BACKGROUND:
Since 2012 the Utilities Department has successfully implemented several proactive infrastructure condition assessment programs including a valve and hydrant assessment & replacement, Cross Connection Control (CCC) inspection/testing/replacement, and pipeline condition assessment. These programs have provided comprehensive data critical to the successful implementation of proactive asset management programs and capital improvement projects managed by the Water Field Operations (WFO) division.
Due to the scope and complexity of these perpetual infrastructure assessment and repair/replacement programs, the Utilities Department has requested that Jacobs Engineering, Inc. (Jacobs) continue to augment City staff in the form of project management assistance, contractor coordination and documentation of activities, data management and quality control assistance, including review of contractor submitted data and invoices, and long-term strategic planning.
Staff recommends the approval of Jacobs Engineering, Inc Task Order 2022-18 in the amount of $224,850 pending approval of the FY 2022 budget.
