DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the execution of a construction contract with RJM Contractors, Inc in
the amount not to exceed $9,134,687.00 including the owner's construction allowance, for the new Fire Station 43.
The 2014 Bond Program allocated $4,700,000.00 for the design and construction of the new Fire Station 43. The start of this project was delayed
allowing development of the area to progress. A site was selected and purchased (M&C L-16171), Dec 11, 2018, however unforeseen water
utility issues made the initial site unusable for a fire station. A temporary fire station was established at Cook Children's Pediatrics Walsh
Ranch, 13340 Highland Hills Drive (M&C 21-0759), Dec 11, 2018. The City's one-story, prototype design was adapted for a site on Walsh Ranch
Parkway, north of Interstate Highway 30, As part of obtaining the land, certain improvements to Walsh Ranch Parkway were included in the project
(M&C 22-0978), Nov 29, 2022.
The design portion of the project was authorized with Mayor and Council Communication (M&C C-28651), April 3, 2018. Construction
documents were completed and submitted for advertisement in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on April 12, and April 20, 2023. The City of Fort
Worth received four bids from general contractors on May 11, 2023. The four firms were:
• Azteca Enterprises, LLC
• Batson -Cook Company
• RJM Contractors, Inc.
• Modem Contractors, Inc.
Three of the four firms provided the required "Post Proposal -Pre Award Submittals" to be further evaluated by the City and the Design Architect. A
selection team composed of members of the Fire Department, Property Management Department, RPGA Design Group, and the Diversity &
Inclusion Department, reviewed the proposals and evaluated them for the best value based on the criteria set forth in the Request for Proposal.
Based on this evaluation, the selection team recommends award of the construction contract to RJM Contractors, Inc.
