City of San Bernardino — Request for Council Action
Staff Report
Subject:
Resolution approving services agreements with Willdan, Caltrop Engineering Corporation, and
Lim and Nascimento Engineering Corporation for Consultant Inspection Services for Capital
Improvement Projects (CIP).
Background:
The Public Works Division of the Development Services Department is responsible for
administering the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP). This program, in general, consists
of the design and construction of roads, bridges, buildings, grading, drainage, landscaping, traffic
signals, handicap ramps, etc. Normally, construction inspection for CIP projects is provided by
in-house Construction Inspectors. A total of 5 Construction Inspectors are currently assigned to
the Public Works Division; however, two of the inspectors are primarily assigned to
development permit inspection, leaving only three inspectors to cover the CIP construction
program.
The current activity associated with the City's CIP Program fluctuates dramatically during the
course of the year. Procuring consultant inspection services will provide the flexibility necessary
to help meet the accelerated goals of the Mayor and Common Council this year without hiring
additional permanent inspection staff or suffering reductions in quality control of projects.
The Development Services Department prepared specifications for Consultant Inspection
Services for Capital Improvement Projects (CIP). The Purchasing Division sent out notices
inviting bids for an annual contract for provision of such services per RFP No. F-01-44.
The request for proposals was sent to eight (8) local and area engineering firms and advertised in
the San Bernardino County Sun newspaper, a copy was sent to the San Bernardino Area
Chamber of Commerce, and it was posted on the City's web site. Proposals were submitted by
the following firms:
Cal-West Consultants, Grand Terrace
Caltrop, Upland
CPIS Corporation,Newport Beach
Hernandez, Kroone & Associates, San Bernardino
Kal Kishnar Consulting, Los Angeles
Lim &Nascimento, San Bernardino
Psomas, Riverside
Willdan, San Bernardino
Three members of the Public Works Staff reviewed the proposals with weighted consideration
given in the following areas: capabilities of the firm, qualifications and experience of the firm,
reasonableness of cost and price for services rendered, and completeness of the response. Based
on that assessment, three firms were selected which are deemed to have a greater degree of
accessibility when services are needed. Willdan, Caltrop Engineering Corporation, and Lim &
Nascimento Engineering Corporation were selected based on the average of their overall scores
in the above areas.

City of San Bernardino — Request for Council Action
Staff Report - continued
After the Agreements are fully executed, Public Works Staff will request that Annual Purchase
Orders totaling $90,000 be issued to the selected firms. It is Staff's intent that the amount be
divided equally among the three firms over the course of the year. However, depending on needs
at the time of issuance of the purchase orders, the amount may divide somewhat differently in
the short term.
Financial Impact:
Funds for Consultant Inspection Services for Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) are available
through each individual project and cost of services charged back to that particular Capital
Improvement Project's budget through the work order number. Therefore, for the majority of
services rendered,the Development Services Department budget will not be impacted.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Mayor and Common Council authorize the Purchasing Manager to
issue Annual Purchase Orders totaling $90,000 in aggregate to Willdan, Caltrop Engineering
Corporation, and Lim And Nascimento Engineering Corporation, with provisions for two one-
year renewals.
