Council reviews post-project evaluation of Reservoir 18 progressive design–build project
Summary
Public works engineer Ross Horton briefed council on a state-required post-project evaluation for Reservoir 18 and the pump station work, calling progressive design–build effective for this complex project while noting minor contract-language improvements for future projects.
Ross Horton, senior project engineer with Tigard Public Works, presented a post-project evaluation of the Reservoir 18 and pump station improvement project, explaining the review is a state requirement for projects delivered with an alternative delivery method.
Horton described Reservoir 18 as Tigard's first progressive design–build project and said the method achieved city goals while maintaining a fixed price. He said lessons learned include clarifying contract language to better differentiate what counts as project savings versus contractor charges. Council asked whether the review requested any new council action; Horton said the item was informational and no findings or approvals were required because the project had been previously approved in 2021. The consent agenda containing this review was adopted unanimously.
