DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND On February 10, 2016, the City of Orange entered into an agreement with the Regents of the University of California Irvine Medical Center (UCIMC) to complete the final water master metering of the UCIMC main campus (Agreement No. 6301). As part of that agreement, UCIMC agreed to provide $2,000,000 to cover the cost of the required metering and associated water improvements in exchange for the City designing and constructing the improvements along with the relinquishing of an unused on -site water tank to UCIMC. The initial step to begin the project is to hire a qualified consultant to develop the plans, specifications and cost estimate for the project. To accomplish that task, the Water Division solicited proposals from qualified firms familiar with this type of work. The work required consists of conducting a topographic survey of the site, preparing construction plans and specifications, developing easement documents, conducting structural calculations, developing required CEQA documents, and providing cost estimates for the project. Proposals were solicited from six qualified engineering firms that specialize in providing the desired design and engineering services. Upon review of the project and specific requirements, three firms declined to submit a proposal due to concerns with specific environmental document challenges and/or concerns with some of the specialized structural requirements needed for the project. Two other firms were unable to submit a proposal due to scheduling conflicts. Stantec Consultant Services Inc. was the only firm that submitted a proposal. The proposal was carefully reviewed and evaluated independently by the review panel based on team qualifications, professional experience, detail of proposal, and project schedule. After reviewing the proposal, staff felt comfortable and confident with Stantec Consultant Services Inc. proposal and staff was able to successfully negotiate with Stantec to lower its total fee. Stantec is an experienced engineering firm that has successfully worked with the City on projects in the past, the most recent project being the design and construction of the Marywood Pump Station project.
