BACKGROUND:
On August 6, 2019, an Engineering Services Agreement for Project No. 19101, Lincoln Lift Station Rehabilitation, was awarded to Westwood Professional Services, Inc. to provide design-bid services and engineering services during construction. During the course of the design, there were several delays caused by extensive modifications to the design scope. As a result, these design modifications delayed the completion of the engineered design and subsequent bidding and award of the construction package. Amendment No. 1 will provide additional funds and a time extension to provide the necessary engineering support through construction and project closeout.
Staff recommends that the Board approve and authorize the General Manager to sign Amendment No. 1 of the Agreement for Engineering Services with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. to continue to provide engineering services during construction for Project 19101. Westwood Professional Services, Inc., a Nevada
Business Enterprise, currently holds a Clark County business license.
Pursuant to Nevada Revised Statue 332.115(1)(b), contracts for professional services are not adapted to award by competitive bidding, and therefore, are exempt from the bidding requirements.
This agenda item has been reviewed and approved by the District General Counsel.
