On the agenda

As the city filed it

The purpose of this report is to request authority from the General Government Committee to amend purchase orders related to the HVAC rehabilitation and upgrades being carried out at the R.C. Harris and Island Water Treatment Plants (WTP). These amendments are required for additional construction administration services to accommodate the revised construction schedules submitted by the general contractor. Since the start of construction, the schedule was extended several times due to change orders issued to address added scope related to unforeseen site conditions and associated design changes.

The schedule was further impacted by constraints caused by COVID-19 and longer equipment delivery timelines due to the global supply chain disruption. Additional scope was required to address unforeseen site conditions (e.g., structural modifications to site facilities, natural gas piping, and asbestos testing and abatement) and additional efforts to solve issues related to heritage site requirements at the R.C. Harris. The amendments requested total $1,642,990 (net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) and would increase the current value of two (2) purchase orders.
