Services
AGENDA TITLE
Amendments to Agreements with AKM Consulting Engineers, Anser Advisory
Management, LLC, Ardurra Group, Inc., Cannon, and Willdan Engineering for On -Call
Construction Management and Inspection Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute the first amendment to the standard agreements
with AKM Consulting Engineers, Anser Advisory Management, LLC, Ardurra Group,
Inc., Cannon, and Willdan Engineering to provide on -call construction management and
inspection services and increase the contract amount by $3,000,000 for a total amount
not to exceed $6,000,000, for the remaining term (Agreement No. A-2025-XXX).
GOVERNMENT CODE 484308 APPLIES: Yes
DISCUSSION
On July 18, 2023, the Public Works Agency (PWA) released Request for Proposals
(RFP) No. 23-122 to select five consultants to provide on -call construction management
and inspection services on an as -needed or on -call basis for the City of Santa Ana's
PWA Construction Services Section. These contracts are a critical resource for
managing fluctuating workloads and varying demands for inspection and contract
management services across the City. The variable nature of construction projects often
results in periods of high activity that require additional staffing, including inspectors and
project managers. Utilizing on -call contractors allows the City to bring in skilled
personnel on an as -needed basis to address workload surges. This flexible service
delivery model ensures that we are able to meet increased demands.
By utilizing these contracts, staff can better control costs while maintaining the quality
and efficiency of their work during periods of high demand, ultimately benefitting both
the City's budget and the timely completion of essential projects. Staff recommends the
approval of this first amendment to increase the shared total aggregate amount of the
agreement to $6,000,000 for the remainder of the contract term (Exhibit 1-5).

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with the action.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact at this time. Before utilizing on -call services, Public Works
Agency (PWA) staff must obtain approval from the Finance and Management Services
Agency (FMSA) by submitting a Notice to Proceed Request. This request must specify
the funding source and the required dollar amount. FMSA will verify that the necessary
funds are encumbered and available within the authorization and aggregate limits of
these agreements. Once approved, PWA will issue a Notice to Proceed detailing the
specific scope and maximum expenditure for the task.
