Helwig, City Manager, and Dolonna Mecum, City Clerk, be and are hereby authorized and directed to execute an agreement on behalf of the City of Elgin with Testing Service Corporation for quality control material testing on infrastructure improvements, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof by reference. s/ George VanDeVoorde George VanDeVoorde, Mayor Presented: July 13, 1994 Adopted: July 13, 1994 Omnibus Vote: Yeas 5 Nays 0 Attest: s/ Dolonna Mecum Dolonna Mecum, City Clerk a - 111 ,,t °.fr Agenda Item No. • June 16, 1994 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Richard B. Helwig, City Manager SUBJECT: Testing Service Agreement with Testing Service Corporation (TSC) for various City projects . PURPOSE This memorandum will provide the Mayor and City Council with information to consider approving the subject agreement. BACKGROUND Since materials testing costs generally exceed $5,000 in any given year, we have obtained proposals for testing services . On March 30, 1994, the City sent out requests for proposals to six testing firms . Five proposals were received and reviewed by the Engineering Division's management staff. Each proposal was reviewed based on completeness of proposal, staffing, reputation, IDOT certification and the firms ability to provide the prescribed testing services . Based on the above process, the review committee selected TSC as the most qualified candidate. A copy of the Testing Service Agreement with TSC, along with the cost schedule, is attached for your consideration. The cost schedules from the other four testing firms are attached. The cost schedule submitted by TSC is competitive with the other cost schedules submitted. TSC has performed material testing in conjunction with various City projects as a sub-consultant. They also provide material testing within several of the developments within the City. The references checked indicate that TSC has performed satisfactory service for these different projects. Testing Service Agreement eft Testing Service Corp. (TSC) June 16, 1994 Page 2 FINANCIAL IMPACT The invoiced costs of the various testing procedures will be charged to the applicable construction project. Actual costs cannot be determined at this time and will vary depending on the nature and size of the project. LEGAL IMPACT None.
