BACKGROUND:
The Department of Public Works (DPW) is responsible for maintaining the operation and appearance of 56 City-owned facilities including the Municipal Center, Police Station, Public Works Service Center, Electric Service Center, 10 fire stations, 16 electrical substations, 2 commuter rail train stations and 4 parking decks. The City uses the services of a multi-disciplinary architectural and engineering (A&E) firm with expertise in general building, concrete, masonry, aggregate, steel, paving, mechanical, electrical, and specialty construction. The A&E consultant is responsible for the development, design, owner representation, bidding assistance, and project management of small to mid-sized planned and ad hoc projects for the City.

The goal of the procurement was to partner with one or more vendors to provide a full range of services, including but not limited to architectural, civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering services to provide a safe, clean and productive work environment for city employees and the visiting public.
