Analysis

On August 16, 2016 the City Council awarded the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) contract to Modern Contractors for pre-construction services in the amount of $1,000.  This award provided the CMAR services including development of project estimates, preliminary construction schedules, value engineering and constructability review during the Design Phase. 

 

The current Change Order/Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $5,090,953 represents the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the scope of work currently defined in the Quorum Architects Construction Documents Package as competitively bid by Subcontractors to Modern Contractors.  The $5,090,953 GMP was achieved through a collaborative effort between City staff and construction personnel to value engineer over $216,000 worth of project cost with no negative impacts to construction quality or project functionality and appearance.  Costs above and beyond the Modern Contractors portion of the project include previously approved design fees, surveying requirements and geotechnical testing costs ($419,500)  along with an owner-provided furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) allowance($91,500), all of which are covered within the overall approved project budget of $5,857,400.

 

All items will be incorporated into the current Modern Contractors contract for a revised total contract amount of $5,091,953.
