Amendment to Purchase Order 6051950 with WSP Canada Inc., for Engineering Services for the Rehabilitation and Upgrades of Eight Group Seven Sewage Pumping Stations at Various Locations

Construction services included comprehensive project management, contract administration, engineering support, and full-time inspection services for all eight stations and associated detention tanks. During the design and tender phase, the City directed that the work be divided into four (4) smaller and more manageable construction contracts instead of one (1) large contract. This approach helps mitigate risks related to operational requirements, agency approvals, budget constraints, and design considerations. However, this change requires additional contract administration and full-time site inspection services and reduces some economies of scale. After a thorough review of the remaining work, the construction and post-construction services for Contracts 3 and 4 were removed from scope. The removed work for construction and post-construction services for these contracts will either be issued later as a separate assignment to allow for competitive bidding and to better align with the outcomes of the design activities or be carried out by City staff. Activities related to Contracts 1 and 2 remain unchanged.
