and Public Works Department has requested that the paving improvements on Greer Street from Samuels
Avenue to Woods Avenue, scheduled as part of the 2022 Bond Year 3, be included in this project due to
proximity.
The project was advertised for bids on March 5 and March 12, 2025, in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. On
May 29, 2025, the following bids were received:

Sewer Capital Projects Fund for the Water & SS REPL 2019 WSM-H project (City Project No. 102780).
The Transportation & Public Works (TPW) Department’s share of this contract is $368,350.00. The paving
funds for this project are included in the 2022 Bond Program. In addition to the contract amount,
$525,014.25 (water: $212,512.75, sewer: $263,878.50, and paving: $48,623.00) is required for project

It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Program (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.
Funding is currently available in the Unspecified All-Funds project within the Water & Sewer Capital
Projects Fund for the purpose of funding the Water & Sanitary Sewer REPL 2019 Water Sewer Main-H
project. Funding is also budgeted in the 2022 Bond Program Fund in the 22 Bond Unspecified project.
Appropriations for the water, sanitary sewer, and paving improvements for the Water and Sanitary Sewer
Replacement Contract 2019 WSM-H project by Fund will consist of the following:

*Numbers rounded for presentation purposes.
The TPW cost included in this project is included in the 2022 Bond Program. The City’s Extendable
Commercial Paper (ECP) (M&C 22-0607; Ordinance 25765-08-2022) provides liquidity to support the
appropriation. Available resources will be used to make any interim progress payments until the debt is
issued. Once debt associated with a project is sold, debt proceeds will reimburse the interim financing
source in accordance with the statement expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part
of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance 25515-05-2022).
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the Unspecified All-Funds project within the
W&S Capital Projects Fund and in the 22 Bond Unspecified project within the 2022 Bond Program Fund
and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances,
funds will be available in the W&S Capital Projects and 2022 Bond Program Funds for the Water and SS
REPL 2019 WSM-H project to support the above recommendations and execution of the construction
contract. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Transportation & Public Works and Water
Departments have the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.

organizations proposed for those portions of the Work where the identity of such

SECTION 00 43 37
VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law
provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors
whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects for
construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident
bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder in
order to obtain a comparable contract in the State which the nonresidenYs principal place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident
bidders must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. o

The Work shall be complete for Final Acceptance within _540_ days after the date when the
Contract Time commences to run, as provided in Paragraph 2.02 of the General Conditions,
plus any extension thereof allowed in accordance with Article 12 of the General Conditions.
4.2 Liquidated Damages
Contractor recognizes that time is of the essence for completion of Milestones, if any, and
to achieve Final Acceptance of the Work and City and the public will suffer from loss of
use if the Work is not completed within the time(s) specified in Paragraph 4.1 above. The
Contractor also recognizes the delays, expense and difficulties involved in proving in a
legal proceeding, the actual loss suffered by the City if the Work is not completed on time.
Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof, Contractor agrees that as liquidated
damages for delay (but not as a penalty), Contractor shall pay City Five Hundred Dollars
($500.00) for each day that expires after the time specified in Paragraph 4.1 for Final
Acceptance until the City issues the Final Letter of Acceptance.

15 D. Purpose
16 The City of Fort Worth (City) is committed to delivering quality, cost-effective
17 infrastructure to its citizens in a timely manner. A key tool to achieve this purpose is a
18 properly structured schedule with accurate updates. This supports effective monitoring
19 of progress and is input to critical decision making by the project manager throughout
20 the life of the project. Data from the updated project schedule is utilized in status
21 reporting to various levels of the City organization and the citizenry.
22
23 This Document complements the City's Standard Agreement to guide the construction
24 contractor (Contractor) in preparing and submitting acceptable schedules for use by the
25 City in project delivery. The expectation is the performance of the work follows the
26 accepted schedule and adhere to the contractual timeline.
27
28 The Contractor will designate a qualified representative (Project Scheduler) responsible
29 for developing and updating the schedule and preparing status reporting as required by
30 the City.

1 Each project is represented by City’s master project schedule that encompasses the
2 entire scope of activities envisioned by the City to properly deliver the work. When the
3 City contracts with a Contractor to perform construction of the Work, the Contractor
4 will develop and maintain a schedule for their scope of work in alignment with the
5 City’s standard schedule requirements as defined herein. The data and information of
6 each such schedule will be leveraged and become integral in the master project
7 schedule as deemed appropriate by the City’s Project Control Specialist and approved
8 by the City’s Project Manager.
9
10 1. Master Project Schedule
11 The master project schedule is a holistic representation of the scheduled activities
12 and milestones for the total project and be Critical Path Method (CPM) based. The
13 City’s Project Manager is accountable for oversight of the development and
14 maintaining a master project schedule for each project. When the City contracts for
15 the design and/or construction of the project, the master project schedule will
16 incorporate elements of the Design and Construction schedules as deemed
17 appropriate by the City’s Project Control Specialist. The assigned City Project
18 Control Specialist creates and maintains the master project schedule in P6 (City’s
19 scheduling software).
20
21 2. Construction Schedule
22 The Contractor is responsible for developing and maintaining a schedule for the
23 scope of the Contractor’s contractual requirements. The Contractor will issue an
24 initial schedule for review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist
25 and the City’s Project Manager as a baseline schedule for Contractor’s scope of
26 work. Contractor will issue current, accurate updates of their schedule (Progress
27 Schedule) to the City at the end of each month throughout the life of their work.
28 B. Schedule Tiers
29 The City has a portfolio of projects that vary widely in size, complexity and content
30 requiring different scheduling to effectively deliver each project. The City uses a
31 “tiered” approach to align the proper schedule with the criteria for each project. The
32 City's Project Manager determines the appropriate schedule tier for each project, and
33 includes that designation and the associated requirements in the Contractor’s scope of
34 work. The following is a summary of the “tiers”.
35
36 1. Tier 1: Small Size and Short Duration Project (design not required)
37 The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. No
38 schedule submittal is required from Contractor. City’s Project Control Specialist
39 acquires any necessary schedule status data or information through discussions with
40 the respective party on an as-needed basis.
41
42 2. Tier 2: Small Size and Short to Medium Duration Project
43 The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The
44 Contractor identifies “start” and “finish” milestone dates on key elements of their
45 work as agreed with the City’s Project Manager at the kickoff of their work effort.
46 The Contractor issues to the City, updates to the “start” and “finish” dates for such
47 milestones at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on the project.

49 3. Tier 3: Medium and Large Size and/or Complex Projects Regardless of Duration

1 The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The
2 Contractor develops a Baseline Schedule and maintains the schedule of their
3 respective scope of work on the project at a level of detail (generally Level 3) and in
4 alignment with the WBS structure in Section 1.4.H as agreed by the Project
5 Manager. The Contractor issues to the City, updates of their respective schedule
6 (Progress Schedule) at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on the
7 project.
8 C. Schedule Types
9 Project delivery for the City utilizes two types of schedules as noted below. The City
10 develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule as a “baseline” schedule and issue
11 monthly updates to the City Project Manager (end of each month) as a “progress”
12 schedule. The Contractor prepares and submits each schedule type to fulfill their
13 contractual requirements.
14
15 1. Baseline Schedule
16 The Contractor develops and submits to the City, an initial schedule for their scope
17 of work in alignment with this specification. Once reviewed and accepted by the
18 City, it becomes the “Baseline” schedule and is the basis against which all progress
19 is measured. The baseline schedule will be updated when there is a change or
20 addition to the scope of work impacting the duration of the work, and only after
21 receipt of a duly authorized change order issued by the City. In the event progress is
22 significantly behind schedule, the City’s Project Manager may authorize an update
23 to the baseline schedule to facilitate a more practical evaluation of progress. An
24 example of a Baseline Schedule is provided in Specification 01 32 16.1
25 Construction Project Schedule Baseline Example.
26
27 2. Progress Schedule
28 The Contractor updates their schedule at the end of each month to represent the
29 progress achieved in the work which includes any impact from authorized changes
30 in the work. The updated schedule must accurately reflect the current status of the
31 work at that point in time and is referred to as the “Progress Schedule”. The City’s
32 Project Manager and Project Control Specialist reviews and accepts each progress
33 schedule. In the event a progress schedule is deemed not acceptable, the
34 unacceptable issues are identified by the City within 5 working days and the
35 Contractor must provide an acceptable progress schedule within 5 working days
36 after receipt of non-acceptance notification. An example of a Progress Schedule is
37 provided in Specification 01 32 16.2 Construction Project Schedule Progress
38 Example.
39 D. City Standard Schedule requirements

2 workweek and accounts for the City’s eight standard holidays (New Years, Martin
3 Luther King, Memorial, Independence, Labor, Thanksgiving, day after Thanksgiving,
4 Christmas). The Contractor will establish a schedule calendar as part of the schedule
5 development process and provide to the Project Control Specialist as part of the basis
6 for their schedule. Variations between the City’s calendar and the Contractor’s
7 calendar must be resolved prior to the City’s acceptance of their Baseline project
8 schedule.
9
10 H. WBS & Milestone Standards for Schedule Development
11 The scope of work to be accomplished by the Contractor is represented in the schedule
12 in the form of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The WBS is the basis for the
13 development of the schedule activities and shall be imbedded and depicted in the
14 schedule.
15
16 The following is a summary of the standards to be followed in preparing and
17 maintaining a schedule for project delivery.
18
19 1. Contractor is required to utilize the City’s WBS structure and respective
20 project type template for “Construction” as shown in Section 1.4.H below.
21 Additional activities may be added to Levels 1 - 4 to accommodate the needs
22 of the organization executing the work. Specifically the Contractor will add
23 activities under WBS XXXXXX.80.83 “Construction Execution” that
24 delineates the activities associated with the various components of the work.
25
26 2. Contractor is required to adhere to the City’s Standard Milestones as shown
27 in Section 1.4.I below. Contractor will include additional milestones
28 representing intermediate deliverables as required to accurately reflect their
29 scope of work.
30
31 I. Schedule Activities
32 Activities are the discrete elements of work that make up the schedule. They will be
33 organized under the umbrella of the WBS. Activity descriptions should adequately
34 describe the activity, and in some cases the extent of the activity. All activities are
35 logically tied with a predecessor and a successor. The only exception to this rule is for
36 “project start” and “project finish” milestones.
37
38 The activity duration is based on the physical amount of work to be performed for the
39 stated activity, with a maximum duration of 20 working days OR a continuous activity
40 in one location. If the work for any one activity exceeds 20 days, break that activity
41 down incrementally to achieve this duration constraint. Any exception to this requires
42 review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist.
43
44 J. Change Orders
45 When a Change Order is issued by the City, the impact is incorporated into the
46 previously accepted baseline schedule as an update, to clearly show impact to the
47 project timeline. The Contractor submits this updated baseline schedule to the City for

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLERS
A. Tolerances:
1. The staked location of any improvement or facility should be as accurate as
practical and necessary. The degree of precision required is dependent on many
factors all of which must remain judgmental. The tolerances listed hereafter are
based on generalities and, under certain circumstances, shall yield to specific
requirements. The surveyor shall assess any situation by review of the overall plans
and through consultation with responsible parties as to the need for specific
tolerances.
a. Earthwork: Grades for earthwork or rough cut should not exceed 0.1 ft. vertical
tolerance. Horizontal alignment for earthwork and rough cut should not exceed
1.0 ft. tolerance.
b. Horizontal alignment on a structure shall be within .0.1ft tolerance.
c. Paving or concrete for streets, curbs, gutters, parking areas, drives, alleys and
walkways shall be located within the confines of the site boundaries and,
occasionally, along a boundary or any other restrictive line. Away from any
restrictive line, these facilities should be staked with an accuracy producing no
more than 0.05ft. tolerance from their specified locations.
d. Underground and overhead utilities, such as sewers, gas, water, telephone and
electric lines, shall be located horizontally within their prescribed areas or
easements. Within assigned areas, these utilities should be staked with an
accuracy producing no more than 0.1 ft tolerance from a specified location.
e. The accuracy required for the vertical location of utilities varies widely. Many
underground utilities require only a minimum cover and a tolerance of 0.1 ft.
should be maintained. Underground and overhead utilities on planned profile,
but not depending on gravity flow for performance, should not exceed 0.1 ft.
tolerance.
B. Surveying instruments shall be kept in close adjustment according to manufacturer’s
specifications or in compliance to standards. The City reserves the right to request a
calibration report at any time and recommends regular maintenance schedule be
performed by a certified technician every 6 months.
1. Field measurements of angles and distances shall be done in such fashion as to
satisfy the closures and tolerances expressed in Part 3.1.A.
2. Vertical locations shall be established from a pre-established benchmark and
checked by closing to a different bench mark on the same datum.
3. Construction survey field work shall correspond to the client’s plans. Irregularities
or conflicts found shall be reported promptly to the City.
4. Revisions, corrections and other pertinent data shall be logged for future reference.

X. As-built Survey
A. Definition and Purpose
The purpose of an as-built survey is to verify the asset was installed in the proper location
and grade. Furthermore, the information gathered will be used to supplement the City’s GIS
data and must be in the proper format when submitted. See section IV.
As-built survey should include the following (additional items may be requested):
Manholes
Top of pipe elevations every 250 feet
Horizontal and vertical points of inflection, curvature, etc. (All Fittings)
Cathodic protection test stations
Sampling stations
Meter boxes/vaults (All sizes)
Fire lines
Fire hydrants
Gate valves (rim and top of nut)
Plugs, stub-outs, dead-end lines
Air Release valves (Manhole rim and vent pipe)
Blow off valves (Manhole rim and valve lid)
Pressure plane valves
Cleaning wyes
Clean outs
Casing pipe (each end)
Inverts of pipes
Turbo Meters

B. Example Deliverable
A hand written red line by the field surveyor is acceptable in most cases. This should be
a copy of the plans with the point number noted by each asset. If the asset is missing,
then the surveyor should write “NOT FOUND” to notify the City.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1.If I am Business Equity Firm, can I count my performance of the bid?
Answer: A Business Equity Prime Contractor can count its self-performance towards meeting the
Business Equity Goal for the assigned North American Industry Classification System (NAICS)
commodity codes on its Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) or Women Business Enterprise (WBE)
certification.
2.What if I am a Business Equity Firm, but I am unable to self perform all work or provide all of the
goods under the bid, can I count my performance under the Bid?
Answer: If the Business Equity Prime cannot self-perform all of the work, it will be accountable for
subcontracting with certified firms to meet the overall goal. Business Equity Firms that qualify under
the “Significant Business Presence” definition may count in the Program upon approval of DVIN-BE.
3.This bid does not have a set amount that the City will purchase from the Awarded Bidder, how
do I complete the form?
Answers:
a. For a Low Bid procurement, the lowest bidder shall submit a Utilization Plan no later than 2:00 PM
on the third business day after bids are opened detailing all Subcontractors the Contractor intends
to utilize in its performance of a Contract. Contractors that are Business Equity Firms may count
their self-performed services towards meeting a Business Equity Goal.
b.For a Best Value or Multi-award procurement, all bidders who wish to be considered for
evaluation scoring shall submit a Utilization Plan by 2:00 PM on the third business day after the

bids are opened detailing all Subcontractors the Contractor intends to utilize in its performance of
a Contract. Contractors that are Business Equity Firms may count their self-performed services

c.For RPP/RFQ's where pricing is not included a preliminary utilization plan, or an acknowledgment
of the City's goal must be noted on your proposal. Once pricing has been established an updated
utilization plan with letter of intent(s) will be required.
d. For CMAR/Design Build, a goal will be placed on the design portion which will need a utilization
plan and letter or intent(s), or good faith effort with supporting documentation. For the construction
portion where pricing is not included a preliminary utilization plan or an acknowledgment
of the City's goal must be noted on your proposal. Once pricing has been established an updated
utilization plan with letter of intent(s) will be required.
e.Non-compliance. If the lowest bidder for a low bid procurement or any bidder for a Best Value
procurement does not timely submit its Utilization Plan with the required documents, that bidder
will be deemed Non-Responsive. For a low bid procurement, the City will notify the next lowest
bidder who shall then submit a Utilization Plan with required documents no later than 2:00 PM on
the third business day after the bidder receives notification. This process will be followed until a

Failure to complete this form, in its entirety, and received by the Purchasing Division no later than 2:00 p.m. on the third City business day after bid opening, exclusive of bid opening date,

bid or to the Developer if privately bid.
The undersigned Prime/Offeror agrees to enter into a formal agreement with the Business Equity firm(s) listed in this utilization schedule, conditioned upon execution of a contract with the
City of Fort Worth (Exception: Developer projects). The intentional and/or knowing misrepresentation of facts is grounds for consideration of disqualification and will result in the bid being
considered non-responsive to bid specifications.
Business Equity firms listed toward meeting the project goal must be located in the City's marketplace at the time of bid or the business has a Significant Business Presence in the
Marketplace. The marketplace is the City of Fort Worth including portions of Denton, Parker, Wise, and all of Tarrant, Dallas, and Johnson counties.

North Central Texas Regional Certification Agency (NCTRCA), Dallas/Fort Worth Minority Supplier Development Council (D/FW MSDC) and Women's Business Council-Southwest
(WBCS).
If hauling services are utilized, the Prime/Offeror will be given credit as long as the Business Equity firm listed owns and operates at least one fully licensed and operational truck to be
used on the contract. The Business Equity firms may lease trucks from another Business Equity firm, including Business Equity owner-operated, and receive full Business Equity
credit. The Business Equity firm may lease trucks from non-Business Equity firms, including owner-operated, but will only receive credit for the fees and commissions earned by the
Business Equity as outlined in the lease agreement.
Federally-funded Projects (ONLY), Counting DBE Participation: If materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, count 100 percent of the cost of the materials or
supplies towards the goal. If the materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer, count 60 percent of the cost of the materials and supplies toward the DBE goal. When
materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE neither a manufacturer nor a regular dealer, count the entire amount of fees or commissions charged for assistance in the
procurement of the materials and supplies or fees or transportation charges for the delivery of the materials or supplies delivered to the job site. In all cases, the Prime/Offeror is
responsible to identify the amounts to be used toward the committed DBE goal. Note: For DBE Goals, 60% of the services count towards the goal.

regardless of status; i.e., Business Equity firms and non-Business Equity firms. Prime/Offerors must identify by tier level all subcontractors/suppliers. Tier: means the level of
subcontracting below the Prime/Offeror i.e. a direct payment from the Prime/Offeror to a subcontractor is considered 1st tier, a payment by a subcontractor to its supplier is considered
2nd tier. Business Equity firms are to be listed before non-Business Equity firms. The Prime/Offeror is responsible to provide proof of payment of all tiered sub-contractors/suppliers
identified as a Business Equity firm and counting those dollars towards meeting the contract committed goal.
Certified Business Equity Prime/Offeror Contractors counting their self-performance towards meeting the contract goal, must be certified within those NAICS commodity codes with a
certifying agency acceptable by the City of Fort Worth. Certified Business Equity Prime/Offeror counting self-performing services towards the goal, the service(s) to be performed
should be listed first on the Utilization form.
