to the Services and to the Project, the Consultant agrees to comply with all such Applicable Laws,
whether now in effect or as may amended or adopted from time to time, and shall further take into
account all known pending changes to the foregoing of which it should reasonably be aware.
Recognizing that the construction of other projects within the City may affect scheduling of the

efficient completion of the Project, without negatively impacting concurrent work by others. The

below. Tasks to be performed under a specific Consultant Service Order may vary from

accuracy and competency of its/their designs, working drawings, plans, technical specifications, or
other technical documents, nor shall such approval and/or decisions be deemed to be an assumption
of such responsibility by the City for a defect, error or omission in designs, working drawings, plans,
technical specifications, or other technical documents; provided, however, that the Consultant shall be
entitled to reasonably rely upon the accuracy and validity of written decisions and approvals furnished
by the City pursuant to this Agreement.

10
CITY APPROVED ROTATIONAL CONSULTANT(MAY 2012)
i
respect, the parties agree as follows:
2.7.1 Term: The term of this Agreement shall commence upon execution by the parties
which shall be the Effective Date referred on page 1 hereof, and shall be in effect for three (3)
years plus two (2), one (1) year renewal options to be exercised at the sole discretion of the

issued for a particular Project.
2.7.2 The Consultant shall perform the Services as expeditiously as is consistent with the

the Work.
2.7.3 The Services will be performed in a manner that shall conform to the Consultant

Service Order completion time, if made necessary because of undue delays resulting from
untimely review taken by the City (or other governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the
Project) to approve the Consultant's submissions, or any other portion of the Services requiring
approval by the City (or other governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Project).
Consultant shall immediately provide the Project Coordinator with written notice stating the
reason for the particular delay; the requested adjustment (i.e. extension) to the Project
Schedule; and a revised anticipated schedule of completion. Upon receipt and review of
Consultant's request (and such other documentation as the Project Coordinator may require),
the Project Coordinator may grant a reasonable extension of time for completion of the
particular work involved, and authorize that the appropriate adjustment be made to the Project
Schedule. The Project Coordinator's approval (if granted) shall be in writing.
2.7.4 Nothing in this Section 2.7 shall prevent the City from exercising its rights to terminate
the Agreement, as provided elsewhere herein.
2.8 Consultant shall use its best efforts to maintain a constructive, professional, cooperative
working relationship with the Project Coordinator, Contractor, and any and all other individuals and/or
firms that have been contracted, or otherwise retained, to perform work on a Project.
2.9 The Consultant shall perform its duties under this Agreement, and under a Consultant Service
11
CITY APPROVED ROTATIONAL CONSULTANT(MAY 2012)
Order, in a competent, timely and professional manner, and shall be responsible to the City for any
failure in its performance, except to the extent that acts or omissions by the City make such
performance impossible.
The Consultant is responsible for the professional quality, technical accuracy, completeness,
performance and coordination of all Services required under the Agreement and, under any
Consultant Service Order issued to the Consultant by the City (including the Services performed by
sub-consultants), within the specified time period and specified cost. The Consultant shall perform the
Services utilizing the skill, knowledge, and judgment ordinarily possessed and used by a proficient
consulting with respect to the disciplines required for the performance of the Services in the State of
Florida. The Consultant is responsible for, and shall represent to City that its work conforms to the
City's requirements, as set forth in the Agreement and in any particular Consultant Service Order
issued to Consultant by the City. The Consultant shall be and remain liable to the City for all damages
to the City caused by the Consultant's negligent acts or errors or omissions in the performance of the
work. In addition to all other rights and remedies, which the City may have, the Consultant shall, at its
expense, re-perform all or any portion of the Services to correct any deficiencies which result from the
Consultant's failure to perform in accordance with the above standards. Neither the City's inspection,
review, approval or acceptance of, nor payment for, any of the Services required under the Agreement
shall be construed to relieve the Consultant (or any sub-consultant) of its obligations and
responsibilities under the Agreement, nor constitute a waiver of any of the City's rights under the
Agreement, or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of the Agreement. The Consultant
and its sub-consultants shall be and remain liable to the City in accordance with Applicable Laws for
all damages to City caused by any failure of the Consultant or its sub-consultants to comply with the
terms and conditions of the Agreement or by the Consultant or any sub-consultants' misconduct,
unlawful acts, negligent acts, errors or omissions in the performance of the Agreement. With respect
to the performance of Services by sub-consultants, the Consultant shall, in approving and accepting
such Services, ensure the professional quality, completeness, and coordination of the sub-consultant's
Services.
2.9.1 Consultant Performance Evaluation: The Consultant is advised that performance
evaluation(s) of the work and/or services rendered throughout this Agreement will be
completed by the City and kept in the City's files for evaluation of future solicitations.
2.10 The City shall have the right, at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, to submit for
review to other consultants (engaged by the City at its expense) any or all parts of the Services and
the Consultant shall fully cooperate in such review(s). Whenever others are required to verify, review,
12
CITY APPROVED ROTATIONAL CONSULTANT(MAY 2012)
or consider any Services performed by Consultant (including, without limitation, contractors, other
design professionals, and/or other consultants retained by the City), the intent of such requirement is
to enable the Consultant to receive input from others' professional expertise to identify any
discrepancies, errors or omissions that are inconsistent with industry standards for design or
construction of comparable projects; or which are inconsistent with Applicable Laws; or which are
inconsistent with standards, decisions or approvals provided by the City under this Agreement.
Consultant will use reasonable care and skill, in accordance and consistent with customary
professional standards, in responding to items identified by other reviewers in accordance with this
subsection. Consultant shall receive comments from reviewers, in writing, including, without limitation
(and where applicable), via a set of marked-up drawings and specifications. Consultant shall address
comments forwarded to it in a timely manner. The term "timely" shall be defined to mean as soon as
possible under the circumstances, taking into account the timelines of the Project Schedule.
2.11 [Intentionally Omitted]
2.12 Consultant agrees that when any portion of the Services relates to a professional service
which, under Florida Statutes, requires a license, certificate of authorization, or other form of legal
entitlement to practice and/or perform such Service(s), it shall employ and/or retain only qualified duly
licensed certified personnel to provide same.
2.13 Consultant agrees to designate, in writing, within five (5) calendar days after receiving a fully
executed Consultant Service Order, a qualified licensed professional to serve as its project manager
(hereinafter referred to as the "Project Manager"). The Project Manager shall be authorized and
responsible to act on behalf of Consultant with respect to directing, coordinating and administrating all
aspects of the Services. Consultant's Project Manager (as well as any replacement) shall be subject
to the prior written approval of the City Manager or his designee (who in this case shall be the Project
Coordinator). Replacement (including reassignment) of an approved Project Manager shall not be
made without the prior written approval of the City Manager or his/her designee (i.e. the Project
Coordinator).
2.13.1 Consultant agrees, within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of written notice from
the City Manager or his/her designee (which notice shall state the cause therefore), to promptly
remove and replace a Project Manager, or any other personnel employed or otherwise retained
by Consultant for the Project ( including, without limitation, any sub-consultants).
2.14 Consultant agrees not to divulge, furnish or make available to any third party(ies), any non-
public information concerning the Services or the Project, without the prior written consent of the City
13
CITY APPROVED ROTATIONAL CONSULTANT(MAY 2012)
Manager or his designee (who shall be the Project Coordinator), unless such disclosure is incident to
the proper performance of the Services; or the disclosure is required pursuant to Florida Public
Records laws; or, in the course of judicial proceedings, where such information has been properly
subpoenaed. Consultant shall also require its employees and sub-consultants to comply with this
subsection.
2.15 The City and Consultant acknowledge that the Services, as described in this Agreement and in
Schedule "A" hereto, do not delineate every detail and minor work task required to be performed by
Consultant to complete the work and/or services described and delineated under a Consultant Service
Order issued to Consultant by the City for a particular Project. If, during the course of performing work,
services and/or tasks on a particular Consultant Service Order, Consultant determines that work
and/or services should be performed (to complete the Project delineated under such Order which is, in
the Consultant's reasonable opinion), outside the level of effort originally anticipated in the Consultant
Service Order (issued for the particular Project), then Consultant shall promptly notify the Project
Coordinator, in writing, and must obtain the Project Coordinator's written consent before proceeding
with such work and/or services. If Consultant proceeds with any such additional work and/or services
without obtaining the prior written consent of the Project Coordinator, said work and/or services shall
be deemed to be a Basic Service under this Agreement and shall also be deemed to be within the
scope of services delineated in the Consultant Service Order (whether or not specifically addressed in
such scope of services). Mere notice by Consultant to the Project Coordinator shall not constitute
authorization or approval by the City to perform such work and/or services. Performance of any such
work and/or services by Consultant without the prior written consent of the Project Coordinator shall be
undertaken at Consultant's sole risk and liability.
2.16 Consultant shall establish, maintain, and categorize any and all Project documents and
records pertinent to the Services and shall provide the City, upon request, with copies of any and all
such documents and/or records. In addition, Consultant shall provide electronic document files to the
City upon completion of the Project.
2.17 The City's participation in the design and construction of the Project shall in no way be deemed
to relieve the Consultant of its professional duties and responsibilities under the Contract Documents
or under Applicable Laws.
2.18 GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS:
The Consultant shall comply with the requirements of Section 255.2575, Florida Statutes, and Chapter
14
CITY APPROVED ROTATIONAL CONSULTANT(MAY 2012)
100 of the City Code, as both may be amended from time to time, addressing applicable Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) compliance requirements.
2.19 SUB-CONSULTANTS:All services provided by sub-consultants shall be consistent with
those commitments made by the Consultant in its Proposal and during the competitive solicitation
selection process and interview. Such services shall be undertaken and performed pursuant to
appropriate written agreements between the Consultant and the sub-consultants, which shall contain
provisions that preserve and protect the rights of the City under this Agreement. Nothing contained in
this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between the City and the sub-consultants.
The Consultant shall not retain, add, or replace any sub-consultant without the prior written approval of
the City Manager or his/her designee, in response to a written request from the Consultant stating the
reasons for any proposed substitution. Any approval of a sub-consultant by the City shall not in any
way shift the responsibility for the quality and acceptability by the City of the services performed by the
sub-consultant from the Consultant to the City. The quality of services and acceptability to the City of
the services performed by sub-consultants shall be the sole responsibility of Consultant. The
Consultant shall cause the names of sub-consultants responsible for significant portions of the
Services to be inserted on the plans and specifications.

decisions with respect to the Services and the Project. However, the Project Coordinator is not

basis", in support of specific right-of-way capital improvement projects. The construction
projects that may be assigned to the Consultant will be mostly Task Order Contracts from the
City's CIP and other City Departments. Also, in the event that the primary firm has a conflict of
interest for a particular task (i.e. when the firm being requested to perform a project task was the
engineer of record or the design criteria professional of the same project), the City may utilize
the secondary and/or tertiary firm. If for any reason, the primary firm's contract is terminated or
fails to perform in a timely manner, the secondary firm will become the primary, and the tertiary
firm the secondary firm. The selected firms are as follows: primary firm, CDM Smith, Inc.;
secondary firm, Atkins North America, Inc.; and the tertiary firm, AECOM Technical Services,
Inc.
Each firm awarded a contract hereby agrees to be placed on a list of professionals that will
provide construction management support where the City may call upon them to perform
professional services for certain City projects, (the Project or Projects), as assigned by the City,
in its sole discretion and judgment. As the need for service arise, the primary firm will be
contacted to provide the necessary professional services according to the negotiated scope of
work and cost. Professional services will be quoted as a not to exceed or lump sum based on
the estimated hours to complete a project and in accordance with the hourly rates set forth in
Schedule "C" of this agreement. The Services will be commenced by the Consultant upon
receipt of a written Consultant Service Order; the Consultant shall sign it and returned it to the
City for execution by the City Manager or his/her designee.
The CONSULTANT shall provide a variety of management services including, but not limited to:
pre-planning, programming, design management, design review, procurement support,
construction management, commissioning, and post-construction support in cooperation with
CIP staff, other city departments, architect-engineers, and Contractors. Professional design
services are not part of the services. All work will be performed based on firm, fixed price task
orders issued, as needed, under the basic contract for services.
