Body
BACKGROUND
The City of Dallas, Department of Aviation, sought expressions of interest from professional architecture/engineering/planning firms to provide on-call airport planning and programming services for the Dallas Airport System (DAS) in September 2021. Ricondo & Associates, Inc. was selected as the most qualified proposer.
This action will authorize a three-year consultant contract with Ricondo & Associates, Inc., with two one-year renewal options at the City’s discretion, to be the principal external source of airport planning expertise and to provide analytical assistance to DAS leadership. Services to be covered include various airport related planning tasks and technical analyses using a task order format. Many of the anticipated tasks will be oriented towards the phasing and implementation of projects in the Capital Improvement Program. The selected on-call consultant team will also be tasked to analyze, assess, and advise on development initiatives from Master Plan and airport business perspectives.
The task-based assignments will range from broad, conceptual studies to detailed project definition and programming for the implementation of specific projects. The Department of Aviation also expects to task the consultant with occasional on-site support for strategic reports on data, site geometries, graphics, and illustrations.
A similar three-year contract was authorized by Council in February 2018. The term of the original contract expired in September 2021. Due to slowdown related to the pandemic, substantial amount of funding was left in the contract at the time of its expiration. The contract period was extended administratively with no additional funding allocations to March 31, 2022. The proposed contract will replace the existing contract once approved.
PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS)
On February 28, 2018, City Council authorized a consultant contract with Ricondo & Associates, Inc. for on-call airport planning and advisory services for the Dallas Airport System by Resolution No. 18-0326.
