Title/Name/Summary
A/E Services - OPHFC Pool Renovation Project
History
In 2022, the Public Works Department established Master Service Agreements (MSAs) for Professional MEP and Architectural Services with seven (7) firms based on RFQ 22-004. The MSAs allow the Village to request proposals from these pre-qualified firms for facility improvement projects from 2022-2024, with the option to extend any or all of those contracts for an additional two (2) years. The MSA with Robert Juris Associates Architects expired at the end of 2023.
Three (3) of these pre-qualified firms (Tria Architecture, Williams Architects, and Farnsworth Group) are also pre-qualified by the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) to provide engineering services for aquatic facility projects. Cordogan Clark Associates also works on aquatic projects in Illinois via a sub-consultant.

Priority projects include pool filtration, pump, heater, ejector pump, chemical control systems, pool concrete resurfacing, tile, lighting, and paint restorations. The Village’s 5-Year Capital Plan includes funding for the design of a part of this work in 2024, and a portion of the construction in 2025.
In order to prepare for the renovation associated with these priority projects, as well as better understand the full cost associated with the work, the Public Works Department and Power Wellness staff met with representatives from the pre-qualified A/E firms to discuss the OPHFC Pool Renovation Project on March 18, 2024. Cordogan Clark Associates also attended the meeting.
The A/E scope of work includes design development, cost estimating, project phasing and logistics, IDPH permitting, bid documents and bidding assistance. Cost estimating would be ready before the FY2025 budget period...
