Agenda 06/09/2020 Item #16A13 (Work Order for #14-6213-137 w/Quality Enterprises USA)06/09/2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a $523,550 Work Order to Quality Enterprises USA, Inc., under
Request for Quotation (“RFQ”) # 14-6213-137 for Underground Utility Contracting Services for
Lely Area Branch 11 Channel Restoration (Project No. 51101) and authorize the necessary budget
amendments.
OBJECTIVE: To restore a section of a contributory channel within the Lely Area’s stormwater
management system by reshaping the bank and bottom and placing rip-rap to prevent future erosion.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Lely Area Stormwater Improvement Project (“LASIP”), which began in the
1990s and was finished in 2017, encompasses approximately 11,000 acres of land, improved 22.8 miles
of canals, and added or replaced various weirs, structures, and pipes that had been needed for many years.
Not all stormwater facilities, however, were included as part of the initial design and permitting efforts
that started in the late 1980s. During construction of LASIP, which occurred from 2006 through 2017,
staff observed small but significant areas of concern, as construction progressed and old facilities were
exposed, including Branch 11. This channel has a sharp turn in it that has caused scouring over the years
during heavy flows, indicated by erosion on one side of the bank with silt deposits on the other.
The proposed work under this Work Order is to address the disfiguration of Branch 11. The bank will be
reshaped, the bottom will be leveled out, and rip-rap will be placed on the shore of the scoured side to
prevent future erosion. In addition, the work will involve removing some large nuisance vegetation
within the drainage easement.
On February 20, 2020, the Capital Project Planning, Impact fees, and Program Management Division
released RFQ # 14-6213-137 to the six contractors on County Agreement Number 14-6213 for
Underground Utility Contractors. Staff only received quotes from two of the six contractors by the
March 12, 2020 deadline. Staff followed up to inquire why the other four vendors did not submit qu otes
and discovered that one of the contractors was too busy to prepare a quote in time to submit, another was
unable to prepare a quote because he was out of town, and the other two offered no response for their
non-submittal.
