FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 19, 2019
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF DALLAS ROAD CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT,
INSPECTION AND RECORD KEEPING CONTRACT
RECOMMENDATION: Consider a contract for the Dallas Road construction management,
inspection and record keeping to Neo Construction Services, LLC.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funding is available in 178 Capital Projects Street Fund in an amount not
to exceed $252,000.
BACKGROUND: On August 20, 2019, Council awarded the Dallas Road Corridor/Cotton
Belt Trail project to the Fain Group, Inc..Additionally, staff requested to
enter into a construction management, inspection and materials testing
agreement with SAM Construction Services, LLC in an amount not to
exceed $500,000.
Since that time, staff has determined that an individual inspector as a staff
extension would be a more cost-effective and flexible solution. As such,
staff proposed to retain the services of Neo Construction Inspection, LLC
to provide construction management, inspection and record keeping
services to the City to meet federal reporting requirements. Mr. Begovic,
the owner of Neo Construction Services, LLC, has over 15 years
experience as a TxDOT construction inspector, record keeper and
construction auditor. All material testing efforts will be performed through
an existing on-call contract with Terracon Consultants, Inc. Staff
anticipates that the total cost of the inspection and materials testing will
now be approximately$400,000, saving $100,000.
Staff recommends approval.
