DISCUSSION:
In order to manage the solid waste generated from the City's dynamic growth, the City must devise a
comprehensive, integrated plan to ensure that the material handling and resource recovery of the solid
waste collected from all sectors - residential and industrial, commercial and institutional - is done in a
logical, manageable and cost-efficient manner that takes into account the City's sustainability needs.
The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on February 5, 2014, requesting a consultant to assist with
6
the procurement of a resource recovery facility and associated services such as ways to maximize
revenues from recycling, further reduce the volume of solid waste sent to the City's landfill, optimize j
operations by reducing the hauling mileage and possibly create local jobs.
The proposals were reviewed by an evaluation committee consisting of staff from the Code Compliance
Department, the Water Department and the Transportation and Public Works Department. The committee
ranked the proposals based on past experience with developing similar procurements, experience j
assisting with the procurement of similar facilities and services for other municipalities in Texas,
qualifications and roles of key personnel, thoroughness and quality of response to scope of work and I
costs of consulting services. The evaluation committee determined that Burns & McDonnell Engineering
Company, Inc., offers the best overall solution to the City. f
i
PRICE ANALYSIS - The procurement services provided under the previous contract have �
changed. Therefore, there is no direct relationship to allow comparison of current pricing to the previous
contract. Staff reviewed the prices and determined the prices to be fair and reasonable.
ADVERTISEMENT -This RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram every Wednesday starting i
February 5, 2014 through March 5, 2014. Thirty-seven vendors were solicited from the purchasing

database; three responses were received.
M/VVBE OFFICE -A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting was requested by the Purchasing
Division and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the
purchase of goods or service is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are
negligible. j
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER -An administrative change order or increase may be made by the
City Manager in the amount of up to $32,875.00 and does not require specific City Council approval as i
long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
I
AGREEMENT TERMS - Upon City Council approval, this Agreement shall begin on June 11, 2014 and
end on June 10, 2015.
