Procurement Contract/Change Order

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Approve award and authorize Executive Director to execute a design contract and associated disbursements with Jacobs Engineering for the Midvalley Connector Project in the amount of $1,759,534.                       

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

Taylorsville City currently has a contract with Jacobs Engineering to complete the design and produce an advertising set of plans for the Midvalley Connector BRT project.  A decision was made to obtain a federal grant for the project and have UTA manage Jacobs Engineering.  Jacobs, under their contract with Taylorsville, completed 60% design plans.  The balance of the contract between Jacobs and Taylorsville was used to update the environmental document.  A new design contract signed between UTA and Jacobs Engineering will progress the design from 60% to an advertising project.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

A designer needs to be procured to progress the project to 100% design and produce an advertising package for construction in 2022. Jacobs has completed 60% of the design for the Midvalley Connector BRT project under a contract with Taylorsville City.  The UTA Sole Source Board approved this contract as a sole source to Jacobs based on their prior work on the project.
