ATTACHMENT B CONSULTANT COST PROPOSAL December 18, 2015 Clark Briggs Sr. Project Administrator Monroe County Engineering Services 1100 Simonton Street Key West, Florida 33040 Project Description: Garrison Bight Bridge Repair - Monroe County/FDOT District Six LAP Project Re: Fee Proposal for the Design Development Letter Report, Bridge Repair Plans, Roadway Reconstruction Plans and Post Design Services Dear Mr. Briggs: Kisinger Campo & Associates (KCA) is pleased to submit this Scope of Services and Fee Proposal for engineering services for the above referenced project. The scope of services will consist of engineering services required to produce a Design Development Letter Report, Bridge Repair Plans, Roadway Reconstruction Plans, Permitting/Environmental Services and associated Post- design Services. The Design Development Letter Report will consider all repair alternatives while also considering the possibility of future replacement. All alternatives will be evaluated based on cost, impacts to traffic, environmental impacts, permitting impacts and service life. A final repair recommendation will be made that fits the needs of the county and is within the proposed FDOT budget. Bridge repair plans and roadway plans will be produced that conform to the approved Design Development Report Alternative. The bridge repairs will likely include spall repair, crack injection, cathodic protection, metalizing, structural steel repair, prestressed beam repair, substructure strengthening and bridge fender repairs. The roadway efforts will likely consist of milling and resurfacing with base reconstruction if warranted. In addition, KCA will provide all environmental and permitting services associated with the proposed repairs and be available to assist with all post-design support. All of the testing and inspections associated with the above repairs is included in the scope of work and the total fee. This includes an asbestos survey, road and bridge corings and an underwater pile and retaining wall inspection to be completed by sub-consultants. We have estimated the level of effort required for all engineering design services and plans production described above. Our total estimated fee amounts to $263,154.12. This fee includes all KCA efforts, sub-consultant tasks, QA/QC, supervision and LAP project coordination. The fee estimate is based on hourly rates which include our expenses and overhead. For a phase breakdown of the lump sum fee, see the following sheet. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to continue our working relationship with you on this project. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions or need any additional information. Best Regards, Jason L. LaBarbera, P.E.
