Consider a resolution authorizing the President to execute Supplemental Contract No. 3 to the Contract for Engineering Services with Walker Partners for the BCRUA Phase 1D Water Treatment Plant Expansion. (BCRUA-2025-011)
Body
In December, 2023, the Board approved the initial design contract with Walker Partners for the BCRUA Phase 1D Water Treatment Plant Expansion Project in the amount of $1,375,848, followed by Supplemental Contacts (SC) 1 and 2 for additional design services, and bid and construction phase services, respectively, which increased the total contract to $2,862,689.
The purpose of Supplemental Contract No. 3 is to provide additional construction phase services for the Phase 1D Water Treatment Plant Expansion Project to accommodate Contractor schedule delays. The current contractual Final Completion date is January 20, 2025, and the expected final completion date is around the end of August 2025, a delay of approximately 145 calendar days. The estimated additional construction phase services which will be incurred as a result of this delay is $274,963.
Based on the provisions of Section 00500 General Conditions,Paragraph 7.20, Administrative Charges, it is anticipated that the Owner will back charge the Contractor for these additional construction administration and observation charges as allowed by the Construction Contract. Once this SC is approved, we will begin discussions with the contractor on adjustments to the construction contract to recoup these costs.
Total cost of this supplemental contract is $274,963, increasing the total contract amount to $3,137,652. BCRUA Staff, Legal and the Operations Committee (OC) have reviewed the contract and recommend approval.
Cost: $274,963
