This agreement covers inspection services for the construction of the Decatur Mass <br /> Transit Building. Until this time the City has been providing the inspection of the construction.

The City currently does not have the available staff <br /> to complete the inspection and other scheduled work. <br /> The City was required to advertise for proposals for the inspection services,because the Mass Transit <br /> project is being funded through the Federal government. The City received proposals from WVP <br /> Corporation and BWC. Three City staff inembers evaluated the proposals based on the respective firm's <br /> qualifications, similar inspection projects and the ability to meet the inspection schedule. City staff <br /> chose the proposal from BWC based upon their knowledge and experience inspecting similar projects. <br /> After BWC's proposal was chosen, the City entered into negotiations with BWC to determine a cost <br /> of the inspection services in accordance with Federal regulations. An agreement was arrived upon and <br /> was forwarded to the Illinois Department of Transportation for approval. The City has recently received <br /> approval from the Illinois Department of Transportation. <br /> The estimated cost to have BWC rovide the ins ection services are $19 629.12. The estimate is <br /> P P , <br /> based on 16 hours of inspection per week for the remainder of the project.
