BACKGROUND:
On February 17, 2022, the City issued Request for Proposals (RFP) No. AIR/220118 for continuing general aviation engineering services.

Each firm was subsequently awarded three-year contracts.
This renewal is for Infrastructure Consulting & Engineering, PLLC.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires competent and qualified firms for its grant-funded projects. Infrastructure Consulting & Engineering, PLLC, has significant experience in airport planning and development. Engineering fees for each project are negotiated on a per-project basis using task work orders, and for FAA-funded projects, undergo independent fee reviews.

Since the inception of the original contract, Infrastructure Consulting & Engineering has completed or is in the process of completing the following task work orders: Design and Inspection of North Development Access Road, Taxiway C Environmental Assessment and Design, Design A12 Infrastructure, Terminal Apron Rehabilitation Design, Design and Inspection RY36 Sealcoat and Striping, and performed various independent fee assessments. Infrastructure Consulting & Engineering has performed well during this original contract term, and staff recommends approval for this next renewal year.

All services will be approved ...
