Recommendations/Options/Action Requested: |
|
|||
|
Authorize the City Manager to execute a construction services agreement with WHP Training Towers for construction of a Training/Burn Tower (CIP# FM1703). |
|
|||
|
Executive Summary: |
On June 12, 2018, the City Commission approved the sole source purchase of a training/burn tower using Government Services Administration (GSA) contract GS-07F-5448P to WHP Training Towers in the amount of $784,881.00.
The June 12 approval enabled the purchase, delivery, and installation of the training/burn tower; however, the GSA contract is not adequate as a construction contract between the City and WHP Training Towers.
Authorization to execute this construction services agreement will enable WHP Training Towers to construct the training/burn tower per City construction requirements. |
