The City and Project Professional Corporation (PPC) entered into an agreement on
October 5, 2010, through the adoption of City of National City Council Resolution No.
2010-225 wherein PPC agreed to provide on -call general engineering services,
construction inspections and project management services for various Capital
Improvement Projects. The original contract had a not -to -exceed amount of $300,000
and was scheduled to expire on October 6, 2012, with an optional extension of one
year when mutually agreed upon by parties and,
The parties amended the Agreement to increase the not -to -exceed limit as follows:
National City Council Resolution No. 2011- $300,000
143, adopted on July 5, 2011
National City Council Resolution No. 2012- $300,000

National City Council Resolution No. 2012- $300,000
187, adopted on September 4, 2012
Resolution No. 2012-187 also extended the term of the contract for one additional year,
to October 6, 2013.
Staff is requesting that the City Council approve a Fourth Amendment to the On -Call
Agreement to allow for the completion of Project Management and Inspection services
for on -going Capital Improvement Projects. On January 24, 2012, staff informed the
City Council that PPC would provide most of the construction management and
construction inspections needed for Capital Improvement Projects, as the other on -call
engineering consultants would be responsible for project design.
Currently, the City Engineering Department is managing over $30 million in "active"
Capital Improvement Projects. Since October, 2010, PPC's construction management
and inspection services have averaged approximately 12% of the total cost of each
Capital Improvement Project. This is 5% lower than the 17% average as identified in
recent California Multi -Agency CIP Benchmark studies.
Staff is requesting that Council approve a Fourth Amendment to the On -Call Agreement
to provide Project Management and Inspection for various Capital Improvement
Projects as well as extending the Agreement until completion of various Capital
Improvement Projects, but no later than October 5, 2014.
