Summary: Presented by: Mr. Richard Boyd, Interim Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education approve additional scope of work for E-SPLOST V Project 32235: Redan MS to include roof replacement as needed as well as the approval of a related amendment to the architectural services contract for this project.
Why: To provide the Redan MS facility with further needed improvements. The additional scope of work was recommended by the project’s design professionals and/or requested by DCSD Facilities. The requested amendment to the architectural services contract for this project would cover the expected costs of both the additional scope of work as well as cost escalation associated with the original scope of work for this project.
Details: The E-SPLOST V Project 32235: Redan MS currently has a scope of work which includes “Major building system replacement with emphasis on plumbing fixtures”.
It is requested that the scope of work be expanded to include “...roof replacement and HVAC system replacement.”
It is also requested that an amendment to the architectural services contract with Goodwyn Mills Cawood for this project be approved. This amendment would cover the additional design cost associated with the additional scope of work as well as cost escalation associated with the original project scope of work.
Financial impact: A budget adjustment of $216,294.00 will be necessary to cover the additional cost of the amendment to the architectural services contract with Goodwyn Mills Cawood.
This budget adjustment would move $216,294 from E-SPLOST V Project 60235: Program Contingency (cost code: SP5MANG .60235.PRGCONTIN) to E-SPLOST V Project 32235: Redan MS (cost code: SP5FACCON .32235.ARCHITECT).
