DISCUSSION:
On December 11, 2007, staff provided a presentation to the Council outlining the need and purpose for
Integrated Program Management (IPM) within the City. The City expects continued unprecedented growth
in capital project needs that are expected to reach $1.8 billion over the next five years. The challenge faced
by the City is how best to manage the overall delivery of these projects.
Staff recommended that the City engage the services of an engineering consultant to assist in the re-
engineering of the City's capital project delivery system and provide additional staff support to deliver
projects. On December 18, 2007, (M&C C-22596) the City Council authorized the execution of a
professional services agreement in the amount of $3,844,653.00 with CH2MHill to assist the City in
implementing Phase 1 of the four-phase IPM initiative. On October 21, 2008, staff and CH2MHill
representatives provided the Council with an overview of Phase 1 assessment findings and
recommendations for implementation during Phase 2 of the IPM program. It is anticipated that Phase 2 will
take approximately 11 months to complete.
Phase 2 services to be provided by CH2MHill will focus on:
1. The implementation and refinement of process and organizational improvements identified during the
Phase 1 assessment process;
2. Training of key staff involved in project delivery throughout the City;

3. Integration of project financial and schedule data to facilitate project/program reporting;
4. Building project delivery and contractor capacity/participation opportunities; and
5. Improving the public communication process through the use of project reporting tools and use of
regularly updated project schedules.
By implementing IPM, the City expects to significantly increase its capacity to design and construct its
capital projects. In addition, it is anticipated that there will be significant cost savings achieved through the
delivery of projects earlier and through efficiency gained through streamlining and standardization of project
delivery approaches across the City.
The professional services provided by CH2MHill will be on an hourly basis and multiplier not to exceed a
cost of $4,321,000.00.
CH2MHill is in compliance with the City's MIWBE Ordinance by committing to 39 percent
M/WBE participation. The City's goal on the project is 28 percent.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon acceptance of the above
recommendations, funds will be available in the current operating funds of the Storm Water Operating Fund,
the Water and Sewer Operating Fund, and in the current capital funds of the 2007 Critical Capital Projects
Fund and the Park Gas Well Leases Fund.
