Additional Backup Information:
Due to the demolition of multiple buildings to make way for taxiway expansion and other expansion projects, the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport requires storage space for non-hazardous materials. An existing but unused parking lot was identified as the site due to the existing impervious cover and proximity to the Airport’s Central Maintenance Facility on Golf Course Road. The Airport opted for a storage solution of 14 shipping containers and pre-engineered, pre-manufactured roof systems that tie the shipping containers together.
According to state statute, the City must obtain approval from the Council for any job order assignment exceeding $500,000. This request is for the Council’s authorization to negotiate and execute one Job Order Assignment from the Job Order Contract program for an amount not to exceed $700,000, inclusive of contingency.
Job Order Contracting is a highly responsive contracting method that allows for services where the work is for indefinite time and indefinite quantities and where job order assignments are awarded substantially based on pre-described and pre-priced tasks. Work may consist of facility maintenance, repair, alteration, renovation, remediation, or minor construction of City facilities.
If the contract is not approved, the Airport must identify another strategy to provide storage space for the materials.
