Request by the Office of the Purchasing Agent that the County Judge execute an amendment to an agreement with Brinkley Sargent Wiginton Architects, Inc. in the additional amount of $37,000 for additional professional engineering services required to complete the project for professional architectural and/or engineering services for the design of expansion for the Harris County Sheriff’s Office Training Academy Facility for the Office of the County Engineer (240306), MWBE Contracted Goal: 19.5%.

The Sheriff's Office Training Academy needs more space. The county hired architects and engineers to design that expansion, but extra engineering work came up during the project. This amendment covers that added cost so the design can be finished.

This is a contract amendment — a formal change to an existing agreement. It adds $37,000 to the deal with Brinkley Sargent Wiginton Architects, Inc., bringing additional professional engineering services into the project scope.

The overall project file number is 240306. The contract also carries a 19.5% goal for minority- and women-owned business participation (MWBE).
