Description

Motion to approve Contract Modification No. 1 for roadway condition assessment services with RoadBotics, Inc. in the amount of $24,990.00.

The original contract was for roadway condition assessment services for 350 miles of City roadways. This modification is needed to complete an additional 350 miles of City streets and roadways.

The original contract was approved on a small purchase agenda in June 2018 in the amount of $24,990.00. This additional contract will bring the annual total awarded funds to Roadbotics above $25,000.00, which requires City Council approval.

Roadbotics is a company that utilizes a vehicle outfitted with data collection cameras and technology to assess the conditions of streets and roadways. Its machine-learning technology analyzes the data and provides a map detailing the results of the assessment. This information will help the City create an informed, targeted, and efficient roadway resurfacing plan.

It is recommended that the City approve the contract with Roadbotics as this vendor successfully completed the initial 350 miles of City roadways in August 2018. This contract is a sole source because this company is the only known supplier of this technology.
