AGENDA ITEM:
Summary of RFP NO. 2021/2022-A03
Recommended Selection of the Water/Wastewater Infrastructure General Construction Services
RFP No. 2021/2022-A03.
Date: February 1, 2022
BACKGROUND:
As a growing utility, Clay County Utility Authority (CCUA) frequently needs construction
services both for new capital infrastructure, and for repair and replacement (R&R) of existing
facilities. The typical cycle time to bid, award and issue a notice to proceed (NTP) for a
construction contractor is four to six months. The process is labor intensive for CCUA and requires
resources from several departments including the procurement department. This extended
timeframe for procuring a contractor can delay critical project work,especially in a growing utility
such as CCUA.
a One way to ensure transparency and competition while also reducing the procurement time and
g improving efficiency is to competitively prequalify contractors for this type of work, and then to
.2 conduct an expedited low bid submittal process. In June 2021,the Board of Supervisors provided
3 approval for staff to proceed with preparation of documents for a Request for Proposal (RFP)
renabling CCUA to enter into continuing contracts with a minimum of four (4) utility contractors
limited to projects that are less than $4 million in construction costs.
Staff worked with assistance from Ardurra Engineering(formerly Constantine)to develop a broad-
based RFP with a standard construction contract with balanced risk terms.The contract terms allow
for CCUA to terminate an Agreement with any Contractor if they do not perform or are non-
responsive. This RFP was focused on attracting contractors experienced in water and wastewater
utility work,especially plant work. CCUA selected$4 million as the typical maximum for contract
work to be performed using these contracts. All construction projects reasonably expected to be
greater than$4 million would be publicly advertised and procured outside of these contracts.
Staff advertised the above-referenced project on CCUA's Bonfire Procurement Platform to all
qualified contractors on November 22, 2021.
EVALUATION:
On January 12, 2022, staff received six (6) responses to the RFP, which were subsequently
evaluated and scored by the project evaluation committee. Listed below is the ranked list of the
overall proposals.

Ranked List
Wharton Smith, Inc. 92.33
R2T, Inc. 88.87
Petticoat-Schmitt Civil Contractors, Inc. 83.41
PBM Constructors, Inc. 77.80
Florida Design Contractors, Inc. 70.10
Golf Coast Underground, LLC. 56.00
BUDGET AND SCHEDULE IMPACT:
These contracts will be used to seek lowest bids more efficiently for new construction and R&R
projects that are $4 million or less in value. Project costs will be charged against the Capital
Improvement Program budget line item as they are executed and are not expected to have a
significant impact on the construction cost itself.
Having these contracts in place is expected to reduce procurement costs by $15,000 to $20,000
depending upon project complexity. Of equal interest is the reduction in cycle time to one to two
months from the typical cycle time of four to six months to complete these procurements and
begin work.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff respectfully recommends the Board of Supervisors approve the award of four(4) continuing
construction service contracts to the highest ranking contractors, Wharton-Smith, Inc., R2T, Inc,
Petticoat-Schmitt Civil Contractors, Inc., and PBM Constructors, Inc. The initial term of the
contracts will be for three (3) years. The term of the contracts may be renewed for up to two (2)
additional one (1) year periods, contingent upon satisfactory performance by the Contractor,
mutual agreement by both parties, and the availability of funds.
