Title/Name/Summary
Professional MEP and Architectural Services - Contract Extension
History
On March 7, 2022, the Village Board approved entering into Master Service Agreements (MSAs) with seven (7) Professional MEP and Architectural Services firms via RFQ 22-004 as listed below:
Cordogan Clark Associates
Farnsworth Group Inc.
Kluber Architects Engineers
Valdes Engineering Company
Tria Architecture
Williams Architects
Robert Juris Associates Architects
Since that time, Public Works has engaged these firms in a wide variety of facility improvement projects, including construction, renovation, energy efficiency, HVAC and demolition projects. On all accounts, Public Works has been impressed with the quality of work with each of these firms and has benefited from the variety of expertise they have to offer.
The Board approved motion for the RFQ included the option to extend individual master services agreements for up to two (2) additional years. As such, Public Works recommends extending the contracts with all firms with the exception of Robert Juris Associates Architects, as the company was recently acquired by another architecture firm with whom the Village has been unable to come to terms.
Financial Impact
Not Applicable.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move approve amending the current contracts with Cordogan Clark Associates, Farnsworth Group Inc, Kluber Architects Engineers, Valdes Engineering Company, Tria Architecture and Williams Architects to exercise the option to extend the existing MSA contracts for two (2) additional years for 2025 and 2026;
AND
Authorize the Village Manager to execute all related documents subject to Village Attorney review.
