This is a Proposal Award Recommendation document from the City of Madison, Wisconsin Finance Department and Parks Division for consulting services related to Warner Park Southeast Recreation Area Improvements. The City of Madison Parks Division solicited proposals from qualified professional consultant teams to provide design services and construction oversight for the project. The RFP number 15007-0-2026-TJ was issued with a proposal submission deadline of March 16, 2026, and the City received four proposals from qualified firms: KL Engineering, Point of Beginning Inc., Snyder & Associates, and Wyser Engineering. The contract was awarded to KL Engineering, which scored highest in the evaluation with 83.4 out of 100 points. The initial contract term runs from April 2026 through October 2027, with no renewal options included. The project encompasses three distinct phases: Phase 1 includes general coordination, site investigation, public engagement, and final design development; Phase 2 covers preparation of 75% and 100% plans, specifications, and cost estimates, permitting applications, and bidding preparation; and Phase 3 encompasses the construction phase with milestone-based completion tracking at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% stages.

The award amount for the initial contract term is $169,660.00, representing the total potential award with no additional renewals. The evaluation panel conducted independent assessments based on pre-established criteria with a maximum of 100 points distributed across Technical (65 points), Cost (30 points), and Local Vendor Preference (5 points). KL Engineering achieved 56.7 points in the Technical section and 21.7 points in the Cost section while qualifying for the Local Vendor Preference award of 5 points, though this preference did not influence the final outcome. The award is contingent upon budget approvals including City Council introduction on April 21, 2026, Board of Public Works approval on April 22, 2026, Finance Committee review on April 27, 2026, and final City Council adoption on May 5, 2026. Current year commitment is $120,000 with a next year commitment of $49,660, drawn from GL Account 140070-54645-00000 and Project Account 15663-51-130, with current budget available matching the total award amount of $169,660.
