility Engineering, 3) EnvironmentaVPlanning Studies, 4) Geotechnical, 5) Surveying/Potholing and 6) Property Appraisal Services. The most recent set of twelve Master Agreements for this same range of services has expired.
Staff utilized the following process to identify the recommended consultants. After reviewing a listing of firms that have expressed interest in working for the City and the CMWD and a discussion of consulting firms known to staff, Statements of Qualifications (SOQ’s) were solicited from over forty consultants. To avoid concentrating the workload with too few consultants, the maximum number of disciplines a consultant team could be considered for was set at two. The SOQ’s were evaluated based on Firm Experience, Project Team, and Project Approach relative to the master agreement format and the consultant‘s discipline of expertise. The following table summarizes the number of SOQ’s submitted for each discipline.
DISCIPLINE # OF SOWS RECIEVED 1) Roadway, Drainage and Traffic 10
~ 2) Water, Recycled Water and Sewer 11
Selection committees for each discipline reviewed the SOQ’s and identified the two most qualified consultants based on the evaluation criteria noted above. By selecting two firms for each discipline, design projects will not be delayed by staffing constraints at any one firm. Based on ranking of the SOQ’s by the selection committees, consistent with Carlsbad Municipal Code section 3.28.070, staff is recommending that the City and CMWD execute master agreements with the selected firms as noted in the following table.
t
Page 2 of Agenda Bill No. 17,266
The proposed Master Agreements are for an initial term which will end on September 30, 2004 and
they contain provisions for the City ManagerIExecutive Director to execute two, one-year extensions
based upon a review of the Contractor's performance; City and District needs and; as needed, the
appropriation of funds by the City Council/Executive Board.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The maximum amounts payable by the City and CMWD to each consultant during the initial contract term which will end on September 30, 2004, and any subsequent one-year extension periods are shown on the following table. During the initial contract term the total potential value of consulting
services that could be contracted with the City in conjunction with the twelve contracts is
$1,150,000. During this same initial term the total potential value of consulting services that could
be contracted with the CMWD is $850,000. These values would also apply to the two, one-year
extensions, which means the total potential value of these Master Agreements is $6,000,000 over a
three-year period. The actual value and maximum expenditures for these consulting services will be established by each individual Task Description and Fee Allotment, which will be constrained by the available project funding appropriated in conjunction with the Capital Improvement Program.

services under this Agreement will not be considered employees of City for any
purposes.

2 City Attorney Approved Version #04/03/02
7. SUBCONTRACTING
Contractor will not subcontract any portion of the Services without prior written
approval of City. If Contractor subcontracts any of the Services, Contractor will be fully
responsible to City for the acts and omissions of Contractor's subcontractor and of the

them or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable.
The parties expressly agree that any payment, attorney's fee, costs or expense City incurs or makes to or on behalf of an injured employee under the City's self-
administered workers' compensation is included as a loss, expense or cost for the
purposes of this section, and that this section will survive the expiration or early

Best's Key Rating of not less than "A-:VI'.

and minimum limits indicated below, unless City Attorney or City Manager approves a lower amount. These minimum amounts of coverage will not constitute any limitations
or cap on Contractor's indemnification obligations under this Agreement. City, its
officers, agents and employees make no representation that the limits of the insurance
specified to be carried by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to protect Contractor. If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate, Contractor will obtain such additional insurance coverage, as Contractor deems adequate, at Contractor's sole expense.

of the Contractor, any subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of
them or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable.
