City Council Report
City Council Meeting: September 12, 2017
Agenda Item: 3.A
1 of 4
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Susan Cline, Director, Public Works, Facilities Maintenance
Subject: Contractual Service Agreement for Plumbing Contractor Services
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Award Bid #4281 to Plumbing by Todd R. Marsh, Inc., a California-based
company, and Horn’s Backflow & Plumbing Service, Inc., a California-based
company, for plumbing contractor services;
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with
Plumbing by Todd R. Marsh, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $200,000 for one
year, with two additional two-year renewal options in the amount of $840,808
including an increase of 2% each year, for a total amount not to exceed
$1,040,808 over a five-year period, with future year funding contingent on
Council budget approval; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Horn’s
Backflow & Plumbing Service, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $45,000 for one
year, with two additional two-year renewal options, in the amount of $45,000, on
the same terms and conditions for a total amount not to exceed $225,000 over a
five-year period, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval.
Executive Summary
The City contracts out plumbing work for various City facilities including office locations,
park restrooms, city libraries, Annenberg Beach House and Santa Monica Municipal
Airport properties. This contracted work augments the City’s in-house plumbing team
and is often focused on large-scale and/or urgent plumbing issues, which occur
approximately 40 times per fiscal year. After a formal bid process, seeking up to two
contractors and reviewing the four bids received, staff recommends a split award for the
two best bidders as follows:
Plumbing by Todd R. Marsh (TRM Services) would provide large-scale repairs
for one year, with two additional two-year renewal options for a cumulative not to
exceed amount of $1,040,808 over a five-year period.
Horn’s Backflow & Plumbing Service would provide minor urgent and after-hour
2 of 4
repairs for one year, with two additional two-year renewal options for a
cumulative not to exceed amount of $225,000 over a five-year period.
Background
The City employs four permanent in-house plumbers, including one plumber crew
leader, to provide various plumbing services at City facilities. Typical services provided
by City staff include repairing drain line stoppages, repairing fixtures, replacing water
filters, installing water heaters and performing tenant improvement projects. This team,
however, cannot handle all of the City’s plumbing needs and therefore historically has
contracted out for additional plumbing services.
On January 13, 2015 (Attachment A), staff presented to Council a Contract and As-
Needed Staffing Review: Policy, Practice, Recommendations report. Council approved
contracted staff for plumbing services as part of the comprehensive report; plumbing
services have not changed substantially since that analysis.
On June 23, 2015 (Attachment B), Council authorized the City Manager to exercise the
first year renewal option of Bid #4164 and execute a contractual service agreement with
The Lighthart Corporation for plumbing contractor services in a total amount not to
exceed $550,000 over a three-year period that ended June 30, 2017.
Discussion
While Facilities Maintenance plumbing staff completes the majority of the plumbing work
at City facilities, plumbing contractor services are needed for urgent repairs and large-
scale jobs that require the excavation of water and sewer lines or installation of new
fixtures such as drinking fountains, sinks, toilets, etc.
To ensure the City has access to the best pricing and to keep proposals competitive,
staff recommends splitting the award between TRM Services and Horn’s Backflow &
Plumbing Service. TRM Services would provide plumbing services for large-scale
projects that are often long-term and require specialized licensing and equipment, such
as boiler rehabilitations, water and sewer line replacements, and installation of plumbing
3 of 4
fixtures. Horn’s Backflow would provide plumbing services for minor urgent and after-
hour repairs such as drain cleanouts, storm drain stoppages and fixture leaks. Staff’s
recommendation is to award the bid to two plumbing contractors to allow continuous
and immediate availability as plumbing emergencies often involve sanitation and water
supply issues, which directly impact public health.
Vendor/Consultant Selection
On May 9, 2017, the City published Notices Inviting Bids for citywide plumbing
contractor services that included multi-year renewal options in accordance with City
specifications. The bid was posted on the City's on-line bidding site, and notices were
advertised in the Santa Monica Daily Press in accordance with City Charter and
Municipal Code Section 2.24.100(a). A total of 20 vendors downloaded the bid. Four
bids were received and publicly opened on May 25, 2017, per Attachment C. Bids were
evaluated based on the criteria in SMMC 2.24.072, including price, previous experience,
ability to deliver, quality of product, and compliance with City specifications. Neither
TRM Services nor Horn’s Backflow is the lowest bidder when considering the hourly
labor rates, but both offered competitive pricing, the fastest guaranteed response times
and lowest pricing for renewal options. Moreover, both recommended bidders have
previously provided the City with responsive and satisfactory service. Amgreen
Solutions offered the lowest hourly labor rate, but its pricing is significantly lower than
the established Prevailing Wage rates required by state law, demonstrating non-
compliance and thus its bid was inadmissible. Based on these criteria, staff
recommends TRM Services and Horn’s Backflow as the best bidders.
As both bid awards are subject to prevailing wage rates, the recommended cumulative
not to exceed amount has increased from the previous contracted amount by
approximately 30 percent. The cumulative not to exceed amount increase is also
attributed to the additional two-year renewal option.
Financial Impacts and Budget Actions
The contract to be awarded to TRM Services is for an amount not to exceed
$1,040,808. Funds of $200,000 are available in the FY 2017-18 budget in various
4 of 4
departments and applicable Capital Improvement Program budgets.
The contract to be awarded to Horn’s Backflow is for an amount not to exceed
$225,000. Funds of $45,000 are available in the FY 2017-18 budget in various
departments and applicable Capital Improvement Program budgets.
Future year funding is contingent on Council budget approval.

City Council Report
City Council Meeting: January 13, 2015
Agenda Item: 8-C
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Gigi Decavalles-Hughes, Director of Finance
Subject: Contract and As-Needed and Staffing Review Report
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1) Review and comment on the attached As-Needed and Contracting Staffing Review (Report) and
direct staff regarding prioritization of converting as-needed hours to permanent positions and a
phased process to bring contracted services in-house;
2) Adopt the Policy Guiding Decisions to Hire Contracted or As-Needed Staff for Non-Professional
Services, Attachment D to the Report.
Executive Summary
This staff report summarizes findings of the Contract and As-Needed Staffing Review: Policy, Practice,
Recommendations report prepared by City staff at Council’s direction. The report, included as Attachment A,
examines when various types of staffing are used to provide services, what it would entail to convert as-
needed and contract staffing to in-house permanent staffing, and includes a number of recommendations to convert certain as-needed and contract positions to in-house permanent positions. The report also presents
a policy to guide City service provision practices moving forward.
Background
On August 26, 2014, Council requested that City staff perform a comprehensive study of the City’s
contractual services, including an evaluation of the number of contracted employees and as-needed staff
currently performing services for the City, and options to convert these jobs into permanent full time City
positions. This study follows two previous reports to Council, in January 2007 and January 2009, in which
staff presented an overview of the City’s contracting practices and recommended specific criteria to serve as
the basis for contracting. On both occasions, Council agreed with the criteria to be used in making
decisions about contracting for services.
Discussion
Between September and December 2014, staff researched best practices and gathered internal information
on the City’s contracting and as-needed staffing practices. For internal information, all City departments
provided information on 1) all as-needed staffing and 2) all contractual services over $100,000 annually.
Contract and As-Needed and Staffing - City of Santa Monica
https://www.smgov.net/departments/council/agendas/2015/20150113/s2015011308-C.htm[7/27/2017 9:39:17 AM]
Staff asked departments to identify the current status (what as-needed staff and contractual services the
department uses and why), and what it would take to perform the service differently: with in-house staff, or
with permanent versus as-needed staffing. Finally, staff asked departments to recommend any changes to
current service provision methodology. Finance and other department staff reviewed this information and
identified associated costs.
Report conclusions indicate that staff has continued to limit the use of contracted staff to those services
meeting the established criteria, that the City also uses certain criteria when making the determination to
use as-needed staff, and that the City provides competitive remuneration and strong protections for in-
house and contracted staff.
The Report recommends converting approximately 55,000 as-needed hours to 25.65 new permanent full
time equivalent positions, and bringing services related to five current contracts in-house, which would add
6.0 FTE to permanent staffing. These are areas in which staff tested current service provision against
criteria, and the result indicated a need for change. The Report recommends maintaining remaining as-
needed staff and contracted services in their current state, based on criteria identified in the study and staff
analysis.
The Report concludes with a recommended policy to guide non-professional service delivery decisions, built
on the criteria identified in the study. This policy would provide consistent guidelines for managers and
would reflect Council direction and community values. Its adoption would reinforce the City’s commitment to
fair treatment, transparency, and responsible use of resources.
The following is a summary of the findings:
As-needed. Staff reviewed all possible as-needed conversions, and analyzed each position against criteria
for appropriate as-needed use, listed below:
· Fluctuating or Inconsistent Demand
· Seasonal Work
· Limited Daily Hours
· Fill Vacancies
· Pilot or Limited Term Program
· Unbudgeted Additional Service
Staff found that 47 percent of the total identified as-needed hours did not fit these criteria. Staff recommends
converting these hours to 25.65 full time equivalent staff or 30 positions: 14.0 full time and 16.0 part time.
This change would impact 40-50 current as-needed employees filling these hours. The recommended
positions represent areas in which increasing and consistent operational need makes permanent positions a
better staffing choice. These include customer service for recreational programs, parking meter collections,
maintenance work in City buildings and the Pier, and custodial work on the Beach. Staff estimates the net
cost of these conversions at $1.0 million, of which $0.3 million is in the General Fund.

Contracts. City staff follows the informal guidelines and criteria identified in the 2007 and 2009 review, and
refined for clarity in the current study.
· Workforce Flexibility
· Specialized / Technical expertise
· Space Requirements
· Capital/ Equipment Requirements
· Risk
· Proprietary Control
· Short term / Pilot
The City has 43 contracts over $100,000 annually, for a total of $23.9 million, or approximately 5 percent of
the City’s FY 2014-15 operating budget; the same percentage as in the 2007 / 2009 reports. Staff estimates
the net cost of providing all services in-house at $69.4 million. This cost includes a 371.7 FTE or 19 percent
increase in the City’s permanent work force, and an approximately 90,000 square foot increase in space to
house new staff, vehicles, and other equipment.
Based on a detailed review of each contract with these criteria, staff recommends converting five contracts
providing general maintenance and repair, including bus facilities maintenance, city heating, ventilation and
air conditioning (HVAC) installations and repairs, painting services, graffiti removal, and plan check and tree
inspection services to in-house services. Staff estimates a one-time $0.8 million cost, with an ongoing $0.3
million cost above the current contract amounts for these conversions, of which $0.5 million one-time and
$0.1 million ongoing is in the General Fund. Conversions would include 6.0 new full time equivalent
positions.
Remaining contracts definitively meet criteria for contracted service. Each contract meets one or more of the
established criteria, while the eight largest contracts – which make up approximately 70 percent of the total
dollar value – meet two to four of the criteria. The Report presents detailed analysis for each of these
contracts, and identifies criteria for contracts with lower annual amounts.
Policy. The recommended policy institutionalizes the contracted service and as-needed staff use criteria
presented in the study. These are critical to ensuring that the City maintains its current practices, and that
staff continues to provide City staff opportunities for delivering services if they can do so effectively. A policy
would reinforce current practice, and would clearly state Council priorities and community values to current
and potential City staff, contractors, and the community. Future staff reports recommending contractual
services or as-needed changes would include an analysis of the need based on the policy to be adopted
Implementation / Phasing. Staff recommends converting certain as-needed hours to permanent positions,
and bringing currently contracted services in-house. Implementing changes simultaneously and within a
short period of time would increase the City’s overall budget by $1.8 million in year one ($0.8 million General
Fund; $1.0 million other funds). The changes would also increase permanent staff by 31.7 FTE (10.5 FTE

General Fund; 21.2 FTE positions in all other funds). Ongoing, the changes represent a $1.4 million
increase ($0.5 million General Fund; $0.9 million other funds). Staff recommends a three-year process in
phases to implement recommended changes:
Phase I: Policy Adoption and Direction on Conversions (January 13 Council Meeting). Council
adopts recommended policy and prioritizes as-needed conversion proposals.
Phase II: Partial as-needed conversion (Five-Year Forecast / Midyear Budget) Based on Council
direction, staff would create positions as directed and begin recruitment.
Phase III: Contracted services and remaining as-needed conversion (FY 2015-17 Biennial
Budget). Staff would incorporate additional resource requests, including vehicle, space,
and staffing, in department biennial budget request. Council would consider these in
the context of the new budget and updated financial forecast.
As Council prepares to consider the financial forecast, these resource decisions involve tradeoffs. Other
pressures, including previously-noted capital needs, affordable housing, health care and retirement costs,
emerging needs for fire and non-sworn police staffing, augmentation of workers’ compensation funding, and
public safety communications systems must be considered. Council will view these recommendations in the
context of the City’s overall priorities at its January 27 meeting.
Alternatives
Council could direct staff to review additional areas, or to include greater or fewer conversion
recommendations in either the as-needed or contracted staff areas. These directions would have direct
impacts on service quality, existing contracted or as-needed staff, managers, and resource availability.
Council could not adopt the recommended policy, or could direct staff to revise the policy’s contents. Not
adopting the policy would mean staff would continue to rely on existing informal policy and criteria to guide
service provision decisions.
Financial Impacts & Budget Actions
No immediate budget actions are necessary as a result of this recommendation. Implementing the staff
report recommendations will lead to a one-year $1.8 million cost, with an ongoing $1.4 million ongoing cost.
Following Council direction, staff will include these costs as appropriate in the midyear changes to Council
(January 27, 2015) and in the FY 2015-17 Biennial Budget in May and June 2015.

City Council Report
City Council Regular Meeting: June 23, 2015
Agenda Item: 3-D
1 of 4
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Susan Cline, Interim Director of Public Works
Subject: Contractual Service Agreement for Plumbing Contractor Services
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to exercise the first year renewal option of Bid #4164 and negotiate and execute a contractual service agreement with The Lighthart Corporation, a California-based company, for plumbing contractor services in an amount not to exceed $200,000 for FY 2015-16, with one
additional one-year renewal option in the amount of $200,000, on the same terms and
conditions, for a total amount not to exceed $550,000 over a three-year period, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval.
Executive Summary
The City contracts out plumbing work for various City facilities and properties. In June 2014, the City solicited bids for such services. After reviewing the six bids received, CDMT, Inc. and The Lighthart Corporation were selected to form a pre-qualified vendor list to provide plumbing contractor services during FY 2014-15 in a cumulative amount not to exceed $150,000. Staff recommends exercising renewal options with The
Lighthart Corporation as the best qualified bidder to provide plumbing contractor services for the next two years through June 2017 in an amount not to exceed $200,000 each year, for a total amount not to exceed $550,000 over three years. Background
In June 2014, staff solicited bids for plumbing contractor services that included multi-
year renewal options. In the midst of the selection process, on August 26, 2014, staff
was directed by Council to review contracted services throughout the City and identify
situations where contracted services could be brought in-house. Because continuation
of the service was necessary during the review time; staff structured the agreement to
include a one year term with two one-year renewal options, pending the outcome of the
study and Council action. The bid was awarded by contractual services agreement for
the first year under the authority of the City Manager. On January 13, 2015 (attachment
B), Council agreed with staff’s determination that this service is best contracted out due
2 of 4
to the technical expertise and equipment requirements allowing for staff to exercise the
renewal options. With the renewal options, the total expenditure for the three-year term
is $550,000 and, as a formal bid, requires Council approval.
Discussion
City maintenance staff performs the majority of plumbing work at City facilities (more
than 90% of approximately 1,500 work orders per year), but requires plumbing
contractor services for larger jobs involving excavation (water and sewer line
repairs/replacements), re-piping, and replacement/installation of various equipment
including drinking fountains, restroom fixtures, and water heaters.
Method of Service
Council approved contracted staff for this service as part of the January 13, 2015
Contract and As-Needed and Staffing Review (attachment B). The service has not
changed substantially since that analysis. On February 5, 2015, the Purchasing
Services Manager issued a pre-qualified vendor list including CDMT, Inc. and The
Lighthart Corporation to provide plumbing contractor services through June 2015 not to
cumulatively exceed $150,000. At the time of issuance, the amount was below the
threshold requiring Council authority. This action incorporates the first year award of
$150,000 and two one-year renewal options with The Lighthart Corporation in an
amount not to exceed $200,000 each year, for a three-year total amount not to exceed
$550,000.
Vendor Selection
In June 2014, the City published Notices Inviting Bids to provide plumbing contractor
services as required by Facilities Services responsible for plumbing repairs in
accordance with City specifications. The bid was posted on the City's on-line bidding
site, and notices were advertised in the Santa Monica Daily Press in accordance with
City Charter and Municipal Code provisions. A total of 132 vendors were notified, 22
vendors downloaded the bid (Bid #4164). Six bids were received and publicly opened
on June 20, 2014 per attachment A. Bids were evaluated based on the criteria in
3 of 4
SMMC 2.24.072, including price, previous experience, capacity and skill, ability to
deliver, quality of product, and compliance with City specifications and scope of work. A
scope of work was provided for the removal of a Santa Monica Swim Center water
storage tank as a comparison tool.
The Lighthart Corporation provided the best bid pricing for removal of the Swim Center
water storage tank and has provided the City with satisfactory plumbing contractor
services at reasonable prices for several years. CDMT, Inc. provided the third best bid
pricing for removal of the Swim Center water storage tank and has previously provided
the City with satisfactory services as a general contractor. CDMT, Inc. was
recommended to be selected as a pre-qualified vendor for FY 2014-15, but over the
course of three plumbing jobs required additional instruction and corrections by City
staff to achieve satisfactory completion. Staff verified with the Contractors State
License Board that the license for The Lighthart Corporation is current, active and in
good standing. Based on these criteria, The Lighthart Corporation is recommended as
the best qualified bidder to provide plumbing contractor services through June 2017.
Financial Impacts and Budget Actions
The contract to be awarded to The Lighthart Corporation is for an amount not to exceed
$550,000. Funds in the amount of $200,000 are included in the FY 2015-17 Proposed
Biennial Budget in various department budgets and applicable Capital Improvement
Program budgets. Future year funding is contingent on Council budget approval.
