MOTION

 

Upon recommendation of Marqaicha Welch, Operations Resource Manager, the Board of Water Commissioners for the City of Detroit, Water and Sewerage Department authorizes the Director to approve Amendment 1 for DWSD Contract 6002881 with Nearmap Inc., to continue providing Annual Aerial Imagery Services of the City of Detroit - requesting to add $224,000.00 and extend the term by a period of 3 years, for a new total amended contract not-to-exceed amount of $464,000.00.  This also authorizes the Director to take such other action as may be necessary to accomplish the intent of this vote.

 

BACKGROUND / JUSTIFICATION

 

In an effort to update and maintain an accurate impervious surface database of the City of Detroit, DWSD requires a contract to provide impervious surface mapping and classification on an annual                  basis, which is to be based on aerial imagery captured each year using "leaf off' and "no snow" conditions. Aerial imagery is provided for under a contract with Nearmap Inc.

 

This contract is for aerial imagery capture services to support billable impervious acreage assessments for property parcels within the City of Detroit.  The scope of work under this contract provides professional imagery capture services up to three (3) times per calendar year (spring, summer, fall); access to historical imagery sets; and allows the use of the spring image on public-facing viewers.  DWSD can utilize three images per year but reserves the right to increase or decrease the quantity at its sole discretion.

 

The proposed Amendment No 1 is requesting additional funds and extending the term. This contract amendment will allow for the consistency of the data and multiple image captures on a multi-year contract.

 

PROCUREMENT METHOD

 

The solicitation was competitively solicited under Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 468282. It was advertised and posted on the Michigan Inter-Governmental Trade Network (MITN) website for 36 calendar days. No addenda were posted. Notices were sent to 52 firms subscribing    to the relevant NIGP code(s), of which 21 firms downloaded the RFP document. Four proposals     were received.

 

Each of the four (4) proposals were first verified as responsive and responsible. An evaluation committee reviewed the technical proposals and scored them in accordance with the DWSD Procurement Policy.  Then the committee reviewed and scored the cost proposals. Nearmap was the highest ranked Proposer and was recommended for the contract award. The contract was also approved at Mayoral review on 3/10/21.

 

The DWSD IT Department is requesting Amendment No. 1; requisition #499384 was submitted and approved on 8/19/22. It is requesting an additional three years and an additional $224,000 in contract funding, for a new not-to-exceed contract amount of $464,000 and a new expiration date of 3/13/27.

 

Nearmap’s clearances are expired; they have submitted a renewal request.  A formal amended contract document will be routed for   signatures. Per DWSD procurement protocol and past precedence, no further approvals are required.
