Summary
The board approved a series of change orders (including schedule and quantity adjustments), professional services agreements for residential street reconstruction and bridge inspections, and amendments to inspection-service contracts. Most items passed by voice vote with little discussion.
The Indianapolis Board of Public Works on Aug. 13 approved a range of contract actions including change orders, final acceptances, new professional services agreements and amendments that the Department of Public Works said adjust quantities, add inspection services or finalize projects.

The board also approved final and final-acceptance change order No. 3 for PA-25-003 (Pogue Run Veil phases 2 and 3C) with Morphy Construction Inc., reflecting a decrease of $49,264.01 to a final contract amount of $3,610,659.98 and adding 303 days to substantial and final completion dates; an adjustment to CL-16-069 (small structure replacement at 5030 North Mueller Road) with Edge Construction LLC decreasing the contract by $50,851.87 to a new total of $444,050.83; and a decrease to ED-25-213 (Monon Development phase 2) with Reith Riley in the amount of $158,187.10 to a new total of $2,793,109.08.
On professional services, the board authorized ENG-25-004 (on-call residential-reconstruction inspection) with Crossroad Engineers PC not to exceed $2,500,000 and two bridge-inspection agreements: BR-25-179A (pedestrian bridge inventory) with Aegis BLN USA not to exceed $288,200, and BR-25-178H (Marion County bridge inspections) with USI Consultants Inc. not to exceed $2,452,244.15. The board also approved amendment No. 2 to BR-24-113 (West Washington over Little Eagle Creek) with Wolper Inc., increasing the agreement by $236,236.05 to $727,059.95 for additional inspection work; and amendment No. 2 to ST-31-059 (White River Innovation District Infrastructure Project) with Butler, Fairman, and Cipher Inc., increasing that agreement by $909,851.74 for a new not-to-exceed total of $3,328,106.51.

Why it matters: These routine contract actions adjust project schedules, finalize completed work and add inspection capacity for ongoing city street and bridge work. Most actions were presented by DPW engineering staff with staff recommendations and were approved by voice vote.
