SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) #9600-86, for architectural services was solicited on September 17, 2021 and received five (5) statement of qualification (SOQ) packages. Following staff’s review and evaluation of the SOQ packages, all five (5) contractors were selected for awards based on their qualifications.
• Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc.,
• 9six Architects,
• Cedarblade Consulting,
• Kasavan Architects,
• Wald, Ruhnke & Dost Architects, LLP
NMC’s Master Agreements for architectural services are for a five (5) year term. The qualified contractors will be utilized by Natividad Medical Center for contracting out professional architectural services as needed. These Master Agreements enable NMC to have on-call the necessary qualified professionals to assist with both small scale and large scale building improvement projects at NMC, therefore there no imposed limit being set at either $100,000 per project or over $100,000 per project; these agreements cover both scenarios. Inclusion on this Master Agreement does not guarantee award of any projects.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
County Counsel has reviewed and approved the RFQ and the associated Agreement template and each Agreement as to legal form, and the Auditor-Controller has reviewed and approved each Agreement as to payment provisions. The Agreements have also been reviewed and approved by NMC’s Finance Committee and by its Board of Trustees on January 14, 2022.
FINANCING:
The aggregate cost for these Agreements is $5,000,000, of which $1,000,000 was included in the Adopted Budget for FY21-22. Amounts for remaining years of the Agreement will be included in those budgets as appropriate. There is no impact to the General Fund.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STRATEGIC INITIATIVES:
The recommended actions support the Board of Supervisors Strategic Initiatives for Infrastructure, Health & Human Services, and enable NMC to complete essential services related to infrastructure and maintenance needs.
