RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a Consulting Services Agreement (contract) with Vanir Construction Management, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000, to provide on-call project management services for the period December 1, 2022, through November 30, 2025, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Work performed under this contract is 100% funded by Federal, Local, State and/or General Funds. (100% Various Funds)

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department is involved in various projects in the County, which require project management services for capital improvement projects. After a solicitation process, this firm was selected as one of five firms to provide project management services on an “on-call” basis. The consultant will augment Public Works staff during busy times when extra help is needed or when in-house expertise is not available. This on-call contract will be in effect for three years. Government code section 31000 authorizes the County to enter into contract for consultant services.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the contract is not approved, necessary capital projects may not be completed in a timely manner, which may jeopardize funding and delay design and construction of various capital projects.
