INFORMATION/BACKGROUND Southeast Denton Package – B (SED-B) contains the remaining 49 street segments associated with the 2019 Street Reconstruction Bond Program in Southeast Denton. The scope of the project includes 21,000 linear feet of roadway reconstruction, 14,600 linear feet of water main replacement, 7,900 linear feet of wastewater main replacement, and various sidewalk improvements. Capital Projects is focusing on a holistic neighborhood approach to minimize construction impacts and enhance coordination during the delivery of the 2019 Bond Program. This project is being delivered as the first Construction Manager at Risk (CM@R) project in Denton for horizontal construction. This process leans heavily on collaboration between the City, design engineer, and CM@R during the design process to allow for the best schedule coordination, cost modeling, and community engagement for any delivery method. Statements of qualifications were sent to the City’s prequalified list of engineers requesting experience designing projects using alternative delivery methods, specifically CM@R. Upon ranking the received information, staff found Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. to have the most relevant CM@R experience, has current CM@R work in progress in Texas, and available staff to complete the project within the schedule. Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. has provided design and construction phase services for many projects similar in size and cost to SED-B. Based on Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.’s knowledge, project team experience, and availability, staff has selected Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. as the best choice for SED-B design.
