Testing and Engineering Services with AESCO, Inc., QMU Geotechnical, Inc., Leighton

Statement of Issue:
The Public Works Department requires professional materials testing, inspection, and engineering
services on an on-call or as needed basis to support staff for construction of capital improvement
projects.
Financial Impact:
The City's adopted FY 2021/22 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget totals $39.3 million for
approved projects citywide. Each approved CIP project has a budget containing sufficient funding for
design, environmental, engineering, construction, project management and other required costs. The
five (5) recommended materials testing contracts, totaling $3.0 million, will be funded within each
project's individual CIP budget, as needed. As such, no additional funding is required by this action.
Recommended Action:
A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $600,000 "Professional Services
Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and AESCO, Inc., for On-Call Material Testing and
Engineering Services;" and,
B)_Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $600,000 "Professional Services

Testing and Engineering Services;" and,
C) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute $600,000 "Professional Services

Alternative Action(s):
Do not authorize the contracts and direct staff with an alternate action. Construction of budgeted
Capital Projects could be delayed until new contracts are approved.
Analysis:
On July 12, 2021, the City advertised a Request for Proposal ("RFP") for On-Call Construction
Material Testing Services. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03
of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Twenty (20) proposals were received for On-Call
Construction Material Testing Services. In accordance with qualifications-based selected
procurement per the Federal "Brooks Act," State SB 419, and the City of Huntington Beach Municipal
Code Section 3.03 "Professional Services," the Public Works Department established a review board.
Each firm stated their engineering category of expertise with their proposal. Proposals were then
evaluated and ranked by a review board established by the Public Works Department. The top five
(5) firms were selected in each category to increase opportunity for competitive proposals for future
projects from qualified on-call consultants.
The five (5) contracts recommended in this request for council action (RCA) are for support staff for
the construction of a wide variety of non-State/Federally-funded capital improvement projects. These
services have historically been utilized to supplement City staff to meet annual CIP goals, as an
extension of staff, and/or to provide required expertise for unique projects. It is anticipated that these
services will be required based on past years. Each project is evaluated on a case by case basis to
determine if these as-needed contract services are necessary.
The City's Capital Improvement Program ("CIP") in Fiscal Year 2021122 totals $39.3 million in new
projects. Typical design and construction support cost from the use of consultants on a CIP project
can vary between ten to twenty percent (10-20%) of total costs for a CIP project. Therefore, it is
practical to conservatively assume minimum annual construction consultant costs would be around
$3 million to the City for total CIP projects or approximately $9 million over the next three (3) years.
Professional construction materials testing and engineering services are typically required for most
CIP projects, including streets and transportation, water, sewer, stormwater, parks and beaches, and
facility improvement projects. Therefore, these consultants were selected to meet projected
workload over the next three years with a total contract limit of $3 million. The proposed contract
amounts are a not-to-exceed amount for a three-year term, with no guarantee of work. Funding for
any and all of these contract services is only through City Council authorization in the budget
approval process.

UNDERSTANDING AND i\IETIIODOLOGY SECTION
Based on our review of the referenced RFP and our experience providing on-call services to
numerous public agencics. we anticipate services required may include:
• Construction Observations
• Inspcction. including Gcotechnical and Registered Special Inspection
• Field \Materials Testing
• Laboratory Materials Testing
• Geotechnical or Pavement Design/Engineering During Construction
• Emergency Response (24/7)
Below is a discussion of ho\y GMU will provide these services to the City that will best benefit
the City.
APPROACH
Our approach to the execution, implementation. and managcment of all of our services has been
