Agenda Item Text:
Approve change order requests in the not to exceed amount of $32,988 to Concord General Contracting for design changes and an additional 10 days work for completion of the Douglas Government Center Construction Project as outlined in attached Change Order Requests #24 and 28.
Background:
The mezzanine level of the mercantile building in Douglas is supported by a steel beam running the full length of the building north to south. Prior to the start of construction the beam was not fully exposed. The architect and contractor made basic assumptions on how to locate the electrical, plumbing and mechanical under and around this beam. As the beam became fully exposed, it became apparent that some of the basic assumptions were not correct, especially the actual height of the beam. Consequently, the routing of all the systems became a significant challenge. Through a series of meetings with the architect, general contractor, the mechanical engineer and the affected trades, a solution was reached. Change Order #24 makes the necessary changes to all the affected systems so everything fits and rectifies the conflicts of the original design. The value of this Change Order is $26,909. This work lengthened the time necessary to complete the project. Concord generated Change Order #28 wherein they are requesting only the time of the Superintendent be paid. General conditions and other associated costs with contract extensions were not requested. This Change Order is valued at $6,079 and moves the completion out ten (10) additional work days.
The architect, project manager and County staff are in agreement that these changes are necessary and the costs are fair and equitable. An overview of the project will be added at a later date as well a full financial spreadsheet.
