services can take several months from the time of bid solicitation to purchase order issuance, which is not feasible for routine or as-needed situations.
On August 14, 2025, staff issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit proposals from various contractors to provide On-Call Pavement Marking Maintenance Services. After the closure of the submittal period on September 4, 2025, the City received three (3) proposals. The evaluation panel comprised of Public Works staff who rated the proposals based on their overall qualifications, relevant firm experience, availability, familiarity with the City’s policies, understanding and approach, fee and cost proposal, amongst other factors. Based on the aforementioned factors, Superior Pavement Markings, LLC (Superior) was deemed most qualified contractor to execute the scope.
Staff further reviewed Superior’s proposal package and found it to be consistent with industry standards. The scope and fee for each task will be agreed upon through a letter proposal based on the established fee schedule.
Due to the on-call nature of this Agreement, work is not guaranteed, nor does awarding this contract obligate funds to Superior. This contract term is three (3) years, and the City will have the option to extend this contract for up to two (2) additional one-year terms. The contractor’s agreement is in a not-to-exceed amount of $150,000, for the original three-year term, with each one-year term extension in the amount of $50,000.
