DISCUSSION: The Transportation and Public Works Department solicited firms to provide public works infrastructure construction inspectors to inspect various City projects as a supplement to Staff in order to accommodate peak periods of construction. A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was published for these services in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram in December 2024. On January 9, 2025, the Department received Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) for professional services from 17 firms to provide infrastructure construction inspection services. Each firm was evaluated based upon pre -established selection criteria including qualification of personnel, response and performance. An inter -departmental committee selected the most qualified firms and recommends the following firms for contract approval: 1836 Engineering, LLC; Atlas Technical Consultants, LLC; Dunaway Associates, LLC; Foster CM Group, Inc.; Halff Associates, Inc.; Lamb -Star Engineering, L.P.; Lina T. Ramey and Associates, Inc.; Lochmuellar Group, Inc. DBA Multatech Engineering, Inc.; Raba Kistner, Inc.; RS&H, Inc.; TranSystems Corporation dba Transystems Corporation Consultants; and VRX, Inc. Based on the current workload level, the Transportation and Public Works Department projects that approximately $1.5 billion of infrastructure construction will be inspected over the next five years which includes developer -led infrastructure projects. Based on current staffing levels, staff anticipates that approximately $60 million will be extended for contracted infrastructure construction inspection services over the same period. These agreements will not guarantee any specific amount of work or payment to any firm. As inspection work is needed for a project, a work order will be issued along with the funding for specific work being identified and committed at that time. Funding for the construction inspection services may be provided through various capital project funding sources, including City Bond Programs. These contracts will serve current and future capital projects as -needed, and a funds availability verification will be performed by Transportation & Public Works Contract Compliance Managers prior to each assignment. http://apps.cfwnet.org/councll_packet/mc review. asp?ID=3 3 169&councildate=4/8/202 5 1 /9/2026 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 The term of each contract is upon the expenditure of funds, each with four renewal options.
