Background:The Augusta Utilities Department (AUD) needed to contract with
an engineering testing firm to perform soils and materials testing
for capital improvements projects in Augusta-Richmond

was rated as the firm best conforming to the criteria established.
Analysis:Approving this contract will allow CSRA Testing and
Engineering, to enter into a contract with Augusta-Richmond
County to perform applicable soils and materials testing as for
capital improvements projects for AUD.
Financial Impact:Funds for this work are available in account number 509043490-
5212999/80199999-5212999
Alternatives:No alternatives are recommended.
Recommendation:The proposal from CSRA Testing and Engineering Company was
considered fair and reasonable by the department, therefore we
recommend the Commission award the Soils and Materials
Testing contract to CSRA Testing and Engineering in the amount
of $49,315.00.

Department:Augusta Utilities Department

Department in the amount of $1,500,000.00 for execution by

Background:The previously approved Task Order Program is to allow several
responsive and qualified contractors to provide installation,
maintenance, and/or repairs to the water and sewer infrastructure.
The Utilities Department is requesting a Task Order Program
increase in the amount of $1.5 Million due to the impacts of
meeting the project deadlines of Ft. Gordon and to keep up with
the repair & replacement issues of decaying infrastructure
throughout Augusta-Richmond County. The contractors will
provide all tools, labor, material, and equipment to perform and
complete all task orders under three (3) task order classifications:
General Maintenance Task(s), Pre-Planned Task(s), and
Emergency Work, as set forth in RFQ #11-130 Task Order
Program for Infrastructure for the City of Augusta.
Analysis:AUD has evaluated the current and active Task Order Program
and determine that a funding increase to the Task Order Program
is needed to accomplish the tasks imposed by the increased Ft.
Gordon workload and the repair & replacement issues of
infrastructure throughout Augusta-Richmond County.
Financial Impact:The funding increase requested for this program is $1,500,000.00.
These funds are available from account 507043490-5425410 /
88886666-5425410

Department ability to expedite the current projects of Fort Gordon
