Subject: Resolution to approve Amendment No. 2 to the Miscellaneous Professional Services Agreement with
Astorino, Inc. for miscellaneous Architectural design services.
Purpose of Item:
To authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Miscellaneous Professional Services
Agreement with Astorino, Inc., increasing the agreement by $500,000 from an original $1,000,000 to a not -to -
exceed amount of $1,500,000. Funds are available as needed from various capital project accounts.
Background Information:
The City issued a Request for Qualifications ("RFQ") No. 06-07-010 to secure a qualified outside consultant
to provide Architectural Services ("Services") for miscellaneous projects as needed citywide. The RFQ
selected several firms to provide services for projects citywide. Pursuant to approvals granted by R-07-0379,
enacted July 10, 2007, the City of Miami entered into an agreement with Astorino, Inc. ("Astorino"),
effective December 11, 2007, for Miscellaneous Architectural Services for Miscellaneous projects. Over the
course of the contract, Astorino has provided high quality work, including work performed on the Roberto
Clemente Park Project, B -30172A, and the City Hall Structural Repairs Project, B-30121. In anticipation of
the upcoming economic stimulus package, the Capital Improvements Program will soon require significantly
more architectural services. The current remaining balance is $12,920, which is not sufficient to cover the
cost of design contemplated for projects utilizing the contract. In consideration of the quality of work
performed, CIP recommends increasing the current capacity of the firm. CIP finds that it is in the best
interest of the City to increase capacity on multiple fronts in order to efficiently deliver services as funding
and associated projects arise. Thus, additional miscellaneous architectural services were also solicited in RFQ
#08-09-001, issued October 16, 2008.
This Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement with Astorino, increases the Agreement by a not to exceed amount
of $500,000, from $1,000,000 to a final not -to -exceed amount of $1,500,000, with funds available as needed
from various capital nroiect accounts.
