Professional Services Contracts for On-Call Construction Management, Materials Testing, and Inspection Services Department of Public Works
December 16, 2025
BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department requires professional construction management, materials testing and inspections services on an on-call or as-needed basis to support staff in the management, inspection, and testing of local, state, and federally funded capital improvement projects, most of which are identified in the annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As such, Public Works advertised a Request for Proposal (RFP) for these services.
The RFP covered multiple construction management disciplines, including project management, special inspections, design-build and progressive design-build. The City in the past (2021-2025) has had existing on-call consulting firms to provide support and is proposing a similar selection of on-call consultants from this RFP Selection.
NEED/WHY/BENEFITS
CIP includes various infrastructure projects and programs that require construction management support. Many of these projects involve design work or specialized studies that City staff are unable to complete internally. Additional responsibilities beyond staff capacity include construction management, performing inspections and testing, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations. .
