Redevelopment of St. Lawrence Market North - Construction Contract Award and Amendment to Project Capital Budget

This report further advises on the results of Tender Call Number 319-2018 and to request authority to award a contract to the recommended bidder, The Buttcon Limited/The Atlas Corporation Joint Venture, in the amount of $91,800,000 net of all taxes and charges ($93,415,680 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) for the supply of all materials, equipment, labour, and supervision necessary for the construction of the new St. Lawrence Market North Building. The report also requests that City Council grant authority to amend Purchase Order Number 6034062 issued to Adamson Associates Architects for an additional amount of $560,142 net of all taxes and charges, revising the current Purchase Order value from $5,260,000 to $5,820,142 net of all taxes and charges ($5,922,576 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries), for ongoing contract administration services and expertise. Adamson Associates Architects were required to assist in the updating of the contract documentation in order to facilitate the re-tendering of the project and, as a result, the remaining value of the contract was used to complete that task. The requested amendment will restore sufficient value to the contract to ensure that contract administration services are available for the duration of the construction project. Approval of the requested budget amendment and the award of the contract will allow construction to begin in the third quarter of 2019, with the Market expected to be completed and operational in 2022. Once complete, the new Market will transform the historical site into a modern public space that will service both residents and visitors alike.
