DISCUSSION:
i
On November 10,2020,the Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)20-0833,the City Council authorized the execution of an agreement with
Arcadis U.S., Inc.in the amount of$548,797.00 for the preparation of Engineering, Performance and Contractual Standards and Specifications to
be incorporated into a Request for Proposals for the Replacement of the Existing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System(SCADA)for
the Water Department.
Amendment No. 1 consists of the work to transition the project procurement format from a design build solicitation to competitive sealed
proposals,which will include both Request for Qualifications(RFQ)and Request for Proposals(RFP)as part of a two-step procurement process.
The amendment will also allow for the recommendation of appropriate division of work,the modification and conformance of contract documents,
analysis of existing water treatment plant process programmable logic controllers(PLCs), responding to requests for information during the
procurement process,and providing technical analysis and recommendations during the evaluation of vendor submittals.Additionally, requesting
funding appropriation to cover the original contract amount of$548,797.00 with the Water&Sewer Revenue Bonds Series 2021 Fund so the
entire contract is being paid by the same funding source.
The Water Department utilizes a SCADA system to monitor and control the water treatment and distribution facilities,along with remotely located
sanitary sewer lift stations. The existing SCADA system, initially installed in 1987,utilizes proprietary components,that are no longer
manufactured and in need of replacement.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its CIP plan throughout the Fiscal Year, instead of within the annual budget ordinance,as
projects commence,additional funding needs are identified,and to comply with bond covenants.The actions in the M&C will appropriate funds in
support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program,as follows:
