SUMMARY: The expansion of the Airport Fire Station #2 has a Building Code requirement for Testing and Special Inspection for materials utilized on the project. A Standard City Agreement with attached exhibits define the terms of this professional service. BACKGROUND: In cooperation with the Department of Procurement & Contracts, a Request For Proposal (RFP 07-01) was circulated and received from three (3) firms. All three (3) of the proposals were scored by an in house committee. All three of the reviewers concurred that the best proposal was from Ninyo & Moore. The hourly rates for the different types of required inspections varied from $55 to $75 per hour, with a four(4) hour minimum. Ninyo & Moore proposed an hourly rate of$68 per hourwith a four(4) hour minimum, which included all administrative and overhead costs. The firm proposing $55 pertest had an additional charge for administration and overhead. Taking into account all the conditions of the RFP, including cost, Ninyo & Moore was rated as the most qualified. Ninyo & Moore was competitively selected in 1998 to perform these same type of inspections for Phase IIA of the terminal expansion. They have also completed numerous other assignments throughout Southern California and have excellent references. In an effort to reduce the overall cost of this work, Ninyo & Moore has requested the requirement for the Performance Bond be waived. Ninyo &Moore was not required to provide the Performance Bond during their Phase IIA work, and staff encountered no difficulties with them completing the necessary testing and inspections.
