ISSUE
Amendment #2 to the Consultant Agreement with PACE Engineers, Inc. is needed to add partial
engineering inspection services for the Tukwila Lift Station #5 Retrofit construction phase.
BACKGROUND
The City executed a consultant agreement with PACE Engineers, Inc. in 2023 for design services for
the Tukwila Lift Station #5 Retrofit project. The original contract amount was $366,277.30. As
construction commences, additional engineering inspection support is required to supplement City staff
resources during the first half of the construction period. We are anticipating the availability of the City
inspector for the latter portion of the project.
DISCUSSION
Amendment #2 will authorize PACE Engineers, Inc. to perform site inspection and project management
services related to the construction of the Lift Station #5 Retrofit. This includes observation and
documentation of demolition, piping, structures, electrical work, wet well and meter vault installation,
site improvements, and project testing and closeout preparation. PACE will provide a field inspector for
approximately 50 days at 8 hours per day, including limited support from technical staff and
subconsultants. The amendment includes 466 hours of labor and necessary expenses.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This amendment adds $99,100.00 to the contract, increasing the total not-to-exceed amount from
$366,277.30 to $465,377.30. Funding for this work is available in the Sewer Fund.

•The existing Construction Administration contract had a budget of $14,832.00 for
Construction inspections and site visits and $10,660.00 for project closeout. The total of
$25,492.00 remains from this original contract amount for construction administration.
EXCEPTIONS
•Special inspections are not included under this agreement and may only occur with the
Owner’s approval and at the Contractor’s expense.
FEE
Client agrees to pay PACE for the above services on the basis of an hourly labor rate plus
reimbursable expenses, not to be exceeded without written authorization from the Client.
Specifically, PACE will invoice the Client for the additional services of project inspection as
mentioned above.
For inspection services, we are requesting a change order of $99,150.00. This includes the
tasks and deliverables as mentioned in this amended services agreement, approximately
466 hours of effort on a time-and-expense basis. This will provide site project management
and inspection funding from the start of mobilization until the City inspection staff take over at
approximately 50 days into the project. Note that $25,492.00 remains from the construction
administration contract for inspection services and project closeout. This amount will be
applied to the requested inspection services amount for the duration of the contract.
The subtotal for this scope amendment is $99,150.00. The total amended budget would
increase from $366,277.30 (original contract plus construction administration contract) to
$465,427.30.
All services provided within the scope of this ASA will be performed as per the terms and
conditions approved under the above-mentioned base contract for the project, unless stated in
the scope within this document. If you have any questions, require any additional information, or
