Summary & Background
Scope of Work: The Jacobs Engineering Group was one of six firms selected under the 2021 Standby Engineering Services contract (#21RFP129860K-JAJ) approved by BOC Agenda Item No. 21-0574 on August 4, 2021. The firms under that contract were charged with providing technical assistance and planning and design services for both the water and wastewater systems throughout North and South Fulton County. Jacobs Engineering Group was assigned 30% of the design responsibilities of the Deep Creek Pump Station. Jacobs was unable to fully utilize the amounts awarded to it in the first year of the contract because of the date the project was assigned. In total, an open amount of $160,481.25 was left unutilized. The Jacobs Engineering Group completed the 30% design of the Deep Creek Pump Station in the second year of the contract, but those activities required $29,141.00 more than was authorized in year #2. Public Works is seeking the ability satisfy all outstanding year #2 balances. Approval of this item would mean $268,659.75 of $400,000.00 in authority was expended thru year #2.
