Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify and increase a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with Miles McClellan for project management services.
The original contract was authorized by Ordinance No. 1126-2010, passed July 21, 2010, for project management services and was subsequently modified by Ordinance No. 1129-2011, passed June 25, 2011 and again by Ordinance No. 1921-2012, passed October 3, 2012, and again by Ordinance No. 1747-2013, passed July 25, 2013. A modification of the contract is necessary to allow for continued project management services. This contract was bid and established with the understanding that it could be modified from time to time with the authority of City Council.
Due to the fact that Miles McClellan was awarded the original contract, an ongoing modification with Miles McClellan is the logical and most expeditious option for addressing the project management services. Involving another firm at this point would disrupt continuity of several ongoing projects and could lead to logistical problems and the possibility of errors. Prices already established in the contract were used to determine the cost of this modification.
Emergency action is requested so that project management services necessary to perform work associated with the renovation and repair of various city building projects can be completed in a timely manner.
Miles McClellan Construction Company Contract Compliance No. 31-0987415, expiration date March 31, 2015.
Fiscal Impact: The cost of this modification is $100,000.00. Funding is available in the Construction Management Capital Improvement Fund.
