DISCUSSION: The Water Department approached the Purchasing Division to secure an agreement for turnkey wastewater bypass pumping located at various Water and Wastewater facilities. The City of Fort Worth (City) is one of the nation's fastest -growing metroplexes and provides service to approximately 1.5 million customers. The City is responsible for maintaining approximately 4,000 linear miles of wastewater collection mains. With a system of this size, there are times when emergency bypasses of the collection system are required. The City invited firms (Vendor) to participate in this Request for Proposal (RFP) to establish an annual agreement to furnish all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, and expertise necessary to design, install, operate, maintain, and demobilize temporary bypass pumping systems to divert wastewater flow around active construction, repair, or maintenance work areas within the City of Fort Worth's sanitary sewer collection system. Purchasing Staff issued RFP Number 26-0023. The RFP consisted of detailed specifications describing the responsibilities and requirements to provide these services. The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on January 21, 2026, January 28, 2026, February 4, 2026, February 11, 2026, February 18, 2026, and February 25, 2026. The City received two (2) responses. An evaluation panel consisting of representatives from the Water and Aviation Department reviewed and scored the submittal using Best Value Criteria. The individual scores were averaged for each of the criteria, and the final scores are listed in the table below. FProposers F Evaluation Factors Fa. b. c. d. e. Total 0Rents LLC I�" -Synergy d.b.a.

Specific qualifications of key personnel intended to be assigned to the project e. Cost After evaluation, the panel concluded that Turnkey Pump Services, LLC and Opifex-Synergy dba Synergy Rents LLC presented the best value to the City. Therefore, the panel recommends that City Council authorize the execution of an agreement with Turnkey Pump Services, LLC, and Opifex- Synergy d.b.a. Synergy Rents LLC. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of services would be purchased. FUNDING: The maximum annual amount allowed under this agreement is $2,000,000.00; however, the actual amount used will be based on the needs of the department and available budget. Funding is budgeted in the General Operating & Maintenance category in the Water & Sewer Fund for the Water Department. AGREEMENT TERMS: Upon City Council approval, this agreement shall begin upon execution and shall expire one year from that date. RENEWAL TERMS: This Agreement may be renewed at the City's option for up to four additional, one-year renewal options in a combined amount up to $2,000,000.00 for a one-year initial term, and authorize four one-year renewal options for the same amount for the Water Department. This action does not require City Council approval, provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal terms. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated. SMALL BUSINESS: In accordance with the City's Small Business Ordinance, the City has established a 30\% Small Business goal for this solicitation/contract. No vendor met the criteria to achieve this goal. Therefore, the responses were?evaluated based on the remaining Best Value Criteria. This will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously appropriated, in the Water & Sewer Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the agreement.
