Change Order: On-Call Infrastructure Maintenance Contract Task Order #22-59 - Materials Procurement for Replacement of Turnouts at the Sugar Interlocking, 5300 South, 5400 South, and the Murray Siding (Stacy Witbeck, Inc)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve task order #22-59 to the on-call infrastructure maintenance contract and authorize the Executive Director to execute the task order and associated disbursements with Stacy and Witbeck in the amount of $990,506.
BACKGROUND:
In October 2020, UTA released a request for procurement (RFP) for an on-call maintenance contractor focused specifically on infrastructure assets. Bids were received and evaluated, and Stacy and Witbeck Inc. was selected as the winner based on overall scoring using the best value format. The UTA Board of Trustees approved the contract and authorized the Executive Director to execute the contract with Stacy and Witbeck Inc. on January 27, 2021. This contract is for three-years with two one-year options.
UTA’s rail infrastructure is at an age where yearly rehabilitations and replacements need to occur to maintain the infrastructure in a state of good repair. These projects typically address three concerns:
1) Passenger ride quality
2) Automobile cross-traffic ride quality
3) Potential stray current issues
To maintain UTA’s rail lines, the agency needs to replace or rehabilitate turnouts as they age.
DISCUSSION:
UTA Staff is requesting approval of task order #22-59 with Stacy and Witbeck, Inc. to procure materials to rehabilitate turnouts at the Sugar Interlocking, 5300 South, 5400 South, and the Murray Siding. The 5300/5400 South turnouts will have the switches power up and trackwork replaced. The powered switches will help our Operations team run more efficiently. The Sugar turnout will have the switch and trackwork replaced. The useful life of a turnout is approximately 20 years. The Task Order has been determined to be within the scope of the master Task Ordering Agreement. The Task Order pricing has been determined to be fair and reasonable based on both a UTA Independent Cost Estimate and performance of a Price Analysis.
